游戏内最宝贵的资源 / THE MOST VALUABLE RESOURCE IN THE GAME

V2要来了,但是,我们是否在V1中学到了什么呢?

在游戏里,有小型战争、大型战争和伟大的战争。有颠覆与反颠覆。有各国政党间的 政治斗争。有温暖的话语和猛烈的抨击。有漏洞、暂时被禁、永久被禁和黑客攻击。有穷人 也有富人。有真实或虚假的婴儿潮。



游戏开发者选择了一条许多人都认为错误的道路。这是个悲伤的事实,但我也同意这些人。 有许多别的方法可以改进这个游戏,不用损害休闲玩家的人数,而仅仅改进活跃和超活跃玩 家的游戏体验。

但是,有一点,我们(许多玩家)没有学会,这个游戏中最重要的资源是玩家。不是 那些铁啊,油啊或者什么领土,而是那些为了各种原因 来到这个游戏中的人们。

看看周围,你能看到许多人有着大量的金钱——虚拟的金钱。你能看到许多人有着无上的政 治权力——虚拟的权力,而这些权力往往又用来追求——虚拟的金钱。有了这些权力和金钱 ,你应该将它们用在提高其他玩家对这个游戏的兴趣,无论你是花在了开发者或管理员的行 动上。而他们大多数人却没能实践这条道路。没有其他玩家,他们自己其实——什么都不是 。他们的权力毫无意义,他们的金钱也毫无意义。

积极的一面则是,在全世界,有许多人真正了解,更强/更有钱的玩家应该帮助其他 玩家。不,我并不算其中之一。我并非有钱人,我只是想点燃那星星之火。在全世界都存在 着的星火——慈善和友谊的星火。是的,这听起来就像是愚蠢的环球小姐演讲一样,但是看 看你周围,你能告诉我,我是错的吗?.



那么,在V1即将结束之际,我想要感谢在过去三周的活动中向我们捐款的所有人,有了这 些捐款,我们购买了上千支枪,帮助了110多个新玩家,让他们感受到他们是作为团体的 一份子。
我想要感谢全世界从事相同事业的所有捐助人。

对于那些自私的只为自己敛财的人,我并不想说“诅咒你”,我只会说:
“朋友,你没有理解这个游戏的真义。当它们还有用时,抱着你的金币享受吧。”




附:如往常一样,报表将于周六发布。这也许是我在V1的最后一篇文章。那么,大家V2 见!




V2 is coming, but have we learned anything in V1?

There were small wars, big wars and great wars. There were TOs, ATOs. There were political struggles between political parties in each e-country. There were nice chit chats and swearing/insults. There were bugs, temporary and permanent bans and hacking events. There were poor people and rich guys. There were true and bogus baby booms.



Developers of the game chosen the path that lots of people found wrong. Its sad fact, and i have to agree with them. There are lots of other ways to improve this game, without harming population of casual players, but improving it for active and very active players.

But one fact, that we (many of players) haven't learned is the fact that the most valuable resource in this game are the PLAYERS. Not some iron, oil or whatever region, but simple guys that play this game for different reasons.

If you check around, you can see lots of people with loads of money...virtual money. You can see people with lots of political power... virtual power, used in the most cases to get again - virtual gold. With power and money goes the fact that you have to used it to make other players this game interesting, no matter on the moves of developers or admins. They, the most of them, failed on that path. Because, without those other players, they themselves are in truth - nothing. Their power would mean nothing, their gold would mean nothing.

Bright side of this is that there are people, all over the world, that actually know and feel that others should be helped by stronger/richer players. And, no, i m not counting myself in those. I m not rich, and i wanted to just light the flame. Flame that exist all over the world - flame of charity and friendship. Ye, this is speech at level of some idiotic Miss Universe candidate, but look around yourself and tell me if I m wrong.



So, on the end of this V1, I would like thank you all those that donated money during this 3 weeks of action which gathered over 1k weapons and helped more than 110 e-babies to feel as part of this community.
I would like to thank you to all those donors around the world that done same thing.

And i don't want to say "curses upon you" to all those that found joy in gathering virtual money for themselves, only this:
"Guys, you missed the point of this game. Enjoy that gold while it lasts."




PS. Listing, as usual, will be published at sunday. Prolly the last one in this nice V1. See ya in V2.
