My Player 2

Chapter 52 Gameplay Optimization
"No." Li Li said to himself.

This world is so big that they have only explored a small area in the southernmost part of the continent so far.

Perhaps those "Boss-level" monsters need to be dealt with by "rare creature-level" players.

However, if we cannot summon tens or even millions of players, the corruption that is spread throughout every corner of the world will never be completely eradicated.

Fortunately, even for ordinary players, if they want to play his "second round game", they have to invest a lot of money.

After all, the prerequisite for booking the game is to reach the maximum level in the "first week".

For someone who has never played the game, if you want to reach the maximum level in the first week, even if you don't upgrade any skills, you will need more than 300 billion experience points.

If you hire a coach, you will probably have to work hard for more than 12 hours a day for three months at a high intensity.

This has already screened out the "passersby".

Moreover, for most players, as long as there are certain constraints, they actually tend to be stable.

Although there will be a small number of "troublemakers", with such a terrifying cost of playing, the number of these "troublemakers" should not be too large. We just need to strike hard at them and then make it public to the players.

"So the general direction of [Sin Value] is correct, but the problem is that it lacks a standard."

Li Li slid to the table in his office chair and searched the laws of the Thirteen Cities Alliance on the computer.

The punishment is unknown, and the power is unpredictable. This is Li Li's current way of restraining players.

However, as the number of players increases, it will be impossible for him to judge the behavior of each person, and he must formulate an in-game [law].

"Let's refer to the laws of the Alliance..."

"Hiss, the information density of this code is too great. It's really hard to read..."

Looking at the Alliance Code, which is divided into more than a dozen volumes, each with more than 100,000 words, Li Li urgently wants to find an advisor. He has played games and knows how to guide players to help him do work, but he has never studied law.

"But I can't always be a makeshift team..." Li Li sighed.

Since it concerns players, he naturally cannot trust anyone and can only bite the bullet and read the book on his own.

After watching for a while, Li Li turned off the monitor, took out the mirror, and slowly started editing on his forum.

He planned to first compile this law to constrain the players, and once it had a rough outline, he would publish it on the official announcement of the forum, and then continuously update it based on actual conditions.

After reading the code for a while, Li Li had some new ideas in his mind.

He wants to divide the ban into three levels: permanent ban, one month, and one week.

As for resurrection, the current one-day resurrection CD is a bit too inhumane.

It is impossible to fully allow resurrection, as that would be a loss, but players can be divided into different levels based on their performance.

Those with high gear can be resurrected instantly, while those with low gear will have their resurrection CD increased.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk."

There was a knock on the office door again. Li Li's brows jumped and he saw Al walking in.

"Are you back?" Li Li asked a nonsense question.

"Yeah." Al nodded.

There was a fallen leaf stuck on her hair, her clothes were dusty, and there were several holes in her stockings. It was obvious that she had just returned from outside the city after a long journey.

Li Li stood up and stretched, then went forward to pick up Al, but as soon as he approached, Al hugged him with his tail.

"You..." Li Li was speechless.

"Experience points, I'll give them to you, but you have to touch them first." Al said without blushing or beating his heart.

"Okay, but can you be gentler? My feet are off the ground." Li Li said helplessly. He put his hand on El's ear, and while stroking the panda's ear, he checked El's injury and healed the small wound on her soul.

Then, he collected about 4600 points of faith from Al.

These faith values ​​come from the players' fragmented upgrades along the way, as well as the contributions of the three players who shared the Suzaku experience after arriving at the Crystal Sealed Village.

Including the cost of extracting embers for "A Broken Leg", Li Li actually didn't make much.

Those three players were all stuck at level 60. They used nearly half of their experience to upgrade their skills, and did not rush to advance to the gold tier.

With this income, Li Li estimated that in about ten days, he would be able to accumulate 1 faith points and implement the plan of summoning a thousand players.

He didn't dare to summon players before because he was worried that the players were too weak.

If players die too many times, his faith will be insufficient.

But now, Li Li knows that these players are veterans who have played the game for the second round, and local forces are also rushing to invest in them.

And in the eyes of the Thirteen Cities Alliance, every player is a treasure, and there is no telling how many eyes are staring at them.

Otherwise, the Chamber of Commerce would have used coercive methods to force sales on these ignorant players.

For Li Li, as long as he does a good job of screening the players, then every additional player he summons will be an additional fat sheep that produces wool.

However, Li Li, who was trapped in the barrier and unable to get out, was still a little uneasy after rashly summoning 1000 players...

He knew that as a game, "Glory Expedition OL" was actually not up to standard.

Although it has received rave reviews for its combat, the visual effects are thrilling, and the taste, smell, and various life gameplay are so realistic that they are "just like reality."

But we still cannot ignore the fact that this game has great strengths but fatal weaknesses.

The most fatal problem at present is the problem of rushing to get there.

Not to mention the subway ride in the city that takes half an hour at a time, there are also various difficulties that lack "gameplay" between the monster spawning locations outside the city.

Even the nearest monster spawning point is more than ten minutes away.

And the most disgusting thing is that low-level players have very low [Endurance], and when the yellow bar is very short, they basically have to log off and rest without doing anything.

However, as players' levels increase, their character performance will experience a qualitative leap.

For ordinary people, a few dozen kilometers of off-road running is simply a life-threatening task, but after reaching the bronze level, this distance is no longer a problem, and a silver-level warrior can finish the run in just a few minutes.

As long as you upgrade, the shortcomings of this game will be solved, and may even become advantages.

The problem now is that the "early stage" of this game is too unfriendly.

If it weren't for the combination of various factors, Li Li felt that most people would quit in the early stages.

It would be great if we could send the 1000 summoned players to the Crystal Sealed Village at once, let them reach level 30 in the Novice Village, and then come back to work.

The current method of allowing the extraordinary people in the Thirteen Cities Alliance to upgrade the players is not a long-term solution.

With this in mind, Li Li released his hand from the furry ear and asked Al about the business:
"El, have you figured it out? How long can the demigod Saint Aperia last after she leaves the village?"

Al: “Ten minutes.”

Li Li: "Then how long can she last in the village?"

Al: “Two months.”

Li Li: "...So, I have another thing to worry about."
