In order to better help Wanderers understand the subsequent version development plan, we will share it through the R&D terminal communication column before each new version is launched. At the same time, we will also present various optimization and adjustment information to everyone through this column.
sound system
1. Added tuner synthesis function
In order to optimize the later experience of low-quality tuners being stored in the backpack, we will add a tuner synthesis function after the 1.1 update. Drifters can consume a certain number of intermediate/advanced tuners in the [Synthesis Station] to synthesize higher quality tuners.
2. Absorb and unlock new types of sound skeletons, and gain additional [Synesthesia Experience]
In order to help novice drifters experience the subsequent gameplay and content more quickly, after the 1.1 version update, additional synaesthesia experience will be gained when absorbing and unlocking new types of sonic skeletons.
At the same time, we will calculate the corresponding [Synesthesia Experience] based on the number of sonic skeleton types that have been unlocked during the public beta version of Drifter. And after the 1.1 version update, this part of [Synesthesia Experience] will be distributed through in-game emails. Please check your emails and collect them in time.
3. Improve the voice quality of [Sora Guide - Activity Reward]
In response to the feedback from drifters that "in the [Sola Guide - Activity] mission, the quality of the sound skeleton rewards obtained is relatively random", which affects the active mission reward experience. We have removed the COST1 quality from the activity reward, and increased the quality range of random voice props to COST3~COST4.
After the 1.1 version update, drifters who reach 100 activity levels by completing the [Sola Guide - Activity Level] mission can randomly receive COST3 or COST4 quality voice skeleton rewards.
4. Increase the upper limit of data dock level opening
After the 1.1 version update, the upper limit of the open level of the data dock will be adjusted to level 21. After reaching level 21, there is a 100% probability of absorbing 5-star sound skeletons.
5. Newly added regional characteristics of voice transformation and fun gameplay
In some areas of "Chengxiao Mountain", there are interesting ways to play the game. The wanderer can transform into a sound skeleton [Ding Dong Dong] and participate in the exploration of the "Chengxiao Mountain" area. More sound system gameplay will also be available to the drifters in subsequent versions.
6. Other implementation optimization content
1. Cancel the Silent Zone settlement animation: After completing the Silent Zone challenge and receiving the rewards, the rewards will be settled directly.
2. Reduce the cost of shell coins required to develop a voice skeleton: Reduce the number of shell coins consumed during the development process of a voice skeleton.
3. Simplify the gameplay of [Wandering Butterfly] Sound Corpse: The flight speed is reduced, the challenge time of the gameplay is extended, and the fault tolerance of the gameplay is further improved.
Activities and other outputs
1. Open the new content "Dream-Burning Black Flame" in <Descent into Wonderland>, and increase the event rewards
During version 1.1, we will launch the new content "Dream-Burning Black Flame" of the "Descent into Wonderland" event. This "Descent into Wonderland" event will also open a new mechanism [Token] [Fierce Battle Level] There are also [Dream Adjusting Memes] available for challenge, and the reward for this activity will be increased to 1,000 Star Voices.
2. Exclusive activities for exploring new areas: "Chengxiao Mountain" regional series of activities
In order to better help everyone experience the new area of "Chengxiao Mountain", we have prepared an exclusive series of "Chengxiao Mountain" area activities for drifters: "Original Records of Xiaoshan" area exploration activity and "Standing Shadow of Xiaoshan" photo collection activity . Complete the "Chengxiao Mountain" regional series of activities to receive a total of 800 star sounds, special resonance accelerants, special secret sound tubes and other rich rewards.
3. Increase the number of items that can be exchanged for the version of [Sea Market Exchange-Residual Coral] summoned items in the store
After the 1.1 version update, the purchase limit for the [Sea Market Exchange-Residual Coral] shop summon props [Floating Gold Ripple], [Casting Tide Ripple] and [Voice Summoning Vortex] version has been increased from 6 to 7.
4. Other version event notices
In addition to the above-mentioned optimization adjustments, version 1.1 will also open the "Light Picking Gift" seven-day sign-in event, "Woo Project" limited-time commission event, "Imitation Sound Strategy" limited-time combat event, and "Echo Yingyu" development materials will be doubled for a limited time. Activities, <Sound String Cleansing> limited-time double activity of sonic skeleton materials, etc.
Map exploration system
1. Added a layered map of the "Chengxiao Mountain" area
The terrain of the newly added plot "Chengxiao Mountain" in version 1.1 is relatively complex. In order to help wanderers better explore this area, we have implemented the [Layered Map] function in the "Chengxiao Mountain" area. Wanderers can switch levels in the map to get more accurate exploration guidance.
Since the development of global hierarchical maps takes a certain amount of time, we will implement the hierarchical map function of the "Isshu" area in subsequent versions.
2. New regional task completion progress
After the 1.1 version update, you can check the completion status of the current area's "Dangerous Mission" in [Map - Exploration].
3. Expand the detection range of [Qizang Detector]
In order to better help everyone find nearby undiscovered treasure chests on the map, after the 1.1 version update, we will increase the detection range of the [Curious Treasure Detector]. Wanderers can use the [Exploration Module] and place the [Tibetan Detector] to explore.
Task and illustration system
1. Added the function of resonance map book
After the update to version 1.1, wanderers can check the unlocked resonaters and the unlocking time in the [Illustrated Book of All Things·Interlaced Stars] module.
2. New plot text illustration function
After the 1.1 version update, wanderers can view the completed plot texts of [Tide Mission] and [Companion Star Mission] in the [Illustrated Book of All Things·Photographs of the Past] module to review the plot.
3. Lower the activation levels of some "Tide Missions"
In order to help novice drifters experience the subsequent gameplay and content more quickly, after the 1.1 version update, we have lowered the open levels of some "Tide Missions":
The opening conditions for Act 4 of Chapter 1 of "Tidal Quest"·Crying of Blades in the Courtyard have been lowered from synesthesia level 14 to synesthesia level 11; Acts 5 and 6 of "Tidal Quest" Chapter 1 have been adjusted accordingly. Open after the chapter task is completed.
4. Increase the type and quantity of [Sora Guide-Activity Task]
In response to the problem reported by drifters that "there are few ways to obtain [Sola Guide - Activity]", after the 1.1 version update, we will increase the types and number of daily activity tasks. We hope that the above adjustments can better optimize the activity related tasks experience.
Other experience optimization
1. Added new combat style tags
After the 1.1 version update, we will add a [Combat Style Tag] filtering classification for the combat mechanisms of different resonaters, hoping to help Drifters better understand the core combat styles corresponding to each character.
2. Chat system display iteration
In order to improve the usability of the chat system during the actual game, after the 1.1 version update, the chat system will be adjusted to half-screen display.
3. Controller mode interaction optimization
1. Added new handle mode viewing angle operation adjustment settings. In [Settings-Control], you can adjust the operation flip of horizontal and vertical viewing angles.
2. Modify the controller mode shortcut key and change [Open Chat] to [Open Map].
3. Open the key changing function of some Sony PlayStation series controllers, which is consistent with the key changing range supported by the current Xbox series controllers.
