Q: Why is the opening time of this year's anniversary ceremony later than before?
Under normal circumstances, the start time of the anniversary celebration event is around August 10th. This year, due to adjustments in the development plan, we have canceled a play system under development that combines research and development with various functional components. This has affected other gameplay and activities to some extent, so the start time will be slightly delayed. As a result, we will be providing server-wide compensation and benefits.
Expected distribution: 1 million Skill Points, 10 million Lazarus Units, 100 Ascension Neural Compilers, 100 nanites, 100 Amethyst Cones.
Q: What will happen if there are problems during the Voyage Ceremony event?
First of all, Concord sincerely thank the pilots for your active participation and steadfast support in this voyage ceremony. The system of the voyage ceremony is very complex, and the preparatory team has conducted comprehensive preliminary tests to ensure the smooth progress of the event and to try to avoid any unexpected situations.
However, experienced clones know that any carefully planned event may face unforeseen challenges. We solemnly promise that if unforeseen circumstances arise that require the event to be suspended, the preparatory team will take immediate action: first, the pilots' data will be restored; second, the exciting moments of the event will be made into a video and uploaded to YouTube for everyone to review; third, all registration fees for participating corporations will be fully refunded. At the same time, high compensation rewards will be given to members of corporations who are unable to participate in the event due to unexpected in-game situations, to express sincere apologies. In addition, compensation will also be prepared for all pilots.
If the voyage ceremony can be successfully held, the joy of this success will also be shared with all pilots on the server, and additional rewards will be prepared for all pilots on the server to thank everyone for their enthusiastic participation and contribution to the gaming community.
Once again, thank you for the understanding and support of all pilots. The preparatory team will continue to work tirelessly to bring you a better gaming experience.
