  《Alpha0.9 Developer Diary》

Xiaoqi: "Hello everyone, I'm the dearest assistant of your dearest planner, Aguang! Because Laundromat's behavior of taking the lead in working overtime caused the collective anger of the development department, planning department, and art department, we decided to He put it in a starfish can and sold it to the mutant tribe... Anyway, we finally got the Alpha 0.9 version, and this update is of great significance. Since Aguang is still working overtime, this time I entrusted me to chat with you. The design ideas and gameplay of the new version!"

   "First of all, the biggest change in the Alpha0.9 version compared to the 0.8 version is that we have added a career system and skill proficiency settings to "Wasteland Online"."

"To be honest, we were very hesitant when we made this decision. After all, what we initially wanted to do was a sandbox game with freedom and virtual community as the selling point, and the main focus on leisure and entertainment, even without a character interface. The kind that was intended to be developed, the notion of a career seemed to run counter to that."

"However, with the continuous enrichment of game content and the increasing participation of players in open world affairs, our NPCs are gradually falling into a dilemma - namely, what can be done is limited, and how can the limited opportunity to distribute to those who need it more.”

"Zhang San likes fishing and Li Si likes farming. We have a **** and a fishing rod in our hands. Ideally, we would give Zhang San the fishing rod and Li Si the hoe. But now the number of players has risen to 800. It would be unfair to decide who will do the task in an authorized way, so we need to formulate a standard!"

   "And the occupation system and skill proficiency are born for this!"

"Take logging as an example, when a player cuts a tree with a VM or completes a logging task, the proficiency of logging skills will be automatically accumulated, and the skill level will be increased when the upper limit is reached. The minimum level is 0, and the maximum level is 10. This level Regardless of the level of the gene sequence, the level of each skill is calculated independently. Although the increase in the skill level will not bring you an intuitive work efficiency bonus, it can unlock more related and more profitable skills for you. quests, and even unlock exclusive titles - like Ace Lumberjack or Forest Destroyer!"

"In addition to logging, skills that can improve proficiency include firearms, throwing, archery, fighting, medical treatment, scavenging, slaughtering, cooking, construction, tailoring, metallurgy, manufacturing, planting, mining, etc... More than 40 kinds, more For details, please explore by yourself!"

   "Compared to the skill proficiency system, the 'professional system' is more like a status symbol or title."

"For example, after the warehouse manager 'Guo Niu' takes office as a scavenger, the accumulation of proficiency in scavenging skills will be faster, and he will be entrusted with important tasks in the scavenging work. Become a 'Scavenger Master' or even a 'Trash King'!"

   "You can take a job as a farmer or a butcher at the granary manager 'Guo Ma', unlock more seeds or receive more slaughter orders."

"In addition, some occupations have certain skill proficiency thresholds. For example, if you want to become a hunter, hunting is a more worthy target, you need to meet any one of the three skills of firearms, throwing, and archery to reach level 3. Or pay 10 silver coins to start the hunting skill assessment."

   "Similar occupations include soldiers, architects, prospectors, etc. In the future, mercenary, adventurer, engineer and other occupations will be opened. For more information, please pay attention to the official website!"

"Rookie players can only register one occupation, and as the status level increases, the occupations that can be registered will also increase. For example, a citizen can register two occupations, a medium citizen can register three, and so on. Registered occupations can be cancelled at any time. , but the achievements and titles related to this profession will also be cleared, so please choose carefully!"

   "In addition, we will solve the camera problem in the next version, allowing players to record beautiful moments with the lens."

   "If the next version does not solve it, the next version must be!"

  …

  In less than a minute after the update announcement and development log were issued, hundreds of comments were refreshed at the speed of light.

   It’s just that the reason why the players’ emotions are high is not because of the newly launched career system.

   It can even be said that it has nothing to do with the content of this major update.

   Shadow Moon Residual Wind: "White Hair! It's White Hair! White Hair Controls Ecstasy! (Broken Voice

   This child is really terrifying: "It's too astringent, too astringent!"

  Irena: "Isn't anyone calling my wife? Then I'll call you. (Funny

  Quit Smoking: "Planning Dad's Awesome! (Broken Voice

   tail: "prprpr"

  Siss: "Ah! This man! No, this tail!"

  The fleeing mole rat in the canyon: "Tsk tsk, you LSPs, no one cares about the career system and skill proficiency of this update? Such an important matter, what's the topic! Why do you all go to an NPC! (Knock on the table

   Fang Chang: "Sorry, this plan is too good. (nosebleed

  Ye Ten: "+1, Brother Mole gkd! (Funny

  The fleeing mole rat in the canyon: "Gan! How come you, Fang Chang, a guy with big eyebrows and big eyes, has turned his back!"

   The post was full of excitement.

The same goes for forums outside of    posts.

The official website of    has been completely overwhelmed by these cloud players, sand sculpture netizens and entertainers.

  Especially in the Alpha0.9 version this time, the number of players has been raised from 500 to 800!

   This time, 300 test places were released all at once, which excited all the little cute newbies who had left Africa and joined the European Union.

  What is the concept of more than 200 acceptance speeches on the forum at the same time?

   Not to mention there are tens of thousands of lemons and tens of thousands of melons.

When    is the most exaggerated, the post is almost swiped at a speed of 5 meters per second, and the post just sent is like a stone thrown into the river, sinking directly to the second page.

   Refreshed it again, but I couldn't find it at all.

   The server was not crowded and paralyzed. It seems that this operator is also making a lot of money!

   After reading the announcement, Lao Bai glanced at the number of reservations.

   Good guy, it was 23333 a few minutes ago, and in a blink of an eye, it jumped to 27777 and went straight to the 30,000 mark!

   Are these people doing the questions so fast? !

  …

   Cow and Horse Club Group.

  No one is discussing the new version on the official website, everyone can only go to their respective small groups to discuss.

  WC is really full of mosquitoes: "Comfortable! My contribution is just enough for 10,000 points, and I can directly fly to the master! (screaming teeth

   Gale: "I'm 12,000. Sure enough, it's useful to make contributions."

  Tomato scrambled eggs: "Hey, I'm still short of 2000, how did you brush it? Why so fast!"

  Quitting: "That's right! I just arrived as a citizen, you liver emperors are too exaggerated! QAQ"

  Ye Shi: "It's great, I can buy land again! (funny

   Citizenship requires 2000 Contribution points, which is almost five times as high as Medium Citizen.

   However, this does not mean that it is five times more difficult to upgrade from a citizen to a medium citizen. After all, as the level increases, the income of the task also increases simultaneously.

If you are serious, you will be able to arrive in about a month. If you are casual, it will be enough for two or three months. There are 120 points in the daily life guarantee. The level has gone up, and the contribution is still very fast.

  For example, the group owner and dog managers have been brushing the books of the greenhouse relics recently. The silver coins and contribution income are basically four digits, and the contribution will be slightly higher. The average single-day income can be up to 600 tribute, and if it is low, it can be around 400 tribute.

  Some professional players in life are similar, such as Mosquito. The warehouse has long-term orders for making nitrocellulose, and this demand has been strong for a long time.

  Especially after the regional prestige system was updated in version 0.8, the material donation function was opened, and there was another way for life players to contribute.

   As long as you donate strategic materials, you can not only get the regional prestige of the "capital", but also get some common contribution points of the faction!

   10,000 contribution points are not a lot.

The topic of    soon changed to the newly added occupation system and skill proficiency system.

   Fang Chang: "I just played the game, and my archery skill proficiency is actually 4."

  Old Bai: "It seems that the previous proficiency is also counted."

   Fang Chang: "Accurately speaking, it should be the proficiency accumulated after getting the VM. You can make a bold guess, maybe our current proficiency level is designed based on those behavioral data."

  Ye Ten: "The administrator has collected our personal information through the VM. (Funny

   Gufeng: "Speaking of Fang Chang, what occupation are you planning to take?"

   Fang Chang: "A medium citizen can bring three. In my opinion, tentatively, hunters, soldiers, and prospectors."

   Gale: "Without scavengers?"

Fang Chang: "There aren't enough grids, so there's no way. Hunters must bring them. If you want to get money artifact, you must also bring them for the bonus of hunting income. Not to mention the soldiers. It is probably the son of the version. It's not a bit of bone that has been updated recently. Tribes? There is definitely a chance to use it. Do prospectors still need to talk about it? The ruins of the ecological laboratory are estimated to be a high-yield capital."

   Quit smoking: "Big guy! What career should a newcomer bring? QAQ"

Fang Chang: "You are a physique type. If you are a power type, you can hire a lumberjack first and brush up your strength attributes. If your physique and perception are concerned, you should be a scavenger. This profession is a panacea. If you become a citizen, you can bring a hunter with you. Or soldier, depending on how you plan to play this version."

  Ye Shi: "It's always a **** to pick up trash! I don't care, I'm going to pick up trash anyway. (Funny

  Trash Level 99: "Who is calling me???"

  Ye Shi: "Ah! You are still in the group."

   Picking up trash, level 99: "Hey! Look, are you talking about people?"

   Since the last battle, this lizard dude has been "hibernating" and hasn't been bubbling in the group recently.

   It's been a long time since I hadn't seen him, but Ye Shi actually felt a kind of cordial feeling.

   Gale: "By the way, did you go to the new map?"

   Fang Chang: "I'm planning to go, do you want to go together?"

   Gale: "Go!"

  Old Bai: "Huh? Are you not going to class for a while?"

   Gufeng: "There is no class this morning, I can play until 12 o'clock offline."

  Ye Shi: "It's a coincidence, I have no class today, I can reward myself for the whole day. (Funny

  Old Bai: "You kid, take it easy, don't play games every day, don't talk about a girlfriend in college, go to the society and be careful to be deceived."

  Ye Shi: "Hehe, what to talk about, is it not good for dry rice or not for games? The three-dimensional is a Shete, you go and roll it, I have enough fish. (Funny

   Gufeng: "This sentence is enough for you to sentence."

Ye Shi: "Speaking of you, don't keep talking about me. When I go to the cafeteria, I occasionally meet a school girl who asks me for WeChat, what do you think? People who are almost 30, play games online on time every day, self-discipline is not sexual Life, is it appropriate to lie flat like this?"

   Fang Chang: "Tsk, kick this man."

  Wind: "+1, and it's not that I don't want to, it's just boring and boring."

  Old Bai: "I'll post a poll."

   [Group owner initiates a vote: whether to kick the shit. 1. Yes, 2. Agree]

  Ye Shi: "Hey! What about friendship? Also, why are both options kicking me!"

   Picking up trash, level 99: "Hahahaha, who wants you to be so hateful, that's it!"

   We are all old friends, so if we are joking, we can't really kick.

   The group owner has something to do during the day, so he didn't go online.

   Fang Chang, Gu Feng, Ye Shi ate breakfast, made an appointment to put on his helmet again, and quickly returned to the line.

  I thought that there would be a lot of people lining up in front of the elevator tower on the B2 floor, but when they came to the lobby, they found that there were not as many people as they thought.

   Take a closer look, my dear, a safe passage has been updated next to the elevator tower!

   Was this a wall before?

   It seems that the operator is also aware of the lack of elevator capacity in the shelter.

   With the opening of the B3 floor, players who do not want to wait for the elevator can now use the stairs to move between the opened floors.

   It would be great if you could upgrade the elevator outside!

   Come to the B3 floor.

   Fang Chang looked around, touched his chin and thought for a moment before giving his own evaluation.

   "The layout here looks similar to the B2 floor."

   Ye Shi also said.

   "It can't be said to be very similar, it's almost exactly the same."

   The gust of wind looked at the wall to the side, where a plan structure was reflected.

"It's still a little bit different. You look at the corridor between Area A and Area B. At the end of the corridor in Area B2 is a locked warehouse. In the same location on the B3 floor, the space is obviously several times larger. There are a few more areas to explore.”

   "Well, I noticed it just now," Fang Chang nodded, "It seems that the core area of ​​the new floor is there... Anyway, let's go and take a look."

   said, Fang Chang walked ahead and led the two of them to explore the direction of the corridor.

   After passing through Area A and Area B, the first thing you pass by is a white room.

   Judging from the operating table-like reclining chair in the center of the room, as well as the layout and decoration of the room, it seems to be an infirmary or something similar.

   When the three stood at the door, there was already a female player with short hair and a high ponytail inside.

   looked around, Sisi said in surprise.

   "It's actually an infirmary, and it still feels like a medical laboratory... By the way, can't the door inside be opened?"

  Tail: "Huh? How does Sisi know so much? Is it because of frequent visits?"

  Siss slanted his tail: "That's right, but I'm here to see a doctor."

  Although it is a pathology department with a relatively low sense of presence, it is exposed to more formalin than living people every day, but it can still be regarded as medical treatment, right?

  Tail: "Doctor! I'm sick, give me Kangkang!"

  Siss stretched out his hands listlessly and made a ghostly catching action.

   "I'm looking at the brain, I have to cut it open to see it."

  Tail: "!!!∑(Дノ)ノ"

  Siss: "Hey, how did you send emojis in the game?"

   Looking at the two people behind the glass wall, the three gentlemen were silent for a while, and unanimously decided to leave them alone.

   Fang Chang: "Let's visit another place."

  Ye Ten: "Agree."

   Gu Feng did not speak, but nodded.

   The three continued to move forward, and then they passed by a planting area with a real sci-fi feeling.

  There is not a single grain of soil in the entire planting area, only the planting units with the same shape as the fish tank - according to the settings on the official website, it seems to be this name.

   Gu Feng glanced at the VM, and was surprised to find that the name of each facility and the introduction of facility functions were updated on the minimap.

   It seems that the Alpha0.9 version update is far from just the career system, and also secretly changed some in-game settings.

good.

   Finally, there is no need to rely on brain supplements!

   "From the map on the VM, this seems to be a planting area... The theoretical planting area is 50 mu."

   "Is there 50 acres here?"

   "There are 50 three-dimensional planting units with the same shelves. I guess it means that each three-dimensional planting unit is equivalent to one mu of land."

   In other words, there are already greenhouse ruins. Is there still a need for such facilities?

   Or, is there a seed bank here for seeds from pre-war crops?

   Fang Chang pondered in his heart.

  Not far away, Makabazi was holding the three-dimensional planting unit, and his words were incoherent, and he didn't know what to say in the babble.

   And the one standing next to him seemed to be a fisherman who "don't talk shit."

   "Fuck off! You can never touch my land!"

   "Nowhere, this is obviously a fish tank!"

   "Your fish tank looks like this!?"

  “%￥#@!”

   The three exchanged glances, and decided not to disturb them, and continued to walk forward.

   Further ahead, is a small room with a radioactive sign on the door.

   "This seems to be the power room?" Fang Chang said thoughtfully, comparing the text on the VM, "According to the information set on the official website, it should be the place to put the fusion reactor?"

  Ye Shi glanced around and muttered, "There seems to be nothing to see here, and the open area is very small... I thought I could see the inside of the reactor."

   Fang Chang: "After all, this kind of technology beyond reality in sci-fi games is not easy to make up. Generally, I will give you a bunch of models to make up your own mind."

The   reactors are not in this long and narrow room of less than 20 square meters. There is a thick wall and a closed alloy door in front of them.

There is a small window on the    alloy door, which can see the metal bracket behind the wall and the half outline of the suspected controllable fusion reactor.

   Gu Feng walked in, looked curiously close, reached out and gently pushed the door.

   However, the door seemed to be fixed to the space and did not move at all.

   Maybe this part was originally a texture?

   Or the operator hasn't figured out how to make it up, or doesn't plan to waste time on irrelevant details.

   Seeing no response no matter how hard he tried, Gu Feng retracted his hand and said with a look of regret.

"Pity."

  Although he doesn't think operators can have any bright ideas, it is always curious when it comes to professional-related fields.

   If only I could see what it looks like.

  …

  While the players were exploring the new content of version 0.9, Chu Guang, the manager of the entire shelter, was standing in the last area of ​​the "function area" on the B3 floor - there is no warehouse open to players for the time being.

   There are two large and small "black boxes" in the warehouse.

  【Item: Black Box】

  【Number: NO.11】

  【Function: Produce vital signs monitor】

  【Instructions for use: put it in the atmospheric environment, turn on the power supply, input 3L water, 300g aluminum, 200g iron, 100g copper, 50g nickel…】

  【Available: Vital Signs Monitor, Organic/Inorganic Waste. 】

  ——

  【Item: Black Box】

  【Number: NO.X】

  [Function: Dormant cabin for clones]

  【Instructions for use: put it in the atmospheric environment, turn on the power supply, input 100L water, 50KG aluminum, 30KG iron, 5KG copper, 100g nickel, 8g gold... 】

  【Available: Dormant cabin for clones, organic/inorganic waste. 】

The    small black box is only the size of a normal suitcase, similar to the one he found in Vault 117.

   And the other big one is a car rather than a box.

   At the same time, a light blue window appeared in front of Chu Guang - it was the data card projected by the manager's system into his field of vision.

   Walking to the box numbered NO.X, Chu Guang found an operation instruction with simple strokes in a cover the size of a palm, which even the illiterate could understand.

However……

   The above does not explain what this thing is used for.

   read the manual in his hand over and over twice, a strange expression appeared on Chu Guang's face.

   At this time, Xia Yan, who came over from the side, muttered and said it for him, what he wanted to say but didn't say.

   "Dormant cabin for clones?"

   "Hey, what is this thing for?"

Good news, Zhang Shuo can redeem the prize. Before October 31, 2021, Zhang Shuo with more than 30 likes can poke the post of Qishen, the operator of the book review area, "Post Zhang Shuo and win the recommended work" to participate.
