Chapter 348 347. If you want to improve the happiness of your subjects, you still have to work hard.
It is well known on the forum that the development team of "Real World" is very diligent in fixing bugs. Especially after the number of players participating in the test increased and the plot advanced to cover the entire Transia, Brother Zhou Fa will basically publish an update every time.
announcement.
After assistant Xiaocui appeared and became active in the forum, Xiaocui would occasionally be responsible for updates.
In most cases, the content of the update announcements are minor repairs to various gameplays. Occasionally, they will summarize the development of Scarlet Castle and Transia in an overview, so many old players jokingly call it the weekly update.
The update announcement is a "work report" by the development team to the testers, the "alpha company shareholders".
However, for some players who are good at summarizing thinking and have keen observation, it is not difficult for them to find that the development team has actually been using update announcements and version updates to fine-tune and guide players' activities in the game.
For example, today's announcement is a very typical example.
[Announcement of the 43rd online update of "Real World":
This online update is mainly to make appropriate modifications to some of the 'disharmonious factors' that appeared in the "Hundred Days of Construction" operation, because the prevalence of slave hunting in Transia has caused the scarlet consul Ms. Miriam and her administrative
The team is concerned about the surrounding situation.
She and her administrative team unanimously decided that now was not a good time to provoke "bad neighbors", so they urgently contacted the development team to patch the current situation.
Awesome!
My little players!
I have been working as a tester for so long, and this is the first time that I have seen players force the development team to modify the mission gameplay due to some too hard-core spontaneous actions. I can only say that it is really your fault.
The following are the specific contents of this update:
1. In order to draw players’ attention back to the internal affairs of Transia and improve the happiness of the residents in the territory, the busy Lord Murphy decided to launch a month-long campaign in the Fight Club after discussing with his loyal servant Maxim.
"Transia Boxing Tournament".
Of course, although it is called the Boxing Championship, there is more than just boxing. The Blood Rat Gang, under the order of the Governor, has opened a competition venue in the sewer suitable for different events.
Shooting, throwing, weightlifting and even blind fighting events have all been confirmed to exist.
This operation aims to have fun with the people, so the selection of participating boxers will include all idle citizens in Transia who want to have some fun. Therefore, during the duration of the event, any small children who participate in the boxing championship will
Players have a certain chance of seeing a familiar face on the opponent's table.
Including but not limited to Commander Maxim, Commander Adele and Baron Kudel, as well as a series of major combat NPCs that have appeared in the plot.
When encountering them, a series of entertainment Easter eggs will be triggered. If there is a one in ten thousand chance of defeating these NPCs, you will receive unique rewards belonging to them.
Also, don’t forget that the “Mr. Murphy’s Challenge Letter” continuous mission can also be obtained during this event.
Testers need to be reminded that the online addition of this activity is not just a way for the programmers of the development team to cover up their mistakes.
It also has factors that are strongly related to the plot!
The cunning Yankees maliciously added many shameless prisoners and violent elements among the prisoners sent back to Transia. These guys who are good at talking with their fists hope to resume their old business in Transia, but the brave little players will tell you
They, when it comes to speaking with their fists, are worthy of any challenge.
In this event, "Nordtov Vanguard Thugs" will be randomly refreshed. Each time one of them is defeated, the construction points will be +1.
Get the top three in individual projects and get +10 construction points.
Obtain the individual event championship, build points +50, and obtain the limited-time rare title "Transcian Boxing Champion".
2. Rules and regulations for the "Slave Catching Team" gameplay have been introduced:
The Scarlet Castle Administration is not willing to see fluctuations in the current diplomatic and security situation in the territory, so from the time the online update takes effect, refugees from East Prussia and Kafhoka will no longer add construction points to players.
Refugees searched through legal channels (such as the assistance of the Battaxin Chamber of Commerce, the missionary activities of the Avalon Church) and other methods will receive unchanged income.
3. Added a new channel for refugee inspection and acquisition: The call of the mountain people:
The mountain tribes in the ancestral forest in the northernmost part of the Xico Territory have just sworn allegiance to the Governor of Transia, and the Earl of Xico, Little Sharon, who is responsible for managing them, has also been given a special task.
Because the mountain people, a unique group, have a rather ambiguous position in the territorial division of Transia and surrounding areas in the long history of Transia, the Governor hopes to call on the mountain people in the Saxo region to actively join Transia through the contact between mountain people.
West Asia.
Players who are interested in helping the mountain people who have been repeatedly persecuted by the Plantagenet Kingdom enter civilized land can go to the Ancestral Woodland and find the mountain people elders to participate in this action.
The Sachs Mountain residents obtained through this channel enjoy the same construction point benefits as the refugees.
hint!
Going from the ancestral forest to the wild forests of the Sachs area is full of dangers. Even if there are local mountain people leading the way, you will encounter various dangerous beasts and dangerous terrains on the way, as well as the Plantagenet Kingdom mountain patrols that may appear at any time.
Both are factors worth considering.
This activity is not for the weak.
Therefore, the development team makes special suggestions here, asking players to consider trying this gameplay after reaching the Black Iron level.
4. The number of rare commodities sold in Dorothy's black market has increased, and the refresh time of each batch of commodities has been extended to ten days.
5. The professional system of Xiko's hussars was finally completed, and the upper-level hussar profession "Heart of the Forest Holy Grail Knight" represented by the Valander Knights was born. Thanks to the skills of Earl Sharon and Valander Knights,
After hard work, Transian officials finally mastered the method of making hussar equipment.
This equipment is an advanced psychic item and requires certain manufacturing skills to master its complex production methods.
Manufacturing players can go to the administrative office to observe a series of production blueprints, and the administrative office will also give corresponding military orders according to the progress of unlocking the blueprints.
6.Fix a few bugs.]
This update announcement clearly states at the beginning that it is a gameplay supplement for the current main mission, and the several restrictions it lists make the group of "hawkish" young players who posted below feel like they are mourning.
The leading pigeon: [Damn! The profits of the slave-catching team have been directly cut off. The ideal of becoming the king of the mountain, becoming a big robber, and recreating the Water Margin in Transia is shattered and scattered. It seems that
The development team still doesn't have enough freedom.
What do you think you are afraid of?
We are already in this situation, are you still afraid of being reported?】
Ah Qian'en: [What are you looking at? If you don't need it, you can donate it to those in need. Take a closer look! People have made it very clear. It's just that slave hunting can no longer be used in East Prussia and Kafhoka.
The team's tricks are not limited in the Cato area.
In other words, you can still do some sexy things if you want.】
Lumina Yanghen: [If I remember correctly, the wolfsbane vampires who came to fight us last time were from the Cato region, right?
According to the background description, that place has been given to the Wolfsbane clan by King Louis as their base camp on the mainland. In other words, if we go there to check the refugees, we will have to fight the Wolfsbane vampires face to face?
】
It’s a good job: [This is obviously the Blood Vulture Clan bringing in private goods. As expected of the plot, the development team actually acquiesced to the players’ provocative behavior against the Wolfsbane Clan. In other words, they did not ban the Slave Catching Team gameplay.
.
We just limited the target to avoid accidentally injuring "friendly forces". In fact, this is quite good. Only by drawing a clear bottom line can we control the scale and situation. I am actually worried that everyone will have too much fun and it will not end.
With the current overall strength of Transia, directly provoking the Plantagenet Kingdom like this is like Guo Xiaosi jumping up and blowing out Tyson's knee.】
Sister Pomegranate uprooted the weeping willow: [Your metaphor is really weird and vivid, forget it! Let’s go, let’s fight! Go to the Blood Rat Gang to sign up now, isn’t it said that there is a chance of encountering combat-type NPCs?
Just to test the progress of our force value improvement during this period, I also plan to complete the legendary event of challenging Lord Murphy before the black disaster comes.
Alas, after opening the new version, Maxim’s strong challenge has stopped, and I can’t see others all day long, which is really sad.】
Merciless Horseworm: [This design must be an Easter egg. It is impossible for the NPC to come off the field in full condition. Otherwise, who can beat them? They are all skeleton-level, and even the reconnaissance technique cannot see their specific information.
.
It will only give you a feedback of 'extremely dangerous' or 'like a god'.】
What is the color of loyalty: [Holy shit, you actually dare to give your own NPCs the reconnaissance technique. That’s awesome, brother! Doesn’t it mean that if this thing is perceived, it will cause hostility? You really don’t think about brushing their favorability. 】
Merciless Horseworm: [Holy shit!!! Does this thing actually increase hostility when it is sensed? blanch! I just said why every time I go to the sewer, Ms. Dorothy ignores me.
It turns out that this is where it started.
Blanch!
It’s a painful loss of five million. Ms. Dorothy’s sassy tattooed sister is my favorite.】
Frostfang Claw: [.When you get to know her, you will know that your tattooed big sister is an unreliable senior joke.
In addition, the reputation merchant of the Blood Rat Gang set up a batch of special "treasure maps" this morning. Brothers who are interested can come and take a look, but this guy always moves back and forth between several strongholds, and his location is not
Easy to find.]
Onboard happy stick: [!!! Now you can buy treasure maps directly? Holy shit, the gameplay of Vault Hunter has been greatly enhanced! Buy a few for me, and I will give you the money after I go online. ]
Frostfang Claw: [Well, I can bring it for you. I’ll buy it at an internal discount price. But don’t worry, this thing is not the kind of treasure map you imagined. To be more precise, those things record special
Some tomb locations in Lancia that may contain good stuff.
And it is sold on an 'employment agreement' basis.
After you buy it, you have to hand over part of the proceeds to them as agreed.
Moreover, some of these tombs conflict with the reputation of certain mainline NPCs. For example, there is a series of treasure maps recording the ‘Veteran Cemetery’.
If you do this, your reputation with the Cadman People's Army will be invalidated.
So I feel quite cheated.]
Hubaoqi · Zai: [Whether it is a scam or not depends mainly on the income. Brother, tell us how profitable this thing is? 】
Frostfang Claw: [I don’t know, I personally hate this kind of behavior, but judging from the income from the tomb of the first Earl Xiko, it should be quite generous.
However, digging graves in this magical world is risky. I have never seen those sinister devices. It is easy to be buried in them if you are not careful.]
Touch your poor: [So is it part of the ‘evil flow’ gameplay? If you can’t brush up the reputation of the People’s Army, won’t you miss out on a set of veteran protective gear? 】
Show off without using any hands: [The Blood Rat Gang, where we assassins and thieves belong, also sells prestige protective gear, which is exactly the same. It does not affect the acquisition of equipment, but it may interfere with the subsequent plot line.
But honestly speaking, if you are really short of money, digging graves is also a good wild way. You can get rich quickly, but there are definitely risks.
This is a matter of benevolence and wisdom.】
Mrs. Gentle and Attractive Water: [So, has the development team begun to try different plot route choices to divert players? These details are really well done.
In addition, we, the Silver Moon Pride Group, just discussed it and feel that it is not interesting for us to monopolize the line of the Batasin Chamber of Commerce, so here we share with you a tutorial on recruiting refugees from the Batasin Chamber of Commerce through formal methods. We have
We have established a relationship with Ms. Palian, so you can just report our names when you go over to work.
But don’t do bad things in the name of Silver Moon Pride, little brothers, it’s very unbecoming to do so.】
Shrimp catcher: [Wow, Sister Shui is really kind-hearted! It’s a pity that I have decided to go boxing, otherwise I will definitely follow you to Kafuhuoka to see the world.]
Deadly Orchid Flower: [What’s your name, sister? At your age, you have to call her aunt, do you understand?]
Female Sword Master Ashina: [o(╯□╰)o! Lan Huahua, you are dead, Mrs. Shui is already sharpening her sword. 】
Invincible Tyrannosaurus Cheche: [Auntie! I don’t want to work hard, it’s so hard to work hard. 】
The gentle lady: [Don’t want to work hard? Come here, auntie, and I’ll give you some words to wake you up, okay? You’re so young and want to eat nothing if you don’t work hard?
The threshold for this industry is also very high. Little brother, don’t underestimate the value of Cowherd. Cover your mouth and smile.]
——
Players on the forum started talking nonsense, and Murphy, who had been peeking at the screen, felt relieved.
He admitted that when he came up with the construction points thing, he was indeed a little careless, but now that there is a patch specially reserved for combat professionals, things will probably develop in the right direction.
"Ah, I have always said that Natalie is the shepherd of Avalon. Now it seems that I am a shepherd. A slight mistake in the shepherd whip in my hand will trigger a series of chain reactions. I have learned a lesson this time.
We must be more cautious in mission design in the future.”
Murphy touched his core orb and sighed, thinking that Transia was actually not strong enough. If it could really return to the power it had during the Confederation of Portia, what happened to your own little players who crossed the border and captured a few people? You Loren
Do you really dare to provoke a full-scale war over this matter?
When he felt slightly unhappy as a lord, a civil servant from the administrative department knocked on the door of Murphy's office. After receiving permission, he walked in and handed a report to the Governor.
Murphy took it in his hand and glanced at it, then said in surprise:
"Are they so enthusiastic about signing up for this boxing championship? So are the citizens of Scarlet Castle so idle every day now?"
"The main reason is that there is currently a very lack of entertainment activities, and Transcians have always liked to be brave and aggressive."
The civil servant replied politely:
"Your initiative comes at the right time, Lord Governor. Our people hope to participate in such a large-scale event before the boring winter comes. Due to the war, today's Harvest Festival and several local festivals cannot be held."
"Well, it's true. If you didn't tell me, I would have almost forgotten that the Holy Blood Festival, which is of great significance to vampires, is next month."
Murphy glanced at the dense "contestant" statistics on the report, rubbed his chin and said:
"Perhaps I should also prepare some holiday arrangements for the members of the Blood Vulture Clan in advance. This year will be a memorable moment for both Transia and the Blood Vulture Clan.
Then prepare according to the current pace, and the first match of the boxing championship will start at the Fight Club in two days."
"Well, Lord Governor, Archon Miriam has a small proposal."
The civil servant looked up at Murphy with a hint of timidity, and whispered:
"Your Excellency the Archon also believes that holding a large-scale event at this time is beneficial to the physical and mental health of the people. However, as the advocate of the event and the most famous person in Transia at present, His Excellency the Archon hopes that you can start the 'opening battle'
Ways to participate in this event that has fun with the people.”
"???"
Murphy's face was filled with questions.
He really couldn't imagine someone as handsome as himself appearing in the ring of a fight club dressed like a boxer, so he was about to refuse immediately, but then hesitated for a moment.
He said:
"It's not impossible, but who will be my opponent?"
"Well, regarding this, Archon Miriam has already made arrangements for you!"
