30 words direct answer
At present, it is not possible to write "recommended to reopen" as "must reopen".
Detailed description
The official stated position is that "the old files can be played if the game is not updated, but it is recommended to re-open it to get a complete new experience." Before the official patch notes are released, this is just a description of the level, not a confirmed term. Therefore, the answer is an enumeration of conditions: if you want to fully experience 1.0, choose the new file; if you want to retain the cultivation results, first back up and use the old file; if you want both, use Global Palbox to compromise (new file + selected Pal transfer); private server players first ask the server owner about the import/export switch.
Judge your situation first
| what do you want to do now | Judgment method | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| Want to fully experience 1.0 | New files are given priority; important Pals are entered into the Global Palbox first, and transfer restrictions are checked after T0. | See transfer rules |
| I just want to keep the results of cultivation | Continue playing with old files; make a complete backup of the archive before going online (private servers also have world files and player files). | Watch 1.0 Hub |
| Want both (compromise) | New file + Global Palbox selected Pal transfer; special individuals are listed first and then checked. | See the compromise path |
| Play with friends or private servers | First ask the server owner whether import/export is enabled and when it will be upgraded, and then decide on your own file strategy. | See server list |
Operation sequence
| order | action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Complete backup before going online: save files for a single machine; backup world files, player files and configuration files for private servers. |
| 2 | List the Pals you want to keep, and mark them separately as ordinary individuals, highly cultivated individuals, and special sources. |
| 3 | High-value Pals are first deposited into the Global Palbox; private servers first confirm the current values of the two switches. |
| 4 | After T0, first read the archive terms of the official patch notes before taking irreversible actions such as deleting files. |
Common misunderstandings
| Misunderstanding | why to avoid |
|---|---|
| Read "recommended to reopen" as "must reopen" | The official position is currently just a media spin-off level, and the official patch notes have not yet been released. |
| Doing irreversible operations without backup | Backup is the only fallback point before deleting files, overwriting, or mass transfers. |
| Transferring a large number of special individuals at one time | The transfer behavior of special marks and sources must be checked one by one after T0. |
| Replace version status with old videos or rumors | The data status before and after 1.0 is different. Please check the version icon on the site first. |
