The sky is very blue, the white clouds are very white, the sunlight shining through the cracks in the buildings is very yellow and bright, and the heated and expanding air produces hot winds, which also make the distant scenery blurry and tremble, as if the next second the ethereal mirage unique to the desert area will be staged.
It's a pity that no one is willing to stop and enjoy such a strange scene, the faint smell of gunpowder smoke in the air, the black smoke rising in the distance, and the faint roar and crackling sound are all reminding everyone that it is important to be optimistic about their own lives first.
Guo Luojun hunched his waist, bent his legs, and slowly rubbed forward with his right hand against the wall, his nervous feelings made his hands and feet tense and unable to use his strength, and he scolded his body for not obeying the call countless times in his heart, but he was helpless, he could only grind forward little by little, because he stayed in place and died faster.
His mission was to get to the mobile phone store in front of him through the street of Guò and not to be taken away by stray bullets or anyone's cold guns, but at this moment he had long forgotten the fact that it was just a game, and Xiao Guo, who was completely immersed in it, could only try to recall the content of the training session and try to do it, only in this way could he live longer.
As his target got closer, his heart couldn't help but thump, "This is it!" he leaped to his feet, sped forward, and threw himself straight into the ordinary-looking shop.
Then, he fell on top of a pile of foam balls.
The scene of colorful balls colliding and bouncing brought Xiao Guo back to reality in a short period of time, making him realize where he was again. Reaching behind his head to take off the headset and throwing it aside, Guo Luojun turned over and turned himself on his back to the sky, he just lay comfortably in the shape of a "big" figure, but he didn't have any intention of getting up.
"It's not easy to finally get through the first level!" shouted to someone as he lay down and shouted towards the low ceiling.
"Hey, how long do you want to lie down?"
It wasn't until the staff next to him couldn't stand the reminder anymore that he struggled to get up from the foam pile, picked up the N7 headset next to him and walked towards the exit.
The place where he now lives resembles a shipping container, with no windows in the rectangular room, connected to the other box rooms by several sliding doors. Each room looks like a container from the outside, but the internal structure is different, some are equipped with hot and cold fans, and some are steering platforms, and he just wore a headset to walk through the maze of these rooms.
Walking to the door and bending his legs and jumping down, Guo Luojun handed the headset in his hand to the waiting party, and then a paper clipboard with a pen and paper was stuffed into his hand, "Come on, come on, fill out the questionnaire while it's hot!" The staff member said with a smile.
Just now he was experiencing the world's most advanced VR technology, but now he has to write on a pen and paper that has been used for nearly 2,000 years, although it is not the first time, but it still makes him feel a slight pain.
He had also asked why before, and in the face of his doubts, the staff also complained constantly, and even said that they couldn't do it and were very irritable. After all, if you use a web page or application to publish a questionnaire, you can achieve automatic statistics, save effort and time, and now it takes a lot of work just to collect and carry the questionnaire every day, not to mention that these questionnaires do not have many multiple-choice questions, and many of them have to write answers by hand, and there will be no way to use machine-readable recognition questionnaires in the future, and the workload will increase when the time comes.
However, after going back and forth a few times, Comrade Xiao Guo probably understood why the development team had to arrange a handwritten questionnaire, and when writing the answers, he was also sorting out his memories to deepen his impression, and the answers seemed to be more emotional than directly typing multiple choice questions on the computer.
The content of these questionnaire questions is very different from the general game evaluation questionnaire, except for the fixed bugs and functional construction questions, most of the questions ask about the emotional state during the game, and combined with their EMG/EEG records, a more realistic and direct emotional response model can be obtained.
Normally, game developers will consider the player's emotional reactions, but unless it is a horror game or a romance game, most of them don't care too much about this, because they also have things to pay attention to such as script design, graphics and gameplay, and program efficiency.
Looking at the three words "Guo Luojun" on the last page, which are still a little crooked, Xiao Guo also shook his head speechlessly, these days he has always written questionnaires by hand, and his handwriting has become a lot more beautiful and normal, but it has only upgraded from a dog crawling to a dog planing, looking neat from a distance or crooked up close, there is no stable dìng unclosed frame structure.
However, he didn't have the idea of buying a calligraphy book and practicing hard for 90 days, but secretly made up his mind that when he gave birth to a baby in the future, he or she would definitely give him or her a good name to write A, B, C, D, one, two, three, and his name now has too many strokes.
Returning the splint to the full-time staff, he didn't rush to start the next round, but just stood by and watched the other people's game tables on the big screen together.
Through guò delicately open and close control zhì and misdirection misleading, this box maze can accommodate more than 10 simultaneous "single-player" games, if the standard is relaxed to multiplayer games, the carrying capacity can be expanded more than ten times.
This is an anti-war themed VR game "Battlelines Touching Ke", which was jointly customized by Bee Mirage and Siemens Industrial Control for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and UNICEF.
After obtaining the pictures and video materials of the real battlefield around the world provided by UNHCR and UNICEF, Bee quickly created the base game of the VR action game, which has been released for free on the four major mobile phone platforms in the name of the United Nations, allowing people in a peaceful world to see what is called the difficulty of hell on earth.
The United Nations is not interested in VR because it's trendy, but because immersive immersion is more effective in inspiring empathy, which in turn induces acts of compassion and relief.
In fact, even before UNESCO partnered with Bee Mirage on the World Heritage VR Initiative, other UN organizations such as UNHCR, UNICEF, WHO were already using the new technology, with the help of a number of artists, who produced a number of VR documentaries and showed them to specific groups of people.
For example, allowing the people of Palestine and Israel to watch and experience each other's lives, so as to bridge the differences and reduce the confrontation, or at the beginning of the fundraising party, the middle class in London and New York watched a video of the war, poverty and Ebola threats encountered by people in Syria, Ethiopia and Guinea, all of which achieved very good results, and the audience feedback and the amount of donations exceeded expectations.
Because BLS, which had no in-app purchase but a one-click donation function, also had the desired effect, UNHCR contacted Bee to create a version that was more suitable for professional exhibition, which led to the current labyrinth.
The deformable labyrinth room they created together with Siemens Industrial Control is not just a movable maze, it is equipped with a large number of sensors and equipment such as odor walking, hot and cold air, vibration and turning, etc., which can further let users feel the danger and helplessness of people in the firefighting area.
The most powerful feature of VR technology itself is the immersive sense of immersion, which is further enhanced by the addition of other somatosensory elements such as smell and touch.
However, the difficulty has also been further increased, and now it is not a hell difficulty, but a purgatory difficulty.
You know, now these testers are all professional security guards of the Ministry of Security, although they are not international mercenary fighting elites, but most of them have enlisted in the army, and the usual militarized training has not stopped. However, even so, the chance of them passing the first level is only about sixty percent, and there is only one person who has passed the third level in a row, let alone ordinary people.
It is worth mentioning that Guo Luojun and their onlookers are the current record holder, Atletico Madrid's private security director Jiang Xueming. The latter is also the deputy head of the group's security department, which is not only the boss of him and the other security guards here, but also the most powerful person in the bee company.
The atmosphere inside the Security Department is still very simple and relaxed, with a simple sentence: those who can go up and those who can't go down. Every month, the Ministry of Security organizes a regular martial arts competition, which is not only a training but also an active atmosphere, and the most popular activity is the "position challenge", which can be used to defeat the target to get the opponent's management position.
In fact, because of the large number of people in the Ministry of Security, the actual number of people is not large, and the level is not high, there are only three levels of ministers, captains, and team members, so even if there is a change of positions, it will not affect the actual work. It's just that in this way, Jiang Xueming's position as the deputy department has become a "fragrant dumpling", which was warmly welcomed by everyone, and many young men who were eager to get promoted and raised their salaries to marry Bai Fumei lined up to challenge him.
As a result, he was knocked out by him in line.
Over time, except for the newcomer Leng Touqing, no one dared to challenge the authority of Deputy Jiang's department, and everyone had to silently watch someone sit on the throne of the first combat power of bees.
Of course, after showing his skills in the Atletico Madrid jewelry store, this first man was a little shaken, and from time to time some people who didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement pry up the two of them at the company forum, but so far they have not been able to do so.
Even Xiao Guo himself doesn't know if the two have fought, Jiangbe still sits firmly on the throne of his group's first place, and even refused the group's promotion instructions many times for this reason, refusing to be promoted to a higher management position. His current position is like an ancient general, who needs to fight on the front line, and then he is promoted to the minister of security or other management posts to become a civil minister, and the content of the test of political performance is not combat effectiveness.
However, even such a fierce man encountered this pit father, oh no, it should be the labyrinth of the pit uncle, and he was abused so much that he didn't want to.
Because of the "Four Famous Fathers", the pit dad, which has been widely circulated on the Internet, has a footnote of practical significance, and because of the accident some time ago, Dong Vice Dong suddenly got rid of a bunch of uncles and uncles who "helped", so he was called by netizens as an enhanced version of the pit dad. However, it seems that it is not very smooth, and this word will probably not be popular for a long time, and no one will say it in August.
Speaking of which, the reason why Lao Jiang Guo Luojun and they were able to have free time to test Uncle Pit's VR maze was also a little related to this big event. The big event attracted all the attention of netizens across the country, but it was brought by a wave of marketing by bees and relevant departments, saying that there was no rebound and resentment was false. So in the past few days, Atletico Madrid can reduce the activity of Cheng Dù, who is trying to play a little transparent, as his personal bodyguard, Guo Luojun and they are naturally idle, and they are hula and run to be guinea pigs as soon as they are slightly touted by the user experience, and they are abused so much that they don't want to.
In fact, according to what was said before, the test stage is mainly to verify the system to find bugs, and if you can't do it, you can skip the level or lower the difficulty, but Ebe seems to have awakened the heart of a warrior, and he doesn't agree to do this, and he repeatedly challenges the fourth level of this pit uncle.
As for Xiao Guo and them, their bosses all said that they would not skip the level and not reduce the difficulty, and they naturally could only work hard in the first, second and third levels, so they were more or less a little passive and slacking off. It seems that Guo Luojun has just passed the first level, but he is not in a hurry to enter the second level to suffer, he has long known that the second level is a minefield, and after walking around, his feet and calves are tingling and tingling.
Besides, now that there is an opportunity to watch the fierce people eat deflated, of course everyone will not miss it lightly.
Of course, the apparent reason is to observe and learn in advance to accumulate experience. Even if the bracelet repeatedly vibrates to indicate that it has been lined up to itself, and I am still reluctant to move my feet, Jiangbe's tumbling and falling play is very rare, and I may regret it for a year if I miss it!
Then they were happy and miserable.
"Stop, how is the study place?" Jiang Xueming, who came out of the maze with a stinky face, gritted his teeth and asked.
In fact, observe and learn in advance to understand what is a floating cloud, although the layout of these maze units is fixed, but through the deployment of several connecting units, the order in which players enter each unit is completely different, even if you want to use steps and other methods to memorize the map. He had tried to memorize them before, but instead he had died faster due to distraction.
The situation of others is similar, if you want to live longer and get higher scores, you can only concentrate on substituting yourself into the battlefield, and any distraction will lead to defeat.
This is exactly what the game designers have in mind, with the current VR technology can not make 100% realistic pictures, can only use this kind of psychological suggestion to strengthen it from the side.
Jiang Xueming sighed secretly in his heart, it was because he had been comfortable for too long that his strength had dropped too much, and he secretly decided in his heart that he must leave a set of equipment for the security department for training.
Guo Luojun, who was driven by him to the test, didn't know that the hard days waiting for them were still ahead.
