While Chu Guang was busy counting his loot, the official website forum of "Wasteland Online" was lively.

There was a whole winter of silence.

Chaos from the north has been invading the southern borders of the province of the river valley.

And just today, a hearty epic victory dispelled all the dark clouds in an instant!

[Full Server Announcement: Operation "Spring Thunder" Victorious]

[The battle report has been announced and sent to the player's personal mailbox and the in-game VM simultaneously.] 】

Tail: "Oh!! ”

Quit smoking: "Mosquitoes are awesome! Of course, the planning is also awesome! ”

Fang Chang: "It's too strong, no, it should be said that it's too punishment!" ”

Night Ten: "Mosquito said with tears in his eyes, there are eight versions, from bloody hands to chewing bones, and he is finally an MVP." (Funny)"

WC really has mosquitoes: "Goblin Technology is now launching a new product!" 88mm mortar! There is also a 'Hell Breath' diesel-powered motorcycle! 15 kg of wood is consumed per 100 kilometers, which is very easy to use! ”

Irena: "There's an advertisement here, please block it for the moderator." (Funny)"

Ya'er I want to go to the toilet: "Damn, am I not awesome?" I exploded 7 vehicles! I was scared to death! ”

Edge paddling: "Our team blew up a tank. (squint)"

Canyon fugitive mole: "Our team killed the commander!" ”

Midnight Kill: "I've got 20 heads." ”

Commander of the Spring: "Hairy?" The head score is not high! Do you two have as many points as our team combined? ”

Fujito: "Everyone is very good, don't quarrel." QAQ”

Night Ten: "You don't understand, this is their way of bragging. (Funny)"

Raven: "When I have enough power armor, I'll accompany you to the front!" ”

I'm the blackest: "You're worse than a spring." (surprised)"

Commander of the spring: "Where is Lao Tzu!" (Angry)"

Not only the players are happy, but the tens of thousands of cloud players who are lining up are also happy.

A two-minute video and 20 original drawings and game CGs.

And it's also an actual demonstration shooting!

Isn't this much more fragrant than the pie drawn by EA?!

Riding a donkey to catch the market: "Alas, if the actual game screen can have half of the promotional PV, I will die without regrets." ”

Irena: "Closed beta players are very responsible to tell you that the promotional PV is only half of the actual game screen. (Funny)"

It's just that Mo Bugana can't: "Please, don't test it, it's already very complete, I'm going to play half-finished products, and kneel and beg for a chance to be a tool man." ”

Silver Hand: "Is the production team short of money?" Thinking about crowdfunding? ”

Silver Sword: "Need a VC?" ”

Professor Yang of the Thunderbolt Law: "Such an awesome technical suggestion is directly listed. ”

A bag of rice carries several floors: "Anyway, the actual game screen is so exciting, will it be okay?" ”

Siberian Potato: "That is, what if you have a heart attack?" ”

Tempest: "I heard that this helmet uses dream imaging technology, which is completely detached from traditional visual imaging technology. To put it simply, the images you see in the game are probably the same as the ones you dream about when you dream, and there will be no obvious sensory stimulation in places that are beyond your capacity. This stimulation includes pain perception as well as various physiological aspects...... Although I searched for a long time and didn't find the literature, they just did it. ”

Night Ten: "Vault tech is terrifying. (Funny)"

Professor Yang of the Thunder and Lightning Method: "If you don't understand, just ask, can you do bad things in the game?" ”

Lao Bai: "At present, the player's optional camp is only open to the orderly camp, which can be regarded as an orthodox MMORPG, but the playability and freedom are still much stronger than the mass production of skinning fast food on the assembly line, and you can feel that the NPCs in it are all alive, and they have their own unique morals and likes and dislikes." You can do whatever you want, as long as it doesn't interfere with other people's gaming experience. ”

Ye Ao said to me: "Laugh, what does that mean?" Ye likes to be the PK of the imperial city, and he opens and hangs the fried clothes. Trash games, dogs don't make reservations! ”

Hurricane: "A hot knowledge, there is no game in this world that can be liked by seven billion people, even if it is a landlord." (Squint)"

Night Ten: "Touch the dog's head of the elder brother, come back quickly, the group is not half of the joy without you." (Funny)"

This time, Brother Ye Ao didn't do a good job, and everyone said that his combat effectiveness was too weak, and he was soon drowned in the reply.

But it's also normal.

Even if it's a pet, it's impossible to be in a state every day.

Chu Guang, who finished counting the loot, glanced at the forum and found that 90% of the posts in the gossip section were discussing the two-minute PV.

From the launch of rockets to the charge at the whistle, the camera switches between the perspective of the drone and the player, and the stunning light and shadow effects are like a real battlefield.

For the more exciting pictures, the drone controlled by Xiaoqi gave a few close-ups.

For example, the Awakened Power player is like Rambo with a machine gun in his hand, shooting through the billowing smoke.

Another example is the charging tracked vehicle, where cannon fire harvests the marauders' armored pickups.

By the way.

The video was cut out by Xiaoqi in the style of Chu Guang's last production of promotional PV.

As for the BGM, it was also copied from the radio.

Although "The Sound of Boulder" spends 20 hours a day talking nonsense, it occasionally intersperses some useful information and good music in the middle of the nonsense.

At present, the BGM has been added to the official soundtrack, which can be listened to online and downloaded and saved, and has been widely praised by many netizens, who have expressed their desire to know who the composer is.

However.

What does this have to do with planning?

Ah Guang is just a little planner for the game, you should go to the music director.

……

Following.

Before dawn, more than 200 prisoners of war lined up in a long line at the gate of the Long Farm.

They were dressed in dirty, old fur clothes, shackled to their ankles, and their faces looked either depressed or frightened.

Or numbness and despair.

Two tracked trucks with fixed machine guns welded to the roof of the vehicle drove next to the team.

In addition, 20 guards with Arbiter rifles and PU-9 submachine guns at their waists stood around the group.

At the front of the group, an old-fashioned guard with a beard glanced around at the prisoners of war and spoke in a loud voice.

"The crimes you have committed in the province of the Valley are enough for you to be hanged ten times."

"But the merciful ruler thinks that the slaughter of prisoners of war is unjust, and that your blood will stain the land, so he spares your dog's life."

"You will go to the labor camps, where you will be reformed by labor, and the wasteland north of Linghu will be reclaimed, and irrigation canals will be built, and anything else that will be useful to this society...... until you pay for the sins you have committed with your labor. ”

"Fifty years is a long sentence, but good behavior can be reduced."

"Now, let's go."

Fifty years.

The vast majority of people simply don't live that long.

In the wasteland, forty years old can be considered a long life.

Only those who live in shelters or settlements of wealthy survivors are likely to live longer.

But the phrase "good performance can be commuted" still brings a trace of comfort to many people who are already desperate, or the motivation to live.

Even if no one tells them what the criteria for commutation are, and how much they can be reduced.

The team began to set off on the road.

They needed to cut down enough wood before it got dark to build the prisoner of war camp.

Otherwise, we'll have to sleep in the snow tonight.

Vaedes and Kevin stood on the side of the road, staring blankly at the team as they set off on the road.

The two of them who were incorporated into the team had no hope for their future lives.

But unexpectedly, they were just incorporated into the team, and they were driven out by a guard with a gun.

Kevin asked nervously and quietly.

"What do they want to do?"

"I don't know......" Just as Vides was speaking, he suddenly saw a familiar face and walked towards them.

The moment he saw the man, Vides's expression was stunned for a moment, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Vanus?"

There was a bit of emotion on Vanus's face.

"I didn't expect to see you here."

The two graduated from the same military academy and had known each other since they were students.

After graduating, Vanus went straight to the front as a ten-captain as a junior officer because of his excellent grades and outstanding performance in the academy, while Vides joined the Youth Corps and began his military career as a recruit.

As a result of the Legion's eastward strategy, the two joined the Expeditionary Force and fought against the men of the Great Rift Valley under General Klaas. Later, Vaeders's unit suffered a crushing defeat and his whereabouts were unknown, and Vanus thought that this guy was dead, but he didn't expect that he was still alive.

What he didn't expect was that the reunion of the two was in such a dramatic form.

After listening to what had happened to Vanus in the past few months, Vides smiled bitterly.

"No wonder...... It turns out that you are here, and it seems that the idiot of Black Snake has lost unjustly. ”

Not only did these men strategically anticipate their plans, but they also tactically avoided their vanguard and set up ambushes in unexpected places to attack their rear, creating incredible results.

Even if he lost, Vides couldn't help but exclaim.

However, after seeing Vanus, he was relieved.

Everyone graduated from a classroom, or even taught by a teacher.

He knows all the tactics he knows, and he can basically think of everything he can think of, this battle is really difficult to fight.

Vanus: "I am not in command of this battle, and it is not I who will defeat you, and I have at most some suggestions on deployment." But there is one thing you are right, you are indeed not unjustly lost. Six hundred-man teams were thrown in front to explore the road, and the supply convoy followed the armored troops, and the battle line was stretched so long...... What the hell do you guys think? ”

Seeing that Vanus looked at him strangely, Vades said sadly.

"Do you think I want to do that?"

"I risked being thrown into the oil pan and reminded the idiot more than once that the winter march was a bad decision, but no one listened to me at all."

Kevin, who was standing on the side, also nodded and said with a constipated expression.

"It's not just that, we learned about the arrangements to march into Qingquan City in the early morning of the 1st, and before we asked what the plan was, the vanguard had already set off. During this period, we didn't have a single combat meeting, and the black snake seemed to pat his head and decided to all-in all the chips, even which way to go, after the supplies were packed. ”

The main army left at noon on the 1st, the war ended on the evening of the 2nd, and the prisoner of war camp began construction on the 3rd, and it should be possible to build a shed before tonight.

Kevin had never fought such a humiliating battle.

He would rather die on the northern front himself.

At least if you lose to a strong opponent, your own death can also be decent.

After listening to the deeds of the two, a trace of sympathy could not help but appear on Vanus's face.

He tried to bring in the position of the two of them, and found that this battle was indeed impossible to fight.

With such a stupid commander, even if he is replaced as a staff officer, the final result may be the same.

"I have a general idea of the situation...... But you two ran into the horde of marauders? ”

Vaedes and Kevin looked at each other and shook their heads.

"I don't know, we ran into those marauders as we retreated south, and our commander decided to join them, so we joined along."

Kevin continued.

"I heard...... They seem intent on establishing a kingdom of marauders in the province of the River Valley, and the rest is unclear. ”

A realm of marauders?

That's what it is.

A huge tribe?

Vanus couldn't imagine what a strange picture it was, and he couldn't imagine how they intended to make it happen, which sounded outrageous enough.

"Speaking of you?" Vides looked at Vanus and continued, "You are now their staff officer?" Still is? ”

Vanus was stunned and said.

"Me? I was also their captive, but they allowed me to train new recruits for them in lieu of paying the ransom. ”

Vides looked at him with an eager expression.

"Ransom? How much? ”

Vanus has a vague expression. Said vaguely.

"One million dinars, and this is last year's price, I don't know how much it is now, I advise you to give up."

The two of them gasped.

Million!

This is the sale of all the family property, and it is impossible to make up so much money!

“…… Is that job of training recruits still recruiting? ”

"Brother, help us."

Facing the two pairs of pleading glances, Vanus said in embarrassment.

"I'll ask you...... But I can't guarantee it, I can only say as much as possible. ”

Vides said excitedly.

"Thank you!"

Vanus said in a suggestive tone.

"Those blue coats didn't send you to the labor camp, there should be something I want to ask you, you cooperate well, tell everything you know, don't hide it, don't make it up, they won't embarrass you too much."

The two of them said immediately.

"Don't worry!"

"We're sure we know it all!"

Vanus nodded reassuringly.

"That's good."

Cooperate well, have a good attitude, and repent seriously, even if you still have to accept the transformation of labor in the end, the place you go will be better.

After all, playing in the mud in a brick factory and digging potatoes in the snow are very different from the same work.

The former does a good job and has the opportunity to eat meat.

The latter is a deadly ......

……

Early the next morning.

The doorway of the weapons store.

Black pressed around the players.

Looking at the empty shelves, everyone suddenly sighed and howled.

"Mom, I'm one step too late!"

"Gan! Sure enough, it sold out! ”

In yesterday's battle, not only 32 players were promoted to LV10, but 57 players finally broke 10,000 cumulative contribution points, and they were gloriously upgraded to intermediate citizens.

And the per capita income is more than 400 silver, and the highest is even 600 silver!

For them who had an average daily income of only 10 silver coins a few months ago, this is a lot of money!

The conditions for the purchase of the Miner Type I exoskeleton are LV10 and intermediate citizens, and the price has not changed, and it has always been 2000 silver in good conscience.

However, there are only 8 sets of equipment on the shelves in total.

Almost as soon as the battle reward settlement was completed, these 8 exoskeletons were sold out in an instant.

At this moment, everyone finally realized that if the task reward is too much, it may not be all good.

It is foreseeable that the price of ramen tonight will increase for a certain amount......

Looking at the angry crowd, the battlefield atmosphere team smiled, had already put on this set of orange painted exoskeletons, clenched their fists, and moved their lower limbs.

"Is this the power of technology? That's good. ”

Yesterday, when he listened to the discussion, he guessed that this might be the case.

So, in the game, he went online before dawn, and the weapon shop hadn't opened yet, and people were already standing at the door and queuing.

As soon as the campaign reward was settled, counting the reward of nearly 600 silver coins, his deposit just exceeded 2,000 silver, and he decisively bought the "Miner I" exoskeleton.

It turned out to be a very wise decision.

Looking at the little players who regretted not coming earlier, he finally experienced the feeling of a spring water brother.

It's a great feeling!

Edge paddled and glanced at him.

"Cut, I don't need this thing."

The Battlefield Atmosphere Group grinned.

"Brother, if you envy me, just say it, don't beat around the bush so much. Want to play? I'll dress you for a while. ”

Edge paddling: "Envy a hammer, this thing wears it, and the resurrection cost is directly 2000, if you explode the equipment once, go directly back to before liberation." ”

Even if you wear an exoskeleton, even if you install a steel plate, it's just a few more shuttles.

Why bother?

Wouldn't it be better not to get shot?

Wearing this thing is easy to become a target for fire, even if the steel plate is thick, it is impossible to carry a barrel with a depth of hundreds like power armor.

Cheap and easy-to-use equipment is good equipment, and he is too lazy to fix all this bells and whistles.

Of course, part of the reason is that he didn't buy it.

"......"

After listening to the words of the fringe guy, the battlefield atmosphere group was stunned.

Glancing at the equipment on his body, he instantly felt that it was not so fragrant.

Why are you wearing this?

Don't die once and don't die in distress!

Although there are many people who regret buying it, for players who don't buy it, those quick brothers are still very enviable.

Unfortunately, the equipment is bound and cannot be purchased from other players.

But then again, even if you can trade, no one will sell it at all.

Those who can afford it have about the same amount of silver coins in their pockets, except for a few local tyrants, it is impossible to offer too outrageous prices.

As for over-the-counter trading with RMB......

Not to mention that the official has clearly stated that the security of the transaction is not guaranteed, and the consequences of being deceived are at your own risk, even if there is a third-party guarantee, this thing can't be priced.

How to price equipment in the closed beta stage?

100,000?

1 million?

Maybe wait for the public beta, and the god pretends to become a tabula rasa in seconds, so it won't crack directly in place.

Why is the closed beta called the closed beta, isn't it because the rules of the game are not perfect?

There is no charge and no deletion, compared to those games that charge money and treat players as monkeys, this game is already very conscientious!

However, this does not prevent players who have not bought equipment from spitting out the fragrance of anger.

"MMP, can you fix the bug that the NPC store is not restocked? When will this bug be fixed? ”

"When will the caravan come again, the blizzard has stopped!"

"I secretly asked the planner, and the planner told me to get out, and told me that I wanted to equip myself to fight."

"I testify, this is definitely not what Brother Guang said, with Brother Guang's high emotional intelligence, he will definitely not let you go, at most he will play stupid with you, and kick the ball to art or R&D."

"I experienced the pain of having money and nowhere to spend it."

"Anyway, there's an exoskeleton there!"

"Five-style 'light cavalry' exoskeleton, lying down, looks so handsome!"

"Selling price...... Twenty thousand?! Walked away. ”

"Gan! And high-ranking citizens! 50,000 points contribution!? I've just reached the intermediate level! ”

"After visually measuring the power armor to get 100,000 points of contribution to the 'knight', this is very reasonable, and the manual is funny."

There is no level requirement for "Wasteland Online" equipment, as long as the attributes can be controlled, it can be used, and it can be forcibly used if it can't be controlled.

However, some rare equipment that is restocked casually, and there is a need for contribution points if you want to buy it.

The premise of the game is that these important assets that belong to the Vault cannot be stably obtained and are scarce, and can only be prioritized for residents who have made outstanding contributions to the collective.

In front of the counter.

Xia Yan, who was holding her arms, looked at the group of depressed players with an expressionless face, and patiently repeated her lines over and over again.

"Sold out, sold out, don't ask again."

"Wait for the next caravan."

The only thing that makes players feel relieved is that Boss Xia's Mandarin is becoming more and more standard.

At this moment, Heya, with long silver hair, walked from the direction of the sanatorium with a wooden frame.

Placing the wooden frame on the counter of the weapon shop, Heya said something to Boss Xia.

I saw that Boss Xia nodded as if he didn't understand, then took out a pen from the table, found a wooden board and wrote a line of words, and then hung it on the shelf.

["Torch" telepathometer]

Then, Boss Xia picked out something like an earphone from the wooden frame and placed it on the shelf.

Meanwhile.

The encyclopedia page of the player's VM has also been updated with a description of this item.

[Effect: Through a simple surgical operation, the aliens of the lower minds can be made to obey orders.] The scope of application includes death claws, mutant brown bears, etc., and cannot be used for non-mindless life forms (such as slime mold xenotypes)]

[Requirements: Contribution level reaches the citizen, intelligence attribute greater than 10.] 】

[Price: 2000 Silver Coins (excluding surgery fee)]

After reading the instructions.

The atmosphere around the weapons store boiled instantly.
