Once Human Development Team

Dear Metas,
Since the beginning of the new season, we've received a wealth of feedback. We’ve noticed that the demand for Hard Difficulty servers is far beyond our expectations. Currently, the number of existing Hard Difficulty servers cannot meet our players’ needs.

After a brief internal discussion, we've made some adjustments based on your suggestions and needs.
1. Due to high demand for more Hard Difficulty servers, we will monitor online activity in real-time and open additional servers as needed. Announcements regarding these openings will be made on our official platforms, allowing players to select their preferred server and plan their playtime accordingly.

We plan to open registration for the following Hard Difficulty servers in advance:
North America:
Registration for PVE01-X0050 begins on August 20, 2024, at 7: 00 AM (PDT), labeled Voidbringer, Regeneration, Hard.
Europe:
Registration for PVE01-X0050 begins on August 20, 2024, at 7: 00 AM (UTC), labeled Voidbringer, Regeneration, Hard.

We will continuously update the list of servers that will be opened in advance and announce it on the official accounts of our channels. Please stay tuned.

Regarding Hard Difficulty servers that our players are highly concerned about, we will provide further explanations here:
In Hard Difficulty, the amount of Starchrom obtainable through various methods is approximately 8%-9% higher than in Normal Difficulty. This difference applies only to Starchrom obtained from Seasonal Objectives and Purification; rewards from other sources remain the same between Hard and Normal Difficulties.
For the Manibus/Evolution's Call scenario in Normal Difficulty, the combat difficulty has been increased compared to Novice Difficulty. Hard Difficulty offers greater challenges in survival and combat, catering to players seeking a more demanding experience. We aim to provide different difficulty levels to meet the needs of various players, ensuring everyone can find a suitable pace for the second season.

2. To accommodate a diverse range of players and support server development, we have decided to postpone the launch of the Normal Difficulty servers initially scheduled to open after August 20, 2024.
The list of servers with postponed opening:


Players who have already registered for the above servers can choose a different server. We will automatically cancel the registration for those who do not do so themselves in the next few days. We will also provide compensation to those affected by this adjustment.
*Hard Difficulty servers will remain on their original schedule.

We deeply value your input and understand the desire for co-op and more challenging experiences. Please continue to send feedback through official channels such as Discord and Customer Support. We are committed to addressing your concerns promptly.

Thank you for your support and we will continue to optimize the game content to bring everyone a better gaming experience!

Dear Metas,

We received your feedback, and taking into consideration the online sign-up statistics, we've decided to make the Hard PvE scenario, Manibus, available earlier. In the future, we will also arrange scenarios on different difficulty levels according to our players’needs.

There are differences between scenarios on different difficulty levels. Here's a breakdown of how it is.

Compared to the Normal Difficulty, the Manibus and Evolution's Call scenarios on Hard Difficulty differ in these ways:
1. Survival Challenges:
The Pollution Zone in the open world is larger, and all Pollution Zones have significantly higher Contamination.
Players lose Energy and Hydration twice as fast, and the duration of Full Energy and Hydration is shortened.
2. Combat Environments:
Monsters' stats, sensitivity, movement speed, and attack frequency are increased.
The monsters that spawn in the Territory Purification mode will be changed, with the difficulty raised.
3. Rewards:
The number of Starchroms you can obtain within a season is slightly raised (by about 8% to 9%).
①The number of Starchroms you can obtain by completing the seasonal objectives of each chapter is raised by 20%.
②The number of Starchroms you can obtain by purifying Eclipse Cortexes and Chaotic Cortexes is slightly raised (each Whisper Purification reward yields 10 more Starchroms, but the total cap remains unchanged).
*Other than that, the number of Starchroms you can obtain elsewhere remains the same as that on Normal Difficulty.

Dear Meta,

We're committed to addressing your thoughts in the Once Human community, and to resolving issues and enhancing the game accordingly. Here's a summary of the fixes we've implemented:

[h3]August 16[/h3]
1. Optimized the tip for spending Starchroms when pulling from the Wish Machine.
2. Fixed an issue where door frames would not snap to grid if a glass door frame cosmetic was applied.
① After the patch, door frame wall cosmetics can only be applied to door frame walls and full wall cosmetics can only be applied to full wall structures. The application of each cosmetic type is now clearer.
② If you previously applied a door frame or window frame wall cosmetic to a full wall, the cosmetic will be converted into the corresponding full wall cosmetic after the patch. Likewise, if you previously applied a full wall cosmetic to a door frame or window frame wall, the cosmetic will be converted into the corresponding door frame or window frame wall cosmetic.
③ Following the patch, if a wall cosmetic does not fit your desired design, you will need to remove the affected wall and build a new wall of your desired type, then reapply the corresponding cosmetic.
3. Fixed an issue where incorrect text was displayed for some modules. Modules are carried over between seasons.
4. Fixed a display issue affecting some Lightforge Collection items obtained from the Lightforge Loot Crate event.
5. Fixed an issue affecting the 50% discount for the first 10 pulls in the Lightforge Loot Crate event.
6. Fixed an issue where duplicate Lightforge Collection items obtained from the Lightforge Loot Crate event would not be automatically converted into Lightforge Relics.
