[Notice] Update Schedule Announcement



Hello everyone, this is Troubleshooter development team.

First of all, the next update will be at Feb 6th 11PM.(GMT + 9) The biggest reason for the delay is our lack of ability to implement what we want to implement on time.

We're so sorry for the repeated delay of the update. And we'll do our best to provide you with enjoyable content.

About the change of update plan regarding DLC contents



The development team promised that there will be 9 scenario missions and 1 violent case in the DLC update plan the other day.

However, given the current situation, the development team determined that the DLC was lacking in challenging elements, even though the DLC was dealing with post-ending content.

As a result, even if the development period is extended, we would like to provide an additional violent case in addition to the planned violent case.
The first violent case will be updated this time, and an additional case will be provided according to the DLC's development schedule.

The development team is well aware that our decision is not a good choice for those who want to see scenario missions soon. The development team promises to prepare the update for the scenario missions as well.

We're sorry that we always show you our unreliable side.

[Notice] The Next Update Schedule



Hello everyone, this is the Troubleshooter development team.

The first month of 2021, how are you doing?

The development team is preparing for the next update thanks to your support.

There are lots of issues that the development team needs to solve. Due to this, the update will be delayed a little, so it will be carried out on Friday, February 5th at 11 p.m. ( GMT + 9 )

[Notice] [Fixed] Updates to prevent unusual acquisition of goods

Hello everyone, this is the Troubleshooter development team.

Through the user's report today, we confirmed that certain items can be sold at a higher price than the production cost.

It occurred when the players crafted a specific item with the material they bought at the store and then identified the item and sold it to the store again.

We applied an update to modify it at 4:30 p.m.(GMT+9) today.

This issue occurred due to the lower production cost in the process of lowering the quantity and grade of materials needed for item craft through the last update.

The development team sincerely apologizes that we did not check this in advance.

The price of selling items to the store, the price of purchasing materials from the store, and some of the materials needed to craft the items were modified to prevent this problem from occurring anymore.

For online mode only, if there is a players who intentionally exploited this issue to create a lot of goods, we will collect them for fairness.

However, unless it is intentionally exploited, there will be no forced collection.

Once again, we're sorry for causing trouble for your game play.

Thank you.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!




Hello eveyrone, this is Troubleshooter development team.

This year was a difficult year for everyone because of COVID-19.

And April this year was a moment when the development team was in trouble with development budget.

We knew there was still a lot to be updated in the game, but we ended up choosing the official release.

It is you who gave us the opportunity to continue developing the game when we were in such a hurry.

I sincerely thank you all.


Social Distancing is currently being strengthened in Korea due to the re-proliferation of COVID19.

The development team will have time to recharge during the end of the year holiday considering these external environments and development schedules.

This may cause the next update to be delayed a little longer.
