Being beaten and losing blood is a matter of course!
This is as unquestionable as repaying a debt. As the core mechanism of the game, Chen Ba believes that there is no problem with this.
Yu Wenjie did lose blood.
But the problem is that I don’t know where the blood he deducted went, let alone how it was deducted. Anyway, it is recorded, but he is still at full health…
This created the illusion of “blood locking”, which was what everyone believed to be a “cheating” after the video circulated in the community.
Chen Ba could clarify that Yu Wenjie was not cheating, but his flippant words were useless. He still had to provide evidence to prove that Yu Wenjie was not cheating.
“Now there is a way!”
Xiao Lu, who observed the changes in Brother Ba’s expression, proposed a more reasonable solution.
That is to define this incident as a game bug. In this way, the suspicion of cheating on Yu Wenjie will be cleared, and no one will attack or abuse him again.
“But……”
Chen Ba said speechlessly: “With your method, Yu Wenjie will definitely not be attacked, but what about me? What should I do?”
What a trick to divert trouble to the east!
Someone is always going to be scolded anyway, so why can’t we divert the conflict and transfer the players’ anger from Yu Wenjie to Brother Ba?
“Shut up now!”
“Remember, our Tianba Studio can admit anything, we can put any blame on our head, we can take any blame, but we cannot admit that there is a problem with our game.”
Chen Ba once again reiterated the core philosophy of the studio, saying that there was something wrong with Xiao Lu’s thinking. How could he conclude that this was a game bug without any evidence?
“What else could it be if it wasn’t a bug? Don’t tell me, this is also your special design?” Xiao Lu said speechlessly.
“Probably…”
Chen Ba, who always felt weird, bit the bullet and said, “Don’t worry about it for now. Let me ask you, where did Yu Wenjie’s blood that should have been deducted go?”
“how could I know?”
Xiao Lu couldn’t laugh or cry: “I have checked and reviewed this game more than 20 times. I dare to use my career as a guarantee that everything is normal in this game!”
Xiao Lu studied the game between Yu Wenjie and the victimized player repeatedly. His hair almost fell out, and he could only come to the conclusion that there was no problem.
No problem really!
The parameters and codes in the game are all normal. There are no abnormalities or special circumstances. The client and server have all been checked. This game is a normal game.
This…what else can be done?
Xiao Lu really couldn’t understand that in one game, two players reported problems, but as a game developer and operator, why did they investigate for a long time but found nothing?
Could it be a supernatural phenomenon?
The previous divination system of “Once Upon a Time in a Mountain Village” made Xiao Lu believe in the so-called metaphysics.
This scene couldn’t help but make him a little scared. No abnormality could be found, but it showed that it was an abnormal game. What else could it be if it wasn’t a supernatural phenomenon?
Brother Ba opened a “super administrator” account to help Yu Wenjie cheat?
Come on!
Brother Ba has no relationship with Yu Wenjie, and they don’t know each other. Why should he open a super administrator account to help him cheat and cover up his traces?
If I have to say it, the probability of Brother Ba opening a super administrator account to privately chat with female players and engaging in online dating is probably a hundred times higher than this!
all in all.
Excluding the only possibility, which is that the super administrator uses his authority to interfere with the game process, this problem can only be described as “haunted”.
“Don’t do anything feudal and superstitious. This is obviously a problem in the game. It’s just that we haven’t found the root of the problem.”
Chen Ba curled his lips and said: “But it’s really weird. The blood is obviously locked, so why can’t there be any abnormalities found in the game?”
It’s like an invisible big hand has forcibly intervened in this game, and it has not left any traces, or… it has left traces, but what “it” did is in line with the game mechanics, so it can’t be seen Something went wrong.
But the problem is here again!
Apart from the super administrator account, Chen Ba really can’t think of any other possibility that can do this.
The main thing is that it leaves no trace, which is so head-scratching.
This is why Chen Ba refuted Xiao Lu and felt that this was not a “game bug”.
That’s right!
The main reason why he didn’t admit that this was a game bug, even in private, was because all these behaviors did not meet the criteria for determining a game bug.
Game bugs must at least have abnormal phenomena and situations. In other words, if this is a game bug, then they will definitely be able to detect clues.
No game bug can escape the eyes of the game producers after being exposed.
The players were looking forward to it, but Chen Ba and Xiao Lu spent a long time in front of the computer, but they still couldn’t give a reply, and they couldn’t issue an announcement to Yu Wenjie to prove that the source of innocence lies here.
Cheating? no!
Game bug? Neither!
So what’s going on? Why do players get beaten but don’t lose any blood?
“Brother Ba, why don’t you forget it?”
Xiao Lu was a little hungry and really didn’t want to continue toiling with Brother Ba, mainly because it was completely useless work.
If something can be discovered after struggling, even if the problem cannot be solved for a while after it is discovered, the frustration will not be that strong at least.
But the two of them had been tinkering for a long time, but they didn’t even know what the problem was. What else could it be if this wasn’t in vain?
If you have this time, it is better to fill your stomach first, and then think carefully about whether you have missed any key points, or look for new ways to break the situation.
“Eat, eat, eat. You know how to eat. Apart from eating and sleeping, what else do you do?”
Chen Ba cursed with hatred: “Do you know how many player feedbacks I received via private message? More than 35,000! With so many players waiting for news, can you afford to eat?”
“So many?”
Xiao Lu’s eyes widened, as if he didn’t expect that the incident would cause such a big disturbance.
There are more than 35,000 private messages. If they are all feedback on this issue, Brother Naha will really have a headache. No wonder he is so anxious and uneasy.
“Let me see……”
After being scolded by Brother Ba, Xiao Lu gave up the idea of eating.
But he couldn’t think of any other way for the time being. He could only use Brother Ba’s mobile phone to read the private messages in the background, trying to find new clues from these messages.
This is incredible!
Brother Ba’s backstage private messages were really wonderful, far more exciting than Xiao Lu imagined, and he was so happy to see them.
Some people spit out sweet smells, and when they come up, they catch Brother Ba and scold him, and then they have to say “continue tomorrow” when they are done.
Some people boldly expressed their love. I don’t know where they found out that Brother Ba likes long legs. The private message was full of photos of legs. Brother Ba even took the time to reply, “Is it me?”, but he was laughed at. “Brother Ba, you are really hungry.” , two ham sausages can fool you.”
There are also people who write short essays, with hundreds or even thousands of words, full of various suggestions or ideas about the game. They seem quite serious, but the “V Me 50 unlock follow-up” at the end makes Xiao Lu really unstoppable.
What’s more, well…
Xiao Lu slid his finger and planned to read the next fan private message. He thought it was another funny private message, but he never expected that this private message did not have a picture of his legs or a sweet breath, but it turned out to be a serious feedback about problems in the game.
The question he reported back turned out to be about a strange bug in the newly released “Star Emperor 2” and the accompanying “Galaxy” peripheral set.
…
The Galaxy suit, which he bought for hundreds of dollars, broke down in less than a day, which made Zhao Yunlong embarrassed in front of netizens.
It was originally agreed that the so-called “Galaxy” suit would be given to the live broadcast room audience to experience in the afternoon of the day after the goods were received.
Unfortunately, the equipment failed.
When he told the few water friends in the live broadcast room about this, he was laughed at by everyone, and they all said that he was a great injustice that was rare to see in a century.
“I can’t bear this grievance…”
Who is Zhao Yunlong? How could he bear this grievance? Not only did he contact the after-sales service of Mirage Electronics to request a return, but he also sent a private message to Brother Ba, feedback on the relevant issues, and hoped that Brother Ba would give an explanation.
High EQ: Give me an explanation!
Low EQ: Brother Ba, look at the valuable peripherals you made. It has caused me so much harm. I don’t think it’s justified if I don’t compensate for some mental damage, right?
Of course, this is just a show effect.
The private message was sent, and Zhao Yunlong didn’t expect Brother Ba to really reply to him.
After all, as we all know, Brother Ba receives a lot of private messages every day, and among the many private messages, only those guys who post photos of their legs and engage in online dating receive replies.
Just contact after-sales.
The reason why Zhao Yunlong sent this private message was purely to create a show effect in front of the audience in the live broadcast room and attract more viewers to watch his live broadcast.
But he never expected that he would receive a reply from Brother Ba not long after he sent a private message for the purpose of promoting the show.
“Zun Du Fake Du?”
The first time he received the reply, Zhao Yunlong couldn’t believe it. Brother Ba actually replied to him?
After taking a look, he was the real Brother Ba!
Not only did I reply to him, I also said that I would add his contact information and ask for more details.
Hold the grass!
He is an ordinary “Star Emperor 2” player and a new anchor who has just started his live broadcast career. He actually added Brother Ba’s WeChat account. Who dares to believe this?
“You said that after you used the Galaxy Suit to play against a player, something went wrong with the device?”
After adding the contact information, Zhao Yunlong was stunned for a moment when he saw the message from Brother Ba, and then decisively replied: “Yes, that’s it!”
“Then the nickname of the player you are playing against is [Jie Ge, I don’t want you anymore]?”
“It’s this ID!”
Zhao Yunlong remembered it. It seemed that in the game where he used Galaxy equipment to enter the Immortal Road, the ID on the opposite side was called this name.
“OK, please describe in detail the specific process of that game. The more detailed the better…”
Zhao Yunlong didn’t know that after his private message was seen by Xiao Lu, Tianba Studio immediately gathered people and launched an investigation into the game between him and [Jie Ge Don’t Want It].
Everyone was shocked by this investigation.
Chen Ba and Xiao Lu struggled for a long time, but they still couldn’t find the breakthrough and the source of the problem. It was actually in this game. They had been looking in the wrong direction when they were looking at another game.
simply put.
Yu Wenjie, also known as “Jie Ge Don’t Want It”, first played a game with Zhao Yunlong, and then played a game with another player.
It caused heated discussions in the community. The “blood lock” phenomenon that everyone discussed occurred in the second game. This is why Chen Ba and Xiao Lu focused on investigating the second game.
But actually…
The reason why Yu Wenjie was able to “lock blood” was not the second game, but the first game when he played against Zhao Yunlong.
Through Zhao Yunlong’s supplementary explanation of the situation, as well as the game backend’s troubleshooting and retesting of that game, Chen Ba finally found the answer.
“Galaxy suit?”
“No! To be precise, this has nothing to do with the hardware itself, but something wrong with the driver!”
“How could a problem with the driver lead to abnormal phenomena in the second game? Generally speaking, if there is a problem with the driver, only the player himself will be affected, and other players will not be implicated…”
Xiao Lu was puzzled.
Brother Ba said that this was a problem caused by the driver. He thought this statement was nonsense. Whose driver had problems and could it affect the gaming experience of other players?
To put it more directly, whose hardware driver can affect the game?
“You are right. It is true that ordinary hardware drivers will not affect the game or other players no matter what.”
Chen Ba explained: “But is there a possibility that the Galaxy peripherals are exclusive peripherals for “Star Emperor 2″ and the two are highly bundled?”
Another point.
The drivers for Galaxy peripherals and the core program of “Star Emperor 2” are all written by one person.
this is the key of the problem!
“You mean…”
Xiao Lu frowned and asked: “An unknown bug or situation occurred in the driver of the Galaxy peripherals, causing a chain reaction in the game and ultimately affecting other players?”
“That’s right!”
Chen Ba nodded: “The driver problem is probably caused by the game crashing and then reconnecting. I won’t discuss the specific problem for now.”
“In short, this unknown driver bug caused a chain reaction in the core program of the game, causing player A’s input device to replace player B’s input device…”
Zhao Yunlong used the Galaxy set, but the game crashed and then reconnected, causing an unknown problem with the driver.
Because of this problem, the Galaxy suit used by Zhao Yunlong was connected to his opponent in the previous game, who was playing the role of Yu Wenjie.
So…
Zhao Yunlong used Galaxy peripherals to successfully “seize” Yu Wenjie’s character when Yu Wenjie was typing and chatting, calling up the input box and input method, and Yu Wenjie lost the right to control the character.
Let’s go back to the initial feedback from players, which is the “blood lock” phenomenon that appeared in the video.
The answer is already obvious!
Yu Wenjie was indeed beaten, and his blood was indeed deducted. But because of the existence of this bug, it is actually Zhao Yunlong who is controlling his character, so it is Zhao Yunlong’s blood that is deducted.
This is also the reason why Zhao Yunlong mentioned that after wearing the Galaxy suit, the device sent out “hit” feedback even though no operation was performed.
It seems that Yu Wenjie is being beaten, but in fact it is Zhao Yunlong who is thousands of miles away. Of course Yu Wenjie is not losing blood. How can he lose blood out of thin air when he has not been “hurt”?
On the contrary, Zhao Yunlong did nothing, and his character inexplicably became “severely injured and disabled”…
It’s broken, he has become a substitute!
