Chapter 557: City Construction and the City Lord System
The benefits of the city and city lord system are clear.
If it can be implemented smoothly, Eve will not only relieve the increasingly bloated pressure of the Chosen City, but also radiate the power of the players, forming a firmer control over their faith area.
At the same time, combining the city with the players, making the players the "masters" of the city, can also justifiably make the players the coolies that keep the city running, and further enhance their cohesion.
In fact, even if Eve doesn't push for this, as the number of players gradually increases, I'm afraid there will be people who will have such an idea.
After all...... Who wouldn't want to have a city of their own?
And now, Eve is only planning to make it official and completely under control.
In a past life, He was a man who did what he said.
After deciding to build a new city, Eve quickly put her mind into the game system and began to plan.
The city and city lord system is a system that Eve has already envisioned when players build the Chosen City, and the rough skeleton has already been built in his heart.
Now it's all about refining it and making it available to players.
"The new city is not only to evacuate the population, but also to serve as a stronghold and fortress, and at the same time to ensure that the construction can only operate normally, so ...... The urban construction system should still be centered on the more cohesive guilds. ”
"The current major player guilds already have a mature management system, which is very suitable for direct docking with the urban construction system."
"In addition, maintaining the operation of a city must also require a huge investment of manpower, even a small city should be small, and there should be temples, city walls, magic defense systems, teleportation arrays, living areas, mission areas, etc...... Therefore, in order to prevent the construction of new cities from becoming unfinished projects, it is necessary to improve the corresponding opening conditions. ”
"The number of players should be strictly controlled, taking into account the average number of players online and the daily active time, combined with the total number of players in the entire Saiggs world, and in order to prevent the construction of the new city from becoming a de facto 'village' and 'ghost town'...... It is possible to raise the benchmark for the number of applicants for the establishment of a castle by ......"
"If you take all aspects of the data, 30,000 people is a good choice, this number of people, even if the proportion of life players is low, is enough to maintain the construction and operation of the city, and the city it builds can also have a good population carrying capacity, not only as a guild territory, but also has the potential to become a place of residence for casual players and even elves."
"Well, based on 30,000 people, only groups with a scale of 30,000 people can exchange for the urban construction system after spending a huge amount of contributions, and have the right to build a new city!"
"However, considering that there are very few large guilds that have reached the scale of 30,000 people, we can change the model - the Guild Alliance."
"Guild alliances are allowed to be formed between player guilds, and the urban construction function is connected to guild alliances."
"The Guild Alliance requires a minimum of one guild, in that case...... If the Grand Guild wants to own the city, it can also be a separate alliance and build its own city. ”
"Small and medium-sized guilds with insufficient players can also cooperate with each other to raise the total number of players to the application standard and apply for ...... together."
"Of course, the city of the joint application is shared by all the guilds that apply."
"A guild can only own one city at a time, at least for now, and that includes small and medium-sized guilds that share a city."
"The new city is named by the player, and it will be automatically displayed on the official map after it is established, and the specific information of the relevant city can also be found in the game system."
"There should be requirements for the location of the city, which I can hint and guide through the system, and mark the sites suitable for building the city in green, only allow the construction of the city in the place that is suitable for the construction of the city, and the two cities should not be too close to each other."
"Also, in addition to the number of people and the contribution requirements, we must also add the prestige evaluation requirements......"
"In addition, improve the city lord system, without specifically specifying, the city lord is the leader of the guild alliance, and the leader of the guild alliance is elected by the players themselves, of course, players can also designate the city lord by the alliance leader according to actual needs."
"After the city is built, it is necessary to build a city manager system and an assessment system with the city owner as the core......"
Soon, with Eve's conception and design, a complete urban construction function gradually took shape.
After designing the relevant functions, Eve decisively integrated them into the game network.
The rest, only activated.
"Let's make a new update announcement, but ...... Now that I'm a medium godpower, and my ability to control the faith network and game system has been greatly improved, I don't need to take players offline in future updates. ”
"When was the official update...... It's set for a day on the Blue Star, and it's not particularly urgent, just to stir up the heat, and also give each guild a time to prepare. ”
Thinking of this, Eve connected to the official website and sent out the new update announcement, and at the same time sent a brief message in the game in the form of floating text......
……
The Chosen City, the home of the Nature's Heart Guild.
Li Mu was lying on the wooden chair leisurely, humming a little song, with a comfortable face.
It has been almost half a month since the end of the War of the Dead Desert.
Although he didn't kill the enemy on the front line, just relying on the experience points brought by commanding the legion, his level soared, and he was officially promoted to level 50 a week ago, reaching the limit of the current players in "Elven Realm".
Of course, in the battle of the Death Desert, he is not the only player who has become a full level under the silver rank.
In the earliest batch of silver players, almost 100 of them have reached the full level.
With the release of silver quotas, the number of silver players on the whole server has long been different from what it used to be, and the number of silver players on the list has approached 1,000.
Faintly, the strength of the players has swelled to a fairly strong level.
However, it's not just the players who are boosting.
Li Mu noticed that after the World Tree was further restored, the magic power of the entire world was also correspondingly improved again.
In this process, all kinds of demonic beasts in the entire Elven Forest have advanced one after another, and even the monsters in the underground world seem to be more powerful.
And the elves of Fei Lengcui have also successively appeared professionals with silver strength, and those who are themselves silver professionals, such as Alice and Al, have also increased in strength and reached the silver level.
"It's a little bit like watching the revival of Reiki flow at the beginning."
Thinking of this, Li Mu complained to himself.
After speaking, he changed his posture and continued to crook on the recliner, shaking his head and listening to the music, while looking at the air in a "daze".
That's certainly not a real daze.
It's just that he's doing his coursework.
That's how good it is in college, where a lot of coursework is submitted online in electronic form.
"Elven Country", which has accelerated thinking, is simply the best place to write homework.
After piecing together the course report through the papers consulted by CNKI, Li Mu closed the webpage and stretched out beautifully.
It's evening at the world of Segs.
It's time for dinner.
The Chosen City is no longer what it used to be, and the variety of cuisines is already a treat in itself.
And the body in the game also needs to eat.
Touching his hungry stomach, Li Mu planned to call a few friends to go to the tavern to rub it together, and drink two glasses of wine by the way.
But at this time, he suddenly saw a new system message floating from above his field of vision:
"Update reminder: "Elf Country" will be updated non-stop at 10:00 (Blue Star time) the next day, and new system functions will be opened, I hope you will know about it."
New system features?
Li Mu raised his eyebrows.
I don't know if it's the reason why it's getting better and better after the open beta.,Recently, the update frequency of "Elf Country" has been getting slower and slower.
The most recent one was just the opening of new player slots.
Now seeing that there are new functions open, it makes Li Mu a little curious.
However, after seeing that it was a non-stop update, the curiosity in his heart dissipated a lot.
As we all know, non-stop updates, updated features are definitely gadgets, the kind that doesn't matter.
In other words, it's pretty much the same as patches.
And "Elven Country" used to do the same.
But even with such thoughts, Li Mu still habitually connected to the Internet and logged on the official website.
Every time it is updated, the official website can find specific information.
As soon as he entered the official website, Li Mu saw the eye-catching title of the changelog......
"What? Urban construction system? ”
For a while, Li Mu was a little confused.
"Is this to refine the functions of the Chosen City?"
He muttered curiously.
As an MMORPG, "Elven Country" has been refined and free enough in too many places.
In this regard, Li Mu is already very satisfied.
At this time, he really didn't think too much about it.
Until he clicked into the changelog......
"Shhh...... Building a new city? Players can finally build their own cities? ”
Seeing the details of the log, Li Mu was slightly stunned, and then looked surprised.
Accidentally.
What a surprise!
I thought it might just be an update patch, but I didn't expect it to be a bomb!
Big news, big news!
Li Mu instantly became energetic:
"This ...... Could it be that players can build their own territory? MMORPG becomes a territory to operate?! ”
Agitated, he began to scrutinize the journal......
"Open the guild alliance system, the guild alliance can choose a suitable location on the map to establish a new city, and the new city will become a secondary main city......"
"Shhh...... It's really a city! And it's the player's own city! ”
Li Mu's eyes lit up.
Owning a territory, owning a city of your own, this ...... Probably a lot of people yearn for it, right?
Although when the Chosen City was just built, some players speculated that it was likely that relevant functions would be opened in the future, but when this incident really happened, Li Mu still felt extremely excited.
The Chosen City is good, but it's still public in the end.
How can there be a fragrance of your own!
And...... As the number of guilds increases, they don't have enough places to stay now.
However, what attracted Li Mu the most was not only the conditions and content of urban construction, but also the explanation of the urban management system.
That's the Castle Lord system......
"Establish a city management system with the city lord as the core, that is, officials in a certain sense, including the city lord, deputy city lord, temple priest, city guard captain, etc......"
"The city lord and deputy city lord have a certain number of private management quotas, and they are allowed to customize the city's officials, such as setting up the finance minister, the affairs officer, etc."
"Different positions have corresponding permissions and functions, and they can even assign certain tasks to other players like NPCs!"
"And in addition to the player, NPCs can also be invited to become city managers......"
"That's good! A civil servant in another world? ”
"Huh? There's even a salary! ”
"All city positions will be regularly assessed by the system according to the degree of development and operation of the city, and qualified players will receive additional contribution points as rewards every week, the better the city development, the more rewards, the higher the title, the more rewards, and the better the assessment results, the more rewards......"
"Wait, that's a good reward."
"Of course, if you fail the assessment, there will be no reward......"
"The results are related to the level of activity of managers and the state of the city."
"Well, that's understandable."
"Huh? Guild Alliances and City Managers also have exclusive titles, which can be hung below IDs, among which the color of the Guild Alliance Alliance Leader and City Lord is golden, which is a golden legend-level title, the Deputy City Lord, the Temple Priest, and the City Guard Captain are purple epic titles, and the custom officials are blue rare ......"
"The title of the Golden Legend! This one...... So far, there aren't many servers in the whole server, right? The titles of Guild Leader and Legion Leader are only purple epics......"
The more Li Mu watched, the more excited he became, and the more he watched, the more delighted he became.
As the guild leader of the first major guild in "Elf Country", the number of players under his command has already approached 50,000, and all kinds of life players are blooming, and the industry has opened to the underground world and the human world.
In this case, Li Mu felt that his guild still had the ability to build a main city.
He could almost see the golden title of City Lord above his head!
Even if he wasn't the city lord, the alliance leader wouldn't be able to escape.
If there's anything that makes him feel a little stressed......
Probably...... It's the condition for applying for the construction of a city.
"Thirty thousand people? It's okay, the Heart of Nature is almost 50,000 people, and it is more than enough to build a city! The prestige evaluation of the guild is also enough. ”
"Shhh...... It takes 10 million contributions to build a guild alliance, and 50 million contributions to qualify for building a city......"
"Although the contribution is becoming less and less valuable now, it still hurts, and the guild really doesn't seem to have so many contributions...... Looks like it's crowdfunded. ”
"And...... After getting the qualification, the resources consumed by building the city are also a lot ......"
"It's a long way to go! But...... Thief expectation! ”
