When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 692: The Unpredictable Man

The more Li Wenhao thought about it, the more it made sense.

“You need to discuss this with another player in Project Star, and the two players must reach a consensus and both use this method of damaging one’s virtue to clear the game, and then you can transform Xia Mi’s AI.

“No, it seems that there is more than one way. What is important is not what is said specifically, but the process of ‘communication and reaching consensus’!

“Once the two players reach an agreement, Xia Mi’s AI will be influenced by both players. The key is to communicate more and have the same goal!
"So, those players who don't communicate and just rely on the other party's efforts to win will never be able to complete "God Forsaken City"?

"There is such a thing!"

Li Wenhao is very smart and is very familiar with the mechanisms of the two games "City of God Forsaken" and "Star Project", so after some analysis, he quickly came to a conclusion that is close to the correct one.

Obviously, there is a connection between these two games, and there is a trap!
If a player is lucky enough to be recommended in "Star Project" and passes the level in the simplest way without much communication with his partner, then Chamuel's AI in "God Forsaken City" will be locked.

He will never be able to complete "The City Forsaken by God".

However, if a player cooperates closely with another player in "Star Project" and communicates frequently to reach a consensus, then even if he has not completed the game, Xia Mi's AI will be affected and some changes will occur.

The extent of Xia Mi's AI changes directly determines the difficulty for players to complete "The City Forsaken by Gods".

Players like Li Wenhao who guide novice players through levels and communicate frequently will gain a great advantage when playing "God Forsaken City" and can even complete the game without any pressure.

……

On YouTube, the largest overseas live streaming platform, XBC is challenging "The Fire Thief".

This game is only open to level 70. At first glance, it is not difficult to complete compared to other games, but after actually playing it, you will find that there are many pitfalls!

This game has 16 players in a single round, and the whole network is randomly matched.

When a player goes offline or quits for a period of time, he will become a Lost Heart and no new players will be added.

It is precisely because of this mechanism that it becomes very difficult to complete the game.

The first moment you enter the game, the goal of passing the level is clearly stated: complete the construction of the main building, the "Great Pyramid".

The Great Pyramid is an official building in the normal flow of the game. It has a fixed blueprint and must be built at a designated location according to the blueprint to be effective.

During this process, the fire thieves have to continue to collect materials, while the laborers outside have to continue to build the buildings in front.

They also have to withstand the threat of earthquakes again and again.

Slowly, some players will run away in pain and become lost, so that there are fewer and fewer active players.

And when there are only three or five people left in this game, even if they manage to complete the construction of the Great Pyramid, they will encounter a terrible soul-searching problem.

Who will put the last brick?

The person who places the last brick will not be considered to have completed the level, but the other active players will be considered to have completed the level.

Purely sacrifice yourself to achieve others.

You have to know that we are all pure passers-by in the match. It has not been easy to get to this point, and we have all put in a lot of effort and hard work.

What's more, there is the temptation of bonuses.

Therefore, no one is willing to be the one who makes the sacrifice, and the situation often becomes deadlocked. When there is only the last brick left, no one will let go and just watch.

Many games get stuck here, causing players to create countless negative emotions.

……

And Shi Bi De is challenging "The Legend of Sleeping Dragon".

After visiting China once, he suddenly felt extremely confident in himself and insisted that he knew Chinese culture very well. After all, he even had a Chinese name.

Even though the comments were full of mockery, Shi Bi De still decisively entered into "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", a world that was completely incomprehensible to him.

After all, he had no idea who Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were, and even the translations of skill names like "Wolongce" made him confused.

But it doesn’t matter, just play it hard!

For the world's best anchor who is good at creating program effects, this is no big deal.

"WAIT, so this Guan Yu is also one of the people I must protect?

“Because he’s a good BRO for me in the future?

"WTF, he's dead right up here, how can I protect him?"

Seeing Shi Bi De's confused expression, the barrage of comments started to become active, and they began to explain to him the background of this game and why no one has been able to complete it yet.

Simply put, this game originally had a hidden mechanism, which was that through the nesting of Wolongce, other NPCs could also awaken the omniscient perspective, and thus use historical knowledge to easily add fuel to the fire and allow themselves to survive.

But unfortunately, in the family version of "Shadow World", this hidden mechanism has been fixed by You Tiantang and cannot be used.

This caused the game to return to the terrible state it was in the beginning, and most players believed that it was theoretically impossible to complete.

To make matters worse, this version has an even more inhumane setting.

Not only Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, but almost all the main characters of Shu Han were set as the chosen ones!

The other forces are almost all demons, and the demons will give priority to hunting down these people with destiny.

Originally, the only people who were destined to win were Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. Although the players were powerless to save the situation, they could more or less fight against these monsters. After all, this hatred mechanism is not full-screen.

But now, once these main characters are separated, they almost immediately fall apart.

Even if they don't separate, the encirclement and suppression they encounter from demonic forces will be more difficult than in the original version.

This is a very difficult situation. For example, Zhao Yun was initially under Gongsun Zan. He was safe before he defected to Liu Bei.

But now, before he could even join Liu Bei, Zhao Yun was already being hunted down by various forces, and was simply unable to do anything alone.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei will also be ruthlessly hunted down once they are temporarily separated from Liu Bei due to the plot line.

Before the player has time to do anything, all the main characters of Shu Han have died. What's the point of playing this game?

Of course, these people are not that fragile. After all, they are all capable of defeating thousands of enemies. Characters like Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun can still hold on for a while even if they are surrounded by many hostile forces.

But the problem is that during the time they persisted, players could do nothing at all, and Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei could hardly protect themselves.

Even many players who are familiar with the history of the Three Kingdoms are stuck here, and they greet Nitiantang’s family tree every day.

However, many overseas players believe that the method of cracking this time should not be related to the plot.

After all, the challenge of the whole family bucket of Against the Heaven is aimed at players all over the world. Even if there are some hidden mechanisms, they should be the kind that players all over the world can theoretically discover, and will not be limited by cultural background.

Otherwise, wouldn’t it be too beneficial for domestic players?

Therefore, many foreign players have not given up their research on it, and Shi Bi De is one of them.

But so far, there has been basically no progress.

“OK, what do I do with these people now?
"A treasure bag?
"OK, then what? Let them take the initiative, or do nothing? Can these so-called strategies really work?"

Shi Bi De is still studying.

Before these characters join up with Zhuge Liang played by the player, the player cannot directly control their behavior and can only use tips to influence their behavior patterns.

Therefore, the actions of these characters are basically difficult to predict.

The player controls Zhuge Liang, and his primary goal is to protect himself and avoid being hunted down by various demons. The second goal is to influence the behavior of other characters in the Shu Han camp as much as possible and reunite as soon as possible.

Originally, the treasure bag could give special strategies such as stargazing and warding off evil spirits to other characters, but now the bug has been fixed and a mask has been added, so the treasure bag can only give some general strategies such as "sneaking into Chencang", "luring the tiger away from the mountain", and "fishing in troubled waters".

After playing for a while, Shi Bi De had roughly figured out how to play the game. Running around in the early stages could at least ensure that Zhuge Liang would not die.

So the next problem to be solved is how to use the magic bag to give these generals so that as many people as possible can survive.

"'Sneak into Chencang'? It's useless!

"'Go straight to Huanglong'? It's useless!

"'Luring the tiger away from the mountain'? It's no use!
"It's all useless. Are you sure there's any point in giving these people tips?"

After trying many times in a row, Shi Bi De was also somewhat defeated.

Obviously, these conventional military strategies have relatively strict conditions for being effective.

The probability of success is calculated comprehensively based on factors such as the situation at the time, the combat power comparison of the two sides, the attribute diagrams of the generals of both sides, etc.

This is completely different from the priority of causal weapons like Wolongce.

Because most of these generals did not have their own forces at this time, they did not have much resistance when facing the monsters. Even if they used the secret strategies, they still could not make up for the huge gap in strength between the enemy and us.

“Are there any strategies you haven’t used yet?

"'Stay still'?
"Hey, are you sure this is going to work? You shouldn't be clicking this, literally!"

Shi Bi De was also a little speechless, because the audience in the live broadcast room were almost asking him to try the exhaustive method.

There are many conventional military operations in this game. Most of them were idioms originally. After being translated into English, although they have lost the original beauty of the language, the basic meaning can still be understood.

To put it bluntly, keeping the troops in place means telling these generals not to do anything.

Isn't this actually counterproductive?

You know, the secret bag can only be used once per round, and can only be given to one general.

If the magic bag is not used, these generals will act according to their own will. They may run away or resist. But no matter what, the generals under the control of fake-AI can still survive more or less.

But if they do nothing, it means that these generals will stay where they are and do nothing.

Not only did it waste Zhuge Liang's chance of a secret weapon, but it also greatly reduced the survival rate of these generals, which was already low.

But all the other strategies have been almost used up, so this time won’t make a difference.

Shi Bi De directly clicked on the "Tips" and then used the "Keep the Troops in Place" skill on Zhao Yun.

Because in this game, when Liu, Guan and Zhang form a group at the beginning, Zhao Yun is often the first to die, so even if you want to save him, you should save him first.

Sure enough, nothing happened in this round.
