Chapter 1101 V1.50 Patch(Chapter Preview)
Chapter 1101 V1.50 Patch(Chapter Preview)
11th month, 22nd day, midnight.
72 hours after the server was closed, an announcement appeared on dream Inc.'S official website.
The content is as follows:
[Dear players, as you can see, in the S2 finals of the tournament of the best, which ended in the early morning of November 19th, the V1.10 version of the 'invasion of the anomaly' story has come to an end.
Due to the unexpected change of world bosses in the cross-version event, the plot of the new version of Ragnarok was seriously affected.
In the past 70 hours or so, our technical staff and script editors have worked overtime to deal with this incident and have made corresponding adjustments.
We are happy to inform all players: The server of Thriller Paradise would reopen on December 1st. At that time, Thriller Paradise would skip the V1.20 version of "Twilight of the Gods" and directly upgrade to the V1.50 final version of "endless world". Please look forward to it!]
When this announcement was made, it was almost at the time when the patience of the tens of thousands of players and various studios had reached its limit ...
Just as the internet and various media outlets began to post comments like "Thriller Paradise's server has crashed and is facing major repairs" or "are dream Inc. Going to pack up and leave?" And so on, this announcement came out of nowhere, and those who made a living by fabricating fake news and writing soft articles for advertisements were once again collectively tricked.
Many 'media companies' that specialized in this line of work had even prepared a series of articles to defame dream Inc. All they had to do next was to find a few interested online gaming companies and negotiate with them. Then, they could insert their soft advertisements into the articles and they would have earned money. However, with the bombshell from dream Inc., Everyone's efforts over the past two days had been in vain.
…………
On the other hand, the players 'reaction to this news ... Could be imagined.
In the middle of the night, the topic of discussion on all the major forums shifted from "S2" to the new version,"endless world."
Although there was still more than a week to go before the server opened, the players were already eager to try and couldn't wait.
Thriller Paradise's number of registrations had once again seen a huge increase, and the sales of the gaming pods had also reached a new high.
In the period before the official announcement of the new patch, all the "uncle's faction" also took action and showed their abilities ... They all took advantage of this time to spread false rumors, each of them speaking with certainty and as if it were true.
Generally speaking, there were two types of "uncles 'fans"... The first type was those who were playing games or wanted to make their presence known. These types were mostly just spouting nonsense according to their own fantasies.
As for the second type ... It was naturally a hired gun. These uncle fans were often much more professional than the first type, and their writing and lying skills were not to be underestimated. The most common method was to list out a series of non-existent details, or add a few fake pictures in the post that ordinary people might not be able to understand to increase the credibility of the news ... It could be said that they had a lot of good intentions. Of course, their main purpose was to mix some "information they wanted to convey" into the fake disclosures to promote the sales of certain products.
For example ... If you were selling game currency on a third-party platform, you should hire someone like that to stir up a wave on the forum and get him to hint in the post that "game currency will appreciate greatly in the new version". Or ... If you were selling gaming peripherals, you could post some fake news, saying that 'the new version of Thriller Paradise will support certain types of gaming peripherals, and there will be a mysterious prize for the purchase'.
Such marketing tactics were no longer strange ... Those who were fooled would just take it as a lesson and learn next time.
…………
Another 24 hours passed.
Finally, dream Inc. Listed the patch for the new version on the front page of their official website.
V1.50——
[Version Summary]
Fighting demon appeared, but the demon head disappeared.
God of eternal life, hidden in the mirror world.
The spirit King ascended the throne with the corpse God as his assistant.
The court changed hands, but the truth still remained.
After the Twilight of the Gods, the four pillar gods fell one after another.
Four new forces rose rapidly in the ruins of the old dynasty.
Origin, Z organization, the church of illusions, the reasoning club, the Blackbeard Pirates, and other powerful forces were also active in the main universe.
Thriller Paradise welcomed a new era of freedom and infinite possibilities.
Character adjustment
In the new version, the level cap for players would be adjusted to level 60, and the experience required for level 50 and above would not increase.
The upper limit of the player's skill bar will be adjusted to fifteen slots, and the three additional slots will have to be purchased with game coins.
Mode adjustment.
The single survival mode and team survival mode (including normal and nightmare) generated in the sleep server will have a higher probability of producing long-term scenarios.
The 'AFK judgment' mechanism in The Killing Game will become stricter, and the punishment for AFK players will be increased again.
[Changes in items, goods, and services]
The shopping center has been fully upgraded and rebuilt.
After the invasion of the anomaly, the shop owners and the system's guard robots had gone through special training, and their strength had increased.
All the shops had a large number of new goods, including new equipment, weapons, hairstyles, clothes, and so on.
The thriller box now had a 'pre-order function'. Players could apply for an 'automatic trade after the purchase conditions' by putting up skill points as collateral.
[Adjustment to the game]
The game's graphics have greatly improved.
The title system would add a self-choice function. Every time a title was changed, the player could choose whether to accept the new title after observing the new title's ability and receive a "old title selection".
[Note: after the end of this update, all players will be able to choose their old titles once (this right will only be available for 24 hours after the player first logs in). They can choose from all the titles they have previously owned.]
…………
There were many keywords in the above content that had been set up with links. Clicking on them would reveal relevant information.
For example, terms like "fighting demon,""God of eternal life,""Spirit King,""Origin," and "Z organization" could all be opened and viewed.
However, none of these NPCs, anomalies, or organizations had any images. All they had were written records. Moreover, most of the contents recorded were basic settings that everyone knew. For players who had access to more in-depth game content, this information was meaningless, but for novices, it was a good science.
As for the 'increase in level cap', most players had already expected it. In fact, 99% of the players thought that the experience points gained after level 50 would increase to nine digits according to the previous trend ... Therefore, when they saw the sentence "the experience points will not increase anymore", they were surprised.
In addition, there was another change that many people had guessed in advance, and that was the "expansion of the skill bar."
Indeed, based on the game's current development, the twelve skill bars could no longer meet the needs of high-end players, so it was reasonable to expand. As for the price ... Just like the expansion of the inventory, this advantage that could be bought with 'money' was definitely not cheap ... With this change alone, dream Inc. Would be able to make a fortune.
Next, let's take a look at the 'pre-order function' of the new service, the 'thriller box'.
To put it simply, this function was developed for players who had their eyes on a piece of equipment that was about to expire but did not have enough skill points at the moment.
For example ... A player saw an equipment that required 1000 skill points to buy in the thriller box, but he only had 500 skill points and couldn't buy it. Moreover, the item would be deleted in less than a day, and it might be too late to save 500 skill points in the remaining day.
At this time, he could use the "pre-order function" and pay a deposit of 40% of the item's total price ... Which was 400 skill points ... To have the system extend the item's lifespan.
Of course, if the item was bought by someone else in full before the deletion limit, it could not be helped. After all, the deposit would be returned in full.
And if the item was not bought by anyone within the deleting period, then ... As an item that had been 'pre-ordered', it would not be immediately deleted. The system would place it in a specific 'pre-order area' and wait for the 'pre-order player' to collect the full amount. At this time, only players who had paid the deposit could search for the item.
Then, within the next 72 hours, as long as one of the pre-orders 'skill points met the requirement to pay the full amount, the transaction would be automatically completed. The moment the transaction was completed, the system would send an email to the other players who had paid the deposit, stating that "the item you had reserved has already been bought by someone else." It would also refund the skill points that had been deposited along with the email.
However, if all the players who had pre-ordered the item failed to collect the full amount within those 72 hours, the item would be deleted, and each pre-order would have to pay 5% of the item's price as late payment.
That was the general setting of the pre-order function.
In the past few months, dream Inc. Had received quite a number of comments regarding this when they were collecting players 'opinions. Many players had expressed that sometimes, when they found an item they wanted in the thriller box, they would only be short of a few skill points and could not afford it. By the time he finished the scenario and came back with enough skill points, the item had already been bought or deleted due to the time limit ... This kind of experience was undoubtedly quite depressing.
p
Therefore, with this version upgrade, they developed this new function. (Small changes like this that had little to do with the scenario space and the service type were not handled by Woody, but by the game company's technical department.)
In the future, if the players came across something that they really wanted but needed skill points to purchase, they could pre-order it. This way, they would not have to wait until they finished the scenario to pay. After all, as long as they paid the deposit, they could enjoy the 'automatic transaction once they had enough skill points' service.
In that case, the last thing I have to say ... Is the adjustment to the title system.
In fact, the system did not make any major changes. It was still up to the system to determine what new titles the players would get. However, this time, the player has the right to choose not to accept the new title, and ... Every time the title is changed, they can choose one of the titles they have obtained in the past and change it. This would give the players a chance to "change" their style, and it would have a considerable impact on future PVP.
Obviously, this change was also based on user feedback ...
Many players had asked customer service to get back their old titles that had been replaced because new titles were not as useful as the old ones.
This type of player ... Most of them had once had a title ability that they were very good at using, and their skills and equipment were all matched with that ability as the core. In the end ... One day, their title suddenly changed, and their entire character's combat power directly dropped by a level.
In such a situation, they could only admit that they were unlucky, because titles could not be changed back, and they could not be changed according to their own will.
Now, this problem could be considered solved ...
…………
23rd of November, 2 am.
Dream Inc. Seemed to always have a way to pull people's attention back when they were about to leave, even on the day of closing ... It was no exception.
It had only been a day since the patch for the new version was announced, but dream Inc. Had already made two more announcements on their official website.
From 3 pm this afternoon, part of Thriller Paradise's server will be open, and the trial operation of the new version will begin. [At that time, all players who have the ' 48-hour experience of the new version' will be able to log into the game.]
There were only 250 players who were 'qualified' to experience the game, which were the top 50 teams in the S2 preliminary round. So ... This news had nothing to do with most of the people.
In addition, the details of the announcement also stated: During the limited time trial period, the game would only open the queue for single player survival mode and free exploration mode.
This was to be expected. There were only so many people in the entire server who could go online. If they opened team mode or killing game, in solo mode ... They would either meet acquaintances or be unable to match teammates or opponents for a long time.
Also, the event had a deadline. At 9 p.m. On November 29th, the server would shut down again. Those who hadn't used up their 48 hours by then would have wasted it.
Then, he looked at the second announcement: [crazy thinking will be officially launched on November 25th.]
The players 'reaction to this news was still okay ... But the gaming industry's professionals were caught off guard.
No one would have expected ... That the long-delayed card game developed by dream Inc. Would suddenly be released just as Thriller Paradise's new version was about to be released. (To be continued.)
