Tip from the development team!

The new races added in this update all have different power inheritances. After players choose a new race template, they can complete the power enlightenment of their respective races and obtain special career advancements through contact with the corresponding NPC.

However, it should be noted that due to the current progress of the game, the route from Transia to other areas of the mainland is still closed until the end of Chapter 2 of the main mission of Transia: Tide of Darkness.

Although players can theoretically leave Transia and enter new maps through various exploration methods, considering that all players have been recruited as soldiers of Transia, the development team does not recommend that players risk becoming "deserters" risk, leaving behind the course of the war and their responsibilities to Transia to venture into other areas.

At the end of Chapter 2 of the main mission, the development team will add a new side mission to guide players away from Transia and the Dark Mountains, and to different areas of the continent to start the next stage of your legendary story.

The above are the main contents of this version update.

However, this document does not include some details about the game content. Players are asked to explore it on their own after it goes online and reap the surprises specially reserved by the development team.

Ps:

The little thing about the "Closed Beta Gift Pack" has been prepared. Let's unlock this little surprise after logging into the game tomorrow.

"Real World" development team. 】

"Wow, my eyes are dazzled! So many new races are launched at once, it's like the Chinese New Year! The development team's terrifying sincerity really scares me. Is this the true strength of Alpha Company?

I am scared to death! "

This is the most favorable comment under the forum post, coming from Xiaowei Ming, a loyal fan of this game, but this is indeed the common thought of all players who saw this document.

Are you planning on releasing so many new races at once?

Hey, the game content you have updated this time has almost caught up with several new games. Is there any business like this? This makes it difficult for friends and developers who have to develop a DLC for several years to survive. Do you understand this is malicious competition?

Where is Wang Fa? Where are the rules? Where is the decency? Most importantly, where is the gaming helmet?

"The server is now open! The server is now open for one person's blood book! There are only the last 23 hours. Ah, I feel like there are ants crawling on my body. I can't stand it. The server is now open!"

Cheche, who had been a "warrior" offline for a while, was the first to cry out, and then all the repeaters reread it in unison to save face. In the end, the replies below the entire post became a unified sentence structure.

Tris looked at this and shook her head repeatedly. She turned to Murphy and said:

"How about we charge? Maybe if we let them pay to play, we can curb these guys' overly impulsive and scary devotion to the land of Transia."

"Charge? If you dare to charge them, you dare to charge them. A rich woman like Xiao Weiming will probably be very happy."

The Governor sighed, shook his head and said:

"And there are no paid projects to develop anymore. Is it possible that we really have to give them skins and so on? Hey, it doesn't seem to be possible? I also planned to prepare a consumable gift package for closed beta players, but now think about it, it's a waste of that What's the money for?

How about a lucky draw?

It looks great just by randomly opening the skins. At most, I just need to prepare a few more legendary skins. I have also been quietly designing them during this time. Well, that’s it! "

Ps:

There will be an update tomorrow from the leader. Brothers, please vote if you have a monthly vote. It’s a new year and a new atmosphere.
