We have implemented some new code with X-Trap and HGWC to stop some specific hacks from entering the game. We do not want to reveal these new details, but we hope that they will help improve the situation.
Note that it is very difficult to stop 100% of the hacks, but we are working with X-Trap and Smilegate on a daily basis to eliminate as many hacks and hackers as possible!
New Account Creation restrictions
Very soon we will be adding some new anti fraud measures with account creation. This will give us more ability to control how many accounts players make per day which should help reduce some of the abuse. We will have more details about this soon.
Addressing Server Instabilities
We are making back end improvements to our servers in conjunction with the developers. This process will take some time, but we hope that with each new iteration our servers get more stable and more functional. Most of these upgrades should not affect the live service, but as we make them we will make additional announcements to keep everyone informed. Our goal to get back to a stable service and make sure everyone is enjoying Cross Fire!!

You can win both, but note that you can only win 1 character per account.
Multiple character items (of the same type of character) are not permitted (or make sense).
But you can say, purchase 50 slaughter tickets and then win both the JTF and the M14 EBR Gold.
(plus a lot of other stuff) -
Can someone explain to me the "slaughter tickets" a bit more?
Are you able to win them somehow?
Slaughter Tickets work like this.
You buy 1 slaughter ticket.
You activate the slaughter ticket (like you would an EXP item or a Spray). Note that by default these items are turned on.
You go into a Zombie Mode game and kill a zombie.
That kill will now reward you with items. The more slaughter tickets you have the more kills you can convert to items.
The items are random, however there is a chance to win 1 of 2 permanent items, The JTF character and the M14EBR Gold, in addition to the AR-57, Dual DE Green Vein, F2000 Green Skull, Zombie Mode Grenade, Zombie Mode Backpack, Kris knife, Combat Axe and MSG90. (all those other items are temp and will stack).
When you leave the game you will see the list of items you've won. Note that we have also tested cases for ZM games crashing and we still won the items (even though the congrats screen wasn't displayed due to the crash). -

Can you exchange weapons for XP? -
Damn it, lol. Saidin ninjaed twice already,
Still gonna post these, xDVietDaiGia wrote: »So you can only win 1 of the 2 permanent items from Slaughter Ticket? You can not win them both ?
You could win both, at any time or even in the same set of tickets (I mean if you buy more than one) for that matter (although that would be extremely lucky, lol). Definitely possible for anyone to win 1 then the other, ^_^Can someone explain to me the "slaughter tickets" a bit more?

Consider this as a BM, instead of spinning, you slaughter zombies,
You buy tickets and go kill some zombies. At some point, after killing a zombie or more, your tickets will start converting into different prizes which you'll see after the game or once you leave.
You buy 50 tickets, you get 50 prizes (for example), if you're lucky, you could win the best item(s) in this 1st of many more sets to come in the future! It's an alternative to the Black Market, you're not guarantee to win the best prize(s), but you can be sure to get some goodies out of it (be it 7-days weapons or ZM exclusive items)! -

How much do 1 ticket cost ? If purchasing 50 tickets do guarantee me winning both of the items, that would be great. -
Ok so I think I got this.
If I buy 1 ticket and play 1 match of ZM, I will get 1 set of prizes.
If I buy 50 tickets and play 1 match of ZM, will I get 50 sets of prizes at the end of that match ?
1 ticket converts into 1 set of prizes ? Are there a maximum amount of activated ticket in 1 ZM match ? -

You buy them with ZP and you play zombie mode and earn items from killing zombies. These items can range to ZM bags/temporary rifles to permanent m14 gold or character. -

Sorry, I wasn't clear enough I guess,
The M14 Gold & JTF is consider as a 'set', obviously the Slaughter system won't stick to 1 set, so many more will be added later on in future patches (no ETA tho). Pretty much like adding a new crate into the Black Market.
1 ticket = 1 item. Like if I buy 5 tickets, I could get, 1 Dual D.E. Green Vein, 2 FN F2000 Green Skull, 1 Zombie Grenade and 1 Zombie Backpack. That's how it works. This set as a couple of different weapons / items for 7 days each, but like a BM crate, there's the chance to win the best prize(s), which in this case would be JTF or/and M14 EBR Gold. -
Thanks, that really clears up. And 1 more thing, there are no maximum Ticket to be activated for 1 ZM match ? Or you can buy as much Tickets as you want for that match.[MOD]Simrock wrote: »Sorry, I wasn't clear enough I guess, The M14 Gold & JTF is consider as a 'set', obviously the Slaughter system won't stick to 1 set, so many more will be added later on in future patches (no ETA tho).

Like if I buy 50 Tickets I would get 50 items out of just 1 match right ? That will saves lots of my time. -

You don't get all in one match. It depends on your kills -

The more tickets you have, the faster they will convert. You could buy 100 tickets, but I can guarantee they will convert so fast, you won't have time to track the counter anymore, xD But not to worry, just mean it's a faster process than buying let's say; 10 which will take a couple of Waves to convert all of them.
If you won one of the best prizes, it will be noted in the chat's logs in a yellow message and every other players in that room will know, Then you'll either be patient enough to finish the game or immediatly leave to look at your new Permanent reward, :P
