Chapter 385: Extreme Speed

After roughly drawing the structure of the entire driving simulator, Zhong Ming came to Yunuo Technology and found Lin Xiaoguang.

Although Lin Xiaoguang had also talked to Zhong Ming about the driving simulator many times before, it was inevitable that he would be a little shocked when he really saw such a detailed design plan.

First of all, the first feeling, this driving simulator, is really good-looking!

Whether it is the base or the spherical main part, it gives people a feeling of just right, with smooth lines and perfect structure, and some exterior designs have been made on the spherical cockpit that can only accommodate one person, giving this driving simulator a unique sense of technology.

It stands to reason that the design should be designed by specialized personnel, and Zhong Ming did it single-handedly, and this level is obviously higher than that of designers who specialize in exterior design!

Just by looking at the appearance, this driving simulator wins at the starting line.

Looking at the internal structure, the layout is reasonable and very ergonomic.

This includes the size and structure of the seat, as well as the structure of the steering wheel and the location of the instrument panel...... These seemingly detailed aspects have also been taken into account.

The wrap-around screen provides a very wide field of view, which is designed to be much wider than the general display-based driving simulator, and has higher clarity than the conventional VR headset driving simulator.

"Mr. Zhong is awesome, the completion of this program design is really high. But...... Mr. Zhong is prepared for the cost of this thing, and your plan will definitely not be cheap. Lin Xiaoguang gave Zhong Ming a preventive shot in advance.

Zhong Ming smiled: "This machine is sold as a luxury product, and it is hard to pile up materials, without considering the price." ”

Lin Xiaoguang nodded, of course he knew this. Just this simulator, it's not expensive to sell for 50,000 yuan, and it's impossible to count on small profits and quick turnover, so it can only be "not open for three years, open for three years".

Of course, it's not so exaggerated, but this simulator can only go the way of luxury, with high quality and high premium, and is sold exclusively to the rich. For example, some idle people who have nothing to do and like to buy all kinds of luxury cars to play, when this simulator comes out, most of them will buy it to experience it.

"Mr. Zhong, why is this also a visual capture system? If you're driving normally, you don't need it, do you? Lin Xiaoguang was a little puzzled.

Visual capture system, not cheap. The Alpha bracelet is equipped with a visual capture system, which increases the price of this device by at least a few thousand yuan, and Zhong Ming requires a higher precision visual capture device to be installed on the driving simulator, and it is a complete system, consisting of a visual capture group composed of a full 8 visual capture devices.

The reason why there are so many things to do is because the screen of the driving simulator is too large, and it has to be taken care of in the front, back, left and right, so that the visual capture system can track the player when looking in any direction.

This visual capture system alone may increase the cost of this driving simulator by another 10,000 or 20,000 yuan.

In other words, the cost of this driving simulator is basically the same as the most expensive driving simulator on the market.

"Visual capture systems, of course, have other uses. Mr. Lin, look at this. Zhong Ming said this and sent a design document to Lin Xiaoguang.

"Extreme Speed...... Mr. Zhong, the content of this game is really rich enough......"

After reading this design document, Lin Xiaoguang couldn't help but sigh.

Sure enough, Zhong Ming is Zhong Ming, if you don't make a move, it's enough, and when you make a move, it's a big deal.

The name of the new game is "Extreme Speed", and from the name, this is a very regular racing game, but in fact, Zhong Ming designed the content for this game is much richer than the regular racing game!

Of course, for Lin Xiaoguang, he is still most concerned about what this action visual capture system is used for, after all, it directly raises the cost by one or two thousand, and if it is only used to achieve some unnecessary functions, it will be very boring.

Now Lin Xiaoguang knows that this visual capture system is designed to allow players to shoot while driving a flying car.

That's right, Extreme Speed isn't just a racing game, it actually has three main ways to play: racing, modding, and shooting.

Needless to say, racing is a regular way to play in all driving simulators. As in other speeding games, players can experience the thrill of racing in a speeding car.

Unlike Zhong Ming's previous racing games, the speedy cars' track beacons are all in the air, and the tracks tend to navigate many complex environments - such as navigating between skyscrapers in a bustling city, and sometimes avoiding sudden traffic.

However, there is also a nostalgia mode in Extreme Speed, where the player is no longer driving a flying car that can go to the sky, but a regular car that can only be driven on the ground. Nostalgia mode is not the mainstream mode of the game, but it is also an important addition.

The content of these racing games is basically available in other driving simulators, and even if "Extreme Speed" can do a better job in terms of realism, graphics and environmental performance, it is not enough to form an absolute advantage.

There are two other ways to play Extreme Speed.

Many racing games have the ability to mod, but they are very limited. The modifications allowed in the game are often limited to a certain vehicle model, and players can change its tires, brake plates and other accessories to improve the vehicle's handling, grip and other data, and modify the vehicle's performance to a better level. In addition, the appearance of the vehicle is modified, the color is changed, the paint is changed, and the DIY is carried out freely.

But this kind of modification function, to put it bluntly, is just changing skins, and it is all a small fight.

"Extreme Speed" allows players to start from scratch and piece together a unique vehicle with a variety of different parts, as for the personalized appearance of the vehicle, painting, etc., it is naturally allowed to DIY at will.

This is why Zhong Ming made the main control screen of the driving simulator a touch screen: players can directly use this touch screen to DIY the vehicle.

As for the production system of the vehicle, it may seem complicated at first glance, but in reality it is not that complicated.

In Zhong Ming's previous life, there were many similar games, such as "Genesis Chariot". The vehicle is divided into many different modules, such as chassis mounts, wheels, cockpit, engine, powertrain, guns, radar, etc., which the player can assemble freely, and even most of the parts can be moved at will.

The same is true for Extreme Speed, where the vehicles in the game can be split into different modules, including powertrains, cockpits, chassis brackets, etc., and even the body can be split into different structures such as hoods, doors, and roof covers, all of which allow for twisting, bending, and adjustment to a certain extent, so that parts of different vehicles can be freely spliced together.

At the same time, players can modify the vehicle according to their own needs, such as adding a control module to improve the handling of the vehicle, adding a power system to increase the vehicle's ultimate speed, adding weapons to the car can increase firepower, and different weapons have different strike effects.

Of course, all of these modifications and improvements are gradual, and the player has a "mechanic level", and the higher this level, the more modifications can be performed. As you level up, you'll unlock more weapons to arm your vehicle.

At the same time, all kinds of general parts also need to be obtained by lottery in the game, and some key parts have certain rare properties and cannot be obtained at random.

And the weapon system added to the vehicle in the modification is in the service of the third big game - the shooting system.

"Gun Car Ball" has always been the three mainstream game content for Western players, and there are many games with "gun" and "car" at the same time, but it is often impossible for players to play both at the same time.

A typical example is GTA, where players either drive or sit in a car to shoot, and although in some cases the player is required to shoot while driving, most players tend to be scrambling, and the fun of the game itself is difficult to guarantee.

After all, for most people, it is difficult to do two things, and it is too difficult to drive to see the road and aim and shoot.

Zhong Ming's solution is to determine the player's line of sight through a visual capture system, mark a crosshair on the screen, and make the fire button directly on the steering wheel. As long as the player focuses their eyes on the direction they want to hit, whether it is in front, flank, or rear, and press the fire button at this time, they can shoot in that direction.

Combined with the large field of view of the driving simulator, players can get a great shooting experience while driving.

……

Lin Xiaoguang read the design document and said with emotion: "Mr. Zhong is really generous, such a rich game content, ordinary designers don't just do it." ”

There are three major ways to play Extreme Speed, and there are even more game modes, including regular racing, underground racing, modified vehicle races, special missions, and more.

To put it simply, in this game, players can simply go to the car race, or they can participate in some underground races, which are more exciting, more violent, and may be chased by the police, in addition, players may also receive some special missions, and will use the speeding car to attack some specific targets.

The map of Xtre Speed is a completely fictional island with urban areas, wastelands, and a variety of different environments. The island is a mecca for car racing, with drivers from all over the world coming here in the hope of making a name for themselves.

Players take on the role of a fledgling driver, where they have to compete in various races, get rankings, modify cars, and complete mission after mission.

The game itself has a very simple plot, mainly to connect various game modes and allow players to get a better sense of substitution.

On top of that, Extreme Speed also allows players to create their own race modes, which can be turned into a brainless game if you simply like to drive a car and shoot guns.
