Heya! So, some of you might have noticed that some disused old subforums have been removed and others added to the digital world. This is an ongoing project, we may be adding more places in the world to explore.
The consensus seems to be that there is an excess of specific dungeons in the digital world, while more generic areas are less common or are otherwise barren or exclusive. So, to start with, there have been 3 new areas added.
- Spears of Megiddo (Western Flatlands)
An island chain off the Southwest of the continent. Volcanic activity is very abundant here - full of constantly erupting volcanoes. Despite the hazards that come with living in such a place, the rich fertile soils have sprouted much life here. Furthermore, the volcanoes have much secrets within them - from caves containing valuable resources to a rich island based civilization of dragon and beast digimon.
- Shining Sea (Northern Prominence)
What used to be a vast inland sea between the West and Northern regions of the continent. One day in the distant past, the water no longer came and the sea quickly dried up, revealing a dry but beautiful white desert that glistens in the sunlight. There are no trees, but in their place are tall, grand crystals that glow at night, radiating a mysterious power. A very eerie but pretty part of the digital world.
- Old Terminus (Core Region).
Deep in the underground of Terminus City lies the ruins of the civilization that came before. Little is known about it, as history has turned to legend and the secrets it holds has been forgotten. However, recent events have rendered it open again, and many have made this area their home. Old Terminus also holds the gateway to an unfinished prototype of the digital world - never completed, but still provides shelter and resources to those that lurk in the area.
Think of Kowloon from Cyber Sleuth mixed with Old Aperture from Portal 2 as to what this place looks like.
To encourage activity in these new places, for the next 3 months (until 30th April 2018), all threads started before that date will receive double the usual thread completion bonus (so 1-2 pages becomes 1000 bits, 3-5 pages becomes 2000 bits, and 6+ pages becomes 3000 bits each).
There will also be some missions to look forward to in some of these regions, so keep an eye out.
