Maintenance Content for November 30

2023-11-30
Dear visitors,

Welcome to [Identity V]!

To ensure smooth operation, Identity V will issue a hotfix on Thursday, at 08:00 (UTC+8).

- This week's maintenance will be replaced by a hotfix. The hotfix will begin at 08:00 on November 30, 2023 (UTC+8), during which most of the game modes will remain available, including Quick Match, Custom Mode, Events, and Logic Path. (Note: The entrance to Ranked Match will be closed during the hotfix. However, Ranked Matches already in progress will not be affected.)

- After 10:30 (UTC+8), players will have to exit the game to receive the latest patch. All game modes will be back online once the latest patch is installed (time is subject to postponement should there be any issues).

- If there are still players who have not installed the latest patch by 11:00 (UTC+8), the server will perform a forced update. During this time, these players will be forced to log out, and can play again once the game client has been restarted (time may be subject to postponement should there be any issues).

Penalties for Violations

It has recently come to our attention that a small number of players have violated our code of conduct through delaying tactics, intentionally losing, idling, playing negatively, using cheats, cheating in Blackjack mode, and hindering matchmaking for top-ranked matches, all of which significantly affect the experience of other players. We have started punishing these violations in order to provide a healthy gaming environment for everyone. We also encourage you to use the in-game reporting system when encountering the behaviors above. Let us work together to maintain order and integrity in the Manor.
