Default Killing Floor Summer Sideshow Event 2012!

Killing Floor Summer Sideshow 2012 Trailer - YouTube

The Killing Floor Summer Sideshow event is back for a limited time and starts right now!! Knowing just how much fun everyone has had with Killing Floor special events, we could hardly let the Summer pass without celebrating it in true Killing Floor style. So all your favorite Summer Sideshow freaks are back, with the addition of a new map, new achievements, new weapons all for free to anyone that owns the game. We've also cooked up new playable DLC characters for you and created our craziest trailer to date - think Killing Floor monster truck rally commercial style!

The new free content starts with the map Hellride - a cute little carnival ride through Heaven and Hell only the monsters on this ride are real. The event also brings 5 new weapons for you, also free. For all those of you who like to collect the playable characters, Steampunk Mr Foster can now be unlocked again, but only for the duration of the event. Also included is a brand new DLC pack of 4 playable characters - the Urban Nightmare crew.

On top of that, we're introducing Harold Lott, a tribute to the whole Loadsamoney generation and bastion of 1980s taste. Not only can you all run around shouting "Money, money, money" in-game - with Harold's special particle effect, you will be able to leave your own trail of dosh all over the place!

The event runs from 5th July through 23rd July, so make the most of it!

We've got a new trailer for you, so check it out. And don't forget the new web page at: http://www.killingfloorthegame.com/summer2012/.

Summer Sideshow Event Details
  • Free for everyone that owns Killing Floor – auto downloaded through Steam
  • All new level – Hellride - experience heaven and hell as you follow the course of this doomed carnival ride
  • All creatures in game replaced with freak-shows themed monsters including Pukey the Clown and his side-kick, the Fleshclown
  • 16 new Summer Sideshow achievements return only for the duration of the event
  • 9 All new achievements added
  • 5 new official weapons - the IJC community weapon pack has been polished up and made an official part of the game
  • “Steampunk Mr Foster” playable character Unlockable again for the duration of the event
  • New DLC Character Pack - "Urban Nightmare"

For all the details on the Summer Sideshow event visit the event web page at: http://www.killingfloorthegame.com/summer2012/. Killing Floor is available now on Steam (http://store.steampowered.com/app/1250/), all major digital outlets and in stores across the world. Don't forget to check out the new trailer, share it with all your friends, force them to watch it over and over again... well you get the idea! The Summer Sideshow event only lasts until 23rd July, so don't miss your chance to experience the gaming event of the summer!

Polished and official IJC sounds great! The skins and map look good too.

So did .44s get reweighed, or have mk23s made them entirely pointless besides looking cool?

Servers will need to be created and updated with the SteamCMD tool from now on - http://wiki.tripwireinteractive.com/...illingFloor%29

After switching Killing Floor over to Steams new byte patching system, HLDS is obsolete and no longer used. We are sorry we didn't get information out about this change sooner. It system change came together fairly fast here and sadly happened to land right when we had the event planned. There will be better communication on this topic and others in the future.

Now if only my download of the update could go a little faster.
(Which is a problem on my side, mentioned to show anticipation, not a complaint)

Thanks guys!

Yoshiro: Better to reveal the facts than plead ignorance and silence (Like SOME developers we know...). We still love you. ^^
