Vol 2 Chapter 441: Bad graphics card

Chapter 441 Bad Graphics Card

All players applauded the launch of Jianxia Qingyuan Zhizhong Serve the Country. Cancel the traditional upgrade and adopt the realm level of the martial arts master in the martial arts novels, which in itself feels novel and fresh, and also adopts a brand-new upgrade system, a brand-new attack and defense determination system, especially players will be able to participate in the promotion of the game background This is even more exciting for players.

Of course, the most exciting thing for players is that all players play on the same server. It is exciting to think about the scenario where millions of people are online. However, before many players are happy for long, the overwhelming criticisms from various online game companies and industry experts are like a basin of ice water, instantly drenching all players to the heart.

The "Second World" server cannot host millions of players online at the same time! ——Many players who have awakened from extreme excitement have also noticed this problem that cannot be ignored. What's more, even if the servers of the "Second World" can be loaded, the computers of their players cannot load the amazing image processing data of millions of people online. Usually hundreds of people appear on the same map at the same time, it is enough to get stuck. If millions of people are online at the same time, in a large battle, at least one hundred thousand people on a map, how can the player's computer process such a huge amount of image data?

The graphics card can't carry it!

In the midst of doubts and condemnation, Bruce Allen made a speech, announcing that he had joined the "Second World" and became the head of the hardware development department of the "Second World" technology research department, responsible for the research and development of supercomputers and at the same time researching micro supercomputers.

This news, like a thunder on the ground, trembled the entire IT world.

Does the "Second World" want to independently develop supercomputers? ——Oh my God! This is not a joke!

All the companies and experts in the IT industry seemed to have heard the most ridiculous jokes of this century, and sneered, thinking that the "Second World" is not self-reliant, and this is a ridiculous fallacy in the world. It’s ridiculous that a million people are online just now, but now they want to develop a supercomputer. Isn’t that ridiculous!

A company that has only been established for two years and is mainly engaged in the development of game software, suddenly said that it would develop supercomputers. This is simply a dream, thinking that supercomputers are cabbage and carrots, as long as they want to grow them.

But amidst the sneer, when the identity of Bruce Allen gradually emerged in front of everyone, everyone was shocked. In 1998, I used 70,000 US dollars to make a supercomputer. Last year, I helped an entertainment company spend 2 million US dollars to develop a supercomputer, and it actually ranked 204th in the world supercomputer rankings. This result is really impressive. Had to stand in awe.

Although Bruce Allen has not worked in any computer hardware production company, his DIY spirit and technology are worthy of admiration. It's just why such a person, abandoning many super companies and not joining, but joining a company that mainly designs game software, this is really intriguing.

According to some unconfirmed gossip rumors: The blue giant "ibm" once hired Bruce Allen with a million dollars in annual salary plus the terms of the general counsel of the research department, but was rejected. So what kind of terms did Lin Feng impress Bruce? Where is Alan? Many reporters are curious, and many companies that have invited Bruce Allen’s company but were rejected are more interested.

"Hehe, because my daughter is a crazy fan of Miss Avril, she has a wish that Miss Avril can sing her birthday greetings on her birthday this year. I think, to fulfill my daughter’s wish, join The'second world' is the wisest choice." Bruce Allen said slyly.

Reporters who did not know the inside story and many companies heard it and were in an uproar. Obviously, no one expected that a birthday song could buy such a great guy to play for the "Second World", and they were jealous of Lin Feng's good fortune. Of course, at the same time, I was wronged by Avril. Why did I like this Chinese, and Lin Feng who is still riding two boats?

Bruce Allen ignored everyone's dumbness. Here is Cohen's "cloud computing", as well as Kevin Mitnick's world's first hacking technology, coupled with his supercomputer, will form the sharpest "weapon" in the future network industry. He, like Kevin Mitnick and Cohen, are lunatics, but the areas of madness are different.

But the three of them all have a dream, suggesting a network empire, a super empire that controls all the resources of the network, where they are kings. And Lin Feng undoubtedly gave them a chance. Compared with the U.S. government, the three of them prefer Lin Feng, because Lin Feng is a businessman and will not force them to do many things they don't want to do like the government does.

However, after confirming that Bruce Allen is the craziest, most technologically advanced diy player in the industry, and capable of making supercomputers, it is by no means good news for all domestic online game companies.

The "Second World" has always had two weaknesses, one is 3d online games and the other is 2d turn-based online games. This is also the space for many online game companies to survive temporarily. Unexpectedly, before so many companies could catch their breath, the "Second World" had already stepped into the world of large-scale 3D role-playing online games, and it was so "extremely evil" and so "violent".

auzw.com A brand-new upgrade system, a brand-new attack determination, a brand-new mission system, a brand-new faction system, plus a battle of millions of people, all of these are a challenge for other online game companies A fatal blow, and left them powerless to fight back.

Among all online game companies, the most annoying is undoubtedly the "Ninetowns". I wanted to use miracles and magic babies to open up a new situation in the domestic online game market and break the "second world" monopoly. Unexpectedly, magic babies just recovered their data. , Ready to re-open the service, the "Second World" has already become the root of the "Nine Cities".

Ninetowns headquarters.

"Everyone, now; Second World; finally launched its 3d role-playing online game, what should our company do." Zhu Jun said with a grim expression.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, but they don’t have any ideas.

"Dong Zhu, I don't think it is necessary to be so alarmed for the time being." President Chen Xiaowei said after a moment of thought.

"Oh, what do you say?" Zhu Jun looked at the beautiful president he had invited.

"Zhu Dong, the essence of swordsman love and loyalty to serve the country belong to the martial arts type of 3D online game, miracle belongs to the Western magic, the two do not conflict." Chen Xiaowei said slowly.

Zhu Jun did not agree with Chen Xiaowei's reason. Although China’s online game market has grown in size ahead of schedule, the total number of online online players’ major games can have an average of more than 7 million online players, but the four “Second World” games account for nearly 5 million online players. All other online games The total number of games is less than 2 million (not counting Tencent game users). If the "Second World" re-opens the swordsman love loyalty to serve the country, I am afraid that the remaining 2 million players will be robbed by the "Second World". Going to a big chunk, this is not good news for all game companies. Just saying that the two games are of different types does not reassure Zhu Jun.

"Zhu Dong, there is really the most critical point. Even if the'Second World' develops a supercomputer that can load the data traffic of millions of players online at the same time, the player's computer cannot withstand such amazing image processing data. We If there are more than 300 players in one screen, the graphics card of the player’s computer is at full capacity, not to mention the millions of players boasted by the essence of the swordsman’s love and loyalty to serve the country.” Chen Xiaowei calmly analyzed.

Zhu Jun listened and nodded again and again. This was indeed a key, a fatal blow that made the swordsman's love and loyalty to serve the country unable to achieve the desired effect. If the "Second World" diverts players, then the so-called large-scale battle, allowing players to advance the historical background, is undoubtedly a joke. Once the players are divided, hundreds of players, or thousands of players, can this be called a large-scale battle?

Lin Feng, I will see how your cowhide breaks this time! ——Zhu Jun and Chen Xiaowei sneered.

Although all players have heard that the "Second World" is about to develop a supercomputer independently, they are excited, so that millions of people online at the same time will no longer be a dream. But at the same time all players are paying close attention to one point, can their computers bear it?

The player "haosad" just said-I hope that millions of people can be online, but if the "Second World" server can be loaded, but our players' computers can't run, that is undoubtedly the saddest thing.

The player "Rulong 1911" also commented-I hope that the "Second World" will not become a stand-alone game, and the computer configuration of mainstream players will never run, whether it is for the "Second World" , Or for our players, is a disaster.

......

In view of this, Qiu Xin, the Minister of the Fourth Game Development Department, Bruce Allen, the Minister of the Hardware Development Department of the Technical Research Department, and Cohen, the Minister of the Technical Research Department, led their respective working groups to come up with two plans after three days of research.

The first is to design a set of "screening" system, which automatically screens all player data outside the visible range of the player in the same map, and in large-scale battles, it can better screen all player data outside the player's attack range; second, It is to use "cloud computing", the supercomputer developed by the "Second World" replaces the player's computer to perform part of the image calculation, but this will inevitably cause the load of the supercomputer to increase, I am afraid that the load of the million players in the theory will be greatly decline.

However, these two points are now practicable methods. Who makes the computer hardware configuration no longer able to keep up with the demand for game software. In the end, the three people have always decided to give priority to using the "screen-shading" system. When the "screen-shading" system loses its effectiveness, a supercomputer will use "cloud computing" to take over the image calculations of some of the players' computers.

When everyone was struggling with the stable and smooth running of the loyalty of the swordsman's love for the country, Lin Feng rushed to the Shanghai Oriental Club (cba) to finalize Yao Ming's contract first. Although this is a bit against the NBA rules, this is China, not the NBA, and Stern can't control it. Of course, this is also a rogue. Lin Feng must finalize Yao Ming's contract in advance, otherwise Yao Ming will be severely beaten by the Shanghai East and the Basketball Association. A bamboo pole that will allow Yao Ming to have negative equity forever if he can't become a superstar.
