This night took place the Special Live Letter E3 where Naoki Yoshida, completely under the influence of jet lag, first played the game of questions and answers before presenting us the Deep Dungeon: Palace Of The Dead.
Q&R on 3.3
- On popular servers, the new lands of residential areas are taken by storm, depriving people who weren't there when the servers reopened from a chance to buy land.
The priority would be to add land for free companies, but Yoshi also wants to satisfy players who are alone.
3.4 will see the arrival of apartments, which should already unblock the situation a little. They will see to add land, but they have to analyze the situation on the server side.
Another problem: the people who buy the land to sell it at a high price. It is unacceptable for the team. You can denounce these people to the CM, sanctions can be taken, the land confiscated and put back on sale. We often see these announcements via the team finder. - Arsenal will be enlarged in the next expansion, "and by a lot"!
- La mount obtained via mentor roulette takes a long time: 2 mentor roulettes to complete. They do not intend to reduce the number of casters. It has been suggested that it be obtained through Honors, but it may favor the tanks and healers that receive them most often.
- Cité de Mhach : too hard for some, very good for others, opinions are divided! Yoshida talks about it: “Void Ark was too easy, so people got used to it and find Mhach too difficult. There are a few things that are a little too difficult about Mhach. »The difficulty is identical to La Tour de Cristal where communication is necessary.
A hard mode is suggested: “Really, you want some? Ok maybe, we'll talk to the team about it. " - The next expansion will include a lot of quests, to prevent players from having to farm dungeons repeatedly to level up and players, who prefer to earn XP solo or follow stories, also find their account there.
- Being able to stack treasure cards: knowing that you can get one every 18 p.m., Yoshi doesn't really see the point, even if they understand why. It's going to take time on the development side to do that, it's a big change to make. They will study the request.
- The team is studying the addition of an icon indicating RP players.
- A roulette raid is in high demand, it is under discussion.
- Increased the maximum number of furniture in houses under development.
- A “play” system for free company events has been suggested: the team will think about it.
- Following the last patch and the very good feedback from players on the achievement and pace of the epic, Yoshi confirms that in the future, he will avoid as much as possible to integrate “stopgap” quests (will talk to thing and bring me a hamburger with a small fries) in the epic.
- They think about empowering frames, as some already have (Magitek for example). It takes a long time to do so they will only deal with one at a time.
- Gold Saucer : make sure that a week promotes such activity with a bonus of PGS. For example, a chocobo race week, something else the following week. The producer thinks the idea is good and needs to be studied.
- Un / changepose for/sleep : this suggestion has dragged on for a long time. It's a lot of work for the team, but it should be implemented in 3.3.5.
- We will finally be able to send a report on a player by right clicking! The form will also be improved. It's already live on Dragon Quest X and it's working fine. This system allows an RMT to be sent to jail if it is postponed many times. The investigation is then carried out by the GMs who will take care of banning the account.
- Sleipnir, the mount available in the Mog Kiosk should learn to fly. It's in high demand and the team will do it.
Deep Dungeon - Palace of the Dead
This very special new instance will be added to 3.35.
Yoshida recalls that to access it you will have to be 17 and have unlocked and performed Tam-Tara. It is advisable to have reached the epic of 2.4 in order to fully appreciate the history of this dungeon. It's time to find out on video!
The interface is unusual!
Yoshida explains: GEAR determines your strength in the dungeon, it is the only equipment used in it. They can only be upgraded through the Deep Dungeon.
We see a SAVE Slot 1 at level21, we can have up to 6 saves simultaneously. Talk to the NPC and the special "Deep Dungeon" mission tool will take over.
Let's go in!
These shiny weapons are therefore the specific equipment of the dungeon. Equipment synchronization is done in relation to the level of the dungeon. You can see object locations on the second image, it's an inventory shared between team members.
The map at the top right is randomly generated.
When you enter, everyone starts at level 1. You will level up and collect your actions as you progress through the dungeon.
Don't worry too much about having a balanced group. You can go there all in DPS, just remember to get some potions.
Chests allow you to obtain items or XP for your equipment. Sometimes it's also a trap!
Second chest: an item used to display the map of the floor. Some also allow you to see the traps.
There is a portal to access the next floor, it activates when the whole team enters the circle.
We arrive at the next floor where the boss is waiting. There is one every ten floors.
Once the boss is defeated, you can save your progress. If you die, you will return to the last save point. With victory in your pocket, you will have the choice between saving and continuing.
Some penalties can hit your team when they arrive on a new floor!
By touching the lamp that you see in the image below, you can revive your fallen teammates.
Potions allow you to transform into a monster and attack as well. The manticore is powerful.
The video ends with the mission failure and the very fleeting appearance of a mysterious stranger!
There will be 60 floors available, you can enter the instance at any time, redo whatever you want, there are no limitations like with raids. By speaking to the NPC with your full weapon, you will be able to obtain the weapon of your choice for outdoor. You don't need to dungeon with whatever job you want the weapon to be. Very practical.
Yoshida talks about 200 floors for the sequel. But it's going to take you a long time!
The first 40 levels will not be penalizing for those who are not 60.
For example, the “mission tool” dedicated to the dungeon NPC will bring together all players who are at level 20, there is no role restriction. It is not the classic mission tool that is used here.
