Trivia
- TheYeti bundle is actually a White Ghillie Suit used for snipers in arctic situations.
- The Reconversion Update must be obtained before the Winter Update since it will cause a bug for some users to not have the bundle.
- Winter Update no longer exists since the game has been updated to the Urban Update rather then being reconverted to its original state. Note to all players to open the game before starting the update as this may cause data corruption.
- The Winter Update saw a change in background on the home screen, to the Nocturnal Snowfall map theme.
