Tickets were skipped several times. Items are all refunded, Matrix Technology intervenes, until today it is finally going on sale!

After twelve years of waiting, the road to the birth of "Star Citizen" has been full of twists and turns, and the road has been bumpy. After twelve years of hard work, it is pointing to become the next "World of Warcraft" phenomenon-level game.

After a while, Roberts held the microphone again and announced a series of news that sc (Star Citizen) players around the world are most looking forward to. He said: "The release date of "Star Citizen" is synchronized with the 'virtual world' globally, and the game runs on only 'Virtual world' platform. To play "Star Citizen", you only need to buy the game once, and there is no need to pay for subsequent use. Some in-game items may require a small fee, but this is not the only way to get it. We sell All items can be obtained through normal game channels, and players have more choices.”

"The final price of Star Citizen is...$60!"

The last sentence surprised the players present. Jack looked sideways at his friend and said, "Are you sure you heard it right? $60?"

"It's indeed $60!" Good friend Matthews nodded in affirmation.

"The production cost is nearly 1.8 billion US dollars, but the 3s-level super production is only sold at the price of a 3a-level big production. Doesn't this mean that it needs to sell 50 million copies to recover the cost? Is the carrot (Roberts) crazy?" Jack During this trip to China, I felt in a trance how all the companies in the world have become so noble and don’t regard money as money.

Matthews said with a playful smile: "Hey, who knows? Maybe Carrot Head is ambitious and wants to create an unprecedented world record, 12 years of polishing, 12 years of cost recovery, and another 12 years of profit. A total of thirty-six years!"

"You're wrong, buddy!" Jack laughed suddenly: "Obviously, the root cause is the thighs that the radish head hugged, but we are also happy to see that I will definitely start with the game "Star Citizen" Yes, it’s only 60 U.S. dollars, and it’s a good price!”

As the Roberts company ended the developer symposium, the 8,000 sets of perception helmets on the site were officially opened for free experience as early as ten minutes ago. At the entrance of the hall, the first round of tourists who received the free experience had already lined up here in advance waiting

As the first round of 8,000 tourists entered the venue, the second round began to line up, staring at the venue naked one by one.

The small group of Jack is going to the fifth round, and a specific time is marked. When they are free, they will naturally go to other places for a stroll. They soon came to the Ubisoft exhibition area. Ubisoft's representative work " The Assassin's Creed series has attracted much attention at this exhibition. Because the game setting of "Assassin's Creed" is that the protagonist uses virtual games to experience a series of assassinations performed by assassins in the Middle Ages. Now the real virtual world is born, which makes this game quite topical.

Matthews walked towards one of Ubisoft's peripheral booths with bright eyes. Many Ubisoft fans were watching here. They saw their favorite peripherals and paid for them without hesitation. Tourists who bought peripheral products were definitely true love. As a fan, Matthews is also a huge fan of "Assassin's Creed". He looked at the most eye-catching items on the booth and said, "How much is this figure?"

As soon as this remark came out, the tourists around him were surprised. What Matthews was staring at was the figure of a well-known character in the "Assassin's Creed" series. It's drool-worthy, but the expensive price of more than 7,000 RMB makes them discouraged, even if they are true fans.

The sister paper in the booth immediately lit up when she heard it. Seeing that Matthews is a European and American face, she immediately replied in fluent English: "7332 RMB, which is 1128 US dollars!"

"Dude, are you planning to transport this thing from China to the United States? Are you afraid of breaking it halfway?" Jack suddenly reminded his good friend and said.

Seeing Matthews' hesitation, the girl in the booth became anxious, but she smiled and said, "It's okay sir, we can air transport it to the United States through the logistics company, the whole process is guaranteed, and the postage is half price!"

Matthews looked at Jack, who shrugged speechlessly. Matthews looked at the sales girl and said, "I can't pay in cash, can paypal pay?"

"sure!"

The transaction was completed quickly, and Matthews happily took a photo with the latest character figure of "Assassin's Creed", and also attracted the girl paper, "This figure has a special meaning, it helped me complete the 500,000 US dollars Buy, I swear I have absolutely no intention of showing off, uh... Looks like it's time to expand my personal exhibition space "Assassin's Creed" series, "Witcher" series, "Tomb Raider" series... Haha, please call I'm really a figurine madman, who else in the whole world is crazier than me!"

"Of course there is!"

Just when Matthews was intoxicated, a voice suddenly appeared beside him, and he said subconsciously: "Who? Maybe we can communicate, is it you? Friend! How many figures have you collected?" Matthews looked at The person who spoke was a Chinese, and he took out the smart device in his hand to show Matthews, and at the same time said with a smile: "Of course it's not me, but it's a hand-made figure, no one in the world can beat him! "

When Jack and the others heard this, they raised their heads and looked at the screen of the device curiously. After a while, Jack burst into laughter, "Matthews, you are nothing in front of him. Are you shocked? Hahaha~~~!"

"This...it's not fair!" Matthews spread his hands with a defeated expression on his face. The Chinese showed him a very interesting picture, which was the terracotta warriors and horses of Qin Shihuang's mausoleum, and at the same time, he also photoshopped a picture of the first emperor For the classic picture, the Chinese person also specially added a line of English subtitles: I heard that someone wants to do it with me?

This picture is designed to cure all kinds of fiends!

After the episode, Jack and the others walked around the Ubisoft exhibition area, then went to Comex and Square, basically visited the five major game companies, and as time went by, it was finally the fifth round. It is now approaching afternoon.

Finally, Matthews and others stepped into the experience area, looking at the thousands of perception helmets on the table, feeling inexplicably excited. Everyone came to the area No. 7900 according to the small paper tickets in their hands. The staff in this area began to say: "Everyone choose a comfortable posture and do it first. The sensing device is powered on, just like wearing a helmet. Wear them on the on the head..."
