Chapter 75
The public beta players had received the news three hours in advance, and most of the players who signed up had their own small circles.
The student dormitories at Lengguo Medical College each sleep eight people. Everyone in Dormitory 202 signed up for the public beta test, but no one was selected. This sparked discussion among the students:
"It seems our dormitory has bad luck!"
"Yeah, surprisingly, no one was chosen."
"I just asked, and no one from dorm 204 got selected."
"The class group is also discussing this matter. It seems that no one in our school has qualified for the public beta test."
"No way?"
"It seems to be true, look at ims!"
The other people in the dormitory quickly opened their Instagram accounts and saw a post that read:
According to incomplete statistics, only 5% of the people from Leng Country have obtained the qualification for the Star Wars public beta test, most of whom are from non-threatening majors such as architecture, fine arts, art, music, etc., as well as a small number of office workers!
-Star Wars, what does this mean?
-Exclude foreign players?
In addition to this post, there are several similar posts on IMS, except that the "cold country" in the title is replaced with another country, and the statistical percentage is replaced with numbers such as 7, 8, 9, 10.
The entire internet was in uproar over this incident, and many people were outraged and commented:
"You think you're an encyclopedia, don't you? Our country would have been able to develop starships and spacecraft without you."
"You're getting cocky, aren't you? Our country has so many talented people, and we need to learn from a crappy game? What a joke!"
These posts were also sorted and moved over by enthusiastic netizens in China, and directly became the number one hot search.
① Well done to Star Wars!
When netizens saw this title, they were a little confused, but when they clicked in, they knew why. It is said that only a few mathematicians, linguists, well-known artists, etc. entered the game, and it seemed that all scientific researchers were passed.
Netizens commented: "Star Wars: You look down on me, and I look down on you. If that's the case, let's just leave each other alone."
"Since you don't approve of me, then don't come. I won't force you!"
When Chinese netizens logged into IMS again, they saw that they were almost threatening to quit the game to the production team, but no matter how big a fuss they made, Lin Luo was unaware of it and had no way to respond, which made them look like clowns.
When foreign netizens saw that this trick didn't work, they logged into the game forum and raised the banner of "quit the game".
Lin Luo could see the posts on the game forum. He saw one of the posters posting, "Reject our scientific researchers from entering the game. This crappy game is for nothing! Quit!"
Lin Luo checked the backend and replied, "You're not a beta player, so why are you quitting the game? Since you want to be blacklisted so badly, I'll grant you that wish."
The following comments: "Hahaha, I am dying of laughter!"
What’s even more amazing is that after Lin Luo posted this comment, the forum quieted down a lot. Those who advocated quitting the game stopped making comments and became quiet, fearing that they would be blacklisted.
They also realized the attitude of Star Wars, which is to play it if you want, and they don’t need you. If you continue to play, you will be blacklisted.
The opinions of foreign netizens were not important at all. The public beta of Star Wars began just like that. 20,000 players poured into the game within a few minutes. Tourists from Dawn Star also saw a group of men and women wearing vests, shorts and flip-flops, and immediately realized who they were!
Thinking of the fear they had felt during those days when they were dominated by the Dawn Star Warriors, they all stayed 10 meters away from the public beta players, but this did not solve the problem at all.
When new players see an NPC, they excitedly ask, "How can I help you?"
Then the players heard the group of NPCs whispering, "When Heaven is about to bestow a great responsibility upon a man, it will first test his mind and make him work hard..."
If the temptation of the East China Sea Dragon Palace wasn't too great, how could they possibly tolerate these lunatics!
Lin Luo looked at the scene outside and mourned for the tourists in his heart.
Annie and her friend were lucky enough to get spots in the public beta test, but as soon as they entered the game, they were separated by the large number of tourists in Dawn Town.
Annie was carried by the crowd to a grilled gluten stall, and the aroma of the mixture of cumin and chili powder made her swallow her saliva.
“This smells so good.”
Just as she was about to buy it, she realized she had no money at all. However, she felt like she was rooted to the spot and couldn't leave. Then she saw an NPC approaching and saying, "It's too expensive. Make it cheaper."
"no."
"It's just one dollar cheaper."
Annie didn't expect that the NPC here would actually bargain, and his facial expression was very natural and his eyes were very smart.
Annie thought about completing the task first and then buying it, so she wanted to find the location of the notice board. During this time, she carefully observed that the NPCs around her were very smart, and everyone's behavior was different. Each one should be an independent AI.
How much does it cost to have so many independent AIs?
Moreover, there are so many NPCs in this scene and it doesn't lag at all. China's holographic technology is really amazing.
Annie accepted the task while thinking about it. Her task was to plant rice. When Annie arrived at the farmland, it was already full of fruits. She could smell the fragrance from the fruits, which made her stomach growl. She felt a little hungry.
Annie imitated the others and bent down to plant rice. After planting for about one time, she felt sore in her back and couldn't help but complain in her heart: How can it be so real!
Despite complaining, she took a break and started planting rice again. It took about half an hour to finish planting, and then she went back to collect the task reward.
Annie also received points and nutrient solution coupons as rewards. As soon as the points arrived, she went to buy grilled gluten. Because she didn't have points to buy the optical computer communication bracelet, Annie used facial recognition payment when paying, which was very convenient.
Annie took a bite of the roasted gluten, and the chili powder smeared on the corners of her mouth. She didn't have time to wipe the corners of her mouth but ate the roasted gluten in big mouthfuls, and then said vaguely: "It's delicious, so fragrant, it's just like the real Chinese food."
"It's great! I can eat authentic Chinese food without leaving home. I'm so happy!"
After eating one, she was still not satisfied. She licked the corner of her mouth and went to buy other food. In the end, her stomach was bloated. Annie couldn't help but say:
"My stomach feels full."
“The game production team is amazing.”
After the 12 hours of online time were up, Annie was still a little reluctant to leave. After logging off, she opened IMS and posted:
——
The game Star Wars is really great. Each NPC has an independent AI and is very realistic, just like a living person.
This game can accommodate hundreds of millions of NPCs without any lag and is very smooth. The game developers have put a lot of effort into it.
...500 words...
...a thousand words...
100% authenticity is well-deserved!
——
Kate: Is this true?
xxxx: Stop licking, I feel embarrassed for you.
hhh: Determination is complete, you lick the dog!
ppp: Star Wars has done such a ridiculous thing that it doesn’t allow scientific researchers and medical professors from other countries to enter the game. Why don’t you quit the game?
Annie's face turned red with anger after seeing these comments. She couldn't help but reply: It's none of your business if I'm playing my own game!
She searched for foreign players on IMS who spoke up for Star Wars, and found that the comments section was full of advice to quit the game, as well as some personal attacks.
She thought of an old Chinese saying: There are all kinds of birds in a big forest, what bad luck!
Thinking of this, she replied: I will play and broadcast live when the time comes, and make you guys mad to death!
During this public beta, players can live broadcast in the game, but they can only use the live broadcast room that comes with the game, and cannot use the existing Mofan, Slow Hand, and Magic Sound live broadcast rooms on the market.
The popularity of Star Wars on Blue Star has become a circle of its own and there is no need for advertising at all, so the advertising coupons in Lin Luo's hand are basically useless. Now he is grinding the system, wanting to exchange the advertising coupons for other task rewards.
In short, if System 188 disagrees, he will keep talking, with the aim of annoying him until he agrees.
System 188 was so frustrated that it had no other choice but to exchange the two advertising coupons in Lin Luo's hand for two packs of mutant fruit seeds, but Lin Luo still felt it was inappropriate.
"Advertising vouchers can be used to cross from Dawn Star to another Blue Star in time and space, but giving me two packets of seeds is not worth the same!"
"Five packs, no more."
"Okay."
…
On the other side, in the meeting room of the Galaxy Guard of Blue Star Orange Feather Game Company
Han Yun was also aware of the turmoil caused by Starship Wars. He knew that no one could stop the rise of Starship Wars, and he believed that no one could replicate his success. What was even more helpless was that he had no way to deal with Starship Wars.
Han Yun thought for a long time before coming up with a good plan. Maybe it would not be able to surpass Star Wars in the short term, but he believed that their company would definitely come from behind and surpass them. He assigned the task to the public relations department.
Under the operation of the public relations department, a bunch of posts popped up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain on platforms such as Moyin and vbo. The content of these posts is similar, all of which require the JJXXLT2021 studio to which Star Wars belongs to hand over the patent for 100% holographic games for the benefit of all mankind.
The game streamer Mo Kon also casually discussed during the live broadcast: "If the holographic technology of Star Wars can be shared with all of humanity, it would be a real advancement of the times. It could build a second world for humanity."
The big hat of benefiting all mankind was directly put on Star Wars' head, as if it would be a heinous crime if it did not hand over the patent. This is obviously moral kidnapping.
Logically speaking, public opinion should be on the side of Starship Wars, but the reality is not the case, because Han Yun hired a large number of internet trolls to control comments, and some celebrity idols made comments, and their fans are also on the same side as their idols. In addition, they have never played Starship Wars and have no sense of belonging to it. Instead, they think that since only a small number of players can enter at a time, it is better to contribute the technology and let other companies develop it so that more players can enter.
The various rhetoric-stirring remarks online are not only being made by Orange Feather Company, but also by other gaming companies.
For a while, the Internet was full of comments of moral blackmail.
"Hand over the 100% holographic patent to benefit all mankind and realize the dream of the second world!"
Han Yun sat in the office with a sneer. He wanted to see how the official Star Wars would respond. No matter how they responded, he had a way to deal with it in his mind. He had to hand over this technology even if he didn't want to!
