Chapter 4: The correct way to play sandbox games

Seeing the other side's huge body shape from far and near, Lin Chi standing on the steps slightly narrowed his eyes.
- This guy is obviously an npc. Moreover, it should be the mission.
Thinking of this, Lin Chi’s eyebrows unconsciously appeared a few wrinkles.
Of course he knows that people can't be seen, but that is in the real world. There are many npcs in the game that can be inferred from the shape.
What's more, there are some more hateful guys...
When I think of the npc that I have encountered in the brain-based image-playing role-playing game that has been hated by the players, Lin is late and feels weak.
According to his experience, the npcs that make players feel disgusted in role-playing games are roughly divided into two types -
Lin Chi is thinking, the fat man in the suit has stood in front of him, and said straightforwardly:
"Kid, are you the champion of this ghost place? I have a ‘dirty job’ here, and I am very rewarded. Can you help me?

Then, in front of Lin Chi’s eyes, there was another prompt that only he could see:
Start the task: killing people.
"Is this task name too straightforward?" Lin Chi spit.
His voice has not fallen, and the two bodyguards behind the fat man have come forward from the left and right. The two dark figures are full of pressure, and there is a full threat between the gestures.
Seeing this scene, Lin Chi frowned again and was about to ask the other party for the details of the task. Then he saw the fat man's disdainful grin, and he said slowly: "You have to understand, miscellaneous, you have no right to refuse. I am not Be reasonable with you..."
"The first one." Lin Chi sighed.
"What are you talking about?" asked the fat man.
"Nothing." Lin Chi shook his head.
- Two kinds of npcs that will make players feel disgusted in the game, the first of which is the plot characters that have a bad attitude towards the players.
No one likes to be humiliated when playing games, and in a near-real brain imaging game, this sense of disgust will increase several times.
However, in some games, even npcs that cannot be skipped in the mainline story will be irritating to the player and may even beat the player.
The most depressing thing is that this kind of npc is only judged as a "friendly camp" by the system. Even if the players hate the teeth, they will not have any way to do them. They can only complete the tasks they have set up while screaming.
However, there may be other solutions in a sandbox game like War Heaven.
With this in mind, Lin Chi suddenly said: "Let's talk about it later?"
While speaking, he pointed his finger at the back of the ferrous metal building in the arena, shrouded in the shadowless alleys.
"What do you mean?" The fat man's small eyes smashed into a slit.
Lin Chi can see that the IQ level of this npc is indeed higher than those in the arena, but it is not high. This trap, which is obvious to humans, is completely undetectable.
As for the two bodyguards next to it, it is similar to the existence of mental retardation. In such a dialogue, there is no need to care about them.
"If you need to kill, I have weapons here to show you, it is not convenient in the street." Lin Chi explained.
The fat man almost immediately nodded, led his two bodyguards and turned to the corner of the arena behind the arena.
- This kind of lame lie that will be debunked by the normal human beings has become a reason for "justified" for npc.
Realizing this, Lin Chi did not say anything, just put his right hand under the gray cloak and quietly held the cold pistol grip.
Follow the fat man and two bodyguards, and come to the end of the dark alleys that no one will notice behind the arena. The obese suit man said: "Two days ago, there was a slum-born gangster who killed one of my bodyguards and took his gun. It made me very faceless. What you have to do is kill her... ..."
"Oh." Lin Chi puts out the look of the ear and looks for the opportunity to start.
When he just killed the boxer, he has noticed that there is no exact number of damage in War Heaven. The damage calculation rule is not like a game, but rather similar to the real world.
Now his pistol proficiency is 1, and there are still five rounds of bullets. Although the proficiency is really low, it should still be hit within a distance of less than three meters.
With this in mind, Lin Chi looked down at the two bodyguards' hands behind them and the holsters around their waists.
Then he started the countdown silently:
Three, two, one.
Hands-on!
At that moment, the old player who had fought in battle, his body moved like a god, and pulled the gun at lightning speed!
boom!
A shot shattered the head of the bodyguard standing on the left, and Lin Chi’s right hand was numb by the recoil. His power attribute is completely enough to use a pistol, but the low proficiency has forced the shooting to be difficult.
"what!"
Seeing that the bodyguard was killed, the obese man screamed in horror and began to run backwards. The other bodyguard quickly pulled out the pistol and aimed at Lin Chi’s chest!
Seeing the other side to resist, Lin Chi, who had no time to aim, opened three shots, and another bodyguard in front of him fell down with blood.
At this time, the fat man has already ran 10 meters and will see it on the street.
"He wants to call the police."
Realizing that the situation was not good, Lin Chi took the pistol's handle with both hands and aimed at the unsuspecting back of the opponent in a standard shooting position. He did not hesitate to buckle the trigger again and hit the last remaining bullet.
This gun has no suspense to fight.
"Damn proficiency." Lin Chi sighed, turned and looked at the ground around him, and immediately found the weapons available.
Bending over and picking up a dark red object on the wall, he lowered his body and rushed toward the fat man.
At the same time, his inventory popped up in the field of view, and a bunch of tips appeared:
Brick.
Melee weapons (can be thrown).
Item Level: Normal.
Universal weapon, can be used without proficiency. Minimum force value required: 7. The maximum attack power required requires a power value of 12.
"The brick is a civilian weapon that can be seen everywhere. It can exert a huge lethal effect in the hands of the master. It is a must-have for home travel. The bricks are in hand, I have it in the world!"
No time to pay attention to the introduction of the item, Lin Chi relied on the physical attributes of ordinary people, and stepped into the back of the fat man in three steps and lifted the bricks to the other's skull.
A crack is heard and the battle is over.
Throwing away the bricks, Lin Chi looked around and confirmed that his actions had not been seen by others, and began to check the gains of this battle:
Except for the pistol proficiency of 2 points, the other attributes did not change at all. The previous task, called "killing and killing", also changed from a yellow-completed state to a gray incomplete state.
However, for Lin Chi, who did not want to take this task, this kind of thing is completely irrelevant.
"This is the correct way to play sandbox games." He laughed.
After a groping on the body of the fat man, he found 3,000 dollars in cash and a car key. In addition to this, there is a blurry photo.
- In this way, in the "War of War" killing the task npc not only no punishment, but also can search for spoils.
However, things should not be that simple.
Lin Chi is very clear, if there is really no punishment for killing npc, players can make a fortune by simply killing npc by madness, and the difficulty is too low.
In this kind of open world game, killing people will have a punishment mechanism, such as...
Lin Chi had no time to go back and search for the body of two bodyguards, from the front of the alley, the messy footsteps, and a gloomy male voice:
"I heard the gunshots just now, right here!"
When the voice did not fall, he saw three flat-headed men wearing black long trench coats and sunglasses, appearing in the alley, facing each other.
These people have dark blue epaulets on their shoulders and a rough shield on the epaulettes. Their right hand was pressed on the holster of the waist, and it was obviously ready to pull the gun.
At the same time, in the upper right corner of Lin Chi’s field of vision, two flashing purple four-pointed stars appeared, and the side was also very intimately explained in words:
You have reached the overnight index of 2. City security personnel are trying to arrest you, they may use lethal force.
"I admit that you are still stronger now..." Lin said in a low voice.
Then he picked up the bricks at his feet.
