New Heroes

Fischer Galante Kunoichi
A masterful controller. An opportunistic attacker who dominates his foes with a deadly combination of damage and survivability. A robot berserker. Rushes headlong into combat shrugging off damage whenever he damages his enemies. Kurtz Black Op assassin, and Odachi’s loyal apprentice. Not to be underestimated, each is a skilled fighter, and a master of subterfuge.

Hey there,
could you please inform all players via Ingame-Message to close the app and install the update.
This „sneaky“ update screwed a little bit with us… at least with some players I‘ve talked to.

Just an idea :slight_smile:

P.S.:

Und so ganz scheint das mit dem Inspizieren und genaueren Infos noch nicht zu passen:

Bei einem Spieler steht über die Allianz Seite: „inaktiv seit 2 Wochen“
Über das Inspizieren bei zuletzt aktiv: vor 28 Tagen.

Der Spieler ist bei GEW, German Warriors und heißt NeoAlex…

Was stimmt denn jetzt? 28 Tage sind für mich nämlich 4 Wochen… :wink:

Nice update all around. Except for one change:

Having Hardscope take over Halloway’s spots for fragments, and moving Halloway up to Hard Mode District 8. That’s kinda not cool. Especially if someone had to work to unlock the original spots at 3 stars to begin with.

Why not add the rest of Mauler’s frags or Castellan to District 8 spots?

Just my 2 cents.

Awesome. Cannot wait to update

Stop crying, start grinding

Beta players get a special trim for profile picture?

I hope we will be refunded for our position loss… I had to get 30 Yaun lan fragments (dont remember his exact name)…

@Rollyhead, there isn’t a plan to. Just before we released the game globally we sent out an inbox message with a Thank You gift.

Yes, and thank you for that, i just like achievements and that extra trim that stands out XD

I think after this update, fortress is too op, causing a bit of unbalance in the game.

Could you elaborate a bit? Is it a particular skill? Too much damage?

It feels as though Fortress Damages too much after the Self-Heal. It goes off even when interrupted, which is strong, but ok. However even if he’s at full hp and heals for nothing he still seems to do damage for the full amount overhealed (I believe this is the case, correct me if I’m wrong).

It would be an interesting PvP mechanic where he only does the damage that he actually heals for. So if he starts his charge near full HP, it kinda acts as an anti-taunt, and if he starts his charge near death, it acts as a taunt where you try to burn him down before he does a full charge blast to three guys.

The update is soo cool. I am liking it.
