Build a game empire from scratch - Chapter 1255

c1246 Old players are playing Wushuang, and new players are playing Battlefield

Lin You had this idea, so he took action immediately.

During the free discussion during the second half of the meeting, Lin You came up with this idea:

If you want to build a large aircraft that can operate in the upper atmosphere, based on today’s technology and regardless of cost, is there any feasible route?

If not, what technical difficulties need to be overcome?

If it is possible, then what if we go one step further and want this large aircraft to break through the atmosphere and travel to and from low-Earth orbit?

Generally speaking, this kind of question does not appear in top academic exchange conferences. Instead, it is more common in science fiction enthusiast forums or in assignments assigned to students by professors in university elective courses.

At the end of the day, fun outweighs execution.

But Lin You’s identity is different after all.

He may not be the most powerful scientific researcher in the world today, but he is definitely the freest one in the world.

To truly have immeasurable resources and wealth, and to be able to do research according to one’s own will – this is the dream state of almost every scientific researcher, and Lin You already has this condition.

At the same time, he has proven his strength time and time again.

Once the two are combined, you have to think: Is he asking such a question just out of interest, or is he really tempted and planning to do something big?

If he really wants to do it, can he do it?

What if… what if it could?

Even just this possibility made the aerospace engineers present become serious. They could not regard it as a casual topic to adjust the atmosphere, but followed Lin You’s ideas to think about the possibility.

After that, these big guys were very generous and had a long and in-depth chat about the problems that would be encountered in building such a “large aircraft” and possible solutions.

While everyone was chatting, Xiaomeng drew the image of the “large aircraft” in real time in the conference hall.

This aircraft is not like Lin You and Xiao Meng’s space carrier – it is much more conservative in terms of size and shape.

Lin You didn’t interrupt with random comments and add personal information. Instead, he listened patiently and at most asked questions where he didn’t follow the train of thought.

With the collective efforts of these big guys, this real-time image has become larger and larger, the details inside have become clearer and clearer, and a large number of formulas and numerical units have been continuously filled in.

Problems that cannot be solved will be marked in red with possible solutions and experimental ideas.

The Daxia engineers present were particularly attentive. Many of them had already opened the auxiliary software and were checking the calculations while thinking.

In the end, too much time passed, and it was already lunch time, so this strange exchange came to an end.

Before the end, Lin You also distributed a round of digital business cards, poaching the top overseas aerospace engineers present.

This action made He Peng’s eyelids jump.

Originally, as long as an aerospace engineer was tempted to immigrate, he would definitely join the Daxia Aerospace Institute, but with Lin You’s intervention, it was hard to say…

Although Yunmeng does not currently have aerospace-related business, if Lin You really wants to do it, then he can have it.

Daxia Aerospace Institute or Yunmeng?

The mere appearance of this choice is enough to give some people a headache.

The engineers at the Aerospace Academy also looked a little weird – Good guy, we thought you could make some contribution in the aerospace field, and maybe you could join the Aerospace Academy to work together.

How about you start poaching right away?

What if you dig it privately? !

*

Lin You didn’t care about this.

In his opinion, as long as he doesn’t poach engineers from the Aerospace Academy, the rest depends on fate!

It wasn’t until he walked out of the meeting and was carried home by Yue Pengju that Xiaomeng told him: The [Return to the Starry Sky] mission progress reached 40%, triggering the invasion event, and now the players are being pressed by the NPCs of [General Energy] Beat him on the head.

Lin You was a little surprised.

The NPCs in [Universal Energy] are not super powerful in combat. The strongest BOSS is only 10% stronger than the BOSS in the final battle of the main plot. Plus there is a dynamic difficulty that increases the blood volume based on the number of surrounding players – he doesn’t even have Let the BOSS’s attack power increase as the number of players increases.

The only remaining difficulty is the systematic NPC army.

As long as the players organize themselves, divide the tasks of air combat and land combat, and then snipe the BOSS, it shouldn’t be difficult.

——No matter how many NPC troops there are, can they still outnumber players?

He looked at Xiao Meng in confusion.

Xiaomeng immediately waved his hand and opened several holographic screens in the air, showing him the anxious battlefield in the virtual world at this moment.

In fact, the description of “anxiety” is somewhat beautifying to current players.

The real situation is: players are being rubbed like crazy!

Centered on the launch base where the space elevator is located, players are forming a line of defense, struggling to resist the attack of [General Energy].

But this line of defense has nothing to do with being solid, and is being broken through by NPCs almost every minute and every second.

Then more players will swarm forward, stacking their lives crazily at any cost, and plug the gap again.

Then another location will be breached by NPC…

Players push back…

So back and forth.

It’s not like there are no outstanding player teams. Lin You saw that A Yi, who was usually very unreliable, was now leading a team to the front line.

The defense around them was broken through again and again, but they always stayed there without retreating, which ensured that the defense could be replenished again instead of completely collapsing.

Such “nails” were scattered scattered throughout the entire circular front, giving the entire battle a glimmer of hope.

There is also a special team led by Lin Shun. This is a group of players with the highest level and the strongest combat effectiveness. The mobile team composed of them is responsible for killing powerful BOSS that breaks through the defense line.

If it weren’t for these people, [General Energy]’s invasion would have been successful, and the space elevator at this moment would have been hacked in and even blown to pieces.

The pictures Xiao Meng chose were very targeted, helping Lin You quickly grasp the key points:

Those solid defense lines are all veteran players who have invested ten or twenty days in “Cyber ​​Chang’an: 2077”, and their combat effectiveness is guaranteed.

Not to mention one against ten, at least one against five easily.

But for those players who enter the public world after it opens, their combat effectiveness is very problematic.

——They only have basic standard weapons and some weapons obtained in missions. There is no systematic career system bonus. They are almost just a large NPC.

[General Energy]’s high-power laser weapon can hit a well-equipped advanced transformer and mechanical warrior, and they can get back up after falling down, but if it hits a player without a professional template, it will kill them instantly! No suspense!

To sum it up in one sentence: old players are playing Wushuang, and new players are playing Battlefield.

At this time, the world mission progress remains:

[36%]

If it falls below 35%, the NPCs in Chang’an City will fully join the battle.

But at the same time, [General Energy] will also launch a general offensive.

“You’re not going to have a full-scale war, are you?”

Lin You really didn’t expect that things would develop to this point.
