#15 Roaming Elite Units & New Cyber Gear

[Levin]

Dear rangers,

We hope you had a good start to the new year, because we're bringing a few new things into play that are sure to cause a stir from Mokon Woods to Maujak Mountains, at the very least. We are planning to bring the changes below to the game very soon!

Free-Roaming Elite Cyber Groups

A new threat is emerging! Out of nowhere, strong enemy cyber units have arrived in large numbers and are terrorizing the area. While they do band together in groups, they move unpredictably across the entire map – no one seems safe! Those who dare to fight such menacing opponents surely know what they are doing… and maybe the rewards outweigh the risks?

From Mokon Woods onwards, all maps now feature very strong “elite” groups of free-roaming enemy units:

• A single elite group headed by a Giant Cyber Dinosaur who is accompanied by minions.
• One or more elite groups of cyber bandits, each headed by a Bandit Leader.
• Elite groups will move across the entire map they appear on, following a random path that they choose by themselves.
• A new elite group will spawn 3 hours after both the leader unit and all its minions of an existing elite group have been defeated.
• Orphaned minion units will try to follow a new leader, and form a new group by themselves if there is no suitable leader left.
• Elite groups are max level regardless of the zone they appear in, and they present quite a challenge. Better watch out if you are out on your own!

Elite Group Lure Kits Available For Purchase

You and your clan are in need of a challenge? Just spawn your own elite cyber groups through a new kind of single-use item now available at Silver Lily’s Emporium!

• Lure kits can be deployed in any PvP-enabled zone, regardless of its level range. Once placed on the ground, they will attract an elite group of cyber units, just like the ones that are now found roaming across most of the game.
• Requirement for purchase: Reach the Governor’s office once.
• Three versions available: Attract carnivorous or herbivorous Giant Cyber Dinos, or a group of Cyber Bandits.

All-New Cyber Gear Unlocks Greater Potential

The new Cyber Sheriff outfit is about much more than just looks! As seasoned sheriffs, you know how important it is for rangers and their dinosaurs to work well together. The circuitry woven into the fabric of the new outfit allows the wearer to interface with their cyber dinosaur on an extended level, unlocking control over the Cynergy Core which powers their cyber exoskeleton.

Cyber Sheriff Outfit Added to Silver Lily’s Emporium

• Consists of 5 pieces: Hat, Mask, Jacket, Trousers and Saddle.
• Individual pieces need to be unlocked before they can be purchased.
• Requirements: See flow chart (we will fill you in on the exact numbers denoted with “x” later).
• Colors available at launch are still to be determined.

Upgrade Your Cyber Dinos With Cynergy Cores!

• Need to be unlocked for purchase once by collecting a full set of Cyber Sheriff clothing (outfit pieces can be of different colors).
• Can only be used in Cyber dinosaurs.
• Cynergy Cores are fashionable items, adding more attribute and fame points to your build.
• Install to "Cynergy Core" slot displayed for Cyber dinosaurs in the profile window.
• Once installed, the color of Cyber dinosaurs' "glowing ring lights" changes according to the core's color.
• Colors available at launch are still to be determined.

P.S.: We are also working on addressing issues with other aspects of the game, such as the attacker/defender buffs in site combat, as well as the progression of dinosaur evolution levels. We will keep you updated!

Drop us your questions and feedback here

My god, another update oriented only for the sheriffs? Seriously? No improvements on the map? Fixing them? What’s happening with the levels? My dinosaur's progression sucks and it still hasn't been fixed. Why is it that when the community asks for something, you guys make it worse? There are thousands of great ideas for the game; some crazy guy even modeled two dinosaurs and another one created an incredible website about the game, yet you only upload clothes and a visual upgrade for this boring PvP?

Do you actually listen to us or do you just turn a blind eye to the sad reality of the game? It’s no news that the game is dying bit by bit, and no matter what you tell me, that’s the reality. Compared to previous years, the game is dying slowly and it’s not because of the graphics, but because of your abysmal lack of content compared to other MMORPGs, you know? At least say that you can’t do it instead of staying silent and leaving us with the hope that the game is going to improve... I'll also leave the coolest ideas I found (even though I know there are thousands more, but it would take me like 10 hours to paste them all)

If you really listen to us (as you claim), look at every great idea in the forum—how to fix it and how to manage it so that there are more active people and the game can be what it used to be. Not like now, where it's just a monopoly of multi-accounts standing AFK at the portals farming

 

[- Venimeuse -]

Bad idea, it will only limit the enemy players in the alliance because they will be killed while they are there.

it won't kill enemy only, also allies, it's just way for low level to hunt peacfully without get disturb by Cyber Bosses

 

[XAragornX]

What means for non-sherrif? It is not worth then lol updates are made for end game not for make X alts with shit and sell for more as some ppl would do it. It should be stay on sherrif status

 

[XAragornX]

Well, now I want to make a complaint. Why do you keep updating things for Sheriff players? I mean, think about new players and how to reach them; 90% of new players quit this because leveling up is horribly boring, and instead of fixing this, you only focus on keeping the Sheriffs active

Who care for non-sherrifs ppl? It is end game mechanic for what then would be sherrif rank since rex are free? They replace some stuffs now with rex simple deal if you dont have sherrif in "your active" sv cause of waiting 3y who cares? It is for old sherrifs finally worth and you have for what play. Some my friends dont want even sherrif because? Worthless just rank

 

[XAragornX]

And dont tell me old sherrifs wont get silver crowns cause it is began lot of time to do elections and save fame silver crowns

 

[Luka Patajac]

it won't kill enemy only, also allies, it's just way for low level to hunt peacfully without get disturb by Cyber Bosses

its suppose to mean allies will kill enemies keeping bosses for themselves as part of whole PvP need be removed thingy

Some my friends dont want even sherrif because? Worthless just rank

Let me make it easier for you: There are no new players because they get bored fast—there are no enemies. No enemies means free Sheriffs. Free Sheriffs means farming just to get the Cyber. Once you have the Cyber, there are no players left to show it off to: Boredom

Besides, you mentioned old Sheriffs... man, the average Sheriff gets bored once they’ve obtained everything. This update won't be any different. You get everything, you get bored, and you leave until the next update. There’s no replayability.

Don't forget my PVE suggestion, we need a less boring hunting, THAT WILL MAKE PLAYERS STAY IN THE GAME, no matter their ranger level WE NEED DAILY BOUNTIES

You guys are spoiled, now you want to get sheriff quickly or have the advantages of sheriff without even having the position. So what are the positions for? Nowadays it's 10x easier to get any position on any server, I don't know, I think the new players are spoiled.

First get sheriff, then think about things that only sheriffs can have. You literally want to have the advantages of the position without having it, honestly this is frustrating for most veteran players. Isn't it enough that we have to run for election again to unlock Rex Cyber, people with Rex being marshal or assistant deputy, now we have to see people with governor having the same benefits as us who obtained the position after so much effort? You talk about the difficulty, but nowadays there's a 2x fame bonus to get elected for new rangers, there are mines to farm fame, there are attacker bonuses that give a great advantage in stealing portals, safe zones, etc. Honestly, this sounds like a childish tantrum you're throwing regarding what the sheriffs might have.

This new update is literally for less than 10% of players, and not all players have sheriffs.

It's not bad that sheriffs have post-endgame content, but man, the developers are releasing an update that appears to be for the entire audience, but it's not. That's what's disappointing. As I said recently, at the very least, cyber lights should be the standard loot from cyber bosses, because otherwise, it doesn't make sense or it's not worth spending these new bait items, since in the end you'll just be the one causing damage so that the sheriffs can get their items and not yours.

so enemy can't farm ores too? enemy can farm ores in the back of allies, the first find, first served and enemy can spawn cyber bosses in gf, ally will mostly focus on mw to maujak

thank you ^^

 

[OrionZG]

An enemy can farm minerals well with protection because no one attacks them, but if they had protection and couldn't do the cyber bosses, it would only limit them and be dangerous for that type of player. Regardless of location, alliance clans attack just for fun or because they can attack enemy clans.

What I originally meant was that, ideally, there should be separate protection against cyber bosses. Obviously, not everyone will use it for various reasons, but it's so that lower levels don't have difficulty leveling up.

 

[XAragornX]

Remind me tho. When was easier to get sherrif now or before? What was before for an SHERRIF? MONEY rn you dont need even money for gain sherrif, people keep just blame devs yapping how they are bad dont do updates. They do update ppl still blame them to give free for all people why not! Then i asking for what you are run for sherrif stuff? For rank and cyber rex? Which is useless actually? Ah i forget only "active" servers blame devs which dont have sherrif yet. Yes bro you dont need be on alliance to win sherrif they made it possible dont worry you guys can blame ownself if cant get sherrif yet. There shouldnt be free stuffs for no sherrif ppl beacause you want it. They supposed make something to make sherrifs back not an people who are making x accounts in x servers and yap about "no sherrif acess"

did you tried to collect ores with PVP Protection?, you can't collect ores with PVP protection

They quiting because community of ds are toxic. Not because of farm. Fair lvls 55 are need lot exp but for it need look for rebuild quests not blame DEVS FOR EVERYTHING because some ppl want free stuffs without work

 

[XAragornX]

And to remins you for old sherrif for ONLY SHERRIF in "dead server" via old update you need 200k points supplies if you are smart enought you can see how much money for "rank" which rn they made rex free and sherrif stuff for nothing rn be sherrif is 0 benefits

 

[XAragornX]

Ah and to say to you I'm old sherrif old kos of being as 4y since 2y on alliance and dont tell me old sherrifs got nothing to do i didnt even done w cybers yet

 

[Xx EL LOBO xX]

What I originally meant was that, ideally, there should be separate protection against cyber bosses. Obviously, not everyone will use it for various reasons, but it's so that lower levels don't have difficulty leveling up.

just make it so they are passive unless they are attacked. once a player attacks them theyll target that player

No

Sorry for my poor translation, it was the other way around haha.

What kind of ideas do they have for the progression of dinosaurs?

 

[jeff33]

Perfect!

 

[Ghazt]

no one is saying sheriffs deserve less content, we are saying that >>this update especifically<< is a great opportunity for new, repeatable content for EVERYONE with just a few tweaks. after this, we can start to talk about the greatly needed sheriff, combat, map, events and progression reworks. lets just go one thing at a time and this time; make this update for maxed and non maxed players alike.

 

[Vojislava]

1. Low level players need to run and hide when they see the group approaching. You can as well hide behind buildings/walls (where your dino can not walk on) and then they dont see you. It will certainly makes the map more dangerous but also more dynamic

ah yes the national sport of screwing new/low level players over continues, just as it should.
heavy is the hand that cranks the screws after all

wouldn't it be better to make the mecha units either neutral towards everyone or at least neutral to people who are below ceratin level? making them fully neutral would also eliminate a situation where they would be used to block sites or some chokepoints on the maps btw.

just don't give new players, who are rare and barely exists nowadays, another reason to log off and never come back, making the map "more dangerous and dynamic" =/= FUN for people who will get annihilated by such creatures within seconds. it is not fun to have some mechanical abomination block your hunting area for approximately 30minutes.

 

[slejd2001]

Wouldn't this affect the gameplay of new players in the game who have no idea of anything? We already don't see newcomers that much anymore but if a new player is trying to progress and these mobs might bully them they'll just lose their motivation faster than they already do

I think its good for these cyber monsters to appear frommw and up since lower lvl players would see high lvl players and would be aware that there is actually an activity in the server. Saying this since I often see, usually low lvl, players saying that game is dead, but actually server isnt just that active or most of online people hang out in maujak

 

[slejd2001]

2 - The new cyber sheriff set should not be unlocked through achievements. Once you become a sheriff, it should be available in the silver crown shop, just like the other sets.


3 - The module to change the color of cyber dinosaurs should be sold in a new shop in Dinoville for gold coins, without requiring any achievements. After all, sheriffs are not the only ones who own cyber dinosaurs.

2 - (agree)
3 - As I understand it changes not only color, but also gives additional attribute

 

[slejd2001]

An enemy can farm minerals well with protection because no one attacks them, but if they had protection and couldn't do the cyber bosses, it would only limit them and be dangerous for that type of player.

PVE protection?

 

[Czarna]

Second, don't make them be only for achievements. make them drop rewards, like high quality clothes (q5 for example) violent boosters, and DDS. Maybe this seems like too much but players can die a lot to the minions (speaking of which please regulate their spawn, 3 or 4 for each monster is fine) and this makes them much more interesting units to kill

And another concern is that i think the new cynergy cores should be an option rather than an extra item.. Having this as an item only adds more load to the amount of clothes set people have. once you unlock cynergy cores you unlock all their colors and can change them as you want

After taking some time to think about this idea, I agree that these elite bandit groups should provide better rewards than the regular mobs found on the maps. This would give players a real incentive to continue fighting them, even after unlocking the Cynergy Core. Otherwise, there is a risk that, in a few years, newcomers to the server may never be able to unlock the Cynergy Core, since the number of players interested in fighting these mobs might dwindle significantly.

Purchasing or unlocking a single Cynergy Core whose color can be changed to suit each player’s needs is also a good idea. As it is currently presented, this item would take a very long time to unlock, making it much harder to obtain the specific color you want - especially if colors rotate in a similar way to sheriff clothing. An alternative solution would be to make the rotations much faster and ensure that older colors keep returning to the shop frequently.

So you rather spend years of blocking people in elections for god knows how many silver crowns?

Wtf even is blocking election? You apply for an office, you win, you win. You lose, just to bad. That's the competitiveness of the game. You collect more Fame and try for that office again.

Idk man, I just don't like the idea that you again have to get fame for another bunch of silver crowns and block other people that need it more just so you can do yet another boring quest for something actually good

I get it that you are a leader of a clan and give yourself infinite amount of fame but there are people that need it just to get at least a dumb rex. I just think this stuff shouldn't be anything exclusive as the cyber rex. It is just an accessory, that's it. It is easy to make it for silver crowns because the developers don't spend the time farming the fame and joining elections.

Sherrif stuff are for sherrifs thats what you need get something. Rex is already free without Sherrif so why sherrif set should be for all? It is special item

All these comments about this update being exclusively for Sheriff is bullshit.

The previous Dev Shack was geared towards player that couldn't reach the sheriff office for Rex. It basically made the rex non exclusive to the Sheriff office. Now when you reach the top office, REX isn't the main thing anymore. It's cosmetic.

So this update is much needed to give a continuity to the game, to keep the Sheriff player engage. I am sheriff, I got nothing to grind for now. I already beat the game and achievements.


Some feedback are simply players who wants everything on a silver plate without grinding. You're suggesting for easier easier challenges.

Also, what's even the point of the Sheriff office if I have the same item as a player with non-Sheriff office? That literally ruin the value of the Sheriff.
