Shield Power-Up UpdatesThe Shield Power-Up has been reworked to provide a temporary protective health layer that absorbs incoming damage before a player's normal health is affected. When activated, the shield generates a separate Shield Health Bar positioned over the standard health bar. While active, all damage is applied to the Shield Health Bar first. The shield gradually depletes over a fixed duration, and once it expires or is fully depleted, any further damage is applied directly to the player's normal health. This update makes shield usage more predictable and impactful, giving players a clear window of protection during key combat encounters. Playlist Update: Quick PlayWe've streamlined matchmaking by replacing separate game mode selections with a single Quick Play option. As we continue to test new mechanics and gather player feedback, maintaining multiple playlists introduced variables that could impact the quality and consistency of the gameplay data we collect. By bringing all modes together into one playlist, we can better evaluate player behaviour, engagement, and balance changes across the entire experience. Behind the scenes, a dynamic weighting syste

New Mechanic: Form Abilities Form Abilities introduce a unique ability for every form, adding new tactical options to combat and creating more opportunities for skill expression. Each ability is designed to reflect the *form's role within the evolution chain while also helping to address challenges unique to that stage of progression, whether that's improving survivability, increasing mobility, enhancing offensive potential, or providing new ways to engage larger opponents. Activating an ability comes at the cost of Mass, creating meaningful decisions about when and where to use these powerful tools. By helping each form overcome its inherent limitations and reinforcing its strengths, Form Abilities add greater depth, variety, and strategic choice to the core combat experience. *  Temporarily disabled the form ability of the Cell to avoid it potentially harming a small portion of our players that may suffer from Epilepsy. We have a fix in progress for this.
