Summary

Arena can be considered the revamped Elimination Gamemode from the R2D 2014. Each wave, players are required to kill a certain amount of zombies in a limited time. Each player will get a random item from a pool and some cash after completing a wave. They will also get fully healed. The survivors win if they complete the 4 waves, which are as follows:

• Wave 1: Kill 50 zombies. Survivors get 50$ and a random item for surviving.
• Wave 2: Kill 75 zombies. Survivors get 100$ and a random item for surviving.
• Wave 3: Kill 100 zombies. Survivors get 150$ and a random item for surviving.
• Wave 4: Kill 150 zombies. Survivors get 300$, and a random item for surviving and win.

Each round gets harder as more and more zombies need to be killed as more and more survivors die throughout the waves.

If any survivor dies, they will be turned into a zombie until the round, not wave, is over. If survivors fail to kill the last remaining zombies in the allotted time, they will lose. Unlike Elimination from R2D 2014, there isn't an unlimited amount of time to kill the zombies.

Levels from the Zombie Leveling System persist between waves.

Tips

• After a wave ends, a survivor can get one of these following items:
  • Grenade
  • Molotov
  • Pills
  • Airstrike
  • Medkit
  • Flashbang
  • Prune Juice
  • Jerry Can
  • Propane
• If a survivor dies before a wave starts, they become unrevivable.
  • This also applies to the last phase, whereas when a survivor dies, they automatically go to Spectate and are unrevivable.
• Buying "Tag Objective" from the In-Game Store is incredibly useful for finding the last zombies throughout a map.
  • However, the duration of which the zombie locations are shown is very short.
  • Spin your camera around and keep your eyes peeled.

Trivia

• Prior to v1.0.0b, there was a glitch which randomly occurred in which a zombie would switch to Spectating and stay Spectating after a survivor killed them.
  • This rendered survivors unable to reach the kill limit needed to move on.
• Panama Beach originally was compatible with Arena but was removed in v0.7.7 as people were abusing the water in the map to hide from survivors.
  • This Gamemode has since been made compatible once again with Panama Beach in v0.8.5a.
