Chapter 348 347 If You Want to Improve the Happiness of Your Subjects, You Still Have to Do Something.
Chapter 348 347. If you want to improve the happiness of the people, you still have to do something.
It is well known on the forum that the development team of "Real Alien World" is very diligent in fixing bugs. Especially after the number of players participating in the test increased and the plot progressed to cover the entire Transia, Brother Fa would issue an update announcement almost every week.
After the assistant Xiao Cui appeared and became active in the forum, Xiao Cui would occasionally be responsible for the update.
In most cases, the content of the update announcement is a minor repair of various gameplays, and occasionally a summary of the development of Scarlet Castle and Transia is made in an overview. Therefore, many old players jokingly call the weekly update announcement a "work report" given by the development team to the testers, the "Alpha Company shareholders".
However, for some players who are good at summarizing and 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 Alien World":
This online update is mainly aimed at making appropriate modifications to some "disharmonious factors" that appeared in the "Hundred Days Construction" operation, because the prevalence of slave hunting in Transia has caused the Scarlet Archon Ms. Miriam and her administrative team to worry about the surrounding situation.
She and her administrative team unanimously determined that it was not a good time to provoke "bad neighbors", so they urgently contacted the development team to make patches to modify the current situation.
Awesome!
My little players!
I have been doing testing for so long, but this is the first time I have seen a situation where some overly hardcore spontaneous actions of players forced the development team to modify the task gameplay. I can only say that you are really amazing.
The following is the specific content of this update:
1. In order to draw players' attention back to Transia's internal affairs and improve the happiness of residents in the territory, the busy Lord Murphy discussed with his loyal servant Maxim and decided to launch a one-month "Transia Boxing Championship" in the Fighting Club.
Although it is called the Boxing Championship, there is more than just boxing as an event. Under the order of the Governor, the Blood Rat Gang has opened up competition venues suitable for different events in the sewers.
Shooting, throwing, weightlifting and even blind fighting events have been confirmed to exist.
This action aims to have fun with the people, so the selection of boxers will include all citizens in Transia who are bored and want to have some fun. Therefore, during the duration of the event, any small player who participates in the Boxing Championship has a certain chance to see a familiar face in the opponent's seat.
Including but not limited to Commander Maxim, Commander Adele and Baron Kudel and 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 that these NPCs can be defeated, they will receive their unique rewards.
In addition, don't forget that the "Challenge Letter from Mr. Murphy" continuous task can also be obtained in this event.
It is necessary to remind all testers that the online addition of this event is not just 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 a lot of shameless prisoners and violent elements to the captives sent back to Transia. These guys who are good at talking with fists hope to resume their old business in Transia, but the brave little players will tell them that when it comes to talking with fists, they are not inferior to any challenger.
In this event, "Nordtov Vanguard Thugs" will be randomly refreshed. Every time you defeat one of them, you will get +1 construction points.
Get the top three in a single project, +10 construction points.
Get the champion of a single project, +50 construction points, and get the limited-time rare title "Transian Boxing Champion".
2. Rules and restrictions on the "Slave Hunting Team" gameplay have been issued:
The Scarlet Castle Administration does not want to see the current fluctuations in the territory's diplomatic security situation. Therefore, from the time the online update takes effect, refugees from East Prussia and Kavhoka will no longer increase construction points for players.
The benefits of refugees searched through legal channels (such as the assistance of the Batashin Chamber of Commerce and the missionary behavior of the Avalon Church) remain unchanged.
3. Added a new channel for obtaining refugees through inspections: The call of the mountain people:
The mountain tribe in the ancestral forest at the northernmost end of Xike Territory has just sworn allegiance to the Governor of Transia, and the Count of Xike, Little Sharon, who is in charge of managing them, has also been given a special task.
Because the territorial division of this unique group of mountain people in Transia and surrounding areas in the long history is quite ambiguous, the Governor hopes to call on the mountain people in the Saxe area to join Transia through the communication between the mountain people.
Players who are willing to help the mountain people who have been persecuted by the Plantagenet Kingdom to enter the civilized land can go to the ancestral forest and find the mountain elders to participate in the action.
The Saxe mountain people obtained through the inspection of this channel enjoy the same construction points as the refugees.
Tips!
Going from the ancestral forest to the wild forest in the Saxe area is a dangerous thing. Even if there are local mountain people leading the way, the various dangerous beasts and dangerous terrains encountered on the way, as well as the mountain patrols of the Plantagenet Kingdom that may be refreshed at any time are all factors worth considering.
This activity is not for the weak.
Therefore, the development team makes a special suggestion here. Please consider trying this gameplay after reaching the Black Iron Tier.
4. The number of rare goods sold in Dorothy's black market has increased, and the refresh time of each batch of goods has been extended to ten days.
5. The professional system of the Xike Winged Cavalry has finally been completed, and the Winged Cavalry superior profession "Heart of the Forest·Holy Grail Knight" represented by the Knight of Valander has been born. Thanks to the efforts of Count Sharon and the Knight of Valander, the Transian official has finally mastered the production method of the Winged Cavalry equipment.
This equipment is a high-level psychic item, and it is possible to master its complex production method only if you have a certain manufacturing foundation.
Manufacturing players can go to the administrative office to observe a series of production drawings, and the administrative office will also give corresponding military orders according to the progress of the drawings unlocking.
6. Fixed a small number of BUGs. 】
This update announcement clearly stated at the beginning that it was a gameplay supplement for the current main quest, and the restrictions it listed made a group of "hawkish" little players who followed the post below feel like they had lost their parents.
Leading pigeon: [Damn it! The income of the slave-hunting team was directly cut off. The ideal of occupying the mountain and becoming a big bandit and reproducing the Water Margin in Transia was shattered. It was disbanded. It seems that the development team is still not free enough.
What do you think you are afraid of?
We are in this situation. Are you still afraid of being reported? 】
Azan: [What are you looking at? If you don’t need it, you can donate it to those in need. Look carefully! People have made it very clear that the slave-hunting team’s tricks can no longer be used in East Prussia and Kavhoka, but there are no restrictions in the Cato area.
In other words, as long as you want, you can still do some tricks. 】
Lumina Yanghen: [If I remember correctly, the wolf poison vampires who came to fight us last time came from the Cato area, right?
According to the background description, that place has now been given to the Wolf Poison Clan by King Louis as their base camp on the mainland. In other words, if we go there to search for refugees, we have to fight the wolf poison vampires face to face? 】
Live well: [This is obviously the Blood Eagle Clan's smuggling of private goods. As expected of the plot's favorite son, the development team actually acquiesced to the players' provocation of the Wolf Poison Clan. In other words, they did not prohibit the slave hunting team gameplay.
They just restricted the targets to avoid accidentally hurting "friendly forces". In fact, this is also 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 overall strength of Transia now, directly provoking the Plantagenet Kingdom is just like Guo Xiaosi jumping up and smashing Tyson's knee.]
Sister Pomegranate pulls up the weeping willow: [Your metaphor is really strange and vivid. No matter what! Let's go, let's go boxing! Go to the Blood Rat Gang to sign up now. Isn't it said that there is a chance to encounter combat NPCs?
It's just a good time to check our progress in improving our military strength during this period. I also plan to complete the legendary event of challenging Lord Murphy before the black disaster arrives.
Alas, after the new version was released, Maxim's challenge for the strong has stopped. I can't see him all day long, which is really worrying. 】
Ruthless Horse Fork Worm: [This design must be an easter egg. It is impossible to let NPCs enter the game in full state, otherwise who can beat them? They are all skeleton-level, and even the detection spell can't see their specific information clearly.
It will only give you a prompt of "extremely dangerous" or "like a god". 】
What color is loyalty: [Damn, you dare to use the detection spell on your own NPC, awesome brother! Isn't it said that this thing will cause hostility when it is sensed? You really don't consider brushing their favorability. 】
Ruthless Horse Fork Worm: [Fuck!!! This thing will actually increase hostility when it is sensed? Chao! I was wondering why Ms. Dorothy ignored me every time I went to the sewer, and it turned out that this is the reason.
Chao!
I lost five million. The cool tattooed lady like Dorothy is my favorite. ]
Frostfang Claw: [.When you get to know her, you will know that your tattooed lady is an unreliable senior funny person.
In addition, the reputation merchant of the Blood Rat Gang put up a batch of special "treasure maps" this morning. Brothers who are interested can come and have a look, but this guy always moves back and forth between several strongholds, and his location is not easy to find. ]
Onboard Happy Stick: [!!! Can I buy treasure maps directly now? Damn, the gameplay of the secret hunter has been greatly enhanced! Yaya, buy a few for me, and I will give you the money after I go online. ]
Frostfang Claw: [Well, I can help you bring it, and I will buy it at an internal discount price. But don't worry, this thing is not the kind of treasure map you imagine. To be more precise, those things record the locations of some tombs that may hide good things on the land of Transia.
And it is sold in the form of a "hire agreement".
After you buy it, you have to hand over part of the proceeds to them according to the agreement.
Moreover, some of these tombs conflict with the reputation of some main NPCs, for example, there is a series of treasure maps that record the "Veteran Cemetery".
If you do this, your reputation with the Cadman People's Army will be invalidated.
So I feel it's quite a rip-off. 】
Tiger Knight: [Whether it's a rip-off depends on the profit. Can you tell me how much profit this thing has? 】
Frost Claw: [I don't know. I personally hate this kind of behavior, but judging from the profit in the tomb of the first Earl Xi Ke, it should be quite lucrative.
But digging graves in this magic world is risky. I have never seen those traps, and it is easy to be buried in them if you are not careful. 】
Touch you poor: [So it is part of the "evil way" gameplay? If you can't brush the reputation of the People's Army, won't you miss a set of veteran armor? 】
Pretend to be cool without hands: [The Blood Rat Gang where we assassins and thieves are also selling reputation armor, which is exactly the same. It doesn't affect the acquisition of equipment. It may interfere with the subsequent plot line.
But to be honest, 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 opinion. 】
Gentle and generous lady Shui: [So, has the development team started to try to make different plot route options to divert players? These details are really well done.
In addition, our Silver Moon Pride Group just discussed it and felt that it was not good enough for us to monopolize the Batasinn Chamber of Commerce, so here we share with you the tutorial of recruiting refugees from the Batasinn Chamber of Commerce through formal means. We have already established a relationship with Ms. Palen, so you can just report our name when you go there to do things.
But don't do bad things in the name of Silver Moon Pride, little brothers, it's not good to do so. 】
Dai Xiahu: [Wow, Sister Shui is really beautiful and kind! It's a pity that I have decided to fight, otherwise I will definitely follow you to Kafhoka to see the world. 】
Fatal Orchid Flower: [What sister? At your age, you should call her auntie, understand! 】
Ashiname Swordswoman: [o(╯□╰)o! Orchid Flower, you are dead, Mrs. Shui is already sharpening her knife. 】
Invincible Tyrannosaurus Cheche: [Auntie! I don't want to work hard, it's so hard to work hard. 】
Gentle and generous Mrs. Shui: [Don't want to work hard? Come to Auntie, I'll give you a few slaps to make you sober, okay? You want to live off others without working hard at such a young age?
The threshold of this industry is also very high. Little brother, don't underestimate the value of gigolos. Cover your mouth and laugh. 】
——
The players on the forum started their routine nonsense, and Murphy, who had been peeking at the screen, was relieved.
He admitted that he was indeed a little short of consideration when he came up with the construction points, but now that there is a patch specifically for combat professionals, things will probably develop in the right direction.
"Ah, I always said that Natalie was a shepherd of Avalon. Now it seems that I am a shepherd. A slight mistake in the whip in my hand will trigger a series of chain reactions. This time I learned a lesson.
In the future, I must be cautious in task design."
Murphy touched his core orb and sighed, thinking that Transia was not strong enough. If it could really restore its strength to the period of the Portia Confederation, what's wrong with my own little players crossing the border to capture a few people? Do you, Loren the Dwarf, really dare to provoke a full-scale war because of this?
When he felt a little unhappy as a lord, a civil servant from the administrative department knocked on Murphy's office door, walked in after getting permission, and handed a report to the governor with both hands.
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 people of Scarlet Castle so idle every day now?"
"It's mainly because there is a lack of entertainment activities at present, and the people of Transia have always liked to be brave and aggressive."
The civil servant replied very appropriately:
"Your initiative comes at the right time, Governor. Our people hope to participate in such large-scale activities before the boring winter comes. Because of the war, today's Harvest Festival and several local festivals have not been held."
"Well, indeed, if you didn't say it, I almost forgot that the Holy Blood Festival, which is of great significance to vampires, is next month."
Murphy glanced at the dense statistics of "contestants" on the report, and he rubbed his chin Said:
"Perhaps I should also prepare for the festival for the members of the Blood Eagle Clan in advance. This year is a memorable moment for both Transia and the Blood Eagle Clan.
Then let's prepare at the current pace. The first match of the boxing championship will start in the Fighting Club in two days."
"Uh, Governor, Archon Miriam has a small suggestion."
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, but as the advocate of the event and the most prestigious person in Transia at present, Your Excellency the Archon hopes that you can participate in this event with the people in the form of an 'opening match'."
"???"
Murphy's face was full of question marks.
He really couldn't imagine such a handsome man like himself dressed like a boxer and appeared on the boxing ring of the Fighting Club, so he immediately wanted to refuse, but then hesitated for a moment.
He said:
"It's not impossible, but who will be my opponent?"
"Well, Archon Miriam has arranged it for you about this!"
