After a very long wait, we are finally bringing out the update!
Syaan has worked hard and is bringing out the largest map expansion NFS:SA has seen so far. And it is called Bikernieki. It is a forested area based on a real-life piece of NE Europe and boasts a full-fledged sports base that features a GT racing track, kart track, rallycross track; infrastructure such as parkings, garages, housing area, high-speed roads, scenic views and much more. The new expansion is connected to mainland San Andreas.
Aside from just being available in freerun, the new expansion will now host a new URL location (third after Bayview Speedway and LSAP) and is called Bikernieki Sports Base!
It also features several new maps (look below in this post), although at the moment many maps are not finished and will be released a bit later.
MatthewChow went out of his retirement and revamped the looks of Bayview Speedway. It now features more details, shadows and scenery. You can change the fidelity of new effects in F11 - Video - Map and Track Settings, however, some details may not appear after changing to a higher preset, so you might need to go to the nearest garage/shop or better, reconnect.

See you on the server while we are waiting for larger updates!
On 4th March 2021, there will be exactly five years since server started!

Many special URL events with high rewards multiplier (+minimercy)
Due to this special occasion, we decided to organize
the legendary Hunt The Staff event!
The event will start at ~18:00 polish time on Saturday 6th March 2021.
During the event Staff Members will be hidden around whole SA map and players will have to find them, just like a game of hide and seek!
Some info and rules:
Hidden Staff Members won't be visible on radar and nametag will be displayed only if you are close enough
Staff Members will be hidden in common places, easily accessible for everyone without stunts. If it turns out to be too hard to find someone, they will start driving around the place.
Staff Members will use their own vehicles, they can be in any car currently available on the server.
If you'll find someone then you have to write on global chat his name and his car.
The reward for finding a Staff Member will be 10 DAYS OF PREMIUM - but one player is only allowed to find one Staff Member.
During the event you will have a small board about hidden members on screen in the freerun mode.
UPDATE: Congratulations to the winners!
