The volcano

the volcano is the 2nd chapter that adds 6 more quests to the story of black ice.

as the name applies the area is built to look like a volcano meaning the area has a focus on: caves, rocky landscapes and lava.

after crossing the bridge to the the volcano, the player has to complete a small platform jumping

cores to enter the first area of the volcano ( 5 in total ), while being the 2nd part of the story, the volcano dose not have high level servers, but servers ranging from 12 to 20-29 unlike the Arcade while also having much less servers, about 200-170 servers in the area with them being 2 shops and 5 secret servers an ambush and the generic servers, but unlike the arcade the volcano dose not have fort servers making the player rely on they're weapons and skills to pass the area and clear the MOS boss at the end of the volcano which will send you back to the Arcade after beating

the shops in the volcano: ( listed by level )

a level 17 shop that is hiding in a small cave near a lava fall and a small text terminal of Eiar it will also have a hacker cache and a random power up with it

a level 23 shop that is at the 3rd area of the volcano before the player gets ambushed

while the player is going through the volcano they will find some easter eggs and secrets in some of the areas ( in no specific order )

them being;

the thumbs up in the lava from the terminator 2 movie near the big jump pad that leads to the end of the cp 2

if you go to fly mode ( cheat code ) and look at the jump pads from the back they make a face

the text terminals making Einar sound like Elon musk or someone close to him

the pit as the name applies is a pit but not just a pit, but a pit with lasers and lava after the co dev Nonadecimal and combine elite ( me ) got in to an argument on what should the pit be, at the end of the twitter poll the lasers won ( yey ) but the lava poll was close behind by 48.8 so Nonadecimal made it both, and from this day its called THE PIT with  graffiti on it that shows some of the discord server reactions to it

servers:

there are 3 hidden servers at the 3 part of the volcano in the 2nd cave. one near the level 23 shop, one that can be found at the small cave near the EPIC server

and one behind a ton of lasers

the first area where the player first enters there is a hidden server around the entry gate to the volcano and one behind a lava fall.
