Crossout: Off we go!
“Off we go!” — that is the main slogan of these New Year and Christmas days in Crossout! Build your own unique armoured aircraft, take part in air battles with other players and collect all the festive rewards!
Off we go!
Attention! The event, brawl, and workbench will be available until January 25 inclusive!
- “Off we go!” is the first brawl in Crossout for which you can assemble a real “armoured aircraft” and fly it into battle against other players.
- The brawl is available from reputation level 4 with the Engineers faction.
- In this brawl, the matchmaking is based on Power score, and it is identical to the matchmaking system in standard PVP missions.
- The battles are held according to the rules of the “Carnage” brawl:
- The battles are held in the “8 versus 8” format.
- Both standard vehicles and vehicles with a mounted propeller can participate in the battle.
- Respawns are enabled in the brawl: after being destroyed, your armoured car will reappear on the battlefield after some time.
- The goal is to score 10,000 points faster than the opposing team.
- Points are awarded for shooting off parts and destroying opponents.
- If no team scores 10,000 points before the time runs out, the team with the most points wins.
- The battles are held on 3 maps designed specifically for flying:
- Dead city;
- East quarter;
- High cathedral — a new map created specifically for the “Off we go!” brawl;
- All maps have altitude limits and borders within which you can move. When flying outside the allowed limits, players will see a warning message. If the player doesn’t return to the allowed area within the allotted time, his car is destroyed.
- To assemble flying aircrafts, each player is given a special propeller upon entering the game, which must be mounted on the vehicle. The propeller will only be available for the duration of the event and will automatically disappear when it ends.
- The assembled flying aircrafts can be tested in test drive or in the “Custom battle” mode (with certain restrictions).
- The settings “Control of movement parts with strafing” do not affect vehicles with the propeller.
- An armoured car with a propeller can only be used in the “Off we go!” mode.
- To participate in the “Off we go!” mode you need an armoured car that has from 3000 to 10000 PS.
- You can also mount ground movement parts on any vehicle with a propeller. Using a special key you can:
- Start the propeller. In this case, the ground movement parts become inactive.
- Stop the propeller. In this case, the propeller stops working, the vehicle can no longer take off, but can move with the help of ground movement parts.
- For participating in the “Off we go!” mode you receive wires and “Crackers”, which can be used on the special New Year’s workbench “Lost and found explosives”.
Daily challenges
- During the event, a special challenge that can be completed only in the “Off we go!” mode will be available to you every day.
- As a reward for completing this challenge, you will receive the “Pilot’s container” which contains new cosmetic items.
- Only 1 item can be randomly obtained from one container.
New Year workbench “Lost and found explosives”
- Crackers are a special New Year resource that can be obtained in the special PvP mission “New Year’s Fever” or in the new mode “Off we go!”.
- At the end of the event, all unused crackers will be withdrawn without the option to exchange them.
- You will be able to exchange the received crackers, as well as other resources, for :
- A number of themed cosmetic items from previous New Year events;
- A container with a tradable epic part of your choice;
- A container with New Year stickers from previous events. 1 sticker can be randomly obtained from each container.
- Also during the event, you can produce upgraded parts by using resources and non-upgraded parts. You can find the full list of parts in the game.
- The schedule for the appearance of certain upgraded parts can always be found in the game.

While watching her favourite action film once again, Sara suddenly realized that she was the only person who could avenge the people who had once saved her. And so she rushed to continue her search with renewed vigor. Surprisingly, at the first survivors camp she was told about the odd man in red clothes who was seen in the Valley every winter. Sarah checked her rocket launchers, brushed the snow from her hair, and set a course towards her former home.

Exhausted from her fruitless searches, Sarah settled down in the middle of nowhere and withdrew into herself. Now her entire life consisted of searching for supplies and watching the film collection she had managed to acquire while she was living in the cult. The TV helped her forget the pain for a while, but each time it came back around again. And even her favourite hobby could not make the young woman forget about revenge for a long time.

After Sarah found the burnt-out ashes at the site of the Frosts’ camp, her life was divided into before and after. The young woman lost her family for the second time. And, of course, it affected her very much. But the most frustrating thing was that she had absolutely no leads. For a long time she wandered the Wasteland, trying to find even a hint about the Frosts, but the only answer the universe gave her was silence.
