Cultivating dinosaurs of various colors as battle pets to cope with battles in different environments is one of the biggest points of the game Ark: Survival Evolved.

Having said that, pets are set in many games, and it is not only in this game that there is a way to cultivate pets. Why is this gameplay in Ark: Survival Evolved won the praise of countless players, and people are full of praise?

Dinosaurs, as ancient creatures, have a mighty shape, which is very novel to many players. After riding a dinosaur, it can transform into a so-called dragon knight. Different types of dinosaurs have different characteristics. From those who are good at collecting, to those that are specially used for production, to those that are good at fighting, when controlling these dinosaurs, you can experience the fun brought by various gameplays

These are just superficial reasons.

The real core lies in Ark: Survival and Evolution, which uniquely developed the iterative inheritance routine, and implemented the concept that one generation is stronger than one generation.

In other games with pet gameplay, what players can do is probably to catch wild monsters and turn them into their own pets.

Or at the moment of catching it, directly brush the monster to level 0. If you are a little more careful, you will design a small prop in the game that can wash wild monsters into a 0-level whiteboard, so that players can experience more of the pleasure of cultivating by hand by washing their pets by themselves. Generally speaking, the principle that whichever one is caught can only be cultivated is basically followed.

But in Ark: Survival Evolved, a completely different set of rules is used.

Dinosaurs living in the wild will also be randomly assigned levels. But after being captured by the player, they will not be suddenly brushed to level 0, and there are no small props in the game for players to wash their pets.

Instead, there are two other very special rules:

First, no matter how many levels the captured dinosaur is, the number of levels that can be improved the day after tomorrow is the same.

To put it simply, for example, if the wild dinosaur you caught is level 1, and the other one caught by someone else is level 31, then after you raise your own dinosaurs to the upper limit, his That end is still 30 levels higher than yours.

Although the attribute points of wild dinosaurs are randomly assigned, the number of attribute points will also be calculated according to the level.

In other words, a level 31 wild dragon has 30 more attribute points than a level 1 dragon.

And this gap will also be preserved after the player tames the wild dragon into a battle pet.

Second, the pets can be bred. The same type of dinosaurs can choose one male and one female and put them together. After a certain period of time, one or several dragon eggs can be born. Also, the level of a dragon egg depends on the average level of its parents.

This may not be easy to understand, so let's continue with examples.

Suppose you caught two Tyrannosaurus rex, exactly one male and one female, with original levels of 1 and 31 respectively.

How many levels will the dragon eggs born after the mating of these two dinosaurs be?

It's not the 16th level calculated after 1312, because no one will skip the upgrade directly and arrange them to breed and lay eggs. Generally speaking, players will first train a generation of dragons to the upper limit of the level, and then let them complete breeding at full level, and give birth to higher-level dragon eggs as much as possible.

Assuming that the underlying rule is that each pet dragon can only be upgraded by 100 levels, then when the final mating is performed, the levels of the two first-generation dragons will be 101 and 131 respectively. And the dragon egg born after their combination is 116 level of 1011312.

Before hatching, it was level 116. After hatching, it can be upgraded to another 100 levels. That is to say, the final level limit of the second-generation dragon cultivated by the player will be 216.

Compared with the first-generation dragons captured from the wild, the final attributes of the second-generation dragons are obviously much stronger.

If you are not satisfied, you can continue to cultivate three or four generations of dragons until you have fully maxed out individual attributes such as attack, blood volume, and endurance, and raised your level to the upper limit stipulated by the underlying rules of the game.

The higher the level, the better the attributes and the stronger the combat power.

Driven by these two rules, players will give priority to choosing higher-level wild dragons for taming, and persevere in cultivating second-generation dragons and third-generation dragons with better attributes.

Wild dragons with higher levels have fewer numbers and greater challenge intensity. In the process of cultivating the second-generation dragon and the third-generation dragon, there will also be a certain degree of randomness in the inheritance of attributes, and there will be situations where it needs to be repeated several times. From the player's point of view, only a few people would dislike trouble, while the vast majority of the remaining people would regard it as a kind of fun, and then become more addicted to it.

Uh, that's a bit of a stretch.

All in all, the dozens of dinosaurs sent out by Shi Xiaolei at this moment are all the first generation of dragons he captured from the wild.

Although they have all been leveled and raised to the upper limit of the level that he can reach, in the end, because the attributes are not very good, these first-generation dragons don't hold a lot of weight in his heart.

It is completely incomparable with Dabai, who was fostered by him on Niihao Island, and Stark was responsible for all the daily supplies. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com has now been regarded as a star by the audience.

Let's put it this way, if Dabai, who is a third-generation dragon, is Shi Xiaolei's most cherished treasure, then the dozens of first-generation dragons sent out by him now have a slightly better status in his heart than cannon fodder. lost.

Even if he died, Shi Xiaolei would only be depressed for a while at most.

Far from being frustrated and annoyed, let alone how uncomfortable it is.

"Locke."

"Um?"

"When did you catch so many dinosaurs again?" Beunita asked Shi Xiaolei suddenly, bored.

"When I was free, I caught them one after another. What's the matter?" Shi Xiaolei responded casually while continuing to dismember the demon and collect those parts that might be valuable.

"Why?" Beunita raised her eyebrows: "There must be a reason. You are not the kind of character who will take the initiative to work overtime. If you don't have a certain purpose anyway, I don't believe that you will simply because of boredom. Running and catching dinosaurs for fun, that's the way to pass the time."

"Isn't this an application received some time ago? Uh, it doesn't seem appropriate to say that." Shi Xiaolei explained without turning his head: "Didn't we set up a branch garden in China? After so long, The facilities and everything are almost built. Then, the staff sent there applied to the headquarters."

"After all, it is in China. If something goes wrong, then I will be guilty. To be on the safe side, I think it is better to send some dinosaurs cloned by Tony to the past." With a little more effort, Shi Xiaolei paused unconsciously: "In comparison, the ones I got out of the ark are more humane and obedient. So, I plan to take you down at last."
