Chapter 190: Speedrun without getting hurt? Speedrun without getting hurt!
During a live broadcast of a player playing Global Evolution, he strangely became the game boss and interacted with other players.
This attracted Chen Ba's attention.
Although it was time to get off work, he immediately called Xiao Lu, Dong Ge and others back to the studio to reproduce the problem and find the root cause.
"Don't worry about the issue of him evolving into a game boss. I just want to know how he interacts with other players."
Chen Ba was quite curious about this.
Because the issue of him becoming a plot boss is not beyond the scope of understanding. But interacting with other players in a single-player game and playing it as an online game is a bit outrageous.
How did he do it? In order to find out the secret, Chen Ba contacted Pan Yang, who had been disgraced and removed from his live stream, and after asking for his consent, he logged into his account to conduct a test.
“Hey!”
Xiao Lu opened another test account, and during the testing process, he quickly discovered something different.
"Brother Ba, look..."
"In this logical framework, the protagonist Chen Yun did not disappear. It was just because of an evolution bug that the game system identified him as a ferocious beast instead of a human."
"really!"
Chen Ba also saw it.
After he logged into Pan Yang's account, the golden eagle BOSS he controlled walked in the wilderness and would not be attacked by any ferocious beasts or monsters.
This is illogical.
Because the characters controlled by the players have extremely strong taunting abilities in the underlying code of the game, any ferocious beasts or monsters they encounter in the wild will inevitably be attacked.
But now, the taunting is gone.
These beasts and monsters seemed to regard "Chen Yun" controlled by Chen Ba as their own kind. Although beasts of the same kind would kill each other, the golden eagle BOSS was powerful enough to deter the beasts, so it would not be attacked.
He checked the bottom floor and found out.
After the protagonist Chen Yun evolved into a golden eagle BOSS, the character "Chen Yun" did not disappear out of thin air, but replaced the golden eagle BOSS template in the game plot.
"Global Evolution" is a stand-alone game.
As we all know, although today's stand-alone games have the title of stand-alone, they are basically connected to the Internet throughout the entire process and need to be connected to the server in order to play normally.
Therefore, the data of Pan Yang after he evolved into the plot BOSS is also backed up on the server.
During this process, when another player advances the plot and is about to face the golden eagle BOSS, a conflict will occur with the server when the code is called.
Why is there a conflict?
Because on the server side, the cloud archive backup has the data information of the golden eagle BOSS transformed by Pan Yang, while other players' clients do not have this kind of data.
If the data on the server and client sides conflict and do not match, then according to the game logic, the saved data will be overwritten, with the server side being the main focus.
The game will also undergo file repairs!
"Because there is a conflict between the client and the server, the system will determine that the player has tampered with or replaced the client file, and will automatically perform an online repair."
Xiao Lu explained: "During the process of repairing the file, the Golden Eagle BOSS information of other players' clients was inexplicably replaced with Pan Yang's character data."
In fact, Xiao Lu was also confused.
How did Brother Ba write his code? Why did such an outrageous scene happen where all players were affected by one person's bug? Chen Ba: "..."
He knew what Xiao Lu was wondering about. In fact, he already knew the answer, but even though he knew it, there was nothing he could do about it!
Damn, he knew that the Tiehanhan system had bad intentions.
He took all possible precautions, but still failed to prevent it. If he had known that the optimized code of Tiehanhan's system could spread like a virus to all players, he should not have optimized the code.
The problem has been found.
The cause of the incident was simple. Pan Yang did find a game bug.
This bug originates from the numerical superposition of the evolution mechanism. The concentration of a single bloodline power can reach up to 5%. What about 20 bloodline powers?
Even primary school students can do this question.
But in the game, there is no such thing as 100% alien blood power, and no related game mechanism has been designed for it.
Therefore, when Pan Yang used more than 20 kinds of bloodline power to stack the values to 100%, a bug appeared in the evolution mechanism.
"The game mechanism we designed for players is definitely to serve the players. And the protagonist Chen Yun controlled by the player is a real human being."
"Pan Yang was identified as a vicious beast because of a bug, so his evolution path became various game bosses..."
At this point, Chen Ba took a breath.
Be good!
Who could have imagined this? When the evolution mechanism had a bug and the evolution degree was stuck and could not evolve, he and Xiao Lu conducted countless tests around this system.
What about ordering fried rice in a bar, shitting in a bar, plowing the land in a bar...
This test is already very comprehensive! But who would have thought that this bar where you can order fried rice, take a shit, and drive a tractor to plow the land would have the problem of "customers are not human"?
All I can say is that Chen Ba tried his best.
He took great pains to open a bar, and in order to cope with various challenges and deal with the strange requests of various guests, he made the bar perfect.
As a result, after the bar opened, a dog-headed man came to the bar and did not order fried rice or drive an excavator, but only wanted a glass of whiskey...
Pan Yang was the first to discover and trigger this bug. As a result, because the game "Global Evolution" was fully connected to the Internet and provided cloud archiving services, the data was uploaded to the server.
OK, here comes the combo! As we all know, the codes written by Tiehanhan system are far ahead of their peers, and even aliens can't understand them.
Since it is a high-end code, it is normal for it to have some features that only high-end code has, right? "So, Pan Yang infected all the players by himself? His character file replaced the client files of all the players?"
“That’s right!”
Chen Ba explained: "In a sense, the golden eagle boss that the other hundreds of thousands of players will encounter now or in the future is him."
Where is the original Golden Eagle BOSS? The files have all been replaced, so where is the Golden Eagle BOSS? There is only Pan Yang here, just tell me if you want it or not! "What happens if he goes offline and other players can't find the BOSS?" Xiao Lu asked.
"He has gone offline and is disconnected from the server. Although other players' clients have backed up their character information and data, they don't have permission to access them..."
Chen Ba covered his face, thinking that this was a really wonderful relationship.
Pan Yang encountered a bug, which not only turned his game character into a golden eagle BOSS, but also passively replaced the game files of other players.
He logged off, because these game files, to put it bluntly, are actually Pan Yang's personal game privacy data, which are encrypted and require a logged-in account to access.
It is impossible for other players to log into Pan Yang's Tianba account, so naturally they have no authority to access related encrypted files and data.
So……
When this guy is online, players can use the server to connect to the internet and defeat the golden eagle BOSS to complete the story mission.
As soon as he went offline, the client file was missing data related to the Golden Eagle BOSS, and players could only stay where they were and wait for him to come online before continuing the story.
"in other words!"
"If he is determined not to play the game, then among the hundreds of thousands of players, except for those who have already passed the first chapter of the main quest, the rest will be stuck and will not be able to pass the first chapter of the main quest."
As Chen Ba was talking, he found himself living in Bengbu.
What kind of thing is this?
With his own efforts, he caused hundreds of thousands of players to be stuck and unable to advance the plot. This kind of thing is quite explosive in the entire gaming industry.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry and get him online!"
When Xiao Lu heard this, he urged anxiously, "So many players haven't finished the story yet, how can he rest? Hurry up and get beaten. As long as there are still people who haven't finished the first chapter of the main storyline, he can't sleep!"
“That makes sense!”
Chen Ba thought so too.
Although this bug is serious and has affected a large number of players, there is now a remedy.
That is to let Pan Yang go online and serve everyone as soon as possible, and try to make everyone pass the first chapter of the main line smoothly.
…
"Brother Ba, are you a human?"
He was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly woken up by a phone call from Brother Ba, asking him to go online and get beaten so as not to delay other players from progressing through the story. Pan Yang's head was buzzing.
This is outrageous!
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Who among my family members understands?
Playing a game costs half of your life. When Pan Yang thought about having to endure the beatings from hundreds of thousands of players, he felt like crying but had no tears.
Hundreds of thousands of players!
Even if one person beats him for five minutes, and he is beaten continuously for 24 hours a day, it will take a year.
Who can stand this? Pan Yang wanted to curse and call Brother Ba a jerk. He didn't solve the bug in his game, but let him take the blame. Is this something a human can come up with? "Hey, don't be impatient!"
"You just hold on for a day or two. We are discussing a solution. You will be free soon."
Brother Ba's answer made Pan Yang feel a little relieved.
Compared to a year, I can still hold on for a day or two. If it doesn't work, I can just leave the game alone and let him sleep! Two days later.
During this period, Pan Yang played the role of the Golden Eagle BOSS in the game and successfully received thousands of players, but there were still many people queuing up behind him waiting to defeat the BOSS and complete the plot.
The good news is that Brother Ba is out!
After two days and one night of hard work, Brother Ba finally came up with a solution and released a new game patch file package.
“Okay, okay!”
Pan Yang, who had been beaten for two days, was even more excited when he saw the game update announcement than seeing that he had won the lottery.
He couldn't wait to update the game and put an end to this inhumane torture game.
But when he finished updating the game, he realized that he had overthought.
The solution that Brother Ba came up with after two days and one night was to increase the explosion rate of bloodline power? Let more players join the ranks of "suffering".
"ah?"
I really like what the players of "Global Evolution" said: Ah?
There are not enough bosses to fight at the level, and the number of people waiting in line exceeds 100,000. What should we do if everyone can't pass the plot? It's simple!
By secretly changing the drop rate of blood power, more players can evolve into game bosses, and this problem will be solved.
What? Why not just fix the game bug, deprive Pan Yang of his plot boss status, and restore his human status to him, so that he can be human again?
GameBugs: "This is not a bug. The fact that players can play as the game boss is a hidden mechanism we carefully designed. We just didn't expect it to be discovered so quickly..."
Just blow as much as you can!
Pan Yang absolutely did not believe Brother Ba's statement. After all, any player who had been in the Tianba community knew what kind of person Brother Ba was.
But one thing must be admitted.
The change made by Brother Ba really relieved a lot of pressure for Pan Yang.
Before the game was updated, Pan Yang spent five full days playing the game before he was able to trigger the evolution bug and transform from a human into a ferocious beast boss.
But after the game was updated, in less than a morning, dozens of players turned into various ferocious beast bosses in the game, including the golden eagle boss.
The golden eagle BOSS evolved by these players has the same effect as Pan Yang. It is also the kind of BOSS that can be uploaded to the server and then called up and interacted with by other players.
Pan Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
As the boss guarding the first chapter of the main storyline of "Global Evolution", the importance of the Golden Eagle BOSS is self-evident.
It can be said that every player has to defeat this BOSS once in order to push the main storyline forward.
Before, he was the only one there, and faced with the needs of hundreds of thousands of players, he was truly powerless and overwhelmed.
But now, things are different.
There are dozens of players, many of whom have evolved into golden eagle bosses like him.
With so many players playing the role of the BOSS guarding the level, it is definitely enough. There will be no situation where players search the entire map but cannot find the mission target.
What’s even more surprising is that…
The boss guarding the second chapter of the main storyline was also replaced by a player. At this rate, it is estimated that in a few days, all the bosses in the storyline of "Global Evolution" will be replaced by players.
This is getting interesting!
Before, it was just a simple fight against the AI. The difficulty of the monsters was constant. They would not suddenly become stronger or weaker. Players could always pass the level by dying a few times.
But now, these BOSSes are no longer robots, they are all living players!
It would be okay if you met a newbie, but this BOSS is a piece of cake. You can beat it with your eyes closed and just pressing the keyboard.
But if you meet a master who knows how to play, it will be miserable...
Tianba Community already has videos.
There is a high-level player who has evolved into the same golden eagle BOSS as Pan Yang. As the gatekeeper, he has defeated 734 players who came to challenge him.
Don’t doubt…
The attributes of the BOSS in the level itself are very explosive. Not only are the skills powerful, but the damage is also very high. Players will lose a lot of blood if they just touch it.
This kind of powerful template, when entrusted to a robot to play against, people will naturally feel that it is okay. This BOSS is just so-so. Just look at me killing it without any damage.
But if you entrust the task to a high-level player who is already very skilled in operation, do you know how much of a blow it will be to ordinary players?
"I don't want to play anymore, give me my money back!"
"Oh my god, why is this great god guarding the level today? I got beaten by him twenty times, a full twenty times..."
"After playing Global Evolution, I finally understood what a true soul-like game is! The difficulty of this boss is so high that Dark Souls is even more embarrassing!"
"Nonsense, can other soul-like games have such a shameless boss? A dignified boss is playing Qin Wang around the pillar with me, do you still have any shame?"
"Speed through the BOSS without taking any damage? That's hilarious! It's obviously a player who speed-cleared the BOSS without taking any damage!"
