Developer Patch Notes: Plasma Corp

Plasma Corp has received a major overhaul! From smoother gameplay mechanics to new quality-of-life improvements, here’s everything you need to know about what’s changed and what’s coming soon.

1. Plasma System Overhaul

  • Responsive Waves: Most of Plasma has been reworked to handle new additions. This includes more responsive wave timings—new waves now start immediately after the last enemy is defeated.
  • Boss Reliability: Bosses should now always appear every 10 levels, ensuring every run delivers the challenge you expect.
  • Plasma Coin Indicators: Coin reward indicators now show up for all players.

2. Map Support & Instance Management

  • Map Selection: Leaders, co-leaders, and rank 5 players can now select a map before queueing. Currently, only the original map is available, but more maps are on the way. The groundwork is fully set for future expansion.
  • Instance Visibility: You can now see all current instances in the same menu as map selection. Spectate mode is planned for the future, allowing players to watch ongoing runs.
  • Run Timer Display: Maps now show run time alongside the double coins timer without needing a chat command.

3. Run Resuming

Never lose your progress again! If you disconnect or leave a run, you can now resume your current run under certain conditions:

  • Run must still be active.
  • You haven’t died.
  • You’ve been gone for less than 5 minutes.
  • You may leave once per hour for a maximum of 5 minutes (e.g., once between 0–1h, again between 1–2h, etc.).
  • Wave tracker progress and coin rewards will not apply while you’re away.
  • Resuming restores your HP to what it was when you left, and you can only resume from the lobby.
Currently, resuming a run is done via the chat command /resumerun, but a menu-based option will be coming soon alongside the instance list.

4. Queue & Leave Improvements

  • Only the player who initiated the queue can cancel it.
  • The leave command now works in all levels.
  • Fixed a bug where logging out and back in during a Plasma Survival run would send you to the splash screen instead of the lobby.

5. What’s Coming Soon

  • New Maps: With the groundwork done, additional maps will soon be selectable for all eligible players.
  • Spectate Mode: Watch ongoing runs through the instance menu.
  • UI-Based Run Resuming: Skip the chat command—resume directly from the instance menu.

6. Bug Fixes: Damage Consistency

  • Fixed an issue where certain items caused baddies to take double damage unexpectedly. Combat should now behave as intended for all gear.

Plasma Corp continues to evolve with player feedback in mind. These changes make the game more responsive, fair, and convenient, while laying the foundation for even bigger updates in the near future.
