    Hello GTM! With the year coming to an end, I want to take a moment to thank this amazing community for the incredible support they have provided us the past year or so. We are honored to be able to provide you all with a quality gameplay and host you all with us on GTM. With that said, we are happy to announce an incredible CHRISTMAS Update for our incredible players here on GTM!

    [​IMG]
    The Chrismas events will run until January 2nd at 12:00 AM EST. During this event, the server starts a Santa's Supply Drops every 1-2 hours; players can also start Santa Drops themselves by purchasing Nice Lists off of the GTM store. There is more information on that below! When a supply drop starts, a boss bar appears at the top of your screen indicating the direction of the supply drop. Santa's Supply Drop will then throw out up to 25 "Candy Canes".



    Right clicking these Candy Canes will open up a shop, where you can purchase various things. This includes exclusive Chrismas 2018 tags, Christmas related armor, snowballs, Christmas cake (that gives slowness and regeneration), and even TRIAL RANKS! Compared to our previous Christmas event, we have updated the Christmas shop to include more exciting items!

    [​IMG]

    - Added "Christmas outfit" to Candy Cane store for 120 total cane canes. This effect gives a speed boost for each part of the set you wear.
    - Added Santa outfit to Candy Cane store for 90 total candy canes.
    - Added Rudolf outfit to Candy Cane store for 60 total candy canes.
    Added Elf outfit to Candy Cane store for 30 total candy canes.
    - Added Grinch tag to Candy Cane store for 35 candy canes (more info below).
    - Added Polar tag to Candy Cane store for 50 candy canes (more info below).
    - Added Penguin tag to Candy Cane store for 50 candy canes (more info below).
    - Added Snowflake tag to Candy Cane store for 65 candy canes (more info below).
    - Added Black Jesus tag to Candy Cane store for 65 candy canes (more info below).
    - Added 1 Permit to Candy Cane store for 40 candy canes.
    - Added Kit Drugs (one-time) to Candy Cane store for 5 candy canes.
    - Added 14 days ELITE trial to Candy Cane store for 50 candy canes.
    - Added 30 days VIP trial to Candy Cane store for 25 candy canes.
    - Decreased price of Christmas Cakes from 4 to 3 candy canes. These are useful in PvP situations to get some regeneration.
    - Decreased price of Clausinator from 250 to 50.
    - Decreased price of Devils Snowballs from 3 to 2 candy canes. These are useful in PvP situations.
    - Re-organized Candy Cane store.

    The Christmas event also includes Nice Lists, which can be bought from the store to start Santa Drops. It also includes Naughty Lists, which you can use to put a bounty of Candy Canes on a specific player. Refer to the Sale & Store Updates of this post below for more info!

    [​IMG]
    Among the several other things within the Christmas shop, we present to you the new 2018 Christmas tags. Please note, the previous Christmas tags from the preceding year are no longer obtainable at the moment. These Christmas tags are highly exclusive, so don't miss them!

    We have launched a 10% sale on our store at store.grandtheftmc.net. So whether its that rank upgrade you have wanted forever, or those permits, now is the time!

    In addition to a snazzy sale, we have also updated our store to contain Chrismas Exclusive items! These items include Christmas Parcels containing Candy Canes, as well as Santa's Nice Lists, and Naughty lists! Take your Christmas to the next level and head over to the Christmas category of our store to find out more!

    [​IMG]
    Along with this new Christmas Event, we have continued improving features and patching bugs on GTM in order to improve player experience. Below are the new changes made in this patch.

    - Fixed issue with players getting the same trial rank as a reward and not extending the duration of the trial rank.

    --- [SPECIAL] ---
    Clausinator:
    - Changed effect and sounds of the Clausinator.
    - Changed fire delay from 40 to 5.
    - Increases base damage of Clausinator from 0.001 to 3.0

    [​IMG]
    As usual, the GTM team is excited to hear what you think. Please leave below any thoughts, comments, feedback or suggestions below! We try our best to continue to improve your experience as a player and we will love to hear back from you. So tell us how we are doing! We will try to get back to as many of you as possible.

    Well, actually if you read the patch we did buff the clausinator :>>.

    So I see where you are coming from but you are not compleletly right.. ;)

    Sorry :p

    Unfortunatly we had to temporarily disable the casino event system to allow for the xmas event to take place.

    I know this sucks, but this was the best solution at the time. :(

    Sounds good. At least it may be slightly useful in pvp now.

    Not what i ment...

    I ment it's worth nothing now, and i hardly consider making it useful in pvp buffing it. Especially since it was origionally useless.

    Also why was casino disabled, i havent heard a single reason other then "because of the christmas event". Ive been told that it wasn't possible for them to run at the same time even tho that's a lie. They have nothing to do with each other.

    At least let us cash in chips...

    The casino system runs of the same eventing system that the christmas event uses. The system can only ha dle 1 event at a time. We were unfortunatly unable to fix it in time to have the events run side by side.

    Sorry for being unclear in my previous comment. I would have clearified it before you decided to call us "liers" xD.

    Ok i probably should have chosen other words, but it still doesn't make sense.

    Is it possible for you guys to let us cash in chips?

    Also is it possible to see when the next package will drop? Or is it on a set schedule?

    (If this was in the announcement sorry for my reading incapabilities)

    <3 u skylicks

    Also sky, it seems like the packages on gtm4 are broken. They kinda stop in mid air and i havent seen any canes come out, is this just me being dumb?

    Not without either changing the code backend or disabling the chrismas event. Ill look in to it. If you see me in game msg me about it and Ill try.

    No. You cant see when. But they will drop at a random time between 2 and 3 hours from the previous drop.

    Ahh, does it not work at all? Just sometimes? And does it stay stuck in the air?

    Note that it doesnt drop candy canes until its on the ground. I posted a video on the announcement as a demo.

    Its just visual, they seem to stack on top of each other in midair. Otherwise the event does work as it should.

    And i will def message you, you should just be able to create a new temporary npc with the trades shouldn't you!?
