Build a game empire from scratch

The topic of the construction contest gave the players something to talk about on a tired Monday morning.

After ending the topic of looking for ready-made projects, serious recruitment posts finally began to appear one after another.

In "Minecraft", there are actually a lot of players who don't like public games, and are even more afraid that their buildings will be destroyed by strangers, so they always play the game alone.

And many introverted players who are easy to immerse themselves in their own world just have a lot of ideas and creativity.

Yunmeng's construction competition provides them with a valuable opportunity to come up with their own ideas, invite others to join with the goal of the competition, cultivate friendship and make friends during the common game process.

The posts popping up on social networks, game forums, and the Yunmeng zone are the beginning of their walk out of the isolated island.

When it was close to 12 o'clock noon, Yunmeng released a new wave of topics for the players to chat during lunch time——

"November [Honorary Players] list released."

This is not the news of a certain game, but the [Honorary Players] list of all virtual reality games.

The repercussions aroused are naturally much higher than the "Minecraft" competition announcement!

Players opened the official account of the game they played the longest and cared about the most to see who was on the list and what they did.

"Journeyman" and "Light Yu", there is no big news, basically the game time is relatively long, and the player who helped more strangers won the title.

"Paradise" is more interesting. The discovery, conquest and exploration of Dinosaur Island, coupled with the discovery of Jurassic Park, has produced more than forty honorary players.

"League of Assassins" is outrageous, "posthumously awarded" the titles of those players who were the first batch of Ayi and Yelang to blast into the bathroom.

Just looking at the speed at which [Bather Table Lamp] spread rapidly among the player base, one can imagine that they made a lot of contribution to the sales of the game...

In addition, the [Full Armor Fighting Competition] organized by Wu Di and the others, was also awarded more than 20 honorary player titles by Yunmeng because of the expansion of the game's playability and considerable influence on the Internet.

Among them, there are not only outstanding players in the competition, but also the core organizers of the event.

But the most numerous are the blacksmiths who forged the mighty armor for the players.

"Quick Chase" awarded titles to the top three in the four consecutive indiscriminate death racing competitions.

However, because Han Qing participated repeatedly, failed to win the championship, but frequently appeared in the top three, and the title could not be awarded to one person repeatedly, so only 7 were issued in the end.

In addition, there are three other players who challenged the limit. They did not use hot weapons throughout the process, but only relied on a knife to survive the hail of bullets and cleared the main storyline.

This earned them the title of [Honorary Player] for this issue.

——These three people didn't stop there, they are currently trying to throw away hot weapons and cold weapons at the same time, and clear the main storyline with bare hands. It's just that this challenge has just begun, and there is no hope of success for the time being.

Other parts are obtained by players in competition, exploration, creation and other fields.

Among them, a super popular fan novel written by players has to be mentioned.

The novel tells the story of a player who time travels to become John Wick, treats his wife Helen Wick early, and discovers that his wife is also a top killer.

Because of a misunderstanding and the pursuit of mysterious forces, the husband and wife had to fight and kill while fleeing hand in hand.

They attack each other and love each other, so they slowly resolve their conflicts and get back together in the process of fighting back against the mysterious forces. Finally, after eradicating the mysterious forces behind them, they become the strongest husband and wife killers in Night City.

The rhythm of the novel is very well controlled, with both thrilling battles and sweet love.

There is no shortage of stories, and the dog food is also very sufficient. In the finale, they even adopted a dog.

While completely making up for the regrets of the players, it also gives enough new fun.

So it is no surprise that this fan novel is so popular that it has even spread to Europe with the help of Yunmeng's intelligent translation function.

The latest development is: someone has been authorized by the author [Sig], and has already started to organize people to shoot the big movie "The Wicks" in Night City...

Lin You is still looking forward to this.

"Hunter: Call of the Wild" has been released for a short time, and the title of [Honorary Player] is mostly awarded to the hardest players with the longest playing time, the highest hunting level, the fastest collection of illustrated books...etc.

Of course, there must be exceptions.

Ivan Ivanov also received the title of [Honorary Player], but he got it not by hunting, but by building hunting lodges.

Yes, with just a hunting knife, he built himself a log cabin on the map of Layton Lake District.

There are not only walls, floors and roofs, but also windows, tables, chairs, stools, cabinets, etc., and recently even started to dig a fish pond.

In order to prevent these things from being refreshed by the system, he has to sit in the hut every day.

——But from now on, he doesn't have to worry about this problem anymore: Xiaomeng ran over to help him fix this more and more exquisite and livable wooden house when he won the title of [Honorary Player].

"My World", no surprise to the players: All members of the Ender Dragon's first kill team are on the list.

Then there are several player alliance "lords" who made announcements, and even the player who called on everyone to go to [World 22] to have a good time, also successfully entered the list and won the title.

The only exception is that Baekje anchor Kim Dong-joon.

At this moment, Jin Dongjun was looking at the list and was furious, angrily denouncing the unfair selection of the operation team of "Minecraft".

——He didn't dare to scold Yunmeng or Lin You, so he could only attack the operation team.

But in fact, it was Lin You's opinion that his name was not on the list.

The reason Lin You gave was: to maliciously divide players and affect unity.

This is naturally not in line with Yunmeng's philosophy.

Finally, it's the turn of "Battlefield", which has only been on sale for three days.

Qin Songyun and Fan Rui actually discussed whether to skip "Battlefield" this time and wait until December is over before starting the selection.

But their ideas were rejected by Lin You.

——Lin You is in a hurry to give out the title of [Honorary Player] to the "democracy fighters"!

This is a democratic fighter pleading for the people. Isn't that enough honor to fight for better Internet conditions for the players at his own risk?

If it weren't for the obvious meaning of fighting the fire, Lin You would have wished to give them the honorary title of "Democracy Fighter".

Therefore, 80% of the honorary players in this issue of "Battlefield" are awarded to the players with the highest level and the highest winning rate.

The other 20% was given to players who participated in real-life protests and marches, calling on the government of their country to lift the "unfair restrictions" on Yunmeng.

This list has greatly encouraged players who participated in protests in Britain, Germany, America and other countries!

At the same time, many players in Great Xia were both gloating and filled with righteous indignation.

It’s easy to understand schadenfreude: my internet speed is top-notch, and my opponent’s internet speed is poor, so of course I have to gloat.

And filled with righteous indignation, the general psychology is: "This epoch-making technology, willing to sell it to you, is showing mercy. If you don't provide convenience, it's fine, and there are restrictions? Give you face, right?"

For a while, there were not a few players who were cursing.

But Lin You himself didn't think so.

He knows that the situation that "servers and domestic player data are all in the hands of foreign companies" is unacceptable to many countries.

He also admitted that this behavior was a bit excessive.

But there is no way, the structure of the virtual world is completely different from traditional games, not only in the carrier, but also in the essence of the technology.

The server center must be completely in the hands of Yunmeng, in order to ensure technical security and player information security to the greatest extent.

Coordinating the brain's fuzzy computing power to provide a better virtual world game experience also requires the server to be completely under Xiaomeng's control.

If the server is under the control of others, it means that all of Yunmeng's actions are carried out under the noses of others.

At that time, can the so-called "partners" really hold back their thoughts?

Even if they really hold back, will someone come out and make them "can't help it"?

Lin You will not trust foreign partners 100%, let alone the bottom line of foreign governments.

All these reasons have determined that Lin You can't give in.

Even if doing so is a bit overbearing and will make overseas expansion more difficult, he has no intention of changing this decision.
