“Real Different World” Development Team is well known on the forums for their diligent bug fixes, especially after the number of players participating in testing increased and the storyline progressed to encompass the entire region of Transylvania, Brother Fa has been releasing update announcements almost every week.

With the appearance and active involvement of Assistant Xiao Cui on the forums, occasionally she also takes charge of the updates.

Most of the time, the content of the update announcements involves minor tweaks and patches to various gameplay elements, and they sometimes summarize the development of the Crimson Castle and Transylvania.

This leads many veteran players to jokingly call the weekly update announcements a “work report” from the developer team to the “shareholders” of Alpha Company, the testers.

However, for players who are adept at summarizing their thoughts, are observant, and have keen insights, it’s not difficult for them to realize that the development team has actually been using update announcements and version updates as a subtle way to guide and adjust the players’ activities in the game.

Today’s announcement is a prime example of this.

[Real Different World’s 43rd online update announcement:

This online update mainly targets some ‘disharmonious elements’ that emerged during the “Hundred Days Major Construction” event, making appropriate modifications due to the prevailing trend of slave hunting in Transylvania, a concern for the Crimson Regent, Miss Milian, and her administrative team regarding the surrounding situation.

She and her team unanimously determined that now was not a good time to provoke their “bad neighbors”, so they urgently contacted the development team to patch the current situation.

Awesome!

My little players!

I’ve been testing for so long, and this is the first time I’ve seen players’ overly hardcore spontaneous actions force the development team to modify gameplay mechanics; you guys are really something.

Here are the detailed contents of this update:

1.

To draw players’ attention back to Transylvanian internal politics and increase the happiness of the territory’s residents, the flustered Sir Morphy and his loyal servant Maxim have decided to hold the “Transylvanian Boxing Championship” for one month at the fighting clubs.

Although it’s called a boxing championship, there isn’t just boxing; the Blood Rat Gang, under the governor’s orders, has already prepared competition venues in the sewers suitable for different events.

Shooting, throwing, weightlifting, and even blind fighting events are confirmed to be included.

The intention of this activity is to foster joy among the citizens, so the selection of participants for the boxing championship includes all citizens of Transylvania who are bored to death and looking to find some fun.

Hence, during this event, every little player who joins the championship has a certain chance of seeing familiar faces amongst their opponents.

This includes, but is not limited to, Commander Maxim, Commander Adel, Baron Kudell, and a series of main combat-type NPCs that have appeared in the storyline so far.

When you encounter them, you’ll trigger a series of entertaining Easter Eggs, and if you happen to be one in a hundred thousand who can defeat these NPCs, you will receive unique rewards from them.

Also, don’t forget that “Sir Morphy’s Challenge Letter” continuous quest can also be obtained during this event.

I need to remind you testers that adding this event online isn’t just the developers’ coders trying to cover up their mistakes.

It also has strong relevance to the storyline!

Cunning Beilao has maliciously added many shameless prisoners and violent individuals to the captives they’re sending back to Transylvania.

These pros at fighting with fists hope to return to their old ways in Transylvanian, but our brave little players will show them that when it comes to talking with fists, they back down to no challenger.

During the event, “Nordtof Vanguard Thug” NPCs will be randomly refreshed.

Each one defeated grants +1 construction point.

Achieving a top three position in any single event grants +10 construction points.

Winning a championship in any single event grants +50 construction points and a time-limited rare title “Transylvanian Boxing Champion”.

2.

Rules have been implemented restricting the gameplay of the Slave Hunting Team:

The Crimson Castle Administrative Office is not keen to see the current foreign diplomatic security situation fluctuate, so starting from the effectiveness of the online update, refugees from East Prussia and the Kafuhoka region will no longer earn construction points for players.

The benefits for refugees found through legitimate channels (such as with the support of the Batasin Business Association, or the evangelistic actions of the Avalon Church) remain unchanged.

3.

A new refugee examination channel, “Call of the Highlanders,” has been added:

The mountain tribes of the Ancestor Woods, situated at the very northern end of the Westerly Territory, have just sworn allegiance to the Governor of Transylvania, and the Count Cico, Little Sheron who is in charge of overseeing them, has been tasked with a special mission.

Due to the ambiguous historical positioning of the Highlanders in territorial divisions between Transylvania and the surrounding areas, His Excellency the Governor hopes to use their internal communications to beckon Highlanders from the Saxon Region to join Transylvania with enthusiasm.

Players who are willing to help Highlanders persecuted by the Golden Flower Kingdom enter civilized land can head to Ancestor Woods to seek out the Mountain Elder and get involved in this action.

Highlanders from the Saxon Region acquired through this channel enjoy the same construction point benefits as refugees.

Heads up!

The journey from Ancestor Woodland to the savage woodlands of the Saxon Region is full of dangers; even with local Highlanders to guide you, the various dangerous wild beasts and treacherous terrain you’ll encounter on the way, as well as the Golden Flower Kingdom’s mountain patrols that might ambush you at any moment, are all factors to consider.
