Chapter 10: Chapter 10. This game is simply a fortress!

"Brother Max, even if I'm dead and nailed in a coffin, I still have to shout out with this decayed voice, this game is like a f*cking fortress!!!"

"Not much to say, if this game isn't popular, I'll have diarrhea on my head!"

Early in the morning, the group leader 'Badass Bunny' made a fuss at the Cowboy Club. This speech without warning caused many submarines to explode.

Quit Smoking: "I rely on? The group leader is alive?"

Bear Hugger: "This world is too busy!"

Keeping People Under The Knife: "I haven't seen you dogs managers the whole night. I thought you were caught doing bad things. (⁠>⁠0⁠<⁠；⁠)"

Nonsense Dude: "What game?"

After a while, the dog management 'Tomorrow Seeker' also appeared and spoke, "It's the virtual reality game that Brother Light promoted in the group the day before yesterday."

Quit Smoking: "Damn it, you guys have already played it?! Really?! Don't lie to me!"

Tomorrow Seeker: "Why would I lie to you? It's not like you are my girlfriend."

Unfortunately, the device does not support in-game screenshots. Otherwise, he will directly upload the picture.

Quit Smoking: "Then tell me quickly, what exactly is a fully immersive virtual reality game? Which VR can I play?"

Badass Bunny: "VR? Hehe, that kind of head-mounted screen is also comparable to the game helmet of Wasteland OL? (⁠^⁠O⁠^⁠)"

Quit Smoking: "What do you mean, can wasteland OL play without VR glasses?"

Tomorrow Seeker: "You don't know much at first glance, people use game helmets. Emmmm... how do you explain it, have you seen Sword Art Online? It's almost that kind of thing."

Quit Smoking: "I rely on?!"

Nonsense Dude: "Awesome!"

Bear hugger: "Who are you fooling, return to Sword Art Online...how come I have never heard of such an amazing game!"

Keeping People Under The Knife: "That's right!"

Most people don't believe it. This sounds so unbelievable! To be reasonable, when an unprecedented technology comes out, there must be a process from unfamiliarity to maturity. This foreshadowing process can be very short, but it must be there.

Tomorrow Seeker actually understood their feelings deep down. After all, he has also experienced their current stage feeling that the so-called immersive virtual reality game is just a joke made by a sand sculpture group friend.

However--This is indeed true.

Tomorrow Seeker: "The device does not support taking pictures. I really can't prove it. I can only say that it is up to you to believe it or not. But after so long of experience, I have summed up some information about this game."

Quit Smoking: "Good brother! Tell me quickly!"

Tomorrow Seeker: "Group leader please banned the entire group, I am slow in typing."

Badass Bunny: "Okay!"

As a man who used to be in the top 200 of the US server and was the strongest king in the league, Tomorrow Seeker's talent in games is obvious to all the friends in the group. In terms of games, it is also the most vocal. This man, as if he doesn't have to go to work, plays games every day.

Not only in multiplayer online games but also in the list of speedrunning strategy groups of many stand-alone games, he can be seen. There are many phenomenal masterpieces among them, and even many brothers in the group have used the strategies he typed. It can be said that he is the king of waste. Therefore, no matter whether they believe in the 'Fully Immersive Virtual Online Game' setting or not, almost everyone is curiously waiting for him to pick words.

"Let's talk about the background of the game first. The background is actually nothing special. The orthodox post-apocalypse setting + wasteland punk style. The story is set in an overhead world. The nuclear war two hundred years ago destroyed everything. Players play the role of residents of the shelter and return to the surface. Currently we—that is, the beta testers—are going to the surface to build outposts as the vanguard. We haven't officially entered the main storyline yet. More clues may have to wait for the internal test or even the public beta before we can unlock them. I won't mention them here. gone."

"Let's talk about the authenticity of the game! It is no exaggeration to say that the authenticity of this game is the ceiling of all the games I have seen, and it is foreseeable that this ceiling will hardly be surpassed even in another fifty years! As for why I say this, because the game is simply the Wasteland DLC ( Data Control Language ) of 'Earth OL ( 'OL', An Elision Of The Word 'Old'! ). Whether it's light and shadow effects, or the interaction of the five senses, or even the graininess of the material on the surface of the object... everything is designed to make you believe that this is the real world. This immersive experience has undoubtedly reached the 100% standard. That’s right, 100%! At least I haven’t found any obvious bugs or flaws.”

"And then there's degrees of freedom. As a sandbox game, you can interact with almost everything you touch in the game. This kind of interaction is not just a simple volume collision, but you can change their positions with your subjective will, even change their shape or state, within the bounds of the rules of physics."

"I know what you think, 'The Forest' game, right? But it's completely different. It's a sandbox in the true sense, not a building block spliced ​​​​by pixels and textures! Just for this alone, sandbox players who start this game are absolutely blood is worth it!"

"Let's talk about the most important content! First of all, no matter the player or the monster, there is no HP bar and MP bar setting, and there is no visual attribute panel, at least not during the beta test stage. However, in the actual game, the initial attributes of different players are different. For example, some players have stronger strength, and some have higher perception, agility, or other hidden attributes that have not yet been discovered. I speculate that waiting until the closed beta version, there should be a career system and a weapon system, allowing players to develop their own gameplay based on their own attributes and talents."

"Then there are NPCs. At the current beta test stage, there are only two NPCs in the game. One is the manager code-named 'Dawn'. The other is his assistant, named Popo, who is a robot! What can be confirmed at present is that the two NPCs have a high degree of intelligence and can communicate and interact with players normally. I guess there should be a hidden favorability setting, but this is just my personal guess, and I haven't got it yet. confirmed."

"Other than that, I am more concerned about pain. Although it is a 100% real game, it is not good to make some parts too real, especially because I am more afraid of pain. But the design of this game is very human. Although the pain sensation exists with the touch sensation, there is a protective threshold. For example, I tried to cut my arm with a stone, but it didn't hurt, but it hurt a little when I pinched myself. I guess the game should be some kind of protection mechanism so that the 'over-limit' pain cannot be detected by the nerves of the brain. Central capture...Of course, it may also be the body's own self-protection mechanism. It's as if we feel pain in a dream, but it will not exceed the tolerance limit."

"Actually, I think the official game can be more humane. For example, the authority to adjust the pain sensation can be opened to the players, and the players can set it themselves. I am personally very satisfied with the current five-sense immersion and pain shielding, but I may not like that kind of experience.”

"As for the game's resurrection mechanism, I haven't tried it yet, but I heard that every time I die, a certain contribution point will be deducted, and the resurrection CD lasts for 3 days! Contribution points are actually easy to say, and you can get them by doing tasks, but the penalty time is really too much. It’s long. Anyway, I don’t really want to try it. Any warrior who is interested can try it by himself, and maybe he can unlock a different gameplay.”

"Finally, I want to complain, why are all the characters pure men? Who the hell wants to see the nude bodies of big men!!! Strongly request the game official to allow players to set their own gender! The future will be long" wrote one or two thousand words eloquently, and more and more people in the group watched and watched the screen.

This includes the behind-the-scenes man-'Light'.

Just now Lucius was looking at the medical examination report scanned by the training cabin, but he didn't pay attention to the news in the group, but he went to the computer in the resident hall to check, the good guy actually wrote so much?

But there is one thing to say, this old man called 'Tomorrow Seeker' summed it up very well, basically said everything he wanted to say, and even considered things that he didn't think about.

Group ban lifted...

The group messages flashed across the screen in an instant.

"6666!"

"Ohh Shit, this game is so addicting, I'll buy ten copies!"

"I do not believe."

"+1 if you don't believe me! Unless you give me a test qualification!"

Although there are still many friends in the group who don't believe that there is such an awesome game, at least a dozen people have turned their backs.

As for why Lucius knew, because he could see the background of the official website. At the moment of the beep, the number of reservations has jumped from 11 to 25.

Light: "I was working just now, so I didn't pay attention to the group. There is basically nothing wrong with what Tomorrow Seeker said so I will add a few words."

Quit smoking: "Damn! Brother Light!!!"

( The group mute is turned on. )

( 'Light' was appointed as the group manager. )

Huh? Directly made me dog manager? Lucius was slightly surprised, but he didn't care too much and continued typing.

"First of all, it is about the player's character and attributes. Indeed, as Tomorrow Seeker said in the future, the game does have character attributes and level settings, and each player's initial talent is different. This can be done at the respawn point—that is, when the player wakes up. Come to the training cabin or check on the official website."

"The death penalty is not just a 3-day resurrection CD and deduction of contribution points, it will also lead to the loss of part of the progress before the archive. The archive method is to lie in the culture cabin for scanning and somatic cell sampling. It takes about 1 to 2 hours. This The process will happen automatically after the player goes offline."

"We expect to implement a faster attribute query mechanism before the closed beta stage, so that players can grasp the status of the character in real time and enrich the playability."

"As for customizing the character's appearance and gender... I'm sorry that this can't be done."

"Just like reincarnation cannot be determined, the body in the game is determined by the pre-loaded DNA. If you are not satisfied with the character's appearance, you can consider plastic surgery or even prosthetic body transformation. Later games will add this function. "

"In addition, starting from the A-round test phase, players can set their preferences for the five attributes of strength, agility, physique, perception, and intelligence on the reservation level page through questionnaires."

"If you choose strength, you have a higher probability of obtaining strength talents, and the initial character has higher strength. If you don't have a tendency, you can also choose a balanced type."

"As for gender, the gender of the character is the same as the gender of the player, and the player cannot set it freely. This is mainly for safety reasons, and the difference in physiological structure will cause coordination problems. At the same time, the resulting gender identity We are unwilling to bear the risks of knowledge barriers and public opinion.”

In fact, this was not set by Lucius. It is the original setting of the system. There seems to be a very complicated technical problem in it, and Lucius doesn't understand the principle, he only knows that it is like this.

Tomorrow seeker: "F*ck! Don't, I'm an adult, I can sign a risk awareness letter!!!"

(The group manager 'Tomorrow Seeker' was banned for 10 minutes by the group owner.)

Badass Bunny: "Don't interrupt!"

8th Level Gale: "That's it."

Get Up Ten Times A Night: "Please shut up first."

Lucius was amused in his heart, but he didn't interrupt, and continued to pick out words.

"The above is the result of my discussion at the meeting just now. In addition, in the next stage of testing, we will add the 'favorability system'."

Get Up Ten Times A Night: "Favourability?! What do you mean? Can you date NPCs?!"

(The group manager 'Get Up Ten Times A Night' was banned by the group owner for 10 minutes.)

Good guy. This group leader is really stern and selfless, he just silenced him without saying a word. It saved him a lot of time.

Lucius had a cheeky face and continued to dig out the words in a serious manner.

"Don't know the target all day long. Favorability means the NPC's evaluation of the player."

"The specific manifestation is that the player's behavior will affect the NPC's perception of the player. Especially for some key NPCs, when the favorability is high enough, not only can they get extra rewards, but they may even trigger hidden tasks and unlock hidden career routes!"

Hidden missions!

Hidden occupation!

Seeing these simple characters, the eyes of the four beta testers in front of the screen were rounded. There was a fire in my heart. Good guy, this is encouraging them to be licking dogs!

But--

Grandpa likes it!

What happened when you licked the dog? Not licking real people!

What is licking is NPC, and what is licking is artificial intelligence, not to mention that there are great benefits after licking.

Not shabby!

Lucius thought for a while and seemed to have nothing else to add. Currently, the refuge is too poor. Apart from a large group of free laborers, his poor commander has nothing else. He can only rely on his status as an online dog planner to make cakes for the players.

"Do you have anything to ask? Or something you are more concerned about?" Lucius wanted to know if the players themselves had any better ideas.

He is a very open-minded person. If conditions permit, he can consider adopting it. If conditions do not permit, he can also draw a cake first and tell them that there will be one in the future.

8th Level Gale: "Yes! What exactly is that contribution point? Is it a currency? Or is it similar to experience? Points?"

Sure enough, they still asked this. Lucius thought for a while, then typed back.

"The economic system of the game is still being designed. Our goal is to create a completely real economic system from production to distribution, so that both life professional players and combat professional players can fully experience the fun of the game."

"As for contribution points, you can understand it as a special currency in the beta test phase, which is mainly used to test the current task system."

"In addition to being used to purchase resurrection coins, our planning team is also considering launching some special rewards that can only be redeemed by contribution points as a reward for closed beta players."

Anyway, it’s just painting cakes. As for the reward, Lucius hadn't figured it out yet, it depended on what good things he got from the system. However, this sentence is completely different in the eyes of the players. Can only be exchanged with contribution points?!

That is to say——Closed beta limited rewards! The four players who had already obtained the qualifications for the beta test were delighted from ear to ear. Those players who have made reservations on the official website but have not yet obtained the qualifications for the beta test are also tickled by the teasing.

As for the group of friends who didn't believe in 'Fully Immersive Virtual Reality Game' from the beginning, they naturally wouldn't change their minds just because of his words.

But It does not matter. It is enough for someone to believe.

"It's getting late, and I have to go to sleep for a while after working overtime all night. By the way, that 'Tomorrow Seeker', your strategy is well written, how about posting it on the official website? Now the official website has opened the forum system, Register an account and you can post on it, and good post administrators will improve it when they see it.”

The administrator was naturally Lucius himself. At present, he is the only one in the whole company. He is not only an NPC, but also a dog planner, and a part-time moderator of the official website forum.

"OK! I'll go right away!" Tomorrow Seeker, who had already lifted the ban, left this sentence and went to the chat history at the speed of light.

The group owner lifted the ban on the entire group. The news in the group is like a torrent breaking a bank.

Lucius saw that many people had added him as friends, some of them wanted to PY with him for the beta test qualification, some wanted to ask him about game information, and some even planned to teach him how to play games. He really couldn't come back, so he didn't reply at all, and went offline directly.

Looking at the four physical examination reports on the computer, Lucius suddenly had a whim and asked.

"Popo."

"What's the matter, master."

"You said... Since players can use the training cabin, can I also use the clones in the training cabin to move around?"

"Emmm... I don't know."

"I don't know what the hell it is???"

"Because I'm just your assistant, and you basically know all the information I know. There is no record of the training chamber you used in my database. Maybe...the first manager didn't design the training chamber that can be used by you."

Lucius just wanted to ask why, but suddenly fell silent again. In fact, the reason for this is not difficult to guess. Assuming that this shelter can withstand strategic nuclear strikes, then there must be no way in this wasteland to forcibly invade this shelter. Even if something unexpected happens to the self that has high hopes, it is just a period of dormancy for it, waiting for the arrival of the next manager.

Looking at Lucius who fell into silence, Popo groaned in concern.

"Master?"

"Nothing."

After regaining his senses, Lucius continued to look at the medical examination report on the computer screen. Perhaps it is for the convenience of players to understand, or perhaps it is the bad taste of the first-generation managers. More than 120 complex body function data have all been re-summarized and summarized into five concise and concise items.

Namely, strength, agility, constitution, perception, and intelligence.

Strength represents the strength of body tissues such as muscles and bones, and represents the player's basic weight, melee damage, throwing weapon distance, etc.

Agility corresponds to the reflex nerves, related to the player's reaction speed, motor coordination ability, and other physical data. The specific performance is that players with higher agility are more dexterous in battle and easier to actively dodge attacks.

Physique corresponds to the player's vitality and resilience, which is mainly reflected in the recovery of lost health, resistance and immunity to some abnormal states, etc.

Intelligence is not equal to IQ or logical thinking ability. It mainly affects the character's learning ability and recovery speed of mental state, and at the same time affects the fit with neural access equipment. Specifically, characters with high intelligence can operate more neural access devices at the same time.

Perception represents intuition and insight. Characters with higher perception have a sharper intuition for crises and are more likely to discover hidden clues and traps.

It is also the most mysterious item!

The base value of all attributes is 5, which fluctuates in the range of ±2 according to the genetic sequence and physical condition.

Although he didn't have his own training cabin, Lucius still found spare medical examination equipment on the B1 floor of the shelter. As he guessed. He also possesses a special genetic sequence that can be detected by medical examination equipment.

It's just a pity that there is no information about this gene sequence in the database, and it seems to exist outside of the plan.

To explain it in game terms, this is a path that 'Game Publishers' have never imagined. And this also means that no one knows where it will lead if you walk down this road, and what result you will get.

Realizing this, Lucius felt a little uneasy in his heart. But more, still excited. Maybe the word adventure is engraved in his bones. Rather than follow the path envisioned by others step by step, he prefers to walk his own path.

Based on the results of the physical examination and the attribute conversion formula left by the first-generation managers, Lucius made his own attribute panel, and based on this, he also made a copy for the four test players.

【 ID: Lucius

Genetic Sequences: Managers

Level: LV.5

——Basic attributes——

Strength: 8

Dexterity: 6

Constitution: 6

Perception: 7

Intelligence: 6 】

"The five-dimensional data is basically a gear stronger than the players."

"Level LV5 means that the development progress of the gene sequence is 5%? It seems that the past five months have not been completely wasted."

The development progress of the other four beta testers is 0. But it's not exactly 0. For example, 'Badass Bunny'. His genetic sequence is 'strength', and by frequently using brute force, that is, cutting down trees, his development progress increased by 0.3% in one day, while the other three beta testers only increased by about 0.1% . If you continue to cut down trees in the next two days, Badass Bunny may become the first player to break through level 0 and advance to LV1.

Thinking of this, Lucius made up his mind.

Sure enough, I had to order them to do more work. It's for their own good too!
