First Connection: Part I - Persona
Greetings, Operatives. With this new episode, we are introducing a new phase of the game called First Connection. This is part one – Persona. In this update, we’ve revamped District Ruins and added our highly anticipated Cyber Case system, Memory Cell (MC) Shop, and paint system. We also added two new weapons to add to your arsenal. Review the patch notes below.
MAP
District Ruins – Terminal Conquest
We’ve heard our community’s feedback about wanting our maps to feel more in tune with the Ghost in the Shell universe. We’ve started with a well-loved map, one of First Assault’s oldest and most played maps of all time – welcome to the revamped District Ruins. We’ve updated the entire map to feel grittier, with more debris, graffiti, and inspiration taken from the anime series. We also made a couple of small balance changes for the Terminal B side. Dive in and let us know what you think of the new District Ruins.
Balance #1: Terminal B - These crates can no longer be climbed.
Balance #2: Between Terminal B&C - The ledge has been removed.
WEAPON
SMG: KA-P5W – Chambered for 6x35mm rounds, this weapon features superior penetration and reliability thank to its extended barrel.
AR: KHX-160 – This versatile assault rifle was designed to be as lightweight as possible and support ambidextrous operation.
SYSTEMS
Cyber Case & Inter Gate System The Cyber Cases are random reward boxes that can be purchased with NX or earned through events. With hundreds of items to help customize your operative and weapons, you will be able to enhance your persona with new and never before seen cosmetics. Cyber Cases reward cosmetics such as weapon skins, operative skins, paints, stickers, name cards, emblems, and more.
Take a look at some of the new skins available in the Cyber Cases:
M249-G4 PRO CAMO
KRIS-SV VINTAGE
AK47 KINGPIN
KHX-160 NETHERWORLD
SA50 PHEONIX
SEBURO SR NETHERWORLD
SEBURO MG JUDGMENT
M4A1 BEAST
SC-AR 45 BEAST
SEBURO C-30 BEAST
SC-AR 45 DESERT
MOTOKO NIGHT OPS
BATOU NIGHT OPS
SAITO NIGHT OPS

These skins and new stickers, emblems, name cards, paint, and more are available through our Cyber Cases! View the full list of items available in the Cyber Cases here: http://firstassault.nexon.net/en/news/21294/cyber-case-item-list
Please read our blog for full details on how the Cyber Cases and Inter Gate functions: http://playfirstassault.tumblr.com/post/158706754476/
Memory Cell (MC) Shop With the Cyber Crate system, we’re introducing the Memory Cell (MC) Shop. MC is currency that you can receive through events or through duplicated skins, name cards, and emblems that are received in Cyber Crates. Head to the MC Shop today to view the items that are available for purchase!
Paint System We’re excited to introduce the new paint system to First Assault. Show off your style and customize your weapons in the armory to your liking using paints and stickers acquired from the Cyber Cases. There are differing rarities of paints with a variety of shades. Show us your favorite customized weapons on our forums!

MISCELLANEOUS
Optimized movement lag compensation
Higher ping players will appear less erratic in-game. We encourage players to play on the server nearest to them.
Saito’s “Multi Scanner” chipsets now correctly gives 1 additional scan instead of 2.
