All your questions about the latest patch

Shall be answered right here , right Now
Q- I cant use the Mutation grenade in HMX , what is this about?
A-At the moment you cant , it just works like a normal grenade if you pick it up from the supply crates . could possibly be a bug
Q-Why cant i switch bags in Excavation HMX Map?
A-Its a bug and shall be fixed soon (I Hope)
Q: What classifies as a win for Soldiers or a win for Mutants?
A: Whomever has the majority of rounds won at the end of the game. If its a 9 round game, a team would have to score 5 or more to be a win for them.
Q-Why does the new mode have no knockback ?
A- Because you deal about 3x The normal damage with your guns so it only makes sense that mutants dont get pushed back or it would be very overpowered
Q-Why did they remove the permanent combat axe from the coupon exchange spot ??
A-To replace it with 2 new guns (Remington 870 and Rx4 Storm)
Q-What are the new ribbons?
A- One badge for 100 Hmx match wins as Soldiers at any time and one for 100 Hmx Match wins as mutants at any time + one badge for participating in the events related to HMX in From 2-5 February
Q-What is up with that ladder in the Rooftops HMX Map?
A-Its meant to be there to give players an edge and to allow them to shoot mutants before they get to them
Q-Why didnt they leave the combat axe and just add one Remington shotgun ?
A-
Please note that the coupon exchange system is continuing to get updates with new weapons. This may mean that some of the old weapons will be removed. They may show up later on in
the game in some other form however we cannot guarantee this fact.
Or click here for [GM]Saidin's explanation and discussion on the Axe removal.

Q- Why does the kick vote In HMX/HM/MM not work ?
- Its brand new and is still in progress and hopefully will be up and running soon
Q- What is HMX ? i never heard of this before
Okay then lets put it this way:
You start out as you, the average G.I joe with your badass machine gun / rifle/smg/shotgun/Knife/pistol . Your goal is to survive the mutants long enough to turn into an ever more badass dual kukri wielding commandos and slay green baddies.
There are 4 sets of characters in this mode:
1-Normal Soldier (You when you start)
2- Mutants , just like the ones in HM / MM whom you can turn into if you are chosen at the start of the match or if you get infected
3- Xeno /Exterminator / Big blue thingy, is a special mutant that uses powerful and quick attacks to mutate other soldiers , There is only one of those in each game
4- Commando , A soldier which yields 9000 health points and a powerful kukri with an astoundingly powerful right click capable of obliterating a mutant for good with one well aimed strike


Special settings:
Shooting mutants or XENO does not permanently kill them , you must do this with a melee as a soldier or as a commando
All Hm/MM maps work for this HMX mode as well as 2 new maps
Attacks deal about 2.5/3 times the normal punch , so choose your weapon very wisely!

The Exp gain is also very balanced as this is an easy mode despite the fact that takes a long time to gain a score worthy of 300 exp
Crates are dropped just like in HM/MM


Some tips :
1-Using sniper rifles and shooting mutants in the head deals considerable amounts of damage
2-Heavy guns are not advised as you need to be very mobile
3-The thompson , Scar light and m14 are considered to be some of the best firearms for this particular mode

New guns introduced:
MG3 /MG3 Gold as a limited time zp crate (Not permanent will be gone by next patch)
Awm Stripes - Zp rental from the item mall / Ingame shop
Remington 870- New Medium powered Shotgun , available for 50 coupons in the black market coupon exchange window
Rx4 Storm - Simliar to the m4a1 , also available for 50 coupons
Qbz95-Qbz variant , available as a gp crate , permanent crates
