Chapter 290 The man who changed the game

In children's competitions, most of the young players who wear the initial appearance and look like capsules are still in the stage of growing their bodies, and the height difference is easily noticeable.

There was no need to wait until the start of the race. When they stood at the starting line and waited for the countdown, they could clearly see that the sizes of the "capsules" were quite inconsistent.

There are still a lot of people who are twenty-three, let alone under 16 years old.

They are two years apart in age and a head in height.

This still does not take into account the issue of fatness and thinness...

On a track where the gravity is weakened by Lin You, a fat man who is only 12 years old but weighs 200 pounds is very lethal!

This is especially true when his opponents are just a group of players weighing less than 100 pounds!

Not to mention that in the virtual game, the negative effects in reality such as excessive physical exertion and inability to run are removed for him.

This resulted in him running on the track almost like a heavy tank, pushing all the way and being unstoppable!

Lin You saw with his own eyes that five or six little girls in front of him were unable to escape and were directly hit by him.

When I got up, my little face wrinkled up and I felt like I was about to cry...

The 1.95 meter player that Xia Yi met was not that tall and thin. His physique was so strong that it even made Lin You doubt his career in reality.

——Rugby is not popular in Daxia, right?

Even on a standard track full of adults over the age of 16, this strong man's performance is almost the same as that of a "little fat man" on a children's track.

The player standing in front of him was easily knocked off his feet and turned into a mess.

The only thing that makes Lin You feel fortunate is that the proportion of players with such outrageous physiques among the tens of millions of players is still very small.

As for the [Children's Track], which is prone to problems, he and Xiaomeng have divided it into three age groups in advance, at least to avoid the most extreme situation of "a player who has just turned 10 years old meets a player who is one day shy of 16 years old".

Condition……

Although it is still impossible to completely avoid the problems caused by the height difference, at least players can still play.

In addition, the track is mainly for entertainment racing, and the confrontation atmosphere is not strong, so it will not cause serious harm in a short period of time.

However, it is still necessary to resolve it as soon as possible.

In the group chat of the studio, members who were assigned to the "Paradise" operation team also noticed this problem by paying attention to the dynamics of Lingxi and the player forum, and were already discussing countermeasures in the group.

——Although Lin You stipulates that you get off work at 5 p.m., employees are used to getting off work at that time, and then they can develop their hobbies or learn to improve their skills.

But whenever a new game is released, or there is a relatively important time such as a game development sprint, employees will really work overtime on their own initiative.

After all, Yunmeng not only has a high bonus if the project is successful, but also has considerable overtime wages, matching meal subsidies and transportation subsidies.

Even if employees don't shout "working overtime makes me happy", they are at least willing to do so.

The first solution they discussed was: How about dividing the players' weights again?

"[The weight division of competitive competitions] is a very mature system that has been tested in real-world competitions and can be directly copied into games."

But after Lin You thought about it for a moment, he felt that it was too cumbersome and difficult to implement.

It’s not that the venue grading system is complicated to design.

——If necessary, the design is still very simple. It only requires Lin You to touch his upper and lower lips, and then Xiao Meng snaps his fingers, and the work is almost done.

At most, some fine-tuning will be done based on big data later.

But collecting player weight data is another problem.

In today's games, players' bodies and appearances all appear to be highly realistic, but careful players have long discovered that appearance is not a complete replica of reality, but a replica of "self-perception image."

Weight is the same.

It's not that the Mirage host is so powerful that it can measure the player's precise weight based on brain waves - that's impossible...

Instead, the Mirage host captures the player's self-perception of weight and then reproduces it in the virtual world.

And this captured cognition is actually a vague cognition.

Mirage can only capture the player's shallow, vague cognition, and cannot directly read precise memories.

Lin You became a special case among special cases because he accepted the gift that he still didn't know what it was, and because of Xiao Meng's existence.

Therefore, this reproduced image will even change synchronously according to the changes in the player's own cognition.

For example, a player who is losing weight will find that as his weight becomes lighter and lighter in real life, his figure in the game will also become better and better.

And if this player is careful enough, he will find something more interesting: the figure in the virtual world changes faster than in reality!

This is because the increase in self-confidence brought about by weight loss and the subconscious beautification of the effects of exercise have caused the image in the virtual world to change more obviously than in reality.

I have said so much just to explain: Yunmeng actually does not have the accurate height and weight data of the players, and there is still a certain amount of fuzzy space in these two data, which will change to a certain extent as the players' cognition changes.

If you want to classify players based on their weight, you need players to fill in their own weight.

This again involves the issue of player privacy.

Will players resist asking for personal privacy data?

Most likely.

And if the player fills in a heavier or lighter word, how do you verify it?

If it is said that it is extremely difficult and impossible to do, then it is not even possible.

Among the underlying algorithms for building a virtual world, there is a set of specialized algorithms used to anchor the player's height and weight data in a fuzzy state - otherwise, many interactions between the player and the virtual world simply cannot occur.

But this algorithm operates in packets.

If you are not afraid of trouble, you can make a separate copy, make targeted adjustments, and embed it into the system of "Paradise". It is indeed possible.

But unfortunately, Lin You hates trouble the most.

So he prefers simple and crude methods, such as giving everyone the same weight!

Each competition venue is given a standard "virtual weight".

This "virtual weight" will not allow players to really feel this "fake weight" in the virtual world.

The player's own feeling is still the perceived weight. Only when a "collision" occurs, the collision effect will be calculated based on this "virtual weight".

At that time, the scene may be a bit counter-intuitive - for example, a 70-pound child and a 200-pound child collide head-on, and the result is no winner...

But the fairness issue is solved!

The same idea can be applied to the height issue: all give players the same stride length!

Moreover, players are not given an average stride length - Lin You is very generous in this regard. He plans to provide all players with the maximum stride data recorded since the launch of the "Paradise" server.

The player who left this record is quite ridiculously tall, a full 2.26 meters tall!

In every game he appears in, he stands out from the crowd, like a little giant.

The tops of other players' heads can only reach his waist!

The plan was finalized, and Lin You did not delay and directly prepared for online hot repair.

All players in the match will be canceled directly. Players in the match will also receive a prompt and wait for updates after the match ends.

After waiting for a few minutes and all games were suspended, the hot repair started!

From the moment they received the prompt, the audience in the Super Tomato live broadcast room immediately became excited:

"It's great! Lin You doesn't keep his word, he still needs to be repaired!"

"Hahaha, even after being caught on the spot, you still don't restrain yourself and keep stealing chickens. How can Lin You not become angry with shame?"

"Knowing the law and breaking the law will result in an additional penalty!"

"Maybe Lin You didn't leave at all, and kept peeping in the live broadcast room! Seeing you keep doing things, you finally couldn't stand it anymore?"

""Husband is currently committing a crime""

"Translate, translate, what is a man who changes the game!"

"Speaking of which, host, why don't you perform an apology? / Dog Head"

…

The audience in the live broadcast room unanimously agreed, and Super Tomato himself was a little unsure.

He said unconfidently: "Yes, it should be...not right?"
Chapter completed!
