This Game Is Too Realistic

"Brothers, even if I am dead and nailed in the coffin, I will still shout with an unwavering voice that this game is simply awesome!!!"

"I won't say much, but if this game doesn't become popular, I will sh*t while standing on my hands!"

Early in the morning, the group owner "White_horse_passing_a_crevice" appeared in the Bull and Horse Club. This unpredictable speech caused many lurkers to come online.

Quit_smoking: "Dman. The group owner is still alive?"

This_lord_is_arrogant_what_can_you_do: "Are you joking?"

Hold_the_sword_execution: "I haven't seen you and administrators all night, I thought you were arrested for doing bad things. (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) "

No_one_understands_love: "What game?"

"Confused.JPG"

After a while, the administrator "There_will_be_ample_time" also appeared.

"It's the virtual reality game that Brother Light sent to the group a few days ago."

Quit_smoking: "Damn, you guys have already played it?! Really?! Are you not lying to me?!"

There_will_be_ample_time: "Why do I want to lie to you."

Unfortunately, the device did not support in-game screenshots.

Otherwise, he would've directly uploaded the screenshots.

Quit_smoking: "Then hurry up and tell us, what exactly is a fully immersive virtual reality game like? Which VR device can play it?"

White_horse_passing_a_crevice: "VR? Haha, that kind of head-mounted screen is not comparable with Wasteland Online's game helmet. ☺"

Quit_smoking: "What do you mean? Are you saying that Wasteland Online can be played without VR glasses?"

There_will_be_ample_time: "You ignorant fool. They use game helmets. Emmmm... How do I explain it, have you seen Sword Art Online? It's close to that kind of thing."

Quit_smoking: "Fuck me?!"

No_one_understands_love: "Head-mounted microwave oven?! Seriously!"

This_lord_is_arrogant_what_can_you_do: "Who are you trying to fool? Sword Art Online... I have never heard of such an awesome technology!"

Hold_the_sword_execution: "Yes!"

Most people didn't believe it.

This sounded ridiculous!

Logically speaking, when an unprecedented technology comes out, there must be a process from new to robust. This process could be very short, but it was a must.

Ample Time understood their feelings deep down.

After all, he had also experienced their current stage before, feeling that the so-called immersive virtual reality game was just a joke made by a troll.

However--

This was indeed true.

There_will_be_ample_time: "The device does not support taking pictures. I really can't prove it. I can only say that it is up to you whether you believe it or not. But after experiencing it for so long, I have summarized some information about this game."

Quit_smoking: "Good brother! Hurry up and tell me about it!"

There_will_be_ample_time: "Group owner, please mute the whole group, as my typing speed is very slow."

White_horse_passing_a_crevice: "Okay!"

As one of the top 200 players in PUBG Asian server, and one of the best League of Legends players, [There_will_be_ample_time]'s talent for games could be seen by everyone in the group.

In terms of game reviews, he also had the most say.

This man, as if he didn't have to go to work, played games every day.

He could be seen not only in multiplayer online games, but also in the list of speedrun communities.

There were many phenomenal masterpieces among them, and even many old brothers in the group had used his hand-made strategies.

It could be said that he was a full time game player.

Therefore, regardless of whether or not people believed in the setting of "the fully immersive virtual online game", and whether it was a player who had obtained the qualification for the closed beta or not, almost everyone was curiously waiting for his message.

"Let's talk about the background of the game first."

"The background is actually nothing special, the orthodox post-apocalyptic setting + wasteland punk style. The story is set in a fictional world that was destroyed by a nuclear war two hundred years ago, and the players are residents of a shelter who are going back to the surface."

"At present, we - that is, the closed beta players, are going to the surface to build outposts as the vanguard. We haven't officially entered the main storyline. More clues may have to wait for the closed beta or even the open beta to be unlocked. So I won't skip this."

"Then the realism of the game!"

"It is not an exaggeration to say that this game completely annihilates any games I have seen in terms of realism, and it is foreseeable that even if it is another fifty years, it is still impossible to surpass this game in terms of realism! As for why I say this, because this game is simply the wasteland DLC of our world!"

"Whether it is the light and shadow effect, the interaction of the five senses, or even the texture of the touch object... Everything will make you believe that this is the real world. This immersive experience has undoubtedly reached one hundred percent. Yes, that's ONE HUNDRED PERCENT! At least, I didn't find any obvious bugs or flaws."

"And then there are the degrees of freedom."

"As a sandbox game, you can interact with almost everything you touch in the game. This interaction is not just limited to pure object collision, but also the flexibility to change their position by subjective will, even morph their shape or state within the limits of physical rules."

"I know what you are thinking of. Minecraft or The Forest, right? But it is completely different. It is a sandbox in the true sense, not a building block of pixels and textures! For this alone, it is definitely worth it for sandbox enthusiasts to buy this game!"

"Then the most critical content!"

"First of all, no matter whether the player or the monster, there is no HP bar and MP bar setting, and there is no visual attribute panel, at least not in the beta stage."

"However, in actual games, the initial attributes of different players are different. For example, some players have stronger power, while some have higher perception, agility, or other hidden attributes that have not yet been discovered. I guess after the closed beta version, there should be a class system and a weapon system, allowing players to develop their own gameplay based on their attributes and talents."

"Next comes NPC. At the current stage of closed beta testing, there are only two NPCs in the game, one of which is the administrator code-named 'Dawn'. The other is his assistant, named Little Seven, which is a robot!"

"What is certain at present is that both NPCs have a high degree of intelligence and can communicate and interact with the players normally. I'm guessing there should be a hidden favorability setting, but this is just my personal theory, and one I haven't confirmed yet."

"In addition, what makes me more concerned about the pain settings is the pain. Although it is a 100% realistic game, it is not good to make it too real in some places, especially because I am more afraid of pain. But the design of this game is very human. Although the sensation of pain exists along with touch, there is a protection threshold."

"For example, I tried to cut my arm with a stone, but it didn't produce pain. On the contrary, it hurt a bit when I pinched myself. I think the game should have some kind of protection mechanism, so that the 'excessive' pain cannot be captured by the brain's nerves… Of course, it may also be the body's own self-protection mechanism. It's like we can feel pain in a dream, but it will not exceed the tolerance limit."

"In fact, I think the game devs should give more freedom to players, such as allowing players to adjust the level of pain themselves. Personally, I am very satisfied with the current five senses immersion and pain shielding, but there are definitely players who would like to adjust the level of pain freely.☺"

"As for the game's respawning mechanism, I haven't tried it yet, but I heard that every death will cause players to lose certain contribution points, and the respawning CD will last up to 3 days! Contribution points are actually easy to get. You can earn it by doing the task, but the penalty time is too long. Anyway, I don't want to try it at the moment. If you are interested, you can try it yourself. Maybe you can unlock a different gameplay."

"Finally, I want to roast the devs. Why are the characters all men? Who wants to see the body of big men!!! Strongly request that the game officially allow players to set their own gender!"

As "There_will_be_ample_time" eloquently wrote one or two thousand words, more and more people in the group began to come online.

This included the man behind the scenes - Light.

Just now, Chu Guang was looking at the medical examination report scanned by the culture chamber. He didn't pay attention to the news in the group. As a result, when he logged into the computer in the residents' hall he was surprised to see that the guy had actually written so many words.

But then again, this old brother named "There_will_be_ample_time" had a good summary. Basically, he had said everything he wanted to say, even taking into account what he didn't think about.

The group was then unmuted.

Messages instantly flooded the chat window.

"Awsome!"

"If this game is really this great, then I will buy ten copies!"

"I do not believe."

"Don't believe it +1! Unless you give me a qualification for a closed beta!"

Although there were still many group members who didn't believe that there was such a great game, at least a dozen people had changed their minds.

As for why Chu Guang knew, because he could see the numbers on the backend of the official website.

At the moment when "There_will_be_ample_time" was sending messages, the number of applications had jumped from 11 to 25.

Light: "I was working just now and I didn't pay attention to the group. What older brother There_will_be_ample_time said is basically correct. I will now add a few words."

Quit_smoking: "Damn! Brother Light!!!"

(The group has been muted.)

(Light was appointed as the administrator of the group.)

Huh?

Become an administrator?

Chu Guang was slightly surprised, but didn't keep it in mind, and continued typing.

"First of all, it's about player characters and attributes. Indeed, as brother There_will_be_ample_time said, the game does have character attributes and level settings, and each player's initial talent is different. This can be viewed at the respawning point - the culture chamber where the player wakes up in or the official website.."

"The death penalty is not just 3 days of reaspawning CDs and deduction of contribution points, but also part of the progress before saving will also be lost. The saving method is to lie in the culture chamber to receive scans and somatic cell sampling, which takes about 1 to 2 hours. This process will happen automatically after the player goes offline."

"We expect to install a faster attribute query mechanism before the second closed beta stage, so that players can check the status of the character in real time and enrich the gaming experience."

"As for customizing the appearance and gender of the character... I'm sorry, but this can't be done."

"Just like how reincarnation can't be determined, the body in-game is determined by pre-loaded DNA. If you are not satisfied with the appearance of the character, you can consider cosmetic surgery or even prosthetic transformation. This feature will be added in the later game. "

"In addition, starting from the Alpha test, players can set their own preferences for the five attributes of strength, agility, physique, perception, and intelligence on the application page through questionnaire surveys."

"If you choose strength, you have a higher probability of obtaining the strength system talent, the initial character having a higher physical strength. If you have no preference, you can also choose a balanced type."

"As for gender, the gender of the character and the player's gender are the same, and players cannot set it freely. This is mainly due to safety considerations. Differences in physiological structures can lead to coordination problems. At the same time, the resulting risk of gender cognition disorder and public opinion is also something we don't want to deal with."

In fact, this was not set by Chu Guang.

It was the original setting of the system.

There seemed to be a very complicated technical problem. Chu Guang didn't understand the principle, only knew that this was the case.

There_will_be_ample_time: "No! Please don't. I am already an adult, I can sign a risk awareness contract!!! Q.Q"

(The group administrator "There_will_be_ample_time" has been muted by the group owner for 10 minutes.)

White_horse_passing_a_crevice: "Don't interrupt!"

Level_8_Gale: "Yes, yes."

Girls_public_enemy_ten_times_a_night: "Please shut up first."

Chu Guang was amused in his heart, but didn't stop, and continued to type.

"The above are the results I got from the discussion during a meeting just now. In addition, in the next phase of testing, we will add a 'Favorability' system."

Girls_public_enemy_ten_times_a_night: "Favorability?! What do you mean? Can we have sex with NPCs?!"

(The group administrator "Girls_public_enemy_ten_times_a_night" has been muted by the group owner for 10 minutes.)

My goodness.

This Old White was really selfless, muting without saying anything.

It saved him a lot of time.

Chu Guang continued to type the following words seriously.

"Don't think about sex all the day. Favorability means the NPC's evaluation of the player."

"The main premise is that the player's behavior will affect the NPC's view of the player. Especially for some key NPCs, when their favorability is high enough, not only can you get extra rewards, but it may even trigger hidden tasks and unlock hidden class routes!"

Hidden task!

Hidden class!

Seeing these simple words, the eyes of the four closed beta players in front of the screen widened in shock.

There was even a fire emerging in their hearts.

Damn, this was to encourage them to be bootlickers!

But--

They liked it!

So what if they were bootlickers?

As long as they were not bootlickers in reality!

Not to mention that they were just licking the boots of NPCs and artificial intelligence. Moreover, they would get a reward after licking it.

Not too shabby!

Chu Guang thought for a while, but there was nothing else to add.

Shelter was too poor at the moment. Apart from a bunch of free labor, he had nothing else. So he could only give players empty promises.

"Do you have any questions you'd like to ask? Or some suggestions?" Chu Guang wanted to know if the players themselves had any better ideas.

He was a very open-minded person.

If conditions permitted it, he would consider adopting it. If conditions did not permit it, he could still give them empty promises and tell them that he would implement it in the future.

Level_8_Gale: "Yes! What exactly is that contribution point? Is it currency? Or is it similar to experience?"

Sure enough, they asked about this.

Chu Guang thought for a while and typed in reply.

"The game's economic system is still being designed. Our goal is to create a completely real economic system from production to circulation, so that both professional players and combat players can fully experience the fun of the game."

"As for contribution points, you can take it as a special currency in the testing phase, which is mainly used to test the current mission system."

"In addition to buying respawn coins, our planning team is also considering introducing some special rewards that can only be redeemed by contribution points, as a gift to closed beta players."

Anyway, it was just an empty promise.

As for the reward itself, Chu Guang hasn't decided yet, as it depended on what good things he would get from the system.

However, in the eyes of players, this sentence had a completely different meaning.

Could only be redeemed with contribution points? !

That was to say--Closed beta limited rewards!

The four players who had obtained the qualification for the closed beta were smiling from ear to ear.

Those players who had already made an appointment on the official website but had not yet obtained the qualification for the beta test became eager to try it.

As for the people who did not believe in "completely immersive virtual reality games" from the beginning, they naturally would not change their minds just because of his words.

But,

It did not matter.

As long as some people believed it.

"It's getting late. I had a night shift, so I have to go to sleep. By the way, that 'Ample Time', your guide is well written, why not post it on the official website? Now that the official website has opened the forum, you can register an account and post on it. Mods of the forum will pin the post when they see it."

This mod was naturally Chu Guang himself.

At present, he was the only employee in the entire company. He was both an NPC and a game dev, and now he was also a part-time mod of the official website forum.

"OK! I'm going now!" Ample Time, who had already been unmuted, left with this sentence, and went to copy his chat history.

The group owner unmuted the group.

The messages in the group chat burst like a mountain torrent flooding a bank.

Chu Guang saw that many people sent him a friend request, some of whom wanted to buy the close beta qualification, some wanted to ask him about game information, and some even asked him how to make games.

He couldn't answer all of them, so he simply went offline without answering a single one.

Looking at the four physical examination reports on the computer, Chu Guang suddenly thought and asked.

"Little Seven."

"What's wrong, master?"

"You said... Since players can use the culture chamber, can I also move through the clones in the culture chamber?"

"Emmm... I don't know."

"What do you mean I don't know???"

"Because I am just your assistant, you basically know all the information I know. There is no record of you using the culture chamber, maybe... the last administrator didn't design the culture chamber to be used by you?"

Chu Guang originally wanted to ask why, but suddenly fell silent again.

In fact, the reason for this was not hard to guess.

Assuming that this shelter could withstand a strategic nuclear strike, then there would be no other means to forcibly invade this shelter on this wasteland.

Even if he encountered an accident, for it, it was nothing more than staying dormant for a while, and waiting for the arrival of the next administrator.

Seeing Chu Guang fall silent, Little Seven asked in concern.

"Master?"

"Nothing."

After returning to his senses, Chu Guang continued to look at the medical examination report on the computer screen.

Perhaps it was for the convenience of players to understand, or maybe it was the mischief of the first administrator, but more than 120 complex physical function data were re-aggregated and summarized into five concise numbers.

That was, strength, agility, physique, perception, and intelligence.

Strength represented the strength of body tissues such as muscles and bones, and represented the player's basic weight, melee damage, and weapon throw distance.

Agility corresponded to the reflex nerve, which correlated the player's reaction speed, movement coordination ability and many other physical data. The quick summary was that players with higher agility were more agile in battle and easier to actively dodge attacks.

The physique corresponded to the player's vitality and resilience, which was mainly reflected in the recovery of loss of health, and the resistance to some abnormal states and immunity, etc.

Intelligence was not the same as IQ or logical thinking ability. It mainly affected the character's learning ability and the speed of mental recovery, and at the same time affected the player's compatibility with neural access devices. Specifically, a character with high intelligence could operate more neural access devices at the same time.

Perception meant intuition and insight. Characters with higher perception were more sensitive to crisis intuition and were more likely to find hidden clues and traps.

It was also the most mysterious one!

The benchmark value of all attributes was 5, which floated within a range of ±2 depending on the genetic sequence and physical condition.

Although he did not have his own culture chamber, Chu Guang found spare medical equipment on the B1 floor of the shelter.

As he guessed.

He also held a special genetic sequence that could be detected and scanned by the medical examination equipment.

It was just a pity that there was no relevant information about this genetic sequence in the database, as it seemed to exist outside of the plan.

To explain in terms of games, this was a path that "game publishers" had never envisaged.

And this also meant that no one knew what would happen and where it would lead if he continued to go down this road.

Realizing this, Chu Guang felt a little uneasy in his heart.

But what he felt more was excitement.

Maybe he had the word adventure inscribed in his bones.

He wanted to go his own way more than to go step by step along the path others imagined.

Based on the results of the physical examination and the attribute conversion formula left by the first administrator, Chu Guang made his own attribute panel, and based on this as a blueprint, he also made a copy for four closed beta players.

[ID: Chu Guang

Genetic Sequence: Administrator

Level: LV.5

——Basic attributes——

Strength: 8

Agility: 6

Physique: 6

Perception: 7

Intelligence: 6]

"The five sets of data are basically one level stronger than the players."

Level 5 means that the development progress of genetic sequence is 5%? It seems that the effort he spent in the past five months did not go wasted.

The development progress of the other four closed beta players was 0.

But it was not exactly 0.

For example, "White_horse_passing_a_crevice".

His genetic sequence was the "strength type". Through frequent use of brute force, that was, cutting trees, his development progress had increased by 0.3% in one day, while the other three closed beta players had only increased by about 0.1%.

If he continues to cut trees in the next two days, Old White may become the first player to break through level 0 and advance to LV1.

Thinking of this, Chu Guang made up his mind in his heart.

‘Sure enough, I have to ask them to do more work.'

‘This is also for their own good!'
