Chapter 94: Game Is in Open Beta!
Time passed quickly, more than a month has passed in real life.
But in the game, nearly a year has gone by!
The significant time difference made many players confused, they couldn’t tell which side was reality.
Even though they felt like they had been battling inside the tower for months, when they came out, only a few days had passed outside.
During this period, the game has been updated several times!
From ten thousand players to hundred thousand players, and then expanded to one million players!
The current ninth update has reached an astonishing one billion closed beta players!
Seeing this scene, many players shouted, "What closed beta?!"
When other games had their public tests, there weren’t even tens of millions of people participating, right?!
You have one billion users in closed beta, we might as well just start the public test!
Of course, Chen Ye also thinks so.
His daily revenue has reached an extremely exaggerated level now, which is enough for him to start the public test!
He can’t guarantee anything else, but he can definitely produce enough login devices for one billion users every day.
But this time it won’t be free.
Chen Ye looked at the official website on his computer, where he had already opened a storefront interface.
As of now, players can start pre-ordering the devices.
The options include not only the headset linking device but also custom-made gaming cockpit linking devices!
These devices have different prices, and can meet the basic needs of people from all walks of life.
Of course, people who can’t afford it will still not be able to buy it.
To be honest, let’s be practical and find a job for those who are struggling to make ends meet.
Otherwise, if you die of hunger while playing the game, the blame will fall on Chen Ye.
Chen Ye now has enough resources, so the demand from players naturally decreases gradually.
He doesn’t plan to let all the people on earth enter the game, as everyone will have the chance to experience it gradually after its launch.
This time, it’s completely realistic.
It’s so realistic that if someone is killed in the game, they will die.
Each person only has one life, and once they die, their account will be deleted.
Really?
You see, in the Tower of Seals, many bosses are defeated by players using the Human Wave Tactics of unlimited resurrection!
But what if all this were placed in reality?
With no Human Wave Tactics to use, players are no longer immortal war gods, nor are they the so-called Fourth Catastrophe.
In this mode, if they can reach the fifth level, they are already quite amazing.
Chen Ye had also thought about this situation, so he added a setting to enhance the players.
It’s called Talent Settings!
After the game’s launch, each player will awaken a unique talent ability!
These abilities vary in strength and quality, ranging from F-grade remnants to SSS-level myths.
But awakening this ability is not random, it is based on the player’s soul lifespan value in the game.
A simple and easy-to-understand setting, right?
Your strength in the game depends on your own achievements.
But it’s too early to talk about this.
The so-called game arrival is actually using numbers to illustrate all the mechanisms and contents of the game in reality!
Just like how Chen Ye created masks.
But Chen Ye has only made the first six floors of the Tower of Seals so far.
If the game arrives, there will only be six floors.
So, if Chen Ye wants the game to come to life, he needs to create all one hundred floors of the Tower of Seals at least!
Then make sure to leave enough room in your hand to change the rules of reality at any time when playing.
So, returning to the game, within a year in the game world, the player is always challenging and fighting against Larik.
Whether using Human Wave Tactics or all kinds of tricky tactics, players have tried them all.
But they just can’t defeat Larik!
Even Ye Qiu, who is a reborn person, is confused. When did Larik become so strong?
Was Larik in the previous life really that amazing?
Why does he feel like Larik is getting stronger and stronger?
In fact, Ye Qiu’s feeling is not wrong. Chen Ye added several enhancement patches to Larik in the following versions!
Especially the enhancements to wide-range skills, which directly countered the players’ proud undying Human Wave Tactics!
Many players were secretly cursing at the game designers for being more and more unreasonable!
Chen Ye then said, "You dare to bite me?"
But who are the players? How could they give up just because of a little difficulty?
Holding on to the belief of challenging the game designers to the end, players have been constantly coming up with various tricky strategies and some unconventional ways of playing!
What’s the point of drilling into his crotch to hit his brother?
Pretend to have dust in your mouth, and then blind him with a punch!
Some went even further by using human bombs directly!
One older brother successfully created black powder in the game and kept improving, making several versions of explosives!
It is said that this was sponsored by the Merchant Guild.
The players tied explosive packages to themselves, turning into suicide soldiers, causing 800 damage to enemies while sacrificing 10,000 of their own health!
But there were just too many of them!
Despite Chen Ye always finding and fixing the issues in time.
But these people’s speed in developing strategies is unbelievable!
By the time Chen Ye fixes a bug, they can come up with eighteen more tactics!
Chen Ye had hoped to delay a little longer with this, trying to open the public beta while players were still on the first level.
But unfortunately, these players truly were ruthless, coming up with strategies that no human could think of!
Players are a species without limits, both in terms of skills and cruelty.
They are not humans, they are beasts!
I wonder who came up with the idea to steal Larik’s shoes and spread nails on the ground to poke his feet like that?
Chen Ye could only say, "This time, I can’t protect you."
Within a year of game time.
Ye Qiu kept training hard, almost never challenging Larik anymore.
Instead, he started fighting small monsters, slowly collecting soul lifespan.
After getting the skill, using the reincarnation tactic against the boss was not wise.
If he kept fighting that way, he would become weaker.
Also, with so many players now, the monsters on the first level couldn’t respawn fast enough to match the players’ killing speed!
Meanwhile, the housing situation outside the tower was getting more and more tense.
The players’ houses are almost built near the edge of the map!
Many players are asking the game developers to remove the air wall so they can build freely on a larger map!
Chen Ye didn’t pay attention to this, he just quietly drew a sketch and waited.
Soon, a large number of posts suddenly appeared on the forum in front of him!
Their content was almost the same, with only one main idea!
[Guardian’s first level successfully defeated!]
Chen Ye smiled, he didn’t even need to observe the situation in the game now.
He just needed to keep an eye on the forum.
Players would share anything they found or studied on the forum immediately!
Chen Ye started by cracking different tricky strategies players used.
It’s often said, "Don’t worry if the planner isn’t taking action, worry if the planner is just browsing forums!"
Chen Ye also found that looking at players’ posts directly was much easier than watching the games himself.
First, because the speed of time in the game and in real life is different.
While players seem to have spent several days posting in the game, to Chen Ye, it’s only been a few hours.
Just imagine.
One post per minute, summarizing the game progress for you at any time.
Is it better for Chen Ye to personally watch a year in the game or have all information summarized for him?
Surely the first option.
"So, cheer up, our game is now in open beta!"
