Chapter 1210: The Bee Tour of Technology
Light and shadow flow, and human voices change.
The majestic castle tower is gone, and there is only the concerned eyes of the beautiful young lady in front of him.
Seeing him looking at him, the shogirl dressed as a female ninja asked softly, "It's okay, right?"
Coming back to his senses from the tragic picture just now, Heng Er responded suddenly: "I'm fine, thank you for your concern!"
Take off the headset and hand it back to the other person, then take off the gloves and strap on the body and leave the machine. Suddenly he felt a cold neck and a cold back, and then he realized that he was sweating a lot, and suddenly blushed a little.
The crowd in the exhibition hall gathered, the temperature was much higher than outside, he was wrapped in black clothes, and ran a few kilometers in the game world, really covering a hot sweat. There should also be a terrifying cold sweat brought about by a fatal knife, Heng Er touched his neck and thought that just now he clearly felt a stabbing pain in his neck, and he almost thought that his head was not safe.
Seeing that he suddenly touched his neck, Miss Kanban handed over his backpack and a bag, and gently reminded: "Sir, this is your bag, this is a souvenir we have prepared for you." There are changing rooms there that you can change into immediately!"
"Oh!
Immersed in the gentle smile of the young lady, my grandson Hengji accepted two things and dodged into the dressing room.
The bag contained four items: a black hooded t-shirt, a ninja badge, and a small package of green tea and tissue packets, which were well prepared.
Wiping off the fine sweat on his body and changing into this ninja-themed top, Hengji quickly walked out.
Look at the young lady again, she is receiving the next player, and the smile on her face is still bright, but she has forgotten the little boy just now.
Cursing himself in his heart, Heng Er put his heart behind and turned his head to look in the other direction of the booth.
Because I've been in Ninja for a long time, there are already long queues in front of the demo area of several other games.
Counting third parties, Bee Games brought a total of more than 50 games this time, but only six were the main ones.
The real-life VR fighting game "Sengoku Ninja Tan" is the first, the steampunk racing game "Steam Age" is the second, then the mecha driving game "Earth Reconstruction: Heroes' Monument" and the robot fighting game "Attack, Joomaru!", and finally the historical sandbox game "Silk Road" and the evolutionary sandbox game "Cambrian Explosion".
Choosing them as the main hits,Obviously for the island market,Warring States、Ninja is a popular theme in the island country,"Rou Wang Maru" comics still have a certain popularity,Steampunk、Silk Road、Biological evolution is also a favorite theme for island country players,"The Wandering Earth" has just been drawn in the island country not long ago, and the appearance of related games at this time is more likely to attract attention.
Not only are the themes popular, but these games also generally carry eye-catching elements such as robots, AI, VR, and brain-controlled operations, which fully highlight the high-tech characteristics of bee games, and at this time, they also burst out with a strong appeal. From the first day of the exhibition to the present, the popularity of the Bee Game booth is at the forefront of the whole audience, only slightly inferior to the Capcom booth, which has the famous series of "Monster Hunter".
Looking at the mecha models and small robots in the crowd from afar, Hengji estimated the time it would be his turn, and decisively decided to go and see something else first.
Walking to the steam quad, he stopped and looked down.
The bodies and wheels of both cars are made of woodwork, the seats are also in the style of old carriages, the control system only has a torsion bar and handbrake, and there is a steam engine in the back, which looks very retro. Of course, these two cars are actually specially customized steam car driving simulators, although the steam engine is bubbling white steam, but inside is a humidifier and an electric motor, after all, it is a crowded public event, even if Bee You wants to come to it, the organizers will not agree.
Two players are sitting in the car, experiencing a 200-year-old vehicle, and their race footage is synchronized to the big screen next to it. Although the speed is not much faster than that of a bicycle, the game has vivid and vivid hutong scenery, temporary tracks full of conditions, and crowding and chasing full of laughter. In particular, the two "drivers" who are fully committed also have a lot to see.
Not long after, the competition ended, and the winner walked away triumphantly with the miniature model as the winning prize, and the player next to the latter immediately filled in the position, and the new round of competition quickly began.
"Huh?" After looking at it for a while, Hengji realized that the situation was wrong, "The track has changed, is this randomly generated?"
The whispering was heard by the people next to him, and the others ignored it according to the habits of the island country, but a young boy suddenly answered, "Hey, don't you know? These tracks are randomly generated by the PCG system, and it is said that there are more than 10,000 kinds of tracks!"
Turning his head to look at the other party, Heng Er nodded, and said with some disapproval: "More than 10,000 doesn't seem to be too much, but using PCG technology can create hundreds of billions of random scenes." ”
"It's different!" The fanatical fan who seemed to be a bee next to him suddenly became excited when he heard this, "Beegame uses the same PCG, but it is a more evolved version. Although the quantity is less than that of other manufacturers, it is more refined and rich, and it is not at the same level at all!"
Seeing that this "ninja" classmate looked incredulous, the crazy fan classmate grabbed his wrist, "You come with me!
Henger's ninja training is just scratching the surface, and there is still a long way to go before the intuition of the martial artist, and he was pulled by the other party without checking for a while, and when he reacted, the person had been pulled to the trial area of another game.
There are 10 pt2 consoles and 4K TVs here, each with a demo player next to it, and a large number of onlookers waiting in the back.
Glancing at the big screen next to him, the name of the game displayed on it was "カンブリア大爆", and Hengji nodded suddenly.
Creating creatures with PCG technology is undoubtedly more difficult than creating a track scene, and it's easier to shine when done well.
Paleontologists have found a staggering number of paleontological fossils in Cambrian strata about 54 to 530 million years ago, but fossils are rarely found in earlier strata, and this explosive phenomenon is known as the Cambrian explosion.
For a long time, the Cambrian explosion was the second largest unsolved case in paleontology and geology, after the origin of life. Countless scientists, including Charles Darwin, have been involved in trying to find an answer to this question, but too far away and too little evidence have been able to get a convincing answer. Because of the curiosity of "where life comes from", even ordinary people have heard of the Cambrian explosion, and this subject is not out of the way.
Bee Game can't explain the Big Bang, but it can recreate the boom with the help of PCG technology.
Players take on the role of a primitive arthropod that roams the oceans 500 million years ago, foraging for food, growing, fighting, and reproducing. When the animal dies, the player's control will be transferred to the offspring, which will gradually evolve through the accumulation of mutations, and eventually evolve into different and interesting animals.
Last year's high-profile landing on the PS platform "No Man's Sky (No Man's Sky)" received a lot of bad reviews at the beginning and was scolded as a "no man's pit", because the PCG generation algorithm is too simple, and the planetary environment and biological system created are similar, which makes the player experience repetitive and boring. Fortunately, the developer, Hello Games, was still ashamed and did not give up on the project, adding functional elements to the game with more than a dozen updates, finally allowing players to see their efforts, and then reap more encouragement, appreciation, and sales.
Bees have long begun to apply PCG technology to create scenes, weather and creatures, and the experience in this area is that hello game is only strong but not weak, and there is a big killer weapon of earth simulator in hand, so it is naturally handy to do.
Although these creatures that appear on the TV screen look a little strange, they all have relatively reasonable appearance and living habits, at least my grandson Hengji, who only has a high school education, said that he doesn't see anything strange about it.
It is worth mentioning that the scientific community and industry have been researching and using earth simulators. One of the most famous is the "Earth Simulator", a vector supercomputer developed by the island nation NEC in 2002. This supercomputer was the fastest supercomputer in the world for several years in a row, only to be defeated by IBM's Blue Gene series.
Cluster supercomputing represented by Blue Gene can use ordinary server CPUs, and as long as the data throughput problem is enhanced, the computing power can be continuously improved, which is more convenient than the traditional solution of using special vector processors, and has soon become the mainstream of the industry. Nowadays, most of the machines in the supercomputer ranking belong to the cluster type, especially the new supercomputer that came out this year, and even the island country's "earth simulator" also started to change the core upgrade in 09 years, and gradually became a cluster supercomputer, and the research direction has also changed from the original earth's atmospheric cycle, greenhouse effect prediction, crustal changes, etc. to the ocean.
Bees' "Earth Simulator" also uses a cluster-based, distributed computing model, and its performance is not surprising, but it is good enough to "recreate the past".
With the help of various public sources and academic papers, the Bee Research Institute has recreated the 4.5 billion years of the earth's history on the "Earth Simulator", and reproduced and deduced many organisms. These existing or possibly existing organisms are then imported into the machine learning system as a control template, and the biosynthesis algorithm is self-trained to make the latter closer to reality, so as to create real and credible organisms.
Of course, the generation algorithm is only the first step, and the specific production of biological modules such as teeth, horns, bones and hooves, fur and feather scales, organs, flesh and blood still consumes a lot of manpower. At the beginning, Beegame only used this technology in a small amount in its online games, and with the gradual increase in the accumulation of biological modules in its hands, it launched the "Cambrian", which released all the accumulation over the years at one time, and strived to bring players a powerful enough shock.
While the creatures generated in the PCG aren't as delicate and vivid as the artificially created animals in Monster Hunter: World next door, they're more numerous and varied, and just as much fun.
"How's it going?" the young man asked proudly, "Isn't it super-powerful?"
"It's really strong," Hengji nodded in acknowledgement, "By the way, my name is my grandson Hengji." As you can see, he is now a trainee ninja. ”
"Ah, it's rude to forget to introduce yourself," the young man hurriedly remedied, "My name is Yunlong Chimi, and I am currently an indie game developer. ”
"Ahh
"Yes," Ikemi nodded decisively, "Bucai's work is called 'Delirious Tearing', a fantasy game of exploding clothes, and this time I shared a booth with others. ”
"I see, I've played this game!
As he spoke, Hengji took out his mobile phone and showed it to the other party.
"Tearing Up" was originally an MR game on the Bee Glasses platform, but the application was rejected.
Later, Yunryu Ikemi saw a business opportunity, and made hundreds of thousands of yen by selling Bee Eyes 3 equipped with a "development version of the game", and then recruited people to enrich his personal studio, and finally ported the game to the more open and free PC platform and Android platform, and officially debuted at this year's C92. Seeing that the sales momentum was good, he brought his employees to Chiba Makuhari, wanting to take advantage of the victory to chase and make another profit.
There are employees on duty at the small stall over there, and Yun Longsang, who is the owner of the studio, has some leisure for the time being, and just goes around to collect information.
In fact, there are many industry exchange activities during the same period, but unfortunately Yunlong Studio's name is not well-known, and the qualifications are too shallow, and the invitations received are not many, but they can't be busy.
Seeing the Android version of "Tear Up" on Henger's mobile phone, Yun Longsang's mood was even better, and he took out a card with a smile and said: "When we meet for the first time, this clothing card will be regarded as my gift, please smile!"
The official release version of "Tear Up" adopts a free-to-play online game and a kryptonite unboxing operation model, putting most of the thousands of body types and 30,000 underwear into the treasure chest, and then selling it to players at a very low price.
Taking the card, Heng Er first thanked him politely, and then as if he thought of something, he suddenly asked, "I heard that the 30,000 pieces of underwear in 'Tear Off' were all made by yourself, and it should also use PCG technology similar to the bee game, right?"
"Almost," Yun Longsang nodded in confirmation of his guess, and then added, "I didn't have the money to buy machine learning hardware, so I had to use some stupid methods. I generated 1 million pieces of underwear with PCG and then hand-picked 30,000 pieces to keep. ”
"It's amazing!" Hengji was shocked.
"It's okay," Yun Longchi nodded at the stinky fart, "but it's still not as good as a machine." ”
Pointing to the AR cross-dressing mirror on the other side, he sighed: "There are tens of thousands of characters and more than a million costumes in the 'Mirror Love' over there, and they are all exquisite and good-looking, this is the general trend." ”
The current AI technology is not yet able to lead the trend and create classics. However, through learning and summarizing, they can imitate and copy the above good costumes and character designs, which are slightly insufficient for large-scale terminal games, but they are enough to cope with cartoon-style mobile games.
Turning his head to look at the drag mirrors where the female players gathered, Hengji suddenly said, "It looks like we have to take a moment of silence for their wallets." 2k reading network
