IT Home reported on October 26 that the first major expansion for NetEase’s “逆水寒：新世界” 【Miao Region Incense Affairs】 will be officially launched on October 30, and it will use a dual-line update framework for the first time.
According to today’s official pre-launch announcement, with the new version launching, [Selfie Mode] will be officially available; there will also be a new [Guest Station] added, allowing players to meet more compatible companions; combined with the fully updated [Production Team Station] upgrade, it helps players capture impressive scenes effortlessly.
In the [Selfie Mode], players can switch between selfies while walking around, and they can adjust the position of their arms as well as the direction in which they hold the camera.
If you don’t like sitting upright with your gaze fixed on the camera, you can also move your eyes at any time and freely adjust the direction of your head and eyes.
In the hand-holding state, enter a selfie, and the TA next to you will sync with the player to perform the selfie action.
The guests traveling with them also silently look at the camera and actively join in the group photo with the players.
The new mode also supports sitting selfie. Sit on a wooden chair in Da Li town, and let the leisurely moments of the South of the Colorful Clouds be fully appreciated.
When taking selfies with pets, you can control whether they look at the camera at any time. Moreover, they will actively approach the camera to participate in the selfie interaction — pets of different species and personalities will each have their own unique ways of catching the attention.
According to IT Home from the official source, the development team is currently working hard on debugging. It is expected that in future versions, more poses and boundaries for selfies will be added — such as selfies while riding a mount or custom action selfies.
In the new version, [Merchant Station] will officially join [Production Team Station], and players can list their merchants' works there.
It allows free customization of the host’s opening remarks, opening actions and voice, as well as the cover background. It also enables multiple works for the same host, giving TA various different personas in each work.
The guest artist’s works will be naturally integrated into the daily recommendation stream on the team site. It still maintains the [performance mode] that players are familiar with, and will not disrupt their browsing rhythm.
If players want to see more works by the Gatekeeper, they can also browse freely on the dedicated “Gatekeeper” channel. Players can also click 【Interview】 to enter the world of TA and identify potential partners from all the famous Gatekeepers in the industry.
In addition to random encounters, players can also search precisely using conditions such as IP, character name, and character tags.
After a good fit during the [Interview], a [mission] is initiated. This guest who has retained the creator’s full set of high-end outfits (without the player needing to own those outfits and face-painting) will be added to the player’s guest list as a “24-hour special companion”.
These diverse characters in the commissioning group are alsocompatible with selfie features. When players take selfies, they will actively appear in the photo and cooperate with the players to take pictures together.
If the 24-hour interaction leaves the player wanting more, they can continue to submit missions, or directly recruit the TA into their ranks.
In addition, [Drama Team Station] also features three major upgrades in the new version —
After the new version update, the team's website works will support footprint effects for the playback appearance.
Click on the “Copy Password” option added in the “More” menu of the work page, and you can generate a personalized sharing text containing the work ID, work title, and author name with one click. The recipient only needs to copy this text, open the crew site, and the system will automatically recognize the clipboard password. After a popup confirmation, it will directly jump to playback.
In the new version, the crew mode will also support segmented editing of speed tracks. Whether it’s custom actions, subtle facial changes, or voice lines and camera movements, you can enable fast or slow playback as you like.
