Platforms and Servers
Q: Are game accounts cross-platform? Can I play on multiple platforms?
A: Once Human accounts are cross-platform. If you log in using the same account, you will gain access to your character, regardless of platform.
However, cross-platform support is not available for some account types, such as Steam accounts, due to their inherent limitations. We will be adding more account options in the future to make it easier for you to play across platforms. For now, please choose your platform based on your personal preferences.
Q: Can I play with players on other platforms if I log in using Loading Bay?
A: Of course you can! All platforms have access to the same servers. Whether you log in through Loading Bay, Steam, or any other platform, you will be able to play with your friends so long as you are all on the same server.
Q: What are seasons in the game? And what are scenarios?
A: Once Human has a season system. Each server only exists for a single season, and only has a single scenario. The content available on the server depends on its scenario. Every scenario offers different rules, environments, and stories to diversify your experience.
When your current server's season ends, you can move all resources and items you have earned during the season to your personal domain at Eternaland. You will then be able to register for another season.
To make things easier to understand, we will have two servers at launch: Manibus (PvE only) and Evolution's Call (includes PvP content). You are free to choose whichever server you prefer.
We have many scenarios in reserve and are currently developing new scenarios. Keep an eye out for later announcements regarding new scenarios, they should be coming very soon.
Q: Which scenario should I choose, Manibus (PvE) or Evolution's Call (PvP)?
A: To make things simple for new players, Manibus (PvE) and Evolution's Call (PvP) will be similar at launch, with basically the same rules, content, and story. The main differences are as follows.
Manibus (PvE) does not include any PvP content. You will be able to fight powerful monsters and experience open-world survival with your friends and at your own pace.
Evolution's Call (PvP) includes PvP content, such as Stronghold Conquest. Nearly all PvE content will also be available, so you will still be able to enjoy fighting fearsome entities.
Rewards in both scenarios are the same. You should choose your scenario based on whether or not you want to take part in PvP content.
Q: Will I lose all my rewards and items when a season ends? If not, which items will I keep?
A: At the end of a season, you get to keep important resources like Blueprints, Cosmetics, Furniture Formulas, and Weapon Accessories.
However, common resources, weapons, and items will be transferred to your personal domain, Eternaland, to maintain fairness. Some resources in Eternaland can be carried over to a new season, while others can be used to construct your personal domain.
Eternaland offers freedom for customization, and we plan to add more features to encourage user-generated content. You can design Eternaland as you like and invite friends to join in the fun.
