At the beginning of last month, the awaited Map 10R was finally launched! Since then, a few updates have been released, but here’s what you should know about some of the newly brought changes.

:christmas_tree: Christmas Specials :christmas_tree:
Two new Christmas specials were added this month! The first one is the Christmas Tree, a special epic, and the second one, Rudolph’s Reel. Both of these items can be found in Christmas Crates that can be obtained in many ways, such as buying them from the MunchyMC shop.

:moneybag: Looting Updates :moneybag:

1. The odds of finding Legendary rares, Mythical rares and Extinct rares outside have been buffed!
2. The “Capture the Tesseract” event that originally only took place every Sunday (at 12PM PDT / 3PM EDT / 8PM BST) will now also happen every Wednesday (at 4PM PST / 7 PM EST / 12AM BST).
3. The /gang allychat command has now been added and allows players to send messages that can only be seen by fellow gang members and gang allies (whereas /gang chat only lets you send messages visible to other gang members).
4. The chances of winning a Mythical rare from a Looting Lotto have been increased!

:spider_web: Ultra Legendaries :spider_web:
This month, three new Ultra Legendary rares were added: the Ultra Legendary Beast Fur, the Ultra Legendary Spiderman Feet and the Ultra Legendary Spiderman Wrists!

:1234: Number Lottery :1234:
The future winners of the Number Lottery will be now be rewarded with 1,000,000$ instead of 100,000$ if they can figure out the chosen number!

:eyes: Other Changes :eyes:

Hi Survival! I hope you’re all enjoying bullying Candl- I mean Season 5 as much as I am!
There’s a couple stuff to talk about today, so let’s get into it!

I. Season 5 Release

After a very long wait, we finally got to see the release of Season 5 on the 11th! This new season came with many new features, nerfs, and other cool stuff.

I’ll list some new features here, but for the rest I highly
recommend you check out the Season 5 Info post here!

  • Classes / Skills
  • Custom Terrain
  • Events (One event every 2 months, similar to Spooky Fishing)
  • New Championship Games
  • Rank Perk Changes

II. Farming Festival

Remember those events I mentioned earlier? We’re already in the middle of one!

From the warp totem at spawn you can find the Community Fields! Here you may harvest crops, which have a chance to drop Golden Seeds, the event’s currency!

Using these golden seeds, you may purchase items from our local Farmer Joe! (who you may find near the hot air balloon)

Joe has a variety of items you may purchase, the main item being the stashes! From these stashes you can win rewards, and even start a Star Fish Hunt.

The Star Fish Hunt involves jumping into the water below the island, and looking for a specific type of tropical fish! You may catch it with the Variety Vessel Bucket purchasable from Joe.

Why do I want this fish, you may ask? Because you can obtain the Mythical Stash, which gives Exclusive Rewards!

For more information checkout the event’s main post here.

III. Starter Base Competition

A competition?! Already?! This competition has actually already closed, and the winners should be revealed soon! Here are what they will be receiving:

:1st_place_medal: First Place
8 Summer Crate Keys

:2nd_place_medal: Second Place
6 Summer Crate Keys

:3rd_place_medal: Third Place
4 Summer Crate Keys
(All prizes are split among team members)

For more information, checkout the original post here!

IV. BadBoyHalo made a… video?

This month we were very lucky to have BadBoyHalo’s first video in 2 years be on Survival! If you enjoy watching @maefrey’s base get destroyed or @DutchMTC open a crate, make sure you check it out here!
