Chapter 213 Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick


Chapter 213 Crouching Dragon and Phoenix

Wang Dawei temporarily removed the miniature steering wheel from the handle and replaced it with the joystick.

I have to say that this mini steering wheel feels pretty good, much better than he expected.

I thought it was just a toy, but I didn’t expect it could really improve the driving experience.

Especially when the vehicle passes through different road surfaces, the vibration feedback will also change, which can really effectively enhance the sense of substitution.

But Wang Dawei won't need it for the time being, because at this time he has become a glorious deliveryman.

In the game, the driving methods of bicycles, battery cars and motorcycles are obviously not suitable for using a steering wheel. At this time, using a handle will be more suitable.

Switching from the mini steering wheel to the joystick was a bit uncomfortable at first, but I soon got used to it.

This game has also done a good job in optimizing the controller, and the speed of the battery car is much slower than that of the taxi. Wang Dawei can keep holding the right trigger button, and he can still react at the top speed. .

“Let me see how to take orders...”

At this time, the game screen still has a navigation screen similar to that of a taxi driver, but it used to be a route map for picking up and delivering passengers, but now it has become a route map for picking up and delivering food.

“Ding! You have a new takeout order!”

Wang Dawei hurriedly rode a small battery car to the hotel at the target location.

Because it is a driving simulation game, there are not many internal structures of buildings in the game. Only a few areas such as the player's residence and garage can enter the interior.

Going to deliver food can be done directly downstairs. After riding a small battery car to the designated location, the system will randomly refresh a waiting time for food pickup. After arriving at the designated location, it will randomly refresh a food delivery time. Waiting time, after the user takes it away, an order is considered completed.

Wang Dawei was riding a small battery car and suddenly felt that his gaming experience had indeed improved significantly.

Although the flow of people on the non-motorized lanes is not small, and there are often other bicycles, scooters or pedestrians, it is not a big problem as long as you ride carefully.

But soon after Wang Dawei delivered his first order, he gradually realized that something was wrong.

The game time at this time is approaching noon, and the peak meal period has arrived!

Wang Dawei watched helplessly as five or six orders were forced into his navigation, and the time for the orders was counting down rapidly!

Many of these orders are not going smoothly. When you go to one of the orders, you will unknowingly get further and further away from the other orders, and you will always have to go back a lot.

What’s even more outrageous is that the waiting time between picking up and delivering food is completely random!

Once Wang Dawei waited at the door of a restaurant for five minutes until the flowers withered.

Know that this is in a game, not in reality.

In real life, it is normal for delivery people to wait for more than ten minutes. At most, they play on their mobile phones while waiting. But the game is different. The game itself is a highly immersive activity. Once you stop, the rhythm will be interrupted. , which has a huge destructive effect on the game experience.

What's more, seeing all the orders counting down rapidly, Wang Dawei was so anxious that even five minutes felt like a year!

“Ding! Your takeout order is about to time out!”

If the order times out, money will be deducted according to a certain proportion. The longer the timeout, the more money will be deducted.

Although after a certain period of time, the money deducted will no longer increase, Wang Dawei cannot let it go, because this situation will randomly trigger complaints, and once a complaint is made, the money will be deducted!

Only 20 yuan will be deducted for overtime, and if there is a complaint, the starting fee will be 200 yuan, and if the situation is slightly more serious, it will be 500 yuan. If it is particularly serious, it can even be deducted up to 1,000 yuan!

And unlike reality, the money deduction for complaints in the game is completely random. It is impossible to call the NPC to plead for him to cancel the complaint, and it is impossible to find the food delivery platform to defend rights.

Once you encounter it, you can only admit that you are unlucky and highlight a stimulus!

Unknowingly, Wang Dawei became more and more anxious.

At first, he honestly rode according to the traffic rules, but soon because the order was about to time out, and he saw many other people riding electric bicycles recklessly running red lights, Wang Dawei gradually began to Numb, I started running red lights.

After breaking in, I found out, hey, there doesn’t seem to be any punishment?

There were no police officers who suddenly came out and pinned him to the ground, or fined him or criticized him.

But after playing for a while, Wang Dawei began to fall into self-doubt.

Who am I?

Where am I?

What am I doing?

I actually worked as a food delivery person in the game...

At first, Wang Dawei delivered a few food orders and earned some income, which felt good. But soon, he suddenly realized that this was not the same as reality. Isn’t there any difference between delivery and takeout?

The only difference is that you can actually make money by delivering food in reality, but you can only earn game currency by delivering food in the game...

And at this moment, it got even worse. Something happened.

When Wang Dawei ran a red light as usual to deliver an order that was about to run out, a car sped past the intersection!

Although the car was braking hard and left two tire marks on the ground, it still hit Wang Dawei firmly and knocked him aside. But this time was different from the previous car accident. Wang Dawei noticed that the driver who got out of the car actually had a line of green characters on his head.

This means that he is actually a player!

At this time, Wang Dawei also heard the player's voice coming from his headphones.

“It’s broken, brothers, what should we do now?

"What? The Heimlich maneuver? Are you sure it's this? I've never heard of it, is there no problem?

"Okay, then I'll believe it, brothers, let me take a look.

"Hey, why did you pick him up? Is this really no problem?"

Wang Dawei was dumbfounded, and he hurriedly said: "Brother! Be Heimlich! You want me to die!

"Listen to me, don't touch me now, just go to your car to get a bandage and give me a simple bandage...

"Hello? Can you hear me!

"Hey, hey, hey! ”

Wang Dawei tried to communicate with the other party, but to no avail. It was obvious that although he had turned on the mic at this time, according to the game mechanism, since the game character was unconscious, he could only listen but not speak.

He could only watch in despair as the other party picked him up from behind and performed first aid using the Heimlich maneuver.

At this moment, Wang Dawei suddenly felt that the voice sounded familiar. , and then take a closer look at the name on the other person's head, it is "Lecturer Xiao Ding"

"Help! The big anchor is killing people!"

Wang Dawei was wailing, but Professor Ding in the game obviously couldn't hear it at all and was still giving first aid seriously.

“Hey, brothers, is this considered a success? Why is there no prompt in this game?”

The barrages in the live broadcast rooms on both sides were almost laughing like crazy.

“Good guy, you scored twice, right?”

"Brother David and Lecturer Ding are so incompetent. If you search for what the Heimlich maneuver is, you won't be fooled by the barrage so easily."

"I can only say The cultural level of the anchors is still worrying. Scholars like Brother David and illiterates like Professor Ding have all fallen behind!”

“It’s good. At least this game has made many people aware of Heimlich! What is the first aid method used for? It can be considered a great merit..."

Wang Dawei was speechless. He cut to Lecturer Ding’s live broadcast room and posted a paid barrage.

“Brother Ding, your first aid is going to kill me!”

Only then did Lecturer Ding notice that something was wrong, but the police had already arrived and pinned him down on the car with his hands behind his back.

"Ah? Is this brother also an anchor? I'm sorry, brother, I didn't mean it, I am fully responsible for this barrage!"

Lecturer Ding is very embarrassed, but there is nothing he can do about it. After the accident, the two of them had no contact with each other. There is no friend system in this game. The so-called online gameplay only allows everyone to drive in the same city, and there is no content of teaming up to complete dungeons.

At this time, the players began to come to their senses. This game was specially designed to be played online, and it seemed to be to disgust the players!

Take the previous car accident as an example, why did it happen?

Because Professor Ding did not observe carefully when driving through a traffic light intersection, and of course the more important reason was that Wang Dawei rode a battery scooter and ran through the red light.

But why did he run the red light? Because the takeout order is going to time out!

If you think about it carefully, in fact, there are basically some pitfalls in the existing professions in the game.

Delivery workers have to rush, otherwise their money will be deducted and they will be complained; taxi drivers have to rush, because there is passenger satisfaction; office workers have to rush, otherwise their wages will be deducted if they are late; long-distance travel Freight drivers still have to rush because delivery is also time-limited!

The only ones who seem relatively free are Internet celebrities.

But the problem is that Internet celebrity itself is a part-time profession, and it is best to have a full-time job.

Of course, players can also skip their job at all and simply drive in the city, but if they do so, the system will give a warning, and the key is that without the support of their job, if the anchor does not make money, Then there will be no income at all!

What’s more, if you want to be popular as an Internet celebrity anchor, you have to work hard!

How to survive in this game? Driving step by step is definitely not possible. Thinking about it, any way of organizing your life will probably cause a certain degree of traffic chaos.

In other words, the only reason why "Road Rage Simulator" has an online mode is to deliberately put players together and then use mechanisms to cause friction between them!
