突然唤起了我的回忆,似曾相识
[quote:c86bc4c566] 在游戏推出的半年后,第一个99级的战网人物终于出现了,他就是来自欧洲服务器的GERBarb,就像其它国外站点所说的那样,到达这个顶峰的道路是极其漫长而艰辛的,竞争也是非常激烈的,第二名和第三名和他相差无几!让我们祝贺GERBarb成为第一个普通模式下的NO.1吧![/quote]

四、访谈录
Here is an in-depth interview of the GERBarb team. Questions by Diabloii
.net, answers from the people who play GERBarb. Many thanks to Flatline, the
team leader, for compiling and translating them all for us.
o 游戏进行与团队工作:
问:请问这一切进行了多久?从人物建立到现在(2000年十二月中旬)
答:BERBarb出生于十一月五日2:30pm MET。
问:从一开始时是否就有计划 - 即它将成为一个团队的一部分并将达到不可思议的
高级别?
答:是的,他一开始就计划为一个团队人物。我非常欣赏由俄国人引入的组成国家
团队的想法。这给DIABLO II带来了崭新的一面。我们想要为RUSSBarb建立一个挑战者,
无论从名字上还是从其他方面。
问:他是不是用一堆非常好的装备和在许多人的帮助下开始的?或者他一开始只是
个人的工作,直至到达高级别才开始有其他人的帮助?
答:他是带着一堆相当好的装备开始的。从第一个小时开始,BERBarb就有一个团队
在身后支持。
问:你们一天通常能有多少进展?最多的一天又有多少?
答:每天的进展各有不同。我们有几个周末玩得相当棒。有一次我们足足得到了三
亿点经验。我们每天大约杀HD 160-180次。我猜如果一切都非常顺利的话,一个团队能
做到每天杀250次。
问:一个HELL游戏大约用时多久,从其他人开始清CS开始算,直至BERBarb进来杀死
DIABLO?
答:这也是各有不同的。一个好的PAL/AMA团队能在5-7分钟内清空CS。如果第三个
玩家能在同时找到EXP SHRINE(经验祭坛)就更好了。但由于我们有多个游戏在同时进行
,如果一切顺利的话我们能做到每10分钟杀3次。
问:GERBarb是不是有时也进来帮助清空Chaos,或者他只是来杀DIABLO?
答:GERBarb的成长与常人一样。在八十几级之前,他象常人一样从NORMAL打到HEL
L,从ACT1打到4,不停地杀IZUAL、清扫火焰河。我们只是尽力帮助让他有能力玩8人游
戏。从那以后,他就转换角色,只杀DIABLO。
问:有多少个人在实际上控制GERBarb?
答:自从GERBarb出生之后,我们有大约15个人玩过他。大约5-6人经常玩他。
问:玩GERBarb的人和他的支持者们在现实生活中有没有接触?比如说在同一房间或
者游戏吧中?
答:没有。大多数人只是在这项工程中才互相认识的。有些人会通过电话讨论时间
安排。
问:我们常常听人问起这些支持者,因为似乎他们才是这项工作的关键所有。你能
说说看什么类型的角色能这么快地帮你清空HELL CS?
答:回答很简单:所有的角色:-) AMA/PAL组合是清空CS的最佳组合。女巫则是最好
的直接帮助(静电场)。男巫也能单独完成所有的工作。但角色之分是次要的,关键在于
要同时准备尽可能多的游戏。
问:支持者通常是普通的玩家?其中有没有排前几十名的?
答:支持者分为两类:一类是常常支持的人;另一类只是有几天一直在帮忙,然后
就突然消失了。有时我们能遇上排前几十名的高级别玩家。其中乐趣无穷。
o 升级进度:
问:在95级以上,每杀一次DIABLO能拿多少经验?我是指在6到8人的多人游戏中
答:不是很清楚。我们从98级开始,顶着EXP-SHRINE时每次能拿47万左右。
问:GERBarb死过多少次?最后一次是什么级别?
答:死过很多次:-) 几乎每次都是由于LAG。最后一次是在97级刚开始的时候。
(略去关于HC的一个问题)
问:这一切有意思吗?或者觉得没完没了地杀DIABLO很单调?
答:我要说,这不再是玩游戏。这是一种竞技运动。有的时候的确很难调动自己,
觉得把同样的事一遍又一遍地重复很痛苦。但是,总的来说还是很有趣。
(略于一个问题)
o 对RUSSBarb及其他顶级玩家的评论
问:有谣传说,有人来干扰你们的游戏或者RUSSBarb的游戏。有些人试图PK支持者
甚至这些顶级玩家本人,或者至少减慢其进度。在论坛中,有人说GERBarb的团队在攻击
RUSSBarb,或者相反。你们在游戏中是不是遇到过干扰?
答:是曾经有过干扰。我们这两个团队都无法完全控制自己的所有支持者,肯定双
方都有些人不能完全理解这场竞赛的意义。在GERBarb这一方,我们尽可能地让所有人明
白这一点:我们不希望任何人以任何手段干扰或伤害RUSSBarb及其支持者。
问:你们可曾与RUSSBarb在同一个游戏中见过面?
答:我们不曾在同一个游戏中抢经验。
问:你们可曾想过与RUSSBarb决斗在比如说98级?谁赢了就因对方的经验损失而在
升级大战中占到极大优势?
答:不。因为这将意味着拿数十位支持者的许多个小时的成果去冒险。
(略去一个问题)
o 装备与策略:
问:在高级别中你们的装备换过吗?
答:装备不断地在换...不过并不频繁。
问:你们是自己找装备,还是从帮助者或支持者手中拿到的?
答:几乎所有的装备都是从帮助者和支持者手中来的。DIABLO掉出的东西可以自由
抢夺。这在某种意义上说是给支持者的回报。清空CS并不容易,许多支持者都是用80级
以上的人物,死掉一次都要损失很多经验。
问:用这个人物来GAMBLE吗?因为它能赌到+2项链?
答:非常少。抢经验重要的多:-)
问:杀了这么多次HELL DIABLO,得到过好东西吗?象+2项链或其他类似的东东?
答:DIABLO老是掉垃圾 ;-)
大概每杀300次能掉一个好东东。象是265的LANCE或者非常好的PRISMATIC项链带+1
8STR之类。
How long has this been going on? From the time the character was created
until now. (Mid December 2000.)
GERBarb was born on November, 5th at 2:30 pm MET. So right now he is 43
days and about 18 hours old.
Was there a plan starting off? That he\'d be part of a team and would get
to an incredibly-high level?
Yes, he was planned as a team char. I very appreciated the concept of a
national team char introduced by the Russian team. This put a whole new dime
nsion to Diablo II. We wanted to build up a challenger to RUSSBarb and by na
ming and setting him up rather equal to RUSSBarb we wanted to set a sign to
other nations to join the contest.
Did he start off with a lot of really good equipment and help, or was it
more solo work until he got to a higher level and people started to help ou
t more then?
He started out with a rather good equipment. Especially one of the found
ers had rather good stuff for GERBarb. But most of the others spent some ite
ms too. From the first hour GERBarb had a team behind him.
How many runs a day do you do, and what\'s the most ever in a day?
It greatly differs. We had some great weekends. One of them got us almos
t 300 million exp. So we made about 160-180 kills per day then. I guess if e
verything works absolutely perfect a team should be able to make up to 250 k
ills/ day.
About how long does a hell run take, from the other players starting to
kill stuff on the way to the CS, to the time GERBarb comes in and kills Diab
lo?
This also varies quite a bit. A good Paladin/Amazon team is able to clea
n CS in about 5-7 minutes. If a third player finds an exp shrine in the mean
time and the team char joins with other players directly after CS is ready,
a complete game would take about 8-10 minutes. But since we have many simult
aneous games that are prepared it\'s difficult to say. If all goes well we ca
n make about 3 kills in 10 minutes.
Does GERBarb ever come in and help go through the Chaos, or just comes i
n to kill Diablo?
GERBarb went up like everybody else. Until the mid-80s he he made up his
way from normal to hell, act1-4, killing Izual and clearing River of Flame.
We just tried to make sure he could play in 8-player-games. Since then he s
witched completely to only kill Diablo.
How many people have actually controlled GERBarb, and how many do so on
a regular basis?
We have about 15 people who played GERBarb since his "birth". About 5-6
play him regularly
Are the people playing GERBarb and his support in contact in real life? Like
in the same room, a gaming cafe or something like that?
No, most people got known to each other through the project. Some of use
telephone to discuss the latest occurrences.
We\'ve had people ask about the support team a lot, since it seems that t
hey are doing most of the work at this point. Can you give an idea of what t
ypes of characters usually are helping to clear out the CS on hell/hell so q
uickly? Sorceress, Necromancers, etc?
Simple answer: every class :-)
Ama/Pala is best for clearing CS, Sorcs are great for helping GERBarb (s
tatic), Necros can prepare games completely alone etc. But regardless of spe
cial functions most of the time the only thing that counts is to prepare as
much games as possible.
The support team is the same people usually? And are any of them in the
top ranked players?
The support team can be divided into 2 groups: One consists of players w
ho support very often. The other consists of people that show up for some da
ys, helping out and disappearing as fast as they came. Sometimes we had top
ranked players showing up in GERBarb games and even helping out. We had a lo
t of fun.
Leveling Progress:
About how much experience do you get for killing Diablo past Clvl 95? I
assume in a multi-player game, 6 or 8 people always.
Don\'t know exactly. Should be about 470k in an 8-player-game with exp-sh
rine since we reached lvl98.
How many times has GERBarb died? And what level was the last time?
Quite often :-) Almost everytime it occured due to lag. Last time was at
the beginning of level 97.
Can you see anyone doing this sort of teamwork play technique with Hardc
ore
characters, and getting a character to the mid 90\'s or higher?
The main problem would be finding enough supporters risking their HC cha
rs :-) Also it would getting more and more difficult because every supporter
death means one supporter less for the HC team char.
Can you see anyone getting to such a high level playing solo, just joini
ng big MP games and doing the CS and killing Diablo w/o a support team?
To be honest: No. Two points:
a) Most open MP games are not completely filled longer than 1-2 minutes.
People jump in and leave shortly thereafter.
b) getting killed in levels >95 is very hard for a team char. Many hours
of work of many people is wasted. Getting killed with a solo char would mea
n to loose the work of weeks because he will never be able to get even close
to a kill rate team chars have. I think at approximately level 95 there wou
ld be some sort a natural barrier for a solo char because he would loose the
exp he got due to a lag death. Getting exp, loosing them, getting exp, loos
ing them etc.
Is it fun? Or bored of the endless Diablo kills and just going on to try and
get to 99?
I would say it isn\'t playing a game anymore. It\'s kind of sport. Sometim
es it\'s hard to motivate yourself and it really can be pain doing the same t
hing over and over again. But nevertheless it\'s still fun.
Do you think you\'ll make it to 99, or will you get too bored, or if GerB
arb or someone else gets there first will you give up? [Note: They already h
ave, from 97 the Friday we sent out the questions to 99 by the Tuesday we go
t them back and posted them.]
RUSSBarb or GERBarb. One of them will become the first level 99 char. Wh
o of them will it make? No idea...With more then 3 billion exp points both c
hars are close to about 10 million exps. The last 3 days both lead the ladde
r for a while each day! If RUSSBarb wins, we will complete level 99 but I gu
ess it would take more time them...the motivation would suffer.
Regarding RUSSBarb and other top players:
There are rumors and accusations of people interfering with your games a
nd with RUSSBarb\'s games. That people have been bothering or trying to PK th
e helpers and/or the big chars, or just slow them down. In forum posts peopl
e say that the GERBarb team is attacking RUSSBarb, and vice versa.
Have you had interference in your games at times? Have you heard of it i
n RUSSBarb\'s games? And if so, do you think either of the main teams for the
characters is involved in sabotaging the other, or is it just various indep
endent players who want to get involved or make a name for themselves?
There have been interferences. Neither team can control everything their
supporters do, and there are definitely some guys on both sides who yet did
n\'t understand the meaning of the whole competition. At the GERBarb team we
are trying our best to make our point of view absolutely clear: We don\'t wan
t anyone to spam, annoy or harm RUSSBarb and his supporters in any way.
There also have been some postings regarding this manner in the news of
the GERBarb site. On the other hand I remember some words from RUSSBarb supp
orters saying if pking is possible then it is part of the game and the conte
st. I don\'t exactly know the official position of the RUSSBarb team to this
topic. Plannings to PK GERBarb are (or have been) discussed publicly in RUSS
Barb\'s message board.
Ever played in the same game with RUSSBarb?
Both chars never played for experience in the same game.
Would you consider a duel with GERBarb if you were both say lvl 98, and
whoever won would have many hours advantage in level\'ing up, from the exp lo
ss for the other?
No, because it would mean to risk hours and hours of work of dozens of s
upporters.
Think any other team-played characters could appear now and move up quickly
enough to catch either of you 2 on the way to 99?
Not any more. ot-sun of Asia ladder levelled extremely fast for a while
but they seem to have trouble the last days. I highly doubt someone will be
able to catch up now that both chars have reached level 98.
Equipment and strats:
Has your equipment changed much over the higher levels? Or been using th
e same stuff for a long time?
Equipment has changed over the time...but not much. Most of the levels w
ere played with the same equipment.
Did you find your equipment yourself, or is it mostly from helpers or su
pport squad?
Almost all of the equipment is from helpers or the supporters (incl. pla
yers). Items Diablo drops are free to grab. It\'s some sort of reward for the
supporters. Clearing CS in hell is not that easy and since most of the supp
orters are playing with chars around level 80 they are always risking much e
xp too loose whey dying. Teamplay, games with players who do not leave the g
ame after 2 minutes and the items are the "advantages" we can offer them bes
ide the ladder competition.
Use the character for gambling much, since you can get +2 amulets and ot
her things lower level characters never can?
Rarely. Getting exp is more important :-)
Gotten anything really great from killing Diablo on hell so many times?
+2 amulets or other such things?
Diablo drops crap ;-)
Perhaps one good item every 300 kills. Some nicer things we got were a 2
65 damage lance and a very good prismatic amulet with +18 str etc.
Thanks to the GERBarb team and to Flatline for translating and helping u
s get this interview done.
