Chapter 472: Arena mode

Depending on the consumer goods and tax rates of each country, the pricing of virtual reality experiences varies. [Fengyun.com] For example, the price of Internet cafes in China is 6 yuan an hour, while in the United States it is almost 2 US dollars, and in Europe it is basically 2 euros. Half of the fees collected belong to the Internet cafe, and the other half belongs to Futureman Technology. After 2 months, Internet cafes can also purchase the helmet at a price of US$2,000 without any revenue sharing with Futureman Technology.

All player accounts are linked to iris information and can be bound to Futureman 1.0 accounts.

In order to enable everyone to play the game, Futureman Technology also has clear limits on everyone’s experience time. That is, each person can only play for a maximum of 2 hours in a single game, and can only log in once within 72 hours. This time limit will be gradually relaxed based on the idle rate of helmet use.

But that last one is obviously redundant.

Just 24 hours after 21 large-scale Internet cafes in Wanghai City took the lead in launching virtual reality experience services, the Internet has exploded. Many post bars, bbs, and scarves were flooded with the keyword "Phantom", and players who were lucky enough to experience it first expressed their shock in words.

"It's an immersive virtual helmet! The previous rumors turned out to be true! In my lifetime!"

"It's incredible. I can't imagine it. My body didn't move at all... It's hard to describe the feeling. It's like traveling to another world!"

"Don't call it Future People Group. It's more appropriate to call it Black Technology Group. If you support the name change, give it a thumbs up!"

"Direct mail from abroad, only played with it for two days, sold at half price, if you want to buy it, hurry up, the contact information is here... "

“…”

Words alone are no longer enough to describe the excitement of the players.

However, not only players, but also the scientific community are shocked by the achievements of future people's technology.

Even the Nobel Committee sent an email to Futurian Technology, asking the person who conquered the technical problem of exchanging neural signals and electrical signals in the "Phantom" helmet development project, hoping to nominate him for the next Nobel Prize. Candidates.

But when Xia Shiyu asked Jiang Chen the name of this person. Jiang Chen rejected the Nobel Prize delivered to his door with a heavy heart. Even if he said he developed it himself, no one would believe it. His life style and personal experience are completely incomparable to those of rigorous scientific workers.

This technology is destined not to be named in the Nobel Prize.

Regardless of how shocked players and the scientific community are.

Many players are eagerly looking forward to virtual reality. Futureman Technology has finally opened the tip of the iceberg of "God Level Continent" - the arena experience project.

Although it is an experience, it is actually an internal test in a broad sense.

All trial players will be placed in the trial server. Although they cannot enjoy the full game content, they can experience the arena mode that internal beta players have not yet played and enjoy a fast-paced game (pk) experience.

In the arena. The player level is limited to level 10, and the profession is optional. After the game starts, players can use system gold coins to purchase equipment from arena merchants, and then participate in arena battles, that is, PK with other players.

You can choose to wear it alone or in a group, and there are 12 types of terrain to choose from.

Everyone is a novice, so there is no question of advantages and disadvantages. However, when you first enter the game, there will be a novice tutorial. To a certain extent, the data in this arena will affect the professional balance on the day the game is officially launched.

on the other hand. The arena also gives players enough of the addiction of throwing fireballs. Presumably when the game is officially launched, players who are prepared will not rush to choose the magician.

But it is quite funny to say that many relatively peaceful players actually chose to negotiate with the opponent not to start a fight after entering the game. Instead, they walked around the map, treating the arena as a tourist attraction.

After some masters had enough fun with fireballs, they used their staffs to pry up the mud on the ground. As for those players who deliberately choose a character of the opposite sex and then check whether they have that thing... According to the laws of the country, harmonious content will naturally be harmonized. If you really want to play h games. After the helmet is released, follow the online tutorials and connect to a new country’s VPN to play.

But strictly speaking, the Phantom helmet does not provide audio images. All scenes unfold directly at the brain level, and mechanically belong to the category of "daydreaming". Therefore, it remains to be discussed whether virtual reality content can be applied to the current management regulations of film, television and game works. After all, it is still a bit excessive to use laws to restrict the content of people's dreams.

Of course, the main theme of the arena is fighting.

But in addition, it also shocked the players. Or the real-time translation function introduced by Futureman Technology in the game.

Players all over the world are in the same experience server, but they can communicate with each other unhindered. The real-time translation subtitle function can help players translate the words of other players into common language in twelve countries.

Containing so many incredible functions, Futureman Technology once again became the focus of heated discussions among the public and the media.

For example, in an American TV talk show, the host and Gates had a discussion about future technology.

"I heard that a virtual reality device called the 'Phantom' helmet was recently released. Gates, have you played it?"

"Of course, on the day it was released, I ran to a nearby Internet cafe to squat, um... and then I finally played it yesterday." As he said that, Gates made a helpless expression, and the audience also burst into laughter with the same feeling.

He is no longer the CEO of Microsoft, but is participating in this show as the founder and shareholder of Microsoft.

The host also smiled and then continued to ask.

"If something like this were officially put on the shelves one day in the future, and you bought it the day after it was released, wouldn't you be afraid that the kind of plot in the film and television works would happen after putting on the helmet? For example, being locked in a virtual world and playing a game Can’t come back?”

"That's a good question. My answer is..." Gates lowered his voice in a pretentious manner, and then laughed loudly, "I'm going to play even if I don't come back."

There was a surprised expression on the host's face.

"As the founder of Microsoft, is it really okay for you to be so... um, so optimistic about your competitors' products?"

"What I'm optimistic about is virtual reality itself. I admit that after experiencing the 'Phantom' helmet, the sense of reality really shocked me. But what I want to say is that the system we launched at Microsoft also has its own uniqueness. For example, the concept we advocate is to allow users to interact with virtual things in reality instead of getting further and further away from reality.”

"In other words, do Microsoft and Futureman Technologies have different priorities?" the host asked with a smile.

"Yes, you can understand it that way." Gates crossed his legs and leaned on the chair.

"Then which one do you think is more in line with the trend of the times?" The host asked a pointed question maliciously.

The audience in the audience watched attentively, but Gates fell into a little embarrassment.

His expression changed for a few seconds. He coughed and gave a vague answer in a positive voice.

"...I can only say that both have their own merits."

Just when Gates was having trouble dealing with the host's difficulties, a certain research institute was also having trouble with the "Phantom" helmet.

At this moment, inside a national research institute.

Director Qian looked at the researcher walking towards him with a sinking face and asked in a deep voice.

"Xiao Wu, how are you? Have you found anything out of your research?"

The researcher named Xiao Wu sighed and shook his head.

"X-ray scans were ineffective and Future Tech cunningly installed a lead barrier in the helmet."

"What about disassembly?" Director Qian asked immediately.

The smile on Xiao Wu's face became even more bitter.

"We had just cut the knife and were about to study the structure inside, but the protection mechanism was immediately triggered, and all the circuits were burned to a pulp. The only thing that is certain is that the material they used is probably the legendary graphite ene chip. Because after the shell was taken apart, those things were burned into carbon dioxide very thoroughly. As for the key neural access device, it was the hardest hit area, and the molybdenum material was completely melted into a ball... "

"Is there no way to recover?" Director Qian couldn't help but ask despite the pain.

Xiao Wu shook his head.

"The damage was too great."

Director Qian felt angry when he thought of the man named Wang in Wanghai City. Although his official position was not as high as that of Wang, it still could not stop the contempt for him in his heart.

"What a fucking waste of money." After scolding, Director Qian shook his head and walked out the door with a sigh.

He now needs to ask for instructions from above to see if he can contact the Future People Group. It would be great if we could collaborate on virtual reality technology.

Although he also knows that the difficulties involved may not be small... (.)
