Once Human News

[p]Dear Meta,[/p][p] [/p][p]On July 18, 2025, at 10:00（UCT +0）, a limited quantity of items will be restocked on the official top-up page for Meta-Humans to purchase.[/p][p]We will gradually roll out more custom server creation access, so all Meta-Humans can customize their own unique servers. Stay tuned![/p][p] [/p][p]Once Human Development Team[/p]

[p]Dear Mates:[/p][p]The July 17 update will introduce two new ways of joining permanent servers.[/p][p][/p][h3]Method 1: Sign up for a permanent server[/h3][p]Whether you're in a normal or permanent scenario server, if your current scenario allows you to sign up for a new scenario, you can sign up to join an existing permanent server.[/p][p]NOTE:[/p][p]1) Sign-up rules for permanent scenario servers are the same as those for normal servers. Your character's level and scenario resources (including gear and consumables) will be reset. To retain this data, please wait until your current scenario ends. It will then be merged into a permanent server, preserving your progress.[/p][p]2) Cosmetics, titles, social relationships, and achievements will carry over between seasons as usual.[/p][p] [/p][h3]Method 2: Create a new character on a permanent server[/h3][p]You can also create a new character directly from the server list screen to join a permanent scenario server, without needing to sign up.[/p][p] [/p][h3]Additional Rules[/h3][p]1) Permanent scenario servers will support invite codes, allowing you to team up and play with your friends.[/p][p]2) If the permanent scenario servers are almost full, we will open additional servers as needed.[/p][p]3) Permanent scenario servers that you manually sign up for will only have one phase, and Scenario Challenges will not be available. We will introduce Scenario Challenges for permanent servers in the future.[/p][p] [/p][p]In addition, we will continue improving the permanent scenario server system to give players a more stable, flexible, and enjoyable world to explore![/p][p] [/p][p]Once Human Development Team[/p][p] [/p][p] [/p]

[p]Dear Metas,[/p][p]The Version 2.0.1 server maintenance and update is planned for July 16 at 4:00 PM (PT) and is expected to last about 2 hours (actual time may differ). Please plan your game time accordingly for the best experience.[/p][p]The update size is 2.3GB on PC, 570MB on Android, and 400MB on iOS(actual size may vary, non-updated clients will require 170MB additional patch). We recommend downloading the update over Wi-Fi.[/p][p]This update will introduce multi-mode accounts and characters, new content for customer servers, server overload prompts, a fill-light function for Camera mode, a new Lightforge Loot Crate: Choose 1 of 3, and various optimizations and bug fixes.[/p][p]Starchrom ×1,000, Mitsuko's Mark ×100, Starwish Token ×300, Detoxident ×3, and Blueprint Conversion Attempt ×3.[/p][p]Below are the details of this update:[/p][p][/p][h2]Content/Feature Updates[/h2][h3]Multi-Mode Account and Character Data Rules[/h3][p]To better serve the needs of different user groups, Once Human and Once Human: RaidZone will be split into separate modes. Once Human will continue to provide a deep and multifaceted survival experience, while Once Human: RaidZone will focus on fair and balanced PvP. Tap the Mode icon in the top-right corner of the login screen to switch between modes and try out their different content![/p][p]The rules differ in each mode.[/p][p]1. System and Data[/p][p]a) You can play Once Human and Once Human: RaidZone with the same account. The account character limit is shared between modes. When you select a mode, that mode's characters will be prioritized for display. You can also view all characters across all modes in the character list.[/p][p]b) Content that affects PvP balance (such as blueprints and mods) cannot be used in Once Human: RaidZone, but their data is retained under your account. Cosmetics (such as fashion pieces, vehicle skins, and furniture skins) can be used in all modes.[/p][p]c) While in Once Human: RaidZone, characters cannot access Eternaland and the Spacetime Backpack until they leave the RaidZone match.[/p][p]2. Sign-Ups and Transfers[/p][p]a) Characters in any mode can transfer to a scenario in another mode via the Scenario Sign-Up function. Scenarios from your current mode will be prioritized for display, so please choose carefully.[/p][p]b) Characters on closed servers can sign up for a new scenario via the Sign-Up system (bottom-right corner of the character list), without having to go to Eternaland first.[/p][p]3. Events[/p][p]a) Mode-exclusive events can only be viewed and participated in within their respective modes.[/p][p]b) Cross-mode events share the same completion progress. However, rewards may differ between modes. Resource and item rewards can be claimed once per mode. Cosmetic rewards can only be claimed once per account.[/p][p]c) The actual rules will be provided in each event's description.[/p][p]4. Battle Pass[/p][p]a) Battle Pass purchase status and level are shared across modes. However, in Once Human: RaidZone, some standard rewards and max-level loot crate rewards may be replaced with RaidZone-exclusive rewards.[/p][p]b) Battle Pass level is shared across modes. Resource and item rewards can be claimed once per mode.[/p][p]c) Battle Pass cosmetic and Silver Key rewards can only be claimed once per account.[/p][h3]New Custom Server Content[/h3][p]1. Added Endless Dream to custom servers. The server host can now select the Endless Dream scenario.[/p][p]2. Added badge cross-compatibility between custom and official servers.[/p][p]On July 17, at 9:00 PM (PT), more custom servers and upgrade packages will be available on the official top-up page.[/p][p]1. Maximum concurrent online players has been increased to 100. Purchase an upgrade package on the official top-up page to unlock this capacity![/p][p]2. On July 18, 2025, at 6:00 PM (PT), a limited number of servers will be restocked on the official top-up page.[/p][h3]Server Overload Prompts[/h3][p]To guarantee a smooth experience, we have added a server overload prompt to the ping indicator. The number represents your current network ping. If it turns red, it means the server is overloaded.[/p][p][/p][p]1. Q: When does server overload occur?[/p][p]A: Server overload often occurs when many players gather in the same area and engage in intense combat. The sudden spike in traffic exceeds the server's normal capacity, causing server overload.[/p][p]2. Q: What happens when the server is overloaded?[/p][p]A: You may experience lag while moving. Skill effects or damage calculations may also be delayed.[/p][p]3. Q: What do I do when the server is overloaded?[/p][p]A: To maintain a stable connection, avoid staying in areas with high player concentrations for extended periods. You can switch to a less crowded World or move to a different zone. If you encounter a server overload warning during an event, try reducing your attack frequency to minimize potential skill effect delays or damage lag.[/p][p]The server will dynamically allocate resources to accommodate the combat situation. Data processing speed will slowly recover, allowing players to resume normal gameplay, and the server overload prompt will disappear. We will continue to optimize server performance to minimize this issue. Thank you for your understanding and support![/p][h3]New Camera Fill-Light[/h3][p]A fill-light function has been added, giving you more control over your in-game photos.[/p][p][/p][h2]New Events[/h2][h3]New Limited-Time Wish Machine Prize Pools[/h3][p]After the update on July 16 (PT), the following new Wish Machine prize pools will be available for 3 weeks:[/p][p]Tranquil Frost: Includes the Legendary weapon blueprint: Silent Anabasis.[/p][p]Frost Domain: Includes the Legendary gear blueprints: Snow Camo Gloves, Blackstone Hood, Blackstone Jacket, and Blackstone Shoes.[/p][p]Perilous Explosives: Includes the Legendary weapon blueprint: Hazardous Object.[/p][h2]New Items in Shop[/h2][h3]Lightforge Loot Crate Choose 1 of 3: Techno Stampede, Arcane Celestial, Stardust Edge[/h3][p]Available: After the update on July 16, 4:00 PM (PT)[/p][p]Lightforge Loot Crate reruns!

Progress rewards include: loot crate themes, namecards, and a dyed version of the grand prize fashion.[/p][p]2. Choose one of three themed Lightforge Loot Crates. You cannot change your choice after drawing/purchasing/redeeming from one or purchasing its half-price Lightforge Ingots.[/p][p]3. The original draw probability, redemption cost, and guarantee system of each Loot Crate remain unchanged. Draw progress from previous runs is retained.[/p][p]Attention veteran Meta-Humans: If you participated in previous loot crate events but found no records, please log in with the character used for those crates first to trigger inheritance![/p][p]NOTE: The draw rules for reruns differ from the current Lightforge Loot Crate. Every 30 draws from Techno Stampede or Arcane Celestial guarantees one top prize, which will then be removed from the prize pool. Every 20 draws from Stardust Edge guarantees a Lightforge Gem, which can be used to redeem a top prize. Please read the event rules carefully![/p][p]* Lightforge Loot Crates are shared across all characters on the same account! You can switch characters to participate in purchases, but only one Lightforge Loot Crate can be chosen during each Choose 1 of 3 event.[/p][p][/p][p]* Lightforge Loot Crate Choose 1 of 3: Beach Bash, Hallow's Masquerade, Hype Party will be removed from sale after the update.[/p][h3]Upcoming Shop Updates[/h3][p]Available: July 24, 6:00 AM (server time)[/p][p]"Let your pulse and excitement peak with each engine roar!"[/p][p]The Blazing Speed character set (Epic Collection) and Speed Mania theme pack (Epic Collection) are coming.[/p][p]Fueled by pure passion!

Time to relax![/p][p][/p][h2]Optimizations[/h2][h3]Once Human: RaidZone - Early Access Optimizations[/h3][p]1. To improve the balance between attacks and defenders and prevent reconnaissance from being too easy, we have adjusted territory visibility. You can now only see nearby player territories, and faraway territories can no longer be seen. When setting a territory, the borders of neighboring territories will be visible.[/p][p][/p][p]2. You can no longer save territory buildings to a House Blueprint if you don't have the construction permissions.[/p][p]3. We will adjust Deviant types and distribution, reduce the number of Elite enemies, and increase the rewards for defeating them.[/p][p]4. The quantities of items sold by camp NPCs are now shared throughout the same scenario realm, rather than being independently counted for each player.[/p][p]5. To provide a place for safe trading and socializing in Once Human: RaidZone, we have established Safe Zones at the locations of four NPC merchants. Inside a Safe Zone, players cannot be hurt, nor use weapons, tactical items, or other attacks.[/p][p]* NOTE: If you log out while inside a Safe Zone, your HP will be automatically depleted after 30 minutes of inactivity.[/p][p]6.

Many players have reported that Raining Cash and Abyss Glance are underpowered. We plan to revamp Abyss Glance and adjust Raining Cash's suffixes (to improve its reloading and bolt-pulling experience) in a future update.[/p][p]We've also received your feedback on the class system. We will gradually optimize the combat experience and stat balance of the class system in future updates.[/p][p]To ensure a smooth transition, we will issue Blueprint Conversion Attempt ×3 to all players after this update.[/p][h3]Vehicles[/h3][p]1.

Freely choose one to open![/p][p]1.You can now claim tiered collection rewards based on how many Lightforge Collection items you've obtained from each crate.[/p][p]2. Same drop rates, carried-over progress:[/p][p]1)All original crate rules remain unchanged, including drop rates, prices, and guarantee mechanics. For details, refer to the specific Lightforge Crate rules.[/p][p]* For example, if the original loot crate guaranteed a Lightforge Collection item within 30 draws, the comeback version with the "choose 1 of 3" mechanism will follow the same rule and also guarantee a Lightforge Collection item within 30 draws. Likewise, if the original crate guaranteed a Lightforge Gem within 20 draws, the comeback version will follow suit and guarantee a Lightforge Gem within 20 draws.[/p][p]2)If you've participated in a previous rerun of the same theme, your guarantee progress will carry over. For example, if you've drawn 10 times before, your new count will start from 10/30.[/p][p]3.You're free to choose one of this round's three themed Lightforge Loot Crates to purchase.[/p][p]1)You may select one of the three themed crates to begin drawing or redeeming.

Once the maximum number of crate openings is reached, further openings are not allowed.[/p][p]3.Crate rewards marked as "Lightforge Collection" have special guarantees:[/p][p]1)Every 30 crates guarantees one "Lightforge Collection" item without duplicates. Once obtained, it will be removed from the prize pool, increasing the odds of other rewards.[/p][p]2)When a Lightforge Collection item is drawn, the guarantee counter resets, and the next one can be obtained within 30 crate openings.[/p][p]3)After all Lightforge Collection items are drawn, the guarantee no longer applies, and only other repeatable rewards can be obtained.[/p][p]* If you obtain a Lightforge Collection item through redemption, you may still draw it from the crate, but duplicates will refund the redemption cost in full.[/p][p]4.Non-Lightforge Collection cosmetics may be drawn multiple times. Duplicates will be converted into Lightforge Relics, which can be used to redeem for other Lightforge Loot Crate cosmetics in the current or other events, as well as for limited Lightforge Ingots and Colorful Badges.[/p][p][/p][h3]Lightforge Loot Crate: Techno Stampede[/h3][p]1)Legendary Lightforge Collection Items: 1.02%[/p][p]Includes Nightmare Bringer, Smelter - Ice - M416.[/p][p]2)Epic Lightforge Collection Items: 2.55%[/p][p]Includes Cradle Cosmetic: Electro Cat.[/p][p]3)Other Epic Rewards (Purple Items): 60.63%[/p][p]Includes Crooked Neck Squad, Echo - KV-SBR, Echo - M416, Echo - KVD, Sharp Paint Pack, Decal: Roar, Cradle Charm: Warm Lamp, Weapon Charm: Rebecca, Sticker: You Carried, and Sticker: Phantom.[/p][p]4)Other Rare Rewards (Blue Items): 35.8%[/p][p]Includes Youngling Hut - Wood, Youngling Hut - White Oak, Youngling Hut - Lime, Game Over, and Wild Mask.[/p][p]*You can open up to 90 Lightforge Loot Crates: Techno Stampede.[/p][p][/p][h3]Lightforge Loot Crate: Arcane Celestial[/h3][p]1)Legendary Lightforge Collection (Gold items): 1.02%[/p][p]Includes Fashion Set: White Enigma and Cradle Skin: Phantom Tome.[/p][p]2)Epic Lightforge Collection (Purple items): 2.55%[/p][p]Includes Territory Collection: Wood and Stone Romance.[/p][p]3)Other Epic Rewards (Purple items): 60.34%[/p][p]Includes Abyssal Surprise - Heavy Weapon, Echo Resonance - Baton, Solo Pose: Trendy Style, Silverglow Face Armor, Endless River Makeup Pack, Cradle Charm: Crystal Universe, Weapon Charm: Naughty Bunny, Sticker: Dragonfly on Water, and Sticker: Palm Print.[/p][p]4)Other Rare Rewards (Blue items): 36.09%[/p][p]Includes Formula: Tea Set, Formula: Step Wooden Shelf, and Formula: Wall-Mounted Kitchen Rack.[/p][p]* You can open up to 90 Lightforge Loot Crates: Arcane Celestial.[/p][p][/p][h3]Lightforge Loot Crate: Stardust Edge[/h3][p]1) Lightforge Gem:7.00%[/p][p]2) Legendary Lightforge Collection (Gold):0.40%[/p][p]- Includes: Stardust Mayfly Set, Weapon Rack - Ice[/p][p]3) Epic Lightforge Collection (Purple): 0.60%[/p][p]- Includes: Permafrost - Bow[/p][p]4) Other Epic rewards (Purple): 52.77%[/p][p]- Includes: The Icefall, Aurora-M700.
