Chapter 144 Do You Need a Driver's License to Play a Game?

Tianba Studio has been formalized, and the division of labor in the team has become clearer, which has not affected the normal operation of its games.

Players don't know any of this either.

They only know that according to the live broadcast of Emperor Dermatitis, Brother Ba seems to be developing a racing game.

"Racing games?"

When he heard the news, Xu Liang was playing the entertainment melee mode of "The Emperor of the Stars" with his friends.

A friend told him that the new game of Tianba Studio is a racing game, and it can be played online, and asked him if he would like to play it together?

"It depends."

Xu Liang doesn't like to play racing games very much, mainly because this kind of game is a bit too boring in his opinion.

He is a rich second generation.

Xu Liang, who was born with a golden spoon since he was a child, is backed by a super super rich father, and no matter what requirements he has, he will be satisfied.

Playing racing in the game?

Don't make a fuss!

He has a lot of sports cars in his garage, and if he's really interested in racing, he can play on the track through his friends.

You can experience this adrenaline rush in real life, so why play the game? If you can play real cars, no one will be stupid enough to play games, right?

But then again.

Although he is not interested in racing games, his friends are loyal racing gamers. Even if he doesn't like to play, it doesn't hurt to play with his friends.

"Let's talk about it later! This game hasn't come out yet, how do you know if it's fun? ”

"It's definitely fun!"

My friend said firmly: "Since Tianba Studio can develop a game like "Star Emperor", I believe that this racing game will not be bad." ”

"The game hasn't come out, but who says we can't play it? There is a pre-registration qualification event on the official website of Tianba, and you can go to the offline trial after the lottery......"

Book a trial?

When Xu Liang heard this word, he immediately laughed: "There shouldn't be many places, right?" With so many people making appointments, how can you guarantee that you will be selected? ”

"Just spend money on it."

Xu Liang's friend is also a rich second generation, and nothing else is more money. As long as enough money is given, there will definitely be people willing to give up this place.

As for whether the official will be held accountable and crack down on this kind of scalping, there is a high probability that it will not.

Because it's hard to get evidence for this kind of thing.

And it's just an opportunity to try it offline, and it's not worth a lot of money in the end, someone wants to buy a place, and it doesn't hurt to earn a sum of money for the players who are drawn.

"Where?"

"Jiang Ning!"

My friend said excitedly: "Don't you really want to visit the game site of the Jiangning Station of the GAL League, how can you say?" Going to have fun together? ”

"Okay!"

Friends have invited him like this, and it really can't be justified not to accompany him on a trip.

It just so happens that Jiangning is not far from Zhonghai, and it will take a few hours to drive. And at the end of the year, Xu Liang is really idle, and it's good to go out for a walk.

Xu Liang's friend really has great powers, and after giving full play to his money ability, he got two qualifications for pre-trial play, which will be Tuesday, January 14, 2025.

About 200 places were released for this pre-order trial.

But there were only more than 150 people who came to the scene. Many of them are game-related journalists, as well as game bloggers and portal editors.

Xu Liang still thinks too much.

At this point in time, except for the rich second generation who have nothing to do like them, even if others win the lottery, they don't have time to go to Jiangning to participate in the so-called offline trial.

"I didn't choose the right time!"

"Indeed!"

After Xu Liang heard his friend's words, he nodded and said, "This time is too embarrassing, and it's a weekday morning, so the players can't come at all." ”

Tianba Studio has too little experience.

Maybe this is the first time they have held a so-called offline trial event, and they have no experience in organizing it, so it's a bit embarrassing.

If you change the time and promote it well, maybe this offline trial event will be more popular and more attention-grabbing. It's not like now, there are not many players running to cheer at all.

Xu Liang didn't know.

In fact, what he said, Tianba Studio has already considered it, the reason why the offline trial activity was carried out in such a hurry and the time was not well chosen, in fact, was because time waited for no one.

The studio is about to take a holiday, and Brother Ba is also packing his luggage and preparing to buy a ticket to go home.

If you don't do it now, when the first month of the lunar calendar arrives, there will be little time to hold offline trial activities. If you continue to drag it out, is it still necessary to hold an offline trial?

Haste is hasty.

Although the time was very special and there were not many people coming, Tianba Studio still made sufficient preparations and specially chartered a high-end Internet café, with tea, drinks, and souvenirs all available.

Of course!

People who came to the offline trial didn't care about the small gifts carefully prepared by Tianba Studio, and only had the game demo that didn't even have an icon in their eyes.

Xu Liang and his friends came to the computer and sat down, and under the guidance of the Tianba staff, they logged on to the test-specific account.

These accounts are special.

The special thing is that the passwords of these accounts are only known to the staff, and players can only try the game, and cannot take it away and keep the game records.

Moreover, it is strictly forbidden to take photos and videos on the spot, and all kinds of live broadcasts are not allowed, which is said to prevent the leakage of the game.

"Are you so strict?"

Xu Liang was speechless, is it necessary to have a broken game that is the same as a military secret?

Forget it, it's coming!

Anyway, he came to the trial event, and he must experience this game, otherwise wouldn't he have come for nothing?

"Bald Program Ape 08"

"Single Planner Wang 14"

He and his friends got a special account for the test, and they got up their nicknames early.

For this kind of sand sculpture full of witty nicknames, Xu Liang has nothing to complain about. After all, it's an officially provided account, so you can play it, so what does it call it?

Besides.

One of the biggest advantages of this test-only account is that almost all the currencies in the game are worth 9.99 million.

Play the same as the cracked version, you can buy whatever car you want, it's not too cool!

As soon as he entered the game, Xu Liang saw a very simple garage page, in which there was only one Huazi's smart driving series tram.

This should be a novice vehicle.

Turning his head and glancing at the computer screen on his friend's side, sure enough, it was the same as him, it was also Huazi's smart car.

Huazi gave money, right?

The two of them have no interest in this kind of novice car at all, since it is a racing game, and there is an endless amount of in-game currency, the first thing must be to buy a good car first.

The map is the M key.

Skillfully open the map and teleport to the "Tianba Auto Trading" company.

Tianba Auto Trade is worthy of being the only regular car purchase channel officially designated by the game, and there are really many models in it!

Sorting brands based on the letters A-Z, players can choose their favorite brand to buy a vehicle, or they can choose according to the price point.

You can also choose new energy, SUV, sedan, micro-face, pickup......

"Ahh There are no sports cars? ”

After rummaging on the car selection page for a long time, Xu Liang was surprised that he didn't see his favorite sports car.

Not to mention sports cars.

There is not even a million-level luxury car in this, and the most expensive car is more than 400,000 and no more than 500,000.

I'll it!

As a rich second-generation Xu Liang, when has he ever seen this kind of strange racing game? There are no sports cars and luxury cars, how do you choose these cars?

He doesn't understand!

In reality, he has never driven a car with a starting price of less than one million. A little more high-profile, he doesn't even think that a car with less than a million can't be called a car.

"What car did you buy?"

Xu Liang, who was at a loss, planned to refer to his friend's choice, after all, he really didn't know much about cars, and he didn't know how to choose these scooters and family cars.

"Diko's train!"

My friend chose a new energy king model and said with a smile: "I have driven this car, and I feel okay within 500,000 yuan, what about you?" ”

"I'm just like you."

Anyway, he couldn't tell the pros and cons, Xu Liang decided to follow his friends to choose, and he would buy whatever car he bought.

"This game doesn't work, let's drive these broken cars......"

After Xu Liang finished paying, he still said speechlessly: "How can there be a racing game that doesn't give players a luxury car and sports car?" It's all this kind of grocery cart and family car, and it's a shame that they can figure it out. ”

"It's alright!"

Friends are not as indignant as Xu Liang, but he feels that after getting tired of driving sports cars and luxury cars, he suddenly played a game that can only drive a family scooter, which has a small and fresh beauty.

This mentality has nothing to do with whether he is a rich second generation or not.

It's purely other racing games, luxury cars and sports cars everywhere, and I'm tired of watching it. I eat a lot of big fish and meat, and occasionally take a bite of greasy green vegetables, which is actually not bad.

In fact, in addition to buying a Dizi tram, he also bought a god car Wuling.

He really hadn't seen this thing in other games, and he had long wanted to experience it in the game, what it was like to race in a magic car.

Tianba Auto Trade is very professional.

Shortly after the two finished paying, the new car was delivered to the garage.

Now that you have a car you like, it's time to experience the key gameplay of the racing game and sign up for the race!

Xu Liang also thinks so.

There are many event registration points on the map, and you can register for the competition as long as you go there, and the rewards vary, and some races have different difficulty points of "single/networked".

"Registration failed!"

Looking at the registration failure prompt on the screen, Xu Liang wondered: "I'm not eligible to participate?" What's going on? ”

"Neither do I!"

After my friend said it, he suddenly studied it. Because the game hasn't been done yet, the two don't know exactly what the problem is.

After trying for a long time, they finally found the problem: they didn't get a "driver's license"!

Xu Liang: "......"

What a genius design!

He never dreamed that the first hurdle he faced when playing a broken racing game was to get a driver's license.

The game designer who came up with this thing must have some bad taste, right? Do you have to let everyone re-experience the pain of getting a driver's license in the game?

If you don't have a driver's license, you can't sign up for the competition.

It's not just the game, but without a driver's license, players won't even be able to drive around the road normally.

Then go for the test!

came to Tianba Driving School, clicked on the driver's license test, and soon Xu Liang entered a copy plane.

The first test: [Road Traffic Safety Laws, Regulations and Related Knowledge Test]!

There are a total of 10 questions, and you can pass by answering 6 questions correctly.

The questions are randomly selected from the real subject one question bank, and the difficulty is there, but it is not as exaggerated as the real subject one, after all, there are only ten questions, and you can pass six questions if you answer six questions correctly.

These questions are difficult for Xu Liang.

After passing subject 1 by dividing five by two, I soon entered the mock exam of subject 2.

Reversing into the garage, S-bend, side parking, right-angle turn, half-slope start......

"It's just against the sky!"

Seeing these familiar exam items, Xu Liang Bengbu lived.

The game was so outrageously abstract that he had never seen a racing game add anything to it.

But don't you say it......

Playing reversing in the game is really a different experience, it's so novel! He obviously passed it all, but he still couldn't help but want to take the test a second time.

Who understands the family!

If only the driver's license test in reality could be as simple as in the game! In particular, it is so refreshing to use the roof to overlook the view.

"It's kind of interesting."

A friend quipped: "The difficulty is not high, the bird's-eye view is out, no one will be able to pass this, right?" ”

"Kesan is a little different!"

Hearing this, my friend suddenly became interested: "What do you say?" Is Kesan different from reality? ”

"It's different!"

Xu Liang stared at the "Please wait for the make-up exam" prompt on the screen, shook his head, and said.

Which is this Kesan?

The third section in the game is a complete simulation of a real game. Only those who get the first place will be considered to pass, otherwise they will have to take a make-up exam.

The overall difficulty is very low.

The main thing is that he didn't react, why are there traffic lights in the race, and Gasai's bicycle and old man's music? Do you even need to give way to pedestrians?

Yes?!

The first time he didn't pay attention to the traffic light, he accidentally ran the red light and was penalized for 10 seconds, and then failed.

This special mechanic can't be fixed for him.

It's the first time he's seen a mechanic that needs to wait for a traffic light in a racing game, and in general, isn't it just a brainless way to drive forward?

And......

Gase dogs are damned!

Playing a racing game can also be plugged, which is really a long insight. And the gasai of this game is really thrilling to play.

These machines have a huge difference in quality!

Xu Liang couldn't help but want to scold, who designed these machines? Why is the quality so poor, and if you give a little hole, you will drill into it?

Forget about the stopper.

Have you ever seen a man-machine honk the horn after the car is put on hold, or even stick his head out of the window and spray at you?

The quality is so touching!

He has played so many games, and the man-machine of "Extreme Hurricane" is the worst group of people he has ever seen, and it perfectly interprets what it means to be a road bully.

"Hahaha!"

Xu Liang was about to be broken by the man's machine, but after his friend went to experience subject three, he smiled.

"Interesting, really interesting."

"These machines are so interesting, not to mention the man-machine, I thought they were players!"

They're too smart to drive.

The man and machine even knew that they were ready to start when there were only a few seconds left in the countdown of the red light, and they were stupid to play a game against time.
