Chapter 290: God feeds you
Chapter 290 God feeds you
At this time, not only the players, but also everyone at Nitiantian Games were a little stunned.
At this time, Zhou Yang’s computer had a full-level account for the “Protoss World” test server.
He also developed the Dark Chain talent and drove stakes in the main city.
With a flash of lightning, all kinds of dark spells are flying all over the sky, which is so cool.
“Damn it, what kind of bad luck is this Shengjing Group? It’s like God feeds you!”
Zhou Yang was very unhappy.
It is clear that Shengjing Group completely copied the all-professional gameplay of "Shadow World" and modified the old game "Protoss World", but now it is almost more popular than the original version!
Where can I get some reasoning here?
Zhao Haiquan was a little surprised: "Hey, in our game, there doesn't seem to be such a perverted BD. Why?"
Su Tong, who was still playing "Shadow World", was silent for a moment, and then said: "Maybe it's because our programmers and testing team are more reliable than them..."
Zhou Yang couldn't help but put his hands on his forehead. He never imagined that one day, the programmers and testing team would be too reliable and it would become a disadvantage.
Even short video platforms are more popular than long video platforms.
The bad news is that this is obviously not as good as perverted BDs like infinite starlight milk and dark chain!
Videos about "Protoss World" are soaring in popularity, whether on long video platforms or short video platforms, they are spreading rapidly, which further increases the popularity of the game.
On the damage statistics panel, this player's damage volume was so high that other players could no longer even see the taillights.
The other one is also in the group version. There are a large number of elite mobs in front. When the dark chain player goes down with a lightning chain, the screen is darkened by the special effects of various dark spells. The yellow damage numbers on the screen are floating randomly. When the black special effects in front of him dissipated, there were only corpses left on the ground.
The latter is also due to the linkage effect of skills and talents, which is beyond the expectations of designers and programmers.
What about "Shadow World"? So far, the balance of various BDs has been maintained within an acceptable range.
The ones that have gone viral the most so far are two short video clips.
Although there are some BDs that are obviously very strong and very enjoyable, they are not significantly different from other BDs. What's more, many BDs themselves require specific sets and specific attribute equipment to achieve the best results.
The former is because the critical strike of the Starlight Illumination skill mistakenly triggers the effect of the talent, so that you can reduce your own cooldown time. Coupled with the free mana-consuming effect of free casting, you can achieve unlimited Starlight Illumination.
These programmers at Shengjing Group work overtime from dawn to dusk every day. It would be great if they can fix serious bugs that affect the operation of the game on a large scale. How can they have time to test and modify these deeper things.
The good news is that the balance is indeed okay.
There are so many skills, talents, and linkage methods in the game, so it’s impossible to test them all.
One is in the team copy, the infinite starlight milk keeps releasing starlight, and players have their own spotlights on their heads. The health bar keeps dropping and adding up, and the screen is full of green characters floating around. The visual effect is simply explosive.
This is quite normal. After all, this project only took more than a month from project establishment to launch.
Obviously, these two super cool BDs of "Protoss World" are based on bugs.
Any player who has played mmorpg games can feel a huge sense of satisfaction from these two short videos, and this has become the reason why many players have flocked to the "Protoss World" test server.
In Zhou Yang’s words, it is indeed God who feeds us!
Different from Zhou Yang's envy and hatred, Wei Chengjie seemed quite calm, and it could even be said that his expression was a bit serious. “To be honest, based on my understanding of Shengjing Group...
“This is not necessarily a good thing.”
Zhou Yang was a little puzzled: "How could it not be a good thing?"
Wei Chengjie did not answer directly. He checked that it was past the time to get off work, so he picked up the small bag on the table and prepared to leave.
“It’s hard to say, let’s keep looking at it later.”
…
The employees of Nitiantian are off work.
But the "Protoss World" project team is in a state of complete chaos.
I’m confused, everyone is confused!
In the conference room, Ji Heng was furious, scolding the test team leader, functional designer, numerical designer and several programmers.
“Obviously it’s old code from an old game, and it’s been tested so many times, how come there’s such an outrageous bug?
"How can the Dark Chain talent be triggered by elemental skills? Starlight can actually reduce its own CD? How is this code written?"
A programmer said weakly: "Mr. Ji, after all, this is an old code from four years ago. The programmer who wrote this function at that time had already left his job for more than two years..."
Ji Heng frowned: "Then when you programs were developing new versions, didn't you notice that there was a problem with this?
“And you guys, why didn’t you detect something so obvious when your test team tested it??”
Everyone was scolded to death. Although everyone was dissatisfied, the leader was so angry that he did not dare to stand up and argue.
The program team has something to say, these codes are all piled up for four years, and they are inexplicably related to each other!
This time the development time of "Spirit Ascension Mode" is already short. We were able to integrate the skills and talents of all professions in a surprise attack. With only a few bugs, this is already a sign of strong research and development capabilities, isn't it?
The design team also said that there is no problem with our design, but this is a program bug! What's the matter with you scolding us all together...
As for the test group, it’s even more unjust. This game has too much content, so many skills and talents, can we test them all in such a short time?
In the end, the design team is more organized. After all, from a clear perspective, they are the ones who should not take the blame.
One of the functional planners raised his hand and said: "Mr. Ji, the matter is over, let's solve the problem first! We will change it as you say."
Ji Heng nodded slightly: "In short, such a serious bug must be fixed as soon as possible. You should fix it first and then test it a few times. Don't fix the old bug and create a new one. After the repair is completed, we will find an early morning emergency stop time.
“Also, the compensation plan and announcement content this time must be finalized as soon as possible, so as to provide as much compensation to the players as possible.”
However, just when Ji Heng was about to explain it in detail, someone came over and greeted him: "Mr. Ji, Mr. Kang asked you to come over."
Ji Heng nodded: "I understand, I'll go right away."
Then he looked at the other people in the conference room: "Go fix the bug immediately!"
