Hey there, Gatewalkers! 😄
Today, we'd like to tell you more about the upcoming patch, 1.2.0. But first, let us remind you what we are adding in this BIG UPDATE:
- Multiple character slots
- Offline mode
- Matchmaking
- In-game chat
- Combat flow changes
- Character progression reset
Today we will focus more on the character progression reset system as well as we will discuss online and offline characters feature.
First and foremost, thank you all for your support and feedback 💜. Now let us dive into the specifics.
Character progression reset
We know that some of you play Gatewalkers for a while and, after making some choices are not fully satisfied with the builds. Therefore we believe it would be good if you have a choice to reset your character progress points.
In order to do so, you need to go to Ursula Tragar (Librarian) and ask her to reset your progress. Please take into account that the cost is higher if you have more progress points to reset. This will allow us to scale the reset cost based on the place where you are in the storyline.
After confirming the reset, the game will log your character out (some systems need to reload to make it all possible). After it, you will not have previously unlocked progress nodes.
,and it all! You can reallocate all previously spent progress points again! We hope you will like this feature!
Characters for online and offline mode
Based on your feedback and also to prepare the game for console ports, we think that offline mode is just a MUST-HAVE. So we have made some changes to the character creation screen, and also we are incrementing the number of CHARACTER SLOTS TO THREE:
- we have increased the number of character slots to 3 for online mode - so you can create three characters and therefore be in different places in the storyline (e.g. when you are playing with your friends)
- we have added extra three character slots for offline mode - so in total, you can have six characters. Be aware that offline characters are not stored on servers, so you can only play solo with them, but still, we know that some of you just wish to be able to play alone without an internet connection, so this makes it possible.
Thank you once more for reading our news feed, and remember its still work-in-progress.
