No one would have expected it—especially not here—but thanks to the effort of a Chinese team, a major new update for the map Across The Time 2 has just emerged from the ether…
Indeed, “Zhubi,” a member of our community passionate about our work, wanted to bring many improvements, with the help of modders like “Orian34” to continue implementing fixes.
As many of you already know, the existence of Team Adventquest now rests solely on my shoulders—Piccomaster—and the amount of work involved has gradually decreased with each update. It was therefore natural to reach the conclusion expressed in the last article.
But that was without considering the community’s determination to keep improving our creation. I simply couldn’t let such great ideas go unshared with the larger public.
And so, I’m officially announcing the major new update for Across The Time 2 – Time for Regrets: “The Enhancement Update v5.0.0.”
I can’t list all the additions here—you can find the full list in the changelog—but the update mainly focuses on enhancing existing gameplay features such as magic, itemization, the rune system, and more:
- Improved ergonomics for casting Dahäl spells,
- Increased magical damage,
- Attack effects based on weapon class,
- More powerful mythical weapons,
- Mimic chests with a chance to double loot,
- A complete overhaul of rune drop rates,
- Better performance and improved voice mixing…
However, many other important features have been added to the map, starting with brand-new challenges: the labyrinths.
Available toward the end of the game, these enemy-filled mazes feature chests with increased rune drop rates. Several labyrinths of increasing difficulty have been added, and at the end of each, your score is calculated to reward players who manage to reach the exit.
Another long-awaited addition: the grinder.
It allows players to convert excess runes into rune powder.
This rune powder can be used to reinforce destruction spells. In fact, the extra damage previously added by rune words has been removed and replaced by the enhancement system.
A new rarity tier, even stronger and rarer than legendary items, is also being introduced: “Supreme” items.
A new “heroic” title system is now in place, along with features such as invasions and more…
In short, tons of new features that will enhance the player’s experience throughout the adventure.
However, due to the many technical changes, playing version 5.0.0 will require starting the adventure from the very beginning.
In any case, if there’s someone you should thank for making this new update possible, it’s Zhubi and the Chinese fan community of Across The Time. Without them, we wouldn’t have had the motivation to finalize another major update.
Whatever happens next—we may meet again… Time will tell.
Without the madness of this community, I’m no longer sure of anything haha. Other members like “Grenier” also have surprises in store for us.
Ultimately, this project belongs as much to you as it does to us! It’s now up to the community to decide whether Across The Time 2 should continue to live on…You are incredible!
