Hi Daoists! We want you to know that something very special is about to happen. Starting from today, if you reach 300 in-game days in a playthrough, a notification for a special event will show up at the upper-right corner of your screen.




Something has changed in the Cultivation world -- a mysterious place has appeared somewhere, but only those who are worthy can find it and enter it. Once you reachthe 300 in-game days mark, you will be able to access it and unveil its secrets...






This end-game event, the true ending of the Cultivation story, will be implemented on November 28th, 12:00 pm (UTC+8). From that point it will be available to everyone... but only if you are worthy of finding!

Rangers!

Combat Arms: Reloaded will undergo emergency maintenance with a 1 hour downtime. During the emergency maintenance access to the game will be temporarily blocked. Head over to our official channels for further updates.

11/26/2020 07:00 UTC / 11/26/2020 08:00 CET / 11/26/2020 23:00 PST.

Thank you for your unwavering support for Combat Arms: Reloaded!

There’s a LOT of content coming when Episode 6 boards the Ship, operatives! Check out this article and study up so you’re prepared!



So, you left the Sacred Magical Kingdom of Epykuento in the transcendent hands of a friend, and headed back to Fleet Oracle for some much needed R&R. The only problem is that your legendary feats in vanquishing one enemy inadvertently permitted the entry of another – and she even had the gall to thank you for it. As your experience on Alternate Dimension: Omega taught you, the universe tends to favor recycling things; though chaos often interferes and these re-creations can be – flawed. Add this to the newfound knowledge that your experience on Omega may not have been historically accurate, and you have the recipe for a grim sense of foreboding. ARKS will again need your help; to make sense of the past – and preserve the future.


There will be new training regimens, and new equipment that will better enable Fleet Oracle to meet this new challenge head-on when it arrives. Apprise yourselves of the contents of this notice, operatives, and then dispose of it in a secure manner.



Some of the new changes and features include:

• New Story
  
• Player Level cap increased to 95
  
• New Classes – Phantom & Étoile
  
• New Summoner Pets – Herbie and Vulcan
  
• New Urgent Quests

• New 15★ Weapons at Zig Shop
  
• New 13★ Units at Zig Shop
  
• 13★ Units can be have S-class Augments - S6, S7, S8

A few of the new features and changes deserve to have a little bit more said about them, so let’s get started!



NEW STORY

After your victorious return from the battle in Alternate Dimension: Omega, the universe seems to be righting itself, as the massive Black Hole seems to have disappeared. The only remaining oddity left to address is the sudden appearance of someone bearing a striking resemblance to a recent acquaintance – who happens to call herself Shiva, Goddess of Annihilation. Outside of the forbidding name, perhaps most alarming is the fact that Photon Arts and Techniques appear to be totally ineffective at warding her, and her companions, off. Fortunately, her initial overture towards ARKS was brief, though its purpose was to flatly declare war.

Bolstered by an armada of her own, Shiva has deployed her forces in a standard formation – directly opposing Fleet Oracle. Though the battlespace is limitless, preparation time is not, and the most massive battle in the history of ARKS is about to begin.




A Scion Class, the Phantom adeptly uses Rods, Katanas, and Assault Rifles in a manner unique to their Class. But their advantage doesn’t end there, for they can quickly modify their Rod or Katana’s standard Photon Arts on the fly with the use of a Weapon Action, thus executing a Shift Photon Art and increasing the variety of attacks they can perform. Even their Techniques, when executed with a Rod in hand, provide an additional Technique Attack.


In the hands of a Phantom, the Phantom Assault Rifle is used to create Phantom Bits, allowing the Phantom to continue with their Attacks and Photon Arts while deployed Bits seek and detonate upon the target. Perhaps most impressive, subsequent attacks against enemies will apply a Phantom Marker, which detonates when struck with a Charged Weapon Action.


Finally, Phantoms can learn the skill Phantom Time, which extends the duration of their invulnerability when sidestepping and reduces their PP consumption by 20% for a short time. Using Phantom Time Finish once the duration of Phantom Time is nearly expired will unleash a massive attack upon the Phantom’s enemies. As with all Scion Classes, you will need to level two Classes to level 75 before you are able to complete Officer Kofy’s Class Permit Trial unlocking the Phantom Class. Phantoms are also unable to select a Sub-Class, however other Classes can select Phantom as their Sub-Class.

Notable Photon Arts of the Phantom include:

• Rufkonzert - Rod Photon Art for Phantoms. Unleash a string of attacks and then let loose a shockwave. Performing a Weapon Action changes the Photon Art.
  
• Wolkenkratzer - Katana Photon Art for Phantoms. Execute a drop attack accompanied by a shock wave. Performing a Weapon Action changes the Photon Art.
  
• Verbrechen - Assault Rifle Photon Art for Phantoms. Launch a line of attack satellites as you move. Performing a Weapon Action changes the Photon Art.

Notable in the fields of Defense and Support skills, Étoiles shine quite brightly when in the thick of battle. Capable of wielding the Double Saber, which allows for increased aerial mobility; Soaring Blades, which grant them the ability to defend while still attacking; and Wands, which provide free movement while allowing the Étoile to continue with their attacks.


In the hands of an Étoile, the Double Saber grants the operative high mobility, special aerial abilities, and the ability to accumulate Focus through the Focus Gauge – which is spent automatically to help mitigate incoming damage. Naturally, this Focus can also be spent on an Enhanced Attack, so it’s up to the Étoile to determine the best use of their Focus at a given time. The Weapon Action of the Étoile Double Saber is called Deflect and using it will activate a Perfect Guard. Deflect can also be used to unleash a powerful counterattack. Perhaps most notable is the Étoile’s ability to use Double Saber Skip Arts, allowing them to tailor their attacks to specific parts of their Photon Arts.


Soaring Blades allow an Étoile to Parry by using their Weapon Action. This allows them to block attacks from every direction, even when the Étoile is in the middle of a Photon Art. Étoile Soaring Blades also allow the use of the Focus Gauge, which can be spent on a powerful Connect Attack upon reaching a certain level. Building the Focus Gauge even more will unleash a Full Connect Attack.


Perhaps the most favored weapon, the Étoile Wand provides the operative with high mobility and attacks that chain together naturally. Using the Weapon Action at the right time during the use of a Photon Art will release a Focused Photon Art, which may be smaller in scope, but far more powerful. Used on its own, the Weapon Action will activate Charge Protect, providing the Étoile with defense while moving. By expending the Étoile Focus Gauge, this defensive stance can be maintained longer. Once the Focus Gauge has been depleted to a certain level, a powerful attack known as a Protect Release will occur and devastate the area surrounding the Étoile.


Naturally, as with the other Scion Classes, this Class is restricted to senior operatives who have reached Level 75 with two different Classes. Also, like the Phantom, Étoile can be chosen as a Sub-class.



Notable Photon Arts of the Scion include:

• Light Wave – Soaring Blades Photon Art. Unleashes a barrage of blows that emit shockwaves and launches a Photon Blade that pierces the enemy.
  
• Black Hole Rapture – Wand Étoile Photon Art. Sucks up targets into an explosion. Attack changes depending on Weapon Actions.
  
• Celestial Collide – Double Saber Photon Art. Release a giant Photon Blade into the enemy with a heel drop.

Herbie – An evolved form of Redran (though of the same Rarity), Herbie has increased DEX (+93 at Level 130). Herbie has a new personality type, that of GENIUS. When facing a Boss-type enemy, this personality will provide increased PP recovery, faster performance of Photon Arts, and increased Normal Attack damage[/b]. Though evolved from Redran, Herbie’s Photon Arts are slightly different in that Laser affects fewer targets, the potency and range of Mine are increased in exchange for a higher PP Cost, Slash yields higher damage at the cost of more PP, Gravity requires less PP, and Burst charges faster and requires less PP but also deals less damage.



Vulcan – The evolved form of Synchro, its nature allows for higher damage with chained Photon Arts. It has an altered personality, however, and is considered Aggressive. This personality reduces its Critical Hit Rate in exchange for greatly increased damage. It also has slightly higher Dexterity, Defense, and HP than its lesser form. Kick’s damage is greatly increased at the cost of more PP, Fist deals increased damage, and Bomb and Strike do more damage compared to their Synchro counterparts.


There’s a new entry in the Recommended Quests at the Quest Counter – Level Up Quests! These will also reward a Special Present at the end of the Quest, in addition to providing an additional 200% EXP!

Naturally, Shiva has some new baddies for operatives to play with. See below for the latest information ARKS HQ has received on them!




Luminmech

Luminmech are enemies created and dispatched by Shiva, Goddess of Annhilation. Luminmech have high attack power, use heavy armor, and have unique skills that make them a very dangerous foe.



Ultra Enemies

Ultra Enemies are Native inhabitants and Falspawn of each planet that have undergone an additional, corruption-induced transformation. These enemies will be encountered in Ultra Hard Difficulty Quests.

After dispatching some Ultra Enemies, operatives have reported that each has dropped a special 15★ weapon, similar to those dropped in Risk Exploration quests.


Expeditions may have become less challenging as you’ve become more powerful, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t enemies out there that will truly test your mettle! Risk Explorations are the next frontier that ARKS HQ would like you to explore, but be forewarned, because these quests are only available for those who aren’t afraid to take on Ultra Hard Quests!

It takes some time (3 days) for ARKS HQ to plan out which set of areas should be explored, and when, so these will not all be simultaneously be available, as normal Expedition Quests are. You can also expect to be more challenged by the random occurrence of Emergency Trials as well, as they’ll have more difficult goals under different conditions than those that have occurred elsewhere.






You can now exchange weapons for 15★ RIVALATE SERIES WEAPONS at the Zig Shop, provided you have the necessary materials, including a Key Rivalate.







That weapon seemed perfect when you first got it, but now compared to some of the new items you’re picking up lately, it’s not so hot. The good news is that WEAPON EXTENSION Is now available in your Personal Quarters via the Crafting Terminal! Extending your (up to 12★) weapon can overwrite the standard stats with those of a selected recipe – once you’ve raised the weapon’s Extension Level enough – with the maximum level being 12. The Enhancement Level, Augments, and Weapon Potentials will not be affected.


To Extend your weapon, you’ll need some materials, most of which can be attained by Dismantling 7★ or higher equipment at the Crafting Terminal. As you Extend more items, you’ll attain Crafting Achievements, which will unlock additional, more powerful Recipes.


If you’re looking for an entirely new upgrade and the Rare Drop Rate has not favored you, you can now craft 13★ weapons at the Crafting Terminal! These weapons can then be Extended up to Extension Level 8!


The next Rising Weapons Badge, and the wares that can be purchased with them, are here! Perhaps most notably, you can now purchase Sweets for your Pets and S-Grade Augments!



*By using the Key Rivalate found in Mission Pass 11 or received as a Title Reward for achieving the Title of Glass Guardian, you can upgrade Novel Series Weapons to Rivalate Series Weapons.

Hi everyone !
We plan to participate "Best Game You Suck At" in the Steam Awards 2020. If Gunfire Reborn has brought you joy during your leisure time, we hope to have your support. Come and vote for us!

2020 is a tough year for the entire world. Luckily, games connect us together no matter where we are. Thanks for your continued support, genuine encouragement and helpful suggestions. Since Gunfire Reborn started Early Access on Steam in May, we have come a long way and continue to push our limit to make the game better and better. Our passion to the game will never fade, and we will seize every minute and second to work hard and bring you more diverse experience.

Hello everyone, Chris here! I am happy to announce the beginning of the next phase of the Project Wasteland and it is called "Escape from the Mythiclands". I have learned a lot from my work on Project Wasteland and would like to progress the game to its next phase. In Escape from the Mythiclands you play as an adventurer who has escaped from the Mythiclands through a portal to a micro-dimension that remains untainted, but is scarce on useable resources. This forces you to return to The Mythiclands to obtain supplies to build up your home, but beware.. you are not the only adventurer to have claimed a micro-dimensional home and in need of supplies.

The goal is to build up your home and obtain the strongest gear in a dangerous full loot PvM/PvP world. You have 20 minutes to loot chests, harvest materials, kill monsters, and investigate what happened to your old homeland, then return to your designated portal before your soul is claimed by The Mythiclands.

As always, if you'd like to leave feedback or discuss the game with me I always love to talk about ideas in our Game Community Discord https://discord.gg/9UfHXns

I've finally finished with the chat, after two previous videos on it! I've added some security features to prevent you from being tricked by a malicious link sent in chat, and the chat window is now used for telling players some game information.



Shoutout to the many, many people who expressed concerns last week about link security. I was initially going to be lazy and not add the popup, trusting users to take care of their own safety. But that was a bad and irresponsible way of thinking, and y'all called me out on that and held me accountable. Cheers!



The Logic World website backend is made up of many different and small services written in Go, each of which takes care of a single "feature", for example comments, ratings, posts, etc. We use Kubernetes in order to manage all of these applications, which takes care of starting them up and scaling them when needed.

Each of these services needs some way of communicating with each other, which was being achieved using the Go Micro framework. This framework in turn leveraged gRPC in order to provide inter-service communication, as well as some other features like events and configuration. This worked just fine, however the Micro library underwent some breaking changes, and it was overall a slight pain to work with, so I jumped the gun and started to write my own library, called Mice.

Mice is lighter and simpler, and it will help me develop Logic World's web architecture faster, while also removing unnecessary overhead from the services. Mice is still not quite at production level since there's still more testing left to do, as well as some features that our services need, like events. Once all that's done I will begin migrating all services to this new framework, which should hopefully not be too hard since Micro's and Mice's APIs are quite similar.



As you may know, I struggle with an addiction to adding settings to Logic World. This week I channeled that into some settings for customizing the caret in text boxes.

• Fixed various bugs with the markdown renderer
  
• Fixed issues with caching links in text, leading to apparent clickable links on regular, non-link text
  
• Fixed some situations where HoverTags could become stuck open
