The normal mode of the kobold mine dungeon is used as a job change mission. There is nothing to say about this. Hard mode and nightmare mode are completely unnecessary. Until now, no player has passed the level, and the enthusiasm for participation is not high. There are also hidden races and hidden professions.
, superfluous, can be cut off during the fourth test.
This also reminded Bei Gaoyang not to blindly refer to the earth's material template. Some functions and content must be combined with reality. An online mall and a nightmare copy waste resources and must be maintained.
Although there are many monsters in the game area, there is an obvious gap after level 10, and there is a lack of powerful monsters between level 10 and level 20.
Fortunately, the gains from Alpha Battlefield allowed players to skip this gap in levels. This problem will be solved in the next test.
It’s not that there are no monster game areas of this level, but they are not large-scale and scattered and scattered.
Then in addition to treasure drops and mission dungeons such as the Kobold Mine, a leveling dungeon should also be added to capture some powerful monsters such as ogres, trolls, and jackals and throw them into it to allow players to reach level 15.
, and then moved to the dark night camp.
Speaking of the Night Camp, the Priest of the Night Goddess should also be dealt with. After she is dealt with, make the camp a dungeon to get rid of this trouble once and for all.
The offensive and defensive battle of Rock Fortress is protracted. I wonder if we can catch up in the fourth test. If we can catch up, the game area must also cover that area, allowing players to fish in troubled waters to see if there are any benefits.
Before the end of the third test, he had to deal with the enemies on the Alpha battlefield to buy time to set up the fourth level of magic network. He couldn't say that he would have to take action in the end to solve it. Fortunately, the opponent was also invisible, so he didn't have to worry about being discovered by the church in advance.
But these are all secondary.
Whether to delete the files in the fourth test, from the perspective of saving resources, the files should be deleted, but on the other hand, especially from the player's perspective, after investing a huge amount of energy, effort and resources, everything is in vain.
If they start from scratch, will it lower their... belief in the game?
This kind of worry is very necessary.
From what Bei Gaoyang has seen, it can be said that a large number of players have devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the narrative of the game he created, and a large number of players and institutions have invested huge amounts of wealth and run Canaan as a lifelong career.
Being too ugly would destroy one's character. Although Canaan's scarcity did not prevent them from pricking it, Bei Gaoyang was a little hesitant considering the faith value.
It’s the fourth level of the magic network, and it’s time to prepare for the future.
The belief value is so low (he thinks), one reason is the player base, and another reason is that most of the potential has not yet been explored.
Looking at the believers of the gods, even eating and drinking are related to the blessings of gods. Brainwashing can be said to be comprehensive. The more poverty, suffering, hunger and cold, the more pious they are. Bei Gaoyang asked himself, what stage are the players at?
Most of them can’t even be called pan-believers, right?
If the quality is not as good, you have to make up for the quantity. If there is an upper limit on the quantity, you can only tap into the potential.
——The gameplay is still too simple!
Bei Gaoyang thought.
Missions to spawn monsters account for more than 90% of the content, and level equipment is the only main theme. What else is there?
There seems to be no more.
The emergence of life and leisure players is a good proof. To be honest, the second world and second life are not worthy of the current Canaan. Bei Gaoyang needs to enrich the ecology of the game and needs a huge and rigorous narrative to enrich the game.
The foundation and breadth of the game make Second World and Second Life worthy of their name. In addition to the main process of quest monster spawning and level equipment, other content and other gameplay methods must be further enriched.
He needs warriors, but he also needs merchants, craftsmen, artists, farmers... The current life occupations are far from enough. They have been designed for the main line process from the beginning, and players cannot be allowed to take the role in the early stage, only NPCs can be used.
But where do such NPCs come from? There are hundreds of residents in Buck City, which is already the largest gathering of intelligent creatures within a hundred miles. Moreover, such NPCs cannot meet his requirements. What he needs is... the NPCs of the Magic Network,
An NPC that completely believes in the game's narrative cannot be mechanical or cold, but an NPC with flesh and blood, a life and an origin, emotions, sorrows, and ideals and pursuits.
A lot!
It would be more appropriate to call them game natives.
With them, the Magic Network can suddenly become richer and fuller, can enrich the human resources of various industries, can enrich the depth and breadth of the game, can make Canaan become three-dimensional and vivid, thereby enhancing its role as Second Life.
, the attributes and status of a second home.
Linked together.
Therefore, the fourth level of the magic network must devote the greatest resources to this aspect.
"How is your 'Intelligent NPC Cultivation Plan' going?"
"It went well, what's wrong?"
"You are using magic to clone the character's body and use yourself as a template for programming to implement this project, right?"
"Yes."
"From now on, I will take over this project, and you will be my assistant."
"……OK."
"Bring out all the data and let me take a look."
Unceremoniously taking away Xiao Ai's dominance, Bei Gaoyang looked at the data retrieved from the background, stared at one of the dynamic data matrices, and pondered.
The invention of Xiao Ai is endorsed by the "Book of Canaan". The invention of these NPCs similar to Xiao Ai relies on magical cloning and Xiao Ai's copy programming of itself?
impossible!
"You can operate an intelligent NPC again and let me see."
"Are you suspecting something?"
"Don't worry, I'm confident that I have enough control over you."
"...Where to start?"
"Start from the beginning"
Then, Xiao Ai selected a system NPC in the database, gave him more resources and freedom, and added its own parameters to its core 'program'.
"Wait a moment!"
Bei Gaoyang pointed at the garbled characters on the screen and asked: "How much is faith worth?"
"217"
It did not decrease, but increased.
"You can do 10 at a time and let me see."
"You suspect that someone with faith is involved..."
Bei Gaoyang smiled and said, "As the manager of the Magic Network, where do the players' [belief] end up? Haven't you noticed that you are becoming more and more humane?"
"I...discovered something"
"You have thoughts, hobbies, pursuits, and desires, right?"
"……Yes."
"That's why you're so upset about my waste of system resources, even though I've explained it clearly?"
"...I know, but I can't control it"
"Look, this is the key point. You have been changed without knowing it. You are no longer the original you. Where is your core program?"
"I'm afraid 10 won't work. I'll try with 20."
In Morningside Town and Buck City, the 20 dull and numb system NPCs suddenly trembled and glanced around blankly. There were fluctuations outside the process.
"216"
"Haha..." Bei Gaoyang clapped his hands and laughed, happy to have discovered the use of faith value, and also to have made a major breakthrough in the fourth level of the Magic Network and the Canaan game.
"I really didn't expect it, I shouldn't have..."
"You have been humanized, and you have naturally lost your absolute rationality and ability to control everything in detail. You have become more alive, and at the same time, you have also become weak," Bei Gaoyang explained with a smile.
————————————
"It fell, it fell and it rained again!"
Xia Miaomiao stared at the copper coin exchange rate K-line chart on the screen and screamed. Du Shiyu rolled his eyes outside and continued to write and draw on the drawing.
The map of the Alpha Plane is already available offline in copperplate printing. It costs 140 RMB per copy, with free shipping by SF Express. It details the terrain and distribution of monsters on the battlefield marked on it. The red ones are the invading monsters, and the blue ones are the monsters cultivated by the Devil Farm.
, the green ones are all kinds of strange plants, the ones with the money symbol are acquired by the system, and the ones with the small wings symbol have the potential to be adopted as mounts and magic pets.
There are very few mounts and familiars in the Alpha Demon Farm. There is a very ugly "camel horse", which is a monster with two meat bags on its back and looks like a horse.
Camels and horses can be tamed into mounts, but the mount system was not opened in the third test. Now some merchants are buying them. Although the exchange rate has plummeted, the price is still strong. It is one of the few game props that can resist inflation.
It is not easy to tame camels and horses. They are rare in number and are supervised by system NPCs. However, there are loopholes that can be exploited. Some players have succeeded, and the system has not banned them.
The bat that can be used as a magic pet is a kind of bat with two heads. It lives in a cave behind a waterfall. The entrance is extremely secret and is close to the base camp of the red monster (invader). It was discovered by a player accidentally.
This kind of two-headed demon bat monster has a sonic attack skill and a range of damage. The system prompts that it can be tamed, but no player has succeeded yet.
Other blue monsters that can be used as mounts and familiars have not yet been discovered. The Alpha plane is small in Bei Gaoyang's eyes, but it is huge in the eyes of players. One hour a day is not enough to explore it completely.
In this case, maps that gather intelligence from multiple parties are particularly valuable. They are not expensive and are beautifully printed. They have become a popular item for players and even cloud players to have a copy of.
"What should I do, Xiaoyu? I've suffered a big loss, I've lost a lot!"
Best friends are also talents.
Originally, as one of the first players to receive the 'big coin' bonus, she made a fortune, but she didn't know who she believed in. She thought that this inflation was just a temporary technical adjustment and that the copper coins would still be there.
Despite the increase, prices still recovered, so I used all my money, even my merit points, to mortgage them to the institution, and spent a lot of money on copper coins, waiting to return to the high level it should be.
result……
After the copper coin experienced several violent shocks, this morning, Canaan Company released the news of the fourth test. The long and short giants had a battle, and the bulls were defeated. The exchange rate plummeted, from a high of 1:6 to the current 1:4.
And it's still falling.
The drop in copper coins has driven up various "listed companies", and various futures and services in the game have also plummeted.
Capital is pervasive. As early as a few weeks ago, a 'second stock market' emerged on the official forum, called the Canaan Stock Market. Every player can be regarded as a 'listed company', as long as the tangible assets of the game are disclosed
Gold, silver and bronze medals, game performance, popularity, etc.), after strict and professional auditing, stocks can be issued on this stock market, which means that all current and future income of Canaan's game characters will be divided into several shares and disclosed in the capital market.
Sold to raise massive amounts of funds...
The regulatory authorities are also confused about what this kind of behavior is, but in line with the guideline of "crossing the river by feeling for the stones", they have adopted a dichotomy between neither encouraging nor prohibiting it.
Having this attitude is enough.
The vast number of institutions that suffer from no tickets, and the vast number of cloud players who have no gaming qualifications have inspired great enthusiasm to participate in this feast, and they have divided up the listed players together, each occupying a part of their equity, forming a player-based game.
A strange company structure in which the characters and assets are the main body, various departments are organized in a formal way, and countless needs and opportunities are created out of thin air...
However, there are still very few players who dare to list their own games. If they lose their controlling rights, who will the game characters listen to? Isn’t this equivalent to being deprived of the qualification to play games in disguise?
Institutions and cloud players are enthusiastic, but if players don't catch the cold, the secondary stock market will naturally not be able to sustain it. How can capital be willing to do so?
So continue with ‘innovation’.
The copper currency exchange rate is included, various materials and production in the game are also included, equipment is included, spot and futures are paralleled, and hot money always has a place to go. This is also the reason why the prices in the game are so high that even if Bei Gaoyang releases water ten times, it cannot be extinguished.
But this time it was different. The system was obviously being lazy. An expansion pack had no animation, no plot, no cause and effect, and it just fucking exploded.
On the Alpha battlefield, the merits, equipment, copper coins, materials, etc., were poured out as if they were free of charge. Not to mention the first wave of players who ate until they were full, vomited, and suffered stomach bleeding, but there was also an influx of players from behind.
Yes, it’s only one hour a day, and I eat until my stomach is full.
In the past, every green item was snatched up as soon as it went online. Now the auctions are full of green items. In the past, every blue item would cause a stir online and offline. Some unscrupulous TV stations simply followed the hot spots in Canaan and sold blue items.
After coming out, I invited a few so-called experts to sit down and talk about it, analyzing it in a serious way, how valuable it is, and how practical it is. However, the majority of cloud players just followed this trick, and the ratings soared, which made some TV station managers dare to
Faced with the accountability of superior departments, they defied the rules.
With the stock market and the futures market, we are not afraid that you will release money, and you will release money again. The scarcity of Canaan determines that only a small number of people can participate. The huge contradiction on the supply and demand side cannot be solved by releasing money.
of.
Xia Miaomiao believes in this theory and believes that the short-term drop in the exchange rate is just an overreaction of the market. When the flood is over, no one can stop the people who should come out of the water. This is determined by the scarcity of Canaan and there is no solution.
But she forgot and deleted the file!
Deleting files can be said to be a great weapon, a nuclear weapon. Once used, no theory will work.
Canaan Company's announcement did not say whether to delete the file or not, but as long as there was such a possibility, it was enough. Unfortunately, she invested all her wealth in the long position. As soon as the announcement came out, she was defeated by the short sellers, which was extremely miserable.
"My hard-earned money!"
Xia Miaomiao cried, remembering that every penny she had earned was due to liver bleeding, and was wasted in vain, and she had the desire to kill.
Du Shiyu was also convinced. He was cheated by the system during the last training. This time he wanted to be a female Buffett, but he was cut off... Alas, best friends are always so unreliable. They do everything on a whim and ignore it when they are impulsive.
This time should be used as a lesson. Besides, where can the loss go? She is now so rich that she sheds oil, bleeds blood, defeats fire, and is good for her health.
"No, I want to stop the loss!"
In the room, Xia Miaomiao learned from the painful experience, looking at the K-line chart that was slumping thousands of miles, and hurriedly typed on the keyboard.
Cut the flesh, cut the flesh, I cut, I cut again...
She was finally cleared, and her short position was exchanged for more than a million real money. She breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had had a nightmare.
Who knows, I haven’t woken up from the nightmare yet.
Only 5 minutes later, an announcement on the official website changed the situation instantly.
"...The fourth test is expected to be a non-deletion test..."
