Traverse: Voxel-Based MMORPG Allows Everyone to Own and Shape His Planet

0
0


Inspired by games like Landmark and No Man’s Sky, Traverse is a voxel-based sandbox MMORPG that allows every player to own at least one planet. You can shape, terrainform, build, and develop your home planet from scratch and then invite friends to visit and explore it. There are many tools to let you choose what theme you like to build your planet. Whether it will be sci-fi, western, fantasy, or contemporary -- it is completely up to you.
 

Planet is initially procedurally / randomly generated. Players can alter parameters that are used, at this point. A number of noise functions is available, such as Perlin and Voronoi.

After generating the planet, players can paint additional noise functions, to create valleys, or mountain ranges. Once again, height, elevation, and size of these features are just some of the parameters that can be altered, as you paint.



 
The game is more than building, and it has mobs and quests. Your planet’s environment — the altitude and slope of your terrain, proximity to ocean or lakes — will affect how mobs spawn. By fighting mobs you can level up. You can also create quests and assign them to NPCs. 
 
Traverse is scheduled to release in 2016. You can sign up at the forum to follow the game’s development and get notified when the alpha starts.

Blade and Soul Guide - How to Level Up Fast

0
0


As we all know, making gold is very important in a game, and blade & soul is without exception. When your character goes to high level, it needs more blade and soul gold to strengthen weapons or accessories. But how to level up fast in blade and soul ? Here, we share some tips with BNS players.

Like other MMOs, most of the progression comes from quests that you must complete. These quests can give you various rewards that is benefit for you, such as experience, ingredients and materials.

1. During Lv5 - Lv10, you need to finish all available quests. After finishing some quests, they will drop stones that you can use in the Wheel of Fortune system.
The stones function like tickets for the Wheel of Fortune.  The stones will provide a random item to you after you have spun the wheel. These items are very important sometimes. For example, they are essential materials for strengthening your weapon. In that case, you need to repeat to do the quest to farm the stones.

2.  After finishing side quests, you can get unique reward, such as soul shields which can help you gain strength and more experience. 

3.  Spend some time in grinding mobs. It is best to grind mobs on Lv10 - Lv15. You can gain more experience through grinding mobs, and you can't get this experience from finishing quests. The Dragon Soup items can boost the experience that you gain from combat, so you can grind mobs with the Dragon Soup together to gain more experience.

4.  Group up other players to grind the same area, and then you can finish grind easily.       
      
5.  Build the right character. Leveling up depends on two factors: how much AOE damage that your class has, and the defensive strength of your class. I think you won’t expect to move ahead with a poorly equipment and low defensive strength.

6.  It is necessary to strengthen your weapon with gems and accessories, even if your level is high, since you need to improve your damage ability.


All in all, you may level up slowly at first stage (Lv1 - Lv10), and then speed up fast at high-level. When you reach Lv45 or Lv45+, you can take the game at your own pace, and use your way to reach Lv50.
 
 

Blade & Soul: After Mushin's Tower, There Is the 100-Floor Infinite Tower

0

Compared with the Mushin's Tower, the Infinite Tower in Blade & Soul is 1v1 battle with unique rules and mechanics, and it has 100 floors. The Chinese server will first open the door to the tower later this month and welcome the bravest challengers. You can expect to play this content in the western version in the future.
 
Each floor you'll duel an NPC represents a particular class in the game, and it'll test your knowledge and experience against each type of opponent.


 
You don't go into fight unprepared, as you can choose an addition control skill before each fight. Making good use it will increase your chance to prevail.
 
Choose an additional CC skill
 
It's a long way to climb to the 100th floor but there's a special rule: if you defeat an opponent in very short time, you may be able to skip some of the following floors as a reward. Of course there's a leaderboard showing the best fighters in the tower.
