When the bug of abnormal movement speed was detected, the whole studio was taken aback.

Fortunately, because it was discovered in time and the cause of the bug was relatively clear, it was relatively easy to solve the problem.

Chen Ba's solution is not to do anything with the original values and codes, but to add a new code to it.

This is done by locking the upper limit of the character's "movement speed" in the game!

In this way, even if the bug still exists, but the game value is locked to the upper limit, the effect of the stacked value will be nullified, and the bug will be solved in disguise.

"Treat the symptoms but not the root cause!"

Xiao Lu disagreed, pointing out that there may be unknown hidden dangers in doing so, and it is better to solve the bug at the root.

"The best solution is to solve the problem at the root, but ......"

"Time waits for no one! To eradicate this bug at the root, it would take a lot of rework, which would be a waste of time. ”

Chen Ba shook his head and said: "As long as the problem can be solved and the code can run smoothly, then there is no problem, as for what you are worried about, it is not for us to consider." ”

Here's how to write a program.

A bunch of code that seems to be defended can run smoothly, doesn't the program ape know that this is a mountain of code?

He knows!

But you know, sometimes the code is written, and it is best to run, as for optimizing a mountain of code to the perfect state, how much work does it have to add?

And can you guarantee that the optimized code will really run as smoothly as before?

It's the same with making games.

Sometimes, when there is a bug or other problem in the game, the common solution for developers is not to tinker with the original code, but to add a new string of code to it.

Who doesn't know that tearing down and starting over is the best solution? But the question is, do you have that much time, money, and energy?

Taking several popular online games on the market as examples, CF and LOL are typical "Shishan codes".

These two games are so popular and played by so many people that the developers didn't think about rebuilding them, but continued to add new defense codes on the basis of the Shishan code.

So it's not a big deal at all.

As long as the game can run, as long as the player's game experience is guaranteed, as for the potential hidden dangers or something, it's really not worth mentioning.

Not to mention......

On the premise of blocking the upper limit of the game's values, Chen Ba does not think that there will be any hidden dangers in this "numerical superposition" bug.

"Well, you have the final say."

Xiao Lu nodded and said, "Then now the problem is solved, is the game ready for sale?" ”

"Absolutely!"

It's almost December, and if it's not on sale yet, do you want to have a good year?

Without waiting for Xiao Lu to continue to ask, Chen Ba made an arrangement and said: "Next weekend, the game will be on the shelves of Nobug, Steam, Wegame, E Bao and other platforms, and the pre-sale will be opened." ”

The PC version goes first, and the console version is delayed.

This is the consistent strategy of Tianba Studios, and it is also a standard new game release process.

The only difference may be that "The True Story of Abba has really not done much promotion" this time, and few people even know about this game, so I'm afraid the popularity will be very low.

It's not a big problem, though!

Originally, this game did not expect to recover the production cost by sales, nor was it for the purpose of making money, whether it sold 10 million copies or 1 million copies, it was acceptable to Chen Ba.

Of course!

Chen Ba has not done any publicity for "The True Story of Aba", which does not mean that this game is really not famous at all.

In the Tianba community, where sources are extremely wide and various uncles are rampant, sporadic discussions about "The True Story of Abba can also be seen occasionally".

In addition, a number of game media, that is, the media people who received the Cdkey of "The True Story of Aba" presented by Chen Ba, also posted special reports to introduce the game after a simple trial.

Among them, "Game Starry Sky" is definitely the most hard-working game information website.

On the same day that "Abba Story" was officially released, Game Star opened a special area on the website for players to check the basic guide and download and purchase links.

At the same time, thanks to the long-standing partnership, although Tianba Studio did not say hello in advance this time, Game Star still arranged for its "gold editor" Jiang Bin to write a trial report.

The same goes for other sites such as Game Detective abroad.

It's just that with the development of the times, the influence of these game media and game information websites is no longer so great.

So they spontaneously helped to promote a wave, which seemed to be huge, but in fact it helped the game sales very little.

As of the afternoon of the 12th.

"The True Story of Abba " was released on the whole platform for 6 hours, and the cumulative sales barely exceeded 50,000 copies, which is obviously not ideal for the "frequently popular" Tianba Studio.

……

"Brother Ba's new game?"

Liang Xuan, who had just opened the steam platform and was about to browse the leaderboard to see if there were any discount promotion games worth buying, suddenly saw a familiar "developer" name.

Jiangning Tianba game?

Isn't this the company that developed a variety of games such as "Xiuzhen Fantasy" and "Extreme Hurricane"?

Liang Xuan had heard of Tianba Studio, and had also played their games, and knew that this company should be the most famous game company in China at present.

Merely...... They have a new game, why hasn't there been any rumors? And this is a ......

Looking at the game evaluation page, there were only two or three hundred comments sporadically, Liang Xuan couldn't believe it, this was actually a new work from Tianba Studio!

What's the situation?

Tianba Studio is so popular, why is the new work so unpopular?

Forget it, no matter what!

Based on the good impression left by "Xiuzhen Fantasy", Liang Xuan still decisively paid for a copy of "The True Story of Aba", and didn't even read what the theme of the game was.

You don't have to look at it at all!

The game of Tianba Studio, it's over without a brain. Although "The True Story of Aba" is a new game, the original price of 198 yuan without any discount is a little expensive, but it is not fun and can be refunded!

The games were bought, and the game files were started to be downloaded in the background, so Liang Xuan took the time to check the introduction of the game "The True Story of Abba and the player evaluation".

"In the game "Abba Story", you will play as a young man with physical impairments and experience a different life ......"

The introduction to the game is rather brief, but everything that needs to be said has been said.

After glancing at the classification of the game, Liang Xuan roughly figured it out. "The True Story of Abba Story" should be an open-world game based on simulation and development, supplemented by exploration and adventure.

The main character of the game is called Abba and appears to be a disabled person.

In terms of gameplay, it is probably the player who takes on the role of Abba and makes Abba successful in a hyper-realistic game world in various ways.

The game supports online play, and it looks like it will be a GTA5-like battle system, and multiplayer teams up to complete the mission.

The actual screen looks okay!

In general, this kind of simulation development game will use the kind of cartoon style that is more "fresh and cute".

But "The True Story of Aba" is different, the actual graphics of this game look very "realistic", and the rendering effect and graphic expression are directly catching up with the 3A-level masterpieces.

Because the game has just been released, there are no valuable comments in the evaluation comment area, most of them are meaningless comments such as "today is the Niu Niu Festival, like Niu Niu to get longer" and "I bought it for my child, and my child likes it very much".

Ten minutes later, the game was ready.

Liang Xuan couldn't wait to open the game, and with the familiar "Tianba" handle Logo, he flashed by, and soon entered the main page of the game.

He wants to play online mode.

But it's a pity, I don't know if it's Brother Ba's potato server that blew up again, or if his family's network fluctuates very seriously, anyway, I tried several times, and it always prompted "server connection failed".

"I can't get in!"

After complaining, Liang Xuan reluctantly clicked on the stand-alone plot mode.

Since the server connection failed and you can't play the online mode, you can play the standalone first, not to mention familiarizing yourself with the gameplay and operation first.

Abba male, 23 years old......

As soon as he entered the game, Liang Xuan found that the protagonist Abba had obtained a permanent status - hearing impairment!

This seems to be a random draw?

Liang Xuan tried it and found that this state really had a big impact on the game experience, because even if he turned on the full volume of the game, the headphones were "dead silent".

If it weren't for the pop-up alert on the game's interface telling him that this was normal, he would have almost thought his headset was broken.

Of course!

If you can't hear it, you can't hear it.,Game sound and game BGM,Even if it's muted,,It's estimated that it won't have much impact.。

Liang Xuan thought so and thought so, but when he ran to do the novice guidance task with great interest, and found that in addition to not hearing the sound of the game, he didn't even pop up the line dialog box, he instantly stopped.

No......

If you can't hear the sound of the game, forget it.,Don't even give the game dialog box.,The lines and dialogues are all guessed.,How can this be played?

Special meow, I can't play a game and I have to learn a hand of "lip interpretation", right?

It's so hard to play!

The main character's Abba lines will be displayed normally, but the dialogue of other NPCs has no sound or text dialog, and you can only watch his mouth open and close the whole time.

It's no experience at all.,After all, except for the protagonist Aba's "self-talk", I don't know anything about what other people say, so how can I understand the plot?

Trivia!

Following the quest process, Liang Xuan found the quest NPC, and this quest NPC seemed to have said a long list of words to the protagonist, but Liang Xuan didn't know where the quest was because he couldn't hear it or see the dialog box.

it, it's off!

Liang Xuan didn't know how to proceed with the mission, because he didn't even know much about the mission information.

On his side, there is only the protagonist's words and the narrator's narrative information, and according to these materials, it seems that the next step of the mission is for him to find his "father who works on the construction site".

But here's the problem.

Where does his father work? Where should he go to find him? The game map is so big, he can't run around like a headless fly, right?

"I'll go, it's disgusting too."

Liang Xuan, who really has no good way, can only use his two legs and wander around the streets and alleys of the city to see which NPC has an exclamation mark on his head, and who is Aba's father.

Not to mention, the game scene is really well done, with the blessing of the latest generation of BTX graphics cards, the city streets are restored like real photos.

There's a bonus to that!

That is, wandering around in the game will give people the illusion of honey "shopping" in reality, because the scene is too realistic and too restored, so Liang Xuan is not bored at all.

Not only is he not bored, but he is even curious, every time he passes by a shop or a building, he has to try to see if he can get in, and if he can get in, it will be like a bandit entering the village.

Classic operation for RPG players!

Please, play this kind of game, let alone passing by a house, even if it's a garbage can on the side of the road, players won't let it go, it's time to flip it, anyway, it's not what you're afraid of?

What if something valuable comes up? Or is it a treasure that has been dug out of the trash?

As a senior RPG player, Liang Xuan's skill of rummaging through boxes and cabinets must be full, and every corner can be scavenged cleanly when he walks by.

And then...... And he was arrested!

Because the story of "The True Story of Aba" is set in modern times and is full of surveillance, he was imprisoned for three years for "theft".

In other games, time flows so fast that a day can pass in the blink of an eye. Some games that support "speed regulation" can also turn on the "fast forward mode", and a few months have passed with a casual click.

But the time flow speed of "Abba Story" is not fast, on the contrary, in the simulation development game, this time flow rate can even be called "turtle speed".

If you play normally, it will take at least 10 minutes to spend the day!

And Liang Xuan needs to be imprisoned for three years, that is, about 1,000 days, according to this time flow rate, he will be released from prison in 182 hours, and these 182 hours refer to the 182 hours in "reality".

Moreover, going offline does not count towards jail time, after all, you have quit the game, and the save must still be there at the moment of exit.

Liang Xuan: "......"

After learning this brutal truth, he broke his defenses.

No, buddy spent 198 to buy a game, played it for less than 1 hour, and you told me that it took 182 hours in prison to continue playing?

What a head!

Liang Xuan, who has never been so speechless in his life, realized the gold content of the sentence "The Internet is not a place outside the law" for the first time.

Whose game is so realistic?

As an RPG player, he needs to spend three years in prison for turning over boxes and cabinets, is this reasonable?

Saying......

While taking a screenshot and preparing to post it on the Internet, he complained that he spent 198 to buy a silver bracelet and a three-year package to eat and live in a gift package, and at the same time thought of another question.

Can this game reduce the sentence?

If you can, wouldn't you have to start a new save and start playing again?

"Forget it, let's open a new file!"

Shaking his head, Liang Xuan finally denied the idea of "reforming well and striving for commutation".

What a waste of time.

There's time for a good makeover, wouldn't it be nice to rebuild a save buddy?

Opening a new archive can also refresh the hearing impairment, you can hear the game voice, and see the game dialogue, why not open a new archive?
