We've been listening to your feedback and striving to deliver an exceptional gaming experience. After hearing your thoughts on areas that could be improved, we are thrilled to announce a major update that focuses on revamping the weapon shooting sync system and enhancing server lag.

In the past, you were exchanging approximately ~800 messages per second with server updates during gameplay. However, with our latest update, we have achieved an astounding 75% improvement, bringing down the message exchange rate to just below 200 messages per second!

To keep track of your server connection, simply hold down the F5 key while in-game. Please note that the number of messages sent and received varies based on your in-game environment. If you find yourself in a tranquil setting with nothing changing around you, the message exchange will be lower. But brace yourself for intense shootouts with explosive backgrounds, as the message exchange will increase to match the action!

We haven't stopped there! We've gone the extra mile by completely reworking the weapon sync and bullet damage system. Instead of relying on public weapon sync scripts, we invested countless hours in creating our very own custom solution. This ensures a more immersive and seamless gameplay experience tailored specifically for our server.

This release marks a monumental overhaul of our networking and weapon sync system. While we've conducted extensive testing, it's important to note that real-world production servers may introduce new challenges. We're committed to addressing any bugs or issues that may arise promptly. That's why we've decided to focus solely on this update, omitting any additional changes, allowing us to swiftly roll back if needed.

While this update aims to enhance connection stability, please remember that it cannot address issues related to your home internet connection. Rest assured, we're continuously working on delivering the best possible gaming experience within our realm.

We appreciate your support and understanding as we embark on this exciting journey. Get ready to immerse yourself in a world of improved weapon shooting, reduced lag, and unparalleled gameplay!

We recently released a new website update packed full of goodies and new ways to interact with each other. We know you guys have been enjoying it because of the overwhelmingly positive feedback I have received about it! More than any other non-game update ever!

Following the trend of social media., we have introduced Stories on the forums. Similar to Instagram, Stories is a new cool way that you can interact with other users on either your computer or mobile phone and post short videos or pictures which will only display for 24 hours.

You can post stories by clicking on the yellow '+' button

We have also introduced a new Verified tag on the website. We have plans to give this to loyal users and to provide them access to faster support and other things on the forums.

I look forward to sharing the details of how this will work in the future.

You can view all the verified users here.


There is a new social profile display view where you can share your social links and it will display in all your post bits.

You can update your social identities linked by updating your account details.​



The Screenshots and Video section is being made redundant and read-only. We now have a new media section where you can post your screenshots, videos, twitch videos and more. Fellow lunatics can like and post comments. Additionally, it will be shown around the website so your content will get more visibility!

Make sure you post all your cool and awesome screenshots or videos in the new Media section!



However, the biggest update of them all which you may not instantly feel is major optimisation and cleanup of the website. It will now load much faster even though it is packed with more new features!

Other updates include

Joining Groups is now under Social in the navigation bar. Additionally, the Support navigation bar link now has useful links to support sections.

Other things include the removal of the Home button in the navigation, clicking the logo will take you to the home page. The Twitter API has been updated with Elon Musk's most recent API version. You no longer can request awards since we get spammed with a lot of invalid requests - we will hand these out based on merit. The search engine has been revamped to make searching much faster with better accessibility options and SEO.
