Chapter 491: 474: This is not fair!
“There’s still time to change it now, or no one will be playing the game tomorrow!”
A series of exclamation marks fully expressed Yelang’s anxiety in his heart.
With such a performance, the audience in the live broadcast room immediately split into two camps.
One row expressing great sorrow: “It’s over. This game is completely unplayable!”
The other camp, not interested in the game, continued to gloat even more ruthlessly, madly sending “hahaha!”
After Yelang finished writing his feedback and looked at the lump of wart pig feces on the ground three meters away, he felt a battle in his heart.
But soon, a star twinkled at the edge of his vision – the system response had arrived.
“So soon?” Yelang opened the panel with a slight surprise, looking at the reply he just got –
“Players can use the [Olfactory Control] option to change olfactory feedback and change the smell of prey feces to [Account Voting Options].”
Yelang blinked his eyes, not fully understanding the first time.
He read it word by word again before finally realizing Cloud Dream’s solution, and then – found it hard to accept this reality: “It’s over… All over…”
In the live broadcast room, the audience finally relaxed: “Great, Cloud Dream is still being reasonable.”
“Yay, I don’t have to smell the stink anymore!”
“I still want to smell it, but I think I can accept 10% of the smell.”
“I… want to smell strawberry-flavored shit?”
“Will those who voted for snail rice noodle-flavored… have their appetite increased?”
At the same time, a large number of players discovered this adjustment option and happily started the game without any hesitation.
In the live broadcast room, the audience finally noticed that Yelang’s expression didn’t seem quite right.”
“Anchor, why don’t you use the option?”
“Yeah, didn’t you say you voted to delete the smell, too?”
“You’re not lying to your brothers, are you?”
Yelang wanted to cry but had no tears: “I was really just joking!”
If it were any other time, this “betrayal of brothers, deceiving viewers” behavior would have been severely criticized.
But now…
The live broadcast room was flooded with “hahaha” comments.
“Hoist by your own petard!”
“You deserve it!”
“Digging your own grave”
“You brought this misery upon yourself!”
The live broadcast room had practically turned into a competition of idioms.
Faced with this overwhelming mockery, Yelang could only try to adjust his mindset:
“I’m actually okay.” He continued to pretend: “As long as I think about it: there are more than two million people, or a whole 38%, who are as miserable as I am, I feel a lot more balanced.”
“Thank you to [Still Stubborn] for the rocket emoji…”
“No! I’m not being stubborn! You guys, think about it, over two million players! With so many people, Cloud Dream can’t possibly ignore it. Maybe it’ll change tomorrow.”
However, his hope was soon shattered again-
The “Hunter” operation team reported a new change: “Sister Shen, there’s been a large number of refund requests in the background.”
Pausing for a moment, the employee couldn’t help but add: “A really large number!”
Samuel looked over and saw that it indeed was a very large number: tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of refund requests were being generated simultaneously.
In just ten minutes, the number of refund requests had exceeded 1.5 million and was rushing towards 2 million.
Samuel calmly said, “Filter the data to see how many of the people who requested a refund voted for [Double Smell] and how many directly refunded without entering the game.”
“Understood.” The team members quickly compared the data and then shockedly gave the answer: “Almost 100%!”
“Alright, we know now. When calculating the player refund rate later, remove these players directly. These fun-loving people don’t need to be included in the calculation.”
“Understood…”
After a massive withdrawal of fun-loving people, the actual players who voted for [Double Smell] instantly became the real minority, only slightly more than the least [Remain the same].
Yelang suddenly went from the “majority” to a complete “minority.”
But now, he still didn’t know this painful fact and had already cheered up, excited to start the hunting journey again.
Level up! Make money! Get better guns!
Players from all over were pouring into the game.
Even though the game was relatively niche and had severe shortcomings, the number of players who entered the game for the first time was still quite astonishing under the massive player base of Cloud Dream.
Oh, except for players from some Southeast Asian countries, especially Siam.
They had an especially nonexistent interest in hunting and still gathered massively in the Paradise Casino to play cards.
Only[Hermaphrodite Friend]Mario, for the sake of the live streaming effect, chose to enter the new game.
Before logging in, he even tried to invite his Siam gaming friends to join the hunt.
But his three Siam gaming friends didn’t even buy the game.
Not only did they not buy it, they didn’t even care about the game news from the beginning. They weren’t interested in the heavily discussed player voting events that took place earlier.
In their words: “What’s so interesting about hunting compared to playing cards?”
At the moment, their preliminary scores are already up to [87], [69], and [288]!
Lance would be envious of these scores.
He didn’t know why, but even though it was supposed to be a luck-based game, Cloud Dream clearly stated: NPC referees will track the location of every card on the table in real-time, making it impossible to cheat.
But he just couldn’t make the cut.
He’s still playing cards right now, hoping to get lucky and encounter weak opponents.
The good news is, after losing down to [-28] points at the beginning, his winning rate has slowly increased to [6] and continues to improve. With a little more luck in any round of cards, he might be promoted.
However, the club has basically given up on their own players…
The reason is simple – even if the players do manage to advance, their scores don’t exceed 100 points. But look at the scores published by Cloud Dream – those in the top ten have scores over 900!
Even the one in the last spot with 1000th place has a staggering 800 plus points.
These people might spend more than 10 hours a day playing cards online!
The club and the brand are already waving their wallets at these experts.
The clubs still show some concern, only choosing players from their own country.
However, those brand owners simply don’t care which country the player is from. As long as they perform well, they will quickly sign endorsements, even if it’s just for a month.
Right now, the popularity of playing cards and Mahjong is so high that catching on means profiting!
Unlike the lack of interest in Southeast Asian countries, two other countries have emerged – Russia and Australia.
In these two countries, the servers haven’t officially been set up yet; however, under the impetus of huge interests, the cooperating companies have quickly run through the relevant steps.
Now, without any special technical means, the countries can directly connect to Cloud Dream’s servers.
As for the problem of latency, in the technical environment of virtual reality, the game “Hunter: Call of the Wilderness” doesn’t have high requirements for network latency.
Most of the time, players are roaming leisurely outdoors with picturesque scenery. The battles that take place only involve aiming and shooting once before continuing to stroll and chase prey.
Whether the latency is high or low can almost be ignored.
Players in Australia can even connect to Cloud Dream’s server in Johor for a more stable network service.
The total number of Cloud Dream users in these two countries is less than 10 million. Still, the number of players who purchased the game for the first time exceeded 1.5 million, and the overall number of players is steadily increasing and now ranking only second to Daxia.
Russian player Ivan Ivanov heard a familiar roar up ahead.
He subconsciously licked his finger to feel the wind direction, then realized there was no need for that and directly approached the target downwind.
But before he could take a few steps, he suddenly heard a “bang” from a gunshot.
He immediately realized: his teammate had fired!
Right away, he heard the sound of a fierce beast running, and the heavy footsteps grew closer.
He looked at the caliber of the starting firearm in his hands, disdainfully shook his head and threw it aside. He moved his wrists briskly with both hands, then went forward without hesitation.
Not far away, several teammates were also in hot pursuit. Their encirclement plan was going smoothly, with only one step left –
“Ah!” Ivan Ivanov roared and confronted the bear head-on!
This animal is so cowardly! His neighbor even has one!
Moreover, he had observed that the prey in this game is even more cowardly than in reality, running at the sight of people.
The chances of a successful hunt are very high!
And as long as he succeeds, won’t the audience be subscribing and sending money?
―Ivan Ivanov is a small Russian anchor. He was just a hobbyist with little fame before. But once he caught up with the trend and got a Cloud Dream’s Mirage Console, things changed quickly.
In just three days’ time, his fans increased sixfold.
Unfortunately, right after that, more and more anchors got Mirage consoles and started live streaming virtual reality games, causing his fan growth rate to drop quickly.
So, this time, while others were still studying deer hunting, he had already started playing the new game with his friends, with the target being a black bear!
The next moment, man and bear faced each other directly!
But what Ivan Ivanov didn’t expect was: this bear showed no fear and charged right at him.
“Let me show you the power of the Slavic people!” Ivan couldn’t back down and charged straight at the bear!
Standing at a height of 1.88 meters, with a stout build and broad waist, Ivan Ivanov’s momentum was not at all inferior to the black bear in front of him!
“Ah!” He hammered a punch on the bear’s head, while his other arm tried to restrain the bear’s front limbs.
However, his powerful-looking grappling move didn’t have the desired effect – the bear easily broke free and slapped him on the forehead!
Ivan Ivanov instantly felt the world darken around him. The bear scratched him a couple of times before escaping before his teammates could arrive.
It took several seconds for Ivan’s hazy, blood-red vision to slowly brighten up.
The first thing that caught his eye was the concerned and pitying gazes from his three teammates.
The live streaming room was filled with “ыыы” comments. It was evident that these people were already laughing hysterically.
Ivan felt his self-esteem deeply hurt. He immediately opened the panel and found the game feedback option from Cloud Dream, expressing his dissatisfaction –
‘Strong protest! How can you make my strength so small! This is unfair!’
‘The virtual character should be generated based on our physical fitness in reality!’
