"Dear players, due to policy reasons and severe inter-regional network lag, the server will be segregated according to the nationality of the player. Players from Hua Xia will no longer be able to log into foreign servers!"
"Diablo OL will have a new domestic server, operated by Penguin Online Games. However, players will not be able to transfer their account data from the international server. Players will have to create a new character on the Hua Xia server!"
"To compensate players for their losses, players who have already created an account and played the game for more than an hour will receive game compensation. We will calculate the amount of time each account spent in the game, and give out compensation based on the standard of 1 gold per hour. "
"Players will have to register a new Daqian account, then bind the Daqian account to the original account. After that, the compensation will be automatically sent to the player's backpack."
"Welcome to the end of Open Beta, Diablo OL will welcome a new patch: The Black Tide."
"In the Black Tide patch, a new map will be released: Black Lakeside!"
"Players' level cap will be increased from 25 to 30. At the same time, normal monsters from 25 to 30 will be added, as well as a level 30 wild boss: The Hand of Darkness."
"The Hand of Darkness is extremely powerful. It is recommended that at least 5 players have already challenged it. At the same time, the Hand of Darkness boss has a chance to drop 1-3 level 30 Dark Gold equipment, as well as a large amount of Dark Gold equipment crafting materials."
"New feature: Mercenary Party. Like-Minded players can form a mercenary party with a maximum of 5 members. In party mode, players in the red party are unable to PK, and all of them have the right to pick up dropped items. Killing monsters in the mercenary party mode will give 20% -50% EXP based on the number of members in the party. This EXP will be evenly distributed to all members of the party. "
"New feature: Added a new NPC: Mercenary Guild Master. Like-Minded players above level 30 can accept the quest to form a Mercenary Guild from the Mercenary Guild Master. After completing the quest, the Mercenary Guild will be created. "
"New equipment slot: Jewelry. Jewelry does not increase attack, defense, HP, or other normal stats. However, it can increase a special stat which includes: Paralyze, Stun, Bleed, Silence, Tendon Break, Freeze, and Burn. As for the specific details, players can experience and explore them in the game. "
"We're very happy to announce that after two weeks of open beta testing, Diablo OL's systems have been adjusted and the game can now run stably. Diablo OL will be officially operational with a small amount of game operation fees (one of our servers costs two hundred thousand RMB!)"
"In the new version, players will enjoy three hours of free gaming time when they create new accounts. After three hours, they will need to purchase a Game Points Card and top up their Game Points before they can continue playing the game!"
"100 Game Points are priced at $10. Each Game Point can support 10 minutes of gameplay. Players can purchase Penguin Game Point Cards through Internet cafes, newsstands, and other retail outlets. "

"F * ck, I actually have to start over!" When he first saw the game announcement, Zhang Zhahui was a little annoyed. He had worked so hard for two weeks, and it was all for nothing. This made Zhang Zhahui very unhappy and depressed.
However, Zhang Zhahui smiled when he saw that he would be compensated in gold coins based on the number of hours he spent.
Unlike in future games where gold coins were worthless, gold coins were very valuable in Diablo OL. This was because monsters usually dropped copper coins. One hundred copper coins could only be exchanged for one silver coin, and one hundred silver coins could only be exchanged for one gold coin.
Normally, monsters would only drop a dozen or so copper coins at a time. One gold coin could only be obtained by killing thousands of monsters, so gold coins were very rare.
Apart from that, gold coins were also very useful in the game. Whether it was buying potions, special materials, or crafting equipment, they all required a large amount of gold coins.
At the same time, gold coins were also the currency in the game. They could be used to purchase all kinds of dropped equipment from players. In any case, it was very useful. When he was in the Internet cafe, someone had already offered to buy gold coins from other players at the price of 10 yuan per gold coin.
Zhang Zhahui was online for at least twenty hours a day. That would be two hundred and eighty hours in two weeks, which was equivalent to two hundred and eighty gold coins.
A piece of purple equipment only sold for five gold coins in the game. How could Zhang Zhahui not be happy?
It was more than enough to make up for his previous losses.
Moreover, when Zhang Zhahui saw the new bosses, new monsters, new levels, and a new mercenary system, he was very excited. Wasn't this something that was officially prepared for his brothers?
With the mercenary system, he and his brothers would be able to kill anything in their path.
However, when Zhang Zhahui saw that the game was actually charging a fee, he was completely dumbfounded.
One hundred game points was ten yuan, and one point was ten minutes. In other words, it would cost ten yuan to play for a thousand minutes, which was ten yuan for sixteen hours. This price was simply too much. Zhang Zhahui could almost see his yuan disappearing again.
"This is too much. My little treasury is going to be empty!" Zhang Zhahui scratched his head. Although Zhang Zhahui's family had some money, and his parents were willing to give him money, his gaming expenses had been increasing recently.
This was because Zhang Zahui was not the only one who played the game. Many of his brothers, who were not doing well financially, had to pay for their internet bills and even instant noodles. Otherwise, why would these brothers all support Zhang Zahui and let him be the boss? Wasn't it because he was willing to pay?
Therefore, Zhang Zhahui's daily gaming expenses were around a hundred yuan. Now that he had to pay to play the game, Zhang Zhahui felt even worse.
However, it was obviously impossible for Zhang Zhahui to give up gaming. Instead, Zhang Zhahui rushed to the counter of the internet cafe and bought a thirty game point card in front of everyone. He then logged into his game account and started his crazy battle career in Diablo OL.
It couldn't be helped. Online games were simply too fun!
Soon after, Zhang Zhahui's brothers arrived one after another. When they saw the update announcement for Diablo OL, their expressions turned ugly.
These people started to curse and curse at the Penguin Online Games Company. They scolded them for being crazy about money. However, no one left the internet café. Some people who had money in their hands immediately took out some money to buy some cards.
There were also those who did not have enough money. They could only rub themselves against Zhang Zahui's back, refusing to leave for a long time as they watched Zhang Zahui fight monsters.
"This is a ten game point card. You can take it if you don't have money, but you have to pay me back in the future!" Zhang Zhahui sighed.
Although he didn't want to pay, it was impossible for him to give up on his brothers. Otherwise, who would support him as the boss in the future?
Zhang Zhahui was used to being treated as the boss in and out of the game. He didn't want to give up on his brothers.
"Boss, we don't have money to pay you back!" These people said helplessly. "We've emptied our family's savings. I lied to my mom yesterday and said I was going to work in the Daqian industrial park. My mom only gave me some money to eat out. We really don't have any money left!"
"How about this boss. Didn't someone accept gold coins a while ago? We've compensated everyone with quite a bit of gold coins this time. That person was accepting gold coins for 5 RMB each, but we'll sell them to you for 3 RMB each to pay for the card fees! "These people said pitifully.
"Sure!" Zhang Zhahui had an idea. 3 RMB for a gold coin was quite cheap. There would probably be a lot of people accepting gold coins in internet cafes after the Chinese server was released.
If he sold them, he might even be able to make a small profit.
Therefore, Zhang Zhahui agreed without hesitation. When he went out to buy food, Zhang Zhahui even went to the bank to withdraw the last 2000 RMB he had in his vault. He then ran into the internet cafe and shouted, "I'm accepting gold coins for 2 RMB each!"
Since most of the people in the internet cafe were old players, and there was only one server in Hua Xia, the people in the internet cafe were basically all together.
Moreover, because of the large amount of gold coins, no one was short of gold coins. Instead, they were short of game point cards.
Therefore, when Zhang Zhahui shouted, many people who were waiting for money to buy point cards immediately responded. Zhang Zhahui's 2000 RMB quickly became 1000 gold coins.
"I hope I can earn a little more card fees!" Zhang Zhahui thought as he looked at the huge amount of 1000 gold coins in his account.
