Build a game empire from scratch

the next morning.

Lin You looked at the picture that Xiaomeng showed him, and shouted in his heart that it was outrageous.

On the screen, densely packed players stood on the "corpse" of Transformers and took a group photo with the camera.

In the hands of many people, they are still waving parts removed from Transformers...

——In order to increase the fun of the game for the "players", Lin You and Xiao Meng used many "unconventional" methods to make the heavy truck.

Many of the things inside did not conform to the physical rules of Night City at all, so naturally there was no way to call a tow truck to drag them back to the modification room for maintenance.

Night City also doesn't have such a big modification workshop.

So last night, when they saw that the players were getting denser and their invisibility was almost unbearable, they simply left the Transformers on the spot and left there.

Originally, Lin You expected the result in his heart: the game world arrived on the second day, and the Transformers were directly refreshed by the game mechanism.

But he didn't expect that the players had no tendency to leave at all, and had been interacting with this thing all the time, which made the system unable to refresh the scrapped Transformers as useless data.

——Unless it is a special setting, as long as the item is held by the player or has interacted with the player, it cannot be refreshed directly. This is a special right given to the player for the immersion of the game.

So throughout the night, players were interacting with Transformers.

The specific form of interaction is - disassembly.

It's just that it didn't go well. At first, many players didn't have tools in their hands, and they were really "dismantling the mecha with bare hands".

After finding that it didn't work, I started looking for tools everywhere, but I still could only remove some of the most superficial things-these things were the parts of the original heavy truck after deformation.

The remaining "fictitious parts" that violate the rules of Night City cannot be removed at all.

Not to mention crowbars, chainsaws, and electric drills, they don't even wear explosives.

So the second half of the interaction became mainly group photos.

Among these group photos, the most widely circulated one is the one that Xiaomeng showed Lin You now.

The corpse of the huge robot, and the crowd of people who are dismantling it densely on the corpse.

This picture brought Lin You a strange sense of sight: it is a bit of a cyberfuture, and a bit of a doomsday wasteland...

Opening the social network, Lin You was not surprised to see that the discussion about "super-large robots" has not subsided in the slightest. Various photos, moving pictures, and short videos are circulating everywhere, and the popularity is astonishing.

It's just that everyone is still talking about what the name of this thing should be called, so that the heat can't be concentrated.

Lin You scratched his chin, feeling that he had to educate the netizens.

So he took the tablet, opened the [Mech Related] folder, and found a few photos.

Then start editing the news and post it.

Article 1:

"This is the exoskeleton armor."

Pictured: Conceptual picture of a full set of exoskeleton armor.

Netizens saw that Lin You, an NPC, was finally resurrected and started bubbling, so they naturally rushed to watch the excitement.

Seeing the exoskeleton armor, everyone expressed a lack of interest:

"This is something to carry out the logistics of the army, is it armed?"

"What army logistics, my second brother started using this thing to deliver express last year!"

"Some ideas, but not many."

"What do you mean by posting this? More large robots!"

...

Lin You didn't have time to reply, and then posted a second update:

"This is a full-cover small mechanical power armor, referred to as: Humanoid Mecha."

Pictured: Iron Man Mark 3 red gold color classic.

Seeing this new thing, netizens are more or less interested:

"Although this thing doesn't look very reasonable at first glance, but I have to say, it's still a bit pretty."

"The problem is that this thing doesn't seem to have any practical value, does it?"

"The bulletproof effect must be very good, that is, shock absorption and impact resistance. I don't know how to do it?"

"By the way, if you wear this thing, even with mechanical assistance, you can't run fast at all, right?"

"It doesn't even have a wheel, so if you run a fart, you will be bombed, right?"

...

Obviously, there is only one picture, without any background story and function introduction. Everyone subconsciously starts from a practical point of view, and they are not very accepting of this kind of armor.

Then comes the third article:

"This is a medium-sized mechanical power armor, referred to as: a medium-sized mech."

Pictured: The 10-meter-high Transformers transformed from heavy trucks in last night's game.

——The concept of Transformers, Lin You didn't intend to mention it separately, it was directly incorporated into the overall concept of mechs.

Seeing this, the players immediately abandoned the idea of ​​being practical or not—because you can tell without looking at it that this thing is impossible to be practical at all!

"Oh! This is good, come more and more, children like to watch this!"

"So this is called a mecha!"

"I see. You want to say that these things are in the same line?"

"It seems that there are so many connections, but is your brain opening too big all of a sudden, going too far?"

"I'm just asking you when it will start selling in Night City? You must buy it! Hurry up, hurry up! Do you even need us to teach you how to make money?!"

"Do you understand money in sacks?!"

...

Everyone thought that it was over here, after all, the big guy I saw last night had already appeared.

Everyone already knows the name of the big guy.

But soon, everyone was surprised to see another post from Lin You jumped out——

"Finally, this is the super-large mechanical power armor, abbreviated as: Man's Romance."

Picture: "Pacific Rim", a dangerous homeless person, 79 meters tall and 1980 tons in weight!

This super-large mecha stood silently in the pouring rain at night, and the huge nuclear-powered turbine engine on its chest was emitting a blazing light.

The 20-storey high-rise around him can barely reach the shoulders of this large mecha!

Intuitively, people can feel how amazing the size of this guy is!

Everyone has no doubt that if you see this guy in the virtual world, the deterrent effect will definitely suffocate you!

"I just accepted a 10-meter-high large robot, and you turned around and headed for 100 meters?! Why don't you play the world record here?"

"Who the hell is going to explain to me, what the hell is this!!"

"I solemnly declare: Take back the foreword! I don't want the 10-meter-high large mecha in front of me! Whoever wants it, I want it! I want it now!!!"

“ @Lin You, you made this kind of big guy, surely you didn’t come out of boredom to play it? It’s definitely going to be a game!! Then get it out quickly! I’m so fucking crazy!”

...

excited.

An indescribable sense of excitement suddenly ignited in the hearts of the players.

It made them have an extremely strong and urgent desire to drive a super-large mecha.

Lin You looked at the comment that guessed that he was going to make a mecha game, and hesitated whether to give him a like.

But after thinking about the research progress of this game-related technology, he still put away his eager hands.

Foreshadowing in advance, this is all right now.

He really gave too much hope and excited the players, but he still can't play the game, so do you want to see the players in the future?

You can't really meet each other and be besieged by players once, right?

Lin You fell silent, letting the players continue to guess in the comment area, while he got into Yue Pengju's car and set off for work.

In the driver's seat, Yue Pengju was thinking about how to speak while driving, and asked that "little dream" who he was in reality and where he came from.

But before he could speak, Lin You's cell phone rang suddenly.

Lin You picked it up and saw that it was He Peng.

Previously, He Peng asked three times in a week about the development progress of the "Secret Communication" technology, but Lin You told him every time: "I'm researching it."

From then on, he knew how to stop urging, and instead texted once a week to ask.

So Lin You was a little surprised to see He Peng's call.

When I picked up the phone, I just said "Hello?"

He Peng quickly interrupted: "Lin You! You don't really want to be that mech, do you?"

"Huh?" Lin You froze for a moment.

If he had to say it, he really wanted to do it... After all, it's a man's romance...

The problem is that it can't be done!

At the beginning, Xiaomeng was full of "I have blueprints!"

Otherwise, he would have to fight two out of high and low...

Lin You's pause made He Peng a little flustered.

The transforming robot in the virtual world yesterday—now they know it's called a mecha, when it showed up, everyone was a big fan of it.

Because the performance when transforming is too exaggerated, a knowledgeable person can tell at a glance that it is a special effect to deceive people, so naturally it will not be taken seriously.

As a result, after looking at it this morning, Lin You directly figured out the development path of Ka Ka Ka's technology.

The small mecha and the medium mecha still look outrageous.

Too big to comment on.

Only the original set of exoskeletons looked similar, which made it difficult for them to make a conclusion for a while.

But according to He Peng's understanding of Lin You, if he is really serious about working on exoskeletons, and finally come up with a set of advanced enough things, it is entirely possible!

If Lin You plans to make a large-scale mech, he must start with the most basic exoskeleton, so the renderings of the exoskeleton also look the most reliable.

The subsequent route still completely exists in his imagination for the time being, so the renderings look unrealistic, which is completely reasonable.

Perhaps after Lin You has developed the exoskeleton and accumulated enough technology, he will have more realistic ideas for the following types of mechs?

——Of course, the super-large mecha is an exception, which is too outrageous no matter how you look at it.

After He Peng went through the above mental journey, and then thought about the virtual reality equipment, before Lin You came up with it, they also thought it was an impossible technology...

Since Lin You has created the impossible once, who can guarantee that he will not create it again?

This forced He Peng to pick up his phone and call Lin You...
