This Game Is Too Realistic-Novel

Chapter 102 A Big Wave Of Newbies Is Incoming!

Official website forum:

"Breaking news! The female mercenary was flirting with Shelter 404 administrator ‘Dawn'!"

"Shocking news! The administrator slept with a female mercenary!"

"It was said that they did it for five days straight!"

"Their child is already 5 months old!"

"We are all adults who can play games for seven days a week. Please be mature! Don't be so naive! So what about the process animation? What about the plot CG? How could they skip it? No CG, bad review!"

"Hahaha, you guys think NPCs can't surf the Internet, so you can spread rumors about them without losing their favorability? Hahaha."

Not only were the test players excited, but the non-test players were also joining the post for fun.

At this moment, the artist [The_Escaping_Mole] in the forum jumped out and created a post separately.

"Here are the drafts! (Picture) (Picture) (Picture)"

Ya Ya: "!!!"

Teng_teng: "Is, is this something you can read without spending money? (Nosebleed)"

Night Ten: "Brother Mole is da best!"

Ample Time: "Awesome!!!"

The_Escaping_Mole: "Hey hey hey, don't panic brothers, it's just a draft, please wait for me to color them!"

["The_Escaping_Mole" is banned by the moderator for 12 hours]

Old White: "?!"

Irene: "Danger! (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ”

Light: "Don't post strange pictures. All obscene pictures will be prohibited in the future. Although our server complies with local laws and regulations, we are a serious company and the game is also a serious game. Please restrain yourself and don't post any pictures that are not family-friendly."

Although the qualifications for the game were only issued to adults, anyone could enter the official website. There were people of all ages on the forum, so such obscene pictures were really not suitable to be uploaded onto the forum.

Wasteland Online was a fun-oriented game that focuses on "easy entertainment and leisure development". There were no obscene scenes. This game would not promote micro-transaction, let alone pornography.

If anyone posted obscene pictures, the first-time offender would receive a formal warning and be banned for a certain period of time, the second-time offender would be directly listed on the dangerous account lists, and the third-time offender would be permanently IP banned and kicked out of the game.

Since Chu Guang discovered that Little Seven could operate the computer instead of himself, Chu Guang even let Little Seven manage it.

After all, if it was manual management, he really couldn't handle thousands of posts every day.

In addition to this, Chu Guang had also instructed Little Seven to highlight interesting strategy posts for him, so he could take a look at them when he was free.

He needed to pay more attention to those highlights.

What if there are some good ideas?

Then those ideas can be added to the alpha 0.6 version.

Night Ten: "Damnnit, I thought mods were asleep!"

Big_eyes_in_debt: "I see, so the game designer will only come out if someone posts obscene pictures!"

Good_names_are_taken_by_dogs: "Spread the words around, the game designer was reading NSFW posts during work hours!"

Chu Guang: "..."

Gee.

This bunch of trolls!

Ample Time: "Alas! I feel sorry for my Old Brother Mole. He just drew a few pictures, but he got ruthlessly punished. It's so miserable!"

Teng_teng: "Since you can't draw the doujinshi of the administrator and the female mercenary, how about... Brother Mole, how about changing the female mercenary to a male? (oﾟ▽ﾟ)o "

Night Ten: "I propose to draw Teng Teng and Ya Ya!"

Gale: "Second this!!!"

Irene: "Teng Teng and Ya Ya (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ”

WC_really_has_mosquitoes: "!!! Goblin Industry will sponsor one silver coin!"

Ya Ya: "What the hell?? (。 Д 。;)"

Teng_teng: "(❀‵□′)✄╰☋╯"

...

With the end of the transaction with Horseshoe Firm, the time soon came to October.

As the vast majority of experienced survivors predicted, this year's winter came earlier than ever.

It was just the beginning of October, but the daily average temperature on the surface had dropped from single digits to below zero. As the howling cold wind and falling snow swept the ground, it only took one night for the snow on the surface to build up from sole-deep to knee-deep.

Fortunately, the snow did not keep falling.

On this rare sunny day, this endless ruin ushered in a group of energetic and enthusiastic new players.

They awakened from the comfort of the culture chambers.

Looking at the extremely real bodies and the surrounding environment before them, they were shocked, surprised, and even ecstatic to a point that they couldn't breathe.

Chu Guang locked the permission to open the door and gave them ten minutes to put on clothes and adjust their emotions so that they would not do shameless things in public.

Then he used the broadcast to remind them to gather in the central lobby on the B2 floor.

"Holy shit! Holy shit!….! It is really a virtual reality technology!"

"Shocking, I'm not dreaming, am I!?"

"Pinch me!... Huh? Why doesn't it hurt at all?"

"You idiot! Didn’t you learn anything after waiting on the official website for more than half a month!? It is pain shielding, do you understand pain shielding?"

"Hehehe, can you open it? I want to open it..."

"...???"

Facing these shocked newcomers, the old players were not surprised. After all, they also had similar reactions in the past.

In addition, new players always entered the game batch by batch, so it had become one of the traditions or fun of this game to see the embarrassing behaviors of new players.

"Oh my. That guy is not bad. He isn't surprised at all, he must be a veteran player."

"How do you know that he is not scared silly? Look at those pupils, they are all dilated."

"Alas, the qualities of this batch of new people are not that great, their psychological endurance is not strong, and their surprised reactions are too exaggerated."

"Give me a break! You even have the audacity to say this! I clearly remember that when you just entered the game, you even wanted to take off your pants in front of everyone, but you were stopped by the people around you."

"Okay, okay, you can shut up."

Chu Guang also watched.

He was waiting for everyone to arrive.

At this moment, several screams suddenly came from behind the crowd.

Chu Guang looked up and found a white bear with a length of about 2.5 meters, holding on to the door frame timidly, its bear face popping out from the north entrance of the square nervously.

"How, how come I'm all hairy?"

Many players nearby were taken aback, and instinctively moved away.

"Holy shit! There is a bear!"

"Bear?! Where?"

"Wow!"

The old players were rather calm.

After all, there was even a Lizardman in the shelter, so what was so strange about having a bear?

This game would occasionally give out special accounts, either with special talents or with a genetic sequence different from that of normal players.

As for Chu Guang?

He was even calmer.

After each player logged in, their genetic sequences would be updated in the [Player List] provided by the system. He was also the first to see that player's attribute panel.

[ID: Roshan

Genetic sequence: Mutant - Bear

Level: Lv.0

——Basic attributes——

Strength: 9

Agility: 6

Physique: 7

Perception: 7

Intelligence: 3

]

[ Talent:

Cold Resistance (Highly resistant to severe cold, not good at hot environments, and subject to additional burn damage.)

Work Hard But Not Smart (Higher endurance, difficult to operate complex machinery)

Physical Regeneration (Stronger resilience, difficult in leveling genetic sequence)

]

The agility, physique, and perception of this player were 1 point lower than that of Mr. Garbage; the strength was 1 point higher than that of Mr. Garbage, and the intelligence was 1 point higher.

Of course, the above comparison was using the stats of Mr. Garbage when he was still at LV.0, but now Mr. Garbage was at LV.2.

Although the initial attributes of the "mutants" sequence were generally stronger than those of the five mainstream sequences, the growth-weakening debuff that came with the mutants sequence was a serious flaw.

Such as Mr. Garbage.

Obviously, he was the first few players who entered the game, but his level had been suppressed in the second echelon for quite a while. He had been playing the game for more than half a month but he was still only Lv. 2, which was really embarrassing.

Moreover, the characteristics of "Work hard but not smart" made them more inclined to engage in primitive activities, and it was difficult for them to operate the equipment as easily as normal humans.

Still using Mr. Garbage as an example. Even if the trigger and grip were improved, it was difficult for him to operate light weapons.

Anyway, Chu Guang's feeling was that this guy had given up using a gun and had completely embarked on the path of physical evolution. If he could fight in close combat, he would, but if he couldn’t, he would throw javelins.

Most players were happy to team up with him.

After all, who wouldn’t love tanks?

If he couldn't get behind the enemy lines, he would be a target, but if he could, it would be a massacre!

When new players first saw the bear, they were all panicked, but after discovering that this bear seemed to be very timid, they leaned forward curiously.

At this time, a short-haired female player named [Tail] quickly walked around and curiously stretched out her hand to grab the tail of [Roshan], which scared the bear to jump forward.

"What are you doing!"

Tail smiled. "Bro, your account is really awesome! How much did you pay for this account?"

"I, I, I, I applied for it normally and waited for a long time. As for how to spend money on this game, there is no option for me to pay."

Another long-haired female player named [Sisi] came over as well, and curiously pulled the fluffy tail, scaring the bear into leaning its back against the wall.

"Speaking of which, why are you using such a strange name, Roshan?"

"I, I, I, I wanted to be called Rosan, but I made a typo. This game doesn’t have a rename function, so I can’t change it.."

Sisi suddenly smiled evilly.

"Understood, I will go to the forum to register an alt account called Rosan."

"Please don’t…."

Tail touched her chin and thought for a while, then her right fist suddenly hit the palm of the other hand.

"It's decided, I'll call you Roro from now on! And you will be my mount. Wait, let me check if you have that thing first."

Roro almost wanted to cry.

"Go- go away! I'm a girl!"

Tail laughed even more happily.

"It's okay, me too! Hurry up and let me check it!"

Sisi: "Hey! Are you a pervert?"

"Of course not, how can a woman be a pervert!"

After a lot of noise, Tail finally let go of the bear in disappointment, and smacked her lips. "Tsk, there’s nothing."

Needless to say, this furry animal was still very attractive to female players.

The sad thing was, this bear was very timid and was not domineering at all. If it was the mutant brown bears on the wasteland, they could even kill a creeper with just one slap.

But having said that, if players in the mutants sequence didn't have those organs. Was this RoRo bear a male bear or a female bear?

Emmm...

Whatever.

This question was too difficult for Chu Guang.

He decided to just stick to the player's gender.

After all the players arrived at the lobby, Chu Guang cleared his throat loudly to signal them to be quiet.

Then, Chu Guang said in a solemn voice.

"The war is over."

"The bad news, however, is that our world has changed beyond recognition."

"Now is the 200th year after the war. Fortunately, we have successfully survived the most difficult years. To be able to stand here means that you are already more fortunate than 12 billion people. But now I need you to recognize the current situation as soon as possible and then fulfill your declaration under the banner of the Federation of People!"

"The one next to me is my assistant, its name is Little Seven. You can ask it any questions about shelter or things you don't understand."

Just like many times before, Chu Guang announced the rules and regulations of the shelter to the hundred players who had just climbed out of the culture chambers as the administrator of the shelter.

The "cutscenes" of each player when they just entered the game were the same, but the "alpha 0.5 version" was slightly different from the previous versions. Chu Guang had added a special task for old players who had reached the citizen level.

That was, to help newbies to level up.

All players who had reached the level of citizenship and received a VM device could receive the mission of "Passing The Torch" in the mission system.

The mission content was very simple.

Players who received the mission could choose up to three newbies and become their "novice guides", as long as they could help them to level up from Lv0 to Lv1 within a week, they would receive 100 contribution points and 10 silver coins as rewards.

100 contribution points were not attractive to players who reached the citizen level, but the reward of 10 silver coins was still very attractive.

Like the strength type, as long as they kept cutting down the tree until they were exhausted, they could almost reach Lv1 by simply cutting trees two days in a row.

Other sequences’ leveling required some skills. But basically, except for the intelligence type, it was not too difficult to level up from Lv0 to Lv1, and they could almost complete the mission in about three days.

While leading people to level up, they could also do other tasks to make money, and they could also bring three minions at a time. This was basically easy money, so why not do it?

In addition, newcomers with genetic sequence level Lv0 could also receive the related task of "Passing The Torch" through the public notice in the lobby.

They could choose a "shelter veteran" with VM equipment to serve as their "novice guide".

As long as they leveled up to Lv1, they could get 80 contribution points and 8 silver coins, which was basically equivalent to the normal 12-hour income of new players.

This numerical design was very reasonable.

The reason for launching the mission of "Passing The Torch" was to allow the newbies to quickly become familiar with the game so as not to run around blindly like headless flies. In addition, it was to integrate them into Shelter 404.

Especially the latter.

For a class of 100 people, even changing seats would change the class environment, let alone suddenly doubling the number of people.

Chu Guang knew very well that the biggest challenge brought by the alpha 0.5 version update was not the server's CPU, but the impact of new players on the Wasteland Online server environment.

After all, this kind of game with a high threshold, hardcore elements, and a "virtual community" as its selling point was determined by its gameplay and the server environment. They were above everything else.

It was like a normal online game. When everyone was having fun, but suddenly, it became free for a limited time on weekends; it would instantly become impossible to have fun if there were a few bad players joining the game.

Just like a certain game called Squad.

A new person could become a nightmare for the whole team. Especially when the dumb player grabbed the only "sniper" or RPG in the team, or even got into the vehicle team to become a vehicle driver, it would be the beginning of the nightmare.

But could you blame them?

Not entirely.

Everyone came from newbies. Except for trolls who would take pleasure in destroying the game experience of others, most people would learn.

As long as someone was willing to teach, new players would still be willing to learn. In this way, the server environment would naturally get better.

In fact, from the perspective of making money, the normal logic was to drive away the old players who had paid for the game and let those few bad players run around on the server doing anything they liked. In this way, it could not only make those bad players become addicted to the game, but also stimulate consumption. When bad players become addicted to trolling, the server would immediately ban them, which may annoy the trolls and make them open a few more accounts to attack the server. But what those trolls wouldn’t know was that this would only boost the game sales.

For example, the practice used by a certain game studio called blue something hole.

But was Chu Guang that kind of person?

What was the use of money?

It was useless to him!

Wasteland Online would rather operate at a loss to give players the best gaming experience and maintain the best server environment to the end!

"With VM, friends and team systems can be rolled out soon. All of these features are great tools for maintaining the social ecosystem of an MMORPG."

"When there are more players in the future, the gap in level, wealth, and combat power will widen, and the guild system can be gradually developed."

"A powerful guild will then be able to be upgraded to a legion, and can be sent out to explore wasteland or fight."

"Mhm, the guild and the legion can be associated with the player’s status level. A player who made enough contributions to the shelter can become a ruler of the explored land, a guild leader, and even a legion leader."

"I'm really a genius!"

Looking at the players who were already starting to look for team members in the lobby, Chu Guang's expressionless face couldn't help revealing a smile of satisfaction.

Very good.

These new players are growing vigorously.
