They believed the test players' response was not professional enough, causing many combat data to go uncollected, so a retest might be in order.
This time, they hope that those participating in the test will behave more professionally and, at the very least, not have embarrassing incidents where they're shot in the head as soon as they go online...]
Do Bionic Snails Dream of Electronic Trees: [!!! So you can see all our in-game performance? Admin, you don't have to execute us publicly like this!]
Alpha:[There's no need to despair. Actually, I thought you looked pretty cool when you took that crossbow arrow to the head. I've been in this gig for a while, and that's the first time I've seen someone catch an arrow with such precision.
Also, if possible, we suggest not to adopt any embarrassing pose like covering your crotch when you die...]
Lead Dove:[LOL, the official statement confirms we suck. Table flipping laughter.jpg]
Do Bionic Snails Dream of Electronic Trees:[Darn, stop laughing! That was simply a mistake. Can I get another chance? Admin, I promise I will definitely perform better this time! I won't embarrass myself again!]
Cono Cat Shark Dada: [Yes, give us another chance, I also want to be a good person sir!]
Invincible Tyrannosaurus Truck: [Cheche here also begging for a chance, dying and reviving after three days is too torturous, and gets lonely too, how about inviting more players.]
Alpha:[@Do Bionic Snails Dream of Electronic Trees, sorry, but this game promotes a hardcore + realistic theme for the MMORPG, and the death penalty is a significant part of the experience.
We don't want to create a game mode in which players can use their lives as consumables to overcome almost all challenges.
The development team conveys this idea to the player base, which is that you're in a real different world, and you should cherish your life just like the real inhabitants of another world.
Of course, we might implement some improvements later, but during this testing phase, you must strictly adhere to the game mode.
As for expanding the scale of testing, that's not up to me. But the production team decided to use an invitation system before the test started to prevent the testing environment from deteriorating.
Don't worry, though. I've already applied to the production team for a batch of free invitation codes.
If you have friends who want to play, let them fill out the test application, but I can't guarantee that they'll be approved.
A link to the application is attached below.]
Akuen:[Yay! Long live the admin! I'm gonna message my buddies right away!]
Lead Dove:[Pah, Akuen, you flatterer, always chasing skirt everywhere. This time get us a tall, muscular jock, we'll be relying on him in fights.]
Akuen:[Consider it done, just you watch.]
Alpha:[It's about time for me to finish work. This interaction with everyone ends here, the next test time will be announced in this group 10-30 minutes in advance.
In a while, we might consider enabling players to log in freely to the game as the dedicated test server has just been set up, we hope everyone can bear with it until the stress test is completed.
Any suggestions can be put forward in the feedback area of the forums.
Finally, thank you all for choosing "Real Different World". I wish you a smooth gaming career!]
Lead Dove:[See off respected admin!]
And then ensued a string of echo chambers.
Murphy quietly spectated in stealth mode but didn't participate in the subsequent discussions among the little players about the current plot. After confirming they had no more questions, the vampire then exited the forum.
He stroked his chin in the broken shack in Morlan Village, finding Gebao's seemingly esoteric but actually valuable question.
In his view, there was no problem with players turning into light particles and disappearing after death. But to the other inhabitants of "another world", this would certainly be strange. Now that the number of players is still small, it doesn't matter. But what if in the future the number of players reaches thousands or tens of thousands? Even if Murphy exhausts all the excuses of being a Summoner, it would be hard to explain.
What kind of Summoner are you, capable of summoning tens of thousands of individuals from "another world" at once? Are you a Summoner? Or a tour guide of "another world"?
Vampire, watch what gibberish you're spouting!
But, how to solve the problem of corpses?
"Ugh"
Just as Murphy was deep in thought, a painful groan from nearby startled him.
The vampire glanced towards the corner of the room, where a hapless girl tied up tightly by Maxim lay. He couldn't contain his laughter.
Dang, I was so absorbed chatting with the little players that I forgot about her.
Lucky I noticed in time, otherwise this poor devil who just escaped from the clutches of the witch-hunters would've suffocated to death.
What a sin it would be, even though I'm also quite unfortunate, but seeing an actual NPC being more unfortunate than me, the pressure somehow just vanishes.
"I'll untie you, promise not to bite me."
Murphy knelt down and spoke to the girl who was staring at him fiercely, clearly trying to hide the fear in her eyes.
After she gave a slight nod, the vampire untied the rope from her mouth.
The rope was tied so tight that it left bruises on her fair cheeks, giving the scene a rather adult vibe.
The girl had short, fiery red hair, kept neatly by herself, her face was pretty and radiant with youth. Her fair skin suggested she wasn't a peasant from the village. While her dress was not lavish, it had a scholarly feel, around her neck hung a unique pendant with a gear-shaped tiny copper plate at the end.
