The new Crossout Polar Lights Update has a lot to offer. This patch introduces the Game Center, a new section where players can enter some classic custom battles. But what’s more interesting here is the “My Brawls” section that allows players to create their own brawls.
Players have a variety of settings they can tweak to their liking when creating a brawl. For instance, they can set up different rules like how many rounds are there in each battle, match duration, and enabling/disabling respawns after destruction, among many others.
Furthermore, they can set the minimum and maximum Power Scores for both players and bots in the “Blueprints” tab. They even have the option to prohibit certain vehicle parts if they want to.
Aside from the ability to create custom brawls, the Polar Lights Update for Crossout introduces the new PvP map called Volcano. This is a two-level map available for Encounter Mode battles.
The new Volcano map is great for both snipers and players who prefer battling at medium range. The two parallel descents provide perfect avenues for snipers to take out the threat, while the plateau serves as a good battleground for medium-range engagements.
