Dead by Daylight: Resident Evil: PROJECT W features a new Killer – Albert Wesker, The Mastermind – and new Survivors Ada Wong and Rebecca Chambers. Purchasing this add-on unlocks an exclusive charm: Green Vial.



A visionary as brilliant as he is ruthless. Albert Wesker – The Mastermind– was a high-ranking official before ambition drove him to betrayal. He exposed himself to the Prototype virus. As his cells change, a strange black Fog seeped into the hanger and filled his vision.

Dexterous and enigmatic, Ada’s survival skills make her a valuable ally, provided interests remain aligned. A S.T.A.R.S. Field Medic, Rebecca leads by example to assist those in need – even if it means facing grave danger.

Reworks

• Weapons and Ships now use same speed calculations logic and their values can be compared directly

HEXAD is finally getting to a point where I think most of the necessary Quality of Life features have been completed (except for item sets). Now I can finally work on adding some fun to the game! :) At this point I'm not sure how many seasons I will be able to release per year - I have the high level design for several seasons planned out but they each take a lot of time to implement.

For anyone not familiar with Seasons concepts in games; Seasons are a way to allow players a fresh start and introduce new features to the game (mechanics, item types, mob types, game modes, etc.). Season Heroes do not have access to Standard Stash/Loot and vice versa. Seasons also allow me to make potentially drastic changes to the core game without them being overly impactful to veteran players.

• When a new season begins, you'll have the option to see your Standard Heroes/Stash/Loot, or your Season Heroes/Stash/Loot. I've not decided how this will be done visually and technically yet!
• Seasons will have separate leaderboards.

• Your Season Stash and Standard Stash use the same Stash size calculation. Purchasing more slots in one mode will have an affect on the other.
• Your Cosmetic items will be visible and available in your Standard Stash and your Season Stash, however each cosmetic item can still only be equipped on one Hero.

• There will be several cosmetic items that can only be earned during that Season and will never be available after.
• There will be unique cosmetic items for the top N players (of each leaderboard?) for that season.
• Each Season will introduce a new Item Influence type that cannot be earned in Standard until that season is over. There is also a chance that these Influences do NOT get rolled into standard or into the next season.

• When a season closes, your Season Main character will be deleted. Their experience will be rolled into your Standard Main character.
• Other Heroes will be moved into your Standard Roster as room permits.
• Currencies (except diamonds), and Loot Chests will be rolled into your Standard account.
• Diamonds used for dyes on your Season Main will be reimbursed if there isn't an alternative to diamond dyes costs yet.
• There will be a bit of downtime in between Seasons so that players can take a small break and get their stashes and Heroes sorted.

Mini Events are a series of adventures that are only available during the event and award a unique Currency or Loot Chest. These events will occur in between Seasons.

• Save up your currency to purchase cosmetic items that are only available during that mini event.
• Remaining currency at the end of the event will likely be converted to Diamonds at some ratio.

The first Mini Event: 'Pumpkinhead' will begin this Fall. After the Mini event is completed the first Season: 'The Mad Alchemist' will begin. More on this in the future.

Ever enjoyed a quest so much that you want to experience it all again? Or hated one so much you reckon you deserve a big shiny trophy for completing it? Then Quest Speedrunning is the update for you!

Zoom your way through Gielinor in our newest official game mode: Quest Speedrunning!

It's time to square up your strategy, turn 'numbers go up' on its head and test how well you really know Old School’s most iconic quests!

---

Quest Speedrunning takes place on members-only worlds with separate save files, so your actions here won’t affect your usual account. Speedrun effectively, and you’ll earn reward points which will transfer across to your main account in the normal game mode.

Upon logging on to a Speedrunning world, you’ll be prompted to select the quest you’d like to run. After you’ve made your choice, the game will automatically adjust your stats to the recommended levels for the quest you’ve chosen, as well as providing all the relevant items. This keeps things fair and ensures that everyone starts in the same place.

There are a few key differences between Speedrunning Worlds and normal ones:

• No tutorial.
  
• No trading – all players are considered Iron accounts.
  
• No PvP.
  
• No access to Castle Wars, the PvP Arena, Fight Pits, Last Man Standing, Rat Pits, Soul Wars, or Trouble Brewing.
  
• Teleport cooldowns (such as the Home Teleport) are paused on logout, so players can’t log out and wait 30 minutes to regain their teleport and cheat the system.
  
• Shops have a static stock and items are never sold out.
  
• Items can still be sold to shops but will be immediately deleted.
  
• Items picked up from the floor are player-specific, so multiple speedrunners can obtain the same item without having to worry about competition!
  
• Dropped items behave as normal, but they will be deleted once the speedrun ends.
  
• Death works as normal.

In addition, to discourage chicanery, the following rules apply to players on Speedrunning Worlds who are not on a speedrun:

• XP gain is disabled.
  
• Deaths are safe and any items dropped on death are immediately deleted. If you die while not on a speedrun, you will respawn in Lumbridge with the items you had.

While not speedrunning, you’re free to roam the world and watch other speedrunners do their thing. That said, they might not have time for a chat!

---

Your journey begins in the Quest Speedrunning Menu, which will pop up when you log in to a Speedrunning World. Here, you’ll be able to see all the key information about your run, including:

• Current Speedrun Time
  
• Personal Best Time
  
• Global Best Time
  
• Times required for each trophy (see Rewards section)
  
• Unlocks
  
• Items

Again, once you’ve set up your speedrun your character will be fully reset, and your stats and items will be readjusted to the preset for that quest.

When you’re ready to go, you’ll be conveniently whisked away to the start point of your chosen quest.

You can also open this menu mid-run to cancel your current adventure and start over if things go wrong.

Unlocks

Under this heading you can see all the stats, quests, travel, and other unlocks you’ll get when speedrunning the selected quest. These unlocks are the same for everyone.

Items

This heading shows the items you’ll get when starting your chosen quest. Be aware that the items given are not necessarily the items required – for example, if the quest requires a dagger, you may be given a suitable pickaxe (or the money to buy one) to go mine some ore and smith it into the dagger you need.

---

The race will begin after you speak to the relevant NPC and begin the quest – after that point, the Speedrun Timer will be ticking!

Logging out will pause the timer but be aware that doing so will add a couple of seconds to your time to prevent logging out becoming a viable strategy.

Your current time is shown on the Speedrunning Menu and the Speedrunning Helper, which appears onscreen throughout the run and displays the time required for the next trophy.

The timer will automatically stop once the quest is complete or when the speedrun is abandoned, which can be done at any time via the Speedrunning Menu.

---

Quest Speedrunning will launch with five iconic quests for you to try. This will limit your ability to obtain Reward Points to a maximum of 1600 points, as four trophies can be earned for each quest – but be assured that more are on the way!

Once we’ve given players the chance to try speedrunning and are satisfied that no major changes are needed, we’ll introduce two additional quests a month for at least five months. That means that the number of Reward Points available will increase by 640 Points per month.

We’re hoping that this schedule will also create a sense of community among speedrunners as they try to figure out the monthly quests. We can’t wait to see what wild and wacky strategies you go for!

After five months, we’ll reassess how frequently new quests should be added, and which ones will make it into the game mode.

We want to make sure that any additional quests we add are suitable for speedrunning. In some cases, we’ll need to remove bottlenecks so that people’s world record attempts aren’t ruined by other people standing in the wrong spot!

For now though, let’s take a look at the five quests you’ll be able to speedrun at launch:


Please note that the times given above are subject to balancing changes following player feedback. We’re especially interested to hear from the speedrunning community, as these are the players most familiar with what we’re trying to achieve – but any and all feedback is very welcome.

Additionally, although the first five quests available are all free-to-play, Quest Speedrunning is a members-only game mode.

In the next five months, we’ll be making the following quests available to speedrun:

---

The Quest Speedrunning beta will begin on September 14th, 2022, and last for two weeks. We’ll be using the beta, and corresponding player feedback, to make adjustments and ensure that this game mode hits the right mark.

Keep your eyes peeled for more beta news!

---

Since Quest Speedrunning is ultimately a niche way to play the game, we think the rewards should be as accessible as possible, rather than limited to the small cohort of players who engage regularly with the game mode.

The vast majority of rewards will be purchasable with Reward Points and tradeable on the Grand Exchange. If you have enough gold, you can get all the rewards simply by paying someone else to do the hard work!

The major exception to this rule is that trophies will be untradeable. Earning a trophy should feel like a real achievement, after all.

With only five quests available at launch, Reward Points will be limited for a short time – but don’t panic! As we said above, each month following launch will bring two new quests, and a whopping 640 Reward Points to earn.

Reward Shop and Reward Points



Reward Points

You can earn four different trophies per quest, ranging from Bronze to Platinum! Earning a trophy for the first time will get you Reward Points – the better the trophy, the more Points you’ll get!

• Bronze: 10 Points
  
• Silver: 30 Points
  
• Gold: 80 Points
  
• Platinum: 200 Points

The total Reward Points available for each quest is 320 Points.

But that’s not all – you’ll also unlock your hard-earned trophies as in-game items! They provide no mechanical buffs, but they will show everyone you meet that you’re a Quest Speedrunning champion.

To unlock the trophies as items, you’ll need to unlock every trophy of that level for all the quests on the Speedrunning list – so to wield the Bronze Trophy, you’ll need to complete all the quests to at least Bronze standard.

You can only earn a given trophy once, but you can always go back and try to earn a higher-level one! Be aware that you can earn multiple trophies in one speedrun, so if you get the Platinum on your first go, you’ll also unlock Gold, Silver, and Bronze.

The Speedrunning Menu will help you keep track of which trophies you’ve already earned, and the Speedrunning Helper will let you know which time you need to beat to earn your next trophy.

Right, before we move on to the other rewards, we’ve got our first poll question!

Poll Question #1: Should untradeable trophies be added to the game as rewards for Quest Speedrunning, as described in the blog? Please note that the exact number of points earned from trophies is still subject to balancing changes.

---

Reward Shop

Once you’ve got some Reward Points saved up, you can spend them in the Quest Speedrunning Reward Shop, which can be found just outside the Grand Exchange on main game worlds.

Here’s what they have in stock:

Adventurer's Outfit (Tiers 1-3, Tradeable)



The Adventurer’s Outfit has no stats, but it is the new best-in-slot fashionscape for Quest Cape enjoyers! Choose from one of three distinct sets, each including boots, legs, a body and a hood.

Tier 1 costs 200 Reward Points, Tier 2 costs 600 Reward Points, and Tier 3 costs 1800 Reward Points.

Poll Question #2: Should the Adventurer's Outfit (Tiers 1-3) be added to the game as described in the blog?

---

Speedy Teleport Scroll (Tradeable)



The Speedy Teleport Scroll changes your Home Teleport animation to make your character run on the spot! It’ll cost you 600 Reward Points, but we reckon the cardio benefits are worth way more than that.

Poll Question #3: Should the Speedy Teleport Scroll be added to the game as described in the blog?

---

Giant Stopwatch (Tradeable)



There’s no excuse to be late when you’re carrying the Giant Stopwatch around! This titanic timepiece is held in the weapon slot, and overrides your ready, walk, and run animations. Take it home for a meagre 1,200 Reward Points!

Poll Question #4: Should the Giant Stopwatch cosmetic be added to the game as described in the blog?

---

As always, we’ve been paying close attention to your feedback. Here’s what you had to say about Quest Speedrunning:


And if that wasn’t enough feedback for you, feel free to tell us what you think of our latest plans in our latest Quest Speedrunning survey, which you can find here. We’ll make sure to carefully review your feedback and make any necessary changes before the poll goes live.



Assuming all is well, we’ll be launching the Quest Speedrunning beta on September 14th, and it’ll last two weeks. As we said, we’re especially interested in feedback from the speedrunning community, but we’ll take everyone’s thoughts and ideas into account while deciding our next steps.

We’re aiming for a September 28th release date, which is slightly earlier than the October launch we promised in the Gielinor Gazette. Hurrah!

Last but by no means least, we’d like to thank the speedrunning community for all the time they’ve already spent helping us fine-tune this update. We really appreciate it, and hope that this game mode will exceed all your expectations!

This week's update:


Two new personalities found their way into the game - a 😍 robosexual and a 😡 robohater



Robosexual, in tune with its flavor, replaces the need for a real egirl in your deck and thirsts for your opponent. Robohater has a funky card that can CANCEL multiple posts and continues the theme of rewards for low life.


Grindset challenge goes up to lvl 4 now, with lvl 2 and 3 granting achievements. (4 might end up geting pushed to a higher level in next update. is hard.) The levels are unlocked by completing the previous level with ANY modifiers, easy mode allowed. But achievements are only granted on completion without easy mode.


I buffed last week's HOT TAKES to be more usable since they ended up being a bit too clunky. Also, pinned posts with drawbacks had their drawbacks reduced so taking a route through a pin isn't as much of a gamble. Some of the drawbacks could pretty much end a run for no reason if you got to choose from two pins that had drawbacks and didn't synergize with your deck. Didn't really make sense.

Happy update day, adventurers!

You know, good things sometimes take a little more time... Yeah I know, we announced this update back in May. But with the current overall situation on our planet, some things simply can't be planned so well in advance. Anyway, we are really sorry to make you wait for such a long time!

And since you've been waiting long enough already, without additional blah blah, let's get straight to the additional content/changes/fixes that update 1.0.2 makes to Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit:

• Puzzle rebalancing: We did some puzzle rebalancing to reduce frustration. Yes, we know some puzzles are not the most loved ones by some players, so we tried to rebalance a couple of them (some others are still as they were – but we hear your feedback and we have a lot of notes for further future updates!)
  
• Phone messages: Click to get new message while texting in the phone – yay, no more waiting if you read fast or are not that interested in messaging
  
• Phone notifications: We added notifications to the phone when a new contact is added or a new text message arrives. This helps to not miss important stuff
  
  
  (See the red and blue dots? Let me introduce you: The new notifications!)
  
  
• Resolutions/Window Mode: We added the ability to change the resolutions and window mode. For those that might notice some lags, please try to reduce the resolution
  
• Razer Chroma integration: If you own Razer Chroma devices, their RGB lighting will adapt according to the game scenes. Fancy!

We want you to have as much fun with our game as possible. Therefore, thank you once again for all the feedback we continue to receive from you. It's really valuable to us, and we read and analyze everything we get. Promise! ❤️

Have an adventurous day!

We keep improving our game.
- We've implemented a new feature on random orbs that make them more attractive.
- We calibrated the difficulty of the final levels.

Thanks for playing Spiriat!
