Cosmonade changes
Season 3 - New Build System, New Passives, New Map, and Infinite Progression
This update introduces a complete ship build system, a new map, an infinite progression system, as well as numerous balance changes designed to enhance combat encounters.
Build your own ship
Each player can create their own build by combining:
4 weapons out of 11
4 passive abilities out of 16
1 primary firing mode out of 5
the ship of their choice
a propulsion skin
Weapons and passives allow for a wide variety of playstyles:
mobility
damage
survivability
resource gathering
or hybrid builds
Hundreds of combinations are possible.
New map: METROPOLIS CITY
METROPOLIS CITY is a massive space city crossed by a network of booster highways. By using them, ships are accelerated to high speed, opening new possibilities for movement, ambushes, and combat. This mechanic changes how encounters are approached and creates a very different pace compared to other maps.
General balance changes
All game statistics have been reworked to support the new build system.
This update notably rebalances:
health points
weapon damage
repair abilities
ship speed and handling
global cooldowns of certain abilities
The goal is to encourage more varied combat and make many builds viable.
Infinite progression
Astronomical Ranks are being introduced. Each match grants experience that allows players to continuously increase their rank. Each level unlocks a new medal displayed next to the player’s name during matches.
Additional improvements
This update also adds:
killstreak audio announcer
new in-game event announcements
improved objective readability through new visual indicators
display of Astronomical Ranks in-game
improved terrain presentation at match start
a tutorial displayed on first launch
Thank you to everyone following the development of Cosmonade. If you enjoy the game and want to support it, feel free to share it on social media or talk about it with your friends and contacts. See you in-game very soon!
