Gameplay Update

Crystal Scramble (BETA)

Overview

The Bablo Crystal is the rarest mineral energy in Strinova, and the best carrier for String Energy. Three factions are in a constant struggle for resources to achieve their goals.

The Dirac Mine, located between the True Wilderness and urban areas, established P.U.S's earliest Bablo Crystal mining industry. However, the area has now fallen into a state of rumble due to external invasions...

Rules

Players are divided into two teams to compete. They must gather Bablo Crystals from the mine area on the Map and transport them back to their Warehouse. The team that collects the specified number of Crystals first or has the most when the Countdown ends wins.

Unique Gameplay Mechanics

- More points are required to activate Ultimate Skills.

- Players can only access the String Energy Network in their Faction's Warehouse Area or while waiting to Respawn.

- Transporting Crystals back to Warehosue boosts base attributes.

- Once the Warehouse stores a certain number of Crystals, the Defense System will deactivate. Beware of theft.

Crystal Scramble - Dirac Mine

The Dirac Mine has three mining points, forming a developed underground Crystal extraction system. The central mine shaft is equipped with the latest directional drilling machine for deep exploration of high-purity Bablo Crystals. The open areas on the left and right have rotary suction mini-drills, which output small amounts of Crystals at regular intervals.

Map Workshop Update and Optimization

[New Game Mode: Escape]

Navigators can now build Escape Levels in the map workshop! Gameplay Overview:

- Superstrings win by reaching the extraction point and holding for a set time.

- Crystallines must infect all Superstrings or reach the Checkpoint/Extraction Point first.

Gameplay Adjustments

- Press F2 to toggle the card selection screen; when closed, use 1, 2, 3 to switch weapons.

- Frag Grenades now apply a brief slow effect on Crystallines when dealing damage.

- Left/right and backward movements no longer have movement speed penalties.

- Superstrings in this mode do not have Passive Skills.

- No collision between Characters.

- Crystallines can infect only one Superstring per normal attack.

- Crystallines killed by Melee Weapons can be revived.

- Crystallines don't unlock Ultimate Skills at Lv. 10; only drawing the [Ascendant] card unlocks them.

- Leveling up grants only card draw opportunities, no attribute growth.

- Card selection is limited; only certain cards are usable in this mode. Available cards:
