Chapter 211: Explosive
"Bunker!"
"What the hell is this?!"
“It exploded!”
"I want Star World! When will it be released? What the hell is the point of testing it!"
“I can only say that it is worthy of being a world-class company.”
"The current mode feels a bit like an online version of GT5. Obviously there is more to come, and the NPCs are much more interactive..."
After the 'Gun King' came back from his death, he immediately rushed out again without stopping, but he soon discovered the problem.
"Where are the new clothes I bought?"
"Didn't it say when I bought it that it would be lost upon death? This is somewhat similar to EVE. It seems that except for one's own skills, stored items, and electronic wallet, everything else that you take out will be lost upon death. It's quite serious."
This death penalty did make the Gun King a little nervous, but he still bought a new set while saying
"As for the clothes, it doesn't matter. They're not expensive anyway. But my flight is leaving soon and I don't want to wait for hours."
Even this time he didn't take a taxi, but took the maglev train that just arrived at the station.
It was another feeling and another city scenery. As the maglev train moved forward, everyone saw a huge building connecting the sky and the earth in front of them. At the same time, the new electronic map prompt also sent a confirmation.
Space elevator!
The huge building allows the maglev train to enter directly. After sitting in your seat and fastening your seat belt, you will begin the rapid ascent to the sky. From the window next to you, you can also watch the scenery outside that is constantly moving away.
The city kept getting smaller, and slowly the outline of the city came into view.
"Bunker! Seamless switching?"
“I’m so numb! When I first saw the new map prompt, I thought it was a cutscene after entering the space elevator. But it went straight to the sky?”
“No wonder it’s so big!”
But after all, it is a game. Although the map is large, it is impossible for one person to waste a lot of time going into space. After a few minutes, they arrived at the planetary space city.
In the space city, there are various projected arrows, cleaning robots going back and forth, tourists coming and going, the beautiful scenery in front of the space windows, and the planets overlooking. These visual impacts one after another continue to amaze everyone.
This really is a game!
Truly movie-quality images!
On the way, they did understand why it was recommended to complete the novice process. Now even if they followed the process, it would be like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden. If there was no process, they might not even know to look at the road signs and would get lost!
"Oh my god..."
Following the prompt, after entering the spaceship in advance, the Gun King heard a shout from the side.
"Player?"
When I looked back, I saw a figure in a T-shirt with two words popping up above his head.
Unlike traditional games that allow for connected microphones, not only is simultaneous translation performed here, but the other party's voice feels as if it is coming from a specific location in the game, as if there is really someone there greeting you, without any sense of incongruity!
"Yes, I..."
But before he could finish his words, a guard came over.
"Don't block the door and make noise, go in by yourself."
NPC!
This is the NPC’s AI!
Although it doesn't look like a very powerful function, it can make independent judgments and perform its duties, instantly detonating the live broadcast rooms of two players!
However, they did not want to experience the consequences of disobeying the order, so they entered quickly.
"I'm telling you, the AI in this game is awesome. You can have a conversation with them directly, and they will give you certain reactions and replies. And did you see my movements? When we talk, we also have corresponding body movements according to the tone of voice."
The player on the opposite side was talking nonstop, and it was obvious that his ability to study the game was much stronger than that of the 'Gun King', and he had already figured out a lot.
Sure enough, as he spoke, the other person's character also began to make some simple body movements in response.
"And if you don't want to use your real voice in the game, you can use a fake voice, but unfortunately you can't be transgender, your gender is based on your ID card."
"Oh my goodness, if we open up the global server, won't we be accused of discrimination?"
"Haha, that's possible, but this game really feels like it has the ability to be open to the world, that's awesome!"
At this moment, a ship guard wearing power armor came over and stood in front of the two of them.
"I heard that you are veterans who have failed in uploading their consciousness? How about it, do you want to come with me to recover some memories?"
It was a very simple conversation, and it looked like an NPC on a mission, but this made the netizens watching it smell something different.
"Did he just talk about you?"
“It’s really full of details!”
"NPC actually connected normally directly, instead of in a dialog box mode!"
And this kind of questioning is basically choosing with your feet, so of course both of them went over!
Then they started the combat mode and learned basic combat skills. The hobbies of the two people should focus on this.
Some people also recounted some situations in other live broadcast rooms in the barrage.
The NPC you meet after boarding the ship is uncertain, and it seems to be based on the options you choose at the beginning of the question!
Life skills, combat skills, production, mining, and even driving!
Some people have already gone to find other people to start learning after being guided. That’s also fine. As long as the attributes meet the requirements, the skill learning can be completed.
There's even room for internships on the passenger ship itself!
Visit the cockpit, the defense turret exercises of the passenger ship, the shooting exercises when passing through the meteorite area, the trying on of power armor, the mining armor looking for some minerals that need to be repaired in the meteorite area for some spacecraft, the production line inside the spacecraft, etc.
The diversity of the content is simply jaw-dropping!
The key is that such a hardcore game also has casual play modes. You can enjoy the scenery, play it as GT5, and practice life skills without any impact at all.
Those who want to work in logistics can do logistics, those who want to go to the front line can go to the front line, everything is available!
"My goodness, the spaceship in this game can't be controlled by one person!"
"No, someone's option may be the captain's specialty. The captain even let him become an assistant to practice and give relevant explanations. The captain's specialty can activate various auxiliary programs to complete single-person driving and even combat. He will enter the captain module, but when driving alone, he can only play the most basic capabilities of the battleship. It would be best if it could carry gunners, radars, and driving, and also be able to hang fighters and fighter pilots!"
In other words, if you want multiple people to control the battleship, then use multiple people to control it. The battleship will be stronger and have more functions. If you don’t want multiple people to control it, then you can control it alone!
However, considering the hardcore nature of the game and the price of the battleships, I'm afraid most people will choose multiplayer control to be more cost-effective.
The key is that you can choose to hang up in multiplayer control, which means that the character is still on the boat when you go offline.
Although the shooting accuracy is not as good as manual control, it can benefit from the skill BUFF bonus.
"You can also hire NPCs, which has a similar effect!"
There are only so few people now, but there are already so many tricks. What will it be like when there are more people?
Afterwards, the game-related videos about "Star World" instantly set off the entire network, and it was flooded with topics brought up by netizens, edited videos of the anchors, and commentaries everywhere.
There were roars from all kinds of gaming enthusiasts.
We want Star World!
Open registration now!
The popularity also spread overseas.
"PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" was already very popular, and now the sudden emergence of "Star World" has instantly suppressed it.
Although it is not a competitive game, this immersive experience is really addictive.
Subsequently, the world authorities also issued an announcement.
"After seven days of closed beta testing, we will sort out the opinions and if there are no major bugs or adjustments, we will open an open beta test without deleting files. At that time, all three terminals will be synchronized."
? ? What is three-terminal synchronization?
Later I found out that the game was released simultaneously on mobile phones, PCs and consoles, and was tested in a unified global test bed!
Explosion!
"You think you can play this kind of picture on your phone? Impossible!"
“You can play it on your mobile phone? Good news for office workers!”
“Unbelievable!”
"The official said that some functions will be reduced on the mobile phone. Some delicate operations cannot be completed on the mobile phone. Many operations require AI assistance, mainly to facilitate operations such as practicing skill proficiency, buying and selling supplies, and traveling."
"That's all you need to do! This game has an offline entrustment function. All you need to do is store your valuables."
"It's terrible. As players, we can entrust NPCs to continue the interaction after we log off."
"The game has a charging model. The game itself is free, but to open all functions, you need to buy a monthly card. At the same time, the in-app purchases are mostly clothing. The monthly card can be sold directly in the market for game coins, and the price fluctuates. In addition, there is a money laundering warning. If any criminals want to use this to launder money, it will be confiscated directly."
"World companies are not allowed to use cheats, I believe they have the ability to do so."
"After all, he is the originator of artificial intelligence. Although he is not as powerful as the Red Queen , he is definitely not weak either."
“I’m just waiting for the game now!”
“Am I the only one buying hard drives?”
“…”
After looking at the game size on the PC and then at the still large storage space on the mobile phone after being streamlined, many game players fell silent, and then quickly began various operations.
However, given the limited storage space and price of smartphones, if your phone does not have enough storage space, you can choose the "text reduction" mode.
This mode has almost no active control, but it can issue instructions to change commissions, which is good news for players who are idle and slacking off!
Players who want to grind can kill you with the game, and there is endless fun to explore every day.
Players who don’t want to spend too much time on the game can simply use the text-based simplified version on their mobile phones to adjust various commissions and treat it as a development game!
Moreover, many studios can sense the business opportunities here. Under this game mode, the price of game coins is absolutely staggeringly high.
But unfortunately, the ID card is bound. The studio can invest, but one person can only control one account, and the impact can be limited.
World Company has made it clear that we do not stop studios or professional players, but we do stop scripts, stop accounts being idle, and stop multiple accounts!
There is even an announcement prohibiting the buying and selling of ID card information for game registration, as self-judgment will be made based on the login IP address anyway.
And the police will be called!
It is illegal to buy and sell ID information.
"Everyone should be aware of our company's anti-cheating technology and artificial intelligence level. I would like to advise those smart guys not to waste their time. Professional players are welcome, and single accounts can make money, but don't try to be cunning, or everything will be confiscated..."
