Every fact about World Events by game version, newest first.

VersionWhat we know
Planned
  • A scheduler that layers events is planned, keeping PvP events common and Legendary Grove rarer.
  • More work on World Events and PvP is planned beyond the next test.
  • A deeper, more unique World Event loot pool is planned to draw Tier 4 players across the map.
  • PvP events will get their own category and roll more often, possibly always one active.
  • Idea of events near server end where the server wins or loses together; not decided. Unconfirmed
  • Devs have brainstormed many more PvE and PvP events and plan to add them.
  • The upper-right UI shown during hold-out world events is being redone.
  • Rewards are not yet worth the time; stronger rewards are planned via item power and quality.
  • Developers want world events that place high-level content in low-level areas.
  • Higher-tier content could be mixed into lower-tier areas.
Dev build
  • Designed to pull servers together; one defends a caravan, another defends an outpost against destruction.
  • The map marker for the Mojave world event incorrectly showed in South Coast; a known bug.
  • Currently all world events share one scheduler, so Salvador Rojos shows up on the same schedule as PvP events.
  • World event scheduler was rewritten; PvP events now have their own channel.
  • PvP events happen far more often than in the March alpha.
March alpha
  • Alpha 1 World Events: Caravan Defense, Outpost Defense, Legendary Grove, Salvador, Contraband Caches and the Outlaw Crate.
  • In Alpha 1 all World Events shared one frequency table, so only one could be picked at a time.
