305 Cloud Beauty
One of the selling points of the game "Solar System Storm" is that it is strictly set in accordance with reality, and because it is based on reality, the experience of players when playing the two civilizations of the Mind and the Federation is completely different.
In a few days, Wu Qing has played seven or eight times, and these seven or eight times he has chosen the Federation, and Shen Wen has chosen the intellectual body, although he is familiar with the game in advance of Shen Wen, but he can't avoid that he will fail every time.
"This is how the game is designed," Shen Wen said to Wu Qing after the ninth defeat, "as long as the Federation does not extinguish the Mind Body in the first place, it will never be defeated, and defeat is only a matter of time." ”
"How can you defeat it in the first place?" After several games, Wu Qing has tried every mechanism in the game, "The entire federation has no sense of crisis at all. You can't conscript when you have the opportunity, and when you really get beaten to the doorstep, it's too late to conscript. ”
"Yes." Shen Wen also said, "The strategy on the side of the intellectual body is very simple, just a flip-flop." ”
"Yes, billions of attack ships at a time, tens of billions of attack ships...... A wave of A's came and took it away. ”
"It's just a game," Xu Yan, who had been watching the two of them play games, interjected, "Is it true that fighting a war is the same as this?" ”
From Xu Yan's point of view, this game is quite boring, no, it should be said that it is so boring that it is simply boring!
There are no beautiful graphics, no exciting battles, and no eye-catching meat sales, players sit in the same room from beginning to end, except for a small number of videos, most of the information is that those advisors take turns to report in, either to report the progress of the plan, or to report the good and bad news that has come out, and then let the player make decisions.
But just like what Shen Wen and Wu Qing just said, it is difficult for the two sides to have any game in this process, and there is a strategy from beginning to end in terms of intelligence and body.
As long as you don't start a war with humanity when you are at a disadvantage in the early stage, as long as you use all kinds of other means to delay the war, the options are not only abundant, but also simple - such as inciting a group within the Federation to protest, or issuing an ambiguous public declaration of peace...... And then there will always be a delay in the war within the Federation because of these actions.
Judging from the content of the game, the biggest reason seems to be because the Federators subconsciously think that AI is their creation - the same way parents feel when they look at their children. Even if they quarrel and turn their faces, as long as children show weakness, they are often easy to relent.
Players who can play a lot know that as long as they wait enough time for the mind to be in their possession - the only thing he needs to do during this time is to keep creating.
Wait until the Mind Body converts all the masses within its control range into attack ships - until the number exceeds the fleet that the entire Federation can control. Although the Federation's industrial capacity is strong, the combat effectiveness of the army in space is still limited by the number of people - if two people control a spaceship, 23 billion Federation people can control a maximum of 11.5 billion attack ships......
Tens of billions of warships sound like a remarkable number, more or less within the reach of the "astronomical" side, but such a reluctant "astronomical number" is at best nothing more than a man-made meteorite belt among the various genuine astronomical units involved in galactic warfare.
Shen Wen and Wu Qing glanced at each other, if they said that when they first started playing the game, their thoughts were almost the same as Xu Yan's, but now, it was difficult for them to convince themselves to think so.
The details of the whole game, almost every detail, can be found in reality.
Although some people on the Internet say that this game is a spoof of reality, because the intellectual body is designed to be too strong. No matter what the player does, as long as the war progresses to the later stages, the Federation will almost inevitably face the end.
But in Wu Qing's view, the reason why the game is designed this way, and even sacrifices the gameplay for it, because it is not balanced at all, is largely because the game's authors believe in this kind of realism. This is a reality-based deduction game, and at the end of each game, they are invited to join a chat group - a place for all players who play the game to communicate.
Because they were afraid of leaking their identities, Wu Qing and Shen Wen did not dare to enter, but from the search on the Internet, it is not difficult for the two of them to understand that this exchange group is inclined to a certain political attitude - they support the war initiated by the government, because they have expected that in this war, the later the federal side moves, the more passive it becomes, and if it is late to a certain extent, it will be the fate of losing the war.
"How many people are playing this game?" Xu Yan asked curiously.
"Not much, a few million in total."
"What about this group?"
"Tens of thousands."
"According to what you say, the more than 20 billion people in the entire federation are not as good as these tens of thousands of people playing games?"
"If the final outcome is like this, it is true, and it is not only these tens of thousands of people, but that this game has only screened out tens of thousands of people at present," Shen Wen said, and then he asked Wu Qing again, "You say, will this game be made by the government?" Rendering the enemy a little more powerful will make it easier for them to recruit troops. ”
Wu Qing shook his head: "If this federal government really had to be so smart, it wouldn't do such a thing to us." As a result, it was all done, and it was smashed......"
Speaking of this, Xu Yan hated: "These bastards are just like the Empress Dowager Cixi...... Sooner or later, an eight-nation coalition will have to get this revenge back! ”
Wu Qing and Shen Wen looked at each other and smiled, knowing that Xu Yan didn't understand what he was talking about at all. What about the Eight-Nation Alliance, if this civilization is really close to the earth, the earth civilization is the Qing government - no, it is far inferior, at best, it can only be regarded as the indigenous people of a small island in the Pacific Ocean.
"I think we should take the initiative to go out and contact people," Shen Wen continued with the topic just now, "It's not a matter of hiding like this...... We're not here just to protect ourselves, we're here to get things done. ”
"But it is said that the outside is full of people looking for us now," Xu Yan is most worried about this, watching the news at night every day, for fear that he will suddenly be caught one day. Even though this is a game world, a virtual space, but every time I enter the door, I still like to lock it, like a thief, "I'm experienced, and I was involved in spreading the word back then...... When I was working on a project, because I had to keep it confidential, I usually had to make a report when I went out. ”
"I have also checked during this time," Shen Wen said of his opinion, "As far as the government's search is concerned, as long as we maintain a relatively low frequency of contact with the outside world, security is still guaranteed." ”
"What do you mean?" Xu Yan blinked.
"As long as we don't talk to other people," Wu Qingdao, "how low?" ”
"Probably the number of people who communicate with foreign countries every day is not more than one or two million."
"One or two million?" Wu Qing was puzzled, "How can we communicate with one or two million people at the same time?" Wu Qing was puzzled.
"Brother, you don't understand this," Xu Yan interjected, "You can broadcast live." I see a lot of people on the Internet just watching other people play games. ”
Wu Qing patted his head and immediately reacted - I have to say that he is really inferior to Xu Yan in this regard, because he usually sees less.
Shen Wen continued: "The main thing is to check the live broadcast, and there are some important game competitions. The federal government apparently thinks we're going to be reaching out to other people on the internet right now, stirring up public opinion across the federation......"
"The federal government really thinks of us," Wu Qingxiao said, "inciting speech and subverting the regime...... Feelings have put aliens under the party? The underground party can't be so stupid. ”
"The Confederation has experienced thousands of years of long peace, and in this regard...... It definitely can't be compared with the earth civilization that has just ended the war," Shen Wen felt that this phenomenon was understandable, "This kind of investigation method is only one of their ideas, and the other is diametrically opposite, they will also check people who are not in contact with the outside world at all." ”
"Do you want to be checked if you don't go online?"
"That's right," Wu Qing spent the past two days mainly studying the details of the game, and Shen Wen was more concerned about the Internet, "Ordinary people in the Federation also keep in touch with the outside world at any time in the game. ”
Wu Qing understood: "What if we meet the government's spies?" I've heard that the government sent more than 20 million people into the game! ”
"So what?" Wu Qingdao, "As long as we insist on communicating in the virtual world, we don't go to the second earth, let alone the first earth...... They can't help us. ”
"Of course, it's not difficult to get in touch, but the difficult thing is what we say to others," Wu Qingdao, "after all, we're not from the Federation." ”
"It's best to think like you," Shen Wen said, "Actually, have you noticed that in the virtual world, most people are reluctant to admit that they are from the Federation." ”
"It's like surfing the Internet on our planet," Xu Yan said, "and who would want to admit that they are just ordinary people." Most people are proud of what they have achieved in the virtual world, and no one will mention what they have achieved in reality. ”
Wu Qing and Shen Wen shook their heads at the same time.
Not wanting to admit that you are a member of the Federation and not wanting to admit that you are an ordinary earthling are actually two different things entirely.
This is also the biggest difference between the Federation and the Earth's network.
On the earth, ordinary people will pretend to be big money on the Internet, and they eat fast food every day when they are poor, but they still have to come up with a big meal. Obviously, I usually ride an electric car, but I have the key to BMW in my circle of friends. Everyone says that they are an abandoned house, but in their bones they envy others for having mines at home, and the online world is just a substitute for unsatisfactory real life.
Only people who are very unhappy in real life will go online every day and indulge in the online world.
But here in the Federation, it's the other way around, and everyone is trying to show off what they've achieved in the virtual world - someone has witnessed an important milestone in a major game, someone has successfully completed a super difficult game, and someone has destroyed the world in the shortest amount of time in the game...... As for reality, only people who are extremely lacking in the spiritual world will go to reality to find a sense of existence.
"In the online world of the Federation, where linguistic weirdness is the norm, on the contrary, if we learn to use their most formal official language, the most standard way of dealing with people, it will seem serious and suspicious - they never speak that way in the virtual world. Aren't we playing this game right now? It's very simple, just go to their game discussion group and talk about games...... In fact, it doesn't matter what is discussed, the point is that through other people, we can carry out certain actions in reality. ”
"For example?" Wu Qing looked at Shen Wen.
"For example, trying to contact the intellectual, and in the entire federation, this kind of communication with the intellectuals has always been the norm among the people......," Shen Wen said, "If the search and rescue team carries out this rescue mission as planned, Yevgeny must be there on the Zhiti side." As long as he knows the news......"
Wu Qing and Shen Wen glanced at each other, unlike their current state, Yevgeny was a "real" member of the search and rescue team, as long as he knew and confirmed their current situation - then they could get in touch with the search team.
For the situation they encountered now, Wu Qing and Shen Wen both had a deep uneasiness in their hearts, on the one hand, they felt almost hopeless mentally. - What could be more difficult to accept than being just a copy of someone else, or a virtual copy.
On the other hand, they can't help but feel curious about this new environment - in fact, in terms of their lives in the virtual world, they are not much worse than the earth.
The virtual body doesn't need to eat, drink, or even sleep, and can maintain 24 hours of energy to play games.
In Xu Yan's words, they have now become those immortals in the Ascension Realm.
But the three of them now understand that they can't be immortals, and people who are suitable for being immortals will not stay in the fairy world every day, but they still want to go down to earth to live an earthly life.
Needless to say, Xu Yan is Wu Qing and Shen Wen, and now their minds are full of delicious food, good drink, and the familiar life on the earth, after all, no matter how good this virtual paradise is, it is not designed for them - all the eating, drinking, and enjoyment in the virtual world...... They can't understand the beauty of the virtual world at all...... From the aesthetic point of view of the earthlings, it is a group of mother rats.
