In fact, it''s not just Ample Time that noticed it. Many yers also did.


    The significance of this update is far more than just perfecting the economic system and incorporating contribution points into the honor system.


    Its greatest significance is to emphasize the cooperation between yers!


    As the number of yers increases, this step is actually inevitable.


    A good social system can not only increase yers'' gaming experience, but also increase user stickiness and daily activity.


    Although thetter is somewhat redundant for technically advanced games like Wastnd Online.


    So far, the yers who have been screened by Chu Guang are all hard-core yers. They almost wanted to stay online 24 hours a day. None of them wanted to leave the game unless they were forced to go offline.


    They were so self-disciplined, almost as if they didn''t have a sex life.


    In any case, in the eyes of most yers, the impact of this update on cooperation between yers is profound.


    Although the official social system has not been updated, many settings are actually paving the way for team formation and guild systems.


    For example, the setting that allows yers to sharend use rights with friends.


    5 square meters ofnd may not be able to do anything, but when four yers share theirnd, it would add up to 20 square meters—enough to build a small house.


    Isn''t this the prototype of the guild?


    "Little Seven, do you know what the soul of a game is?"


    "What is it?"


    Standing on the 3rd floor of the nursing home, watching the yersing in and out of the outpost base busily, Chu Guang''s mouth slightly curled up with a smile.


    "It''s mathematics."


    "Mathematics?"


    "Mhm, to be more precise, it should be numerical design. This is an art, and excellent numerical design can even be a gamey in itself. In contrast, plot, graphics, and settings are the additional value added to the game."


    After a pause, Chu Guang continued slowly.


    "Through the design of numerical values, we can keep the contribution points and money that most yers who follow the steps can get in a reasonable range in a day."


    "For example, under normal circumstances, it takes two to three weeks to be promoted from a resident to a citizen. This time cannot be too long, which will make the yer lose confidence, and it cannot be too short. Things that are too easy to get are meaningless. And when yers be citizens and our core users, we will immediately set new goals for them, such as buyingnd."


    Little Seven tilted the camera.


    "Buyingnd? But thend price you set doesn''t seem to be expensive, right."


    "Yes," Chu Guang nodded. "For yers who have obtained citizenship, it will not take long to buy thend itself, but after buying thend, you have to build something on it, right?"


    "Building a house requires cement and bricks. A stronger small western-style building also requires steel. If a few more houses needed to be built, the demand for building materials such as cement, bricks, and steel would definitely increase, don''t you think so? I don''t believe that these yers would be satisfied to live in a shack in the game. In terms of why citizens can only 5 square meters per yer? If I give them 10 square meters, or 20 square meters per yer, soon our safe area will be filled with useless shacks and garbage."


    Little Seven: "Ah, this."


    For an AI, it seems difficult to understand these things empathically.


    But Chu Guang didn''t care.


    With a faint smile, he continued.


    "When the house is built, you can''t live in an unfurnished house, right? Whether it''s a bed, a table, a cab, carpets, curtains, or light bulbs when electricityes... With demands of those things, the supply and production will inevitably increase."


    Whether it''s buyingnd to build a house or buying furniture, these all cost money, right?


    And where does the moneye from?


    Sorry, this game is still in alpha testing and currently does not support real money. If yers want to make money, they can only honestly do missions.


    Through the lever of the mission system, Chu Guang can easily control the flow of money, thereby indirectly controlling the behavior of the yers.


    For example, if the sheltercks food, increase the remuneration for gathering and hunting tasks. If the shelter needs more houses, then increase the ie of moving bricks, stering, and making cement.


    What if mutants or marauders came to the door?


    Then it''s not a matter of money.


    Chu Guang will start the "Never Retreat" war mobilization in the form of "in-game activities", and temporarily exempt yers from the death penalty during the event and issue them weapons.


    Facing a group of maniacs that are not afraid of death, even mutant humans that don''t know what fear is would still be afraid.


    "... When they''ve tried almost all the daily tasks, I would open up a new identity level for them to y. There will be intermediate citizens above the regr citizens, and thend that can be purchased will be increased to 25 square meters. Then the second wall will be built. When that timees, there would be no shortage of cement, bricks, wood, and steel. Not surprisingly, they will build a bigger house and experiment with other things."


    "When they get tired of building houses, I would give noble titles to these old yers and then arrange a slightly distant fief, so that they could have fun in their own territory and little kingdom. Weapons, ammunition, food, fuel, building materials... If they can''t produce any, they can import them from the shelter, and those can also be tasks for new yers."


    "As for what I can give them after that? I''ll leave it aside at the moment. Damn, I just unlocked the B1 floor of the shelter myself, but I have to worry about what I can give to them..."


    It''s still unknown how many culture chambers are stored in No. 404 shelter. Maybe he will have to figure out how to build this stuff in the future.


    He was convinced that the first administrator with great magical powerspleted a certain "unprecedented" great technology in this shelter.


    And after he reveals all the secrets, he will definitely tell him all the truth.


    However, although the road ahead is unpredictable, Chu Guang is still full of confidence in this major update of the Alpha 0.3 version.


    He is ying a long game.


    In his first phase of the n, the yers who have received nine years ofpulsory education are all high-quality productive forces, and there is no problem in skipping the agricultural society and jumping into industrialization.


    Afterpleting the most basic industrialization, the prerequisite for survival on the wastnd will be ready.


    In the second stage, as the number of yers expands, Chu Guang will try to procure a batch of native people from the wastnd to join the outpost to engage in basic production positions such as farming, cutting trees, and producing cement. If there are special talents among these aboriginal people, he will also arrange special positions for them.


    yers who have been upgraded to citizens can be freed from basic manualbor positions and devote more time to challenging and "fun" work such as creativity,bat, and exploration, and give full y to their advantage of being able to continue to respawn.


    This brings him to the third stage, which is the final stage.


    Ideally, the native people as NPCs and the yers as clones should have formed a special symbiotic social rtionship by then.


    Complement each other''s strengths and restrain each other.


    If everything goes well, the yers who have real estate, property, equipment, friendship, and even love here will regard Wastnd Online as their "second life" and be a champion of order rather than a challenger, forming a good game ecology.


    This kind of game actually exists in reality.


    Commonly known as "server environment".


    Of course, Chu Guang also knows that ns will never keep up with changes, so he''s also prepared many n Bs to deal with sudden situations.


    But at least for now, the implementation of the first phase of the n is still quite good.


    These closed alpha yers carefully selected by Chu Guang were obviously convinced by his empty promises, and they were more cooperative than he thought.


    Little Seven raised its camera, looked at its master standing next to it, and reminded him in a low voice.


    "Master, do you know that you are smiling like a viin now?"


    "Viin? Have you ever seen a kind viin like me?"


    Chu Guang red at this rude robot.


    "I liberated them from their boring daily routines and gave them an extraordinary and extra 12 hours in their lives. All they need to pay is a little sweat and dreaming time, other than that, they have no losses. It didn''t even cost a penny!"


    Damnit.


    Now that I think about it, the helmet should be charged!


    But after thinking about it again, Chu Guang didn''t know the use of asking for money. He couldn''t get the things he bought online, and he didn''t need to pay for the electricity bills of the server and the cost of the helmet.


    At least for now, collecting money will be troublesome.


    Shaking his head, Chu Guang retracted his gaze from the window, turned his back to Little Seven and yawned.


    "The wind on the rooftop is a bit strong."


    "I''ll go back to the shelter first, I''ll leave it to you here."


    The "Bull and Horse Squad" he was most optimistic about had already set off with the bows, arrows, javelins, and dry food. They should be going out hunting.


    Before, Chu Guang had been deliberately training the yer named Night Ten, not only teaching him the experience of living in the wastnd and how to use "sense" to track prey and insight into danger, but also leading him to sessfully find the deer herd.


    If he can''t get any prey back, he should be ashamed.


    It happened that there were not many 9mm bullets, and Chu Guang decided to give himself a day off today.


    Little Seven bobbed its camera and obediently responded.


    "Yes, master."


    ...


    At noon.


    A hoarse whimper came out of the half-opened culture chamber next to the residents'' hall of the shelter.


    "Wuwuwu, I finally respawned!"


    Because she was excited, she knocked her forehead on the hatch that was not fully opened when she sat up from the culture chamber all of sudden. Ya Ya rubbed her red forehead and sat up from the culture chamber again.


    Looking at the delicate skin in the mirror opposite, tears filled her eyes.


    Half was caused by pain, half was excitement.


    Before going online, she had been watching other people discussing the game on the forum for three days!


    Three days!


    God knows how she survived these three sleepless nights without a helmet.


    Wiping the tear, Ya Ya quickly put on the clothes ced in the cabin storagepartment, and ran out of the room.


    The lights in the residents'' hall were on.


    Chu Guang, who had just returned from the outside, was sitting in front of theputer in the lobby and surfing the Inte.


    Hearing the sound of footstepsing from next door, he turned off the webpage he was browsing, released the mouse, and looked at the yer who entered the lobby.


    "Dear administrator, please allow me to apologize to you for my hasty and reckless behavior!"


    Although the game designer told her that an apology wouldn''t help her much, this NPC was too realistic.Especially when he looked over, she always felt that if she didn''t say a word of sorry, she wouldn''t be able to forgive herself.


    "You don''t have to apologize to me. What you fail is the trust of the organization and the people who are still waiting underground."


    Chu Guang nced at her clothes.


    If he remembers correctly, there are only two sets of this blue jacket uniform for each culture chamber. If this yer dies again, I am afraid she will have to y without having any clothes on.


    Although Teng Teng has made some warm animal skin jackets, they are only suitable for wearing on top of something. If there is nothing on the inside, it will be somewhat unsuitable for other yers to watch.


    Especially since this yer''s figure is a bit special...


    Chu Guang continued nkly.


    "... ording to the rules, I should deduct 500 points of your contribution, but unfortunately you have no contribution points to deduct."


    Ya Ya lowered her head and said ashamed.


    "I''m really sorry, I''m willing to ept all punishments!"


    "Punishment is for you to learn your lesson. If you want to survive in this wastnd, you need not only bravery, but also brains. I hope you can cherish your life, and cherish the hard-won chance toe to the surface even more..."


    Chu Guang paused and continued.


    "I''ll give you a task. Collect 100 kilograms of food outside, including but not limited to wild vegetables, berries, and mushrooms. Until the punishment task ispleted, your status will be reduced from ''resident'' to ''criminal''. You can''t get any rewards even if you receive tasks normally."


    "Remember, your bnce is no longer enough to pay the death penalty. If you die again, I will send you back underground permanently."


    "Good luck."


    Permanent repatriation means kicking her out of the game forever


    In the fictional game setting, all yerse from the deepest part of the shelter—a dormant center that freezes thousands of people, active as an advance force returning to the surface.


    Hearing the words of permanent repatriation, Ya Ya trembled and said quickly.


    "Yes! I promise that I''ll never be reckless again!"


    Satisfied with her attitude, Chu Guang nodded gently.


    "Now go."


    Ya Ya was dejected and was about to walk towards the door, but at this moment, the administrator sitting at the desk suddenly stopped her.


    "Wait a moment."


    Ya Ya stopped and turned back.


    "Do you have any more orders?"


    "Mhm, wait a moment, I''ll show you something."


    With that said, Chu Guang took out a metal-packaged can from the drawer, pulled off the tab, and tore off the lid of the can.


    An aroma wafted from the can.


    Chu Guang was stunned when he saw it.


    Unexpectedly, this old can not only has noyer of stagnant oil, but looks the same as it had when it had just been produced.


    Could it really be recently produced....


    Chu Guang''s expression is a little weird.


    Do I still need to test if it''s poisonous?


    I feel like it''s unnecessary.


    Ya Ya, who had just been resurrected, didn''t think much.


    Her stomach was empty at the moment. She was not hungry originally, but when she saw the delicious canned food, she couldn''t help swallowing.


    Looking up at the administrator, her face was filled with disbelief and touch.


    "This, is this for me?"


    Chu Guang didn''t answer, but just asked.


    "Want to eat?"


    Ya Ya nodded quickly.


    "Mhm."


    Chu Guang continued to ask.


    "Is there anything wrong with the color? For example... can you see if it''s glowing in green light?"


    Ya Ya shook her head vigorously.


    "No!"


    When she was hungry, everything would be delicious, her attention waspletely caught by the food, and she couldn''t help swallowing again.


    This administrator was really a good man!


    Although he just punished her, but, but-


    "Okay, thanks."


    Chu Guang took the can back.


    "I just want to show it to you, don''t think too much about it."


    Ya Ya: "???"


    In the end, the yer ran out with tears in her eyes.


    Chu Guang, who was sitting on a chair and eating canned food, also felt that he might have been a little bit too much this time......................................................................................................................................
