Chapter 403 Open Server and Honor Store(1/3)
As soon as he logged into the game, Liu Yifei quickly discovered the obvious difference after the upgraded version of the game!
In the game's login interface, the system has actually changed to a war CG animation that is automatically embedded and played!
And this animation intercepts two scenes that Liu Yifei is familiar with:
The first is the scene when the Dragon Queen Moriel came to the Tower Clan, with her huge 100-meter-long dragon body spreading her giant wings in the harsh cold wind of the Tower Clan~
There are also dozens of white-bearded archmages from the Tower Clan who are jointly casting spells to suppress the Dragon Queen’s magic power!
Liu Yifei could be said to have "personally experienced" this scene. He was deeply impressed and recognized it at a glance. (No..., pop-up window...
After the CG animation, there was a sudden jump to the second war zone with a different background. Liu Yifei had not experienced the war situation in this war zone personally, but he was very familiar with the people in the CG animation.
Surprisingly, it is the old vampire Toradre!
The scene shown was the scene where Thoradre commanded the Solna royal army to fight the enemy Jilie in the southern war zone!
And the so-called "enemies" are naturally the millions of huge elven players themselves~
Although in that "cleaning" battle, the elven players were definitely hard-pressed characters who "will not retaliate even if they are scolded or beaten"
But as far as the CG animation itself is concerned, the scene is still quite magnificent!
No matter how you put it, the millions of dense alien armies lined up on the ground at least look impressive!
Even if the order and fighting qualities of those people are actually much lower than imagined
Judging from the results of this simple login cg animation change, the war atmosphere rendered by the game itself is much stronger!
Inspired by the astonishing noises and whistling sounds that could only occur on a huge battlefield, Liu Yifei joined the game with great interest. Then he appeared in the Tower Clan where he had logged off before.
In the military camp of Mercury's former capital
The game time when online and offline is basically the same, but in fact, a full three days and seventy-two hours have passed~
It's just that such a passage of time is obviously impossible to be noticed by NPCs, so all NPCs are just doing what they were doing three days ago. It is as if nothing different has happened.
However, for players, this is a completely new and very different world!
The so-called "new world" is not just about various new settings and clarification of new rules. It is also about the slight changes in the player visual interface~
The biggest difference is that
The "game minimap" that was always displayed in the upper right corner of the visual interface is missing.
The role of the mini map cannot be ignored in the game. Hostile units are locked within a small range, automatic destination marking in town areas, and shortest shortcut selection are available.
It can be said that the "mini map" has brought constant convenience to players in the past~
However, one of the official update tips previously released was to “completely cancel the map system”!
Actually~
1683
Not only the small land in the player visual interface, but also the "big map" that players could switch to view has also been cancelled!
Nowadays, if players want to figure out where they are or the general terrain of a new area that has not been explored in depth, then the player can only "get a map". The "map" referred to is the kind that is actually drawn on parchment.
It is a real prop that players need to carry, rather than a service system that comes with the system~
Naturally everyone is aware of this change and there are many people complaining on the forum~
But after all, everyone has been cancelled, so everyone is equal. So there is not much room for complaint~
At the same time, the game company’s reasons are also very concise and powerful:
In the past, these convenient service peripheral systems were provided because players were still very fragile and needed better protection and guidance.
But now, everyone's strength is growing rapidly and will become extremely powerful!
There is no need for these auxiliary systems~
On the contrary, canceling these systems can also increase the overall mystery and difficulty of exploration in the world, and also make the game itself more playable.
Okay~
For the reason that it would make the game more playable, everyone accepted this setting.
But thinking about it carefully, Liu Yifei felt that it was another burst of subconscious joy!
He has had the "strange problem" of drawing wherever he goes for a long time. He has complained about it before ~
Unexpectedly, it seems that this time there seems to be another source of wealth silently?
Even if it is a simple matter like manufacturing rough maps and selling them in batches, if the research is done well, it will not be in vain!
Especially nowadays, there are very few ghost players from the elves and ghosts who want to sneak around while the elves players gather in large numbers at their own borders. In this regard, Liu Yifei does have quite a lot of route options to provide.
someone else's
There are quite a few small setting changes like this. Everyone needs to go there for a while to get familiar with them~
The updates on the big system are what people really want to try, and one thing you absolutely can’t miss is naturally the new “Honor Store”!
Liu Yifei's appearance was so well-known that he changed his clothes in the military camp and then followed the flow of people towards the teleportation array of the military camp and headed straight to the nearest tower-shaped city around the military camp.
This is because Liu Yifei has fought many battles for the Talou clan before, and his racial reputation is sufficient. Otherwise, I am afraid that he would really be unable to move forward at this moment~
If you want to experience the power of the "Honor Store", you have to go all the way back to your home territory first~
It's just that Liu Yifei's journey was by no means easy.
The further forward and closer to the goal, the more crowded the crowd becomes!
By the end, the entire team had come to a standstill! Liu Yifei was so angry that he wanted to recruit a big bone dragon to crush a bloody path out of the crowd!
It's a pity that this place is not the ghost clan's own territory after all. Otherwise, if Liu Yifei was really annoyed, he might really do that~
Everyone has experienced this feeling, such as when there is a serious traffic jam.
It only took Liu Yifei less than a minute to get from the military camp to the tower city. However, it took him more than an hour to get from the city teleportation array to the honor shop, which almost made him angry~
fine!
After officially entering the Honor Store, the situation has been greatly improved.
The spaces in this so-called "Honor Store" obviously overlap. That is, although players here can also see each other, their bodies are illusory and translucent, and weapons are completely prohibited, and they will no longer cause damage to each other.
Any congestion~
Now Liu Yifei really feels like a fish in water~
Because when tens of millions of people are crowded into such a small place at the same time, you can’t even see clearly who is who or any face. All you can see in front of you are densely packed overlapping figures and even
You can even see weird pictures of "half face" from time to time. It would be damning if someone could recognize Liu Yifei again~
No longer worried, Liu Yifei carefully examined the various exchange items that the "Honor Store" could provide~
In general, the types of items that can be exchanged are similar to those provided by the battlefield clerk in the war zone.
The slight difference is that the products in the Honor Store seem to be more "expensive".
Liu Yifei traveled all over the country and participated in many alien battles, so he still has a lot of say in this matter~
Generally speaking, the types of supplies and equipment provided here are about the mid-to-low-end categories that NPC kings can provide. They do not have the various high-end or even top-quality items that the clerk can provide in actual battles.
At the same time, prices have also increased significantly.
It is indeed an effective way to compensate, but if possible, the supplies players need are not as good as going to the war zone clerk to replenish them.
The "Honor Store" should be more of a compensation measure for players who do not have official battles breaking out around the game area.
After all, if there is no battle, there will be no battlefield scribes who can exchange items, but it is not necessary to be on the battlefield to obtain military merit. For example, Liu Yifei and the others have learned that "official craftsmen" want to earn military merit very easily~ For players in non-war zones
, now they finally have a place to spend the huge amount of military power they have in their hands.
Walking around the equipment area and supply area, Liu Yifei didn't find anything that aroused his interest.
Then he earned his latest "pet zone".
After the 3.0 version of "War and Bonds" was launched, the "Pet System" began to spread completely. Each player can spend money to purchase "Pet Boxes" of different grades. The lowest grade can only store three pets, while the highest grade one can only store three pets.
It can store ten. At the same time, it can also add some basic attributes to give the pet a small improvement~
Ordinary players naturally don’t have much choice. If they want to find a good pet, they have to go out and search hard.
But for "big lords" like Liu Yifei, it's much simpler~
As long as the hero himself agrees, players can now even spend money to turn hero NPCs who originally had to sign a contract and pay a lot of rewards into their contracted pets!
The convenience brought about by this is even "unconventional", and its help is no different from the soul crystals that Liu Yifei sold in large quantities before!
Of course~
The more powerful and autonomous a hero is, the more difficult it is to gain their approval.
After all, after becoming the player's contracted pet, it becomes a puppet that has completely lost its personal freedom. Whether it succeeds or not, the player himself has to do a lot of groundwork.
However, at least Liu Yifei has a subordinate Bomian who is very suitable to be transformed into a "pet"!
This original "legendary level" zombie mage hero was obtained by Liu Yifei in the ghost clan secret realm. It is powerful in itself, and even in the racial secret realm, it is a little king-like existence~
It's a pity that this guy was too ambitious. In the end, he angered His Majesty the "Sunsleeper", and Liu Yifei's "boss" at the time, Zaire, took the opportunity to kill him!
