Defense Judgment System Change Notice

The judgment method for player receive range and sliding range has been updated in this patch.

Previously in The Spike Cross,

defense success was calculated based on the distance between the ball and the player’s position.

However, with the addition of multiple FPS support,

this method began causing inconsistencies where judgment results varied depending on frame intervals.

This led to issues with the frequency of no-touch scoring and inconsistent defensive judgments,

making it difficult for the system to fully manage gameplay fairness.

To ensure long-term balance and a stable PvP environment, this improvement was necessary.

With this update, defensive range and sliding range are now determined based on

whether the player reaches the ball’s landing point at the moment it touches the ground.

As a result:

• Ball penetration issues during receive situations have been improved

• Teams with lower speed stats may experience no-touch situations more frequently

We have carefully adjusted the system to maintain gameplay feel and balance as close to the previous experience as possible.

If you notice any discomfort or balance concerns while playing,

please feel free to share your feedback with us at any time.
