Chapter 32: Gameplay

[You use your energy to water the Tongtian Divine Tree.]

[The Tongtian Divine Tree absorbed the energy and grew very well. 】

【The Sky-reaching Divine Tree (LV1) → (LV2). 】

[The power of the Tongtian Divine Tree has been enhanced. As someone who lives and breathes the Tongtian Divine Tree, your power has also been enhanced.]

[The number of players you summon increases by 4. ]

[You can choose one of the following three options as your new ability. ]

[1: Clone. You can consume energy to generate an immovable virtual clone, which can replicate some of your abilities and help you manage your players.

2: Nesting. You can consume energy to create a new resurrection pool.

Three: Strengthening. You can consume energy to strengthen one of your abilities. The number of times you strengthen cannot exceed the level of the Tongtian Divine Tree. The energy consumed to strengthen the same ability increases. 】

Three new abilities appeared in front of Chu Zhongxing for him to choose from.

Looking at the ability that was completely different from the last time, Chu Zhongxing couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Chu Zhongxing thought that two of the three abilities that appeared this time were the ones he had left over from last time, but he didn't expect that the ability values ​​that appeared this time were actually brand new.

"The abilities that appeared last time were telepathy, translation, and linking. This time they are clones, nesting, and strengthening."

Chu Zhongxing tapped the table with his fingers, staring at the three virtual abilities in front of him, and began to analyze the functions of these three abilities in his mind.

The first is the clone, which can replicate some of his abilities and help him manage the players under his command.

At present, I don’t manage players very much. The only thing I need to pay attention to about the players is to display the attribute panel and task bar in front of them.

Choosing the clone ability is equivalent to having an extra AI to help him materialize the attribute panel and task bar in front of the player.

"This ability can completely free me up, and I can also build a complete task framework and game panel framework."

"In short, the current game's task system will be fully upgraded. I can add daily tasks and task rewards to players to motivate them."

The closed beta of "Bai Jia Zhu Dao" has been going on for five days.

In the first three days, the four players were quite active in going online. Even if they were daydreaming in the game, they would continue to play for 16 hours before being forced to log off.

But in the next two days, players were not so enthusiastic about going online.

One is that the player level increases too slowly. Currently, the highest-level Niu Bu has only reached level 3, and the improvement in physical fitness is not obvious.

Second, other than Niu Bu, players have no goals to pursue.

Niu Bu can also look forward to changing his job to become a military strategist and learn all kinds of military skills.

As for the other three players, after they went online, they repeated the five teachings every day but did not get much benefit, there were no Xianyun attacks, and they could not change their jobs. They were not active enough in going online.

RPG games, whether they are for scenery, plot, or gameplay, must give players motivation to continue playing.

Although "Baijia Zhudao" is the first 100% real immersive holographic online game on Blue Planet, the game content is too little at present.

"Bai Jia Zhu Dao" only has boring hacking and slashing training and riding training. The upgrade is very slow and there are very few tasks. There is almost no combat link. Most importantly, the food is terrible.

This resulted in the rich lady Yileimiao, who could often ride horses in real life, not being as active online as before.

The new ability clone will alleviate this problem to a certain extent.

The second ability is nesting. It is equivalent to saving at the resurrection point. If you start to attack the barbarians, you can consider opening a resurrection point directly in the barracks to save players' time running around.

As for the third ability enhancement.

Chu Zhongxing is not quite sure about the ability of this enhancement.

“Quests are the easiest way to increase player motivation.”

"With the ability to clone myself, I can restructure the game's mission system, allowing players to trigger various missions anytime and anywhere, thereby increasing player activity."

"This way, players don't need to follow the instructor to train the Five Teachings all the time. They can explore Yancheng and even the northern border."

"In addition to what General Guo said a few days ago about the farmland, hunting grounds, and the almost abandoned military clinic in Yancheng."

Chu Zhongxing made up his mind and chose the ability of clone among the three abilities.

As Chu Zhongxing confirmed, the Tongtian Divine Tree continued to shake, and soon the Tongtian Divine Tree, which had only five buds, grew a sixth bud.

The six sprouts represent the six abilities mastered by Chu Zhongxing.

"Hey, where's Yilei Miao? I didn't see Yilei Miao today. Could it be that even a 100% realistic game can't attract her?"

"Come on, brother. This game is really good, but there's too little content. I've been playing for five days and I'm either hacking and slashing or riding a horse. I'm getting a little bored!"

"It's really a bit boring. I only leveled up twice in five days, but there wasn't a single monster-killing scene. Every day I see Xiaoer brother bragging in front of us that he's about to complete his job change. I don't want to play anymore."

He Ao agrees with Zhuge Wangye's words. He was so anxious that he couldn't sleep since he was not allowed to go online at the beginning of the game, and now he is a little fed up with it. This is enough to show that there is a problem with the gameplay of "Baijia Zhudao".

Today in 2024, the quality of the scenery is not the core content of a game, but the gameplay is.

To be honest, He Ao is still very disappointed with the planning of "Bai Jia Zhu Dao". You have constructed such a huge background and built such a huge game, but in the end you don't let the players go out of Yancheng to explore on their own. How much fun is lost.

Do you know why the pixel-style "Minecraft" is so popular?
He Ao really wanted to say to the planner, do you fucking understand "A Hundred Schools of Thought"?

Yileimiao did not appear in Yancheng until noon. Seeing Yileimiao's coach Wang Qiuwu walking towards Yileimiao angrily, Chu Zhongxing hurriedly went forward to stop Wang Qiuwu.

"Coach Wang."

"Mr. Chu!"

Wang Qiuwu still showed a certain respect to Chu Zhongxing. He bowed to Chu Zhongxing and asked him what was the matter.

"Coach Wang, there's no need to be angry about Yile Miao."

Chu Zhongxing thought for a moment and said tactfully: "Yileimiao is a soldier under my command. Can I talk to him first?"

"Okay, then I'll trouble Mr. Chu to look after Yilei Miao for me."

Coach Wang gave Chu Zhongxing enough face. Although Chu Zhongxing was only a small captain now, Guo Xiaoding had already treated Chu Zhongxing as his own disciple. Many veterans of the Zhenbei Army were very polite to Chu Zhongxing.

Chu Zhongxing strode to Yi Leimiao and other players. He looked at the four players and did not scold them. Instead, he asked with a smile: "My fellow warriors, how do you feel about Yancheng these days?"

"kindness?"

Several players looked at Chu Zhongxing in confusion, and the next second, a page popped up in front of them.

"Bai Jia Zhu Dao" questionnaire survey.
