This Game Is Too Realistic

The next morning.

Outside the walls of the sanatorium, there was a lot of people shouting and shouting.

"To transport stones at an abandoned construction site, a team of four is waiting, three to one. The rent for the two trolleys has been paid. Hurry up if you want to get on the truck."

"Do you have any friends in the strength department? Wait for a teammate to chop down trees and earn money to level up!"

"The agility department needs a team! The perception department is given priority, the intelligence department is put aside, and the scavenging task in the northern townhouse is completed! GKD!"

"Damn it, the intelligence department has no human rights???"

"The outpost is recruiting part-time warehouse managers. The daily fixed salary is 9 silver coins and 100 contribution points. The working hours are from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., with a 3-hour break in between. The work content includes checking books, counting inventory, and purchasing and selling materials. Priority will be given to the intelligence department, and only two people will be recruited. Note that the managers will always keep an eye on you, and you will be punished severely if you are found to be engaging in malpractice for personal gain... Damn it! I signed up!"

"The carpentry hut is also hiring! The daily minimum salary is 10 silver coins and 200 contribution points, and additional commissions are received for tool making orders. Well, it requires carpentry experience, the ability to process logs, and the ability to make furniture of good or higher quality, bows and arrows, spears... Slipping away."

After the version update, each player received a newbie gift pack of 5 copper coins from the generous manager.

What can you do with 5 copper coins?

There are actually quite a lot of things you can do.

For example, you can rent an ax for 5 hours at the logging cabin, or rent a pallet truck, cart and other tools for 5 hours at the warehouse.

In addition to renting, you can also buy a pound of potato chips, green wheat or 100g of dried meat in the warehouse. The purchasing power is still great.

It has to be said that players are always the easiest creatures to adapt to.

If the scavengers of Beit Street heard that someone was going to use metal pieces to replace the chips they had used for nearly a century, they would probably immediately stand up and fight that person.

But players are different.

They are a group of particles doing Brownian motion in a bottle, and there is a duality between chaos and order in them. As long as they still need to put on and take off the helmet repeatedly, there will never be a way out of the bottle.

Games have rules, and updates and adjustments are the norm.

For players, this is common sense.

In less than an hour, these self-taught little geniuses were already familiar with the rules of the new version, and began to figure out how to play within the rules to adapt to this version.

The open space in front of the fence.

Fang Chang did not leave immediately. Instead, he called Lao Bai, Ye Shi, and Kuang Feng over and sat around to hold a combat meeting.

Fang Chang: "The biggest change in Alpha0.3 version is the change in the economic system and identity system."

Fang Chang: "I just consulted the manager's assistant. If you want to get contribution points, in addition to making major contributions, you can only get them through employment. Taking the warehouse manager with the lowest threshold as an example, you can get 100 contribution points in one day of work. , if you start from 0 basis, it takes 20 days to reach citizenship under normal circumstances.”

Kuangfeng touched the bridge of his nose, raised his hand and said.

"I would like to add that it is not just through the employment system. There is a guarantee for daily tasks. For example, if you cut down 20 trees and drag them to the carpenter's cabin, in addition to the reward of cutting down the tree itself, you can also get 80 contribution points... However, you can get contributions for daily tasks. The upper limit of points is only 160 points, which is enough for almost two missions.”

Fang Chang: "Hmm... Using the rotation time of professional tasks to do daily work, the theoretical maximum contribution points that can be obtained in a single day is 260, and it will take 8 days to accumulate 2,000 points. But it is estimated to be difficult for ordinary people."

Ye Shi whispered.

"Holy crap, let's put it this way... isn't my 3,000 contribution points a bit impressive?!"

Lao Bai touched the back of his head and chuckled.

"I'm 5,000."

Ye Shi: "Gan!"

When you first enter the game, the contribution points for cutting down trees are calculated based on the length and thickness of the wood. A tree as thick as an arm contributes 1 point per meter. Thigh-thick trees contribute 2 points per meter.

Maybe the numerical planning of the game was not designed well. As a result, Lao Bai, who was in the strength department, reached 800 points by cutting down trees. Even Fang Chang, who had the weakest physical strength, earned 300 points in a single day.

This is obviously unreasonable.

Sure enough, starting from the Alpha 0.2 version, the income from cutting down trees has been greatly reduced. As of the current Alpha 0.3 version, the income from cutting down a tree is only 2 or 4 copper coins depending on the thickness and length. And if you don't have your own axe, you have to pay rent of 1 copper coin per hour and accept credit.

Even if you cut down 20 thigh-thick pine trees in a day, you will only earn 80 copper coins, which is only 8 silver coins.

Coupled with the 80 contribution points from the settlement of 20 trees, the lumberjack profession is simply an epic overhaul compared to when the server was first launched!

However, there is indeed no shortage of wood at the outpost. The trees are probably cut down to facilitate farming in the coming spring.

"Thanks to the overflow of contribution points in the early stage of the game, the four of us now have the highest contribution points in the game. I have already redeemed my citizenship, and you will also upgrade your status in a while. In this way, we have a total of 20 square meters. Land could be enclosed close to nursing homes.”

"What are you doing with the enclosed land?"

"Stupid! Build a house! Is it okay to build a three-story house for a small apartment of 20 square meters? As long as the height does not exceed the sanatorium in the middle. The first floor will be the facade, the second and third floors will be partitions, and each person will have a room and a bed. Wouldn’t it be nice to put a box or something?”

Fang Chang rolled his eyes at Ye Shi, how could this guy ask such a stupid question.

"It makes sense..." Lao Bai's eyes lit up, "You can do business!"

The facade is facing the gate of the sanatorium. The player's resurrection point is simply a prime location among prime locations. You can make a fortune just by selling anything!

"That's right! That's what I considered!"

Fang Chang snapped his fingers, a smile appeared on his face, and he said confidently.

"The new version obviously encourages players to use their creativity and organize production and transactions spontaneously! Do you remember what Dog--well, what was emphasized at the beginning of the planning? The goal of Wasteland OL is to create an economy that can truly reflect the relationship between supply and demand. system, and this also determines the players’ equipment and supplies in the future, a large part of which may have to be obtained through transactions between players!”

If we don’t enclose the land now, when will we wait?

It's a pity that the identity system limits the upper limit of land that each player can purchase. Otherwise, Fang Chang really wants to save money to buy all the land around the sanatorium and directly develop wasteland real estate.

Isn’t this more cost-effective than buying a house in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou?

Is there any possibility that the public beta of this game will not be popular?

"Awesome!" Even Guangfeng couldn't help but give a thumbs up this time.

This analysis is so spot on!

Ye Shi and Lao Bai looked at each other with excitement written on their faces.

“How much does it cost to buy land?”

Fang Chang said with a smile.

"I checked, and it only costs 10 silver coins for 1 square meter. What we have to do now is to collect 200 silver coins before all the players do! Buy the 20 square meters closest to the sanatorium!"

Lao Bai hesitated and said, "What if someone is faster than us?"

Fang Chang made a helpless expression.

"If it is true, then let him join us."

There are not many people who have risen to the citizen level. Even if there are people faster than them, how many can there be? It doesn't matter if there are two more.

The three of them nodded and had no objections to bringing others into the group.

"I have another question," Ye Shi raised his hand and said, "What can we do to save money? I checked and found that the job of burning cement is the highest-paying among professions without experience threshold, but the daily income is only 10 silver coins. Including the 20% production bonus, the maximum is only 12...and there are only two people."

Guangfeng pointed in that direction and reminded.

"And there's no space left now. Look at the cement kiln...the smoke is already rising, so it's probably full of people already."

Although the cement kiln was built by Lao Bai and the others, after the land system was updated in version Alpha0.3, the facilities within the walls were all listed as public facilities.

As the builders of the facility, both Laobai and Fangchang enjoyed a 30-day right of first refusal.

But the location of the cement kiln was too remote, almost next to the wall. There was no telling if foreign enemies would invade one day and a bullet would come over and destroy it.

Neither of them intends to waste their precious "land purchase quota". After all, the technical content of this thing is not high. It is better to wait until the assets are disposed of after 30 days. The fixed assets above the land will be officially confiscated, and the managers will compensate them with a sum of money and contributions. .

They are even eager to confiscate it now and use the demolition compensation money to buy land.

Fang Chang said while touching his chin.

"Even if we don't fully recruit people, I don't recommend applying for those fixed positions. If you want to outperform other players, you have to find another way."

Ye Shi looked at him and asked.

"for example?"

"Like hunting!"

"Hunting?"

Fang Chang nodded.

"Well, I just saw at the entrance of the warehouse that the corpse of a mutated hyena can be exchanged for 5 silver coins. If the prey weighs more than 30 kilograms, you can get an additional 2 copper coins for every kilogram over."

Ye Shi's eyes widened.

"5 silver coins? That much?!"

This is still based on the lowest standard!

Although the weight of mutant hyenas is basically about 30 kilograms, it is autumn now, and most prey are accumulating fat, and their weight is generally heavier than usual.

This game is very detailed.

"...Well, in addition to mutant hyenas, there are also mutant reindeer on the purchase list, and the price of each prey is at least 12 silver coins! Basically, the four of us team up, as long as we can kill 8 mutant hyenas in a day, It can stably surpass the income of four people making cement together! If you have one more head, you will make money!"

This is the fastest way that Fang Chang can think of to earn 200 silver coins.

"But...where are we going to find so many prey?" Lao Bai said hesitantly, "The wetland park seems to be full of birds and small animals. We have to go to the city after leaving the wetland park to find larger prey, right?" "

Before Fang Chang could answer, Ye Shi, who was sitting next to him, raised his hand.

"Don't worry about this! I have been hunting with the manager these days. I have remembered which places in this area are dangerous and where there are many prey. And yesterday the manager and I also discovered migrating deer. As long as we follow the deer It’s easy to find prey by following the swarm’s tracks!”

Storm nodded.

"Well, our Ye Shi is of the perception system. The 9-point perception is currently the highest among all players. It shouldn't be difficult to search for prey. The question now is, how to hunt? The weapons dealer hasn't even gone to work yet."

Fang Chang smiled confidently and said.

"There is no need to use a gun. Throwing spears, slingshots, bows and arrows, crossbows... As long as they are used properly, these weapons perform no worse than guns at medium and close ranges."

Kuangfeng asked with a frown.

"Have you ever used a bow? It's not easy to hit someone with that thing."

He had tried archery once when the university organized an archery club team building event, and he still used a bow with a professional sight.

Not to mention hitting the target 20 meters away, a bag of 10 arrows, being able to touch your own target after shooting is considered a bit of talent.

Many people are obviously aiming at their own targets, and there are many protective cottons that hit other people's targets or are spread on the floor and ceiling. .

If it is a bow and arrow without a sight...

Guangfeng couldn't imagine how touching the hit rate would be.

However, Fang Chang didn't seem worried about this problem, and still had a confident smile on his face.

"Don't worry about this. Leave archery to me. I have a little basic knowledge. You are responsible for making traps and finishing strikes, Lao Bai is the front row, and Ye Shi is responsible for reconnaissance and vigilance."

"Believe me, this lineup is solid!"
