Ai Lan had just made up her mind when a system prompt came from the void.
"Ding! The world channel is on."
"Mainland channel is on."
"Regional channel enabled."
All three channels were suddenly opened, and in the blink of an eye, countless emoticons flooded the entire regional channel.
Ai Lan casually threw a 666 expression and then opened the World Channel and Mainland Channel, trying to speak.
"Players are invited to purchase speakers in the mall."
"I knew it."
It is an international practice.
"The Dragon Guild has officially settled in the new world. If you are interested in joining, please contact..."
"Tianhe Group has officially settled in New World. If you are interested in joining, please contact..."
Recruitment advertisements from major guilds quickly appeared on the World Channel, which required 10,000 credits to speak once.
In contrast, a large number of income-generating advertisements from small guilds and studios have appeared on mainland channels.
Only then did Ai Lan realize that the continent he was on was originally called the Red Earth Continent.
And this world is called Ashan World.
After a while, after the players' fanaticism was vented, normal communication was finally possible on the regional channel.
In the early stages of the game, all information contains a certain value.
Especially town-related information is particularly important in a war strategy game.
Without Ai Lan opening his mouth, a large number of players on the regional channel began to discuss the location of the town.
Unfortunately, their idea soon came to nothing.
"There is no coordinate system."
There is no coordinate system, and the map is covered in black fog, making it impossible to locate the location through text.
However, through the chats between players, Ai Lan also obtained a lot of important information.
First of all, not all players are born in the wild.
Lifestyle players, also known as internal affairs players, are born in towns.
This is obviously the game company's care for them, but these players cannot get the gifts of the forest.
In other words, they start with one less level 1 soldier or level 1 treasure than others.
This can be considered a kind of balance.
Secondly, a player has accidentally died once, and then respawned in the nearest town.
Although I returned clean and healthy, I can quickly accumulate resources by completing tasks in the town.
Some players in the regional channel are already discussing whether it would be more profitable to die directly at the beginning.
Through the chats between players, Ai Lan also learned that among the gifts of the forest, there would be some rare rewards.
for example:
Withered life crystal: consumption increases the maximum life limit by 30 points, and can only be used once.
Centaur's Emblem of Glory: Use it to gain 300 points of centaur race reputation.
These rewards are all consumables. Players who choose this reward can die directly without any equipment or troops without any punishment (seemingly).
In fact, after learning that the dead can be resurrected in the town, several impatient players have committed suicide and returned to the city.
They obviously don't know that potential points will be deducted upon death.
And their potential is related to the difficulty of their future upgrades.
If you die like this, you will definitely lose blood.
After watching the regional channel for a while, Ai Lan discovered that no one except him seemed to have reached level 2 in the Chiba Forest.
If no one reaches level 2, it means no one knows about the existence of potential points.
No one knows about the potential point setting, and things get interesting.
In just such a short time, he estimated that dozens of players committed suicide and returned to the city in Qianye Forest alone.
If this scope were expanded to the whole world, the number would be terrifying.
In a few days, when a large number of players reach level 2, someone will definitely discover the secret of the potential point.
By then, the game company will probably be scolded.
After sensing that something was wrong with the situation, Ai Lan had three choices.
One: Silence, hide this secret, allow more players to return to the city after death, and reduce regional competition.
Two: Announce this secret, let everyone know the existence of potential points, gain the gratitude of a large number of players, and gain a certain degree of personal prestige in the Chiba Forest.
Three: Contact the game company.
Ai Lan has been playing virtual games for almost ten years, and he has his own way of dealing with this situation.
At the beginning of the design of each game, a set of underlying logic unique to this world will be created.
One thing he could be sure of now.
One of the basic rules of "Invincible Heroes: New World" is to wrap all information layer by layer and let players dig it out by themselves.
As far as he knows, this game has not undergone internal testing or public testing.
"System, help me connect to online customer service. I want to submit a BUG."
The new world has just launched today, and at least tens of millions of players will flock to the game.
As time goes by, more and more players will definitely choose to die and return to the city.
A huge storm is brewing rapidly.
But instead of adding fuel to the flames, Ai Lan chose a behavior that seemed most detrimental to him.
Why did he do this?
Because he knew that it was impossible for him to be the only one to reach level 2 at the beginning, and it was even more impossible for him to be the only one to discover the secret of the potential point.
This probability is too low.
Instead of betting that other players will hide this secret with him, it is better to take the initiative in his own hands.
As for taking the initiative to disclose this secret, for a solo player like him, reputation is the most useless thing.
Not long after the bug was submitted, the game company suddenly issued two server-wide announcements.
"System Announcement: All players who die for the first time will be exempted from all penalties."
"System announcement: If you die again, one potential point will be deducted from the player. Potential points are very important, so please cherish them."
Two extremely sudden system announcements immediately caused an uproar.
After a while, someone announced the secret of the potential point on the world channel.
Only then did all the players know that this game actually had potential points.
"Ding, I received an email, please pay attention to receive it."
"Open the email." Ai Lan glanced at the content of the email, thanking the player or something, and as expected, "Receive the reward."
"Congratulations to the player for getting: Gate of Time and Space [Level 4 Magic Scroll]."
"Congratulations to the player for getting: Gold Bag [Level 3 Treasure]."
Gate of Time and Space [Level 4 Magic Scroll]: After use, all troops can be transported back to the nearest town. (Number of uses: 1/1)
Note: It is a one-time scroll and does not require mana to be used.
Gold Bag [Level 3 Treasure]: Get 500 gold coins every week, and can store up to 10,000 gold coins in it. No more will be added after reaching the upper limit. (1000/10000)
"Yes, a great harvest."
He also left 1,000 gold coins in the gold bag, which just solved his urgent need.
