Hello, I’m PQ, a game developer for EFAS, and I’m thrilled to share the exciting Alpha 132 version update with you!
This update is packed with fresh content! Get ready to challenge elite and leader enemies armed with affixes like "Teleporter," "Auto Defense," and "Invincible," all designed to test your strategic skills. You’ll find powerful buffs like "Virus," "Pulling," and "Explosion" that will give you a serious advantage. Plus, we’ve enhanced the Aura buffs and introduced new rare abilities for units like Medics and Satteri Emissaries, making battles even more exhilarating!
To keep things balanced, enemy health and damage will adjust based on the buffs you collect. We’ve also added periodic drop buff chests to make enhancements easier to obtain. The long-awaited sensitivity adjustment for aiming mode is finally here, along with WASD quick movement and a material tracking feature to help you manage resources more effectively. We’ve optimized tech tree reminders and battle league descriptions, and the new ESC interface integrates all functions seamlessly.
Thank you for your incredible support during the development of EFAS! I can’t wait to hear your thoughts. Jump in and enjoy this thrilling new version!
