📰 HWS Announcements

Dear HWS Community @everyone

first of all I want to thank all of you for another successful season start! <:hwsstar:535932728886034439> It’s always great to see so many players enjoying their time!
I am currently in the process of cleaning up and improving whatever is urgently missing/broken. Then I will concentrate on integrating and preparing Part 2 of a fully ingame integration of HWS+ into HWS RE.

But there is one thing I want to invite you for:

40 000 Playhours in Empyrion | A HV Deathmatch Tournament

“Everyone needs a hobby” is my slogan for crazy people who are doing crazy things. So here we are :nerd_face:

I made a nostalgic video for my last 30 000 playhours (2023) which shows many great moments from the community, from you from the last 10+ years:

So, celebrating my 40k playhours in Empyrion (which I will hit next week) I am hosting a HV Deathmatch Event on 20th-21th August - this Thursday to Friday (I start at the evening on HWSâș RE EU and then host it also on HWSâș RE NA | so technically everyone could participate twice). We start <t:1787248800:F> (this is converted to your local time)

The Rules and Motivation :trophy:

  • You build your own HV and fight against other built HVs!
  • This requires some rules of course:
    • Max. Class Size 1 / Complexity 1
    • The dimensions should not exceed 17 meters in any direction (34 blocks)
    • It must have legal obtainable weapons/blocks as if you would gather/spawn it in a Survival Game (so no HWS Garage Alien Technology etc.)
    • You send me your HV blueprint via PM and I will check it until 20th August 18:00 server time. Every submitted blueprint after that time is rejected!
    • We play in a dedicated Arena - Observers are welcome and get free Popcorn and Vodka
    • Depending how many players participate we have to set a max. time for every fight. Example max. 15 minutes. After that time I will check at a Station Service nearby how much damage was done / how much the repair would cost, the Winner is who took less damage
    • I will stream the whole tournament
    • K.O. Tournament Knockout Tree => We do the initial pairing random and then you climb up until the finals
    • :1st_place_medal: 1st Place: 1x Garage Ship of your Choice + 500 HWS Ingots + 1000 HWS DNA + 1 month free HWS Master Patron Membership
    • :2nd_place_medal: 2nd Place: 1x Garage Ship of your Choice + 250 HWS Ingots + 500 HWS DNA
    • :3rd_place_medal: 3rd Place: 1 Garage Ship of your Choice + 100 HWS Ingots + 100 HWS DNA
    • :sports_medal: Every participant: 1 Garage Ship of your Choice
    • You can participate on EU and NA, but only win the medals once (the next eligible player in the ladder would get the price then)

If you have questions, please feel free to post them here: Discord

I hope to see you and your best PvP HV builds on Thursday and we just have a good time together.
I plan to host more events myself like these in the upcoming future (SV Races, FPS Arena and more)

I honestly thank you for allowing me to spend my time for you - especially a big shout out to our HWS Patrons who make all of this possible! <:hwsstar:535932728886034439>
Thank you!
