Content Update Feb 3rd 2010
Attention Soldiers!
For 2/3, you will get the chance to prove yourself in the ultimate test of survival, Last Man Standing, the newest mode in Combat Arms. You’ll have some new supplies to aid you in your battle: new weapons, new gear, and a new specialist item. Central Command has you covered! Good luck, brave men and women of Combat Arms...you'll need it.

Operation Survival: Last Man Standing
*
To succeed in the newest mode, you must be the last man standing at the end of the round. The stakes have never been higher than in this battle of life and death. *
Quarantine Mode Regen
Quarantine Mode is back, better than ever! In this redesigned version of Quarantine Mode, the Infections begin with much fewer HP with which to survive. However, the Infection’s HP will be recovered when they are stationary for 3 seconds. 10% of their HP will be recovered every extra second they stay still after the 3-second period. Additionally, the number of Host Infections has been adjusted, so the battle between Humans and the Infected will truly be a fight to remember.
New NX Items:
M39 EMR Desert – a new Sniper rifle!

Tanker Vest – Style and protection, what more could a soldier want?
*
New Specialist Item:
First Aid Kit - Heal your entire team with this item!
