My Players Keep Grinding in the Post-Apocalyptic World

Chapter 243: End of the World OL internal beta version 2.3 and...realistic vision

Views:

The official website of "Apocalypse OL" is extremely popular today!

Major version update!

More importantly... Less than a week has passed since the last 100 internal beta test quotas were issued, and a large number of internal beta test qualifications have been released again.

Versions and bugs are actually not something that so many cloud players consider. The known content is already amazingly fun. In the words of players who have already entered the internal beta... If I don't play this game for a day, I feel like ants are crawling all over my body.

Now, the prices of Taobao Ants caused by "Apocalypse OL" have increased.

All players’ expectations are based on the post just released by the game’s chief planner Sentinel.

"End of the World OL" internal beta version 2.3 update announcement

"Recently, a large number of domestic and foreign players have paid attention to our game, with more than 30 million reservations. This has overwhelmed me and my production team. After repeated internal testing and fixing a large number of bugs, the game content has basically no obvious shortcomings. Our team has decided to release more internal testing quotas starting today to meet everyone's love for this game."

"Next, I will select 1,000 new players from the official website to join the internal test, and will randomly select a certain number of players to enter the game every day to enter the regular internal test phase, which is the most important stage before the public test for our team."

“Based on the changes in the game world and our efforts, we have made the latest version 2.3 update. The specific contents are as follows:”

“1. Change the player’s birthplace to Red City, and Red City will officially become the player’s main city;”

“9. Fixed some minor but real bugs.”

“The above is all the content of this version update. The content of this update has been preloaded and will be updated without downtime. I hope everyone will enjoy your game journey of "End of the World OL".

The announcement was long, but the players read it with great interest.

I have my own style: "The announcement is well written. I can vaguely see the elements of other popular game announcements. It is identified as plagiarism. I suggest that the relevant departments quickly check this website. If diamonds are the biggest offline scam in human history, then this game may be the biggest online scam in human history." (Pre-ordered)

I have my own style: "???" (already booked)

The girl's mushroom-picking guy: "What the hell? The website shows players who have made reservations and those who have not!? Didn't you say you would never believe this? You have reported it to the relevant departments many times but to no avail. This...?" (Already made reservations)

I have my own style: "Haha~ Do you think I made a reservation just because I made one? This is just a strategy of this game company to disgust me. They are not happy with me for constantly exposing their facts, so they deliberately try to sow discord between us. If you don't believe me, look at the number one man in the forum, Shadow Night God! He must have been disgusted too!" (Already made a reservation)

Chest Hair Eater: "Indeed, as the most capable representative of confronting game companies, everyone recognizes Ye Shen's character and can objectively reflect whether it is true or false." (Pre-ordered)

October Eats Fish: "@幽影夜神, what do you say?" (Pre-ordered)

Shadow Night God: "It's so funny! It's a well-known fact that I made the reservation. I wanted to get to know the game company and expose their inside story. So what if I admit it openly? Why should I pretend to be a clown?" (Internal beta player)

Shadow Night God: “???” (Internal test player)

The little mushroom picking girl: "???"

Netizens: “???”

At this moment, there are too many question marks to count.

Shadow Night God: "Fuck! This official is messing around! I'm going to complain to them! I won't say any more, bye!"

Lin Tang: "Damn it, you look like a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but I didn't expect you to be this kind of person? When did you enter the game? Why didn't I see Shadow Night God's name? You are still lurking, right? Don't let me find your true identity!"

Sentinel's little fangirl: "That's right! Dare to do it but not take the responsibility! Disgusting! What I hate most is this kind of double standard dog! You laugh at me for being a dog licker, but at least I lick openly and honestly, and I won't be a person who doublespeaks. You can rest assured to be friends with my fangirl! I am in Feisha City, the great leader of the plunderers, and I look forward to everyone coming to my side to level up!" (Internal beta player)

Legendary Borer: "Good! It has to be a fangirl! Licking is a strategy. I heard from a high-end player in our game that... Strategic compliments are a must for this kind of open world game!"

Xigou: "I seem to have heard someone say this... It sounds so familiar."

Lin Tang: "Yeah, I always hear someone say it, but I can't remember."

Demon fox: “?”

Wei Long: "@Sentinel, planner, what are the criteria for selecting the 1,000 players for the closed beta test this time? I have a lot of players with special skills for you to choose from. Just tell me what type you need."

Sentinel: "Okay, I understand."

Cheng Shaofeng could easily guess Wei Long's identity, but would he dare to use so many official people? Would he get himself into trouble

After thinking about it carefully, Cheng Shaofeng felt that his worries were a bit unnecessary.

"They and I are not in the same world, so how can they attack me through the Internet?"

"These people... are indeed extraordinary, and are very organized and disciplined. Without their planning and performance, the capture of Red City would not have been so fast. They helped me a lot."

Special talents like Long Yi are really useful.

Cheng Shaofeng now has plans to contact other cities. It would be good to have more talents from all aspects.

Sentinel: "Wei Long, do you have anyone who is good at diplomacy?"

Wei Long: “???”

Sentinel: "Don't get me wrong. The game has opened up a lot of neutral cities recently. I want to test the AI in the game's diplomacy to see if players will find a bug that causes a large amount of resources from the outside cities to flow into the hands of players and bases..."

Wei Long: "Oh! I see! The classic gameplay of the Civilization series! Our game is not only about grinding, but also about fighting national wars, city wars, and trade wars! United city-states will get more help, right!"

Sentinel: "Yes, yes, yes! You understand it exactly!"

Wei Long: "Don't worry! Leave it to me. I will make sure my brothers use the best means to test the bugs! Find all the diplomatic loopholes in the game!"

Sentinel: "That's a big help!"

What a fucking civilization!

Fuck the bugs!

Go and make money for me, earn resources! It's a great feat to establish unequal trade with other cities!

For other beta test players, Cheng Shaofeng found some players with relatively normal behavioral logic. As Cheng Shaofeng's intelligent assistant, Zero has already figured out his preferences and can always screen out players with good conditions for him and select them quickly.

After this batch of internal test quotas were released, Cheng Shaofeng breathed a sigh of relief.

“The level gap between new and old players is a bit big this time... Although the places where old players used to clear monsters are now vacated, there are too many new players this time, so we have to find more monster gathering points for the new players to spawn.”

In fact, players have encountered many monsters along their previous travel routes. By walking further, they can find suitable monsters to level up.

Cheng Shaofeng didn't know why the world was full of all kinds of monsters, as if it was polluted...

Fortunately, after occupying Red City, we had many means of transportation and no longer had to rely on dozens of horses.

The trolleybuses used in the city and the single-person mountain balance bikes used outside are both means of transportation that players can use on a daily basis.

The tires of those single-person mountain balance bikes are super big, and the shock absorption system is very well made. They can be used as if they were on flat ground on rugged mountain roads.

There is also a repair station in Hongcheng, so if something breaks down, it can be repaired.

Red City was once a rare technological city in the wasteland, rich in various resources. This small item is only a part of it. There are also many practical facilities that can bring a lot of convenience to the players in the base.

After this announcement was released, Cheng Shaofeng deliberately asked Zero to add a setting to display the player's status.

Because... when you are famous, you are prone to gossip. It has been very popular recently. "Apocalypse OL" is in the news both at home and abroad. It has become the top star in the gaming circle.

Although it is still in internal testing, it is already foreseeable how much of the gaming market will be snatched away once it is publicly tested in the future, which makes many major game companies unable to sit still.

There is no need to say much about the Penguin factory. The main person in charge personally greets Cheng Shaofeng every day and promises to pay an astronomical sum to buy this game. That money... is enough to ensure that Cheng Shaofeng and his descendants will have no worries about food and clothing.

After money failed to buy it, Penguin even wanted to give Cheng Shaofeng shares to merge the two companies, and promised never to interfere with the production of game content, only making some suggestions on operations, but Cheng Shaofeng and his team would still be the main ones.

They were so humble that they knelt down and begged Cheng Shaofeng to sell the game to them.

In response to this, Cheng Shaofeng said... there is nothing he can do.

Not to mention other gaming companies, Cheng Shaofeng has already blocked a lot of people to prevent them from harassing him every day.

So... many companies became more and more evil. Since they couldn't get it, they decided to destroy "Apocalypse OL"!

They arranged a large number of online trolls to post messages to discredit "End of the World Online" and questioned the practicality of virtual reality technology in various public media, exaggerating the harm, and fabricated multiple examples of people who became vegetative after participating in virtual reality brain-computer technology...

Trying to make all players afraid of this game.

But the interesting thing is... these internet trolls are cursing "Apocalypse OL" while happily making reservations and preparing to have fun on their own.

Work is work, life is life, don't delay the two.

Although for Cheng Shaofeng... it's not very harmful, but it's extremely disgusting.

Now many parents who don't know the truth have started to scold him... saying that he has corrupted their children. Every day they just want to put on the helmet and play games. If they can't play, they feel uncomfortable all over, as if they have a strange disease called "ants crawling", which is similar to floaters!

The parents criticized and scolded their children in a very harsh way, as if they could cover up their failure in education by scolding all those who made games...

As a result, whenever Cheng Shaofeng entered Quantum Surfing recently, he was bombarded with defense speeches, and even Zero couldn't block them out.

So, he turned on this function to let everyone see the faces of these internet trolls as they cursed and made reservations at the same time.

Sure enough, public opinion reversed instantly, just like the effect after the last regional real-name system was implemented on the Internet!

How many foreign IPs are playing tricks and playing the role of black...

When netizens came to their senses, all the internet water army were exposed.

They want to change their account... but their IP has been locked by number zero. When they change their account, their real status will be displayed and others can see their historical comments.

A direct cleansing operation was carried out on the official website of "Apocalypse OL", and the official website quickly returned to the previous atmosphere where everyone was enthusiastically discussing the content of the game.

In this way, Cheng Shaofeng can at least find some useful suggestions from it.

This updated version contains a lot of content, and the beta testers are actively preparing for it.

Player 'Xufeng' was thoughtful after seeing this.

"I came here more than a week in advance... Have I finally been exposed now? Fortunately, I have taken the lead and gained a lot of advantages."

Wasteland world, frontline battlefield.

Wu Xiu commander Wang Zhong shouted, "Platoon leader Xu Feng, step out!"

"Today, your platoon will go to Mengsha Town to clear out the newly arrived zombie outpost. The undead comrades around here have already lurked there and will lend you a helping hand at the critical moment!"

Xufeng saluted as a military salute of the Human Alliance soldiers.

"yes!"

If there is a player from the Scourge Base nearby, he can see through the watch that there is a level 29 sign above his head.

"I heard that you guys leveled up very quickly in Red City?"

... ...

While a large number of players are discussing the content of the game, there are some people above who are not concerned about the game... but about something they care about more.

"Wei Long, tell all the brothers who participated in the game's internal test to log off and come to our physical fitness testing center. Your data... is abnormal!"

Magic City, villa area.

Dong Dong Dong~

There was a knock on Xigou's door.

Outside the door was Old White, a muscular bodybuilder, carrying his luggage.

Xigou punched Laobai: "Alright! With your size... I know a lot of rich women, they must love you to death."

Lao Bai smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Don't joke with me, little dog giant, I'm really a little scared... Have you noticed that the starry sky is getting brighter and brighter recently?"

When it comes to business, Xigou also becomes serious. He looks up at the moonlight in the sky, as if he can see a "falcon"-shaped constellation in the sky through the clouds.

"Yeah, I felt it too, especially after lighting up the second planet of the constellation in Red City."
