Garena HoN 2.0 Q & A with GG.MaRs

10 Q&A about Garena HoN 2.0

1. When will Garena HoN 2.0 be released?

We are trying to hit the end of February timeline. There are still works pending to be done to port everything over on Garena HoN. In the meantime the Garena staffs are in the process of testing the 2.0 features. We are making sure to deliver the perfect HoN 2.0 to the community so please be a little bit patient.

2. Will stats reset when Garena patches to Garena HoN 2.0?

No, considering that most players have put great efforts to earn the PSR and score, stats will remain exactly as they were.

3. Does Garena HoN 2.0 mean that we will enter Open Beta or release?

No, but 2.0 is another step in that direction. Once 2.0 is stable we will announce the plans for Open Beta. Right now the first priority is to get 2.0 patched on Garena HoN.

4. How can we purchase the store items?

Players can play matchmaking games to earn Goblin Coins, the currency in HoN. Players are also able to top up Garena Shells, exchange Shells into Coins in game and purchase the items.

5. Can we expect coins or other cash shop incentives in GM Events?

Yes you certainly can.

6. How do you price the store items?

We are setting up the item price based on retail HoN, and of course you can expect CHEAPER price in Garena HoN.

7. Will the shop get updated as we continue patching or will the shop stay stagnant?

The shop will be updated regularly as the game patches.

8. Besides the store, are all the other Garena HoN 2.0 features free?

Yes everything is free. Even for store you can earn coins from matchmaking games.

9. Will there ever be a report a player function?

No, players violating in-game rules will be dealt with through a different protocol based on the forum report and support ticket.

10. Is Matchmaking available at the beginning of Garena HoN 2.0?

Same as retail HoN, we will disable match making initially. It will be enabled periodically while we are performing tests and monitor the performance. Once we are good with everything we will keep the matchmaking running all the time.
