**Developer Patch 2017/02/13**

*With Valentine's day coming soon and some major problems we have decided to release a smaller hotfix / patch. This patch includes a lot of fixes and all the content for the Valentine's Day events.*
Before we jump into the patch notes we would like to let you all know what exactly is happening on and after Valentine's Day. Here's more information:
**Valentine's We﻿ek**

* Instead of doing events only ON Valentine's Day we have decided to extend it with a few more days. Here are the exact dates:

+ START: Tuesday, February 14, 2017 - 00:00 (UTC+2)
+ END: Friday, February 17, 2017 - 23:59 (UTC+2)

* We have some amazing and cool things planned during these days. Stay tuned with an announcement that will follow tomorrow with more details about WHEN / WHAT is going to happen!

*Patch is expected to roll out: Monday, February 13, 11:00 (UTC+2). Please keep in mind that this is an estimation. There is a chance the patch rolls out a few hours later if we stumble upon problems.*

### GENERAL UPDATES

* Updated the airdrop plane sound to a jet engine sound instead of the sound of a propellor plane.
* Updated the airdrop plane model. We've added a complete new model that's better quality, better optimized and looks better.
* Updated the old "Origin" crates used almost everywhere in the game now have a new texture containing the Fredaikis logo.
* Fixed the problem related to some language packs showing the wrong information on the information about premium benefits.
* Fixed the "Item Being Saved" bug that happens to players sometimes when trying to pick up items in a server.
* "Item Being Saved" WILL still happen IF the servers have bad connections BUT we recoded the way it works and that prevents it now from being bugged most of the time.
* Fixed the problem with impacts for military tents. When shooting a tent snow particles would play. This is now fixed.
* Fixed one of the NA server problems - we got rid of the server and now have a new one with better connections.
* Optimized fast load, recoded certain parts to make fast load even smoother and more optimized.
* We are still looking into the texture glitches caused by fast load. Stay tuned for this!
* Fixed a bug causing the color picker to be picking white for the item highlight colors.
* Fixed a bug where battle royales would crash, preventing people from joining them after some days and give the message that no free servers are available.
* Added new particles / sounds / impacts for glass objects.
* Added new particles / sounds / impacts for Rubbish (Trash) objects.
