"That’s right! When you encounter those who spew nonsense, whether they’re foreigners or our people, target them hard and you’ll likely get 功德 rewards!"

Players are all great detectives.

As the UP’s video spreads further, more and more players confirm that the bug does exist in "Cultivation Fantasy."

Therefore, with the players’ active exploration, new rules were quickly summarized.

"In competitive games, the kill-death ratio, commonly known as net KD value, can roughly estimate the 功德 rewards."

Lu read the content displayed on the screen word by word: "But this is not absolute, the conversion rate of net KD to 功德 varies in different games..."

League of Legends is an example.

In League of Legends, the 功德 conversion rate of a player’s net KD value is slightly lower than that of games like "Hunting Moment."

However, according to players’ actual tests, this also depends on the situation.

A player with the community nickname "Dubhe Feng" showcased a screenshot. In the screenshot, his Leopard Maiden’s record as a jungler was 21/1/7, purely destroying weak opponents.

He mentioned that this game was specifically played on the US Server, and the opposing players were basically all Americans.

21-1=20!

If using the net KD calculation method, he played so aggressively in this match, Heavenly Dao should surely give a large amount of 功德 rewards, with at least 10 points as a baseline.

But in reality, after the game ended, he only received two 功德 rewards!

This doesn’t make sense...

Playing Leopard Maiden as a jungler, stacking the Book of Slaying, killing wherever he went, with all the opponent being native US server players, and he didn’t kill the wrong person, why only give such little 功德 reward?

Another player who enjoys playing Apex also stated that this 功德 conversion isn’t simply targeting foreigners.

He shared his test results.

The game used for testing was the Steam Platform’s popular battle royale FPS game "APEX," where he and his teammates specifically went to the Japanese Server to hunt Neon players.

Unfortunately, they landed and rolled, got wrecked by a controller player, and only he survived from the three-man squad.

Lone wolves have no future.

With the team wiped out, not only could he not pick up cards for revival, but he also couldn’t create cards, only avoid attention as a lone wolf in a corner, trying to survive and rank.

In this situation, getting a top ten rank in this match was lucky enough, as for the 功德 rewards, that will be considered in the next game!

This player thought so too, so he didn’t want to play anymore, planning to ambush a random player when other teams moved into the circle, then just die.

Unexpectedly, he ran into a treater, got directly discovered by the treater, almost got wiped out in a blink with the vision and micro-lock combo.

Luckily, this treater’s parameters weren’t set high, and he played rather foolishly, relying on cheats, and got recklessly killed by a high delay grenade, achieving the Slaying Immortals achievement!

After killing the treat, this bloodied player got wiped out by passing teams.

In this game, he only killed one person, didn’t rank in the top ten, truly pitiful and miserable...

But when he exited the game and switched back to "Cultivation Fantasy," he was surprised to find that after killing the treat, completing ’Slaying Immortals’, Heavenly Dao directly awarded him 100 功德 points.

"How many?"

Chen Ba scratched his ear, incredulously asked, "Are you kidding me, 100 功德 points?"

"That’s right, it’s exactly 100!"

Lu nodded and then handed the phone to Ba: "That’s what he said himself, and he provided a screenshot, it’s indeed 100 功德 points."

Chen Ba took the phone and saw the screenshot this player shared, including the system notification bar message and the personal information panel showing 100 功德 points.

"Why give so much?"

"Because he killed a treater, that’s the only reasonable explanation. Beyond that, I can’t think of any reason why Heavenly Dao would give a huge 功德 reward of 100 points..."

Killing a treater has such high rewards?

Initially, Chen Ba thought, wouldn’t this be too disproportionate? After all, 100 功德 points in "Cultivation Fantasy" holds great value!

But on second thought, ’Slaying Immortals’ in FPS competitive games is definitely a difficult task. Players achieving this are not many, so while the reward is absurd, it is understandable.

This is not the focus...

The focus is how the Heavenly Dao Program detected that the opponent was using cheats, hence awarding huge 功德 rewards to the Slaying Immortals player.

What’s going on?

The Heavenly Dao Program has powerful anti-cheat detection capabilities, able to identify who is cheating in a game?

...

The powerful Heavenly Dao Program in "Cultivation Fantasy" indeed brought enormous surprises to the players.

Yes, surprises!

Most "Cultivation Fantasy" players are troubled by insufficient 功德, trying every possible method to earn it, with what strategies and tutorials posted every day.

Yet, 功德 is still not enough.

After all, in "Cultivation Fantasy," the significance of 功德 is too great, having enough 功德 can make one even more formidable than the gold-showering masters!

Just as everyone was troubled, suddenly, news broke that the Heavenly Dao Program hangs in the background, allowing 功德 farming by playing other games...

For players troubled by 功德 insufficiency, this is like receiving rain after a long drought!

What, privacy violation?

The game already made you agree to the "xx Privacy License" by default before start-up, didn’t you know?

If you’re worried, just exit and uninstall the game.

Anyway, after exiting the game, the Heavenly Dao Program’s process automatically terminates, so there’s no privacy violation issue.

For those obsessed with "Cultivation Fantasy," rather than fretting over privacy issues, it’s more practical to think about how to make the most of this precious time and earn more 功德!

Brothers, hurry up, what if in a few days Ba fixes this bug and there’s no 功德 to farm anymore?

What’s more...

Because of worry that the bug would be fixed, leaving no loopholes to exploit, players started reciting Ba’s lines even before Tianba Studio made a statement.

"Don’t talk nonsense, is this a game bug? This is obviously a mechanism painstakingly designed by Ba, right Ba?"

Chen Ba: "..."

For players proactively defending him, even quoting classic lines, he genuinely was speechless.

Please, these players have said all his lines, what else can he say?

Oh right, right, you’re absolutely right!

Players proactively provided a way out, and it seemed like almost 90% of the players opposed fixing the bug, so Chen Ba just went along with it and acknowledged the situation.

There’s no choice!

He couldn’t deny it; if he did, he would have to fix the bug. But if he were capable, he wouldn’t have caused the Cow Herding Simulator joke in the first place.

"That’s right, this is game mechanics!"

To preserve his dignity, Chen Ba had to fabricate a set of explanations, emphasizing that "Cultivation Fantasy" is the most "inclusive" MMO game ever.

What is inclusivity?

Of course, it refers to "Cultivation Fantasy" players, who normally don’t have to play this game, just hang it in the background and allocate time to other games.

Isn’t this inclusive enough?

Other MMO games exhaust efforts on "daily activities" and "check-in rewards," fearing players will leave them.

"Cultivation Fantasy" is different; it emphasizes player freedom.

Play whatever game you love, don’t consider "Cultivation Fantasy’s" feelings, just hang the game in the taskbar and occasionally switch back to peek.

To be honest, even Chen Ba was moved by himself.

Sparing no effort to make an MMO game, but ending up sending players to competitors, encouraging them to spend more time playing other games instead of lounging around "Cultivation Fantasy" without direction.

How high is this level of moral integrity?

Looking at the entire MMO game circle, is there any game more selfless than "Cultivation Fantasy"? Looking across the entire gaming circle, is there any game creator more great than Chen Ba?
