[PC][PS][Xbox] Crossout: Spring mayhem
The Spring mayhem returns! This time new combat vehicles, including a helicopter, will collide on the battlefield! Take part in the battles, move up the ranking board and get the rewards you deserve!
Spring mayhem
Attention! The event will last from April 20 to May 14 inclusive!
- Battles are held in the âBattlefieldâ brawl on special maps:
- âTank rangeâ;
- âRiver lighthouseâ;
- New map for the mode â âDesolate townâ.
- All maps have been modified for ground and air battles.
- Battles are fought on pre-built armoured vehicles.
- At the beginning of each battle, you can choose the desired armoured car that you will ride into the battle. If you do not have time to choose a car in the allotted time, the blueprint is selected randomly.
- There are 5 blueprints to choose from with different weapons, movement parts and, accordingly, roles:
- Scout
- Tank;
- Sniper;
- Artillerist;
- Helicopter.
- The same blueprint can be selected at the same time by no more than 3 players.
- The mode has respawns. Before respawning, you need to choose one of the 5 vehicles on which you want to continue the battle. If you do not have time to change the vehicle in the allotted time, you will be automatically issued the same armoured vehicle on which you fought before the destruction.
- Your objective in the battle: fill the point scale earlier than the opposing team, or score more points before the time runs out. Points are awarded for the destruction of opponents.
- A team is awarded a win if it scores 50 points and outscores the opposing team by at least 5 points.
- If a team scores 50 points, or the time of the match ends, but the gap of 5 points between the teams has not been reached, then the teams are given extra time.
- If at the end of extra time the situation has not changed and the gap of 5 points has not been reached, then a draw is declared.
- If one team scores 100 points, it receives an early victory, and the battle ends.
- The team receives points for destroying enemies according to the following formula: â1 + the number of bases controlled at the time of destructionâ. You can always find out how many points your team will receive for destroying an enemy by looking at the number of filled in rhombs under the team score counter.
Special challenges
- During the entire event, a special challenge for 3 victories in the mode will be available to you every day.
- The challenges of the âSpring mayhemâ do not accumulate. An uncompleted challenge disappears the following day.
- A container with resources âStrategic reserveâ is rewarded for completing a challenge.
Leaderboard
- This year we have updated the rating system. Now it better evaluates your actions in battle and encourages those players who try to be the most useful to their team.
- Now entering the battle is free, and no rating points are deducted for participation.
- Now all leagues except âRustâ are not âsafeâ. This means that you can move to the previous league if you donât play efficiently and/or face a losing streak.
- Battle rating calculation:
- At the end of the battle the player receives rating points, the formula for its calculation takes into account the following events:
- the amount of enemies you destroyed,
- how many times you helped destroy the enemy,
- how many times you have captured the base,
- how many times you have been destroyed by enemies,
- whether your team was able to win the battle.
- Each of the listed events gives its own number of points for calculating the final battle rating. The destruction of your vehicle is considered a negative event and results in the loss of points.
- The final rating of the battle is calculated by taking into account all the points earned, as well as the time of the battle for which they were received (at least 4 minutes of the battle). The final rating for the battle cannot be negative.
- At the end of the battle the player receives rating points, the formula for its calculation takes into account the following events:
- Rating calculation for the rating leaderboard
- The battle rating is taken into account during the calculation of the final rating for the leaderboard.
- If you donât get a zero combat rating, your overall rating will either go up or stay the same up to the âGoldenâ league.
- Early exit from the battle:
- If for some reason you are disconnected from the game, or you leave the battle yourself, then after the first such event your rating will not be recalculated.
- This feature becomes available again only 18 hours after the next such event. Do not abuse it so that at the right time you can disconnect from the battle without losing your rating.
- If the exit occurs more often, then the rating of such battles will be equal to zero.
- Even if you donât succeed in battles, due to diligence and perseverance, each player can reach the âGoldâ league. Good skills and team play only help speed up the process.
- Rewards for leagues (from âIronâ to âGoldâ):
- âIronâ league: 2 stickers âFight clubâ;
- âSteelâ league: 2 stickers âWoolen wolfâ;
- âBronzeâ league: decor âTactical birchâ and an emblem for banner customization;
- âSilverâ league: 2 stickers âBeast monarchâ and a background for banner customization.
- âGoldâ league: decors âSolduckâ and âGoddess of victoryâ.
- âLegendâ league:
- The amount of available places in the âLegendâ league is limited (500 places in this event);
- If you occupy the last place in the âLegendâ, and the player from the âGoldâ league scores more rating points than you currently have, then he enters the âLegendâ league, and you move to the âGoldâ league.
- Once the event ends, the top 500 players will receive a reward based on their position at the time the event ends.
- Places from 500 to 51: a container with a tradable epic part of your choice.
- Places from 50 to 11: 2 containers with a tradable epic part of your choice.
- Places from 10 to 4: 1 container with a tradable legendary part of your choice.
- Places from 3 to 1: 2 containers with a tradable legendary part of your choice.
- As a reward for each battle, you also get scrap metal. The amount of the received resource depends on your effectiveness in battle.

Changes in scatter mechanics when moving
Previously, the limits of the scatter (minimum and maximum degrees) were determined only by two states of the vehicle: whether it doesnât move at all or if it is moving. Therefore, there might be a significant difference in accuracy between 0 and 1 km/h, but there was no difference between 1 km/h and 120 km/h.
Now the scatter limits no longer depend on the state, but constantly change depending on the current speed: the scatter increases as the speed increases and decreases along with the speed. Inside these limits, the scatter changes as before: it increases after the shot and when the weapon rotates, and decreases in other cases. At high speeds, the scatter is maintained at the level of what it used to be in motion. The accuracy is mostly improved at low speeds.
With movement parts that can move in all directions, the scatter limits also increase slightly while âstrafingâ. This is done to somewhat equalize accuracy with wheeled and tracked vehicles, which are forced to rotate their weapons more often and lose accuracy.
Structural parts
Improved the physics of the following fenders (which corrected a number of issues with the installation of wheels in conjunction with these parts):
- âBuggy fender leftâ and âBuggy fender rightâ;
- âLeft Kutkh footâ and âRight Kutkh footâ;
- âLeft Kutkh wingâ and âRight Kutkh wingâ;
- âLeft sodeâ and âRight sodeâ;
- âLeft pawâ and âRight pawâ;
- âLeft phantom fenderâ and âRight phantom fenderâ;
- âLeft rampartâ and âRight rampartâ;
- âBartizanâ (for this wing, the ability of mounting it closer to the âBigfootâ suspension has been implemented).
Parts
Goliath
Increased track friction. Now itâs more difficult to move a car with âGoliathsâ.
Machinist
Added new attachment points.
Improvements to physics of movement parts
Tracks
Now turning with the released âforwardâ key doesnât lead to a sharp braking of the car.
Augers and âOmniâ
- Now, when changing the direction of movement (from moving straight to strafe mode and vice versa), the vehicle doesnât stop.
- Vehicles with augers/Omni no longer have increased acceleration when driving diagonally.
- Now stopping the car is not followed by a sharp pull.
- Now turning with the released âforwardâ key doesnât lead to a sharp braking of the car.
Comment: these edits make driving smoother and minimize sudden braking caused by non-obvious reasons.
Wheels
Fixed a problem with long braking of the car when the handbrake is pressed for a short time.
- Added adaptive vertical synchronization settings specifically for the windowed mode (PC). You can enable it here: Menu â Settings â Graphics â V-sync â âAdaptiveâ or âAdaptive (1/2 of the refresh rate)â.
- Added a display of the number of challenges in the queue, as well as the number of challenges that will be issued this season to the âSeasonal challengesâ section.
- Improved animations of selecting a region on the world map.
- Now the notification about the destruction of the enemy doesnât completely cover a part of the screen during the battle.
Recorded and added a new music track for the garage:
