Gameplay Adjustments: Increased the maximum rounds in Standard Battle to 99 and adjusted "Power Zone" speed from 2 to 3.Battle 64 Mode: This is the highlight
Battle 64 Mode: This is the highlight. The "Battle Royale" mode works surprisingly well. The chaos of 64 players is fun, and the survival mechanics feel fresh. The netcode, post-update, is stable enough for casual play, though high-ping matches still result in "phantom hits" (dying when you thought you were safe).
Castle Mode: A new asymmetrical mode where one player defends a base while others attack. It’s a fun distraction that adds variety to the standard "last man standing" formula.
⚠️ Notes
The update fixes stability, loading times, and Castle mode balance.
No telemetry or ban reports from offline play if using DNS MITM or exosphere.
