Content Improvements
(1) Onslaught Mode
| # Designer's Comment We have been consistently monitoring your feedback regarding the difficulties you are experiencing in high-difficulty co-op content, such as Onslaught Mode, due to other Descendants leaving the mission midway.
First, we would like to clarify the system that is currently in place. Currently, if players leave during a multiplayer session and the active player count decreases, a feature is triggered where newly spawned monsters have their stats dynamically scaled to match the remaining number of players. This feature is also actively applied to Clash Mode.
However, we realize that due to a lack of clear guidance regarding this feature, many Descendants may have found it difficult to actually notice or feel these adjustments during gameplay. We apologize for our lack of explanation on this matter. Moving forward, we plan to add clear in-game indicators so that you can easily confirm when this scaling feature is active.
That being said, we do not believe that simply adjusting monster stats based on player count fully resolves the core issue of mid-game quits in high-difficulty co-op content. In actual gameplay, a sudden drop in combatants inherently disrupts the flow of the operation and can place an undeniable extra burden on the remaining Descendants.
We view repeated mid-game quitting as a serious issue that negatively impacts the gameplay experience of other Descendants. Therefore, going beyond mere UI improvements, we are preparing separate, dedicated countermeasures to address this behavior.
We will share the exact details of these countermeasures and the update schedule through our future Patch Notes as soon as they are finalized. We will continue to closely monitor and refine the co-op combat environment to ensure a more stable and enjoyable experience for everyone. |
