Because of this, they are highly valuable and can start impromptu PK wars over who will get to open the crates, as only one person can have the items of a particular crate.Ī zombie who smashes open a crate does not get any items instead, all of the items inside are lost, and, since the most recent airdrop, grants the zombie XP.
When opened or bashed open by survivors, the person who opened gains a random number of items and bullets, equal to several days worth of searching (even if this would take them above their inventory limit). Crates are dropped on 'special days', such as holidays and the game's birthday as a gift for players. If your character notices a helicopter passing overhead, then you can be sure a supply crate has been dropped somewhere nearby. Supply crates contain supplies airdropped by military helicopters to help support survivors.
