Hello,

哈喽！

We're back with another alpha for our next slab of content - the Boss Rush Update!

我们带来的新的Alpha更新！引入新的内容——Boss Rush！（Boss连战，细胞万神殿）

How does it work?它是怎么样的？

There is a new area, accessible through the basement door in Prisoner's Quarters where you access the Training Room and the Tailor - one you've gone through the basement door just follow the corridor until you come to the third door with the red boss head next to it.

新增了一个新的区域，在牢房训练室和服装室那一块可以看到，你只需要跟着地毯走，找到第三扇红色boss的门就可以进去啦。

Through this door, you'll find another 4 doors, leading to 4 different stages where you will fight:

进入门后，你会找到另外四个门，指向四个不同的战斗场合：

3 bosses back-to-back

Boss三连战

3 bosses back-to-back with modifiers

改版Boss三连战

（译注：不确定该怎么表述这个，意思是给Boss加入了新的行动规划，更新日志后文有提到。）

5 bosses back-to-back

5 bosses back-to-back with modifiers

五连战的版本

What are modifiers, I hear you ask? Basically we've given the bosses even more ways to kick your ass. Think extra limbs, healing powers, buddies to help them kill you - all the good stuff!

什么是改版？简单来说，我们给Boss增加了新的暴揍玩家的行为方式。比如额外的四肢（？？），治愈的能力，杀人小弟——一堆好东西！

The bosses are randomly selected from the following tiers:

Boss们将从以下敌人池子中随机选择：

Tier 1 - Concierge, Conjunctivius, Mama Tick

1号池子：看守者、肿胀眼魔、蜱虫之母。

Tier 2 - Time Keeper, The Giant, The Scarecrow

2号池子：时光守护者、巨人、稻草人。

Tier 3 - Hand of the King, The Servants (just the final fight, not the entire tower!), The Queen

3号池子：国王之手、仆从（只有最终战斗，不包括追逐战）、王后。

Spoiler Boss is not available in the alpha and likely won't be available on release BUT it should™ arrive later.

剧透Boss在目前的A测还没有加入，不过这大概应该可能会后续加入。

The stages with 3 bosses back-to-back will pit you against one Tier 1 boss, then one Tier 2 and finally, you guessed it, one Tier 3. Simple!

Boss三连战的战斗场合会让你先打一个1号池子的随机Boss，再来一个2号池子的随机Boss，你没猜错，最后是一个3号池子的随机Boss，这很简单吧！

The stages with 5 bosses follow a similar path, but here you'll be fighting two Tier 1 bosses, then two Tier 2s, then one Tier 3. Not quite so simple...

Boss五连战的战斗场合，你需要打两个1号池子和两个2号池子，最后打一个3号池子。这就没那么简单了……

NOTE: For testing purposes, in the alpha you will have access to all bosses regardless of your progress in your current save. In the official release of the update, the bosses that you encounter in the Boss Rush will only be bosses that you have personally encountered at least once in-game.

备注：为了测试，在A测版本中你会无论有没有见过，都可以与任何Boss见面。在后续的正式版本中，将只会遇见你已经在日常游戏中见过的家伙。

There is a choice between Brutality, Tactics and Survival at the start of each stage - choosing one will automatically give you stats focused on the one you chose, and give you a choice of relevant builds in the following room.

在每次挑战的开始，你可以在三种属性红紫绿中选择你想要专注的一项——选择的时候就会给予你该属性的专精，后续也将围绕此进行成长。

New unlockables新的解锁

There are more goodies to unlock as you progress through the stages, if you can!

这里有很多的新东西供你解锁！如果你做得到的话！

New stuff will unlock depending on the length (3 bosses or 5 bosses), the mode (Normal bosses or Modified bosses), the difficulty (0+BC, 3+BC or 5BC) and your ability to flawless the entire run or not.

新的道具将根据你的情况解锁：长度（3连战还是5连战）、模式（有没有选择增强型Boss）、难度（0细胞，3细胞、5细胞）、以及你是否无伤。

Yep, the 5 boss 5BC Flawless is going to be a bit hard to get!

是der，无伤五细胞增强五连战大概有亿点点难！

（以下均为非官方译名，仅提供在官中发布之前的参考）

Weapon - Glyph of Peril (Tactics/Survival): A ranged attack with 7 attacks in its combo. The more health that you're missing, the longer the pause between each attack in the combo. So don't get hit!

武器——险境符文（紫绿）：一个总共拥有7连击的远程武器。你扣血越多，你能造成的连段就越多，小心别被打！

Critical hits will start after the third hit of the combo.

在第三段之后，将会开始暴击。

（意思是要控低血量，实测它攻速非常快，抬手收手非常舒服。绿流半血，即死灵法术的血线能打到第四段的暴击，挺强的。在30%血量，也就是依然有一血保护的安全线的时候，足够打满七次连击。以目前版本来说，我给这个武器一个高度评价，非常好用。）

Skill - Taunt: Taunt an enemy, making it relentessly pursue you for 20 seconds. In doing so, it drops its guard, so it takes 75% more damage from melee attacks during its pursuit.

技能——嘲讽（红）：嘲讽一名敌人，让它盯着你20秒。在此效果期间他会失去防御，所以在这期间它会受到75%的额外近战伤害。

I'll let you discover exactly what taunts the Beheaded uses, but I don't think you'll be disappointed...

大家可以自己去看看细胞人是怎么嘲讽的，不过我觉得肯定不会让人失望。

Mutation - Wish: The next weapon you pick up is legendary. Once chosen it cannot be removed (like the YOLO mutation).

变异——许愿（无色）：你捡起的下一个武器将会是传说武器，使用过一次之后就不可移除（类似死而复生）

Skins: There are 6 new skins to discover, with various barbarian/boss themes.

皮肤：增加了6个新皮肤，包括一些野蛮人主题和Boss主题。

Customisable statue: You've got a fan! They're making a grand statue of you as tribute, and as you progress through the Boss Rush, you'll be able to add shiny new elements to it. Such humility!

可自定的雕像：你有了粉丝！他们为你量身制作了一个雕像。当你不断通关各种难度的Boss Rush之后，你会得到一些可以用来装饰的亮闪闪的好东西！真谦虚！

New/updates legendary affixes新增和改进传说词条

We're also adding more legendary affixes to flesh out our last update. These are:

我们增加了一些新的传说武器专属词条，内容如下：

Spartan Sandals: Super Bump - bumps stuff even further

斯巴达草鞋：超级击退——击退会更加远。

Oil Sword: Oil on Kill (again, quite self explanatory: spreads oil on the ground on kill)

油腻之剑：杀死敌人会在周围地面上泼油。

Flint: Instant Charge - all attacks are fully charged without needing to hold the button

燧石：无限蓄力——所有的攻击都默认为蓄力完毕！

Katana: Deflect Bullets - all uncharged attacks deflect bullet (but not grenades)

武士刀：反弹子弹——所有的不蓄力攻击都可以反弹子弹（不过不能砍炸弹）

Killing Deck: Random Effect - every card applies a random debuff on targets (any kind of DoT, crowd controls, etc. with a few exceptions that wouldn't make sense like item-specific effects)

致命牌组：随机特效——每一张卡牌都会随机附带一个Debuff（伤害性的dubuff、击晕之类的都有，不包括一些其他装备的专属效果）

Money Shooter: Pay to Win - refund the shot's cost if it kills a target + innate super pierce. Can trigger multiple times if a shot kills several enemies.

金钱射手：充钱制胜！——钱会在杀死敌人的时候返还+全穿。如果一发子弹射死了很多敌人，效果也可以叠加。

Knockback Shield: Super Bump

猛推盾：超级击退。

Wave of Denial: Super Bump

阻隔波：超级击退。

Pollo Power: Miracle of Life - eggs hatch into chicks that attack nearby enemies

小鸡之力：生命奇迹——蛋会孵化出小鸡，攻击周围的敌人。

（译注：新武器符文暂时没有传说词条，嘲讽暂时是8秒电击词条。）

How to access the alpha:

如何进入Alpha测试版：

Back up your save first. The alpha shouldn't affect your saves but better to be safe than sorry. If the worst happens then there’s a save restore hack detailed here:

备份你的存档。Alpha版本一般不会影响主存档，不过备份一下总能防止坏事发生。

（原文此处给了一个早期版本的链接，里面包括如何弥补炸存档的事情）

Then follow these instructions to access the alpha:

然后按照以下步骤：

Go to your Steam game library.

打开你的Steam游戏库。

Right click on Dead Cells and click "properties".

右键Dead Cells游戏，选择“属性”。

Select the tab "Betas".

选择“测试版”

In the first dropdown box select "Alpha - Not for the faint hearted".

在第一个弹窗中选择：Alpha

Click close and wait for the upload to finish downloading.

关闭窗口，等待游戏自动更新。

Start playing.

玩儿。

As always, everything is still being tweaked according to feedback. So some things may break, have strange interactions or just straight up crash the game.

然后一如既往，A测期间的内容都等待各位的积极反馈。有些东西可能被玩坏了，可能有点诡异，也可能会搞崩你的游戏。

If you want to leave feedback you can do so in the comments here, or on our official Discord (link at the bottom of the post) - there are two channels called update31-alpha-discussion and update31-alpha-feedback specifically for these conversations, so please use them!

如果你有什么建议的话可以在此处或者我们的官方Discord上面反馈（原文此处有链接，阿B经常吞链接我就不放出来了，有兴趣的可以去Steam公告里面找）这里有两条反馈频道，一条是用于讨论新版本的，一条是用于新版本的游玩反馈意见，欢迎大家积极使用！

Bug reports can be sent to us with the following form to help us collect all information on bugs and crashes in one place, this helps us to fix them quicker! 

有关各种Bug和游戏崩溃的反馈可以让我们收集更多信息，来帮助我们更好的处理和修复！

We have some known issues already:

我们已知有一些问题，请注意：

Long load time after the Queen. It'll be fixed in the next patch.

在王后之后，载入时间异常长，这个之后会修复。

Glyph of Peril weapon lacks polish.

新武器险境符文没有波兰语。（？？）

The exit text when you win a run should not be "Do you want to abandon the run?", obviously.

当你赢下一局游戏之后的提示语显然不应该是“你想放弃这局游戏吗”

The alpha is only available on Windows, not Mac or Linux - we have a problem which should be fixed for beta.

目前A测只适用WINDOWS系统，不适配Mac和Linux——我们遇到了一个问题，应该能在Beta的时候修好。

Full patchnotes are coming tomorrow, but everything's basically already in this post anyway.

完整的更新补丁明天会发布，不过本篇公告已经把该说的重要事情都说完了。

Hope you enjoy the new mode, we'll gather feedback for a week or two then come back with the beta :)

希望大家能够享受新的模式，我们将会等待一或者两星期的游玩反馈，再进入Beta。

Cheers,

Matt, EE & MT
