Topic: Jagged Alliance Online / Naked PvP Event!

I would like to ask you to report every player that was and is acting against the event policies per e-mail to jao-support@cliffhanger-productions.com. We will investigate each report individually and take the appropriate actions.

Each participant who deliberately acted against the event rules will be disqualified from receiving any event rewards and might have to consider further consequences (loss of honor points).

Thank you.

Topic: Jagged Alliance Online / Naked PvP Event!

Heya,

Sorry for the late response!

We realize that the last Naked PvP Event had too many and way to complicated rules which is why we try to keep it simple this time.

There is no required number of mercs that must be used. You can go with 3 and play against a player who uses 4. If you win, you win and get a point. If you lose, you lose.

Surrender rules for non-compliant match-ups:
If the opponent is 10+ levels higher than you: OK to surrender
If the opponent is wearing armor: OK to surrender
If the opponent has more mercs than you in the game: NOT OK to surrender
If the opponent is 10+ levels lower than you: NOT OK to surrender

If you have any other questions, please let me know. We want to be everything as clear as possible before the event starts.

I’m looking forward to tomorrow!

Topic: Jagged Alliance Online / Warzone Scoring Event!

No worries. Any further questions, just shoot. :)

Topic: Jagged Alliance Online / Warzone Scoring Event!

Here are the Warzones that are relevant for this event:
All starting at 5pm CST

Friday, 08.03: Bovilia
Sunday, 09.03: –
Monday, 10.03: Shiar
Tuesday, 11.03: Molvania
Wednesday, 12.03: Bunjaeng
Thursday, 13.03: -

Topic: Jagged Alliance Online / Warzone Scoring Event!

Sounds a bit harsh the way you describe it, but essentially, it is correct.

Shiar is a low level Warzone and this event targets the high level Warzones only. We want to minimize high level trafic in Shiar to give lower level players the opportunity to achieve some great scores, as well.

Topic: Jagged Alliance Online / Naked PvP Event!

Come on, PvP half-naked and don’t forget to bring an old gun! No level restrictions!

The event will start at 15:00 / 3:00pm and ends at 21:59 / 9:59pm CST on Thursday the 07th of March.
You’ve got 7 hours to show what a hero you are!

To win, you must gain the most PvP points while fulfilling the following requirements:

1) Wear no armor with your mercs!
2) Use only weapons with max. level 23! (item lvl23)
3) Use only standard ammunition
4) Hip belt with contents are allowed – but no refilling with items from the backpack!
5) Mercs levels need to be within 10 level of your Reputation level
6) No player is allowed to play PvP with armor. If you meet someone in a pvp match that is wearing armor, inform them kindly on the event and ask them to leave the match.

It is just you, your team and your skills!

Every victory gains you one point. The team with the most points wins. Simple, clean, fast.

Extended Rules:
- You are only allowed to chicken out, when your enemy is 10 levels or more above you; otherwise you will lose a point.
- You are only allowed to abort the match, when your enemy is wearing gear, otherwise you will lose a point.

If you repeatedly disconnect during pvp matches, we will suspect you of trying to rig the results and reduce your score accordingly. Camping, hiding and running away constantly will result in penalties.

The five heroes with the highest accumulated pvp points and a few lucky randomly chosen participants (depending on participation numbers) will be rewarded.

Rewards:
First place gets you 125 gold!
Second to fifth place gets you 75 gold each.
The lucky few random picks will get 75 gold. (How many depends on the total number of participants)

And yes! The shy ones amongst of you may use camouflage paint.
