HWS Frontier

Hello, @everyone.

In a few moments, I'll be starting both servers again.
With this wipe, multiple bigger changes are coming, and as mentioned previously, the seasons will now last one month each.

Full Rework of the Quests System

This is probably the update with this wipe, in my opinion at least. There have been multiple minor problems with quests here and there, and some were too difficult, and so on. Now, the quests has been completely rebuilt from scratch. The quests (now "jobs" or "contracts") will be given to you by NPCs that can be found all over the map. With this, the experience should overall be better in all ways, although it may require a little more transportation from your side.
I look forward to hearing your about this change.

PvE Week (Mon-Thu) and PvP Weekends (Fri-Sun)

Hopefully this change should improve the quality of the PvP combat. It'll give everyone the opportunity to prepare "safely" until the weekend, and get their defenses up and ready. It'll be very clear in-game when the PvE and PvP periods start, so it won't catch you by surprise.

Night Zombies

During the nights, there'll now spawn zombies near you. They are absolutely capable of fighting back, so you should prepare to defend yourself.
I might have to balance this during the season, depending on how it goes. If I do, I'll of course mention it in the #hws-rust-changelog channel.
The zombies will not attack sleeping players, and you should be safe inside safe-zones.

Beyond all the above, I have also made various smaller changes.
For the full changelog, please see #hws-rust-changelog.
