Chapter 115: Closed Beta Report

The first page is basically about the test project and the like, such as a brief introduction to the project, a description of the test environment, testers, and so on. There's nothing to worry about.

There were 2,000 people tested, and a long list was attached, but Xia Di was not impressed by their names.

These are probably people invited by the developer.

Thinking like this, Xia Di turned the second page.

BUG NUMBER 001

Location: Newbie City

Type Object: Player

Description: After the created character arrives in the Newbie City, the appearance of the character does not match the modeling setting.

Test data analysis: According to the set value, the height is 180cm, the weight is 60kg, the length of the arms is 84cm, and the beautification effect is ticked, but the actual appearance is 2~3 values worse. It is recommended to add a modeling review mechanism.

Re: Be informed. The bug was fixed two days later, and the recheck settings were completed.

BUG NUMBER 002

Place of occurrence: Southampton, British Province

Type Object: Player

Content Description: NPCs do not recognize the player's gender.

Test data analysis: in cases where non-appearance is misleading. This has happened more than once, with 1525 males and 475 females, 710 males and 1290 females modelled to the same situation.

Re: It is not possible to find out the cause of the bug and fix it at this time. After detection, it may be related to the fix patch of BUG NUMBER 001. It is recommended to delete.

BUG NUMBER 003

……

"Oh, has this ever happened before? Looks like this is a pretty early version...... I remember that during the open beta, the appearance and gender of the characters were all based on reality, which caused some players to oppose it at the time, but the developers did not compromise in the end. Could it be that this has not been fixed yet? Speaking of which, this kind of setting has attracted a bunch of social gamers after the server is launched......" Xia Di sighed as he turned the page.

"The first three pages seem to be trivial...... Turn a few more pages. Hey, what is this? ”

Xia Di suddenly found that there was a page that was different, the title was written in red, and there was a seal with a major accident in the upper right corner.

BUG NO. 031 (in red)

Location: All parts of the United Kingdom

Genre Object: Drama character, court archmage Merlin

Description: After the end of the second chapter of the game script, the third chapter of the new king's election begins, represented by Merlin, the British Imperial Kingdom declares war on the new Roman Empire. The war lasted for three years, causing the unnatural deaths of 1,230,000 NPCs. This is an example that does not exist in the script. This move made it impossible to achieve the goal of [New King Election], resulting in the collapse of the plot and the player's inability to enter the fourth chapter smoothly.

Test Data Analysis: In 1,000 tests, Mage Merlin launched a total of 823 full-scale wars against the New Roman Empire and 170 local wars to blockade the British coast before the [New King's Election] goal was achieved. The status quo has only been maintained 7 times.

According to the original plot, the war against Rome should be determined by the player's influence on the new king after the king's election, as well as the domestic situation (refer to the relevant parameters). This incident is a very significant bug. A two-page exclusive report on this incident has been submitted to the upper echelons, and it is hoped that it will be treated with caution.

Re: The report has been received by the upper level. After investigation, Merlin's character data is normal, and the exact reason for his actions has not yet been ascertained. If it is not successfully identified and dealt with in a timely manner within one month, it is decided to adopt the exclusive report proposal.

"Hmmm......"

The following part of the article is the BUG trend chart and module BUG distribution, which Xia Di can't understand. But he understands that this is indeed a very serious incident, and it can't advance the plot, which is a bug that cannot be ignored in any game.

Merely.

“…… The election of a new king? Has there ever been such a plot......" Xia Di hugged his arms and thought for a minute, but he didn't think of similar memories, before he crossed over, the game had already reached the sixth chapter, as a veteran player who has been liver since the start of the server, it stands to reason that there should be some impressions, if not......

"Does that only mean that this plot was later changed?"

Xia Di suddenly felt a sense of disobedience, but he couldn't figure out where the source of this feeling was.

He flipped another page and found the exclusive report mentioned at the end of the article.

Report:

After discussion between the test team and the technical department, in order to improve the realism of the game and realize that NPCs have their own thinking and unique personalities, there are no restrictions on NPCs (single artificial intelligence), which is the reason for the contradiction between the script and NPC actions. All the events in the game only indicate the fuse, but do not take into account the impact of the player's actions on the NPC, that is, the actual development and the set plot direction do not conform to the thinking logic of the NPC. As a result, the fuse loses its efficacy.

Conclusion: It is recommended to consider restricting NPC intelligence to guide the plot direction, or modify the plot and background accordingly.

After reading the report, Xia Di frowned, "Limit artificial intelligence? That's unheard of. ”

In the 22nd century, where Xia Di lives, most game manufacturers take great pains to make NPCs look like real people. But according to the above, the plot should have changed later......

"Well, this is?"

Xia Di suddenly found a small line of words in the lower right corner of the report - [→31P]

These words are different from those printed on the document, they are written with a pen, Xia Di directly turned to page 31, and after reading it, he found that his guess just now was not wrong.

"After the plot modification and the artificial intelligence restriction function setting is turned on, the BUG has been eliminated, and there is no abnormality, thanks to the understanding of the upper level."

Xia Di took a deep breath, he vaguely understood where the sense of disobedience he felt just now came from, but he was not sure yet, so he turned the page back and read the report from beginning to end, until he saw a place, and finally determined it.

BUG NUMBER 149

Type Object: Player

Description: Unclear power system? The armed warriors at the peak of the third order were killed in seconds by the archers at the beginning of the third order.

Test data analysis: When the strength points of the third-order early archer are higher than the durability of the third-order peak warrior, it can cause twice the damage of the warrior's life, forming an instant kill. From the point of view of the power system, this is obviously unreasonable, although the game is not against killing enemies by leapfrogging, and there are appropriate differences in the growth of attributes because of their respective training degrees, but the too vague power system makes people confused, and the user experience is undoubtedly very bad. It is recommended to abandon the class system and adopt a hierarchical system.

"Well, I almost get it." Xia Di closed the report and rubbed his hands that were a little chilling.

Let's not mention that this record is a completely colloquial complaint, and how deep the resentment of the warrior who was killed by the archers empty-handed, let's talk about the power system mentioned here...... It is undoubtedly different from the "Legend of Minion" played by Xia Di.

Yes, the game world depicted in the closed beta is quite different from the "Legend of Mignion" as I know it, although many of the settings are not perfect, but the degree of freedom has increased a lot.

Compared to the legend of Minion that I knew, the content of the game described in this report is more similar to the Atlas I am currently in.

In other words, I didn't travel to the other world, but to ...... No, it was moved to an older version of the game?
