• Another's way to exploit the game as been solved
• Changed structure of server bin to add new staff feature
• New admin panel is now live with a tons of new tools to help staff during research etc..
• Add the Top Monthly Donator system.

How top monthly donator work ?

Rewards are based on your total donations for the current month. The top 3 donors hold the podium — rank 1, 2, and 3. It's a live competition: if someone out‑donates you, the podium shifts, and everything resets on the 1st of each month for a fresh race.

What you get?

An exclusive podium title — a different one for each rank (1st, 2nd, 3rd).

A special speed pet — gives you extra movement speed in town, plus others bonus soon.

And as a permanent trophy title you keep forever, even after you leave the podium

Which character gets it?

When you reach the top 3, the reward is applied automatically. To deliver it safely, you may be disconnected once — you'll see a message like "Applying your donor reward - reconnect in a few seconds." Just log back in and your reward will be there. If your pet slot is already taken, the pet lands in your inventory — just equip it.

If another player out‑donates you, you move down or leave the podium and lose the temporary title + pet — but you keep your permanent trophy title for the highest rank you reached. Everything recalculates continuously and resets monthly.

War & Arena protection

If you're in the middle of a Strategy Point war, Battle Arena, Infinity Field fight, we won't interrupt you. Your reward will simply apply the next time you naturally relog — so you'll never get pulled out of a battle to get your rewards !

Have a fun players!

This new system called "Aegis Buff," it doesn't simply consider only the players connected to the map. It calculates each player's power based on their stats, items, and fixed/enchanted bonuses. It also counts the number of players, checks the last five strategy points and their results, and, in addition, counts the number of kills/deaths for each nation on the maps related to the SP/MS/AB. All of this is used to calculate the true and current power of the players present. Each player will have a combat "value" and an impact on the current war. The charm will be given to the weakest nation as soon as a 5% difference is reached between nation.

About color name, wing and title manager, you will see only your actual equiped in the list, this is totaly normal and intended, players will get soon every wing unlocked in the wing inventory, same for title, and color name. If you have buy multiple color name on the SAME GEAR, please contact me 🫡

[3.7.3.60]

• Fix an exploit used by a player, discovered yesterday this is now fixed.

Hello @everyone,

We know that some of you are hoping to play with friends you’ve made on the battlefield. To make this happen, we’re going to start by manually adjusting the player balance, beginning with moving 9 ANI players to the BCU faction.

To do this, we’re offering approximately 9 BCU players the opportunity to swap places with ANI players and switch factions.

Please open a ticket with the following information:

• The IDs of the accounts you are using and wish to transfer, along with a description of your most valuable items

In order for the transfer to take place, we will need to ensure a balance between the players involved.

For your information, we are currently discussing a new transfer rule: This rule will aim to prevent players who switch from requesting to switch too often. We are considering a cooldown period of approximately 6 to 18 months. A poll will be conducted shortly

Thank you

Hey everyone just wanted to make a small announcement, as we are getting SEVERAL tickets about switching nations, moving with brigs etc.

Currently, our stance is that we are NOT allowing nation transfers.

There are 2 ways to change a nation; One is to create a new character on the opposite nation (we are in the works of laying out a rule for this, as it has become as serious issue for staff/ balance) OR you can change your nation TEMPORARILY, by becoming a mercenary.

Romu will be making an upcoming announcement about the creating a new character rule, moving forwards. And i will be adding a few more players to the current mercenary roster (which is again, temporary)

Thanks!

Hello @everyone , when you crash the game create a file called: CrashInfo64.dmp or CrashInfo.dmp into the main folder.

This files own IMPORTANT information's to make me able to FIX YOUR BUG,

🔥 PLEASE SEND ME YOUR DMP IF YOU GET ONE! 🔥

Just give your DMP to me in private message with a short explanation of what you was doing in game when crash and is enough!

Some players can confirm, I have already fixed some bug reported 🫡

Hello pilots @everyone

Welcome to OldSchoolRivals he’s now your new ! He’s available to you in game and on Discord for support, communication, events, and more. :peepoGivelove:

Please be kind to him he’s new here.

I wish you all the best against ❤️

I will be finalizing Mercenaries and going through the transfers at the end of the month, please have an application ticket in no later than 29/3 if you wish to offer your help to balance out some wars (ANI to BCU.)

Upon opening a ticket in that regard i will send you a brief list of things to know and consider for both yourself and I to vet players for the mercenary program.

See you all out there, big things coming 🙂

@everyone

Hello Pilots 🛩️

We are searching for a new tGM now so if youd like to join please create a ticket and describe yourself in creative way to let us know you.

The description that would be detailed, humouristic and creative would have extra points 😂

Hello @everyone , Dear OldSchoolRivals pilots, we would like to offer our sincerest apologies for the current situation.

As you may all know, the game's source code and our personnal informations have been published on an internet forum by an ex-member of our team. We are taking this situation very seriously and are working tirelessly to secure our information and prevent this from happening again.

We strongly recommend that you remain vigilant against phishing attempts targeting the email addresses you have registered with your various game accounts.

We understand that this has been a blow to the morale of many players, and we would like to inform you that there will be in-game compensation in the coming days, once the situation has been resolved and we have cleared all our support tickets. Please know that this situation has been very time-consuming for all staff members, and we are trying to be as available as possible for you while also managing our real-life responsibilities.

Thank you for your understanding and patience. I hope you will keep enjoying this game, and continue to have some good memories with your friends. We remain at your disposal for any questions you may have, by tickets or PMs. I would also like to thank the players that helped other players who had difficulties with language barrier, with the tickets and the IP whitelisting. You guys shine and make this community greater. ❤️

@everyone

Server is now running under firewall...**

Player have to give to us his ipv4 to be able to connect to our server. (Forget exitlag...)

Please use to give to us your ipv4, to found your ipv4 just go to this website: https://whatismyipaddress.com/

For players who have dynamic ip change no problem, we will be multiple people from team able to add/remove/modify ip of players when is needed.

As announced all gear, inv, bank and others is here and nothing has been moved.

Remember recover your password by our "forget password" features on our website.

(Normally this will work for everyone today, if not just pm me 😉 )

⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️

Important rules to know, if a player think to give the ip from another person, in a way to make damage to our server or anything else bad, i will just block back ip and delete all account of the players 🫠

⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️

@everyone Because of a issue with inetpub/forte will the server and website be down for the next few hours to secure your accounts. After the passwords of all accounts are changed, OSR will be back online. If you are using your OSR Credentials somewhere else then on OSR you should change them immediately.

BANANA SYSTEM COMPREHENSIVE EXPLANATION

What is the Banana System?

• It is a balance subsystem that runs independently on OSR anytime a scheduled War type event (Outposts, SPs, MS) spawns.

What does the Banana system do?

• It is a dynamic balance system that calculates minute to minute, the players on the server, in warring maps, alive, alts vs mains, by level

What is a a nonwarring map vs a warring map?

• A nonwarring map is: Both nation towns, Stones ruin, Lumein Volcano, SSB, ID, Rob city, Barren, Vat lab, RCO, HKH, Eopi, event maps, Watermelon Island Gark, Atum 1 and 2 Chaos, DC, FF, FFA, IW and all mission maps! All other maps are NOT on the exception lists

What is considered an alt vs alive?

• The FIRST account logged in on that PC is considered the main account! So if you log on an mg buffbot 1st, and then an ag to war. That gear is not counted dead or alive and the dead MG buffbot is now counting as -1 player for counts

What is the ACTUAL banana formula?

- EXAMPLE: Total accounts logged in: 130, Check players in warring maps (also not dead or in town and are main accounts) ANI:15 BCU 21, total players in banana buff calculations = 36. ANI point value 1485/10 = 148.5 BCU point value 2100/10 210 (15 * 99lvl gears) (21 level 100+ gears) 210.0 - 148.5 = 61.5 = Banana level 2

What are the banana level point thresholds?

• Banana starts at banana level 1 - 50points+ in difference as shown above. Banana 2 at 60 points, banana 3 at 70 up to 140+ yielding banana 10 maximum

How does point value per player work?

• Player level / 10 = point value. Example Level 100 = 10 points, level 93 = 9.3 points, player level 115 = 10 points. All players from 100+ are worth 10 points.

Putting this together, i learned things that i had not, explaining why sometimes there is an odd discrepancy in the banana levels feeling not enough or too much. I think the biggest things to understand are the safe maps and having the right account logged in first.

@everyone

Our OSR-Team wishes you happy holidays and a good time with your loved ones ❤️

Hello everyone,

Server Maintenance arround 22:00h today

(Reason is to handle our MS at both Nations)

@everyone

OSR - 2025 XMAS event is now LIVE!

@everyone

Hello pilots, the Christmas event is starting soon (in a few hours). We suggest that our players use their Christmas killmarks from previous XMAS events before this year's event begins.

@everyone

dear pilots!

today arround 20:30 SV time i' will giving an DGA :peepoCheer::peepoCheer::WHEN_DGA::FeelsBirthdayMan:

btw thanks you an much for the cute dm's to my birthday + in 🙏:peepoGivelove:

Lastly, ticket submission:

• Please understand that all staff are volunteer, we are in many different timezones and all have jobs, families, lives, etc and cannot be turbo online as much as we would wish we can.
• When submitting a report, either a bug or player issue, PLEASE submit a video recording (Most modern GPUs have built in screen recording software as well as millions of low impact, free to use screen recording software) DO NOT CROP THE SCREENS! Sending in a pic or a video of just some words or an action does nothing to show the staff what had happened, when it happened, how long it happened for etc etc etc.
• After you have submitted a ticket/ report, please understand that certain topics/ issues have to be handled or at least involved with some specific staff members, and as i stated above, there MAY be a time delay with their lives to be available. So as always, we appreciate patience.

Secondly, as you've seen in the There has been a common bug abuse going on in which players are either alt+tabbing, or esc-main+enter to cause immediate logouts and therefore deny KMs to players in open PVP.

The staff team has agreed that this is clearly bug exploitation, and is against the rules.

We ask that players that do this, understand that there is players watching/ recording, and we have been reasonably lenient, but as more reports come in, and it has become more prominent, we know that the staff need to start imposing disciplinary actions, especially to those that are repeat offenders.

If you are looking to report a player, we prefer videos (obviously) and if there are multiple instances that is also preferred, but we have notes on those already reported.

• TLDR: Dont do it- instead pvp, die, respawn, repeat.
