While players are discussing the previous games enthusiastically, the new version update announcement of "Dark Sand" has also been released.
"New version update announcement of "Dark Sand":
"After the players worked together to help Liang Taizong clear up the troubled times and subdue the barbarians, the historical slice of "Today's Peace in the Universe" has been successfully conquered.
"During the battle with the Great Demon Gonggong, the Fortress of the Orderer was severely damaged. The available city construction plans and the list of weapons purchased by players have been updated. Please enter the game to view the specific situation.
"The various abilities of the Orderer have been upgraded accordingly.
""Dark Sand" will enter a new version preparation state for seven days:
"1. The content of the clearance clips of "Now the Universe is Ping" will be updated in different ways:
""The Music of the King of Qin" will be released in video form on the video website;
“The Battle of Hulao Pass will be released as a war simulation game;
""Xuanwumen Change" will be released in the form of an interactive game;
“Second, in the land-conferencing gameplay, the scope of the Orderer’s fortress and player’s fiefdom will be further expanded. After connecting to the new historical slice, the surrounding terrain will undergo more changes.
“More new craftsmen and shops will appear in the Fortress and fiefdoms of the Orderer, and more resource points will be unlocked. The opening of new content will be parallel to the construction of the Fortress of the Orderer and will not affect each other.
“Players can use construction points in the Orderer’s Fortress to purchase various new weapons such as Liang Dao, Mo Dao, and Mingguang Armor.
"Third, the heroic spirit summoning function has been upgraded.
"The heroic spirits currently available for summoning are: General Deng Yuanjing, Sheng Taizu, Prime Minister Wang Wenchuan (double form), Yu Jiaxuan, General Han Fuyue, Liang Taizong, and Yuchi Jingde.
“Four, internal testing qualifications are issued.
“In this phase, an additional 100,000 internal beta qualifications will be issued, bringing the total number of internal beta players to 300,000.
“New internal beta quotas will be selected according to the original mechanism.
"Special note: Depending on the historical slice, the number of players carried by the Orderer Expedition gameplay is also different. In some special circumstances, you may have to screen before entering the Orderer Expedition. Players are asked to be brave in their own advantages. Fight first.
"Five, number of resurrections +1
“In the Orderer Expedition gameplay, due to the enhancement of the Orderer’s power, the number of resurrections for all players increases by one.
"Seven days later, the game will open a new version of 'Dan Shi Longcheng Fei Jiang', the specific update content is as follows.
"First, a batch of new talents and skills have been unlocked in the Orderer's talent and skill library, and the 'A', 'B', and 'C' skill levels have been unlocked.
"Two, some talent skills will be unlocked as permanent talent skills. Permanent talent skills will not occupy the original talent skill slots.
“Third, unlock the copy ‘Sealing the Wolf and Juxu’.
"After the players worked together and defeated all four great demons in succession, the demon king Chi You has realized the powerful threat of the Orderers and decided to use all his strength to pursue and intercept the Orderers.
"Players please be prepared for the final battle with Demon Lord Chi You at any time!"
…
As soon as the update announcement came out, players immediately started a heated discussion.
"Hey, this copy is released in three different forms?"
"Is the music of King Qin's Breaking the Formation equivalent to a direct release of the MV? Yes, it has real historical scenes, coupled with the real performances at that time, it will definitely have to be played a hundred times!"
"The Battle of Hulao Pass will be released as a simulated war game? Like Total War? That would be exciting!"
"Does that mean that ordinary players can also experience the battlefield of the Battle of Hulao Pass in this game? Choose different forces, choose different playing methods, and watch real fighting on the vast battlefield. It makes you feel excited just thinking about it!"
"Yes, most people have no idea about the real battlefield. Although many videos of "Dark Sand" have been released before, after all, everyone is not personally commanding the operation. Now that the game is released, more people should be able to experience it.
It’s a real battlefield!”
“I don’t know if the game’s configuration is high or not, and how to operate it. It seems quite complicated!”
"What's the point? The official "Dark Sand" has even made a VR game with consciousness connection. How difficult is it to intercept a part and make a simulated war game?"
"And it can also cultivate potential players! Maybe if you play "Battle of Hulao Pass" well, you will be more likely to qualify for the internal beta of "Dark Sand"?"
"Speaking of which, the internal beta qualifications issued are already 300,000 yuan! When will the server be officially launched!"
"I don't know... There are 300,000 people online in this game at the same time, but it's obviously not yet at the point where it can be completely released. If it were completely released, it wouldn't be surprising if the number of people is estimated to skyrocket to millions or tens of millions..."
"Three hundred thousand people are online at the same time. In other games, it is already a world-destroying level, but in this game, it is only a closed beta. It's outrageous!"
"The "Xuanwu Gate Change" is also open, which means that we can continue to explore other details in the game."
"Well, it's a bit similar to the previous copy of "Eight Thousand Miles of Clouds and Moon", but this one should have more details."
"The fiefdom and the Fortress of the Orderer have been upgraded again, but the Fortress of the Orderer was destroyed! Do they need to be rebuilt first?"
"The official didn't even mention a word about reconstruction! Does this mean that the official deliberately destroyed the Orderer's fortress and let us continue to lay bricks?"
"But there are new craftsmen, shops, and new equipment such as Liang Dao, Mo Dao, and Mingguang Armor, so it's not bad."
"Actually, whether the Fortress of the Orderer is destroyed or not has nothing to do with us. Anyway, we have already obtained the construction points. If we move bricks again, we can earn another construction point."
"This time I did all the remaining three big demons in one go. I absorbed so much demonic energy. I think I need to upgrade to a bigger one."
"That's all the plot of the game, you upstairs are into the drama!"
"The key point is to increase the number of resurrections by 1. It is simply an epic enhancement! Finally, I have one more life to roam around!"
"The new copy is Fenglang Juxu! Looking forward to it!"
"But what does it mean that Demon Lord Chi You will come for a decisive battle at any time? What does it mean that we should be prepared? Will he come or not?"
"Then it looks like it will probably come..."
"In short, Chu Ge and the big guys just need to be prepared and think of ways to deal with it. How should we play?"
…
With the release of the latest three works, the entire Internet has once again set off a craze.
Many people who have not qualified for the closed beta are waiting eagerly!
There is no way to enter "Dark Sand" to experience those hearty battles in person. We can only experience it this way after players have cleared the game.
Huo Yunying was at home and had just finished playing the video of "Qin Wang Breaking the Formation" and the game "Xuanwu Gate Change".
They were published on video websites and game platforms respectively, and the number of views and downloads so far has been growing rapidly.
The playback volume of "The Music of the King of Qin" has exceeded 10 million in a very short period of time, and according to this trend, it is only a matter of time before the playback volume exceeds 50 million or even over 100 million.
The amount of barrages was even denser and overwhelming, and even a large number of foreign media reprinted it.
The game "Xuanwumen Change" is similar to the previous "Eight Thousand Miles of Clouds and Moon", both are in the form of interactive videos.
It's just that "Xuanwumen Change" is not just about making choices like an interactive video, but you can focus on various little people and see the details of their various behaviors. The whole game is like a huge treasure house, with
Countless details are waiting for players to discover.
There are already many specialized scholars or history enthusiasts who are frantically reviewing the process, trying to fully analyze the truth of the Xuanwumen Incident and determine what the political situation was like at that time.
But what Huo Yunying cares more about is the war simulation game "The Battle of Hulao Pass".
So far, Huo Yunying's life has also been greatly changed because of the game "Dark Sand".
He relied on the popularity he gained in the game to open a martial arts gym, with an endless stream of students. Now he teaches classes in the martial arts gym during the day and struggles in "Dark Sand" at night. It can be said that he is doing what he likes 24 hours a day.
This may also be an important positive effect of the emergence of "Dark Sand": it has freed many players from boring jobs, able to do things they like, and earn a lot of money, completely changing their lives.
Huo Yunying enters the game "The Battle of Hulao Pass".
"Hey, this game is so detailed!"
This was Huo Yunying's first reaction.
The content of this game is actually not complicated. After entering the game, the title interface only has a few simple options.
They are: [Story Mode], [Customized Battlefield], [Battle Mode], [Options] and [Exit Game].
Among them, the plot mode is to experience the entire process of the Battle of Hulao Pass under the specific historical conditions at that time.
Players can choose to play as any of the three forces including King Qin, Wang Shichong, and Dou Jiande. The ultimate goal of the plot mission is to win the Battle of Hulao Pass.
Of course, there are different difficulty levels, namely [Easy], [Medium], [Difficult], and [Real], of which the real difficulty is of course the highest.
The difficulty of winning for these three parties is of course different, but which one is more difficult is really hard to say.
The biggest difficulty for the King of Qin was not only to win the tough battle with Wang Shichong in the early stage and lock him firmly in Luoyang City without being able to come out, but also to defeat Dou Jiande's 100,000 army with only a few thousand men.
What about Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande? These two forces do have a certain numerical advantage, but the problem is that there is King Qin on the opposite side.
Players all recalled the tragic situation of being killed by King Qin in the simulated trial.
Therefore, these three forces are all very difficult to play, and it is difficult to say which one is more difficult.
The plot has been carefully divided into different stages, and the entire large battle has been broken down into many small modules to facilitate players to experience it in stages, from easy to difficult.
[Customized battlefield] allows players to use existing materials, including different scenes and different arms, to customize battles.
For those UP owners who like to engage in sandbox deductions in games, this is simply an ecstatic mode.
Because there are too few similar games that simulate real battlefields, and many of them are old games, and the physics engine and image quality are not very good. This wave of enhancements can be said to be epic.
What's more, the materials in "Dark Sand" can basically be used at will, so you don't have to worry about any copyright issues when you put them in the video.
As for the [Battle Mode], it is even more interesting. It allows players to match up and fight in pairs, but currently it supports up to three parties, and any more will not be supported.
What surprised Huo Yunying even more was that the optimization of this game was so good!
There are obviously so many soldiers running around on the screen, the battlefield is so large, and calculations seem to be happening everywhere, but the CPU and graphics card usage is not high. This is simply unscientific.
However, considering the various black technologies used by the producers of "Dark Sand", including the realization of VR technology that connects consciousness, it is not surprising that this little PC optimization technology is so extraordinary.
Of course, the only drawback is that this game is limited by the representation of the client. It cannot be completely realistic like the game "Dark Sand". For example, you can't really give orders through voice, and you can only give orders during battles.
Operations such as archery and chopping can be performed through the keyboard, mouse or handle, but it is impossible to be precise about how to exert force.
But in many other aspects, it still restores the real battlefield as much as possible.
For example, the soldiers here are not emotionless robots. They all have their own ideas, and it is easy for them to mutiny or collapse in a real cold weapon battlefield.
It is impossible to expect soldiers to perfectly execute their tactical instructions like other strategy games.
Tactical strategies, morale boosting, adaptability during battle, etc. are all very important. Any shortcomings may lead to a collapse of the battlefield.
Compared with other strategy games or combat simulation games, this is of course much more difficult, but "Dark Sand" is also a game that focuses on reality.
For the players of "Dark Sand", they have already experienced it in a real battlefield. The difficulty has been reduced a bit when switching to PC, and they can be played as daily entertainment. For ordinary players who want to experience a real battlefield,
He was even more ecstatic.
Finally there is such a realistic war simulation game!
However, what makes players a little disappointed in this update is that there are no new auxiliary identities for the time being, so there will be no copies of Cavalry, Divine Machine or Trial of a Man for players to play.
but……
The Fortress of the Orderer has just been destroyed, why not take this opportunity to rebuild it?
You can also save some construction points to buy new equipment such as Liang Dao, Mo Dao, and Mingguang Armor. Moreover, the quality of Liang Dynasty's war horses is also very high. Wouldn't it be nice to update all the equipment?
In this way, players are happily looking forward to the arrival of the new version.
