Seasons: why the server starts over
On a PvP/Faction server, a map that never restarts ends up frozen: the same factions hold the same land, and joining halfway is pointless. Seasons exist to prevent that.
A ranking and an ending
Performance is measured throughout the season. A season concludes; it does not drag on forever.
One more chapter
Every season leaves a trace: its theme and the community videos join the Book of ScandiCraft, which has told the server's story since June 2014.
Frequently asked questions about seasons
How long does a season last?
The start date is announced in advance. The end date is not: a season ends when the way the game has evolved calls for it, and the reset is announced before it happens.
Do I lose everything when the season changes?
The map and the competition restart. What carries over — cosmetics, statuses, rewards — is announced before each reset.
Do I have to play from day one?
It is the most exciting moment, because everyone starts together. But a season is designed so a faction can also get going later.
