Chapter 375 Do you want to lose in this kind of place? !
As a game producer, it doesn't matter who takes the first place.
Well, that's how it should have been.
But Lin You felt a little unhappy seeing Daxia and his group of players so unsatisfactory.
Xiao Meng leaned over very intimately, shook Lin You's arm gently, and made a suggestion: "Master, why don't we take a look at the progress of all the players? Maybe someone's progress is faster than these anchors, It’s just that it’s not broadcast live?”
Lin You looked at Xiaomeng's expectant eyes, somewhat hesitant.
Of course there is no technical problem - in fact, Xiaomeng can do it by himself.
It's just because Lin You told her: "You can't watch players' real-time game dynamics on a large scale for no reason."
This requirement limits her.
Lin You's restriction is also to protect the privacy of the players.
After all, it's one thing to detect and record game data for all players, it's quite another to watch the game directly.
One is "knowing exactly what the player did", and the other is "seeing what the player did".
In the days of traditional gaming, it was the same thing a lot of the time.
But in the era of virtual reality games, the two cannot be confused at all, because the permissions they require are completely different.
As for what is "large scale"...
The standard given by Lin You is: "If there are no special circumstances, no more than 50 players can be played at one time."
This restriction is somewhat deceptive.
Because if Xiaomeng really wants to watch it, he can divide every 50 players into a group, and then watch it in groups...
But fortunately, Xiaomeng is very obedient and has always been obedient, and has never done anything like this.
When I want to watch the players lively, I usually lie on the sofa with Lin You and watch them indirectly through the live broadcast platform.
The authority in Xiaomeng's hands is basically used only when Lin You needs it.
Just like before, Xiaomeng directly called up the game screens of those 8 players, and they were not live broadcasting.
Xiaomeng's proposal moved Lin You a little.
He wanted to watch it a little bit, but he also felt that it was a bit outrageous to scan the live games of tens of millions of players just to watch the excitement.
Even if there is surplus computing power, it is not such a waste!
However, you can make a compromise!
So Lin You said to Xiaomeng: "It's too exaggerated, let's do it like this, Xiaomeng, you can find the top 100 players who cleared the main line of "League of Assassins" last time, and see their current progress."
He didn't believe it, the number 100 people... No, among the number 98 people, there is no one who doesn't care about the difficulty, and just wants to be the first to pass the level and win the championship trophy!
It's not that after winning the trophy, you can't experience the difficulty again!
"Good!" Xiaomeng waved her little fist excitedly.
The next moment, all the game screens of the players in front of them were swept into the corner.
Rows of game screens were intercepted by Xiao Meng and projected in front of the small sofa.
In each screen, there is a player fighting.
Some people are galloping on the road, some are shooting guns at each other, some are surrounded by siege, some have emptied their bullets and smashed their guns at their opponents, some drew knives and slashed at their opponents, some were overwhelmed by the swarming enemies...
But there are also people waving chips in the casino, some holding hands with beautiful girls and exchanging heartfelt feelings, some wearing bathing suits around the shoulders of beautiful girls taking a bath together, and some dancing wildly with exotic beauties with long chestnut hair in nightclubs...
——The so-called unrecordable storefront has always restricted players, and of course it is impossible to restrict game producers.
Looking at these people who are not doing business, Lin You felt a vein throbbing in his forehead.
"Xiaomeng, get rid of those who are not doing business first!"
"Okay!" Xiaomeng agreed.
Then the neatly arranged 10 by 10 screens in front of them disappeared in an instant, as many as 22!
It's outrageous!
You know, this is not representative, only 22 players are not doing their jobs.
It just means: "At this moment, 22 players are not doing their jobs."
If the time is extended to three days since the game was released, then the number of idle players must far exceed this number!
"I seem to understand something!" Lin You suddenly couldn't help but want to cover his face, "Xiaomeng, look at the data of these 100 players, how many of them have been to nightclubs, custom shops and other places."
"Wait a minute." Xiaomeng's eyes flashed with tiny streamers, and soon she got the answer: "Xiaomeng has seen it! Seventy-three people have been there!"
"Slap!" Lin You slapped himself on the forehead.
"really!"
"The custom shop or something, in the eyes of Daxia players, it is very fresh, and it is full of temptation! It is said that there is food and sex, the opportunity is in front of you, who would not want to go in and see it?"
"But in Izumo, it's a local specialty. Don't say that many people have seen it. I don't know how many people have actually experienced it. The ability to resist temptation is naturally much stronger than that of players in Daxia!"
"This back and forth, the gap in time and progress, won't it be widened?!"
The actual situation was similar to Lin You's imagination.
On the remaining 78 game screens, the players are indeed pushing the game progress, but their game progress is not significantly ahead of the anchors in the speedrun live broadcast.
Even the person who is the most advanced among them is no faster than [Zhu Gan'er]...
It didn't have the effect of "turning the tide" that Lin You wanted.
It can be basically confirmed that places such as "nightclubs" and "custom shops" are indeed an important influencing factor.
But Lin You found that he couldn't do anything about this factor...
What else? A campaign against pornography in Night City?
Go crazy!
Before, the players were angry in their hearts, but luckily they were just giving away things and cursing a few words online.
That's it, it's still hard to be basically appeased.
If these "mysterious stores" are closed for no reason at this juncture, many players may really do something irrational...
"No way! Is it really possible to lose in such an outrageous place?"
Lin You deeply felt that this world was really wonderful and outrageous, but at the same time, he had to make mental preparations in advance to accept that the players of Great Xia might really lose in this competition...
This put him in a bad mood, and he wasn't even in the mood to discuss the new game with Qin Songyun and Fan Rui.
So he sent a message to the two together: "I need to think about the new game again, so I won't discuss it in the afternoon. You can go to your own affairs first, and I will talk about it after I think it through."
Qin Songyun sighed a little when he received the news, but he was really busy, so he turned around and went to follow up on the preparations for the knockout round.
Fan Rui was completely speechless: "What am I busy with? Busy to give the team members a vacation?"
But soon, he received another message from Lin You.
When I opened it, it turned out to be a two-hour film!
Fan Rui, who had already had the experience of "watching a movie", immediately understood: this is a movie specially "made" by the boss for "John Wick 2", so that he can understand the plot of the second part of the game.
Fan Ruiru found a treasure, and immediately explained the work in hand, and began to watch quietly.
*
Lin You himself was paralyzed on the sofa, while watching the live broadcast, while checking the social network from time to time to see the noise of online players.
It wasn't until he was about to go offline for dinner that he suddenly thought of one thing——
There are still serious loopholes in this speedrunning battle: some players are clearing the level with dynamic difficulty, while others are clearing the level with a more difficult fixed difficulty.
But what they are fighting for is the same first-pass championship trophy!
This is obviously unfair!
It was also this loophole that to a certain extent caused those players who were best at "speedrunning" in Daxia to fall directly into a disadvantage in this competition.
"Lessons must be learned!"
Lin You immediately thought of measures to seal the loophole:
For the "Fastest Clearance" achievement trophy for the next game, you must make two sets!
One set remains the same, without any restrictions, whoever completes the main task first will get the trophy.
The other set adds a restriction: the dynamic difficulty adjustment option must be turned off, and the more difficult fixed difficulty is the first to complete the main task!
In this way, the second set of more difficult achievement trophies will obviously become the one with more gold content and more recognition by players.
And in order to ensure that the second set of trophies is more valuable, you can also spend more thought on the design of the trophies to make them more distinctive.
In this way, all hardcore players can be brought back to the same track for fair competition.
Perfect!
"Write it down first, and then synchronize the requirements to each development team in the afternoon."
