Chapter 5 Three major systems

Coming to the grocery store downstairs again, Zhang Xiaohua was helping to look after the store, and when she saw Bai Lidu coming, Zhang Xiaohua said happily:

"Brother Adu, is it true that my dad said that you can help me tutor in the future?"

"Of course it's true, although I took the college entrance examination five or six years ago, the foundation of that year should still be there, if you don't understand, you can ask me."

"That's great, by the way, this is your breakfast," Zhang Xiaohua said, and brought over a few vegetable buns and a cup of soy milk.

"Today's New Year, my dad said that he asked you to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with us in the evening"

"Okay, where's your dad?"

"My dad went to the market to do some more New Year's goods, and he will be back in a while"

When Zhang Xuecheng returned to the store door on an electric tricycle pulling a few bags of fish, eggs, vegetables, fruits, Spring Festival couplets and other New Year's goods, Bai Lidu was explaining a math problem to Zhang Xiaohua.

"Xiaobai, you're here, just do me a favor and send the New Year's goods home with me"

"Okay, Uncle Zhang, I'm causing you trouble again"

"Didn't you say okay, call me Brother Zhang?" Zhang Xuecheng heard Bai Lidu call himself Uncle Zhang, a little strange.

"Dad, I call Brother Adu my brother, why do you let him call you big brother?" Zhang Xiaohua asked puzzled.

"What do children know, this is my work with you Adugo"

"Xiaohua, there is an implicit condition that needs to be taken into account when calculating this question, you do it again according to what I just said, and I will help your father" Bai Lidu stood up and walked towards the door after speaking.

"Brother Zhang, let's go," Bai Lidu walked up to Zhang Xuecheng and whispered.

Zhang Xuecheng's home is very close to Shipai Village, just opposite a street close to Shipai Village, is the old community built decades ago, on the way there, Bai Lidu and Zhang Xuecheng agreed, in front of Zhang Xuecheng's wife and children in the future, or called Uncle Zhang, only when the two of them were present, then called Brother Zhang.

Seeing that he was at the gate of the Sunshine Community, Zhang Xuecheng swiped his card and passed through the gate of the community.

"By the way, Brother Zhang, I have something I want to trouble you," Bai Lidu said

"You're welcome, what's the matter?"

"I can't renew the lease of the house upstairs, I see that you have a folding bed in your store, can you see if I can ...... it temporarily"

"What should I do, you just live in my store, it happens to be closed during the Spring Festival, and someone needs to watch after the door closes at night" Without waiting for Bai Lidu to finish speaking, Zhang Xuecheng understood and readily agreed.

Two people took the elevator to the sixteenth floor with bags in their hands, and when Zhang Xuecheng opened the door of 1604, a middle-aged woman greeted him:

"You're back"

"Wife, this is the little white I mentioned to you," Zhang Xuecheng introduced.

"Hello Auntie" Bai Lidu followed into the house.

"Xiaobai, welcome to the house, these are slippers, quickly give me the things in your hand" Zhang Xuecheng's wife took a pair of slippers for Bai Lidu, and took the bag in Bai Lidu's hand.

"Xuecheng, you come to greet the guests, I'll prepare lunch" Zhang Xuecheng's wife finished and went to the kitchen to start working.

Zhang Xuecheng and Bai Lidu sat on the sofa in the living room, Zhang Xuecheng habitually used the remote control to press the TV, and the TV was showing the "My Moon War" column, and I saw a famous beautiful host of CCTV conducting an interview with several young players.

"Audience friends, in a dozen hours, the public beta of the world's high-profile virtual online game "Moon War" will come together with the Spring Festival of the Year of the Goat, at this exciting moment, our live broadcast room invited several captains of famous domestic teams, they are all top professional players in the field of professional e-sports in China, and they will talk about their opinions and opinions on this game that has detonated the world. First of all, I would like to invite Ye Chen, the captain of the [Ditian] team from the capital Yanjing City."

"Hello everyone, I'm Ye Chen, the current information released to the outside world of this game is very limited, or it can be said that there is no information, I can only express my humble opinion based on some online games in recent years, if a game wants to maintain its long-term vitality, the most important thing is its currency system."

"Oh? Why? The moderator asked a question at the right time

"In the past few decades, many classic games have been born in the virtual online game industry, but they are all dying out, the most fatal thing is that there is a problem in the design of the currency system, usually at the beginning of the operation of the game, the currency system can still operate normally, some hard-working coin farmers can still maintain a virtuous cycle, and some weapons and equipment can also circulate normally within an acceptable price, but once it reaches the middle and late stages of the game, the currency in the market begins to flood, and the exchange ratio between game currency and real currency begins to be out of balance,The best weapons and equipment are all sky-high,Just like that, you may not be able to buy,And with the bankruptcy of the currency farmers,The circulation of the market began to be sluggish,When most people have invested a lot of time and energy but can't get back a similar return,This game is coming to an end,It's like a real country,Since the founding of the country, it has been issuing currency,And its equivalent reserves linked to currency issuance have not increased,The first thing is inflation, If it continues and continues to deteriorate, it is the bankruptcy of the country's credit. ”

The host and several other invited pros also nodded thoughtfully.

"And what do you think of Moon Wars' currency system?" The moderator asks questions

"At this point, I believe that "Moon Wars" will not disappoint everyone, first of all, we all know that this game was developed to solve the mineral competition for the moon, and the mineral reserves on the moon can be regarded as the monetary equivalent reserves of this game, with the entire lunar mineral reserves to endorse, I believe that the exchange ratio between the currency in the game and the real currency should fluctuate in a reasonable range; Secondly, this game will usher in more than one billion players around the world, and in such a huge consumption environment, the probability of inflation will be very low; Finally, I would like to say that the virtual world created by this game can be treated as a country, where all players are citizens, and this country with a population of more than a billion people controls the resources on which the earth depends, and this country will have the highest credit rating! ”

"Very well said! Thank you Captain Ye Chen for your wonderful explanation, before the next guest explains, let's watch an advertisement, please don't go away" After the host finished speaking, the screen jumped to the advertisement

"Xiaobai, what Ye Chen said is very reasonable, it seems that our cooperation prospects are very good!" Zhang Xuecheng watched it very attentively just now, and also gave his own prediction.

"It makes sense, but it also tells us that in the future, it may be more difficult to obtain game currency, and the competition may be more fierce, and we must devote some energy to doing business, and only by circulating game currency can it reflect its value," Bai Lidu said.

"It's simple, anyway, I'm not good at killing monsters and leveling up and doing tasks, so I'll just be a full-time businessman." Zhang Xuecheng also gave his own opinions.

"There's no rush for this, wait for the game to start, and then see the situation."

At this time, the advertisement on the TV has ended, and the picture returns to the live broadcast room again:

"Audience friends, welcome to continue watching, the captain of the [Wonderland] team from Donghai City, Li Xiaoxiao" I saw that the TV screen was aimed at a female guest.

"Hello everyone, I'm Li Xiaoxiao, Captain Ye's analysis just now can be described as strategic, sobering, since Captain Ye has analyzed the monetary system, then I'll talk about the career system, at present, we don't know anything about the career system of the Moon War, but one thing is certain."

"Oh? Which point? The moderator asked

"Since it is a global player, because of regional cultural differences, the career system of the Moon War should not be the same, it will inevitably be a differentiated design, after all, it is obviously impossible to achieve universality for players in 200 countries around the world, so the career system faced by players around the world should be different."

"How could it be different?" The moderator continued

"For example, online games with Western backgrounds promote traditional professions such as warriors, hunters, and mages, and hunter occupations are differentiated into agile professions such as assassins, thieves, and rangers, while online games with oriental backgrounds like warriors, swordsmen, warlocks and other opposite professions, and some online games will also add some religion-related professions, such as paladins, priests, shamans, priests, warrior monks, Taoist priests, etc., and some online games will also add some non-human professions in order to enrich the background story of the profession, such as orcs, elves, dwarves, undead, demons, Demon barbarism and so on, I won't talk much about the topic of race, what I want to say is that if the career design of a game is too simple, it will inevitably not be able to cover a billion massive players, but if the design is too complicated, it will also create a lot of confusion and make players confused. ”

"And how do you think the class system for Moon War will be designed?" The moderator asked

"Hehe" Li Xiaoxiao actually laughed at the camera.

"I don't dare to say anything, I can only say that I guess, how to ignore the profession in foreign regions, for the profession in China, I guess there will definitely be samurai and swordsman, because this is in line with the image of the kung fu culture that we have established in the world, but I am actually more concerned about the career choice of female players, as the only female player present today, I think it is necessary to emphasize the importance of female careers on behalf of female players: First of all, not all female players like to fight and kill, Some female gamers play games just for beautiful clothes, cute pets, and they like to make friends, get married, etc., so aggressive classes may not be suitable for them; Secondly, female gamers are ingenious, patient and meticulous, and are more capable of some control-assisted professions; In addition, female gamers are usually sentimental and delicate, but sometimes they are paranoid, so it is best to set up some poignant backstories for female careers, preferably hidden professions, and more career-related achievement tasks or something; Finally, I want to say that the reason why we should pay special attention to female players is because the proportion of female players is extremely important to an online game, just like the professional balance that we have been emphasizing, the proportion of male and female players in the game also needs to be balanced, which is just like the harmony of yin and yang advocated by our traditional Chinese culture, if an online game can not attract female players, it is destined to not last long, some professional institutions have done relevant surveys, an online game, for every loss of a female nurse, there will be a loss of at least four male players. ”

...... pop, the host and other guests at the scene, as well as the audience at the scene, gave warm applause.

"Also as a woman, I especially agree with the opinion that Li Xiaoxiao just made, thank you Captain Xiaoxiao for your wonderful explanation, the same, we have to watch an advertisement next, don't go away, come back immediately" After the host finished speaking, advertisements continued to appear on TV.

"Xiaobai, what did Li Xiaoxiao mean by the nurse just now? Breastfeeding in the game? Zhang Xuecheng asked puzzled.

"Haha, how is it possible, isn't that an adult online game? The meaning of the nurse refers to the auxiliary profession that can add blood and defense to the team members, usually in multiplayer dungeons, the nurse is a necessary profession, and when facing more difficult monsters and bosses, the nurse's shot at a critical moment can usually make or break the success or failure. Bai Lidu explained.

"Then the male player can't be a wet nurse? It's really not okay, just pretend to be a female player. Zhang Xuecheng continued to ask questions.

"It depends on the game's occupation setting, some games allow this, but I don't think I can pretend to be a woman in the game of Moon War, because I associate my ID card when I bind my helmet, and I estimate that in terms of professional gender, there is no way to fake it."

"Audience friends, what you are watching is the 24-hour live broadcast of "My Moon War" column for you, welcome to continue watching, and now I invite the last guest of today, Xu Shijie, the captain of the [Hengyuan] team from Lingnan City, that is, Yangcheng"

"Ah ......" looked at the picture of Xu Shijie that appeared on TV, Bai Lidu was not so calm, it is very likely that this guy is looking for a hooligan to surround him, if it is not for his clever running fast, the consequence is likely to be disabled and hospitalized, but he was still drenched into a soup chicken, not only did the burn not go away, but he also had a severe cold, and what was even more unlucky was that he was treated as a beggar and met an acquaintance.

"Xiaobai, you said that he was the one who found hooligans to intercept you, right?" Zhang Xuecheng also saw it.

"Well, it's him," Bai Lidu nodded, also wanting to hear what this little bit had to say.

"Since the first two captains have made a wonderful analysis of the currency system and the career system, then I will talk about the control system, I was fortunate to be admitted to Lingnan University seven years ago to major in online game e-sports, according to my research on the development history of virtual online games in China, the control technology of virtual online games has experienced a process from simple to complex and then from complex to simple, AD 2016 was the first year of VR by the public, when the virtual reality technology was still very backward, all the control had to be through the hand-held game handle, at that time there was no VR headset, The head is wearing a cheap and rough VR eyepiece, and it is relatively simple to control, all through a few simple buttons on the gamepad, at that time, the main application field of VR is not virtual games, but VR movies, with the development and growth of VR games in the following years, more and more sensor control devices have begun to be added to the control, such as a 360-degree rotatable console that senses foot movement, VR suits that sense limb movement and body focus, and handheld devices are no longer a single handle, Swords, bows, crossbows, guns, etc. were developed for different games, and then VR began to stagnate in the development of control, when a player was full of sensors, the experience was not pleasant, VR games due to their complex equipment and high cost, more applications in the field of business operations; It was not until 2036 that the introduction of virtual real mirror control technology began to change, and after nearly 20 years of development, the control gloves have developed from the initial clumsy and can only complete simple gestures, to the close and lightweight and can completely many delicate movements and commands, and the voice control technology has also achieved a qualitative leap at the same time; In the past 20 years, the main direction of virtual reality control technology has been placed on the helmet, although the helmet is becoming more and more exquisite, and there are more and more functions, but it still can't overcome the two difficulties? ”

"Oh? What are the two difficulties? The moderator asked questions.

"Consciousness immersion technology and brainwave manipulation technology, just like what is usually described in online game novels, when mastering consciousness immersion technology, there is no need to use both eyes to watch the screen, players only need to dream in sleep to enter the game situation, and then they have to use brainwave control technology, that is, all the instructions and operations of the player in the game situation are controlled by brainwaves. Judging from the helmet equipment we got from the Moon Wars, it is clear that these two problems have not been solved, and we still have to keep our eyes on the game screen and still use the control gloves to complete the operation. ”

"Do you think these two key technologies can only be realized in online game novels?" The host asked thoughtfully.

"Not so pessimistic, this time there will be more than a billion players around the world to participate in this world-renowned game, such a large number of user groups is just a very good data collection and testing platform, I believe that Moonlight Technology will not let go of this opportunity to accelerate the pace of human science and technology, and I can predict that brainwave control technology should be developed earlier, as a player, I still hope to be able to use this dream game helmet as soon as possible, which will be the welfare of all gamers."

"Thank you Captain Xu for giving us a vivid and wonderful lesson on the history of the development of virtual online games, and we also hope that Moonlight Technology Company can develop the helmet that players dream of as soon as possible through the global operation of this game, and today's talk show is here, thank you for watching."
