Seeing these two pieces of news, Zhao Haiping couldn't help but feel refreshed.
This update efficiency is high enough!
After all, "Dark Sand" uses epoch-making VR technology that has never appeared before, so players can't predict how much work it will take to develop a copy.
What if the previous four trial dungeons were the result of several years of work by the development team of "Dark Sands"?
That will have to wait until the next update, I don’t know when it will be.
Fortunately, the official team of "Dark Sand" is very powerful, and there will be no delays at all. After completing the offline activities of this MR mode, the version will be updated immediately.
Zhao Haiping quickly clicked on the new version update announcement to check.
"New version update announcement of "Dark Sand":
"With this update, "Dark Sand" will open new content for players to play, details are as follows.
“First, open the basic function ‘Historical Line’.
"Historical line is the basic mechanism of "Dark Sand". The long river of history connects the ancient times and reality. The closer to the ancient times, the thinner people's collective memory is, and the stronger the power of demons. Therefore, as the strength of the orderers increases,
The historical line will be unlocked from near to far, from easy to difficult.
"The current stage of opening up the historical line: the middle and late period of the Dasheng Dynasty.
"Unlock the illusion of trial: the matter must be settled before the coffin is closed.
“Two, open the advanced function ‘Ultimate Trial’.
“On the basis of the standard trial illusion, the ultimate trial illusion of hell difficulty will be unlocked.
"Compared with the standard trial illusion, the hell difficulty trial illusion will have the following improvements: the pain sensation will be increased to 100%; the enemy AI will be increased to the highest level; the content of the hell difficulty trial illusion may be slightly changed compared to the standard trial illusion; there will only be one challenge opportunity.
“Only the players with the best performance in the standard trial illusion will get the opportunity to enter the hell difficulty trial illusion. Depending on the illusion, the system will automatically select 1 to 5 players to enter at the same time and cooperate to crack the illusion.
“After clearing the Hell Difficulty Trial Fantasy, the system will automatically edit it into a film and meet the public in the form of a movie.
“Third, open the advanced function ‘Expedition of the Orderer’.
"After outstanding players successfully complete the ultimate trial, the barriers of the historical slice will be broken down, and other players can also enter the slice to eliminate demons through networking and team battle gameplay, and transform the historical slice.
“Four, internal beta player qualifications are issued.
“In this phase, an additional 10,000 internal beta qualifications will be issued.
"Among the first batch of internal beta qualifications, players who have not yet been able to clear any trial dungeon will automatically have their internal beta qualifications withdrawn.
"The withdrawn internal testing qualifications will be issued together with the new internal testing qualifications, and the drawing rules remain unchanged."
This update announcement has a lot of content and is full of useful information.
Zhao Haiping read it twice carefully, for fear of missing any details.
"So, the newly unlocked historical line is the official content of this game? The previous trial copies of the four identities are actually just tutorials for novices.
"This ultimate trial is a bit interesting, but the restrictions are too harsh. Out of the 20,000 closed beta players, only 1 to 5 people can participate, and there is only one chance to challenge?
"And the difficulty of this dungeon is simply terrifying. What is the concept of 100% pain? If you really want to be stabbed, unless you have a special talent, you will lose your combat effectiveness on the spot, right?"
"Is this forcing players to be harmless?
"What's more, the enemy's AI can actually be improved again.
"Now the enemy AI in ordinary dungeons is already so exaggerated. If it is improved again, wouldn't all of them have to become sophisticated?
"And there is only one chance. In other words, you have to clear the level repeatedly in the ordinary trial copy to figure out all the details. You also have to adapt to various emergencies and properly handle various emergencies.
"It can be said that it was a narrow escape from death.
"However, the rewards after clearing the level are indeed very generous. The official will automatically release the film and directly make the entire process into a movie. This is a great opportunity to show your face in front of players around the world; and whether you clear the Hell Difficulty Trial directly determines the 'ordering'
Can the copy of "The Expedition" be opened.
"If the player selected to participate in the Hell Difficulty Trial fails, does that mean that all internal beta players around the world will not be able to play this online game? A large part of the game will simply not be open to players?
“It’s outrageous, it’s outrageous, how could there be such an outrageous game official!
"but……
"Thinking about it from another angle, isn't this the ultimate dream of all hardcore gamers?"
Some games in the past also had settings such as "Expert Difficulty". The characters in the game only had one life. If they died once, the life would be immediately eliminated, and all the previous efforts would be in vain.
Only top players who have a thorough understanding of the game mechanics and are most confident in themselves dare to try this level of difficulty.
The "ultimate trial" of "Dark Sand" is equivalent to expert difficulty.
This difficulty level is even somewhat close to the real difficulty level in history. Except for the fact that you can master part of the information through repeated simulation trials in advance (but there may be slight changes in hell difficulty), and you can strengthen yourself through the power of the Orderer, other difficulties are
Completely consistent with real history.
Moreover, players will face huge psychological pressure if they challenge this level of difficulty.
On the one hand, it is because you know that you only have one chance and you must not fail. On the other hand, it is because your performance will directly determine whether other players can experience an important part of the game.
If this fails, will we be sprayed to death by players around the world?
Just thinking about it, I think it’s so exciting.
This kind of pressure is even higher than the global finals of some major e-sports events.
But for truly hardcore players, this is indeed an excellent stage. Once successful, it means that you can become famous overnight and be admired and worshiped by countless people!
Of course, it’s useless to think so far away now, because this challenge opportunity is also earned by oneself.
You have to perform your best in the regular trial dungeons before you can be selected by the system to participate in the ultimate trial.
The number of players in the closed beta this time has doubled again, to 20,000. Whether they are new players or old players, they are basically game masters or special professions in reality. After the crazy competition, these few players
No one can guarantee who will receive the quota.
Zhao Haiping could only make up his mind silently and get angry!
Set a small goal first, get the first pass in a normal trial fantasy world, and then try to get through without any injuries.
The trial copy updated this time is called "The matter has yet to be settled, and the coffin must be closed." It can only be determined that it is a historical slice of the mid-to-late period of the Dasheng Dynasty. Moreover, it is probably not a large-scale historical event, but probably a small incident in a small place.
event.
As for the enemies, most of them are the monsters we fought in this offline event, Dongyi bandits.
Other than that, I can't analyze any other content. I can only wait until I log into the game at 10pm tonight to read it.
On the forum, players are also frantically discussing the content of the new version of "Dark Sand". Of course, many people are also making wishes, hoping that they will be lucky enough to qualify for the closed beta this time.
If you miss this time, I don’t know if the qualifications for closed beta will be expanded next time. It’s the Year of the Monkey and the Horse has passed. Can you not be in a hurry?
The scarcity of qualifications for internal testing has even given rise to a specialized playing business.
Although no one currently knows the specific screening rules for the "Dark Sand" internal beta slots, many people speculate that if you have rich experience in action VR games, you may increase your chance of being selected.
"Dark Sand" uses EEG ripple recognition and cannot buy or sell closed beta qualifications. However, if you hire a proxy player to increase your experience in action VR games on your game account, can you increase your probability of being selected?
Many people have made similar attempts.
Unfortunately, their expectations are destined to be disappointed.
…
While players have unlimited expectations for the new content of "Dark Sand", major media reports on the epoch-making consciousness connection technology used in "Dark Sand" have also triggered a lot of discussion.
Although many players have speculated on the technical principles of "Dark Sand" before, they are just guesses after all.
There are still countless mysteries surrounding this company that remain unsolved.
But this time, several authoritative official media outlets in China also spoke out at the same time, reporting in a high-profile manner the epoch-making consciousness connection technology of "Ansha"!
Although the report is not very detailed, it can be regarded as solving the players' doubts.
After all, this is likely to involve vital business secrets, and it is understandable that many things cannot be discussed in detail.
