We would like to thank everyone for sharing their opinions regarding the kick vote system.

At this time, we have decided that we will try to bring back the Kick Vote system in January. The system will have some changes from the way it was before, however those are yet to be announced.

All I know is that they're bringing back an improved version of the Kick vote system ( KVS )..and maybe some more X-mas guns(I wish they brought the Santa Hat back)

From what I heard while going through the masses, most are talking about new Zombie Mode Content in hushed whispers, so my presumption is that quite a few people are wishing for new ZM Stuff to come out.

Although it might still be a bit early.

I personally wish for a new FFA Map.

Have we got any information on what exactly has been improved on the KVS?

EDIT: nvm, found it

New ZM content would be exactly what I want, especially if it is accompanied with a grinding event.

Well I personally would love a new escape mode map mainly cause that mode needs some attention. (Escape into a New Year!..... could be an event) but that chances of that happening are pretty slim I'd say.

If it is new ZM content then that should be good as ZM stuff is pretty well liked....to the exception of when they add limited time/special weapons as easily achieved 'rewards' that part is lame...but the other aspects are usually good.
One could also predict at least 1 New Years crate and maybe another crate to go with. I'd LOVE to see the last Show Your Skin gun get released as well.

But honestly....i'd settle for some super duper server maintenance that appears to be LONG overdue.

im still waiting for the santa hat

I'm just hoping for a huge update

For old hackers in ranked to get banned...

I'm hoping for more bug fixes, but since people are talking about zm maybe they'd get a new map from CF china I guess. Tho china is so ahead of NA in the contents of the game so probably we can guess what's coming.

I was hoping for a new reward for 30 ribbons, the new ZM, a list of weapons to the "Real Men Wear Pink" Ribbon and get the bugs fixed of the HMX ribbons.

Once again, I have to agree.

Maybe we should we wait for more information before jumping in and getting our hopes up. Lol

I already made my wishes http://forum.z8games.com/showthread.php?322328-New-Year-Requests

AuraSphere

Well, I still don't know what to expect from the new patch to be honest -.-
But I would settle with any content. I'm wishing for new ZM content ofc, but not for this patch since i'ts unlikely it will happen too early.

I wonder if they would really be doing that at this point of the new year. :<

adigagever92

Well that strange...CF Europe just added Halloween guns in Christmas patch o.O

Btw..I'm more eager to February patch (Coupon guns )

Hope they remove KVS in zombie mode at least.
They should bring KVS back in TD, and SD.
As for HM and HMX, frankly I have no idea...if they bring KVS in these modes, it will be unplayable if you are ACE in the room and play alone... even you play with friends, 1 or 2 are not enough, at least need 4 friends i think to avoid the kick.

I would love to see more crate events , It keeps the game exciting with a new obstacle everyday , Would love to open up the year with a challenging event for a bunch of crates or ep

I personally hope that the FPS bugs in the game get fixed! Everytime when you login, you're screen freezes for 3-4 seconds because of the smoke in the channel/room. And when you change anything from Options, your screen gets stuck for 10-15 seconds, it's pretty annoying. And I hope that they give more EP/crates events. Let Santa Hat be 70K ZP again, cuz I won't be enjoying the game when they just put in the Item Shop for GP!

A new Map like EE or BW would be nice.

Or a Map from Austria

This too. the FPS drops and the random freeze ups are annoying. Especially the ones that happen in the middle of playing. For seemingly no reason i'll go from 200 FPS down to 15 for a second or two and then it starts building back up to 200. Or it'll just randomly completely freeze up for 1-3 seconds. Mainly happens in ZM it seems but have experienced it in other modes as well.

The previous year it cost 70K ZP during the Boxing Day Sale! I just keep my fingers crossed and I hope that they put the Rudolph Helmet + Santa Hat crate back in the Black Market just till the next maintenance.

Does anyone know if the Spy Mode is broken ? I've seen that the spy is no longer disguised which in its sense ruins the mode , If this is a bug please fix it as me and my friend enjoy playing spy Mode

and whats with the new ones :=)

I agree with some of the ideas you mentioned up there , i would like to add some aswell:

I really hope you fix all the issues around here , the most important one is the lag which started from a few days ago.

Change coupon guns once a year it is enough time for everyone to obtain atleast 1 of them (as you know coupon guns must be the rarest ).

Do something new which called the player of the month, the best player of the month will be awarded with something good , and yeah i think some permanent weapon , so lets say there are 20,000 players played this month and you were the best one out of 20,000 , i would definitely say you are pro and really deserve something good!

Change the '5 missions' or the achievements for every week , we get the same tasks over and over again and same rewards aswell, kinda bored right?

Change dog tags rewards for something new or old doesn't really matter.

I hope you remove FP mall , this is the stupidest decision z8/SG ever took , like I remember in the past playing with m700 to get some sniper badges , make it hard not everyone trolling with awm or kukri..

Make new maps , by this i mean some good large , well-designed maps!

That's all , hope they see this thread anyways..
