803 Closed beta
This is a game that Star Group has put a lot of effort into building. The grandeur of the game scene www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion means a huge amount of computation, especially to accommodate tens of thousands of star maps to simulate various possible situations in the universe, such as black holes, supernova explosions, and so on. In addition to the fact that the design is designed to serve billions of players at the same time, and there can be no lag, it is impossible for the current electronic computer technology to meet the requirements, unless there is a new algorithm that perfectly supports the current electronic computer.
The actual situation is that Star Technology, the predecessor of Star Group, has improved the algorithm of the electronic calculation model to the extreme. Therefore, such a game can only be perfectly supported by Quantum Superbrain. So for the countless game design practitioners in the game department of Star Group, this game is really the pinnacle of their imagination before.
In particular, this game also incorporates the latest virtual reality and augmented reality features, which have almost integrated games into the lives of ordinary people, and it is natural for game developers to be proud to be able to participate in the design and development of such a great game in their lifetime.
Therefore, every time Wang Shizi inspects the game department, he will receive the warmest welcome, and this time will naturally be no exception.
"The main plot structure of the game has been completed a long time ago, and the fifth test is underway internally, are you interested in getting into the game to experience it?"
After a lively but not cumbersome welcome ceremony, the head of the game department, Jameson Lodge, the former senior director of Blizzard's creative development department, opened his mouth to invite, this Jameson Lodge is definitely a well-known figure in the game industry, Blizzard's three most classic and widest audience games, he has participated, initially just a game designer, step by step to climb to the current position, extremely experienced.
"Oh? That's really going to go in and feel it! Wang Shizi nodded, and said with interest.
With this group of professional game designers for decades, and with so many epoch-making technologies, Wang Shizi has never worried about the playability of this game. But in entertainment, the potential and best of human beings are tapped out, but it is a new challenge for this game, and if you can enter the game in advance, Wang Shizi will naturally not refuse.
"But I want to tell you one thing first, because it's all internal testing, so now you can only use devices with its own feedback function to enter the game, and after you enter the game, we can receive all the data fed back by the game system." Jameson Lodge had a hint.
This is not unreasonable, and devices with feedback capabilities allow these game developers to not only let these developers know about various in-game situations, but also expose some users' privacy. From the simplest system to give a career choice, Quantum Superbrain will automatically search for the player's life experience while verifying the identity, and will also give a test question on personality, intelligence, imagination and other aspects, which vary from person to person. Only by entering the game and conducting these tests can the system be able to recommend the most suitable class in the game for players to choose according to each player's personality, hobbies, and abilities.
In particular, some IQ tests naturally take the route from easy to difficult, and the higher the IQ, the longer the test may take. Although the questions are highly random, the data obtained by entering the game with such a device with a feedback program may leak the privacy of the test gamer to a certain extent. In particular, the system will conduct a self-test of the physical condition of the test player, and the physical fitness, muscles, and strength will also be included in these reference values.
As the president of the Star Group, Wang Shizi's entry into the game means that some private things will be fed back to their computers, and this situation must naturally be explained first, so as not to mislead Wang Shizi.
This is extremely necessary, as if Jameson Lodge had just finished speaking, Zheng Shaofeng, who was quietly following behind Wang Shizi, frowned unconsciously.
"All devices today have this feedback mechanism?" Wang Shizi nodded and asked.
"Yes. Because this game is a new and different attempt. General in-game bugs do not exist in this game at all, and without strict feedback testing of the data of the beta testers themselves, we have no way of knowing the extent of the system's impact on the player's professional skill distribution, knowledge point indoctrination, and brain domain management. Therefore, the current beta test equipment focuses on monitoring the feedback of the players themselves. Including the next public test, this feedback device must also be used to judge whether the quantum superbrain can show sufficient capabilities in this area through big data. Therefore, in the future open beta of the game, we must also sign an information feedback agreement with players who are willing to accept the test. Jameson Lodge explains.
Wang Shizi nodded, and the explanation given by Jameson Lodge made sense. It's not the bugs that affect this part of the traditional game, but the system's own support for human adaptability. In order to maximize the potential of human beings, it is necessary to pay attention to whether the game itself is accurate in judging various indicators of human beings, and whether the support for the learning and application of various human skills in the game is in place.
In addition to earning real-life expenses through games, more people can gain more social identity through games, so that more people can feel that they are valued, especially the fairness of games.
The captain of a planet that is high above must also be close enough to the people, because in the tens of thousands of planets in the game, every player is an extremely valuable resource. Again, all human beings stay on the earth, and everyone will feel that there are a lot of people around them. But when these people are scattered across tens of thousands, or even just a few hundred colonies, human resources become even more valuable, not to mention that everyone in the game can make the most of their role.
So after thinking for a while, Wang Shizi nodded slowly, "It's okay, since you want to enter the game to see, feedback will give feedback, and it can be regarded as my contribution to this game, but all the information generated after I enter the game should not be included in the big data analysis, and after I understand it, I will directly seal or delete it." ”
“ok! This way, please! The playtest hall is located here. Jameson Lodge nodded excitedly, bent down and stretched out a hand, making a very gentlemanly invitation, and when Wang Shizi walked forward, he walked behind Wang Shizi, half a body slower than Wang Shizi, so that it was convenient to lead the way, and followed in front of Zheng Shaofeng behind Wang Shizi without saying a word.
As Wang Shizi said, his willingness to join the closed beta test is the most powerful support for the game department, which naturally makes the head of the game department feel excited.
The testing hall of the game department occupies a large area, and after the automatic door at the end of the corridor opens, a room of about 2,000 square meters is organized in an orderly manner, and hundreds of game chairs, which look extremely modern at first glance, similar to airline seats, are neatly placed in the hall, and the seats are almost full of insiders who are conducting game tests. Everyone was asleep, leaning back in their comfortable chairs, their feet on the pedals in front of them, half of their heads resting on virtual helmets extending from the back of their chairs.
Although there were a lot of people, the hall was so quiet that you could almost hear a pin dropping. Occasionally, the player will make a sound from the side or dream, which is very clear.
"Most of these are people from within our game department, and we have also recruited a group of people from other departments on the island that are on vacation and not too busy, after all, just our game development department is too limited to participate in the closed beta. Many of the volunteer testers have now changed their schedules to suit our needs. When you do a game test, you spend most of your leisure time taking up your free time. Jameson Lodge explains.
Wang Shizi nodded and asked, "So where do you arrange for me now?" ”
"You're not in the hall. There are also dedicated private rooms where your bodyguard can rest. Jameson pointed to a row of small doors directly in front of the hall.
"Hmm!" Wang Shizi nodded, and suddenly turned back to Zheng Shaofeng and asked, "In fact, there is definitely no problem with the security here, do you want to try it?" ”
Zheng Shaofeng shook his head very dryly.
One is by Wang Shizi's side, Zheng Shaofeng is naturally no stranger to this game that Star Group will focus on, not to mention that there are countless players in the hall who have already tested in the game. Entering the game means that he will temporarily lose consciousness in reality, and his mission is to ensure the safety of Wang Shizi at all times. Even if it was on Putri Island, he didn't dare to relax in the slightest. As a bodyguard of Zhongshan Pavilion, Zheng Shaofeng is well aware of the heavy burden on his shoulders, and any negligence may cause irreparable consequences. Not to mention entering the game at the same time as Wang Shizi, losing consciousness and entering the game.
"Actually, the hibernation of people in the game is relative, you don't see these people lying there motionless as if they are completely asleep, but one of the biggest features of this game is that it is always closely related to reality, in reality, if the system detects some unexpected situation, it will immediately feedback to the game and wake up the player. So Mr. Wang is right, in fact, you can try the game at the same time! Jameson Lodge on the side spared no effort to persuade him.
For him, a game developer, the more players who enter the game in the closed beta stage and become data samples, the better, especially players like Zheng Shaofeng, who are completely different from those who are engaged in scientific research, hobbies, and personalities, and are good at it.
However, Zheng Shaofeng still shook his head, looking unmoved, "Even if the data can be fed back to the game as you said, but from being sober in the game to reacting to reality, it will take at least two to three seconds of time, and for us, these two or three seconds may leave a stain for a lifetime." ”
"This is on Putli Island!" Jameson Lodge muttered, obviously completely incomprehensible to Zheng Shaofeng's seriousness, in his opinion, the entire Putli Island was like a heavily armed giant, how could he encounter any danger? Previously, his homeland, the most powerful navy in the world, had just entered the position of thirty nautical miles on the island and directly suffered a big loss, and he really couldn't think of any danger here.
However, Wang Shizi did not speak, and Jameson Lodge naturally did not keep chattering. Fortunately, in just a moment, the three of them had already walked to the separate game room at the end of the hall. When the automatic doors opened, it wasn't much luxurious, but the chairs used to enter the game were a little larger and more comfortable. After Zheng Shaofeng looked around the room, he stood directly next to the seat.
Wang Shizi sat directly on the chair. This gaming helmet does not need the guidance of Jameson Lodge, and Wang Shizi naturally knows how to use it. First took it off and proofread the size, then Wang Shizi put the helmet on the chair again and fixed it, and then put his head in and adjusted the back of the chair to the most comfortable position, which was connected to the helmet through the chip on his wrist and started the game journey.
At the beginning of the game, the sound of the outside world was cut off through the helmet, and after the test on the helmet, the blindfold of Wang Shizi's eye socket that was just covered, a clear and spectacular three-dimensional picture appeared in front of Wang Shizi's eyes, first countless interstellar warships lined up in regular lines in the galaxy, and with the cover of various nebulae, ......they were moving forward quickly.
Then the picture flashed by, followed by a seemingly vibrant planet from far to near in front of the eyes, from the rapid enlargement of the picture, the picture changed rapidly, from a distant star, to a side of the near planet, and then narrowed down to a space post located at a near-Earth position, and finally through the window of the space outpost, a soldier in a neat uniform was reflected......
The soldier's face changed from initial calm to sudden paleness, and he was extremely shocked, and then slapped on a red button fiercely, and the next moment the rapid alarm sound seemed to resound throughout the planet, and countless starships quickly rose from the space city below the space outpost, and quickly lined up......
However, after all, it was still a step too late, and the previous starships had already launched various weapons from a long distance, and the teams of battleships were directly shot down before they even had time to arrange their formations, and after bursting out of a brilliant firework in space, they scattered and disintegrated......
All the pictures create a tense and exciting atmosphere, a moment later, when the sneak attack fleet fired a salvo of weapons, blowing up countless defensive fleets with sparks, and finally the wreckage of the ship's hull that splashed down gradually converged into four big characters, "Star Wars".
Obviously, this is the final name of the game determined by the game department, and I have to say that this promotional video before entering the game is indeed very skillful, and it makes people's blood boil just by looking at it. And during the broadcast of the promotional video, Wang Shizi in reality gradually entered a dormant state, when the four big characters converged brighter and brighter, converging into a dazzling white light to make people blind for a short time, Wang Shizi found himself suddenly appeared in a rather simple room......
