Hi Travellers,
It has been a month since we revealed the recent plan. So today the post here we come to bring you the news ;) The featured update will go live in 6.16 CST along with a 40% off discount!
And below we would like to talk a bit regarding the topic you may care about:
Update content, LQA Process & Wiki Plans
What's new in the update?
3 New Roles
Since v.1.0 launch, We're seeing lots of players desire to play with not only 9 characters but more.
So...In the update we've added Husnu/Akhal Sultan/Rebiya, play as the leader of the tribe, to have untasted experience in the great desert with unique Skills, Troops and Story plots.
NEW Talent & Random Quests
New Talents, after receiving the feedback, we found that it could be timing for a talent remake in the update too. Meanwhile, we also added a few more new random quests and NPC reactions in the desert to match. New roles + New talents + New random quests equal to? A new desert journey!
FPS Performance
We also focused on optimizing the performance. Under the same screen display, The current version V.1.0.3 will have a higher frame rate performance
(Internal Test: With 1650 GPU, 10- 20% FPS Improved)
Others KEYWORDS
Art polishment \ a few UI remakes \ New dungeons
* Shared full update log below :)
Wiki's Worklogs
After releasing v.1.0, We realized that Sands of Salzaar should have more capacity and a basic lore base to serve more users who is new to this community. So in early May, we have our wiki plans: Basic Database and Fandom Wiki
Today we'd share with you a database in Beta as the initial moves, hope it could ease a few confusions the game probably would bring in the early stage. It will also be continually updated like LQA Work and we'd love to hear your voice too! CHECK HERE
Meanwhile, we also have our people to build up the Fandom wiki these days. So we'd also to ask the community to help with certain rewards to build our WIKI with UGC power. Lovely to see you in discord if you are interested!
Anyway, we will share the wiki page soon ;)
Progress on English translation improvements
The English localization for Sands of Salzaar has received another update focused on unifying terminology, clarification, and improved quest dialogs.
As we strive to continually polish gameplay, the rich and winding storylines of the Great Desert will see further localization improvements over the coming months. We aim to release localization improvements roughly once per month, and are more than happy to hear both your suggestions and feedback on our progress!
Translation improvements in this update include:
● More improvements to dialogues and text throughout the beginning of the main story and Spiritmancer quest lines
● Hero skills have been adjusted to ensure that skill strengths and effects are properly translated
● Improved word-order & tone inconsistency issues in NPC dialogues
● Notable terminology changes
● Tribute is now called Devotion
● Clarification on Prestige vs. Favor - the system is now unified as Favor
We appreciate your patience and hope you are excited as we are to improve the overall quality of the English translation. The next localization update will see the continued concentration on skills, specifically those utilized by troop squadrons. We aim to provide the most immersive experience possible in Sands of Salazar!
