新内容上线,还有新时代的消息
向各位流放者问好,
今天,我们要公布一个大消息!众所周知,《Conan Exiles》一直在不断发展,我们团队的开发方式也是如此。这一次有几个重要话题:
- 今天的新内容
- 新的更新架构
- 战斗通行证
新内容:悬赏活动和DBNO
悬赏活动回归,这次有了一些改进,还有新的奖励。在整个流放之地,你现在能看到好几个营地,里面的人崇拜迈卡摩西。他是一个强大的术士,不允许有后起之秀超过他。
追捕新生的术士,带他们回来就能获得独特的新奖励。活着的术士最有价值,但他们的头颅也有价值。为了配合这次活动回归,我们增加了新奖励,包括契泰奴隶服装、闪亮的新短棍和捆绑工具,帮你把那些术士完好无损地抓回来。
倒地但不死(DBNO)系统来了!有了这个备受期待的功能,你的仆役在生命值耗尽时不再永久死亡。他们会进入倒地状态,在此期间你可以复苏他们。但要注意,如果你的仆役在一定时间内被击倒三次,它就会永远死去。在这种“冲击”结束之前,请务必让他们远离麻烦。
本次更新是我们首次使用这样方式,我们添加了新内容,但它不是主要章节更新。
内容更新的新架构和节奏
自Age of Sorcery开始以来,在Age of War的大部分时间里,我们差不多每三个月发布一次章节更新。这对我们来说是一个新挑战,我们从中学到了很多东西(也发布了很多内容)。
这种节奏不算最理想;我们希望对发布内容的质量、数量和类型完全满意。
为了找到最理想的节奏,我们将章节更新的时间延长到大约每六个月一次,并在这些更新之间增加一次较小的更新。今天的更新便是第一次。
我们认为,有了这些时间,我们能完全准备好章节更新里内容,同时能在期间加入一些较小的更新,例如新事件和回归的事件(伴有外观物品奖励),还可以改进游戏的品质并且修复错误等。
下一个时代没有战斗通行证
随着《Conan Exiles》的性质和开发周期的变化,我们逐渐得出结论:大量时间投入了为每个章节设计引人入胜的新战斗通行证,但是用于其他几个开发领域效果更好。这里面包括章节内容本身,现在还包括章节中的更新,以及各种活动和奖励。
简而言之,之前开发战斗通行证的部分工作如今会体现在免费内容更新和奖励中。
总结与下一个时代
简单总结:
- 未来大约每六个月发布一次章节更新。
- 在每个章节中会发布较小的内容更新。
- 下一个章节没有战斗通行证。我们会把精力集中于章节更新以及期间较小的内容更新,集市会继续提供新物品和套装。当前的战斗通行证会一直有效,直到下一个时代开始。
我们制作下一个时代的工作非常顺利,不过还没确定发布时间,我们很渴望在八月跟大家分享更多信息。我们会带来一些全新的主要功能,它们在这之后的更新中还有很大的拓展潜力,并能与在Age of War中添加的现有功能很好地整合,使这个游戏世界更有生命力和凝聚力。
我们很乐意听听各位玩家对下一个时代的名称及内容的想法。请在评论中告诉我们!
Features
- On taking fatal damage, followers (excluding golems) will no longer immediately die! They will instead fall to the ground and begin to bleed out. Their health bar will turn gray and deplete over time.
- Interacting with allied followers that are bleeding out will perform a rallying cry that revives them and allows them to return to the battle. If you do not revive them before they bleed out, the follower will die.
- Pressing interact will cause revived followers to return to their previous behavior
- Holding interact will cause revived followers to follow you when they are revived
- If you take damage while performing a rallying cry, the action is interrupted and must be started again.
- Rallying cries will revive all followers in a 15 meter radius around the revive target
- Damage taken while bleeding out will reduce the remaining bleed out Health
- Each time a follower begins bleeding out they will accrue a “Strike”
- If a follower has three strikes, they will die the next time their health is depleted.
- Strikes expire simultaneously after 15 minutes
- Expiration time is refreshed to the maximum duration when strikes are applied
- Functionality can be enabled and disabled through server settings.
