While Chu Guang was doing archaeology with his diary in his arms, the official forum of "Wasteland OL" in another world was very lively.
The seven players who died in the battle successively went offline, and almost all of them logged on to the official website at the first time to bring the first-hand battle reports from the front line to the cloud players and people squatting on the forum.
This battle was much more intense than the previous one.
The total force of both sides exceeded a company, and various tactics of division and encirclement, fire suppression, surprise and counter-surprise were interspersed in it, which made almost all the players who participated in the battle shout that it was exciting and worth dying!
Especially at the end of the battle.
Fifty rockets covered the battlefield, and when the whistle sounded, everyone jumped out of the trenches and launched a charge. It was exaggerated and exaggerated, and even the cloud players on the forum were satisfied.
"Hahaha, lighting firecrackers is so cool, the other side must be confused, by the way, where did you learn this cool operation from?"
"But the most amazing thing is that the Mosquito's rockets can actually be used? Didn't you say that the flamethrower this guy made last time didn't have enough chamber pressure, and he didn't install a backfire valve, so he burned himself?"
"Goblin technology has avenged its previous shame. (Funny)"
"The one-kilogram warhead is still too small! If there is a chance to make a hot air balloon, directly put 300 pounds of bombs, it will definitely work!"
"Hot air balloons are probably difficult, they will be a sitting duck in the sky, but you can try to make an engine and make a propeller aircraft. Aren't Mini-Max series aircraft made of wood? If you try hard, you will definitely be punished!"
"Let's build a tank, tanks are still useful, but I heard from you that there are either cities or anti-tank trees near the resurrection point, it's probably not good enough."
"Are you really talking about games? I don't think it's right. (Funny)"
"Ahem, we are discussing plastic models, plastic models!"
Although the post has been going off track, as new news is released, the topic is quickly straightened back.
Whether it is making suggestions or just talking about it.
Whether it is the players who really believe in this game and have made reservations, or the people who are just looking for fun, what everyone cares about most is the outcome of this war.
Although there have been successive victories so far and everything is under control, what if these closed beta players are not strong, or those predators have a backup plan?
If they lose, it will be a disaster.
After all, the official said that if the challenge of the "Winter's Wrath" expansion pack fails, the game server will be shut down indefinitely and will be put online after re-debugging.
As for how long it will be shut down, it is estimated that only the planner knows.
Fortunately, the enthusiastic netizens did not have to wait for long.
As a "seriously injured" little player was forced to go offline and brought the victory of the war back to the forum, the stone hanging in everyone's heart was finally removed.
Makabazi: "I was killed by my teammates! But it doesn't matter, epic victory! 56 predators, including elite monsters and bosses, were all surrounded and annihilated! Hahaha, it was so cool to kill! I killed at least three... No, four for sure!"
Quit Smoking: "Then why did you die? (rolling eyes)"
Crow: "Weak chicken! Hahahaha! If you die, you are a loser! Hahaha! o(*≧▽≦)ツ"
Makabazi: "Fuck! How dare you say that to me? You didn't even participate in the battle! (angry)"
Crow: "Hehe, as everyone knows, beautiful girls don't fight. I'll play with you guys when I save enough money to buy power armor. @乛?乛@"
Quit Smoking: "Then what are you still playing for! If you don't want to play, give me your account! T.T"
What can I do with you? "Laugh, fighting is fine, but you can't even get a hundred people together, so you call it fighting? Not to mention far away, there are two high schools in our area, and there are always three to five thousand people in a casual fight. Later, the county was alarmed, so they didn't fight. Otherwise, it would definitely be on the news."
Irena: "Three to five thousand people are fine, is your school called Linglan Boys' High School? By the way, how many dishes are there in the cafeteria? Don't just drink the water used to wash the pot, eat something at least. (Funny)"
Ye Shi: "I'm dying of laughter, I can't take it anymore, hahahaha."
Elf King Fugui: "Hey, Irena is also here to OB? (Funny)"
Irena: "You two wait, I'm going to hold a grudge. (`Д′*)9"
Canyon Runaway Mole: "Scared. (Funny)"
Every time a forum pet comes out, it takes up all the fun for everyone. The whole forum is full of joy, as lively as a festival.
But this guy is like a mole, he will leave after being ridiculed by everyone, without leaving a single moment, and does not give others a chance to ridicule him.
Perhaps in his world, he should be fighting against some dark forces.
And those who "ridicule" and "slander" him are undoubtedly the moderator's smurfs.
Quit Smoking: "By the way, where's Trash? Why didn't I see him show off?"
Irena: "Yeah, yeah, where's his slide? (funny)"
Night Ten: "Tsk, it's embarrassing to think of this guy. Didn't the manager forbid us to light a fire to keep warm? This guy was shivering in the trench, and afraid of falling asleep, so he told jokes to the people next to him. But maybe the jokes were too cold, no one was amused by him, and he finally fainted from the cold. We didn't wake him up after the whole battle, and later he was carried back on a cart as a wounded soldier. He's really a brother."
Picking up trash level 99: "Fuck, do you think I want to! I tried several times, but it showed that the character status was abnormal, and I couldn't connect at all! When I finally got online, I was lying in the incubator!"
Night Ten: "Anyway, it's embarrassing. (funny)"
Picking up trash level 99: "@#@%!"
WC really has mosquitoes: "Hahahaha, I'm the MVP of the game! Just ask who else? (proud)"
Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes: "Big Boss 666, Goblin technology is invincible!"
Debt Eyes: "Stop joking, I counted the bodies, there are only three killed in the explosion, and I'm not sure if it was your rocket that killed them."
Night Ten: "Hahaha, the atmosphere group is confirmed! But to be honest, the power of Mosquito's weapon is not very good, but it is still powerful enough to bluff people. A volley of rockets went over and the opposite flag was directly turned white."
WC Really Mosquito: "Gan! You are the atmosphere group! Your whole family is the atmosphere group! (Angry)"
Teng Teng: "Don't quarrel, everyone is great 0.0."
Lao Bai: "These idiots are not quarreling, they have a good relationship."
Teng Teng: "Is it the kind of relationship between teenagers?"
Lao Bai: "...How do you want me to answer."
After experiencing a refreshing battle just now, many players are still excited and can't wait to jump out of bed and do a hundred or eighty push-ups to vent.
But the body in reality is not as strong as in the game, and the senses of negative states are not weakened at all. Muscles start to fatigue after a little exercise, and those who forget to eat will suffer from hypoglycemia and dizziness.
It turns out that this is a rubbish game in reality, right?
Fang Chang: "Mole, did you follow the manager to the camp of the Blood Hand Clan?"
Canyon Runaway Mole: "I did, but the main force was wiped out by us in the park. I didn't fight when I went there. I just followed the plot and then searched for loot in the base. I'm not bragging. This game is really detailed, from the dungeon where the prisoners are held to the rooms of the looters... Tsk tsk, I can only say that sending these things to the gallows is really a bargain for them."
Night Ten: "What's the situation? Tell me in detail."
Canyon Runaway Mole: "What do I need to say? You can go and see it for yourself tomorrow. It's simply hell on earth. But this dungeon will probably not be refreshed again after it is cleared once. Even if there are looters nearby, they are probably self-employed. By the way, the looters in the tire factory have been dealt with, so the nearby map should be open, right? I see there are many landmarks worth exploring there, and I should be able to search out a lot of good things."
Fang Chang: "This wave is really cool. It should be fun to divide the spoils tomorrow."
Canyon Runaway Mole: "A technical question. Is your brick factory's budget enough to participate in the spoils auction?"
Fang Chang: "What are you thinking? If you can participate, why not just bid in a group?"
5,000 silver coins, there is indeed enough capital for a group bid.
It has been less than three days since the last auction. No one has much money in their pockets. The settlement of war rewards will be after the auction. This time, it is estimated that many things will be unsold.
Canyon Runaway Mole: "That's right. You don't even need 5,000 silver. 3,000 silver can easily buy 50 pieces of equipment. Oh, I can't afford it."
Ye Shi: "It's uncomfortable. If there is a bank, I will buy a set of power armor in installments, and a fully equipped +14 automatic rifle."
Fang Chang: "Dreaming is still good."
In fact, no matter how it is divided, it will definitely not be a loss after this battle.
Last time, they faced a small team led by a centurion, and the average profit distributed to each person was more than 10 silver coins.
This time, not only did they wipe out 5 teams, but they also destroyed the enemy's stronghold.
Is it reasonable not to give 50 or 60 silver coins, or 100 or 80 contributions?
At least 50 silver coins, no less!
Canyon Runaway Mole: "Isn't anyone curious? B2 floor is about to be opened? What do you think will be there?"
Ye Shi: "I have a feeling that there will be a big update, it should be Alpha 0.5 version."
Fang Chang: "I listen to your words, it's like listening to your words."
Lao Bai: "This feeling is useful, it's not useless."
Ye Shi: "Fuck! Then you analyze it!"
Fang Chang: "Let me tell you the conclusion directly. It is expected that the next stage of updates will focus on two directions. One is the system of the game itself, and the other is the content of the game."
Canyon Runaway Mole: "What do you think, Fang Chang?"
Fang Chang was very satisfied with this shout. At present, the two most popular technical players in the forum are himself and Mole.
After being flattered like this, he even typed a lot faster.
"Let's talk about the game system first. There has been a lot of calls on the forum to develop a simpler attribute interface. But in fact, you newcomers may not know that at the beginning, this game didn't even have an attribute interface, let alone a level setting. It was so realistic that all elements had to be explored by yourself!"
"But soon, we found that each player's initial attributes were different. Some were obviously stronger, some were obviously more intuitive, and some were faster. Later, I asked the planner and found out that players have two concepts: attributes and levels!"
"It's said to be for realism, but being too real is actually a burden. Under our strong suggestion, the planning team held a few days of meetings and finally integrated the attribute and level settings into the game in the form of data. The attribute panels you see now were actually made later. They didn't exist before."
"Then there is currency. At the beginning, there was no concept of currency at all. The rewards for cutting trees were all settled with contribution points. It was probably in the alpha 0.3 version that the task system and economic system were greatly changed, and we had the silver coins we use now, as well as the later citizenship level and private territory concepts."
"In fact, players who have been playing all the time can feel that the rules of Wasteland OL are being improved little by little. The planners are also exploring the levers between reality and gameplay."
"The currency system has been developed and perfected. I guess the development team should find a way to improve the players' operation interface in the game, such as making the accumulation of gene sequence development progress more intuitive? It would be best to add a progress bar to the "skill proficiency" so that you can feel more fulfilled when you are playing, right?"
"Let's talk about the game content! This part is also what I am most looking forward to!"
"Many people should have noticed that this time we captured the Blood Hand Clan's stronghold. Not only did we take over the equipment of these predators, but we also liberated a large number of prisoners held by the predators!"
"Most of these people are survivors persecuted by predators. They are not just pale names. They have different identities. Some may come from shelters, and some may come from other survivors' strongholds... For example, the Brown Farm we have been to, or even Beth Street and Boulder City in the setting."
"In their hometown, they may have their own social relations, or even have their own relatives somewhere in this wasteland."
"The identities of these NPCs may become clues to unlock more branch plots for us, and how to properly place them and establish relationships with these NPCs will also be a new test for our "virtual community"!"
"So I boldly speculate that with the arrival of winter. The next expansion pack may revolve around this proposition!"
Fang Chang's views have been recognized by many people.
Including technical players such as Canyon Escape Mole.
At this stage of the game, the number of players has far exceeded that of NPCs. If the number of people doubles several times, it will obviously be difficult to complete all interactions relying only on the manager and his assistant.
If the ambition of Wasteland OL is to create a game world close to reality and build a human-computer friendly virtual community in the virtual field, then the next expansion pack will definitely revolve around the relationship between NPCs and players.
And these poor people who were rescued are undoubtedly a good opportunity.
There are also those survivors who have escaped the harassment of the looters nearby. They will surely be grateful to their righteous army.
Fang Chang felt that he had completely figured out the plan.
Thinking of this, he sat in front of the computer with sleepy eyes, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up in joy.
I am worthy of it!
It's really awesome!
