0s our very first brand new feature
3s that is coming in this update
5s which is the new quest system this is
7s something we teased a little bit earlier
9s from our last dive stream and now we get
11s to tell you guys more info about it so
13s basically the system quest system is
15s supposed to replace currently uh current
17s daily weekly challenges because we saw
19s that many people they were like uh
22s disappointed with this sometimes they're
24s getting they they do not have like any
25s control they're getting random uh
27s challenges they can't complete it they
30s don't want actually it's completed so
32s different reasons and uh different
34s feedback but mostly it was about that
36s they didn't have like any control they
38s can't they do not have like any choice
39s for this so uh that's basically the uh
43s main uh main main idea why we decided to
46s redo this system it's about the new
48s system it's about more uh interaction
51s uh more i mean i wouldn't say more
53s customizable quests because quests will
55s be like fixed but you have more choice
58s which question you would like to select
59s to complete and get get your reward
61s there thank you for this point uh it's
63s it's very it's very important to mention
66s i mentioned couple of times and i made
68s an emphasis that now we're trying to
70s uh not uh approach it in a way like
72s release and forget
74s but uh we trying to improve with uh with
78s further and future update this system
80s and first release with update 181 will
82s be kind of testing so we will be
84s collecting data we will be looking at
86s the performance of the of the system and
88s we for sure will be looking at the
89s community feedback and see what quests
91s in the future they would like to get uh
93s what the likes what these like how we
95s maybe need to rebalance it and this
97s system will be improved and this system
99s will will even be expanded and we'll get
102s new functionality there but now it's
105s very important to say it once again and
107s i probably will return to this point
110s again that it's a test and run so that
112s will be performing on not only on testo
114s of course but on live because we need to
116s see actual actual data and actual
119s performance of the system but it's like
121s it's not something that we will never
122s return to this but we will improve and
124s will improve and expand the system as
126s soon as possible i can uh already tell
128s you from uh like that chat but from what
130s i've seen that it is much more enjoyable
133s than what we had previously like the
135s challenges were always just there in the
137s back and you maybe some of you paid
139s attention to it but i i think mostly at
141s least in my case i just logged in and i
143s got a reward and i didn't even know if i
145s was following
147s the
148s weekly or daily challenge it just like
150s happened i never went to the tab i never
152s checked it out but now this new system
155s basically overhauls everything in
157s relation to that and it's just so much
159s better and so much more user-friendly
161s and interactive so
163s uh it's like a really great foundation
165s but and that being said let's actually
167s take a look at like how it works because
170s can can you already show the screenshot
173s i know i can
175s yeah
177s um we can we can get back to the
179s explanation so basically you can see uh
182s the screen with multiple quests a
185s request has its own value with the stars
188s or whatever are the symbols so and to uh
191s complete the like
193s weekly quests and they actually called
195s summons in our game you need to collect
197s uh specific
199s certain amount of of the stars and
201s points uh so you need like 30 30 of them
204s and after completing you are getting uh
207s a reward as a the starts point and also
210s you're getting in-game reward after you
213s collected uh like 30 30 30 points you
217s will be uh getting the main reward of
219s this like and then after this quest uh
222s all this quest will reset
224s and get mixed reshuffled and you can
226s start over again
228s and also like the amount of stars
230s basically reflect the complexity as well
232s so there will be like simple quests they
234s will be requested directed to the like
236s for loop uh pvp so you can basically
239s select what what would you like to to do
242s and how you would like to proceed there
243s very important for example if like some
246s players can
247s complete only like the easiest quest and
249s it gives like for example only one point
252s uh after completing the quest players
254s still can proceed uh towards the main
257s reward just repeating the same quest it
259s will not give you the in-game reward
261s anymore because the in-game reward
263s granted only on the first completion but
265s you still can accumulate the stars
267s points to move towards your main reward
269s and uh meanwhile i already seen some
271s questions to you but i think we go to
273s the picture so you can explain it there
275s a bit more so one question was like can
278s you only have one selected quest or
280s summon quest at a time
282s no you can progress in two selected
284s quests simultaneously or even three if
286s you unlock the third slot with blood
289s ones awesome so basically like everyone
292s has access to two quests they can summon
294s and they can complete those basically
296s what also bands mentioned at the start
298s we will move to this later but uh the
301s progress and basically which quests are
304s selected now will be presented also in
306s the lobby on the uh map map screen in
309s the mission so you you have an overview
311s on this it's not something that's
312s happening in the background and you have
314s no idea what you just did the progress
316s the selected quests will be displayed
318s exactly i can even show so this is in
320s the lobby uh so you can see the summon
323s quest
324s on the right side of your character so
326s in this case two summon quests and
328s you can also see it in game as you can
331s see and i think being able to track
333s these summons in game will also help you
335s stay on track i know with the previous
338s challenge system i would read the weekly
340s challenge like once and then you know
343s three days have passed and i haven't
344s gone back to that menu so i have
346s completely forgotten what i was supposed
348s to do now whenever you open your map
350s you'll have a little reminder right on
352s your left hand side about you know what
354s you're working towards to get those
355s stars and get those rewards and i seen
357s someone saying that oh you have to
359s complete 30 quests to get the uh blood
361s bond it's not the case as you can see
364s and senior already mentioned every uh
366s different quest have a different value
368s based on its difficulties from one to uh
371s i think it's six stars uh if it's max
375s yes yeah exactly so if you complete the
377s quest with six stars then you are
379s already a 6 out of 30 in your
380s progression and you could technically
382s have like two or three at the same time
383s so it's not 30 quest it's the amount of
385s stars you have to collect cine also
387s mentioned that you can repeat the same
388s quest multiple times but you won't get
391s the additional reward which you can see
393s on this picture for example the very
395s first quest which is the easiest to
396s extract with one bunty token you would
398s get an explosive of tier two if you
401s repeat that quest again and again you
402s will get the stars for it but not the
404s explosives in this case question i'm
406s seeing in chat is uh are these quests
408s gonna be the same every week for every
411s player or is each person gonna have
412s their own each person getting like so
415s basically we have the pool and then
417s that's rochelle fold and you're getting
418s this quest so it can be different from
420s what's your uh partner got i also seen a
423s question that what happens if you select
425s a quest but you don't want to complete
427s it anymore can you cancel it yes you
429s basically you can you can cancel quest
431s uh any time and select another one so
434s you can reselect it i think what's
436s happened to me is i'm going to select
438s the extract with 10 bounty tokens and
441s then i'm going to give up after like two
443s days because i've only gotten out once
446s yeah i also seen some other
448s questions so is there a way if you don't
450s like one quest to reshuffle them or is
452s it like only will change next week or
454s next monday i've mentioned already
457s before that the system is going to be
460s like improved and expanded so we just
461s need to get initial uh performance and
464s balancing data how to approach it better
466s but yes in the future we have plans when
469s a player should be able reshuffle uh on
472s their own the quest if they doesn't like
474s if they do not like something that they
476s can just reshuffle
478s but that will not be in this iteration
479s because we need again we need proper
481s data to uh balance it out and also we
484s need to
485s uh we will create and we will be adding
487s more and more uh quests to the poll with
490s every update i see that everyone is
491s talking about the two grunts uh yeah
493s just wait wait a minute okay yeah
496s don't say
497s if we don't happen to get to your
499s questions today too like senior was
501s saying this is a system that will be
502s evolving and improving as we go further
506s on with hunts so if you have an idea if
508s there's something you want to see with
509s this quest and summon system please let
512s us know we have a discord we have our
514s social media that we're always keeping
516s an eye out for someone again that's how
518s to earn the blood bonds uh i think cine
521s if i'm not mistaken there's two way it
522s could be a reward for a quest like a
524s singular quest but also the weekly uh
528s accumulative reward so there's
531s uh and actually i seen another question
533s uh to you is that is the weekly reward
535s or always the same or will that change
538s apparently we keep it as a bloodborne
540s reward like it's not it's not even
543s necessarily weekly so it's like
544s basically on completion you you can
546s maybe complete it in one day um so but
549s again in the future we are looking at
551s the ways how to make it more engaging
553s and what rewards to uh add to the pool
557s uh i saw a question asking uh do the
560s quests auto select or are you able to
562s choose which one you want to do
564s uh you that's basically the main idea
567s and i i'm following the chat and i see
569s like there are like two two teams one
571s one p one team was saying a team of
573s players are saying that like oh like we
575s want to we want to select it so is it
577s going to be auto selected because i
579s would like to choose and another another
581s part is saying like oh i wanted like
582s auto progress there
585s so it's kind of like
586s one of the team i'm going to make
589s a bit unhappy but now you will be able
591s to select specific requests so it's not
593s sequential it's not something that you
595s start with at first then so condenser it
597s no you can actually start with nines you
599s can start with thieves you can select
601s like any quest out of this uh presented
603s quest to you how to
605s how to progress so and that was uh
608s basically the internal uh
610s and initial idea to give more control to
612s the players and more choice to players
614s i've seen that some more questions
616s actually so
617s someone else if your teammates progress
620s counts towards yours so let's say you
622s have like kill enemy hunters yes yes
625s yes
626s that's enough yeah that's the best
628s answer yeah yes
630s another question i've seen what happens
632s if you press t
634s do your quest stay the same uh pro
637s progress should stay there when you we
638s need to check this uh
640s um
641s uh progress should should stay players
643s shouldn't lose the progress because like
645s it should be similar how for example
646s this event is happening so it's not it's
648s not resetting any progress but we need
650s to check on this sunny another question
652s we're seeing uh for the third uh summon
655s slot is that a
657s one-time unlock or is that something you
659s will need to get every week currently
660s it's a one-time unlock but again
663s we will look at the uh numbers and we we
666s can't we can't say that it will stay the
668s same i mean price will be adjusted of
670s course if it's if you need to do this
672s like every week or if you need to do
674s this only once so but now the update
676s unlock stays stays for you after you did
679s it after you've got the third slot uh
681s someone's asking if they have to pay
684s blood bonds to get all the quests
685s finished uh note the blood bonds that
688s you would pay would only be to get that
690s third summon slot so that you could get
692s a third summon that you're working on in
694s game if you wanted to earn all nine of
697s the bonus rewards and get all 30 stars
699s of course you could do that with just
701s the two default seven slots that come in
704s you could even even just get it done
706s with only one if you want uh and someone
708s asked about the reverse uh so the
710s rewards are not handlers as you can see
712s for each quest it actually tells you in
714s the bottom right corner uh what you got
717s so in some cases you can see it's a tier
720s 2 pistol a tier 3 rifle some handlers so
723s you'll exactly know what you get when
725s you complete the quest itself and you
727s will get it on the first completion of
729s that quest you can also see the summons
732s menu has been moved from where the
733s challenges used to be at the end of the
735s ui it's actually right after your
737s bloodline progression so hopefully
739s you'll be able to get to it a little bit
740s quicker in between your matches just so
742s you can switch out which quest you're
745s working on and keep an eye out but
746s you'll also see it in that lobby screen
748s too
749s like the next screenshot shows so you
751s should always have an idea of what
753s you're working on i also see the ques
755s the
756s question in the chat that like so i need
758s to complete every quest so again you can
761s repeat the quest
763s so you can basically do 30 times the
767s quest summon someone number one 30 times
770s and you will still uh progress and
772s complete um
774s completely like weekly achievement this
776s time and you will get the main reward so
778s if you don't like the summon number one
781s you can do ten times someone number five
783s so it's not necessarily to complete like
786s every summon each time you can repeat
789s some some uh summons you can uh
792s you can select all of them so basically
795s it's about the given the choice
797s so it's up to you i think completing uh
800s 30 of the summon number one is how i'm
802s gonna have to finish this every week
805s and she actually should do the developer
807s live stream and where you just like
809s repeat it
812s and uh yeah i still seen one question
814s asking if you can have the same quest
816s summoned two times
818s simultaneously
820s uh the same uh the same someone having
823s simultaneously no it's not possible
825s because you need to select two different
826s one in one slot uh in in every slot but
830s then you can repeat again
833s and to quickly address we have some
834s people asking why we're doing a small q
836s a just right here um that's because
838s we're going to be losing senia in just a
840s second so we're trying to get all these
842s questions knocked out while we still
843s have her
844s as well as this is a new system to hunt
846s so there's a lot of different questions
849s we would also love to hear your feedback
851s though when the system comes to the test
853s server for 1.8.1 make sure you're
855s getting in there you're picking off out
857s your quests and you're letting us know
859s how it feels how the progression feels
861s and and the rewards that kind of stuff
863s senior also mentioned like your feedback
865s is very important for this because this
867s is the feature that will be improved
869s upon in the future so it is very
871s important to us to uh to tell us like do
874s you like this quest would you like to
876s see a different type of quest uh what
878s did you hate about this what did you
880s hopefully nothing but
882s what did you love about this and that
883s will really help us even if you have
885s ideas how to improve it on the future
886s make sure to leave your feedback after
888s the test servers or even after the live
890s servers because uh as senior mentioned
892s even the live environment will be a bit
894s of a trial ground for this and we will
896s look into all the data collect it from
898s that and try to improve upon this and
900s build up on this in the future
