This Game is Too Real

   Chapter 312 The strategic depth played out

   Dawn City Prison.

   Sitting in the dark cell, Bernie's face was full of haggard and depression.

He can understand the failure of the    expedition to the Great Rift Valley. They did underestimate the strength of the Great Rift Valley, and even underestimated the Holy Shield system.

   Even after two centuries, the shield that covered the sky and the sun was still not pierced by their cannonballs. Their clone army launched a fearless charge, but it still failed to change the situation of the battle.

   Under the firepower of the Great Rift Valley, their 10,000-strong team was annihilated by the formation.

   However, what Bernie couldn't understand was that it was just that he couldn't win the Great Rift Valley.

   At this time, footsteps came from the corridor outside the prison.

   Bernie raised his head and saw a familiar face, and he couldn't help but stunned.

   "...Vanus?"

  Vanus sighed.

   "Sure enough it's you... Is Dillon okay?"

   Hearing the name of his boss, a wry smile appeared on Bernie's face.

   "No wonder... seeing you here has answered some of the questions in my mind."

   Knowing that this guy probably took the credit for his victory, Vanus shook his head.

   "It has nothing to do with me, I just made plans step by step and used the most lawful tactics... However, their performance exceeded my expectations."

   Bernie was silent for a while.

   "I remember you were ordered to intercept the Trailblazer."

  Vanus nodded.

"Yes."

   Bernie didn't ask about the end result.

   Because there is no need to ask.

  This guy is standing here, with no shackles on his hands, and even hanging a VM of the same style as the blue jackets, no doubt his body and mind have changed into the shape of those people.

   Seeing that Bernie didn't speak, Vanus walked to the window of the cell and continued talking to himself.

   "When I was captured, I was sent to work in a brick factory by them. At first I thought they were going to humiliate me in this way, but in the end I found out that it was not what I thought at first."

   "Working with me are the nearby survivors, they taught me how to make mud bricks from brick embryos, how to burn mud bricks into bricks, how to build bricks into houses..."

  Vanus paused for a moment.

"I still remember that co-worker. I remember that day when he told me that he was so excited that he finally got his own house through his hard work. When he planned to take over his family after the winter, those eyes full of longing were What color... that's something I've never seen on my territory."

   "At first I didn't understand what the color written in his pupils was, until later I gradually understood that it was hope for the future."

"They chose a path very different from ours, a path where even the poorest wastelanders can achieve equality and dignity. The people who live here are willing to give everything, even everything, for the land under their feet. The last drop of blood."

   "You are facing a group of fighters with faith. They clearly know why they are fighting. Do you still think that you lost because of a few tactical mistakes?"

   Bernie's Adam's apple moved.

   lowered his head and pondered for a long time, he said with a wry smile.

   "Are you here just to make fun of your old friend?"

"No."

  Vanus turned to look at him.

   "Accurately speaking, an invitation."

  …

   The night is getting late.

  As players go offline one after another, the official website forum of “Wasteland OL” is very lively at the moment.

   During the epic victory during the day, many players were excited and described the situation vividly on the forum.

In the past, everyone boasted that they could only narrate in words, and they couldn’t get dry goods. Cloud players listened to their own brains. Although they said that they were awesome, they were really envious in their hearts, but to say how shocking they were, it was actually like that. Satisfy your hunger with the cakes drawn by the official PV.

   Now it’s different.

  Since the paid features such as "game screenshots" and "squad voices" were developed, everyone boasted that they would no longer need to type, just upload the picture and it's over.

   Of course, considering the factors of harmony and love, blood will be replaced with pink paint, R16 and some sensitive pictures will limit synchronization.

   After all, there is no "dream filter" after taking off the helmet. Dreaming of a broken arm and a broken leg in a dream will not necessarily be frightened, but in reality, it is not impossible to be scared to pee on the spot.

Picking up trash, level 99: "...It's too late to say that it's too fast. The predator just pointed the gun at me, and I directly shoveled and took away two in an instant! Not to brag, there are 100 heads in ten minutes, xenogeneic species. The sequence is really strong! (bars teeth

Ye Ao Nai me: "Die laughing, that's all? Ten minutes and a hundred heads are too embarrassed to pretend? Have you heard of the dragon group? It's normal for children who haven't heard of it, my brother is from the dragon group. He told me, The best one in their team can kill a company with a dagger, and he can kill two back and forth in ten minutes."

   Picking up garbage level 99: Sweaty Soybeans

  Ye Shi: "Uh, is it a dragon? I have that one. (funny

  Irena: "If you don't understand, ask, does your brother have a nickname called Shura, and the corners of his mouth rise ninety degrees before every shot. (funny

   Elf Wang Fugui: "Ministry of Foreign Affairs: I advise you not to talk nonsense, this is not an intranet. (funny

as usual.

Every time there is a big event or major update on the official website, Brother Yeao will come out and make a group ridicule when everyone is pretending to be hilarious, and then immediately disappear from the forum. similar.

   Both players and cloud players have become accustomed to it, but no one cares about it.

   Soon Jun Jun continued to talk about his heroic achievements, but at this moment, the battle report and settlement information of the Qingshi County victory suddenly logged on the official website.

   Picking up trash at level 99: "Damn it? Was it so fast this time?!"

  Quit Smoking: "Planning to be bully!"

   Usually the battle report has to wait until the next day to see it, but this time it came out on the same night.

   Contrary to everyone's expectations, the Storm Corps had the highest score on the battlefield this time.

   As the first corps to break through the inner defense line of the city and enter the enemy's headquarters, the Storm Corps captured Lion Fang and other bandit leaders alive and gained a lot of extra points when they encountered fierce resistance from the enemy.

   But this is not the decisive factor.

   The weight that really determines his war score is the lightning-fast advance speed when he starts street battles with looters in the city.

  Brother Quan Shui, with his excellent command, led the team to destroy two centenarians in a row. It only took half the expected time to penetrate all the defense lines from the south of Qingshi County to the enemy headquarters.

   It is no exaggeration to say that the outstanding combat performance of the Storm Corps in the battle made the end of the battle at least an hour earlier.

  Comprehensive casualties and ammunition consumption, the headquarters gave it an evaluation of 23,000 points!

  The second place is the Mole Brother's Skeleton Corps, which won a high score for its outstanding performance in the tough battle, and the third is the Death Corps.

  Although the latter had a higher kill count and eliminated the hidden dangers in corridors and alleys, nearly 30% of the battle damage lowered their total score.

   As for Mosquito's Goblin Corps, it was ranked fourth.

   It is undeniable that the rockets launched by it and the air strikes of the planes have caused heavy losses to the Lion Fang tribe stationed in Qingshi County.

   However, the battle damage of the Goblin Corps itself is not low.

   The player who finally successfully drove the plane back was less than 30% of the total...

   As for the Burning Corps, because the ambush at Songlinyu was not settled together with the siege at Qingshi County, but as two separate battles, it ranked fifth.

  WC is really full of mosquitoes: "Hey! There are so many people in our group! Why isn't the MVP me! (Crazy

Commander Quan Shui: "You don't understand this. It's not about scalping in war, so maybe it's counted by head. If it's really counted by head, those who dig trenches and guard points will go to the front of K's head. , who cares about the back. (proud

  Ye Ten: "It's too much ammo consumption. You smashed through this round of rockets, and the logistics went straight to the sky. (Funny

  The fleeing mole rat in the canyon: "That's right! Just looking at the hair on the head, the first line of defense was captured by me!"

  The edge of the water: "How many of your planes did you fly back?"

  WC really has mosquitoes: "Any good brothers know when the campaign rewards will arrive, hehe."

  Quitting: "Damn it! This topic is too blunt!"

  Luoyu: "It's too hard to drive this broken plane. T.T"

  The edge of the water: "Hey, what is it saying that I have a black car, who is the black car!"

  The property kills the chicken: "Well, the ammunition consumption of our jungle corps seems to be a little high, scratching my head."

  The ranking of battlefield scores is for reference only.

The settlement of    campaign rewards will be calculated by a set of fixed formulas based on the performance of each corps in each stage of the mission.

  The server will directly issue a basic reward containing a large amount of silver coins and contribution points to the player based on the total score of the corps to which the player belongs.

  The commander of the corps can also award 1~3 merits to the outstanding players according to the performance of the team members in the battle, so that they can get 50~150% of the additional rewards on the basis of the original rewards.

   The number of merits that can be awarded in a battle is linked to the points obtained by the corps in the battle. As for the specific reward, Chu Guang left the choice to each corps commander to decide.

  Under the existing mechanism, there is no cost for players to enter and leave the Corps.

   Corps with clear rewards and punishments will naturally become more and more courageous, and corps that cannot even achieve the most basic rewards and punishments will naturally gradually become marginalized.

  Let the corps commander handle the internal affairs of the corps by himself, which is not only the power that Chu Guang has given to each corps commander, but also a test of their organizational ability.

In the future, the size of the corps will become larger and larger. At present, each corps is still a company-level unit. With the increase of the number of players and the growth of the level, the outstanding corps will soon develop into a battalion level, a regiment level, or even a team containing multiple divisions. Group Army.

  Chuguang will update the version as needed.

   As for whether it can adapt to the version, that is the player's own business.

   Of course, in addition to the merits determined by each corps, this battle, as usual, will be awarded medals to the players by the official Sanctuary.

  Although in the current version, the main part of the war is each corps, but the power of the individual cannot be ignored either.

   As the first team battle above the group level since the launch of "Wasteland Online", a total of 375 whiteboard medals and 12 special medals were born in this battle.

  These special honors come with high perks and are awarded by the Refuge to individuals who have excelled in campaigns.

   For example, it is difficult for a strong man.

   As an underground worker active behind enemy lines, the intelligence provided by the strongman and the chaos created behind the battlefield played a key role in the victory of the war.

   And he also won the server's only golden "Eagle Eye Medal".

   It is difficult for strong people: "Hahaha, who dares to say that Laozi's sequence is tasteless! How about a strong group! (proud

  Ye Shi: "It's useful, and most people can't choose this sequence. (Funny

   Quit smoking: "What about your little brother?"

   What is difficult for strong men: "It's not in the way! I'll be alive tomorrow anyway, and I'll cheat a wave of corpses after I go back! (smiling

  …

   Refuge Medical Laboratory.

   Chu Guang, who started from the scanner bed, saw the updated property panel through the tablet.

   Last night, he was sweating again, and after getting up, he came to Heya without saying a word.

as predicted.

   Thanks to the players' excellent performance in the campaign, he has leveled up again.

  【

  】

   "...The sequence development progress has actually increased by 2% this time."

   Sitting on the chair opposite Chu Guang, Heya lightly tossed her silver-white hair and looked him up and down curiously.

   "I'm not surprised now. The only thing that confuses me is what is the principle of your sequence progress growth."

   "Isn't this the subject I taught you?" Being stared at by those straight eyes, Chu Guang picked up the shirt on the head of the bed and put it on himself.

  Hya nodded and continued.

   "Well, I have a few guesses so far, but not enough evidence yet."

   "You just tell me the most likely possibility."

   "Mother's Nest."

   The hand pulling the zipper stopped, and Chu Guang cast a suspicious look at her.

"What's the meaning?"

   "The inspiration I got when I was studying the mother nest, don't you think that your evolutionary model is a little bit similar to the mother nest?"

  Hya continued with interest.

"The mother nest releases a specific evolutionary body to integrate the surrounding fruit bodies, the fruit body evolves in the process of devouring, and as the command tower of the fruit body, the mother nest grows from the evolution process of the fruit body... Although this analogy is a bit far-fetched ."

  Chu Guang: "...I think it's more than a little far-fetched."

   "Well, after all, my knowledge of the morphogenetic field technology is completely blank," Heya shrugged helplessly, "It would be great if you could get more detailed information."

  Chu Guang: "I also hope that I will tell you as soon as there is news."

   As the "singularity-level" technology kept in Vault 404, the information he has about the morphogenetic field so far is only an audio that contains only a few words.

There are many possibilities    can guess, but until there is enough rigorous evidence, they can only be guesses.

   is like Schrodinger's cat.

   Only after the box is opened can you know what is inside the box.

   As for now.

   Lack of sufficient clues, and curiosity is useless.

   After leaving the medical laboratory, Chu Guang returned to the browsing room, took a bottle of milk for himself from the refrigerator, sat on the sofa and logged on to the official website of "Wasteland Online".

   as he expected.

   For the first battle of "Wasteland OL" above the group level, the players were as excited as 200-pound children, and the forum was as lively as the Chinese New Year.

  Especially Xiaoqi uploaded the battle video after editing, from the air to the ground, to the narrow building, the rendering to the extreme details is like a real battlefield!

  The players have already enjoyed the game, and the cloud players have also enjoyed it once.

  The people who were still hesitating to eat melons couldn't hold back their loneliness, so they took out ten precious minutes of their lives to fill out a form.

  Although only more than 30 numbers are released every day, what if you win?

   Driven by emotions, the number of pre-registered players has increased a lot.

   However, compared to the huge base of pre-registered players, the five-digit growth is not so obvious.

   "This is no more burning than 2042!"

   "I didn't say anything, even if I was cutting leeks, I recognized it. When will the krypton gold entrance be opened? I'll charge it 50 cents first!"

   "Thousands of people on the same screen PVE, but unfortunately there is no PVP mode, or it may not be more exciting."

   "Don't think about PVP, there is only one faction that can be added to the faction, but the AI ​​of this game is a bit bad, and playing PVE is no different."

   "+1, it's a waste to use such an awesome technology to make games. (Funny

   After passing the comments that were not nutritious, Chu Guang scrolled down and found that many players were studying the battle scoring mechanism and the calculation formula of the battle income.

  Although he has never disclosed these, players can still draw some rules from the public information.

   For example, Brother Fang.

The   Battle Report was launched less than two hours ago, and the strategy for the updated Corps system and campaign revenue soon appeared on the forum.

   "...long story short, two important points. One is about the corps, and the other is about the players in the corps system."

   "Many people in this battle should have noticed that the addition of points in the Corps system not only determines the growth route of the Corps, but also determines the tasks that the Corps may receive in specific battles."

"For example, a regiment with higher armor is more likely to trigger attack missions. A regiment with higher mobility is more likely to trigger interspersed tasks. Players who take the support route have almost no chance to go to the front line, either by flying a plane or shooting in the back. ."

"The war score is more determined by the completion of each stage. Different types of tasks have different KPI assessment standards. For example, for tough tasks, the weighted item is breakthrough speed. For example, street fighting tasks, the weighted item is battle damage. Support tasks require firepower accuracy, etc. Wait……"

"After the Beta version, the division of each corps will be more clear, and the calculation of scores will be closer to reality. As for capturing important targets, intercepting important information, annihilating enemy troops outside the intelligence in encounters, etc., these are not involved in the stage. The assessment, but as an additional point, is directly calculated on the final total score.”

   "In one sentence, as long as you use the standard amount of ammunition within the specified time and complete the respective combat missions, you can get a higher war score."

   "At the same time, the basic income that players get in the battle is mainly determined by this score."

"If you want to get higher profits, you must get higher scores for the team. For individuals who have performed outstandingly in battle, the corps commander can also give them 50%, 100%, 150% of the Additional rewards."

   "Although the corps commander can decide who to award the meritorious service according to his own subjective judgment, the number of meritorious merits that can be awarded is linked to the battlefield score."

   "In other words, if the rewards and punishments cannot be clearly defined, the cohesion of the corps will decline, and it will be difficult to obtain a higher war score in the battle, thus entering a vicious circle of declining revenue and declining numbers."

"It is strongly recommended that each corps establish a complete reward and punishment mechanism as soon as possible. With the growth of the corps level, the number of players that can be accommodated will also increase. In the later stage, it is not ruled out that the player will command an army to fight, the sooner the system is built. Completed, the less resistance to reform."

   "In addition, it is also recommended that newcomers, when choosing a corps, not only consider the level ranking, but also consider whether the rules of the corps are perfect, as well as the evaluation of other members of the corps on their corps!"

good.

   Brother Fang still understands me as always.

  Chu Guang nodded with satisfaction.

  When he designed the corps system, his biggest original intention was to hope that players would gather players with similar styles according to their own game styles, and then establish an organizational system suitable for them based on this, so as to maximize the combat effectiveness of a group of special people.

   As for the name of this system, those are all trivial matters.

   It is impossible for him to design a separate growth route for each player, but players can DIY their favorite gameplay within the scope of the rules.

   If you really can't find fun, you can also give the helmet to other players who can find fun, and lie on the bed and have a good night's sleep.

   In addition to the discussion about the Corps system itself, many players also focus on the economic aspect other than war.

   Like the mole rat in the canyon.

   This guy directly asserted in the post that the new alliance will usher in a wave of infrastructure frenzy in the future.

   And the reason he gave was simple.

"Qingshi County is 80 kilometers away from Dawn City, right? How much cement, steel, sand and asphalt will it take to repair the railway and highway? Don't even think about it, the demand for these commodities will definitely grow! Opening a sand mining field and a biomass oil refinery in Yuanxi Town will definitely make money!"

  Tail: "Oh! It's amazing! Si, take notes! (ω

  Siss: "I'm remembering, I'm remembering."

  The fleeing mole rat in the canyon: "Gan! You slackers, if you make money, why don't you give me a little bit! (Crazy

  Chu Guang read the post from the beginning to the end, and while feeling emotional, he silently added a fine line.

  With these smart little players, why can't the people's union be restored?

   Of course, what Brother Mole mentioned in the post, he has long thought of it.

   After the Xizhou is taken down, not only the roads and railways will be repaired to Xizhou, but Chu Guang intends to move the heavy industry there too.

  The location of Dawn City is too close to the strong neighbor of Boulder City, and the risk of developing heavy industry under the nose of the other party is too great.

  The new alliance needs enough strategic depth to deal with possible dangers.

   After the war is over, Chu Guang intends to build a new settlement in Xizhou City to accommodate the local survivors and gradually shift the heavy industry of Dawn City to the north.

  Xizhou City is surrounded by mountains and is close to lakes and rivers. There are many proven mineral resources, and the most important thing is that there is no mutant slime mold. The difficulty of developing heavy industry will be much easier than Qingquan City.

   As for Dawn City, as a base for light industry, agriculture, and commerce, it produces the daily necessities and various consumer goods needed by the residents of the new alliance.

   But in order to turn these plans from blueprints into reality, we must first solve the Ya clan stationed in Xizhou City...

  Chu Guang closed the official website and was about to leave the browsing room and head to the surface.

   But at this moment, Xiao Qi's voice suddenly came from the side.

   "Master! The player you sent to station in Songlin Valley was bombarded!"

   The moment he heard this sentence, Chu Guang's expression froze slightly.

coming!

   "Notify all players of the Burning Corps to go online immediately!"

  Xiaoqi's voice is full of energy as always.

   "Yes! Master!"

   (end of this chapter)
