Chapter 92: Stocking NPCs

Come out and mix, the most important thing is that there are enough brothers!

The people of the entire Divine Grace Continent are either my brother or my brother's brother, just a monster, what are you going to do to fight with my brave?

Believe it or not, my good brother who rocked a train, drowned you with a mouthful of spit?

The situation reported by Xiao Lu attracted Chen Ba's great attention, and he immediately got up and came to the computer to check the situation without washing his face.

Really......

Under certain conditions, NPCs can also raid NPCs, recruit followers, and even get married and have children.

The so-called "specific conditions", in addition to the gift giving mentioned by Xiao Lu, there are other ways to trigger.

It can be triggered by increasing the friendship between two NPCs from friendly or neutral to chasing.

For example, recruit two NPC teammates and take them to farm monsters together.

During this time, in addition to the player's intimacy with NPC teammates, the intimacy between two NPC teammates will also slowly increase.

After two NPC teammates break through the boundaries of their intimacy with each other, choosing to kick out an NPC teammate will reduce the player's friendship with that NPC, and then trying to recruit will have the same effect.

The logic is actually quite simple.

NPCs have two sets of favor, one for the player and one for other NPCs.

The Brave recruited NPC Zhang San as a teammate, and Zhang San followed the Brave's actions and fought together.

And the NPC Li Si did not meet the conditions for following the brave, but met the conditions for following Zhang San. Then the brave click on the recruitment will occur the phenomenon of "Li Si is not in the team, but he can fight with Zhang San".

"I didn't expect this bug!"

Yang Dong, who had just finished drinking a cup of milk tea, came over and said, "Why didn't we find out in the testing stage that NPCs can still recruit teammates?" ”

This problem is not easy to solve!

Chen Ba rubbed his eyebrows, feeling that this matter was really tricky.

This is similar to the favorability bug that Xiao Lu found before, the difference is that the bug that Xiao Lu discovered last time was rooted in the favorability program they wrote themselves.

So it's fairly easy to modify.

But this time, the main root cause of the bug is the hidden friendship between NPCs.

This isn't the code they wrote, it's part of the NPC generator that comes with it.

Plainly.

The favorability system of Tianba Studio can only cover the part of NPCs and players (braves).

As for the relationship between NPCs and NPCs, Tianba Studio has never written any code in this regard, and it is all automatically generated by the program......

"It's broken, it's a trick!"

Chen Ba suddenly realized, and at this moment he suddenly understood that the abnormal favorability bug that Xiao Lu had discovered before was just a cover.

Here's the real scourge!

But even if he found the source of evil, Chen Ba didn't have a good way.

After all, the playability of the game "Divine Grace Continent" itself is based on the automatic generation program of NPCs provided by the system, without which it would be a garbage game.

If you want to fix this bug, you have to scrap the original NPC spawning scheme and replace it with a stake-type stupid NPC.

With this change, the problem has been solved, but the game "Divine Grace Continent" has also been scrapped......

"No, we have to find another way!"

One-size-fits-all definitely won't work.,The NPC generation program that the system has made is too much.,Without these colorful NPCs.,The playability of the game drops directly by several notches.。

It doesn't work if you don't leave it alone.

At the moment, this bug has caused great damage to the game environment.

As a brave player, call friends, use NPCs to attack NPCs, and collect a group of little brothers and horses to oppress monsters.

Is this still a brave man?

Those who know are brave, and those who don't know think that it is a bad social vitality organization! Your brave man went to crusade against the Demon King, and the battle was the same as attacking Ping'an County?

Don't be too outrageous!

Moreover, hundreds of NPCs appear on the same screen, and there are already players who have "the game is stuck".

"Illegal teaming is definitely not okay!"

Chen Ba first characterized the incident and said: "Immediately make an emergency patch to prohibit more than five combatants under any circumstances." ”

This modification can be done.

But when it comes to the most fundamental NPC strategy NPC mechanic, it's not easy to modify.

However, Chen Ba has already thought of a way.

Multiplayer squads are bugs, but NPCs can raid NPCs, which can be characterized as a "hidden mechanism" of the game!

When the player asked, he said that this was the hidden gameplay of their "Divine Grace Continent". Not only will the player not spray, but they may even praise them.

"In the Divine Grace Continent, everyone is a brave man!"

Chen Ba made a decision and said: "Brother Dong will make an announcement later, just say that we will carry out a round of blockbuster game updates later, and launch a new set of idle gameplay." ”

"Hang on?"

"Yes!"

Chen Ba also saw that since NPCs can attack the problem of NPCs, the root cause is the generation program provided by the system, which cannot be one-size-fits-all.

Let's think differently and reduce the impact of this bug without changing the nature of the game. It even makes this bug a special hidden mechanism in the game, coexisting with normal gameplay.

How to coexist?

Stocking NPC teammates, let him recruit his own partners to crusade against monsters, and let him build his own equipment to collect materials......

Commonly known as hang-up training!

Since the NPCs are so intelligent, then give them power, and as a brave player, you only need to take care of yourself.

"Will this work?"

Xiao Lu hesitated a little, he didn't believe in Brother Ba, he just felt that NPCs shouldn't be so smart, wouldn't stocking be the same as rotten?

"It's okay, you believe me!"

Chen Ba actually didn't know the bottom in his heart, after all, he had never seen an NPC in a game that would be so intelligent, and under the premise of being a brave free-ranger, he could still support his family by himself.

But "Divine Grace Continent" is different.

The NPC automatic generation program made by Tie Hanhan's system really gave him too many surprises.

These NPCs are all too good! What NPCs in other games can't do doesn't mean that NPCs in Grace Continent can't do it.

After all, before that......

There have been outrageous incidents such as NPC robbing players, NPC cheating on marriage, and bride price.

It's hard to say what this game will become when these NPCs are completely untethered and given them free rein to play.

……

Two days later.

Sharp-eyed players saw the update announcement of "Divine Grace Continent" in the Tianba community and the game's homepage.

The update announcement is long.

In the announcement, Tianba Studio said that the abnormal number of team members is a game bug, and an emergency patch has been released to fix it, and there will be no more hundreds or even thousands of people in a team.

However, the situation where an NPC follows another NPC is not a game bug, but a hidden mechanism unique to Grace Continent......

In response to this hidden mechanism, Tianba Studio has worked hard to release the latest version of the game, bringing a super cool new way to play to the majority of players.

NPCs can be stocked!

In the new version, players can recruit NPC teammates to join the team, and there are two ways to train.

The first is still the same, the brave always takes his teammates with him, takes him to upgrade, collects materials to build equipment for him, and trains him like a son.

The second is free movement, where the Brave's NPC teammates will not follow the Brave all the time, but will run around.

As for what these NPCs will do in free action mode, no one knows......

The only benefit of the Brave is that they can summon that NPC teammate back to their side when needed. In this way, when attacking plot bosses or powerful monsters, the team will not be short of people.

"Stocking NPCs?"

After Qian Xin finished reading the update announcement, he entered the game and took a look, and sure enough, a new "free action" mode switch option was added to the menu bar of the four NPC teammates.

What's the use of this?

Glancing at the attributes, levels, and equipment of the four teammates, with the idea of giving it a try, Qian Xin opened the free movement for "Clark".

Clark is a team shortcoming.

Qian Xin didn't invest too many resources in training him, and he didn't even have extra equipment for him.

Although he is already level 41, Clark still uses the most basic level 10-15 normal equipment.

This kind of teammate is what makes up the numbers.

He transferred Clark to a light mage, and he added a status or buff to other teammates if he was fine, and he didn't expect him to play damage resistance, and it didn't matter if he was stocked.

After turning on the free movement mode, Clark really changed.

Even if Qian Xin took the remaining three teammates to farm monsters in the wild, he would not follow the action, but ran to the town alone, not knowing why he went.

Qian Xin didn't care about him.

Tianba Studio officially said that after NPCs turn on the free action mode, the behavior logic is unpredictable and not affected by the player.

What do you like, don't go out into the wild alone, and then die......

After brushing the materials for half an hour, Qian Xin created an epic gauntlet for the fire mage. I didn't expect to be lucky this time, the gauntlet comes with an entry of +16% fire elemental damage bonus.

It's a small thing!

Fire Mage is now the most popular class, because of the high group damage, whether it is cleaning up miscellaneous mobs, or daily farming material gold coins are very useful.

Therefore, the equipment with its own fire entry is basically a sought-after item, and it can envy countless people if it comes out with one.

"Yes, I've graduated from the Fire Law."

Glancing at the epic equipment of the fire mage, Qian Xin nodded contentedly, he could start raising a nurse in two days.

When the nurse is also raised, she will almost be able to pass the main plot of the Orc Empire, and then brush up the level to prepare for the crusade against the Demon King.

By the way, what about Clark?

Qian Xin, who hadn't seen Clark for half an hour, was a little curious about what this guy was doing, so he used the team to summon him back to his side.

As a result, as soon as Clark came back and glanced at his equipment bar, Qian Xin was stunned.

it!

Didn't this cargo wear a whiteboard outfit half an hour ago? Where did the Legendary Ring come from?

Tried to remove the equipment, but the system said "Free Action NPC equipment cannot be replaced".

"What's going on?"

Seeing that he couldn't disassemble Clark's equipment for the fire mage to use, Qian Xin was wondering, and after a glance, he suddenly saw Clark, an NPC teammate who was free-ranged by himself, holding the hand of another NPC young woman.

And above the head of the NPC young woman, there was a line of words:

"Hera - Countess"

Qian Xin: "......"

What do you mean? In half an hour, you kid hooked up with the countess and gave him a legendary ring?

He is a brave man, why hasn't he encountered such a good thing?
