Big news, tamers!

Today we are bringing Custom Mode, a special game mode available after completing the game. With a Custom file, you’ll be able to adjust all manner of settings for a very unique adventure!

Things like permanently fainting a Nexomon, randomization, adjusted difficulty and copying Nexomon from other files has been requested a lot, so we’ve put it all under this system.

A lot has changed since our last announcement – you might want to check out the Nexomon Discord server’s #timeline channel (https://discord.gg/vVwktEU3FZ) for the most details, but a few things worth pointing out are:

• Added Japanese, Korean and Chinese Simplified languages.
• The Legendaries are no longer cosmic-locked. If you have completed all post-game sidequests you can speak to Eliza and ask her to spawn them in the wild!
• The Database now displays a small “swords” icon, which counts how many times you’ve defeated a monster. One of its purposes is to improve the cosmic chance for that particular Nexomon. One point per defeat, up to 607 meaning that the new best possible cosmic chance is 1 in 1000. Sadly this counter is not retroactive, your previous battles wouldn’t be factored in.

Custom Mode Settings

• Copy a Nexomon Team from another Save File.
• Copy a Nexomon Storage from another Save File.
• Copy an Inventory and Wallet from another Save File. Some items won’t be copied (such as charms).

  • Scramble the official distribution (i.e. pools are moved around).
  • Completely random from the entire roster (no distribution at all).
• Randomize Tamer Parties:
  • Keep the original evolution stage.
  • Use an equivalent or greater evolution stage.
  • Use any random evolution stage.
• Mutate Tamer Parties:
  • Every time a tamer is defeated, their party is re-randomized so each encounter is different (“Randomize Tamer Parties” must be enabled).
• Allow Story Boss Randomization:
  • Allow story-related enemies to be randomized when “Randomize Tamer Parties” is enabled.
• Capture Restriction:
  • Only the very first Nexomon encountered in each map may be captured.

  • Allow evolved stages to appear in the wild even early on.
• Increased Difficulty:
  • Boost the overall level difficulty of all encounters, up to +90 extra levels.
• Permanently Faint Nexomon:
  • Fainted Nexomon cannot be restored. Losing the game causes this setting to be disabled so it can be played normally.
  • Fainted Nexomon cannot be restored. Losing the game causes your save file to be permanently locked.
• Limit Battle Items:
  • Set a limit from 0 to 5 items that may be used in a battle.
• Disable Shopping:
  • You cannot buy or sell items.
• Flee From Battles:
  • Disable the Flee command.
• Boost Coins (wild and tamer encounters):

  • Up to 500%
• Starting Level:
  • Set the level of your starter. This also resets the level of any copied Nexomon from other save files. Up to lvl 90.
• Recalculate Evolution Stages:
  • Recalculate the evolution stage of any copied Nexomon (so if you reset their levels to something low, they should be tier 1). This setting would also cause them to evolve if their new level happens to meet the threshold.
• Randomize Skills:
  • Keep the original element.
  • Completely random.
• Randomization Seed:
  • Affects random patterns. Changing this after the initial setup can cause duplicate skills to be learned.
• Lock Settings:
  • Disallow the player from changing these settings after the initial setup.

Hi Tamers! We wanted to share the details of a new patch, which is now live across all available console formats and Steam/PC.

Notable updates include the ability to nickname a monster from the team menu, a host of new items, the ability to sprint, and a number of fixes. Here’s a full list of everything that has been updated:

• Feature: You can now nickname a monster from the Team menu.
• Feature: You can now reorder a Nexomon’s skills from the Team menu.
• Feature: You can now sprint by holding the B button (Switch).

• Fixed a bug allowing the player to open the menu while moving, which could have unexpected effects like having it overlap a wild battle scene.
• Fixed several dialogues that displayed “”.
• Fixed a visual glitch with the playtime counter in the Profile menu which caused it to restart for every 24 hours. This was only visual and no playtime data should be lost.
• Fixed the Database ordered-by-rarity view.
• Fixed the Database ordered-by-name view.
• Fixed an issue with Spanish LATAM during an endgame scene that could freeze the screen in Drake Isles.
• Fixed the skill animation for “Soul Feeder”, which was causing enemies to appear either invisible or faded when swapped.

The post A New Patch is Live on Steam, PS4 & Nintendo Switch appeared first on Nexomon Extinction.

The Dynamic Difficulty
The backbone of our open-world-like experience is how the wild and the tamers appear to grow stronger in response to certain actions (the majority being story-progression).

However, it appears we overdid it in our earlier versions of the game and some players felt like the environment was catching up to them way too quickly – it sometimes even felt like the wild encounters were magically being stronger than your party at all times no matter how much you trained.

We’ve adjusted our dynamic difficulty system to be a bit more relaxed and not grow so quickly – but keep in mind that our priority is still to achieve a challenging experience. We don’t want an easy game and after playtesting we felt that this update strikes a good balance.

However – If you were playing the earlier versions and were forced to grind a lot, then please understand that once this update is applied there is a chance that you will suddenly be overleveled compared to the immediate environment.

Harmony Stat
We have introduced our first hidden stat, harmony, which goes from 0% to 100%. Each victory will increase it by +1, and fainting will decrease it by -5. A maximized harmony stat can boost the EXP intake of your Nexomon by 35%.

At the moment this is the only use for harmony, but this stat may be opening doors for lots of new features. Some players have already suggested having specific Cores get rejected if harmony is low.

The Skill Cycle
A common concern among players was that, if the environment grows stronger overtime, you may catch a Nexomon whose some best skills were “already lost” since they are learned at low levels rather than high (that’s right, all skills are sort of equally viable, which means that the most damaging ones might actually be learned early).

For this reason we have revamped the skill learning algorithm. Each Nexomon has its own list of 16-or-so skills that they may learn in their lifespan: one every 2-3 levels. Once they reach the “end” of said list (e.g. at around lvl 40), they will simply start learning back from the beginning of the list.

This solves two issues:

1. No more skills are “lost” because so long as you keep leveling up you will eventually repeat the cycle.
2. This allowed us to “compress” the learning curve to one skill every 2-3 levels. Some people didn’t like how sometimes it took 6-7 levels to learn a new skill.

Cosmic Nexomon Apparition Rates
We have tweaked the Cosmic apparition rate formula. The break down is:

• Starts at 1/4000 early-game.
• 1/3500 mid-game.
• 1/3000 late-game.
• -1 for each uniquely Seen monster (so up to -381).
• -2 for each uniquely Owned monster (so up to -762).

That means that the best odds for a Cosmic spawn would be 1/1857 if you’re lategame and own every Nexomon already.

The update also includes the following improvements:

• If your Nexomon faints and you switch, the enemy will no longer get a “free attack”.
• Fixed a bug that would freeze the game if you picked the same language that you already had setup (e.g English to English).
• The quest “Tree of Gifts” was supposed to give you a Vault Key, but it didn’t in earlier versions. If you had already completed the quest, this version will automatically award you a Vault Key in your inventory.
• The Dragon Whistles were having no effect on dragons.
• Added basic footstep sounds.
• Extra visual effects for caves.
• Various sound effects added or improved.
• Defeating a lower level Nexomon will now yield less EXP.
• Fixed an issue where if a status effect like Burn faints a Nexomon, they might still attack you in the next turn.
• Improved the skill selection of enemy bosses. Now it is less likely that they will use dumb skills against you, so be prepared!
• Cosmic Nexomon now have a glowing status box during battles.
• New players start off with 500 coins and a few potions and ethers to help kickstart their adventure.
