Chapter 444: Casting a Long Line of Fishing
"Isar, I didn't expect you kid to use a long sword!"
"Damn, Isar, have you ever learned swordsmanship, how can you wield it so skillfully!"
"I feel a little awkward about holding the controller in my hand, it doesn't seem to be as easy as a gamepad."
"You idiot! Is it convenient for gamepads to have this grip? You're not skilled yet, of course you'll feel awkward, look at Isar, it's only been less than two minutes, and you can actually play tricks I'm here, draw your sword and slash, and put your sword into the sheath! Damn it, Isar, don't show it off in front of us! ”
Edward exits the control panel and finds himself in a medieval-like European town, with a row of weapons racks next to it.
The streets of the whole town are very wide, and it is better to say that it is a street than a square.
Thousands of people are throwing punches and kicks or fiddling with weapons in the square.
Edward wasn't here to play, he didn't join the crowd of fanatics, but calmly watched the scene around him.
The granite floor on the ground, the texture, the color looks the same as the real thing, there is a sense of antiquity of the years, look up, the blue sky, accompanied by the slowly wriggling white clouds, make people have a sense of scattered and long.
The simulated scene is excellent, with a three-dimensional effect, as if you are there.
Just as he was in the middle of it, the streets he saw grew from near to far, and the scenery gradually became smaller and smaller.
In addition, there is also a vision setting, and according to the relevant data filled in by yourself when registering, the distant scenery gradually becomes blurred, completely imitating the distance reached by real eyesight.
The sound of players pausing on the streets of the town, the sound of fists, kicks, and weapons in the wind, and the shouts of joy are also fading away and lightening, which is very realistic.
Except for the lack of real physical touch, everything is the same as the real environment!
It's too real, this may be the limit of what can be done under the existing technical conditions!
Can we in the United States build such a realistic virtual scene?
Edward was frustrated, and had to accept a fact that he couldn't believe: the virtual reality technology of the United States may still be a big gap with Infinity!
He can only comfort himself, some unknown research institutions in the United States have been able to create a scene that is a hundred times more real than this, and the reason why they have not introduced the same virtual reality technology to the market is just that they disdain it for civilian use, or that they have not had time to launch it.
He stood in a complicated heart for a long time, and finally discovered a technical flaw of Infinity Company, or what he thought was a technical flaw: all the people here are dressed in the same way, their eyes, nose, mouth and ears, including their dress!
He had been standing here for so long, and he had not seen any sign of Isar and the others: of course, even if they were standing in front of him, he would not recognize them!
He felt that his self-esteem had finally been satisfied.
At least, infinity companies are not omnipotent, and the physical characteristics of individuals, they do not do it.
He tried to force himself to think about the worst places.
Suddenly, for some reason, his vision began to tilt, and before he could come to his senses, he had already fallen to the ground.
Edward felt dizzy, and the sudden change of scene made him feel a little sick and want to vomit.
He took off his virtual glasses and gasped for air, and after a while, he was shocked for a while.
Putting on his glasses again and entering the town square, he saw a person with no expression, standing in front of him: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to fall down so without kicking, you are Edward, I saw you standing here stupidly, guessing that it was you, so I kicked you lightly, and as a result, you fell." ”
Listen to the voice, it's Isar.
Kicked me, why didn't I feel it?
Edward was still sitting on the ground, his brain racing, and he burst out laughing.
Infinity's technology is nothing more than that, there is no hint of being attacked, there is no sense of touch, and the body in the game is like a ghost, this is the virtual reality technology they boast of, laughing to death!
He didn't think that since Infinity had even taken into account the size of the scenery and the degree of blurred clarity, how could it not think of a tactile solution.
Perhaps, Edward had already thought of it, but in his heart, he was not willing to admit this reality at all.
Seeing him kicked down by himself, Isar laughed inexplicably and couldn't help but be stunned.
This kid can't be a broken brain, why kick him, and kick him laughing? Is this man a masochist, or is he a fool in the first place?
A few other game fans in the same dormitory gathered around and said to Isar: "Isar, don't pay attention to this kid, he's demented, like a fool, you teach us how to use a sword, how to pull it out quickly. Closing the knife? ”
Isar looked at Edward, who was still laughing, and wanted to shrug his shoulders, but he couldn't do such fine movements in the game, so he had to ignore the stupid boy, stepped aside, and began to teach his companions the attack moves of the longsword with great interest.
The sound in the game is far and near, and it is the same as in the real physical world.
Even though they used the method of intra-team communication, the neighbors spoke loudly, and those who were closer could still hear clearly.
Isar's series of wonderful sword combos just now also attracted the attention of others.
The 10,000 first beta players who signed up for the test are all avid game enthusiasts, but it doesn't mean that all of them are outstanding game masters.
People who can play tricks at the beginning of contact are a minority after all.
Hearing him explain the use of various swords in public, the people around him immediately stopped practicing and gathered around, and the people behind kept squeezing inward, hoping to hear more clearly.
If it weren't for the fact that there was no sense of touch in the game, these hundreds of people would have squeezed Isar and them to death.
As for Edward, he didn't laugh anymore, but he couldn't get up either, because there were so many people who came up that he was trampled on the ground by several pairs of feet, and he couldn't get up.
The people behind were despicable enough that not only did they not let Edward get up, but they used him as a stepping stone and deliberately stepped on him in order to stand higher and watch Isar's demonstration.
Edward's angry scolding, but he was taken as a deaf ear by others.
His stupid appearance just now, and his maniacal laughter, made everyone around him think of him as a fool, and no one would care about his opinion.
"Alright, it's time for the experience."
Dr. Li's voice suddenly appeared in everyone's ears, and before they could speak, they found the scene in front of them and switched to Dr. Li's laboratory.
Countless protests have come and gone, and for these game fans, they have just touched a little bit of the doorway, and they are popped, and there is nothing more saddish in the world than this!
However, Dr. Lee did not accept the protest, only to see him press a button, and all the sound became abruptly stopped, as if the electric switch had been pulled off.
Edward didn't even have time to familiarize himself with the grip before he was kicked out of the program.
Among these people, he was the only one who laughed happily, he was glad that he had finally escaped from the feet of others, the feeling of oppression that was trampled on his face was real.
"Don't worry, this is just a small scene experience program, and I will introduce you to more exciting content below to ensure that you don't feel bored." Dr. Li smiled and turned on the switch on the intercom again.
"Hurry up, let's get into that scene when we're done, let me get acquainted with it, I haven't learned how to use weapons yet!"
A voice provoked a wave of approval.
In fact, fans of the game are already very satisfied with the current demo effect, and they are so satisfied that they are eager.
Compared with the monotonous flat game, this virtual three-dimensional scene game is the difference between heaven and earth.
It's just that the game launched by Infinity is very rubbish, and they are ready to invest in it without hesitation.
Now, they just want to enter the square as soon as possible, familiarize themselves with the skills of using various weapons, and then start a duel with someone.
After all, no matter what the game, there is no more fun than human confrontation.
The technology that Infinity is currently demonstrating is enough for many of them to be satisfied.
In this era, the requirements of players are actually not high.
"Okay, then I'll cut it short and explain it briefly."
In the face of the enthusiastic players, Dr. Li could only scratch his head helplessly, and said at a faster pace: "What I introduced to you just now is the basic equipment, and we have also prepared a somatosensory tights."
Players who have been in a hurry for a long time took out their tights and put them on their bodies.
What else I don't understand about somatosensory tights is to create a relatively real game tactile atmosphere through the material of the clothes, so that players can better integrate into the game equipment.
As if petrified, Edward stiffened and leaned against the edge of the bed.
Just now he also laughed at Infinity Inc., which could not give players a more realistic game experience and could not simulate the sense of touch, so this Dr. Li gave him a slap in the face and launched a somatosensory tights.
He had looked at this dress for so long before, and he didn't understand its purpose, who knew that it was used for tactile effects.
He picked up the special garment and prepared to put it on himself.
Dr. Lee's voice sounded at the right time: "No, no, no, this tights are not worn on the outside, in order to have a stronger sense of touch, it is better to wear it on the inside"
A man took advantage of the guild's communication function and asked loudly, "What if I get dirty?" Can this dress be washed? ”
"If you wear it dirty, then buy a new set."
Dr. Li said humorously, but it was about to arouse public anger, and he quickly added: "In fact, next to the tights, there is also a plastic bag, which is a film made of biological materials, which can be attached to the inside, and the film is dirty, so you just need to tear it off and throw it away." ”
"The biomaterial is easily degradable and does not pollute the environment, and there are ten patches of film per bag, which costs less than eight euros."
"Damn, Infinity Inc. will make money!"
I don't know who it was, and scolded on the public communication channel.
Eight euros is not expensive, but it can't stand the crowd, such a fun virtual game, it is foreseeable that thousands of people will play in it.
It's no surprise that millions of people are online at the same time.
Eight euros a bag of bio-film can also make Infinity a small profit.
