Comments below the official website announcement:
Tail: "Throne! (*/ω＼*)"
Quit Smoking: "!!! What?! The closed beta qualification has been issued again?! What's going on?! w(゜Д゜)w "
Night Ten: "Damn, no way, you don't have a little red dot again?!"
Lao Bai: "Hahahaha, brother Quit Smoking, you are too ridiculous."
Spare someone under the knife: "Brother Quit Smoking is really pitiful. The second batch of reservations I ordered have already been played."
Quit Smoking: "T.T"
WC really has mosquitoes: "Speaking of which, this time it's awesome. They actually released 100 places. The 10 extra places released in the last batch haven't entered the game yet, right?"
Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes: "It seems to be true. That batch of players should be online at 6 o'clock tonight."
What can I do with my grandpa: "Haha, 100 places? I don't believe you! Only fools would make reservations. The 100 places drawn must be fake."
Sisi: "No way? I won the lottery."
Tail: "Tail too! (*/ω＼*)"
Quitting: "Storm crying."
The announcement was just released a few seconds ago, and no one had time to read the entire announcement. Almost everyone rushed down to post comments after reading the first line.
In addition to posting comments, there were people who fainted in the water.
For example, Quitting, this time he failed to win the reservation qualification again, which was really miserable. However, he was not the only one who failed to win the lottery. There were more than 900 people who lost a few cute little ones on the blacklist from more than 1,000 reservation players.
If you are not a high-quality human user who is marked by the background to win the lottery, the winning rate of the normal lottery may be less than one-tenth.
If you can win the lottery, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are a lucky guy.
After comforting Quitting, the people who didn't get the first floor hurried back to take a closer look at what was written in the announcement.
After reading it, I was instantly stunned by the huge amount of information.
The expansion pack is over!
The limited title of "Winter Warrior" is issued!
Special in-game props that integrate attribute interface, task bar, and map functions!
And the B2 floor of the shelter is open!
Wow.
If this were replaced by some games, it would be enough to update until the end of the year!
Irena: "Shivering in the cold winter is fine, I think only the garbage picker would shiver. (funny)"
All the good names were taken by dogs: "Fuck! I haven't even logged into the game yet, and the expansion has already ended?!"
Kakarot from the future: "Shocked! A small detail, the attribute interface actually needs to be unlocked with money! Well, although it's not RMB."
Garbage Picker Level 99: "Money is a small matter, the key is contribution points! Hey, wait, it seems that my contribution points have been enough for a long time? Oh, then it's okay."
WC Really Mosquito: "You idiot, you bought the land, and the money was lent to you, pay it back quickly!"
Garbage Picker Level 99: "QAQ."
Macabazi: "Just right, I went online with the new version, perfect."
Stop bullshitting: "+1, hahaha, I hope the lake doesn't freeze, fishing is so fun."
The expansion ended very suddenly, but it was also expected by everyone.
After all, the big boss of the expansion has been killed, and everyone had a great time in the last battle, leaving behind a hairy suspense and a bunch of helpless captives, which is a lead-in for the next version.
Winter is coming.
The theme of the next expansion is probably survival, and the strengthening of life professional players has paved the way for the arrival of this moment.
It is more appropriate to end at this time.
After reading A Guang's "Developer Diary", the players on the forum are looking forward to the prop called VM and the new version of the gameplay.
But there is still a most critical question...
What about the B2 layer?
Why didn't this idiot planner mention it at all!
Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes: "Wait, where's the B2 floor?"
Quit Smoking: "Planners, wake up! You have updated an equipment and you are so embarrassed to show off. Where's the B2 floor? We want to know about the B2 floor!"
Spare Someone: "Who of you guys go online to check? Is the elevator to the B2 floor working? I seem to have seen an elevator in the resident hall!"
Night Ten: "Wipe it, I'm taking a professional course in the classroom now, and my helmet is still at home!"
Canyon Escape Mole: "Brother Meng, don't panic, I'll be back soon!!"
Fang Chang: "I'm going too, I'm at home too!"
Lao Bai: "Damn, you really don't have to go to work."
At three o'clock in the afternoon on weekdays, most players who have things to do during the day have not yet left work.
And those players who don't have to work have not logged off from the beginning, and probably don't know that the game has been updated.
After all, the official website of this game cannot be accessed from within the game, and it seems that every update will not kick off the online players.
Now the only people the netizens in the forum can count on are those who don't have to go to work or school during the day and happen to be online and stay at home.
After saying a few words, Fang Chang and Mole fell silent instantly. They probably met in the game.
As a result, more than 20 minutes passed, and there was still no news.
A group of people were waiting impatiently on the forum, and they almost cursed.
Lao Bai: "These two beasts are so slow."
Knife and Spare: "That's right! Why haven't they come back yet? I've been waiting for 29 minutes and 12 seconds!"
Ye Shi: "There must be some secret py transaction here."
Teng Teng: "? Show me. (Eyes)"
Ye Shi: "Huh!"
Canyon Runaway Mole: "Ah, I'm back, so cool!"
Teng Teng: "!!"
Ye Shi: "Fuck, what have you been doing? Why are you so slow? And where's that idiot Fang Chang?"
Canyon Runaway Mole: "I don't know, I went to the toilet and squatted for a long time and left. He went to the bathroom and didn't come out for a long time. I was too lazy to wait and left. Let's not talk about these nonsense. I tell you, B2 floor is really awesome!"
Ye Shi: "What do you say!"
Canyon Runaway Mole: "Don't worry, first of all, the layout of this B2 floor is similar to a circular space, which is divided into four areas ABCD in a fan shape. Among them, the BCD area is a bit like a dormitory, and the A area should be a functional area, with a canteen, a toilet and a bathroom. There is also a door at the back that I couldn't get in, so I didn't see it, but this toilet and bathroom are simply awesome!"
Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes: "Canteen! Is there food in it??"
Canyon Runaway Mole: "That's not the case. The door of the back kitchen is locked and I can't get in. The refrigerators and beverage machines in the hall are empty. I guess the back kitchen should be the same, but the refrigerator can be used, which is good news! I can have cold drinks when it's hot next year."
"Let's not talk about the kitchen first, just talking about this bathroom, I have to brag about it! The circulating self-cleaning toilet seat, the automatic washing cleaning system, you don't have to worry about anything except pooping when you sit on it, and we don't have to worry about catching a pile of Ollie when looking for Tess all over the floor! Woo woo woo, I'm even willing to pay for this toilet!"
There's a mosquito in the WC: "Fuck, shut up! Don't let the planner see this!"
Ye Shi: "Awesome! Yesterday I was discussing with Lao Bai what to do if you get frozen when you go to the bathroom in winter. It's so cool to go to the bathroom in the shelter!"
Kuangfeng: "Wait a minute... You mean, there's water in the shelter? Is the toilet you're talking about a flush toilet?"
Irena: "... What do you want to do? I have a bad feeling. (Funny)"
Kuangfeng: "No, just curious."
Canyon Runaway Mole: "Hahaha, of course there is water! This is the second point I want to talk about! The biggest difference between B2 and B1 is that there is fresh water supply! Whether it is water from the lake, rainwater collection, or internal circulation water purification system, in short, you can drink clean drinking water from the water dispenser in the kitchen, solve the urgent need in the high-tech toilet, and enjoy a 360-degree immersive shower in the single bathroom! By the way, why hasn't Fang Chang come out yet? Is he addicted to taking a shower?"
Night Ten: "To be honest, this guy is a little perverted sometimes, but he is normal in most cases. Let's ignore him for now."
Fang Chang: "Go away! I came out a long time ago. I was just writing a strategy post!"
Night Ten: "Huh?"
Canyon Runaway Mole: "Big Fang, how does it feel to take a shower?"
Fang Chang: "Well... it feels good. It's probably a simulated ultrasonic atomization technology, but I never thought that this technology could be applied to showers. In short, it's quite sci-fi. Basically, you don't have to move during the whole process. It completely subverted my understanding of showers. I feel that it's worth spending money to experience it. "
Night Ten: "What? Is it so awesome? Ah, I really want to go online. I'll experience it when I get back to the dormitory!"
Canyon Fleeing Mole: "By the way, have you edited your post?"
Fang Chang: "It's already been posted in the forum!"
...
"Guide to B2 floor of Shelter 404... Have these players already visited B2 floor? "
When Chu Guang woke up, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.
The first thing he did after waking up was to turn on the computer and log in to the official website to read the posts posted by the stupid netizens in the forum.
Wow, it seems that these players have turned their B2 floor upside down.
However, he locked most of the doors, so he couldn't open them even if he wanted to. Weapons that can break the door are not allowed to pass through the buffer room and cannot be brought into the shelter. In addition, Chu Guang gave the camera permissions to Xiao Qi. With Xiao Qi's help, he didn't have to worry about these players demolishing the house while he was away.
In general, the players are still very excited about the content of the Alpha0.5 version update.
Especially after seeing the new high-tech facilities on the B2 floor, those players who have experienced it instantly fell in love with life here.
Compared with the surface, life in the shelter is so much more comfortable!
After reading these posts, Chu Guang somewhat understood the settings left by the first generation of managers.
Indeed, compared to the outside, this place is simply a paradise.
Expecting people with two feet in heaven to build hell is an inhumane idea in itself.
Chu Guang touched his chin and thought.
"Well, it's decided that the use of living facilities in the shelter requires VM to obtain permissions, and the water purifier, shower and toilet are all paid. "
The official website message record is a testimony.
This is not his idea, but the players' own suggestion.
In addition, some players who have bought VM from Xiaoqi have also made some suggestions, such as simply integrating the translator and wallet functions on the VM.
The wallet is worth considering and launching together with the bank system.
It doesn't matter if there is no electronic payment function. The extra silver coins are kept in the bank and can be withdrawn when needed. This is convenient for players to check their deposits at any time, and it is also convenient for Chu Guang to recycle the circulating currency.
It can be said to be a win-win situation!
As for the translator.
In theory, it can be made with some time, but it is not necessary now.
Now, in a hurry, let the players and the natives communicate freely, except for a lot of trouble for yourself, there is no benefit at all.
To put it bluntly, the language barrier may be an obstacle for players, but it is not a bad thing for Chu Guang.
From the perspective of a manager, he needs to create an information gap between players and natives, or an "information filter", which is the best choice for both parties. Cross-server communication can also retain a little beautiful imagination between each other.
Moreover, even in the game with the highest degree of freedom, it is not said that you can communicate with every NPC in the game in a large amount of text, right?
If you can do it, it would be unreasonable!
In comparison, the lines of Xia Yan, the owner of the weapon shop, are relatively many. When she is annoyed, she will not only stamp her feet in anxiety, but also curse a lame and cute trash talk.
Many players even wake her up as soon as they see her sleeping just to listen to Xia's trash talk.
If there is no information filter, not to mention whether Xia can still be so cute, she will definitely run to sympathize with the plunderers, or be fooled by NPCs to do "branch lines".
In addition to causing a lot of trouble and variables for yourself, there is no benefit at all. Even if you want to arrange translators for them in the future, they will definitely be selective translations.
However, think about it from another angle...
"We can develop a special version of VM for NPCs."
Thinking of this, Chu Guang's eyes lit up instantly while staring at the forum.
"The special version of VM for NPCs deletes the attribute panel, adds task publishing and translation functions, and the translation function only supports specific language scenarios, translating daily and functional terms."
Don't translate the dirty talk of players. The cultural background is different, and even if you translate it, it will be irrelevant and easy to cause misunderstandings.
For example, "Oli Gei" is not very suitable to be translated into "Just do it" and "Old Eight". It has different meanings in different contexts.
The owner of the weapon store, just do what the owner of the weapon store should do. It is enough to know what your lines mean and what the players want to buy.
As for other things, when the great administrator needs you to know, you will naturally know.
"The screen of VM is still a little small, equivalent to the teleprompter of simultaneous interpretation... But with language training, it is enough to use it. "
Slowly, we can train a group of natives who can speak Chinese, and a level 1~2 is enough. As long as they can master some game terms and daily communication, they are more than qualified for NPC positions.
The more Chu Guang thought about it, the more he felt that he was a genius.
I am worthy of it!
As for the "subtitles" used by players.
Let's talk about it when he feels it is necessary!
