The Version 2.1.1 server maintenance and update is planned for August 13 at 4:00 PM (PT) and is expected to last about 2 hours (actual time may differ). Please plan your game time accordingly for the best experience. The update size is 2.7 GB on PC, 319 MB on Android, and 304MB on iOS. We recommend downloading the update over Wi-Fi.

This update includes new Memetic formulas, scenario recommendations, new ammunition and armor for RaidZone mode, Battle Pass: Satin Bloom, Lightforge Loot Crate: Eclipse Cinder, and various optimizations and bug fixes.

After this maintenance, all players will receive the following rewards: Starchrom ×1,000, Mitsuko's Mark ×100, Starwish Token ×300, and Detoxident ×3.

Below are the details of this update:

To improve the construction mechanics, we've added the following formulas to the Memetics system:

1. Gun Port Wall: Obtain by unlocking Stone Door & Window in Memetics.

2. Straight Ladder: Obtain by unlocking Basic Furniture Ⅰ in Memetics.

3. Rolling Shutter Door: Obtain by unlocking Reinforced Door & Window in Memetics.

4. Iron Mesh Wall: Obtain by unlocking Small Enhanced Support in Memetics.

5. Iron Mesh Floor: Obtain by unlocking Small Enhanced Roofs in Memetics.

The above Memetic formulas are available in both Once Human and Once Human: RaidZone.

We've added a way to transfer collectibles on the mobile version. You can now transfer collectibles in your Backpack to another character on the same account. For more information, go to your Backpack and click a collectible.

To help you find the scenario that suits you best, we've added scenario recommendations to the scenario sign-up interface. Recommended scenarios will be pinned to the top and bear the Recommended tag.

1. To spice up the combat in RaidZone, we've added the new tactical item: Inferior Bomb. The Explosives tactical item can no longer be crafted or obtained, but you still use the Explosives currently in your possession. The Inferior Bomb may randomly disarm some time after being thrown. If that happens, you can either pick it up and throw it again or rearm it at its current spot. But be quick, because other Meta-Humans might get to it first!

2. New Ammunition

a) Burning Arrow

Ignites hostile targets on hit and deals increased damage to wooden structures. Cannot be retrieved. Unlock Incendiary Blast in Memetics to obtain its formula.

After detonation, creates a short-lived, small-area fire zone that continuously deals high damage to nearby targets and structures. Effective against facilities and wooden structures. Can be found in the wilderness.

4. Added the Burning Arrow formula to the Incendiary Blast Memetic node.

1. Shortened the settlement phase of Manibus (Novice), Manibus, The Way of Winter, Endless Dream, Prismverse's Clash, and Evolution's Call from 28 days to 14 days. By popular demand, these servers will be converted into permanent servers more quickly.

* This change only applies to servers that open after the maintenance on August 13 (PT). Existing servers are not affected and will retain their current settings.

2. Reduced the number of World merges for scenarios.

3. Added the Manibus, the Nightmare dungeon to Endless Dream permanent servers.

4. Removed the Scenario Exit Card from the Challenge Shop. Exiting scenarios is now handled by the new Early Exit feature, with the following rules:

a) You can only use Early Exit 10 times per month. This limit is shared across all characters on the same account.

b) The Early Exit limit resets every 1st day of the month at 6:00 AM (server time).

c) Using Early Exit will consume a Scenario Exit Card or Mitsuko's Marks, prioritizing the former.

d) During each month, the first six Early Exits will cost the same amount of Mitsuko's Marks, after which the cost will increase progressively with each exit. This is to prevent frequent exits from impacting the player experience. Alternatively, Early Exit costs one Scenario Exit Card, regardless of count. Please check the exit cost on the Early Exit interface and plan accordingly.

5. No Visional Wheel scenarios are scheduled for opening after this maintenance. For more information, refer to the Server Opening Announcement >>>https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2139460/view/514092424328382231

b) Load-bearing capacity no longer applies to Construction mode and will not be displayed.
