REPO developer is set to enhance its gameplay by adjusting the difficulty scaling and introducing new mechanics every 10 levels. Dive into the details about the upcoming changes to the Overcharge mechanic and discover what the developers have been working on during the game's open beta.
REPO Development Updates
Overcharge Overhaul
REPO recently launched an open beta for their upcoming update, gathering crucial feedback from fans. One key feature that caught the attention of developer Semiwork was the game's Overcharge mechanic.Overcharge empowers players to counter enemies by lifting and hurling them onto hard surfaces or away from their team. However, this action isn't without limits; an overcharge meter fills up, and if it reaches its peak, the player will explode.
Originally, the Overcharge mechanic was available from the game's outset, but the developers have decided to unlock it at level 10. Additionally, they plan to introduce new mechanics that increase difficulty every 10 levels (at levels 20, 30, and so on), with Overcharge marking the beginning of these challenges.
These new mechanics will be intricately linked to the game's lore. As Semiwork explained, "So this system will be also tied to lore. It won’t be just a gimmick for no reason. There will be something attached to this and we will share more details in the future."
Developers Joined Open Beta Matchmaking
During the recent open beta, developers from Semiwork participated in random matches, engaging directly with players to gather insights on potential improvements. Pontus Sundstrom, a developer at Semiwork, expressed his delight in seeing players enjoy the new additions to the game.
He shared, "And I've also actually played with a lot of you guys - incognito, in secret, through the random matchmaking in the servers." Sundstrom further noted, "And I've been asking some questions and finding out what you guys find fun, stuff like that."
With the valuable feedback from the community, Semiwork is committed to enhancing REPO. Players can anticipate more exciting updates in the future, as the developers have promised to reveal more details soon. Stay updated with the latest on R.E.P.O. by clicking on our article below!
