Chapter 318: Flood Virtual Platform
The first test of Sword Art Online is over.
Netizens on the Internet also blew up.
Just seven days.
The game has taken off a virtual wave at home and abroad, and it is almost everywhere there is talk of the road.
As soon as the test ended, a large number of videos began to emerge on the Internet, which made netizens greedy.
Among them, the most popular is the first-view video of the kobold lord.
"It's so handsome! This boss fight is simply amazing! ”
"Especially when I was fighting with the knife, I was really excited, and I felt that the knife was about to hit my face."
"Is this what it's like to be in the middle of a boss fight? It looks so exciting. ”
"I really want to go in and have fun, this is the fantasy adventure world."
"I can't stand it, when will this game be launched?"
"Don't test it, just serve it like this."
"Ahhh Why didn't I qualify for the test! ”
After watching the video, the audience cried.
I can't wait to run to the Honghuang headquarters now and grab a virtual helmet.
This time they were really sour.
I regret that I didn't pay hard.
During the first test, it was okay, at least I was able to go to the live broadcast room to have a good time.
But after the first test was over, they couldn't sit still, and even those players who tested the first test ran out one after another, asking when the next test would be.
Because only those who have played this game know how appealing it is to a player.
Don't say anything else.
Light is the world's first virtual game.
It's enough to drive countless people crazy.
This also led to:
Honghuang's official account was almost destroyed.
Click on it and see that it is all comments urging the online to send blades, and the number of likes and comments directly exceeded 100 million in just one day, reaching an unprecedented level.
And at this very moment.
A new announcement has been issued.
Announce their current game development progress.
[Information that can be released at the moment]
Panareze (24th floor): The 24th floor is a lake and marsh floor that is mostly covered by water, and the main block "Panareze" is designed to build an artificial island in the middle of a huge lake, and then extend from the island to a slender pontoon bridge in all directions, connecting countless small islands. 】
[Defending Boss: Kraken Garr (A combination of Naga and an octopus, with the ability to control the tides, players who are good at naval warfare can deal with it.】 )】
……
[Floria (47th floor): This floor is called the "Garden of Flowers", and not only the street, but also the entire floor is covered with flowers. In the labyrinth of the outer circle to the south, a small bridge crosses the river to reach the hill, and the road wraps around the hill to the top of the hill, where the flower of life blooms and is an important tool for resurrecting demons. 】
[Guardian Boss: Frelia (A terrifying monster mutated from the flower demon, surrounded by vines all over the labyrinth, the body is beautiful and charming, and has the powerful effect of psychedelic enemies. )】
Two floor information, with two screenshots attached.
Especially the second screenshot of the Garden of Flowers, which instantly hit the hearts of countless female netizens.
"Wow! What a beautiful sea of flowers! ”
"The name is beautiful!"
"Is this a scenario that would be in the game?"
"Is it possible to experience this sea of flowers in person with virtual games?"
"If you can live there, this life is worth it!"
The endless sea of flowers in the screenshot, as well as the petals flying in the air, is definitely a big killer for the girl.
made those female netizens who were just casually watching and not playing games have a strong interest in this game.
And they also noticed that there was only a two-word difference between the name of the floor on the 47th floor and the name of the boss on the floor.
I can't help but make up poignant and sad stories in my mind.
For example, the flower girl did not hesitate to sacrifice her life to save her lover, but she was betrayed by her lover, and finally degenerated into a flower demon and was trapped in the tower with resentment.
Another example is that the two sisters were originally elves of the sea of flowers, but they fell in love with a person at the same time, and because of various misunderstandings, they finally embarked on the road of opposites.
In short, it is a romance.
Compared with.
Ordinary players pay more attention to the information revealed by the introduction of the floor.
"Good guy, you've reached the 47th floor!"
"Why don't you bring it up for testing?"
"In the 24-story water world, I am most afraid of the deep sea!"
"Naga and octopus combined, tentacles playing?"
"I'm more concerned about the demon mentioned on the 47th floor, can you catch the succubus as a demon?"
"I prefer bug girls."
"Huh? Something is wrong with you. ”
The information from the two floors sent by the flood desolation once again set off a lot of discussions.
As long as you have read the original book, you know that each floor of Ayn Grant has a different geographical style, which can be called a huge virtual small world.
Each floor is like starting a new adventure.
The attraction to players is not insignificant.
At the same time, I am even more amazed that the virtual technology of the flood has reached such a mature point.
This makes other big manufacturers more anxious.
Immediately improve the R&D progress to ensure that you can make your own virtual device as soon as possible.
For them, time is of the essence.
Whoever can take the lead in establishing an advantage on a strong virtual track will have more say in the future.
Now that the first one has been taken by the flood famine, it is naturally impossible for the second family to give up its name.
"Smash me! Money is not a problem, as long as it is developed one step ahead of other opponents, we will have a share of this huge virtual market! ”
In the R&D departments of major manufacturers, people come and go, and they are in full swing to conduct technical analysis of the helmets of the Honghuang generation that have just been acquired.
However.
They found themselves underestimating the difficulty of dismantling the technology.
For a whole week.
It is only a small part of the basic hardware that has been disassembled, and it is almost impossible to obtain the core technology in it.
So they had to find another way.
Relying on the data information in hand, with the dismantled hardware data, it consumes a huge amount of money for independent development.
At that time, the realism may not be able to catch up with the flood for the time being, but it can be far ahead of other manufacturers.
This.
Chen Lin, who was in the wilderness, could naturally imagine it.
At this time, we also paid close attention to the deployment of manpower to summarize and improve the information returned from this test.
"According to the information provided by those players, it has been basically determined that the quality of sleep during the game is linked to realism, and the higher the realism, the closer it is to deep sleep."
within the R&D department.
The employee in charge of data collection said to Chen Lin.
"In other words, if the fidelity is only twenty or thirty percent, it is only equivalent to light sleep?"
Chen Lin was a little surprised, it was the first time he knew about this kind of thing.
After all, he has only just started to get into virtual technology.
"Yes."
The employee nodded, and swiped his finger on the tablet: "According to statistics, the realism of our "Flood Generation" has reached 70%, which is just enough to ensure basic sleep and can start production." ”
"70%?"
Chen Lin's eyes lit up, which was much higher than he expected.
You must know that the degree of realism is more difficult to improve later, even if you sleep normally, the deep sleep time is only about two hours.
It's good to be able to get a basic level of sleep right from the start.
And 70% of the realism is not much different from reality.
Because no one can stay 100% awake all day.
"Very good, then let's arrange it and start mass production, our promotion plan should also be put on the agenda, we must occupy the high ground before other manufacturers."
"Okay, I'll arrange it."
The employee responded, and turned to leave.
Half an hour later.
A sensational news on the Internet.
Appears below the official account of the Flood Wilderness.
[Honghuang Studio (official): After countless days and nights of research and development, the realism of the "Honghuang Generation" virtual helmet has reached 70%, and it can run stably. 】
[At the same time, the world's first virtual game platform "Honghuang" has been created, you can upload and sell your works, the platform will take a commission, and create a second world with us! 】
The announcement was just over a hundred words.
But as soon as it was released, the whole Internet exploded directly.
Virtual platform!
Honghuang has actually created a virtual platform!
“WTF? What do you mean? ”
"Honghuang wants to build a game platform like steam?"
"! Wouldn't that be able to play all kinds of virtual games on the Honghuang platform in the future? ”
"70% realism, what is this concept?"
"It is said that the R&D progress of other large manufacturers is only less than 10%."
"Shhh So fierce? ”
Netizens were shocked.
The manufacturers were also shocked.
They didn't expect Hong Huang to spend so much money, and directly created a virtual platform.
No wonder he dared to stand up to the world and publicly announced his withdrawal from the console platform.
What kind of exit is this?
It's just a direct flip of the host's table.
Because the host, like the virtual headset, requires additional equipment support.
The virtual helmet is equivalent to the upper replacement of the host, and it belongs to the kind of hanging.
Just because it can replace sleep time, there is no possibility of competition for the host in front of the virtual!
At that time, the virtual industry may fully replace the host, and form a new three-point world situation with PCs and mobile phones!
As for how much weight it can occupy.
It depends on the future development of the virtual industry.
"Hong Huang's kick is really ruthless, and it directly kicked on the main artery of Ren Tiandi."
"Not to mention the major artery, it's okay if you don't kick it to death."
"In the future, the game industry is going to change."
The major game manufacturers like to hear it, and they don't sympathize with Ren Tiandi because of this.
After all, they are usually made difficult by each other.
Anyway, it's just a different platform.
And the rise of the virtual industry is in everyone's eyes, and the potential contained in it is huge, definitely far beyond the host, and they are too late to be excited.
Many people who are not capable of developing virtual devices have been impatient to send people to the Honghuang headquarters to talk about cooperation and sharing.
Then they geared up and discussed the project.
Get ready to develop your first virtual game and take your place in this emerging industry.
……
Meanwhile.
Far away in the neon country of Ren Tiandi headquarters.
"Bang!!"
A loud bang echoed through the conference room.
Furukawa sat in the first place with a grim face, looking at the report that his subordinates had just submitted.
He never expected that the first to create a virtual game platform would be Hong Huang.
If it is said that the previous Honghuang was just a game company, it could not shake their behemoth Ren Tiandi.
The current flood is undoubtedly stepping on their lifeline, how can he not be angry.
"President, what should we do now? If this continues, the entire host market will not be able to be saved. ”
A senior executive at the bottom couldn't help but say.
As early as the advent of virtual technology, they expected that the host would be replaced, and they also prepared early and invested a lot of money in research and development.
But after all.
Still a step slower.
"I think the only way is to talk to the wilderness, and there is nothing that cannot be solved by interests." Someone spoke immediately.
"Humph! Let's keep our heads down, what will people outside think of us? You are trampling on the dignity of the group! ”
"Akita-san, do you think your dignity is more important, or is our overall interest more important?"
"I also agree with my predecessors, now is not the time to think about face."
"If I were you, I would have committed suicide by seppuku in shame!"
"What do you mean by that!?"
In the blink of an eye, everyone in the conference room quarreled fiercely, and everyone had different opinions, and they were in a posture of not letting anyone go.
"That's it!"
Furukawa slammed his fist on the table.
Everyone's hearts skipped a beat, and they closed their mouths instantly.
The noisy conference room gradually became quiet.
"Arrange it, increase investment in virtual technology research and development, and make finished products before this year anyway, although the flood has taken the lead, but it will take time to develop, with the group's financial resources, enough for us to catch up!"
After saying this, Furukawa got up and left the conference room, leaving everyone looking at each other.
Ultimately.
The peacemaker sighed, his eyes full of worry.
Can they really, wait until then?
