???
Ten thousand chat members were all dumbfounded.
After a moment of shock, they slowly reacted: Orange Juice's livestream room had been banned.
Refreshing the dynamic feed once more, sure enough, Orange Juice had already posted a new dynamic--
"Brothers, my livestream room got banned!! Damn it, Dream Builder, are you fucking kidding me? You didn't say a single word about something as huge as clothes explosion in your preview trailer?
Not a single word?????
Are you playing with me??!!!"
Attached to this dynamic was a screenshot. Right in the middle of the livestream screen was a striking warning in white text on a red background:
[The theme, plot, and elements of this game violate regulations (pornography and vulgarity). The livestream room will be blocked for 1 hour.] [Please cherish your livestream room.] --The chat members immediately found it hilarious: "Hahaha, from great joy comes sorrow!"
"How long did he stay in the game total? Was it even five minutes?"
"Frost Snow Project 5-minute speedrun by Orange Juice!"
"To be fair, this game is indeed dangerous."
"Dangerous my ass, blame Orange Juice himself for not reading the patch notes. The changes overview heavily emphasized the clothes explosion effect, and Dream Builder even added a clothes explosion switch. You can disable this feature yourself in the settings."
"Disable my ass! Turn it on, turn it all on for me ruthlessly!"
"I feel like this is going to trap a lot of text-blind streamers to death."
Orange Juice popped up one last time in the comment section: "Brothers, see you in an hour!"
After that, he closed the webpage and silently went to shed tears.
The vision he had imagined of explosive traffic, skyrocketing followers, and making a week's worth of money in a single day vanished like a shattered shadow along with the death of his livestream room.
The only circumstance that could make him feel a bit better was--
He was not the sole victim.
Streamers who would skip the character new outfits, login benefits, and check-in benefits to read the changes overview at the very first moment were truly few and far between.
Consequently, streamers falling victim to this new mechanic of clothes explosion were practically going down in droves.
Even Tao Huo, an old man who was already married, had a child, and had to be mindful of his image, fell victim to this mechanic.
--For the sake of personal image and livestream room safety, he had specifically chosen Bai Wei, the character with the most normal clothes, among the eight reworked characters.
Bai Wei's sexy points primarily stemmed from her figure being too full, making her clothes look small.
Along with the contrast brought by her conservative personality and sexy figure.
The degree of exposure of her new outfit was the lowest among all the reworked characters.
Meanwhile, the review standards of various platforms did not care about a character's personality; as long as the figure was not exposed, they would not interfere.
With this in mind, using her for streaming was naturally the safest choice.
--It should have been like that.
Until Tao Huo controlled Bai Wei and got sprayed with a mouthful of mucus by a Corrupted Slime out in the field.
Then, the screen suddenly slowed down.
The sailor suit on Bai Wei's upper body was rapidly dissolved by the mucus, scattering into the air.
Along with it, a small portion of the pink lace bra underneath was also dissolved, making the cleavage between her plump breasts appear even deeper.
Tao Huo and the 8,000 viewers in his livestream room widened their eyes in astonishment.
The next second, the livestream room went down.
Only Tao Huo was left staring at the red ban warning, dumbfounded.
Today practically turned into a disaster day for ACG Game streamers.
Those being sanctioned were not just streamers who ignored the announcement and were sent away by a surprise attack from the clothes explosion system.
Those bolder streamers with more aggressive character-viewing angles were also randomly sanctioned by the platform.
--Streamers and viewers alike could not figure out the specific penalty scale, knowing only that some people were sanctioned while others were not, so it seemed as if it happened completely at random.
Viewers found it thrilling and exciting.
Streamers, on the other hand, panicked one after another.
It wasn't until enough people fell into the trap that the clothes explosion switch was finally brought to everyone's attention.
Aside from a tiny handful of brave souls, streamers scrambled to turn it off.
And among these rare brave souls was the largest Frost Snow Project UP host on the entire P Station--
Heroic Sniper
However, his reasoning was rather unique.
Generally speaking, when netizens attached a game to the front of a UP host's name, it often meant that this person made their living off that game.
The main content of their daily livestreams and video productions was also this game.
Heroic Sniper was precisely like this.
He could practically be called the last surviving video guide producer for Frost Snow Project.
His total number of followers was merely 160,000—quite fitting for Frost Snow Project's previously half-dead state.
Sniper was unlike those new players who came swarming in blindly to join the fun.
He didn't rush to check out the characters' new clothes, instead opening the changes overview at the very first moment to see if there was anything new that hadn't been mentioned in yesterday's announcement.
"The game version number changed from Frost Snow Project 1.1 to Frost Snow Project 1.0re. I really didn't notice that detail."
"Maintenance compensation, claimed."
"Login benefits and check-in benefits, nice, claimed."
"First top-up double reset, extremely nice, but I have a full collection of characters, so I don't need it for now."
"Character appearance, skill, and positioning adjustments, yesterday's announcement mentioned those too."
"Male character rework compensation, hahaha, they're giving away quite a lot."
"Hold on a second."
Sniper closed the changes interface and opened his own character collection to take a look. Sure enough, both male characters who had entered the character pool had turned into female characters.
--"Frost Snow Project" had been online for 4 months, and there were only two male characters total who had entered the pool.
One was Fei Yun, who wore a sleeveless short-sleeve shirt paired with lace-trimmed pumpkin shorts.
The other was Tao Tao, who wore a star hairpin, leather collar, lace bandeau, short shorts, and white silk stockings paired with leg rings.
Fei Yun was the gender swap of Yun Fei, while Tao Tao was the gender swap of Tao Huo.
For new players who had never played this game or had just downloaded Frost Snow Project after watching yesterday's preview trailer, it might not evoke any intuitive feeling.
But Heroic Sniper's audience here consisted mostly of veteran players.
Upon seeing these two fellows, everyone cracked up on the spot:
"Hahaha, no way, Brother Yun, did you go on a trip to Siam?"
"Did you stop by Baekje along the way too? Even the scars on your face are gone, this little face is so tender!"
"Don't you say, is this the charm of a trap?"
"No time to lose, today it's just the two of you!"
"Brothers, hold on! This is a transgender person!" Sniper hurriedly tried to persuade them.
A captain replied: "Then how about we swap you in?"
Sniper: "Sorry to bother you, carry on with what you're doing!"
"Let's continue looking at the changes."
The chat members instantly burst into roaring laughter.
But very soon, something even more hilarious happened--
"Holy shit! The character UP pool probability increased from 50% to 75%? Awesome!"
"The weapon pool won't off-banner anymore?"
"Your mother! I previously got off-banner with 6 Sniper Crossbows! 6 of them! Over 400 draws!!"
"Dream Builder, did you hear that? Over 400 draws!!"
"It's 400! Not 40!!"
Sniper opened his inventory and showed the chat members the six five-star golden crossbows in his bag, his voice sounding like weeping blood.
Yet the other veteran players in the livestream room merely cheered with joy.
After all, pulling cards in the future would save a lot of liquid gold.
"Since you have such a great mechanic to add to the game, why couldn't you do it two months earlier?"
Sniper was filled with indignation, complaining for quite a while before continuing to read the next item:--Brand new combat mechanism: Battle Damage
Depending on the material of the character's clothing, when suffering from specific types of attacks, a clothes explosion effect will occur, and the character's clothing will sustain damage.
This mechanism only affects visual effects and does not affect the character's actual defense and status resistance.
Players can choose to enable or disable this feature themselves in Settings - Game.
(Can choose to completely disable, or disable close-up animations only) (The default state is enabled)--Sniper's eyes lit up as he immediately left the city to test it out.
Then, the livestream room earned a 10-minute ban.
Yet ten minutes later, Sniper resurrected in a triumphant return to resume broadcasting, still without disabling the clothes explosion system, having only turned off the [Animation Close-up].
The chat members asked him why he was courting death.
Sniper's awareness was maxed out: "As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who goes to hell."
"I am the last guide producer of the old Frost Snow Project. Now that Frost Snow Project has entered a new era, of course I must also produce guides for the new era!"
"Watch me grind out a full-character clothes explosion guide for you at top speed!"
