Dear Forerunners,

Welcome to our weekly FAQ, where we willl answer our community’s most frequently asked questions; we’ll also offer updates on the continued development of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT.

1. How are you combating racism and abusive behaviour?

We have a zero-tolerance policy for racism, discrimination and abusive behaviour. If anyone uses racial slurs or personal attacks in-game (voice or text), please report them using the in-game tool for abusive behaviour. Multiple reports on the same player will automatically mute the player in-game and trigger our manual review. We can then take appropriate action against the player and make sure that NARAKA remains a safe and fun game to play for everyone.

2. How can I become a partnered content creator for NARAKA?

You can contact Domingo#2750 in our official Discord, or send an email to ... Read more

Dear Forerunners,

Starting this week, we’re running a weekly FAQ, where we will look to answer our community’s most frequently asked questions; we’ll also offer updates on the continued development of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT. We’re doing this because we want to create a more open line of communication between us (the developers) and you (the players).


Q1: How is 24 Entertainment handling teaming, hacking and other forms of unfair play?

Keeping NARAKA fair for everyone is absolutely one of our top priorities. We take reports of teaming, hacking and other forms of unfair play very seriously. Last week, we launched a new feature on our website where players can report suspicious activity by uploading video clips and images.

To reward players that help us keep NARAKA fair for everyone, we have started a rewards program where players can earn chests and even a Legendary Spear Skin: [Righteous Polearm] for successfully reporting hacking and teaming ... Read more

A lil somethin somethin: You can find the details for this event on the announcement page here.

Q: Are there new heroes being released? How can I unlock them?

A: We’re currently developing several new heroes, and we will be releasing the next hero in September. Players will be able to unlock new heroes in-game using Tae or Gold.
We’ve also extended the Yoto Hime special offer. New players will still automatically unlock Yoto Hime on purchase for the foreseeable future.


Q: You’ve mentioned network hubs for players in South America and Oceania. When will they be available for players?

A: We are currently testing the new network hubs in South America and Oceania. Some South American and Oceania players are likely to be playing across those new hubs, and seeing a great improvement on network connections.

We want to reiterate that, with enough South American or Oceania players in the queue, the game server will be hosted on local network hubs in São Paulo and Sydney.


Q: There are some high ping players in my... Read more

Dear Forerunners,

Since NARAKA: BLADEPOINT launched, we’ve been thrilled (somewhat ecstatic, actually) to see so many new players arrive on the Island of Morus, full of anticipation; looking to experience everything the game has to offer. However, we’ve seen some confusion around the use of bots, so we thought it best to publicly address the topic.

To be clear, NARAKA: BLADEPOINT does deploy AI-controlled opponents. We believe they are a useful tool for welcoming new players to the core gameplay of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT, without other, more experienced, players eliminating them early on. This way, people learning the ropes can be eased into NARAKA’s ultra-competitive environment — ideally, avoiding a frustrating first impression.

Bots, however, will not be a constant presence in the game. As players continue to play the game — and their skills increase — bots will be replaced with other players at a similar skill level. By the time someone is familiar with the g... Read more

To the Oceania and South American NARAKA: BLADEPOINT community,
Following the global launch of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT, we’ve heard from players who are eager to jump into the game but are frustrated at the lack of official servers in their respective regions.

The team at 24 Entertainment is hard at work implementing a solution to bring those affected the optimal NARAKA: BLADEPOINT experience. The team is currently establishing network nodes in both Oceania and South America, which players from those regions will automatically connect to. These nodes are connected to the South East Asia server (for Oceania) and North American Server (for South America). When matchmaking begins, the nodes will prioritize players from the Oceania hub and South American hub, delivering low-latency matchups.

If there aren’t enough players from Oceana or South America in the matchmaking queue, the nodes will redirect players to the main servers in North America or South East Asia res... Read more

Greetings FORERUNNERS.

We’ve noticed that there have been some discussions about Kurumi's skills in the Final Beta. We've made some rather large changes to her [Binding Prayer] skill, and hope that they will make the battlefield even more thrilling while also improving Kurumi players' experience.

The effects of this changed version are currently undergoing testing. The duration and effects shown here aren't necessarily the final versions.




Summary:
Shortened the backswing time for the animation played after left/right-clicking during [Binding Prayer].

Shortened the window in which you can right-click during [Binding Prayer].

Kurumi can no longer heal herself with [Binding Prayer].

[Binding Prayer] no longer restores armor.

Dear Forerunners,

Thank you everyone for participating in this beta. We appreciate your continued support and feedback for NARAKA: BLADEPOINT.

In this beta, we identified a lot of problems with low frame rates and game stuttering. After agile feedback collection and technical investigation, we keep releasing one or more new patches every day during the beta and finally implemented a series of optimizations such as:

Optimized the graphic memory management logic, greatly reducing the graphic memory occupation on the premise of ensuring the visual quality. Solved the problem of insufficient performance of some graphics cards, improved the utilization rate of graphics cards, and made the FPS smoother and more stable.
Solved the problem that the FPS of some graphics cards can drop significantly under certain circumstances. Solved a number of problems causing the in-game stuttering. Currently, there are still a few situations that may cause short-term stut... Read more
