Build a gaming empire from scratch

Chapter 791 Progress and Tips

The live broadcast on the deserted island continued, but Lin You had already diverted his attention.

After washing up again, he called Zhou Jingzheng to follow up the production progress of the external storage hardware.

Previously, in order to break through the upper limit of the capacity of the virtual world, Lin You used a three-pronged approach, investing in upstream hardware, further developing the potential of cloud technology, and developing host expansion accessories at the same time.

Of these three paths, upstream hardware has made the least progress.

The research and development of hardware needs to abide by the laws of scientific research, and there are almost no shortcuts. It is basically wishful thinking to make breakthroughs in a short period of time—things like consciousness chips are considered "archaeological" and cannot be generalized.

In terms of cloud technology, as Yunmeng has more and more servers all over the world, Xiaomeng's power is getting stronger and stronger, and some progress has been made.

But at present, it can only improve the player's gaming experience, and there is still a long way to go to completely break the upper limit of the virtual world capacity.

Only the research on external hardware can achieve the fastest results.

This is not difficult to understand. How difficult is it to make a mobile hard drive customized by Yunmeng?
The only problem is that after the demand for gamification of the [Bafang] head ring, there is also a need to expand storage space.

So the R&D team had another task—Yunmeng finally formed a preliminary hardware R&D team, and the R&D of Mirage 3.0 and 4.0 didn't have to rely entirely on Lin You himself.

With their efforts, the [Taoyuan] series of external storage devices were officially put into production.

——Whether it is used in [Mirage] or [Bafang], they are all called [Taoyuan].

But the first one to be produced was the one needed by [Bafang].

After all, [Bafang] did not consider too much storage requirements when making it, and it was somewhat difficult to deal with "Pokemon".

The spirit beasts in "Pokemon", don't look at all of them in a cartoon style, the details are not as many as the realistic style, but each of them is also a big space eater.

Don't forget that every spirit beast has different habits and action logic. In order to achieve this effect, it must take up a lot of storage space.

Therefore, the commissioning of [Taoyuan] is very necessary.

On the contrary, it is [Mirage]. Except for the players who play crazy mods, there may be a little pressure, and ordinary people are completely fine.

After confirming that [Taoyuan] will be released online next Monday, Lin You let go of another matter and turned to work on the "Chang'an" project team.

Today we have to accept a crucial content: the positive feedback node of the main task.

Although he has already decided on "Chang'an" Chapter 1, it is to let players appreciate the style of the Tang Dynasty, just play it happily.

But the appeal of the main storyline should not be too weak. It can’t be like a game of finding a daughter. Players have played for hundreds of hours, wandered around the world, visited brothels over and over again, and played Gwent over and over again. I completely forgot about finding my daughter alone...

The easiest and most effective way to ensure the attractiveness of the main plot is to set positive feedback nodes.

For each plot, prepare enough rewards—maybe weapons, maybe props, maybe impressive enemies, or even a unique scenery, so that players can always gain and move forward, unconsciously Push the plot to the end.

After this step of acceptance is completed, the production of "Chang'an" Chapter 1 has really come to an end.

……

……

In the afternoon, Lin You came to the Daxia Astronaut Research and Training Center on time, and the young intern Zhu Cixia was also brought by Lin You.

A somewhat outrageous fact is: Zhu Cixia, a princess, would not even be able to enter this place if Lin You hadn't brought her with her.

——Right now, almost everything related to spaceflight in Daxia is kept secret, and unrelated people are not allowed to get close at all.

Although the princess's status is not low, she has nothing to do with the aerospace system, so naturally she can't get in.

Today, she was able to come in to satisfy her curiosity because of her status as Lin You's "assistant". She was already used to this status when she touched the exhibits in the museum last time.

A young-looking researcher stood at the door, waving at Lin You vigorously from a long distance away, his excitement palpable in his words.

When Lin You and the princess came close, they rushed forward a few steps and shook hands with Lin You enthusiastically.

"Hello, hello! I'm Deng Chunyi, a senior researcher at the Astronaut Training Center, nice to meet you!"

Zhu Cixia, who is always the focus of the crowd's attention wherever he goes, was ignored by him. He nodded his head in a very perfunctory way, even as a greeting, which made Lin You very suspicious. Has this buddy noticed that this is the princess herself... …

"Come here, please!" Deng Chunyi kept talking while leading the way.

"Mr. Lin, I learned yesterday that you are coming, and I have been looking forward to it since morning!"

"You must have never imagined that dozens of researchers fought an indiscriminate hand-to-hand battle yesterday, fighting to the death, just to compete for this reception spot."

Lin You was stunned for a moment before realizing that this should be a battle that took place in the virtual world.

"So in the end... you won?"

"Of course!" Deng Chunyi took it for granted, "A group of amateurs who can only play the piano, run and play table tennis dare to fight with me? I am the sixth generation descendant of the serious Kaidaomen!"

"Huh?" Lin You couldn't keep up with this buddy's train of thought.

What's even more outrageous is that Xiaomeng also reminded him: The person in front of him is still a genuine [Honorary Player].

Astronautics researcher, inheritor of traditional sword techniques, and honorary player, these three identities are superimposed together, Lin You thinks it is outrageous.

Deng Chunyi took it for granted, and seized the rare opportunity to ask non-stop:

"Boss Lin, when is the public beta of "Pokemon"? Give me a message?"

"Come on, come on."

Just five days later.

"When will "Chang'an" be released?" Deng Chunyi continued to ask, "It's a martial arts game, and now it's almost being played as a monopoly. I can't find anyone who wants to fight, and I'm just trying to make money , I went online yesterday and found out that there are even people who set up street stalls!"

Lin You also knew about this, the idea of ​​robbing the armory proposed by Dong Guagua failed in the end.All players involved in the robbery were thrown into prison.

Almost all of these people, as well as those who failed to rob the prison and were imprisoned, stayed in the prison for a full 10 hours.

Since then, the law and order in Chang'an City has suddenly improved.

Everyone started to look for serious things to do, and among them, the most people were looking for ways to make money—this is easy to understand, everything in Chang'an City needs money, and it is really difficult to move without money.

"Soon, soon." Lin You comforted Deng Chunyi again.

"..." Deng Chunyi was a little speechless.

Why is it all "soon, soon"?
He didn't believe in evil, and continued to ask: "Then you want to go to space now, is it to draw materials for space-themed games? We are also looking forward to space games!"

"That's right, but you have to wait patiently." Lin You said, "The first sci-fi theme game will not go to space yet."

Deng Chunyi was a little disappointed that he would not go to space for the time being.

But at least it is confirmed that "the future will go to space", and he still has hope. He can't help but continue to ask: "The first sci-fi game, can you reveal what the subject is? I swear by my personality, I promise not to reveal it." information!"

"Hmm..." Lin You hesitated a little, but after thinking about it, he still gave a hint:
"If a giant monster capable of destroying a city appeared in the sea, and their flesh and blood would cause terrible and irreversible pollution to the land, making the land no longer arable and inhabitable, how do you think humans should respond? "

　I am guilty and I repent.
