Chapter 364 The first downtime update!
"Ding"
Accompanied by a familiar reminder sound, the moment it sounded over Blue Star, all the players put down what they were doing for a while, 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 sound of the reminder 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 used some props to break through the restriction outside the atmosphere of the Blue Star, and escaped from the Blue Star. They have been recaptured and the bug has been fixed. *
*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 where 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.
Beast Chess has a total of chess pieces such as elephant, lion, tiger, leopard, dog, wolf, cat, and mouse.
There is a mutual restraint relationship between each other, 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 ends, both parties will know each other's identity. "
「3: Added 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 don't be forced to affect the health of those around you because of your second-hand smoke.
Violation once, 1000 points will be deducted, and will not be superimposed.
"Reject 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 points 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 midnight 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 rules of the month about the element of "doing whatever you want". Please look forward to it, all players."
"It seems that the content of this month's update is quite simple."
Standing aside, Kutu put his hands in his pockets and looked at the panel sticking out in front of him, 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."
"I think this gameplay is very strange."
"As long as you launch a challenge, you can know the identity of each other's chess pieces. 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 coupons for nothing."
"Is 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 at the side said hesitantly: "Actually, I don't think you need to think about this issue at all. Even if this identity is forcibly distributed to every player, 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."
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, only 1,000 points for a cigarette, and he can afford to smoke.
Even if you smoke 20 sticks a day, it’s only 20,000 points.
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 now, 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 realized in minutes, so why do you 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 who said 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 counts as well?!"
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 finally caught and brought back, 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 kind of mess is this!"
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.
"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 **** 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 passing man, and then suddenly felt a desire for this man in your heart.
You must know that not every man likes **** men, but they just have feelings for some men of the same **** who meet their specific requirements.
And Chen Yi's profession can make all the same-sex, opposite-sex, and even a mosquito who look at him 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 more beautiful.
Jian Wuya couldn't help lowering his head, he didn't dare to look directly at Brother Yi, anything can happen these days, never think that the world you see is beyond ridiculous.
The limit is far from being reached.
“.”
Chen Yi was silent for a while, and then said softly: "Have you not noticed 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 **** is a downtime update?"
"Stop whose **** machine?"
"Stop our plane?"
"How the **** 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.
directly confused 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 now I feel that everything is normal, and there is no feeling of any downtime. Could it be that we can't feel the downtime?" ?”
"What exactly does downtime mean?"
"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, and asked him 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 the first time I have seen this situation in the whole game."
"Before this, there has never been an incident of downtime updates."
"There are two possibilities. The first possibility is that there is a problem with the underlying code of the upgraded game, which leads to bugs such as typos, omissions and few characters, and the non-stop update before the word is lost."
"If this is the case, this bug should be fixed soon, and the downtime update on the bulletin board will be changed to non-downtime update after 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 have such a stupid mistake."
"Then there is only the second possibility."
"It really made us catch up. The first time the upgraded game stopped updating, it made us catch up."
"What will happen is completely unknown."
"The Xuehai project team doesn't know what's going on. They are frantically investigating the cause of this incident. No one knows what will happen after that."
The voice fell.
The consumptive rabbit who was still discussing the rules of the month with Jian Wuya enthusiastically just now suddenly disappeared, and he frowned for a long time before speaking: "Only the game will stop updating. Games tend to be extremely updated."
"And take some time to sort out the code that is like a mountain of shit."
"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? , and was directly cleared as obsolete data when it was more like it?"
Consumptive Rabbit obviously looked a little anxious, while Jian Wuya and Consumptive Rabbit at the side had the same expressions. Everyone was full of fear of the unknown for this downtime update.
Is a blessing or a curse
There is no need to guess, this thing does not look like it can bring blessings.
"Perhaps, we don't have to guess anymore."
Standing on the beach, Chen Yi took out a cigarette from his pocket and brought it to his mouth. He lit it slowly and exhaled lightly. He looked at the ever-changing scenery in the sky and whispered: "If you guessed correctly, the whole Blue Star may have to suspend for a while, but there is no specific time."
Say it.
Botu, Jian Wuya and the others followed Chen Yi's line of sight, their mouths grew slowly and they froze in place, looking a little at a loss for a while.
I can only see the horizon.
A huge white light circle enveloped them from the sky at an extremely fast speed, and everything touched by the white light circle would become pixelated and stay in place.
The originally three-meter-high waves suddenly stopped in mid-air, and the waves were filled with pixel-like squares. It looked like my world, and it seemed a little unreal.
Including seagulls in mid-air, crabs struggling to climb up the beach.
Players who are also sitting on beach chairs watching the rules.
Even the air is still in mid-air and becomes pixelated.
Downtime update started.
As for Chen Yi and the others, being enveloped in white light, they only had time to curse angrily: "Fuck, the global time is stopped, this is a **** shutdown update, don't give me a person who can walk freely!"
"I'm really worried about this."
Chen Yi hugged Jiaye in his arms for the first time to prevent a certain player from being able to ignore this rule and walk freely in a state of global static. This is not something that will definitely not happen.
Before the promotion game comes.
He already knew that there were quite a few movies of this kind, and it was said that quite a few viewers liked to watch them.
But at the moment when he was enveloped by white light, an extremely terrifying possibility suddenly flashed in Chen Yi's mind, and he subconsciously stretched out his hand to cover his butt.
Dry!
His current occupation is a playboy, and his attraction to the same **** has been greatly improved!
He protected Jiaye, so he couldn't protect himself just in case!
Fuck, if someone dares to attack him, he will dig out the ancestral graves of more than eighteen generations and soak them in copper water!
Immediately after—
The 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 undergoing the first downtime update, and this version update will also be the first downtime update of the upgraded game.
