Zombie Apocalypse FAQ

Share:

The Zombie Apocalypse Icing Event is live now. I'm slowly getting through it but for now there is a Zombie Apocalypse FAQ Page. A reprint can be found below but check the link inc case there are updates. I'll post some tips and tricks later tonight. The Assassin-a-Nator is not working at the moment but it should be back in now time. Since the fightlist and icing popups changed, Team Spockholm will have to rewrite the code.

The Zombie Apocalypse is upon us! Put your fighting skill to the test in a battle for humanity.
 
Fight as either a Survivor fending off the Zombies or as a Zombie trying to turn Survivors into Zombies. The Zombie Apocalypse Fight Event starts on Wednesday, October 26th, 2011.
 
Your alliance is assigned at the beginning of each season; each season ends when the Zombie contamination has overwhelmed the game. Your alliance is identified by an icon next to your name and your screen border theme.
 
Earn Mastery tier items by icing other players - Survivors and Zombies, though scores are greater for icing those on the opposing side. There are many opportunities, depending on your score, to collect loot drop and mastery items for both sides, which are granted at the end of each season. Collect the final item in each Mastery tier to claim the reward and move on to the next; there are four tiers - Bronze, Silver, Gold and Ruby. Master both sides in order to become a stronger fighter. 


Q:  How is it determined whether I will be a Zombie or a Survivor?
A:  Which faction you fight for is determined randomly at the beginning of each season.  You will fight the entire season as the faction that you were assigned at the beginning.

Q:  How long will each season last?
A:  Each Zombie Apocalypse wave, or 'season', can last from several minutes to a few hours.

Q:  How many seasons are there?
A:  There are not a pre-determined number of seasons. Each season will end when the Zombies overwhelm the game.

Q:  How do I earn the most points?
A:  You will earn more points by icing those on your opposing side.

Q:  How many mastery levels are there?  
A:  For this event there are four levels:  Bronze, Silver, Gold, Ruby

Q:  What are the number of points that I will need to earn for each mastery level?
A:  Each player will begin the season with 0 points.  The chart below shows how many points that you will need to for each level.  Remember, the seasons vary in length so you should ice your opponents as quickly as possible!

Q:  Can I earn mastery for both Zombie and Fighter?
A:  Yes!!  To become a stronger player you can earn mastery rewards from being either a Zombie or a Survivor.

Q:  What if I don't want to be a Zombie?

  2. The launch of the Zombies looks like it might have caused Assassin-a-nator to glitch out. It constantly gets frozen when reloading opponents to attack.

    Battlefield seems to be working fine though. =\
