The consultant said: "Currently, the new dungeons of "Dark Sand" are planned according to the multiplayer dungeon model. So, this new historical slice...how do you plan to deal with it?"
Meng Yuan did not panic at all: "This problem is not big, it is just a matter of changing the game process.
“Just write it clearly in the game announcement beforehand.
“But I really need to plan the content of the copy carefully.
"After all, it would be too difficult for one player to clear the entire dungeon. I'm afraid it would also be difficult for top players like Chu Ge and Zhao Haiping to do it.
"Perhaps it would be a better choice to split the entire dungeon into different parts to pass the level..."
Meng Yuan fell into deep thought.
This slice of history was very critical and there was no room for error. He had to think of a foolproof strategy.
Shen Shang didn't ask much. It was Meng Yuan's own decision on such matters. She felt satisfied with the improvement in his strength, and then went to edit the video of the Orderer expedition.
…
At the same time, players are also waking up in the real world.
The discussion on the official forum of "Dark Sand" also quickly skyrocketed.
"Last night's Orderer expedition was so exciting! The city defense battle allowed me to find the joy of playing tower defense games!"
"The battle at the West Gate was so exciting, I want to do it again."
"The video has been released? So fast! The official efficiency of "Dark Sand" is simply unmatched."
"Hurry, I can't wait to see the footage of myself fighting!"
"Are you sure it's not the scene of being beaten into a dog by barbarian soldiers?"
The players teased each other and clicked on the video to view it.
Just like the video of the last Orderer expedition, it is still a perfect documentary. The entire video lasts for more than four hours, and all the shots of the main players are edited in without missing a single shot.
Including the scene where Zhao Haiping, holding a machete, single-handedly defeated the enhanced version of the barbarian soldiers, simply made the players' blood boil.
It is conceivable that when the server is re-opened tonight, the new swords in the blacksmith shop will be sold out.
This can be considered a kind of carrying goods, right?
Zhao Haiping was a little regretful. He didn't know when the blacksmith shop would settle the payment for the goods.
The biggest difference between this video and last time is that it focuses on the heroic performance of the players when defending the city.
The players relied on the location of the Orderer's fortress to defeat the powerful Northern Barbarian cavalry. This was obviously different from the previous battles in small counties.
Of course, Li Weiyi and other players received a lot of thanks and praise. If they hadn't insisted on transforming the terrain, this battle would not have gone so smoothly.
Many players cut off their own shots and enjoy them over and over again.
And I am looking forward to the completion movie of the multiplayer copy with great joy, as well as the official announcement of the new version update that will be released soon.
…
At this time, Li Hongyun was playing harp in the bedroom.
"Look, is my shot cool? I shot down the Northern Barbarians' heavy cavalry from eight hundred miles away!"
“Oh, it turns out that this is how I feel when I enter the video, it’s nothing special.
"I was quite envious when I saw you commanding on the city wall like a strong-mouthed king, but now it seems that it's nothing more than that.
"Players like me who have just qualified for closed beta testing can also play a vital role in multiplayer dungeons."
Li Hongyun was in a very good mood at this time.
The battle footage of the Orderer Crusade is comparable to that of a mega-budget movie, and this time, he is also one of the protagonists.
Chu Ge smiled silently, not bothering to argue with the European Emperor who had never seen the world.
Instead, edit the post carefully and summarize your experience.
"Although this battle was won without any danger, we cannot take it lightly and realize that this victory was very random.
"Many players looked down upon the Northern Barbarian cavalry at first, but after the demons broke through the west city gate and we actually fought against the Northern Barbarian cavalry, we discovered how terrifying they were.
"This time we relied on the location of the Orderer's fortress to defend it. If we were to face such a powerful heavy cavalry on the plains, we would probably have no more power than a unilateral massacre.
"So, next we still have to pay attention to the relevant mechanisms in the game and be prepared to deal with more powerful enemies..."
Chu Ge's post quickly gained approval from players.
Especially those warrior players who actually fought against the Northern Barbarian heavy cavalry at the West City Gate can better understand the meaning of this passage.
This time it is a defensive battle, so what if we want to take the initiative to attack the Northern Barbarian cavalry positions next time?
The result is hard to say.
Therefore, Chu Ge's post can be regarded as a reminder to players, so that they should not be inflated, do not think that they are invincible, and prepare in advance for more severe challenges in the future.
After a heated discussion among players on the forum, the update announcement for "Dark Sand" came out.
Everyone hurriedly clicked on it to check it out.
…
"New version update announcement of "Dark Sand":
"The Orderers worked together to defeat the demons in the historical slice, regained the historical slice, and further expanded the scope of the Orderer's fortress.
""Dark Sand" will enter a new version preparation state for seven days:
"First, the edited video of the final trial of "The Prince Is Not My Will" will be released in the form of a movie in major theaters and online video platforms, and the revenue will still be returned to players.
“Second, in the territorial fiefdom gameplay, the scope of the Orderer’s fortress and the player’s fiefdom will be further expanded.
"At the same time, some new craftsmen and shops will appear in the Orderer's fortresses and fiefs, unlocking more resource points. Props such as muskets and thunderbolts can be purchased from the corresponding merchants.
"Three, the heroic spirit summoning function is open.
“In the process of conquering historical slices, some historical heroes may be unlocked. Players can spend construction value in the Orderer’s fortress to summon heroic spirits to appear for a short period of time to destroy enemies.
"The heroic spirit activated in the copy of "The Marquis Is Not My Will" is: General Deng Yuanjing.
“Four, internal testing qualifications are issued.
“In this phase, an additional 20,000 internal beta qualifications will be issued, bringing the total number of internal beta players to 60,000.
“New internal beta quotas will be selected according to the original mechanism.
"Fifth, the subsidiary identity is unlocked: 'Cavalry'.
“On top of the four basic identities of soldier, assassin, scribe, and ranger, unlock the subsidiary identity ‘cavalry’ and open the cavalry-exclusive trial dungeon.
"Players who have obtained the four basic identities can obtain the subordinate identity of the cavalry after clearing the cavalry exclusive trial dungeon, and obtain the cavalry's exclusive talents and skills.
"Remarks: More affiliated identities will continue to be opened in the future. At that time, players can also choose to give up the cavalry's exclusive talents and skills and replace them with other affiliated identities. There can only be one affiliated identity.
“Seven days later, the game will open a new version of ‘Rebuilding China’.
“Unlock the new copy ‘Heroic and Reckless’.
"This dungeon has a single protagonist, and the difficulty is the highest in the current historical period. Therefore, the clearance mode of this dungeon is different from the past.
"First, this copy does not have the 'Ultimate Trial' link. Once successfully cracked, the 'Orderer's Expedition' will be started directly.
"Second, the dungeon is divided into different stages, allowing players to form teams freely, conquer different stages respectively, and be ranked based on the team's clearance score.
"Third, players and teams with higher ratings will receive more resources and higher positions in this 'Order Expedition'."
After reading the new version update announcement, Chu Ge fell into deep thought.
The content of this update is as rich as ever.
Conventional content, such as movie screenings, upgrades to the land-based gameplay, expansion of the Orderer's talent and skill library, new weapon unlocks, etc. Needless to say, this is something that players have already guessed.
The key is some gameplay that I have never heard of before.
The first is the heroic spirit summoning function.
Judging from the current situation, this seems to be a supplement to the gameplay of the Fortress of the Orderer and the Expedition of the Orderer. It can summon heroic spirits to fight, which can play a role in turning the tide at the critical moment of fighting against monsters.
The second is the unlocking of the subsidiary identity "cavalry".
From what is written in the announcement, the cavalry has a subordinate status, while the previous soldiers, scribes, etc. have basic status.
In other words, warrior players can become cavalry, and scribe players can also become cavalry.
The subsidiary identity does not conflict with the basic identity, but is more like some kind of professional skills certificate.
In fact, according to the basic setting, cavalry is a type of soldier, but after all, riding skills and war horses are too important in the cold weapon era. If soldiers are converted to cavalry, it would be too unfair to the other three professions.
.
Therefore, all four basic professions can be used to ride horses.
Of course, there will definitely be new auxiliary professions in the future for players to choose. But for now, the auxiliary status of this cavalry is definitely like a driver's license in reality, and players have to take the test.
As for whether you can pass the test, that's another matter. The exclusive test for this identity will definitely not be too easy.
In this Orderer expedition, players have realized the power of cavalry.
Without the terrain advantage of the Orderer's fortress, it would probably be difficult for pure infantry players to fight against the Northern Barbarian heavy cavalry.
Now, as long as players can clear the cavalry's exclusive trial, will they be able to obtain special riding talents and war horses?
In that case, the next time the Orderer Expedition is played again, players may be able to organize a cavalry unit to fight the monsters.
Also, this is the "reckless and heroic" dungeon that is said to be the most difficult so far.
Just looking at the name of the version "Rebuilding China", without thinking too much, Chu Ge knew that this must be a copy related to Sheng Taizu.
The poem "With a reckless and heroic spirit" further confirms this point.
But, why is this dungeon with a single protagonist?
Since it is a copy of the protagonist, why do players need to form a team to pass the level?
This seems to be inconsistent with the usual routine of the game "Dark Sand".
Or is it that the production team is going to make a new attempt this time and explore a new dungeon mode?
No matter what, this copy is quite worth looking forward to.
