Hello Wastelanders!
I personally want to thank everyone for their patience and kind words over the last 2 weeks. A major life changing event has effected my ability to post updates and I want to apologize for my abrupt absence although I didn't have any choice. I will spare everyone the sad medical details and want to let you all know that I am now ok and will be working on getting back into the swing of things again.
With that said, I'd like to take a moment to wish everyone a Happy Holidays. This is a great opportunity to appreciate what we have and take some time to enjoy the company of loved ones. I hope you all have a safe and memorable holiday season and may the New Year bring even more joy to your lives.
Season's Greating from the team here at the Atlas!

In-Game Dev Event coming December 18th! Join your fellow wastelanders and the Devs for a festive time.
Here is the breakdown of the event details:
It’s that time of year again in the Wasteland… we may not know the exact date of the holiday, but we’re pretty sure merry-making begins sometime soon! And this year, we’re hosting a special Holiday Social at the Depot 66 amphitheater (waypoint 4407735, 3493471) at 2 p.m. EST on Saturday, December 18. Join hosts Carlin and PixiStix for this special occasion!
All players (new and existing) are welcome to attend and all attendees will receive an in-game Yuletime Hat (otherwise known as a holiday beanie) as well as other festive goodies, such as eggnog and candy canes.
As a bonus, and for all the needy survivors out there, we’re arranging a wasteland-style “Secret Santa” during the social. If you’d like to participate, please mail items in-game to Carlin with the subject “Secret Santa” and your character name. Gifts will be passed to recipients at random at 2:45 p.m. EST, with gift and donor’s name announced in chat.
No need to RSVP (it’s the apocalypse after all), just put on your best gear and come celebrate!
P.S. Please leave weapons in your pack/vault/vehicle etc. Party crashers will be “escorted” off the premises IMMEDIATELY. Thanks!
We hope to see you all there and Happy Holidays!

The interview we've all been waiting for is in!
Senior Game Designer Marie Croall took some time to join Heero on the LifeNet Fallen Earth Podcast. This interview is a great insight into the upcoming content we should be expecting over the coming weeks. There were also player submitted questions for the interview for anything related to Fallen Earth. It was a blast and there are definitely awesome times coming. Also don't forget to tune in this weekend for the PTS Dev Event.
In the meantime, take care and 'Do the Clone Thing!'

We hope everyone had a great Turkey Day and a not-so-hectic Black Friday! The festivities are not over either. Unlimited Ammo Weekend is still running until Nov. 28th and the The Fallen Earth Store is currently running a special with limited-time price cuts on several wasteland goods, including game time and the Companion App premium features until Nov. 29th. There is also Extra Character Slots available if 4 just doesn't cut it anymore.
With all the stuff going on, it can be easy to lose track of what to do. Besides the Blood Sports mayhem and shopping craziness taking place today, we want to remind you about the PTS event where we can join the Devs on Dec. 4th.
There is also the latest Massively Podcast Interview with Marie Croall about the recent State of the Game. It is definitely a must hear for anyone interested in the future of Fallen Earth. Check it out and get the latest on the game happenings.
That should be enough to keep you all busy over the weekend. We know we are swamped with all the holiday goodness. With that said, once again, we hope everyone had a great Turkey Day and Black Friday.
In the meantime, take care and 'Happy Holidays!'

On December 4th, we'll be able to check out some of the latest updates planned for Fallen Earth on the PTS while interacting with the Devs!
That's right, the Devs are making themselves available for us to hang out with on the PTS so that we can check out the upcoming changes and share our feedback. There is even mention of the possibility of earning reward points, this is just too good to pass up. The updates are planned for next week and will include: terrain enhancements, further combat system improvements, what is in store for Boneclaw, tutorial changes, an AP cap, unlocked mutations from factions, and more.
Icarus needs our feedback and we're all invited to share our thoughts. If you've never used this server before, then check out the Public Test System FAQ to learn more and download the client.
Here is the Official Announcement from Icarus about the upcoming changes.
After some testing, you're invite to give feedback on the updates at the Public Test System Forum.
Go spill some blood with the new updates, all for the betterment of Fallen Earth.

Get your self ready for Unlimited Ammo Weekend starting November 24th and lasts until November 28th!
This has been a long requested idea from players and it sounds like it will be utter madness. This will apply to all Blood Sports arenas for all level brackets. Everyone is invited and no clone will be left out of this invitation to bloodshed. So get your friends, family, the neighbor, whoever... and jump into the Blood Sports and show us what you're made of.
In the meantime, take care and 'Do the Clone Thing!'
