Attention Soldiers,

The spirit of Oktoberfest has arrived to Combat Arms, and somehow transformed all of our HiSec cases into kegs of what is clearly a non-alcoholic beverage!
From now through October 7th, players in-game will be able to collect all new, Oktoberfest-styled HiSec cases, which are going to be dropping twice as often as normal! But that's not the only way you'll be able to get them!
The Black and White Oktoberfest HiSec Cases will now also appear on the Roulette Wheel! You'll have a 1 in 6 chance of getting a HiSec Case this way!
Not enough? Then just be the MVP! Earning the MVP in any of the following categories will instantly award you a White Oktoberfest HiSec!
  • Skull Buster
  • Fragmentor
  • Public Enemy
  • The Cure
  • Untouchable
  • Medic!
  • Endurance
Similarly, earning MVP in any of the below categories will get you a Black Oktoberfest HiSec!
  • Contagious
  • B.R.A.S.S.
  • War Hero
  • Spy Hunter
  • Flag Defender
  • Bandit
  • That's My Flag
  • Quartermaster
Of course, you've gotta open those cases, and that's where the cases come into play! From now through October 7th, all Gray HiSec Keys are 50% off, and they're the only way to open the White Oktoberfest HiSec Cases!
  • 1x Gray HiSec Key: 950 GP
  • 7x Gray HiSec Key: 4,650 GP
  • 15x Gray HiSec Keys: 7,850 GP
The Black HiSec Keys might not be discounted, but you'll get a special gift with every one you purchase: A free Supply Case G36-N! These supply cases instantly reward a G36E, G36KE, G36E Valkyrie or G36C for 1, 7, 30 or 90 days!
Get in the Bavarian spirit and keep your eyes open for those HiSec Cases!

Attention Soldiers,

As you may be aware, the Daily Jobs have not been properly functioning in Combat Arms. On some servers, the correct Daily Jobs will display but cannot be completed, while other servers will display the wrong Daily Jobs entirely. We do apologize for this problem.
Our developers are currently working on a fix for these issues, which we intend to be released within the next week. However, in order to stop any server-side issues that could crop up as a result of the errors, we have elected to disable the Daily Jobs until the Hotfix is deployed.
As for the Workaholic event, we will be adjusting the time frame for the rounds based on when Daily Jobs regain functionality for all players.
We apologize for the inconvenience, and will update you when we have more information.
Thank you,
--Combat Arms Command--

Operation: Contract Killer is Underway!

Make sure those weapons are clean, because Daily Jobs are back, and NPCs need you to do their dirty work for them! Being a contract killer does have its benefits. Cosmetic Items have also arrived to change the appearance of your favorite gear. You no longer have to choose between looks and stats – now you can have both!
If your arsenal is looking a little sparse, check out the reliable QBZ-95 Assault Rifle, the beefed-up Mac-10 SE Submachine Gun, and the Forgeable MP40. See everything Operation: Contract Killer has to offer below!

Daily Jobs Revamp

Daily Jobs have been revamped and reintroduced. Various NPCs need your assistance, and you’ll be able to complete jobs for them in exchange for rewards. The jobs you take are now entirely up to you. The shady characters offering these jobs want to keep the blood off their hands, but that should be no concern for you.

Cosmetic Items

It’s always been hard to strike the perfect balance between form and function, but with new Cosmetic Items, you’ll be able to customize your items to look great and perform well at the same time! Cosmetic Items provide a new look without altering your items’ stats, or even just hides the item from view altogether. If you’ve got some great gear that just doesn’t have that badass look you’re going for, use Cosmetic Items to bring it up to your standards.

Each Cosmetic item has three colors to it, although you can only own one of them at a time. There are also four other Cosmetic items: Transparent Headgear, Transparent Facemask, Transparent Backpack and Full Transparency. Each of these Cosmetic items will hide the designated slot, with Full Transparency hiding all equipped gear

The MP40 was the submachine gun of choice in Germany during World War 2. Also known as the Schmeisser, it is a reliable workhorse on the battlefield. Forged from 7x FH - Replica Pallets and the MAC-10.

Other Changes

Bug Fixes
  • Spawn points and goals are no longer corrupted when playing Seize and Secure on Kill Creek.
  • Fireteam Matches now block intended grenades (Smoke\Flash) and allow useful grenades (Gas\Incendiary).
  • Goal setting for rooms no longer resets to default if the map is changed.
  • The map Vertigo has been modified to address performance concerns.

  • The map Dark Forest has been modified to address performance concerns.
  • The map Oil Rig (in Quarantine Regen only) has been modified to address performance concerns.
  • Corrected text issue for map\mode information when loading into One Man Army on Showdown.
  • Corrected alignment of suppressors attached to G18 Pistol.

  • Removed unintended gap of time at beginning of Magpul FMG-9's reload sequence.
  • Magpul FMG-9 damage stat has been reduced to match in-game performance. The actual damage of the Magpul FMG-9 has not changed.
  • HP now changes to red 'alert' status at 30 HP instead of 3 HP while piloting a robot in NEMEXIS Labs.
Balance Changes
  • Corrected Galil ACE damage in-game not being high enough to match damage stat in shop.
Other Game Changes
  • Quick Start reduced to only vital search functions for better odds of successfull matches.
  • Squirt Gun no longer Forgable; use Roulette to turn Battery FH materials into Battery Pallets and forge the Alien Gun!
  • MYST-G Updated to include the new Mac-10 SE.
  • Melee attacks will now play pain sound FX when an attack strikes another player.




Attention Soldiers,

Well, its about time for Summer to fade into the past and for Autumn to take its place...
...well, assuming that the sun gets the message and cools down a bit!
In any case, with the coming of hopefully-cooler months comes the re-release of Combat Arms' powerful Autumn weapons, the Autumn G36E Valkyrie and the Autumn LAW! From now through September 26th, both of these weapons will be 20% off for all durations, including, for the first time ever, Permanent duration on the Autumn LAW!

Get these mighty seasonal weapons before the seasons change once again!

You’ve got to ask yourself one question: “Do I feel lucky?” Well, do ya, soldier? Then...

Set your sight on epic items like the permanent Orthus, Legion, Azazel—even 1 million GP, and pull the trigger on Soldier’s Fortune to watch it reveal your three prizes. 
Happy with what you won? Then test your fortune further and try the Double Shot
Double Shot will double one of the three items you won. But Soldier’s Fortune will decide which of the three items will be doubled. 

Here’s how you use the Soldier’s Fortune: 

1. Click the "Shoot" button. If you are not logged in, the login window will pop up.
2. If you do not have any Shots, you will be asked to purchase either 1 or 11 Shots.
3. Like the items you won? Purchase the optional Double Shot for 1,100 NX to get a double of one of those three items. But the Soldier’s Fortune will decide which one of your items is doubled!
4. Log into the game and check your inbox to see your winnings. 

Important Notes: 

1. You must have a Combat Arms character to play. Or else who would claim the winnings?
2. Shots cannot be traded or gifted. The items you win cannot be traded or gifted.
3. To purchase a Double Shot, you must have at least 1,100 NX in your NX balance. Even if you have Shots left, if you do not have 1,100 NX in your NX balance, you will not be able to take the Double Shot.


Attention Soldiers,

Combat Arms (despite occasional "Teamer" comments) is just as much a game of strategy as it is of raw skill. Staying with teammates and clan members allows you to watch their back as they watch yours, take out entrenched positions and, most importantly, gives the enemy someone else to shoot at.
Clans have always been the best place to find these mobile meat shields, and as such, we here at Combat Arms Command have chosen to shine a spotlight on Clan play with the second Clan Warfare Event, running from now through September 26th!
All clans that complete at least 10 Clan Matches will receive:
  • 50x 40% Bonus GP Passes
  • 30 Day Clan Cap
  • 30 Day Clan Backpack
Additionally, the members of the 50 clans that earn the most Clan Experience during the event will earn:
  • 30 Day Clan Name Color Change
  • 30 Day CX4 Storm
  • 30 Day P99
  • 30 Day Clan Helmet
  • 30 Day Clan Backpack
Not enough? The top five clans get even more! The players of Clans 2-5 will get the following, in addition to all of the above:
  • A channel in the Clan Server will become named after your clan!
  • 30 Day Negev
  • 1x Supply Crate MYST-Sierra
Finally, in addition to all of the other rewards, the members of the #1 Clan will receive the best rewards of them all!
  • The Clan Server will become named after your clan!
  • 1x Supply Crate MYST-Infinity
Keep in mind, we're keeping our eyes out for anyone that wants to game the system. Any clans that try powerleveling their way to 'victory' will be disqualified, and will receive no rewards at all! Additionally, if a clan has an inappropriate, risque or abusive name, they will not qualify for the Server/Channel Name reward.
Stick with your valuable deco- teammates, and fight your way to victory!
--Combat Arms Command--

Hey Everyone! 

We hope you are enjoying your week so far! Tomorrow will be a scheduled maintenance. Don't forget with release notes from the Dev Blog tomorrow Nexon will be implementing the new Daily Job tasks along with the "cosmetic / customizable shop". 

We know a lot of you have been sounding off about this over at the LCA forums. 

The maintenance is estimated to last 5 hours. So if you have some free time join in on the discussion!

-LCA Staff

P.S. a timezone converter may be found, here.

---------------------




UPDATE: The maintenance has been extended. Please check back here, the Combat Arms Forums or the Combat Arms twitter account (@CombatArms) for further updates. Thank you for your patience, and we do apologize for the inconvenience.

Attention soldiers,

Combat Arms will be undergoing a scheduled maintenance on September 13th, 2012, starting at 6:30 AM, Pacific. This will last approximately 5 hours. During this time, Combat Arms will be unavailable. Thank you for your patience.

-When-

Pacific: 6:30 AM - 11:30 AM.
Eastern: 9:30 AM - 2:30 PM.
Sydney: 11:30 PM - 4:30 AM, September 14th.

-What-

Combat Arms will be unavailable.

From the Combat Arms Development Team:

After the Daily Job update last May, we received a lot of helpful feedback from players, allowing us to pinpoint areas of the system that needed to be fine-tuned. After all the feedback, we decided to remove Daily Jobs for a few months to polish the entire system and work on adding more interesting jobs.
Now that September has arrived, it’s about time for the new and improved Daily Jobs system to return!
Let's take a look at the improvements you can expect to see in the upcoming patch:

System Improvements:

We realize that allowing only 1 set of Daily Jobs may have felt restrictive, so we’ve removed the daily limit entirely!
Multiple Daily Jobs will be provided, and users will be able to choose the jobs they want to take on from the list. In addition to 3-Step Consecutive Daily Jobs, the new system will also provide one-time jobs with only one step. The only restriction is that players can only take on one job at a time.
We’re also adding a Daily Job pop-up menu to make it easier to find available Daily Jobs for the day when you log in. This menu can be turned off if you find it obtrusive.

General UI Improvements:

With the addition of our lovely new job operator, we've streamlined the interface and removed some unnecessary features.
The three job categories will remain the same: "Available," "Current," and "Completed." Click each tab to review the details and rewards associated with your jobs.

Enhanced Scenarios:

The New Job Operator serves as your secretary, managing not only your Daily Jobs, but all of your Jobs. Clients who wish to hire you will send a request message, and you’ll be able to accept the Job through the Job Operator.
There will be a variety of interesting clients, and their requests will lead to exciting scenarios.

Cosmetic Item Shop

We're also introducing a new Cosmetic Item Shop.
This is where you can go to customize your character's appearance. Whereas gear items focus on enhancing stats, cosmetic items are solely for looks and setting your character apart from the crowd. When choosing body gear, players often had to decide between looks and functionality, but with Cosmetic Items, you can have both.
It doesn’t matter if your best gear is ugly. Simply equip cosmetic items to give your character a whole new look! With the increased number of choices for customizing gear, Clan leaders will be able to choose clan gear that everyone likes.
Cosmetic items are equipped just like gear. If you like the 7% movement speed boost you get from your helmet slot item but don’t like its look, equip a new cosmetic item in the cosmetic head slot to change its appearance.
Cosmetic Items can also provide a tactical advantage. There are certain times when you’ll want to hide the information and stats of your gear by disguising it with Cosmetic Items.
Check out concept images for some of the new cosmetic items.
All this is coming your way in the September update! Thank you for playing Combat Arms, and enjoy all the newest additions!
See you on the battlefield!
Mr J.
