Vol 2 Chapter 120: The hazards of gold fingers

Chapter 120 The Harm of Gold Fingers

Lin Feng can see the potential crisis of quasi-single-machine operation of online games. Can other online game companies not see it?

Of course not. There is never a shortage of smart people in this world. Naturally, some people can see the hidden crisis in this world. But they resolutely chose to do this. In addition to the company's limited funds and the helpless choice of too low profits to operate, it was more of a hatred of the "second world."

Why is the "Second World" after the legend has seized the absolute market share, a casual online game can also occupy so much market share, almost monopolizing the entire market. Although there are still several tower defense games launched by companies that hold up the banner of resistance to the "Second World" and avoid the emergence of the "Second World" dominating online games, these companies are always free of charge. The price to maintain the current situation.

Therefore, many online game companies unanimously chose to modify it as a "quasi-single-player game." Although it will be discovered by players sooner or later, they are not afraid. Originally, they had no profit, and even lost money to make calls. No matter how fierce the players were, it was none of their business. It is the "Second World" that is really affected, and Lin Feng is the one who took the helm.

Players are blind and impulsive. As long as they properly provocateurs at the time, the players will eventually vent all this scorned grievances to the "Second World", and then they can sit back and enjoy their achievements. Even if it messed up the casual online game market, they didn't care.

Barefoot people are not afraid to wear shoes-many online game companies have this mentality-since you make us unable to make money, we also make you unable to make money.

This idea is extremely dirty, this method is extremely despicable, but in this era of battlefields, intrigue and deceit, their approach is understandable.

But they are gambling with the integrity of an online game company. Of course, there will be too much trouble at that time, and these online game companies can reapply for a license and re-list under a different name. On the contrary, if the "Second World" crashes down during these crises, it will not be so easy to set up the "Second World" brand.

Don't talk about the "Four Heavenly Kings" at that time, I am afraid that the "Eight Heavenly Kings" will not be able to restore the credibility of the "Second World".

"Prepare for the rain?" Wu Zhaopu was taken aback.

"En, yes. We have to take precautions. Before the crisis breaks out, we will give players vaccinations in advance!" Lin Feng nodded and said, "I will immediately publish an official message to warn players not to use cheating tools such as cheats, otherwise we will After three warnings, the account will be permanently blocked."

"Gold finger?" Wu Zhaopu was taken aback. He rarely played games and didn't know what a gold finger was.

Cheat is a game modification tool. It was originally a modification tool for gameboy (gb) and nintendoduals (nds) series handheld game consoles produced by Nintendo (nintendo) company. With this tool, the content of the game can be modified, allowing players to quickly increase their money, power, level, and props. Wait!

Later, it spread to computer games and other platforms, and many players collectively referred to similar modification tools as "gold fingers."

Wu Zhaopu was surprised when he heard this. He couldn't believe that he needed to use modification tools in order to play a game. Would it still be fun to play? Why bother to play.

"Haha, Mr. Wu, this is the pleasure of playing the game for a long time. After you have played it for a long time, you will know that when you can't conquer a game many times, you can use the golden finger to modify the refreshing feeling of passing a level or defeating a strong enemy. The refreshing feeling is unparalleled. , But it will also greatly reduce the fun of the game." Lin Feng sighed.

"Does Lin Dong mean that there will also be players using this golden finger for Plants vs. Zombies?" After listening to Lin Feng's explanation, Wu Zhaopu knew the damage done by the golden finger to online games. It's like a player in the game suddenly has an artifact in his hand, and it's the kind of artifact that can sweep everything. Although the players who use "gold fingers" are cool, but it destroys the balance of the game, which is absolutely unfair to other players. At that time, if you use the "gold finger" to modify, then how fun this game can be.

"Hehe, not now. Because the game has been connected to the host computer, as soon as the client reacts abnormally, gm will immediately find the abnormality and terminate the player's game window." Lin Feng said this, his face was cold, "but if Changing it to a quasi-single-player game will surely prevail for a while. Huh, they are digging their own graves."

This is also the biggest crisis of quasi-single-player games. Without the real-time supervision of gm, it is impossible to put an end to the prevalence of cheats. Especially after Lin Feng launched nine levels to divert the players, the competition among players has become more and more popular. A game, after all, some people are good at it, some people are not good at it, but no one wants to be compared to others, but what if you are really inferior to others? Naturally, I thought of using "Gold Fingers". For the sake of face and honor, even money would be spared, and this directly stimulated the derivation of the "Gold Fingers" market.

Wu Zhaopu nodded secretly. Once the "goldfinger" prevailed, the game system would completely collapse. I am afraid that 100 rounds can pass 1000 rounds. Thinking of that scene, Wu Zhaopu felt terrified. At that time, the loss will not be popularity. I am afraid that even a company's creditworthiness will be completely lost. And I am afraid that it is not a certain company that is implicated, but the entire online game market.

Thinking of this, Wu Zhaopu’s face is even more worried. The "Second World" is now the overlord of the domestic online game industry. No matter what happens, the "Second World" is the first to bear the brunt, even if everything has nothing to do with the "Second World". The same will be implicated.

"I want to go back by the wind, and I fear Qiong Lou Yuyu, the heights are too cold." ——This is Su Shi's tune song, but it can describe the current "Second World" situation.

Lin Feng witnessed Wu Zhaopu's worries, and he knew his worries. But for this, Lin Feng was also very helpless. This time, many online game companies broke the boat and dug their graves, and Lin Feng was helpless.

"Don't worry too much, let's take one step at a time, we can only act by chance!" Lin Feng said comfortingly.

"En." Wu Zhaopu knew that it could only be so now. Right now, the "Second World" cannot be changed at all. The so-called "Second World" affects the whole body. With the current status and reputation of the "Second World", I would never dare to act rashly.

Of course, this is mainly because the tower defense games like Plants vs. Zombies are now too popular. Faced with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of players, no one can guarantee how the players will react by that time, and no one knows that it will eventually develop. At what point, one can only watch the changes and act by chance.

"By the way, after half an hour, all servers will be disconnected every hour in turn." Lin Feng suddenly shouted to Wu Zhaopu who was about to leave.

Wu Zhaopu was taken aback, not understanding what it meant.

"Hehe, I just hope players understand that our Plants vs. Zombies is an absolute online game. Once disconnected, it will not be able to play." Lin Feng smiled.

Wu Zhaopu aftertastes for a moment, then understands immediately and laughs. This method is good, and it can at least minimize the involvement and harm in the impending crisis.

Crisis is also an opportunity, and perhaps this is also an opportunity for the "Second World" to take off again! ——Wu Zhaopu thought to himself.

Half an hour later, everyone who was struggling to conquer the second hurdle of Plants vs. Zombies suddenly went dark and a few large characters popped out.

"Sorry, your network is disconnected. Please wait a few minutes. We are contacting the host." Three cute girls came out, looking at the many players in front of the screen with their pitiful and innocent eyes open. The game player who originally wanted to scold his mother because of interrupting them was suddenly unable to swear.

"So cute!" everyone exclaimed.

The three q version girls are either Li Zhiyou, Lin Zhiyou and Huang Meixi. The q version makes the three particularly cute. However, the characteristics of the three girls are still maintained: the pure and lovely Li Zhiyou, the **** and enchanting Lin Zhihui, and the melancholy and noble Huang Meixi.

The picture on the screen ticked and ticked over time. The three girls moved over the table and chairs. Lin Zhihui started cleaning, Huang Meixi didn’t know what was painted on the table, and Li Zhiyou ran to the kitchen, busy cooking. The three girls are busy with each other, but they outline a warm family scene.

"Hello, the network has been reconnected, you can continue the game, and I hope that I will forgive you for any interruptions!" The screen lit up, and a few lines of large characters appeared.

For some reason, everyone felt a little regretful. They wanted to know what the three goddesses did afterwards. At this moment, the screen went dark again.

The three girls have finished everything. Lin Zhihui was holding the broom and spitting out his tongue, dripping with sweat, his face was reddish, and he smiled at the people in front of the screen. Li Zhiyou was holding a plate of steaming food, showing a gesture of inviting you to taste it; and Huang Meixi turned over the drawing board that had been painting on the table just now.

There is a painting above: in the painting, in a field, butterflies are flying. A girl is cleaning, a girl is busy cooking, and another girl is busy serving tea and pouring water, and in the middle of the screen is a monitor, in front of which sits a man who can’t see his face, enjoying the three girls contentedly. Service, and the computer screen in front of the man displayed a line of words:

"Second World, look forward to your support forever!"

Wow! Everyone sighed, and the man inside was so happy that the three goddesses surrounded him. The wolves howled for a while, but they began to yy in their hearts, thinking that the boy in the painting was themselves.

Woo~~~, we must support the second world, and always support the second world! ——Everyone crowed in unison.

Afterwards, although the Internet was restored, everyone's enthusiasm for the game declined slightly, and their minds were full of the scene in the painting just now, and they imagined that they could one day become the boy in the painting.

"Oh~~~, no~~~, I have 99 rounds, my fourth level!" Suddenly there was a miserable cry.

Everyone hurriedly gathered their minds and began to continue their research.

With the disconnection of Wu Zhaopu's manipulation, this situation occurred in the major Internet cafes in turn. At first, everyone was extremely dissatisfied with the sudden disconnection, but in the end they calmed down under the comfort of the three extremely cute q-version goddesses, and also subtly accepted the belief in supporting the "second world".

All of this was originally an idea that Wu Zhaopu came up with temporarily, to give everyone a yy space. Unexpectedly, it was very useful today. What made Wu Zhaopu unexpected is that since then, a large number of players have pulled out the network cable without problems, waiting for the three q version of the goddess to appear, just to see the warm picture more.

The butterfly effect has been slowly changing the world, and the system crash caused by cheats and the integrity problems caused by quasi-single-player games are slowly accumulating, waiting for the day of the outbreak.
