Welcome to the 2025 Screenshot Contest. From scenic views to action scenes—capture your cinematic screenshot(s) and submit them here: ~~**Submission Form**~~ Winning submissions may be featured as loading screens, on the store page, or in other locations. As a reward, winners will receive the **Mythical Shutterbug Screenshot Contest Sweater** and **Mythical Shutterbug Instant Camera** cosmetics. Submissions are open until **April 15th**! Find the complete submission guidelines on the Submission Form. Get creative, and good luck! --- **EDIT:** Submissions have closed! We're happy to see so many participants – with nearly 1,800 submissions! Now – we're beginning to review the submissions. This process will take some time. Stay tuned for a future game update which will include many of the winning submissions. We're also looking to include some winning submissions out-of-game (such as on the game's store page) in the future as well! Once we've reviewed all submissions, we will begin distributing the **Screenshot Contest Sweater** and **Instant Camera (Shutterbug)** cosmetics to any winning participants. Those items can take up to 72 hours (after we've begun distribution) to arrive in your inventory. You should automatically receive a Steam notification once the item has arrived in your Steam inventory. Thank you for participating! :) ##### Changelog **Balance Tweaks** - All vanilla magazines can be salvaged. - Increased player movement air strafing acceleration. **Quality of Life** - Added a separate keybind [Left Shift] for skipping item context menu action crafting menu. - Added a HUD element when outbound voice chat is turned off (optional). Helpful if multiplayer safety menu was skipped. - Prevent quick-salvaging mythicals or items with kill counters or ragdoll effects. This should help reduce cases of accidentally deleting valuable items, but we can still assist through our support site when/if it happens. - Ping display now shows Steam Networking Sockets client transport calculated ping. This is more accurate than the (now fallback) ping calculation. **Anti-Cheat** - Show a disconnect message for HWID spoofer ban. (Previously a "shadowban.") - Removed once-per-input-frame limit on server-side line-of-sight checks. This better protects against bullet hit spoofing at the cost of higher server CPU usage. - Increased server hit validation leniency against players in vehicles. Reduces false negatives when shooting fighter jet pilots. **Servers** - Added warning on loading screen when game connection ping is higher than in server browser. - Changed default admin commands Internet server list filter to Any rather than No. - Servers with a GSLT can be bookmarked without setting "bookmark host." This makes it easier to reconnect to private servers. - Clarified anycast proxy is often used for DDoS protection in warning. - Added an option for server host to indicate an anycast A2S proxy is in use. When manually indicated the ping warning isn't red. **Server Curation** - Added support for built-in "recommended" curators. This will allow us to convert some of our moderation lists to the newer curation feature. - Added server curation option for default action: Show, hide, or move to bottom. - Curation list shows web list dat parsing errors. - Entering a workshop file URL in server curation field subscribes to it. **Modding** - Added NPC Vendor options to override item descriptions. - Added Destructible object option to alert nearby zombies. - Added animal option to prevent move during startle animation. - Added support for traps requiring power to deal damage. - Added gun option to require aiming to shoot. - Added gun default magazine support for spawn tables allowing paintball guns to spawn with a hopper attached. - Added Lunar New Year holiday _[Truncated at 4000 characters — full notes: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/304930/view/506195274633317955]_
