大家好！

　　自開始開放測試以來又過去了一周，反饋信息仍源源不斷。我們很高興地看到，最近的大部分改動(dòng)都得到了很好的反饋，我們可以對一些更細(xì)微的地方進(jìn)行改進(jìn)。在介紹今天更新補(bǔ)丁的改動(dòng)之前，請注意到：

　　如上周所述，我們正在完成觀察者更新的開發(fā)。這意味著：

• 我們不會再更改游戲文本，發(fā)布前所有更改都盡可能少

• 我們?nèi)匀挥袝r(shí)間修復(fù)崩潰bug，進(jìn)行平衡更改和其他調(diào)整

• 改動(dòng)較大的變更會放到未來的更新（下平衡個(gè)補(bǔ)丁：魔像更新）

　　當(dāng)前的更新主要用于修復(fù)已識別的錯(cuò)誤和剩余的小平衡問題。我們還有一個(gè)星期的時(shí)間才能鎖定所有內(nèi)容，因此即使我們現(xiàn)在無法實(shí)施您的建議，我們?nèi)匀豢梢詫⑺鼈兗{入將來的更新。請記住，我們在 Steam 上有一個(gè)子論壇，用于提供開放測試版反饋。

　　關(guān)于更新本身，今天的主要話題是外交和世界地圖AI。

• 在上周的更新中，我們對威脅系統(tǒng)進(jìn)行了幾次更新，以調(diào)整AI對玩家施加的壓力。本周，我們通過調(diào)整幾個(gè)修飾符來繼續(xù)這項(xiàng)工作，以減少它們活躍時(shí)可能發(fā)生的激進(jìn)擺動(dòng)。我們還在開發(fā)一個(gè)總體系統(tǒng)，以更好地管理來自人工智能的威脅和壓力。

• 在世界地圖上，我們將優(yōu)劣勢系統(tǒng)納入了難度級別。設(shè)置為“困難”／“野蠻”難度的AI勢力將在戰(zhàn)斗中獲得次要優(yōu)勢／主要優(yōu)勢。我們希望這意味著難度更高的AI現(xiàn)在能夠更好地對抗侵?jǐn)_和古代奇跡，這會使它們在競爭中處于更好的排名，對玩家構(gòu)成更大的威脅。

　　我們?nèi)匀辉诮鉀QAI在世界地圖上發(fā)動(dòng)攻擊時(shí)自動(dòng)逃跑的問題，如果你有這樣的游戲存檔，當(dāng)你按下回合結(jié)束時(shí)，你覺得AI應(yīng)該會攻擊時(shí)它卻逃跑了，請你通過電子郵件發(fā)送給我們?logs@triumphstudios.com。

　　再次感謝您的所有反饋，感謝大家，觀察者更新正在很好地形成！游戲版本： V1.004.0000.81627

二、觀察者更新補(bǔ)丁目前（三周合并版本）完整說明

【譯者注】這部分不專門翻譯了，后面可能還有改動(dòng)，感興趣的可以看前兩周的更新內(nèi)容：

Research Scaling
The way knowledge costs are determined for skills in Tomes has changed. Instead of the tier of the skill determining the cost, the knowledge cost is now based on the amount of Tomes you have collected so far. Every new Tome you unlock will have increased knowledge cost of skills compared to the Tome before, regardless of what Tier the Tome or the skill is.

• The general knowledge cost of tome skills is increased, especially near the mid and late game Tomes.

• The base knowledge cost of skills for tomes are as follows:

• 1st Tome, general research and cultural research: 250

• 2nd Tome: 400

• 3rd Tome: 600

• 4th Tome: 800

• 5th Tome: 1100

• 6th Tome: 1500

• 7th Tome: 1900

• 8th Tome: 2400

• 9th Tome: 3000

• 10th Tome: 3600

• 11th Tome: 4300

• 12th Tome: 5000

• Every Tome afterwards has an additional +1000 knowledge cost per skill.

• Individual skills in a Tome now have a skill level (Adept, Intermediate or Expert). This adds a modifier on the knowledge cost. Different skills inside of a tome can still differ in cost as they did previously.

• Changed Tome Tier unlocking. Instead of needing 2 tomes of the previous tier, you just need a certain number of tomes of any tier. This means that players can choose more lower level tomes without slowing down their progress towards higher level tomes.

• Tier II - 2 Tomes of any Tier

• Tier III - 4 Tomes of any Tier

• Tier IV - 6 Tomes of any Tier

• Tier V - 8 Tomes of any Tier

• Tier 3 tomes now require 3 affinity points to be unlocked.

Magic Victory Rework
The new Magic Victory Rework focuses on the binding of Golden Ancient Wonders to eventually cast the Age of Affinity Spells. By using Ancient Wonders the Victory Condition becomes more active and makes it different from the Expansion Victory.

• Upon selecting your first tier 3 tome, a new global research skill appears "Bind Gold Ancient Wonder"

• It's a sustained strategic spell that must target an annexed golden ancient wonder in your empire.

• While bound, provides research bonus, but more important of all, a number of them are needed to cast the Age of Affinity spell.

• The Age of Affinity spell appears when you first unlock your Tier 5 tome, in the same place as the Binding spell.

• You can channel it while having enough bindings, but if you lose enough bindings during channeling the spell will be canceled.

• You lose a binding when your wonder or the city it's attached to gets occupied or changes ownership.

• Global Spells are a separate Research pick, not part of the three randomly drawn ones and can be started/paused at any time once it becomes available.

• The amount of Golden Ancient Wonders required scales based on the size of the map

Summon & Casting Changes
We've added a system to limit how many spells can be actually launched each turn, as well as tightened the rules about where units can be summoned.

• Summoning Spells can now only be targeted on cells next to your City, your Ruler or your Heroes.(previously they could be targeted on any visible hex)

• Added a Spell Slot system that limits the number of spells that the player can prepare without actually casting them. This prevents the player from banking up a lot of spells, only to cast them all at once.

• Starting Casting Points increased from 30 to 45.

• Changed Casting Point cost of Combat spells to make it easier to cast higher tier spells and have casting points left for other spells and to make it so casting many low tier spells less free. Mana costs have stayed the same.

• Tier 0: Increased from 5 to 10

• Tier 1: Increased from 10 to 15

• Tier 2: Increased from 15 to 20

• Tier 3: Increased from 20 to 25

• Tier 4: Stays at 30

• Tier 5: Decreased from 40 to 35

• Tier 6: Decreased from 50 to 40

• Tier 7: Decreased from 60 to 50

• Tier 8: Decreased from 80 to 65

• Tier 9: Decreased from 100 to 80

• Several World Map spells have been made more consistent. They have their damage or other effectiveness increased while being slightly harder to cast repeatedly. Making for fewer but more impactful actions.

Map Improvements
We’re tackling several elements of the Map Generation that we’ve seen the community provide feedback on. The focus for these improvements will be on the Underground Experience, but we’ve touched up the overall Map Generation as well.

• Reworked Map Generation

• Renamed Player Distance to Relative Map Size

• Added a new Very Large setting which has increased distance between players and larger total map size.

• Changed the Continents generation to allow for more varied maps, and small islands to form in the water.

• Cities can now annex Provinces on the opposite layer through Underground Passages. This is possible when provinces on both sides of a Underground Passage are annexed.

• Excavating no longer spawns a roaming stack of monsters that follow you. You can now uncover infestations and guarded nodes instead.

• Generally AI rulers should initially act more threatened and hostile.
