Chapter 364 The First Downtime Update!
"Ding"
Accompanied by a familiar prompt, the moment it sounded over Blue Star, all the players, no matter what they were doing, put down what they were doing, and looked seriously at the long pop-up window that popped up in front of them.
So many months have passed.
The Terran players on Blue Star have already reached a consensus, that is, before the new month is approaching, no one sleeps at night, and everyone is patiently waiting for the arrival of the new rules.
According to the old rules, when new rules come, it often means that new activities start.
"Ding!"
The sudden prompt sound touched everyone's minds!
"Game Update Announcement!"
"The new version of Bluestar 4.7 will be shut down for update at 00:00 am on November 1st. The main content and adjustments of this update are as follows."
"1. Fixed some bugs, this time the bugs are fixed as follows
*Someone broke through the restriction outside the blue star's atmosphere through some props, escaped from the blue star, and has recaptured it, and fixed the bug. *
*Because there may be some problems in the program code, it has fixed the bug that as long as you squat on the edge of some square steps and keep moving back and forth, left and right, you can get stuck in the stone and even walk freely underground. *
*Fixed the bug that some players found that the mall can be purchased for 0 yuan. The bug has been fixed, and all sold items will be recovered. If the item disappears, the player needs to compensate for the original price. *
*$%##%$ # %% # *”
"2. Added the "Fighting Beast Chess" gameplay, and a resident gameplay will be added starting from November.
Fighting Beast Chess has a total of chess pieces such as elephant, lion, tiger, leopard, dog, wolf, cat and mouse.
They belong to mutual restraint relationship, for example, an elephant can eat a lion, a lion can eat a tiger, but a mouse can eat an elephant, etc.
In this gameplay, players will draw a random chess piece as their identity, and can challenge any player they see. If the opponent’s identity is lower than their own, they will get 100 points, otherwise, 100 points will be deducted. coupon.
Each player can accept an unlimited number of challenges per day, but can only take the initiative to initiate a challenge.
And after a challenge is over, both parties will know each other's identity. "
"3: Added the August rules "no smoking" and "reject thank you".
"No Smoking": All players are not allowed to smoke. As an adult, you should pay attention to your own health, at least not to cause the health of those around you to be forced to be affected by your second-hand smoke.
Violation once, 1000 coupons will be deducted, and will not be superimposed.
"Refused to thank you": We should face this world a little more rudely. Politeness is not a must. All players will not be allowed to say thank you this month.
Violation once, 1000 coupons will be deducted, and will not be superimposed.
ps: Thank you is defined as the word 'thank you', other substitute words such as thank you will not trigger this rule.
The November rule lasts for one month and expires at 00:00 on December 1st. "
"Xuehai project team, I wish all players a happy game in version 4.7."
"Ps: The next update notice, the project team decided to add the current month's rules about the element of "do whatever you want". Please look forward to it, all players."
"It seems that the content of this month's update seems to be quite simple."
The consumptive rabbit standing on the side looked at the panel protruding in front of him with his hands in his pockets and said casually: "Only 3 pieces of content have been updated, much less than the previous ones, and a dispensable gameplay of fighting beast chess has been added."
"It feels weird to play this game."
"As long as you launch a challenge, you can know the identity of each other's chess pieces, and then you only need to publicize the opponent's chess pieces, so that as long as players with higher identities than this person will all rush over, initiate a challenge to get 100 points for nothing."
"Isn't this too aimed at some unpopular players?"
"Fortunately, this identity is not mandatory, but you can freely choose whether you want to join this game. Otherwise, if Brother Yi's identity is exposed, many players who are older than Brother Yi will come to Brother Yi to collect wool. If you are plucked to death, you have to be annoyed to death."
"this one"
Jian Wuya on the side said hesitantly: "Actually, I don't think you need to think about this issue at all. Even if this identity is distributed to every player forcibly, there should be no players who would dare to come to Brother Yi to initiate challenge."
"Why? As long as Brother Yi's identity is exposed, it means that as long as he initiates a challenge, he will get 100 coupons for nothing."
"That's what I said, but it's not worthwhile to lose your life for 100 points, isn't it? After all, 100 points is still a bit insignificant in front of a life."
"Yes, you are right."
Tuberculosis nodded approvingly, then took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and threw it into his mouth. After taking a long breath, he looked at the lingering smoke in front of him in a trance.
"I don't know why, but this cigarette feels much better than usual."
"I always feel that there is a sense of dignity in the smoke."
In the new rules in November, all players are not allowed to smoke, and a fine of 1,000 points is fined for each violation. Naturally, Tuberculosis completely ignores this rule. A cigarette costs only 1,000 points, and he can afford it.
Even if you smoke 20 sticks a day, it's only 20,000 coupons.
Only 600,000 a month.
It's just a drizzle, it's not what it used to be now, they are not short of these hundreds of thousands of coupons, and the ear spoon in his pocket was bought with hundreds of thousands of coupons, so he doesn't care about these hundreds of thousands of coupons.
What's more, the only E-level prop in his backpack, as long as the "Star Map" platform is opened on Blue Star, tens of billions of coupons can be cashed in every minute, so he doesn't care about hundreds of thousands of coupons.
As for the other rule, it is even more useless to him.
"Thanks?"
Tuberculosis couldn't help grinning: "Do you think I'm the one saying thank you?"
"Ding, the detection player Tutu said 'thank you' twice, and 2000 points will be deducted."
"."
The Tutu who was grinning suddenly became expressionless and silent. After a while, he said hoarsely: "I lost your mother, this is also counted?!"
Jian Wuya, who was standing by the side, looked at the announcement thoughtfully: "But what I'm more curious about is how did those players discover these weird bugs? I'm really curious about what kind of bugs they used. How can you escape from Blue Star?"
"Although he was caught back in the end, this step is already very powerful."
"You can still find that you can buy it for 0 yuan in the mall. What kind of operation is this? The mall can still buy it for 0 yuan? What surprised me the most is that who would squat on a step, moving back and forth, left and right, trying to get stuck Go into the ground!"
"This is reality!"
"It's not the CF that can be driven even with PHS. Why would someone do this behavior in reality? What's even more puzzling is why this behavior is really successful? It really works ?!"
"What a mess this is!"
at this time--
Jian Wuya suddenly noticed that Brother Yi didn't speak from the beginning, but sat quietly on the spot with an extremely calm expression on his face, he was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help but took a step forward and spoke tentatively.
"Brother Yi is still worrying about that playboy's career?"
He naturally knew that Brother Yi was not in a good mood these days, the biggest reason was because of the profession of "playboy", which caused Brother Yi to receive some disgusting looks from players of the same sex from time to time.
Of course, those same-sex players should be more disgusted with themselves.
If you find it hard to imagine, you might as well substitute it. One day you walked on the street and saw a man passing by, and then suddenly felt a desire for this man in your heart.
This sudden feeling is enough to make me doubt my sexual orientation, instantly break my values for many years, and make me feel a suffocating nausea in my heart.
You know, even if you are gay, not every man likes it, but you just have feelings for some men of the same sex who meet their specific requirements.
And Chen Yi's profession can make all the same-sex and opposite-sex people who look at him, even a mosquito, have a strange feeling for Yi-ge.
This feeling is torture enough.
But... I have to say, looking at Brother Yi in the past few days, I really feel that his features have become more beautiful.
Jian Wuya couldn't help lowering his head, he didn't dare to look directly at Brother Yi, anything bad can happen these days, never think that the world you see is beyond ridiculous.
The limit is far from being reached.
"."
After Chen Yi was silent for a moment, he said softly: "Didn't you all notice the sentence in the third line?"
"Um?"
Jian Wuya was stunned for a moment, subconsciously looked at the announcement panel in front of him and said in a daze: "It's just an official language, is there any problem with this sentence?"
Chen Yi didn't explain too much, but repeated the sentence softly.
"The new version of Bluestar 4.7 will be shut down for update at 00:00 am on November 1st. The main content and adjustments of this update are as follows."
"etc!"
At this time, Tutu suddenly noticed that this sentence was unusual, and a shock flashed in the depths of his pupils, and he looked up at Chen Yi in disbelief: "The update will be shut down at 00:00 on November 1st? The update will be shut down??? What the hell is a downtime update?"
"Stop whose fucking machine?"
"Stop our plane?"
"How the hell can we still be shut down?!"
They have seen this sentence many times. They will have this sentence every time the version is updated. It is nothing special. A sudden downtime for an update.
Just confuse them.
Downtime?
What kind of shutdown method?
Jian Wuya, who had reacted, had a trace of fear in his eyes, and after a quick observation for the next four weeks, he murmured in shock: "But I feel that everything is normal now, and I don't feel any shutdown. Could it be that we can't feel the shutdown? ?”
"What exactly does downtime mean?"
"I don't know."
Chen Yi remained calm and silent for a long time before continuing: "I just asked Li Yi from Xingyuan, who is awesome, to help us find out. Li Yi told me that there has never been such a saying in the history of the promotion game that it was shut down for updates."
"I spent hundreds of thousands of coupons as a price to activate the B-level skill "Please Destiny". The Xuehai project team also told me that I don't know what the situation is. When they set the announcement, they will not stop updating , but it became an outage update when it was released. "
"This is also the first time I have seen this situation in the entire game."
"There has never been an update outage before."
"There are two possibilities. The first possibility is that there is a problem with the underlying code of the upgraded game, which leads to a bug of typos and omissions, causing the character "不" in the non-stop update to be lost."
"If this is the case, this bug should be fixed soon, and the shutdown update on the notification panel will be changed to non-stop update in ten minutes."
"But the Xuehai project team told me that this possibility is almost slim, because the underlying code of the upgraded game will not make such stupid mistakes."
"Then there is only the second possibility."
"It really allowed us to catch up. The first time the upgraded game was shut down for updates, it allowed us to catch up."
"Exactly what will happen is completely unknown."
"The Xuehai project team doesn't know what the situation is. They are frantically investigating the cause of this incident. No one knows what will happen next."
The words fell.
Tutu, who was happily discussing the rules of the month with Jian Wuya just now, suddenly lost the excitement on his face. He frowned for a long time and then said: "Only the game will be stopped for updates. Generally speaking, the game will be stopped for updates." Games tend to be heavily updated.”
"And take some time to sort out the mountain of code."
"The most important thing now is what is our role? Is it a player? Then when we go online again, will the props we have be lost? Is it an NPC? If it is an NPC, then will we have no chance to go online at all? , was it directly cleared as discarded data when it was more similar?"
The tuberculosis rabbit obviously looked a little anxious, while Jian Wuya and the tuberculosis rabbit on the side had the same expression. Everyone was full of fear of the unknown about this shutdown update.
Is a blessing or a curse
There’s no need to guess, this thing doesn’t look like it can bring blessings at first glance.
"Maybe we don't have to guess anymore."
Chen Yi stood on the seaside, took out a cigarette from his arms and brought it to his mouth. He lit it slowly and blew out the smoke. He looked at the ever-changing scenery on the horizon and whispered in a low voice: "If I'm not wrong, the whole Blue Star may have to suspend operations for a while, but there is no specific time."
Say it.
Tutu, Jian Wuya and others all followed Chen Yi's gaze. At this glance, several people's mouths slowly widened and they froze on the spot, looking a little at a loss for a moment.
All I can see is the horizon.
A huge white aperture enveloped them from the sky at an extremely fast speed. Everything touched by the white aperture would become pixelated and stay in place.
The waves that were originally three meters high suddenly stopped in mid-air, and the waves were filled with pixel-like squares. They looked like Minecraft and seemed a little extra unreal.
Including seagulls in mid-air, crabs struggling to climb up the beach.
Players who are still sitting on beach chairs reading the rules.
Even the air was still in mid-air and became pixelated.
The downtime update has begun.
As for Chen Yi and others, when they were shrouded in white light, they just didn't bother to curse angrily: "Fuck, the global time has stopped, this is a fucking shutdown for updates, please don't give me a person who can walk freely! "
"I'm really worried about this."
Chen Yi immediately hugged Jia Ye into his arms to prevent a player from being able to ignore this rule and walk freely in the world's static state. This was not something that would definitely happen.
Before the upgraded game comes.
He knew that there were quite a few movies with this theme, and it was said that there were quite a few viewers who liked to watch them.
But after being enveloped in white light and losing a moment, Chen Yi suddenly flashed an extremely terrifying possibility in his mind, and subconsciously reached out to cover his butt.
Dry!
His current occupation is a playboy, and his attractiveness to the same sex has been greatly improved!
He protected Jiaye, so he couldn't protect himself just in case!
Fuck, if someone dares to do something to him, he will definitely dig out the graves of the other party's ancestors who are more than eighteen generations old and soak them in copper water!
Immediately afterwards——
This white circle of light quickly jumped over Chen Yi and his party, and continued to fly towards the end of the sky. Everything it passed was still and became pixelated, including the player.
November 1st.
Blue Star is doing the first downtime update, and this version update will also be the first downtime update of the upgraded game.
