A few days ago, I finally took some time to do something that has been brewing for a long time - raising the level of the duel field to Terra Stone, which is also commonly known as the PK level.
During this period, in addition to the commonly used Street Fighter and Battle Mage, I found that using other unskilled sub-professions is basically giving away points. Although I continued to play intermittently during this period, I actually spent more energy on painting pictures.
After all, the older uncle couldn't keep up with his hand speed, so he had to rely on his experience to fight.
As for why I suddenly went to level up, I actually had the idea very early on to write an article about the development history of the duel field. Although I know with my feet that there is not much reading,
After all, in COLG, PKC is already a product of a niche crowd.
Season 1
Regarding the past and present of the DNF duel arena, not to mention that it has become a legend in the industry, this unique duel experience is unmatched by other games on the market.
But compared to other game PK systems, which are different from the inspirational experience of counterattacking from the bottom to the top, DNF's PK field is more like the hero's twilight, and to some extent its script is more like Logan in Wolverine 3 - even if Even death must be as magnificent as autumn leaves.
Compared with other mainstream MMOs on the market before, DNF's PK system is extremely in-depth, difficult to get started, and the level of dissuasion for newcomers is even more outrageous.
It can be said that the balance of the duel field in the first season is basically non-existent. In the face of the overwhelming professional strength (Golden Body, Sword Soul, Tactics, Street Fighter, etc.), it can be said to be a battle of gods.
But it laid a solid foundation for the entire PK system.
The PVP equipment products are also designed to make PVP stronger.
It is already an attack speed PK set in the later version of version 60, and the title of the first set of White Tiger Soul gift pack is PK artifact.
Season 2
There is not much difference between the second season and the first season.
The biggest change is that SP will be initialized for free in the duel arena, making adding points more arbitrary and easier to trial and error.
The settlement gifts of the first season are the strongest in history, including not only titles and pet rewards, but also a Wings of the Sky skin gift box that has never been reproduced in the later period.
Season 3
Starting from the third season, the duel arena adopts the replay system.
The replay will automatically record the information of the last 5 duels. You can use the replay system to save videos to your local PC.
At the end of the game, unsaved replay videos will be deleted.
Duel Arena correction prompt UI
Add a UI to display the opponent's status below the HP bar.
Stand: Standing state (yellow)
Aerial: floating state (blue
Down: Knocked down state (yellow)
Starting from the S2 season settlement, the combat power level of the duel field will begin, and the corresponding season title will be given out at the season settlement.
The gold-level special action halo has also begun to be settled in the S2 season.
Season 4
Starting from the fourth season, the ordinary duel arena has been renamed as the unparalleled duel arena, and a new system has been added in which you can obtain gold coins by consuming fatigue in the duel arena.
And equipment durability and colorless small crystal blocks will no longer be consumed during PK.
It is also from this season that the era of male law's resurgent hegemony comes to an end.
At the same time, it greatly corrects the performance of the equipment, although it is useless (the divine equipment is strong).
If there is no fashion or high-end fashion, the system will give you a set of free high-end fashion. Can only be used in the duel arena.
A new wind chime dojo and special characters for the duel arena have been added. Tears in the Bracket Age. This is really very convenient. For practicing new roles
By the way, the official website started to use pictures of COLG friends from this time on.
The highlight of the settlement in the third season is still the title and special action halo.
Season 5
In the fifth season, the three shota, wind magic, dimension, and blood magic that missed the strong period of immortality, as well as the monsters that still have bugs, officially entered the PKC.
At the same time, a new series of Zhen·Martial Soul equipment has been added.
I also saved 3 pieces, which are extremely difficult to make, and their performance is not as good as the ordinary set with increase, which is very useless.
Also starting from this season, the duel field has officially entered a period of decline, PVE has become stronger, and the equipment amplification performance brought by brushing maps into PKC is unparalleled.
The damage difference between divine equipment and ordinary equipment is almost the difference between N sets and 1 set.
The action halo is still calculated from the gold level.
Season 6
In the sixth season, the two sisters Paladin and Dragon Knight officially entered PKC.
There is a god in front of him, and the divine light jumps a tube of blood, and there is a dragon knight in the back that kicks the salon and bites him, making him unable to defend himself.
During the period of strength of these two professions, there was no grass growing wherever they went.
The decline of the duel field is irreversible. More importantly, it is already the sixth season and the duel field has not changed at all.
Where its future will go is beyond expectation.
Season 7
The duel arena has a "gentle", "Buddhist" and colorful social atmosphere. People will greet each other's family members when nothing happens, making the entire play experience full of "warmth" gestures.
There are countless "communications" caused by network problems. As a patient with severe social phobia, I try my best to avoid making noises if I can.
Starting from the seventh season,
The Colosseum mode that has been in service for several seasons has been officially deleted, the less popular Peak King Battle has been deleted, the exclusive characters in the duel arena have been deleted, and the fatigue value consumption system has been deleted.
A new fair duel field system has been added, and PKC has officially bid farewell to the era of magical costumes. Entering a fair duel, the character and equipment attributes will be corrected.
1. Fixed ability values will be given according to job changes, and the ability values for the same job change will be the same.
2. All PVE attributes of the equipment become invalid, and only the applicable crystal contract (attribute attack) remains. Different weapons retain the same range and characteristics.
3. The commercial dress attribute is invalid.
This is a real overhaul, with the dueling arena much closer to the system of previous events. At the same time, a new arena match will be added.
This fair duel field has eliminated most of the players with magical equipment in the past. There will no longer be a game where the opponent can be defeated in a second. At the same time, there are higher requirements for positioning, technology, and combos.
The previous RP combat power has been changed to rank.
And a single character has been changed to an account rank. (I don’t know why it needs to be changed like this)
Added daily/weekly tasks
Added new season tasks
Starting from this season, the action halo for gold level settlement has been added to the season missions, greatly increasing the difficulty.
The duel arena interface has been changed.
Two new large maps that are favorites of Loli series have been added.
Season 8
In the eighth season, we officially enter the widescreen era.
The field of vision is broader, resulting in the weakening of the oppression of remote professions.
Added burning bucket mode
In order to be able to confirm that the HP is activated in the Burning Battle mode at any time during the battle, the HP bar has been modified.
To put it simply, it is burst mode. After entering burst mode, the damage is higher and the speed is faster. The red-eye comeback ability in this mode is stronger. Under the guidance of the unique local judgment of the national server, I got version bonuses.
At the same time, the practice field was optimized,
The spectator mode is more enjoyable, and you can see the player’s skill cooldown time.
Rank optimization is more intuitive.
Conclusion
Throughout the 8 seasons, DNF's duel arena has gone through many revisions, and this version is a good node for newcomers who have not yet entered the pit. The strict screening of the level system can be used by everyone except for some low-level fish fryers. Find your own fun.
After all, for players who still yearn for the "old" horizontal fighting game called DNF duel field, there are really not many choices.
As for this year's Listening to Heart Project, I personally hope that someone can say a few words about the duel field.
Although this is no longer a profitable project, due to the poor matching environment, extremely poor network environment, the season rewards have become very troublesome and poor, and there is also professional unfairness.
Hope it can be solved more or less. After all, this is also the passion of our small group of people.
Finally, as a digression, Bai Yu won the championship in this year's professional league and played some very exciting games.
Fighting makes people passionate and passionate. I still remember one year when Bai Yu burst into tears because he failed to enter the finals. Those tears of youth were moving. This year, they won the professional league championship with their strength.
