Official forum:
"Big news! Shelter 404 manager 'Dawn' flirted with a female mercenary from Red River Town!"
"Shock! The manager slept with a female mercenary!"
"Spread it, they slept for five days and five nights!"
"The child is five months old!"
"We are all adults who can play games seven days a week, please speak more maturely! Don't be so childish! So what about the process animation? What about the plot CG? Just skip it? Bad review!"
"Hahaha, you bully NPCs for not being able to go online, won't you lose your favorability? Hahaha."
Not only the players were booing, but the cloud players were also booing.
Just at this time, the big man in the forum [Mole on the Run in the Canyon] jumped out and opened a separate post.
"Line drawing is here! (Picture) (Picture) (Picture)"
Ya Ya: "!!!"
Teng Teng: "This, is this something you can watch without spending money? (Nosebleed)"
Ye Shi: "Mole brother YYDs!"
Fang Chang: "Awesome!!!"
Mole on the run in the canyon: "Hehehe, don't panic, brother Meng, it's just a line drawing, wait for me to color it!"
["Mole on the run in the canyon" was banned by the moderator for 12 hours]
Lao Bai: "?!"
Yelena: "Danger! (Funny)"
Guang: "Don't post weird pictures, and no nude pictures will be allowed in the future. Although our server complies with local laws and regulations, we are a serious company and the game is also a serious game. Please restrain yourself and don't post erotic pictures."
Although the game qualification is only issued to adults, the official website is open to anyone, and there are people of all ages. It is still inappropriate to have bloody and violent pictures.
"Wasteland OL" is a fun game with the main selling point of "relaxed entertainment and leisure cultivation". Bloody and violent pictures do not exist. This game does not advocate liver or krypton, let alone color.
Someone posted a pornographic picture before. The first time, he was banned and warned. The second time, he was directly at risk. The third time, he locked the IP + machine code.
Since Chu Guang found that Xiao Qi could operate the computer on his behalf, Chu Guang simply threw the forum to Xiao Qi to help manage it.
After all, he couldn't read the thousands of posts every day with manual management.
In addition, Chu Guang also asked Xiao Qi to add some interesting strategy posts to his favorites, and he would take a look at them when he was free.
The selected memorials still need to be read.
What if there are good ideas?
Isn't there an Alpha 0.6 version?
Ye Shi: "Fuck, the erotic pictures blew up the planner!"
Debt Big Eyes: "Pass it on, the planner will come out when he sees the erotic pictures!"
All the good names were taken by dogs: "Pass it on, the planner will look at the erotic pictures during work hours!"
Chu Guang: "…"
Tsk.
What a bunch of idiots!
Fang Chang: "Ah! I feel sorry for Brother Mole. He just drew a line draft and was punished. So miserable!"
Teng Teng: "Since you can't draw the books of the administrator and the female mercenary, how about... Brother Mole, consider changing the mercenary Xiao Gai to a grateful boy? (o?▽?)o "
Ye Shi: "I suggest drawing Teng Teng and Ya Ya!"
Kuang Feng: "Support!!!"
Irena: "Withered vines, old trees, and crows? (Funny)"
WC is really a mosquito: "!! Goblin Industry sponsors a silver coin!"
Ya Ya: "What the hell??? (.Д.;)"
Teng Teng: "(?‵□′)?╰?╯"
...
With the transaction with the Horseshoe Company, time quickly came to October.
Just as most of the experienced survivors predicted, this year's winter came earlier than ever before.
It was just the beginning of October, and the average daily temperature on the surface dropped from single digits to below zero. The howling cold wind and falling snow swept the earth. In just one night, the snow on the surface piled up from the soles of the feet to the calves and even the knees.
Fortunately, the snow did not fall all the time.
On this rare sunny day, a group of energetic and motivated new players came to this endless ruin.
They woke up from the comfortable incubator.
Looking at the extremely real carcass and the surrounding environment in their sight, they were shocked, surprised, and even ecstatic to the point of being unable to breathe.
Chu Guang locked the permission to open the door and gave them ten minutes to put on their clothes and adjust their emotions to avoid them dying in public.
Then he used the radio to remind them to gather in the central hall on the B2 floor.
"Wow, wow, wow! It's really virtual reality technology!"
"Too shocking, I'm not dreaming!"
"Pinch me... Eh? Why doesn't it hurt at all?"
"Stupid! You've been waiting on the official website for half a month for nothing! I told you it's pain shielding, do you understand pain shielding?"
"Hey, can you open it? I want to try it..."
"...???"
Old players are no longer surprised by these newbies who are making a fuss, after all, they went through this in the past.
In addition, the game releases accounts in batches, and watching the newbies collectively die has become one of the traditions or fun of this game.
"Tsk, that guy is pretty good, he didn't seem surprised at all, he's obviously a high-level player."
"Hey, how do you know he wasn't scared silly? Look at his pupils, they're all dilated."
"Ah, the quality of this group of newbies is average, their psychological endurance is not strong, their surprised reactions are too exaggerated, a bit exaggerated."
"Come on! You're still talking about others! I clearly remember that it was you who just came in and wanted to take off your pants, but was stopped by the people around you."
"Okay, okay, you can shut up now."
Chu Guang was also watching.
He was waiting for everyone to arrive.
Just then, a few screams of "Ah" suddenly came from the back of the crowd.
Chu Guang looked up and found a white-haired bear about two and a half meters long, timidly holding the door frame, and poking out a cowardly bear face from the north gate of the square.
"My, my, my, why am I covered in hair?"
Many newbies nearby were startled and instinctively dodged to the side.
"My giao! There's a bear!"
"Chest?! Where?"
"Damn!"
Old players were relatively calm.
After all, there are even lizardmen, let alone bears?
Occasionally, this game will give birth to a few European emperors, either with special talents or with genetic sequences that are different from normal players.
As for Chu Guang?
He was even calmer.
After each player confirmed the login, the gene sequence would be updated in the system's [Player List]. And he was the first to see the players' attribute panels.
[
ID: Meat Mountain Steamed Bun
Gene Sequence: Alien · Bear
Level: LV.0
——Basic Attributes——
Strength: 9
Agility: 6
Constitution: 7
Perception: 7
Intelligence: 3
]
[
Talents:
Cold Resistance (extremely resistant to severe cold, not good at hot environments, and receives additional burn damage.)
Parallel Feet (stronger endurance, difficult to operate complex machinery)
Physical Regeneration (stronger recovery, difficult to increase gene sequence level)
]
Agility, constitution, and perception are 1 point lower than Junk-kun, strength is 1 point higher than Junk-kun, and intelligence is 1 point higher.
Of course, that was when he was LV0, and Junk-kun is now LV2.
Although the initial attributes of the "alien" sequence are generally stronger than the five mainstream sequences, the debuff that weakens the growth of the alien sequence is a serious flaw.
For example, Junji.
He is an old player who entered the game in the first few batches, but his level has been suppressed in the second echelon and he has been only LV2 for more than half a month, which is really embarrassing.
In addition, the characteristics of "parallel feet" make them more inclined to engage in primitive activities, and it is difficult for them to operate equipment as conveniently as normal humans.
Still taking Junji as an example, even if the trigger and grip are improved, it is difficult for him to operate light weapons.
Anyway, Chu Guang feels that this guy has given up using guns and has completely embarked on the path of physical evolution. If you can get close to the face, you can get close to the face, and if you can't get close, you can use a javelin.
Most players are happy to team up with him.
After all, who doesn't love a tank?
If you can't rush over, you'll be a target, but if you rush over, you'll be slaughtered!
When the newbies first saw the bear, they were all panicked, but after seeing how cowardly this guy was, they all approached curiously.
At this time, a short-haired female player named [Tail] quickly went around to the back, curiously stretched out her hand to pull the tail of [Roushan Damo], and scared the bear so much that it jumped forward.
"What are you doing!"
Tail smiled.
"Brother, you're awesome! How much did you pay for this account?"
"I, I, I just drew it normally, and it took me a long time to draw it. By the way, how can this game spend money? There is no recharge option."
Another long-haired female player named [Sisi] came over again, curiously pulling the furry tail, and scared the bear so much that its back was directly pressed against the wall.
"Come to think of it, why do you have such a strange name, Big Bun?"
"I, I, I originally wanted to call you Meat Mountain Demon King, but I made a typo. Oh, this game can't change the name, too bad."
Sisi suddenly smiled evilly.
"I understand, I'll go to the forum and register a small account called Meat Mountain Demon King."
"Don't, I'm going to cry."
Tail touched his chin and thought for a while, and suddenly knocked his right fist on the palm.
"It's decided, I'll call you Rourou from now on! You'll be my mount from now on. Wait, show me first, do you have that."
Rourou was about to cry.
"Nigu! I'm a girl!"
Tail laughed even more happily.
"It's okay, me too! Come on, let me see!"
Sisi: "Hey! Are you a hooligan?"
"You're so long-winded!"
After a lot of fuss, Tail finally let go of the big bear in disappointment and smacked his tongue.
"Tsk, nothing."
It has to be said that this furry animal is still very attractive to female players.
Of course, the main reason is that this guy is too embarrassing and not domineering at all. If it were the mutant brown bears in the wasteland, the more powerful ones could kill a creeper with a slap.
But then again, the players of the alien sequence don't have those organs, so is this meat a male or female bear?
Emmm...
Forget it.
This question is too difficult for him.
Just follow the player's gender.
When the most slow players also stood in the square, looking at these noisy players, Chu Guang coughed heavily and signaled them to be quiet.
Then, Chu Guang said in a solemn voice.
"The war is over."
"But the bad news is that our world has changed beyond all recognition."
"It is now the 200th year after the apocalypse. Fortunately, we have successfully survived the most difficult years. You are more fortunate than 12 billion people to be able to stand here, and now I need you to recognize the current situation as soon as possible, and then fulfill your declaration under the banner of the Human Union - rebuild our home!"
"The one next to you is my assistant, its name is Xiaoqi. If you have any questions about the shelter, or if you don't understand something, you can ask it."
As it has been done many times.
As the manager of the shelter, Chu Guang announced the rules and regulations of the shelter to the 100 little players who had just crawled out of the incubator.
And the lines he had finally thought of.
Every time a new player enters the game, the "cutscene" is similar, but what is different between the "Alpha 0.5 version" and the previous versions is that Chu Guang has added a special task for old players who have reached the citizen level.
That is, to help new players level up.
All players who have reached the citizen level and received VM equipment can receive the "Passing on the Torch" task in the task system.
The task content is very simple.
The player who receives the task can select up to three new players to become their "novice guides". As long as they bring them from LV0 to LV1 within a week, they can get 100 contribution points and 10 silver coins as rewards.
100 contribution points are not very attractive to players who have reached the citizen level, but the reward of 10 silver coins is still very tempting.
For example, for the strength system, as long as you keep chopping trees until you are exhausted, you can reach LV1 in two consecutive days.
Upgrading other systems requires some skills. But basically, except for the intelligence system, it is not too difficult to upgrade from LV0 to LV1, and it will take about three days.
You can also do other tasks to make money while leading people to level up, and you can lead three younger brothers at a time, and the silver coins are equivalent to free money, so why not?
In addition, newcomers with gene sequence level LV0 can also receive the related tasks of "Passing on the Torch" through the public notice board in the lobby.
Choose a "Shelter Veteran" with VM equipment to serve as your "Newbie Guide".
As long as the level is upgraded to LV1, you can get 80 contribution points and 8 silver coins as rewards, which is basically equivalent to the income of a new player who works normally for 12 hours.
This numerical design is very reasonable.
The reason for launching the "Passing on the Torch" task is, on the one hand, to allow new players to quickly get into the state, so as not to bump around like a headless fly, and on the other hand, to allow them to integrate into the large group of Shelter No. 404.
Especially the latter.
For a class of 100 people, even changing seats can change the class environment, not to mention that there are suddenly twice as many people.
Chu Guang knows very well that the biggest challenge brought by the Alpha0.5 version update is not the server CPU, but the impact of new players on the server environment of "Wasteland OL".
After all, this kind of game with a threshold, hardcore, and "virtual community" as a selling point, determines from the gameplay that the server environment is above all else.
It's like a normal online game that everyone is playing well, but suddenly it is free for a limited time on the weekend, and a few flies fly in, and it instantly becomes unplayable.
For example, a certain squad.
A newbie can become a nightmare for the entire squad, especially when he grabs the only "sniper" or heavy barrel in the team, or even sneaks into the vehicle team and becomes a vehicle driver, that is the beginning of a nightmare.
Can you blame him?
No.
Everyone is a newbie. Except for those who enjoy destroying other people's gaming experience, most people can still communicate.
As long as someone is willing to teach, they are still happy to learn, and the server environment will naturally improve.
In fact, from the perspective of making money, the normal logic is to drive away the old players who have paid, and let those flies run around in the server, which can not only breed poison but also stimulate consumption. When the flies are having fun, the server bans them. Maybe they will open a few more accounts to crash the server in anger, and the sales will increase.
For example, a certain blue hole.
But is Chu Guang that kind of person?
What is money?
It's all shit!
"Wasteland OL" would rather operate at a loss than give players the best gaming experience and maintain the server environment to the end!
"With VM, the friend and team systems can be arranged as soon as possible. These functions are all artifacts for maintaining the social ecology of MMORPG."
"When the number of players increases in the future, and the gap in level, wealth, and combat power widens, the guild system can be gradually developed."
"The powerful guilds can be upgraded to legions and sent out to open up wasteland or fight."
"Well, the guild and legion content can be combined with the identity level. Only players who have made enough contributions to the shelter can become the lord of the frontier, the president of the guild, or even the head of the legion."
"I am simply a genius!"
Looking at the players who were already shouting for a group in the square, Chu Guang's expressionless face could not help but show a satisfied smile.
Very good.
The fresh little leeks are growing vigorously.
