This Game Is Too Realistic Chapter 87: The debate on balance

Published:

www.soverse.com, the fastest update to the latest chapters of this game is too real!

Official website:

[It snowed heavily today and the surface temperature dropped to 0 degrees. The “Winter is Coming” expansion pack is coming to an end. We have specially released 10 additional closed beta qualifications to give back to the young players who have been waiting for a long time on the official website and insist on checking in. 】

[In addition, the temperature will be cold, so remember to put on some clothes. 】

Today’s version number is still Alpha0.4.

The announcement on the official website still does not mention any news about the Alpha0.5 version, only an announcement about the “weather system” testing situation.

However, the content discussed by netizens on the forum today rarely has anything to do with the planning team’s announcement.

Almost all topics and slots focus on in-game enhancements for professional players.

Teng Teng: “This is outrageous! First 2,000 silver, then 5,000 silver! Please come out and take care of your NPCs! QAQ”

WC really has mosquitoes: “I don’t care, it’s shady! Unless you give me money too! Goblin industry needs subsidies! (╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻”

Midnight Killing Chicken: “The strength system needs to be strengthened! It is unreasonable that an ax cannot chop crab shells! ┬─┬ノ(‘-‘ノ)”

Big Eyes of Debt: “Intelligence players protest! Strongly requesting weapon stores to add drones and floating cannons! (╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻”

Makabazi: “Farming! I want to farm!”

Stop talking nonsense: “No one cares about the fishing guy? 500 contribution points is too painful! QAQ”

Crow Crow: “Hahahahaha, hot chicken! You can even die fishing, weak chicken! {*≧?≦}”

The players on the official website have great opinions and are almost in a quarrel.

Actually, think about it, what is the most important thing about a game?

Of course it’s balance!

In reality, you can selectively ignore the gap between rich and poor, but not in games! Everyone has the same liver, why are you so happy?

Unreasonable.

This is so unreasonable!

Especially since the outpost base is less than two playgrounds, it may not necessarily be 20 acres in total. A brick factory actually has 15 acres, which is equivalent to setting up a new branch base.

Even if the player only has 20% control, it will affect the balance a bit.

No matter what, it has to be below 5% to be more reasonable!

Of course, there are also players who pursue another level of rationality, such as the canyon fugitive mole who has been clamoring to develop a “free trade” system.

This guy opened a special post and rationally analyzed the rationality of this.

“Actually, it’s not as exaggerated as you think. A good economic cycle system is necessary for a game that pursues details. Have you heard of “Albion”? Although it is an MMORPG, the economic system inside is It’s very well done, all the equipment in the game is produced by the players, and your career is basically determined by what you wear.”

“The design that impressed me most is that the cities in the game are economically independent from each other. Although there are auction houses for trading, they do not actively circulate. Players can buy stores, open workshops, and make their own goods. Equipment, or rented to players for handling fees. The equipment produced can not only be auctioned to players, but also sold on the black market. ”

“The most eye-catching one is the black market. Equipment sold to the black market will be bought by ‘monsters’ and become trophies for players to kill monsters. And if no one sells a piece of equipment, the black market will Raise its price within a certain limit to induce players to produce it.”

“Obviously Wasteland OL is also building a similar economic system, but according to my observations, Wasteland OL’s economic system will be closer to reality. I don’t know if you have noticed that the currencies used in different NPC bases are actually Different! So trade is mostly barter! ”

“There may be exchange rate settings in the later stage, but this system will be very complex, even close to a ‘chaos system’, making the changes in economic-related values ​​​​in the game unpredictable, and I don’t know whether the server’s CPU can handle it. Can bear it!”

“No matter what, being brave in innovation is a good thing. Thumbs up to the production team for their courage!”

Chu Guang has finished reading his post. What we should learn from is the old rule of taking notes. If you take too many notes, won’t Alpha 0.5 come out?

However, I don’t know if the server can handle it or not. A few minutes after this post was posted, a small steel bar has already come over.

Professor Yang, King of Thunder: “Haha, I have never played the game you mentioned, but my point of view is still the same. It is a failure to allow players to overly interfere in things that should be done by NPCs! Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. , you will never guess where the bottom line of the players is! If I were the director of the brick factory, I would not sell it to the NPC warehouse and then raise the price of bricks. Do you want to buy it or not?”

Hmm.

This is indeed a problem, but this problem may only appear in future versions, not now.

This cloud player may have forgotten that once accepting a hidden mission, it means giving up 80% of control to the “NPC”.

It’s okay to run a good business, but what if you want to drive up prices and engage in starvation sales?

Whether the NPC messes with you or not, it will be over.

There are many more options to choose from in the game than in reality.

However, this young player’s thinking can be regarded as a reminder to Chu Guang. You can trust the players’ abilities, but you can never overestimate their bottom line, let alone give up using the rules to constrain them.

Even if I increase the shareholding ratio of players in the future, it will not let them exceed 50%.

At the same time, a liquidation warning line must be set for the inventory.

Once the inventory reaches the liquidation warning line, the balancing mechanism is automatically triggered. Even if you hold it in your hand and don’t want to sell it, you still have to break the bones and sell half of it.

What, you want to stop working? Production limit? Do you want to follow the example of the people of Boston and throw bricks into the water?

Haha, the orders in the NPC warehouse are non-stop. You can stop production and try it. The penalty is a [limited time task] with a reduction in equity. You can do it or not.

There is always a way to cure these little smarties.

This Professor Yang didn’t know that his theory had already caused an NPC to write two more entries in a notebook, but normal people probably wouldn’t have thought that NPCs in the game could actually visit the official forum.

At this time, the people from the Cow Horse Team came out.

Fang Chang: “Ahem, let me clarify the question raised by Professor Yang. First of all, you cannot treat the player group as a whole. Just like in chicken games, some people cheat, and some insist on maintaining the game environment, right? I can’t control others. , but our Niu Ma team still has integrity and will not do things like driving up prices in the game. We will not do this now and we will not do it in the future. Please rest assured.”

“In addition, we are actually working part-time. 80% of the shares in the brick factory are owned by Shelter Collective, and we only have 20%. To be honest, this is a bit like a hot potato, and the rewards we pay are not proportional to our income. It’s not as good as you think.”

He didn’t want to clarify, but seeing how intense the discussion was on the official website, he was afraid that the planners would interfere with the game and directly cut off the income from burning bricks.

Originally, 20% of the shares is low enough. If you cut the profit of burning bricks again, you will have to eat nothing.

In short, the sales will be miserable first!

The mole on the run in the canyon: “That’s enough! Give it to me! If you don’t want to do it, do it to me! (Crazy)”

Fang Chang: “Ahem.”

Professor Yang, the King of Lightning: “Haha, you said you wouldn’t, so you won’t? And what about the 20% shares? In fact, the players are still running the business, right? I still say that, you can never underestimate the morality of a player The bottom line is, there will always be people who find ways to take advantage of the loopholes! ”

“For example, I can deliberately throw away part of the inventory and say that the firing failed, but actually secretly sell it to players in need at a price lower than the market price through third-party players. This not only bypasses the NPC’s warehouse, It also bypasses the restrictions on corporate accounts! You know what I mean, even if there is a loss on the account, players can still earn money directly! (Proud)”

Chu Guang was shocked when he saw this post.

Shit.

This brother has learned the criminal law clearly!

WC really has mosquitoes: “Good guy, let’s start by shooting him in reality.”

Fried eggs with tomatoes: “I think it’s worse than a mosquito! (Baring teeth)”

WC really has mosquitoes: “? What does it have to do with me.”

Irena: “Brother, you are a wolf. (Funny)”

Fang Chang: “The pattern, the pattern, do you think you are the only one who is smart? That you can think of it? If you are smart, think again, why don’t I do it this way, and why do you come here to post a statement stating that I don’t do it this way. (Squint) ”

Ye Shi: “Are you going to come to our factory to move bricks when the internal testing starts? I’ll make you the workshop director. (Funny)”

Lao Bai: “Hahahaha, let’s do a public beta! I think the public beta should be fine.”

Light: “(Applause)”

Teng Teng: “Big plan!”

Professor Yang, the King of Thunder and Lightning: “…Well, it’s all theory, don’t take it seriously, I just said it casually, cough cough. (Sweat Soybeans)”

Ye Aonai said: “You laughed, what you said is true. Keep pretending, I’ll see how long you can keep pretending. (Pick your nose)”

Quit smoking: “Dad! Please, give me a chance. T.T”

After closing the post and browsing the official website, Chu Guang found that the number of reservations had increased from 888 to 996.

Although the method of attracting traffic by those willing to take the bait is a bit inefficient, the advantage is that it can screen out a large number of non-target groups.

What are non-target groups?

Professor Yang is a fish that has not been filtered out, at least not the target group in the closed beta phase.

I think about how to cheat every day, using game bugs and planning to battle wits and courage. Is it worthy of the game that others have worked so hard to make?

Can’t you move bricks for NPC properly?

We agreed not to delete the files, so you will be treated as T1 or T0!

“We have to find a way to open the B2 floor… there are so many small players waiting to go online and move bricks.”

I don’t know how many culture chambers there are on the B2 floor.

However, there is still a problem here. There are less than 100 players now, and the elevator capacity is already a bit tight. What will happen when the number of players exceeds 1,000 and 10,000 in the future?

What if it exceeds one million or even ten million?

Of course, Chu Guang felt that the designer of this shelter should consider these issues, such as the existence of exits from other floors that can reach the surface directly.

After all, there is no reason for such a large refuge facility to have only one exit to the outside world. And if the “technology for communicating with parallel worlds” was completed in this refuge, then the first generation manager should have left it to him to produce This kind of culture chamber technology.

When a large number of “players” can be delivered from the shelter to the surface, it will naturally enter the closed beta.

When it is possible to break away from the space limitations of the shelter itself and mass-produce “players” on the surface, the open beta will naturally come.

“Summer salt.”

Hearing Chu Guang suddenly calling his name, the proprietress of the weapons store who was sitting in the corner memorizing books until she felt dizzy was stunned for a moment and looked up at him blankly.

“What for?”

“Do you know how to contact the slave merchant?”

When she heard the words “slave trader”, the little girl’s face turned pale. She squeezed the book tightly with both hands and seemed to shrink.

“You, what do you want to do?”

“…?”

Although he knew that she was probably overthinking, where did her imagination go? Chu Guangneng could draw a tree diagram of the possibilities.

Tsk, annoying.

He hates guessing.

Seeing that Chu Guang didn’t say anything, Xia Yan’s face turned pale and red, then red and blue. The misunderstanding was getting deeper and deeper, and he spoke with trembling teeth.

“I, I, I, I, if I didn’t do something well, tell me and I will definitely change it. Don’t, don’t, don’t sell me… please.”

“…What stupid words are you talking about? Don’t you still have one leg? Why should I sell you?” Chu Guang rolled his eyes and urged, “I plan to buy some labor and ask you if you are familiar with Anyone who is doing business in this area has nothing to say.”

This guy is really too idle.

Generally speaking, when you hear that a company is going to lay off employees, the ones who are most afraid are definitely those who often take advantage of the situation. If you don’t fish, what are you afraid of?

Huh?

Although I always feel that there is something wrong with Chu Guang’s answer, he is not trying to sell himself out.

Xia Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense shoulders relaxed.

Slowly leaning back against the wall, she raised her eyebrows and glanced at Chu Guang, muttering.

“I, where do I know that kind of businessman? Do you think I am someone who can afford a slave?”

“Tsk, you haven’t sold it before?”

“Who do you think I am? I am, after all, a serious mercenary, not a predator.” Xia Yan argued with a red face.

Chu Guang shrugged and did not comment.

Is there a big difference between mercenaries and predators?

Even businessmen occasionally appear as predators, let alone mercenaries who originally relied on guns to make a living? But asking about the past is a very boring thing, and it’s not important to him.

“I really don’t have one!!”

“Oh, that’s such a pity. I was still hoping to buy some labor back to help my people reduce the burden.”

Xia Yan glanced at him, feeling tactically afraid, shrinking his shoulders and saying nothing.

I remember last time this guy used the word “residents” to refer to those dumb blue coats, but this time he actually started using the word “subjects”.

Will you become a servant directly next time?

It’s so terrible…

This guy must have been a devil in his previous life!

No, in this life!
