[Comprehensive British and American] Daily life of a data balancer

Glass Slag's blockbuster this year, the much-anticipated multiplayer online tactical arena game was finally officially released today. It will be released later than the provisionally approved Hearthstone.

Different from the current limit during the α and β tests, this time the glass slag is directly open to the world simultaneously. Its powerful background server terminal failed to withstand the influx of players, and had to be shut down for maintenance for an hour.

However, this little episode did not lower the players' expectations. On the contrary, the game company was full of sincerity, apologized for the emergency maintenance and gave all players who participated in the pre-order gift certificates of three self-selected heroes.

In addition to the 16 heroes that have already played in the test server, this update has added four heroes: Little Hornet (Assassination), Ant-Man (Professional), Martian Manhunter (Assassination) and Zatanna (Assist), And two new series of skins have been launched in the mall, including Cowboy Sheriff, Steam Iron Man, Widow of the Bar Owner, Emerald Knight, Doll Grid, and Wonder Countess.

Of course, as Li Min said in the previous interview, there are some modifications to Batman in the game patch package, including but not limited to the passive damage increase of a knife cut and the shortening of the time limit of the smoke bomb ultimate move.When the patch information first came out, such a huge change made everyone agree that Batman may have offended the production team, at least because he killed his father and wife to be treated so inhumanely by the balancer.

But when they entered the game, they found that there was a krypton gold skin pack in the mall, which included six color-matched legendary attribute 'Coal Lamp Batman' skins. Hero, people's perception of Batman has changed rapidly, from being sent by the production team for phone bills to being the father of the game company.

But because of Li Min's coquettish operation, the master could only smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

"This skin can make Arkham's psychopaths... calm down for at least a month?" Li Min sank into the boss's chair, and was in a state of collapse after working overtime just like her employees.

Recently, due to the operation of this game and the temporary addition of new game plans, they have been spinning for a long time. Now everyone is in a state of fatigue, and even Li Min doesn't want to experience the game as soon as it goes online.

"I don't think it's possible, let's hang on for half a month." Barbara lay on her desk and replied weakly. As a person from Gotham, her speech was quite informative.

"Come on, half a month is half a month." Charlie buried his face on the table and made a muffled voice, already very hopeless, "Boss, we've only been dying for a few months now. If it is still at this level in the future, I will apply for resignation."

"No, from now until the carnival, our plan is to maintain the existing game and promote a new game for the end of the year."

"What about the new game signed with the Justice League?" Kyle raised his head and asked, "Has the outline been given by Wayne Enterprises?"

"No, it was sent back for revision." Li Min waved his hand with a look of irritability.

——I'm not surprised at all.

Kyle thought indifferently, and at the same time, in order to pretend that he still cared a little bit, he continued to ask: "Then what are you going to do? Change the script?"

"You don't know how to do business at first glance." Li Min gave his friend a contemptuous look, and replied plausibly, "Let's procrastinate first, and then we will release the publicity after the carnival. If the players respond well—according to my estimate The response will definitely be good-the Justice League will not be able to say anything, this is called cutting first and then playing, raw rice cooked cooked rice.

Kyle: "...you will be divested by Wayne Enterprises if you do this, let me tell you."

"No." Li Min is very optimistic about this. "All staff will have a three-day vacation starting tomorrow. Just make sure that someone is on duty every day. You can discuss it yourself. Don't call me if there is no end-of-the-world thing."

In the end, as a company owner who is considerate of his employees, Li Min waved his hand and got up from his chair, ready to go back to his office to grab a bag and take the lead home to rest.

When she first opened the office door, Li Min didn't feel that something was wrong until the kitten she brought to the company to accompany everyone to work overtime jumped out of the dark and knocked over a limited edition of Spiderman number 01. , and then climbed her leg to beg for a hug, she felt a little problem.

First bent down to pick up the cat, she looked in the direction where the cat ran out and at the same time reached out to press the light, so the child who was sitting on the sofa hidden in the shadow of the curtain appeared.

Li Min first took a look at the sitting posture of this child with his legs crossed, which should not be the sitting posture that a child of this age should have, and then he began to look squarely at the red, green and black uniform that this child was wearing, "Robin?"

The child didn't answer, but he jumped up from the sofa. When he stood up straight, Li Min raised his eyebrows in surprise when he saw his carrot-headed stature: "Has Batman got a new assistant?"

"I'm Robin." Obviously dissatisfied with Li Min's words, the child corrected him in a bad tone, "This is the only one with no branches."

"With all due respect, several of your seniors may not think so."

Li Min didn't hear the child's answer clearly, but only vaguely heard words like 'fake', and she felt that even if Batman wanted to spread the word that he changed his assistant, it shouldn't be his turn to be notified personally "So you Is there anything you can do with me?"

Robin sneered at the question, and threw a bag from behind, "You're welcome."

Li Min took it, and the kitten jumped out of his arms and jumped towards the person opposite. What surprised Li Min was that the other party didn't reject the kitten's overtures, and caught the little animal steadily and doted on it. Drew allowed her to climb onto his shoulders. , Er Li Min looked into the bag by himself, and found that there were several heavy firepower inside, then quickly tied the bag, raised his head and asked in shock, "What is this?"

"The equipment of the Ten Rings, I happened to pass by when they planted explosives outside." Robin snorted. "Your defense system is terrible."

"We are just an ordinary game production company, not some front fortification, thank you." Li Min answered him, and returned the bag to him, "A few geese are enough for security."

"How many geese?" Robin didn't take the bag, but repeated suspiciously, feeling that Li Min's answer was very offensive to him.

"What are you looking down on geese?" Li Min was upset this time. She pinched her waist and looked down at the child. "Don't underestimate the geese. Our geese have been professionally trained to fight a scarecrow or a penguin!"

——It turns out that these scumbags are all ashamed and thrown out of Gotham.

Robin made a note in the small notebook in his heart and decided to clean up this group of embarrassing things when he had the opportunity, and asked at the same time: "You say you are just an ordinary game company?"

"Yup?"

Robin was shocked. He looked at the innocent Li Min and asked in disbelief, "How did you know my identity?"

"...My ex-boyfriend was the Supreme Sorcerer, and my current boyfriend is Victor Doom. Do you think they don't know who you are under the mask? It's just out of morality, everyone doesn't say anything." Li Min spread his hands , without hesitation, put all the responsibility on the boyfriends, after all, the existence of boyfriends is just to blame.

— Then they didn't tell you, do you have some bulls and snakes and gods under your hands!

While thinking about the information he dug up in Batman's database, Robin looked at the innocent Li Min with the sympathy of a fool. He guessed that maybe her clever boyfriends It is to protect the three views of this ordinary girl from being impacted.

"If there is nothing else, please dispose of these dangerous items before you leave, thank you." Li Min turned around, looked for her bag on the desk, and was about to end this conversation, but there was a sudden rush of wind from behind Her movements were cut off, and the instinctive reaction to crisis response trained in heaven and hell took over. The diamond-like hard barrier covered her arms, and the blade slashed, leaving a harsh sound.

When Li Min turned her head, Damian had already taken two steps back to a safe distance for close combat—of course, this distance is not considered a distance for mages—she waved her hand, and the diamond-skinned The cover faded, "I hope you don't draw a knife here again. The furniture in this room is all solid wood, and the surrounding area is also limited. It's a pity to chop it up."

"And this is what you care about?" Despite this, Damian still kept the knife as he said.

"Yes, that's what I'm concerned about. Since if I didn't have some special life-saving means, you might have lost an arm to my life now. I don't think I should thank you, but my bottles and cans can't be saved. There is no way to save her life." Li Min's words are of course exaggerated, the feeling of Damian's knife slashing across her arm is very slight, which shows that he has some leeway when making a move, even if he judges wrong, he will only Minor scratches occur.

"No." Damian didn't seem disturbed by this, but was full of confidence, "If you were just an ordinary person, Doom would definitely give you insurance measures.

Li Min was shocked. She found that what the child said made sense: "Is it too late for me to say that this is the insurance protection measure Dum gave me?"

"It's too late." But the child interrupted her fantasy mercilessly, and narrowed his eyes with a bad expression. "Ordinary company?"

"What are you doing? Ordinary human beings with superpowers are also ordinary people. I abide by the law, love my job, never evade taxes, and do charity work. What's wrong with using small spells for self-protection? Mutants are not willing to reveal their identities, I just I don’t want to get into trouble.” She was so emotional that she almost wiped her tears with a tissue, “In such a big company, there are more than 100 ordinary employees outside who work hard every day to make money to support their families, how is it unusual?!”

Damian who never expected the other party to be a showman: ...

So Li Min took the opportunity to propose: "Let's just pretend that those few seconds didn't happen, and then go back to our respective houses, shall we?"

"No." Damian replied categorically. This person is on Batman's monitoring list. As Batman's assistant and son, he must firmly believe in revolution and must not be that traitor.

"Then I can only tell your parents that you are threatening the personal safety of ordinary people by breaking into private houses." Li Min changed his face in a second, fully showing what a woman's face is called June's day.

"You don't dare." Damian sneered, he was not afraid of this, and suing Batman also meant that her own identity would be exposed, so he didn't believe that the other party would be so stupid as to make a self-destruct truck.

Unexpectedly, Li Min took out his mobile phone, broadcast a number with an ugly capitalist smile, and showed it to Damian.

As a smart child, Damian recognized at a glance that this number belonged to the loyal old butler of the Wayne family. Under his surprised gaze, Li Min connected the phone and said triumphantly, " Alfie? In this way, regarding the script of Arkham 2, I suddenly have an idea for a new branch ending, and I will send it to you right away, can you check your mailbox later. "

This time, Li Min's familiar and skilled tone finally made Damian a little uneasy.
