For example, the operation of exchanging money for game currency does not exist at all, and transactions between players are also completely prohibited.
This approach certainly has pros and cons. One of the most significant results is that anyone who wants to make money and buy a car in the game must make money in the game on their own, in addition to directly purchasing other people's accounts. Speed up this process by recharging or purchasing game coins from other players.
For some, it may mean fairness; for others, it may be rigid, rigid, and impersonal.
But no matter what, the official seems to have no intention of changing this rule, so players can only accept it.
Since there is no in-app purchase service, it means that it will most likely follow the traditional game model: relying on DLC to maintain subsequent income.
After all, the main game is a one-time purchase, and the income will only become less and less in the future. If there is no charge for developing DLC, how can we support the cost of developing DLC?
"Hmm...it's also possible that this update contains less content, so Tenda is more generous and gives it for free."
"Let me see what updates there are..."
"Huh? There's a lot of updates, isn't it?"
Zhang Yan glanced at the update log and found that there were several quite important updates.
First of all, 7 different new cars have been updated in the game, of which three are new cars from the Chinese manufacturer Steffel. Some high-speed sections, provincial road sections and event maps have also been updated.
Secondly, the game has officially launched a VR version, which can be experienced after connecting Doubt VR glasses. However, the current version is not perfect and is still being further optimized.
The game has also been updated to support eye trackers, which is good news for civilian players.
The so-called eye tracker tracks the movement of the player's eyes. The data of the player's eye movement can further affect the game screen, so that where the player looks, the screen in the game will turn.
The reason why it is good news for civilian players is that it is a better alternative to three screens.
If you want to set up three 2K screens, there may be economic or space problems for many people, but the price of the eye tracker is still much cheaper than three 2K screens.
Driving games especially require better vision. For example, when driving a large truck, if you only have one screen, it will be difficult to see the rearview mirror and the dashboard, and the driving experience will be worse.
In other words, the game currently has three different experience modes: the best effect is still the three-screen or ultra-wideband fish screen, because the display effect is the best and the field of view is wider; the second is VR, although the display effect will be worse. It may look like a mosaic, and some people may feel dizzy, but the sense of immersion is really strong. Finally, there is the eye tracker. If there is only one screen, at least you don’t need to leave the steering wheel with your hands and use the mouse to adjust the field of view and move. You can see the rearview mirror just above your head.
Finally, some Spring Festival activities have been updated.
For example, there are some special paintings on the outside of the car, there are also some mascot pendants related to the Spring Festival inside the car, there are also some decorations related to the Spring Festival on the roads and on the buildings in the city, etc.
It seems that these are regular updates that have been scheduled for a long time.
Tenda Games has done this very well and is very good at continuing its popularity.
After a new game is launched, in most cases, an update will be arranged in a short period of time, which can make players aware of it.
In this way, players will have a feeling of being valued, which can effectively enhance player stickiness.
Like some manufacturers, after a new game is released, there is no news for two or three months. In the fourth month, a patch is finally released. As a result, players see that they are all fixing bugs, so they put the game away and have no mood to play it.

"I can try the VR version another day, but the driving experience may not be greatly improved. After all, the current VR glasses are still a bit lacking in display technology. I can only hope that Doubt VR glasses will be released soon."
"So this update is mainly about the car."
Zhang Yan flipped through it and found that what is more concerning about this update is that it has updated three new models of Steffel, two of which are existing models in real life, and there is also a K1, which looks pretty good, but before
Never seen it on the internet.
Steffel is a relatively well-known brand in China and has a good reputation. Since "Safe and Civilized Driving" has updated its cars this time, it naturally means that the two parties have reached a strategic cooperation.
"There must be someone doing a crash test on Steffel's car, right? I wonder if the title of 'road tank' can be continued in the game." Zhang Yan couldn't help but joked.
"Road tank" is a meme, originating from many photos of the scene after a collision between a Stauffer car and other cars. After colliding with cars of various brands, Stauffer's car performed well, but the appearance of the other car was seriously deformed.
Steve's car was only slightly dented.
Of course, we can’t just say that the safety of Stauffer’s cars surpasses all its counterparts, but the results of Stauffer’s cars in various crash tests are indeed pretty good.
As a result, Zhang Yan glanced at the barrage and found that the audience's focus seemed to be on this new car model K1.
"Fuck, anchor, hurry up and buy this K1, it's outrageous! It's like an official plug-in!"
"I'm envious that the anchor still has so much savings, so he can directly buy a current car. I just bought a new car for a cheap price and can't return it. I won't talk about it anymore, I'm going to move bricks!"
"With this car, you can automatically hang up and earn money. I have a feeling that this game may become the studio's world in the future..."
"I feel like this is a bit too much. "Safe and Civilized Driving" is obviously a game that emphasizes authenticity, but in the end, for the sake of endorsement and profit, we created such an unreal car?"
Zhang Yan was a little confused.
What are they talking about?
With some curiosity, she opened the details page of the K1 car and found that its price was quite high, reaching 450,000. However, after various parameters, it clearly read: "Under current laws and regulations, it reaches the L2 level.
Autonomous driving”!
Autonomous driving is divided into five levels. Currently, many companies at home and abroad are developing autonomous driving technology, and initial results have been achieved.
Level 1 autonomous driving is actually a very simple driving assistance, such as helping the driver to brake suddenly when a car is detected to be about to crash; Level 2 autonomous driving can assist with steering, acceleration, lane changes and other operations, but it still requires the driver to
Responsible for most safety functions, environmental monitoring, and must be ready to take control of the vehicle at all times.
Level 3 autonomous driving is more powerful. The car itself controls all monitoring of the environment. This process can be a purely visual solution through the camera, or it can be jointly detected by the camera and lidar. Generally speaking, when the vehicle speed is low,
No need for manual override on highways at 37 mph.
Level 4 autonomous driving is a high degree of automation. The vehicle will consciously change lanes, turn, confirm traffic lights, consciously use turn signals correctly, etc., and can complete long-distance complex road conditions independently without driver intervention; while Level 5 autonomous driving
Driving does not require any driver and can complete driving tasks under any harsh conditions. It is safer than a human driver.
For now, Level 5 autonomous driving is still the highest goal of this technology, and Level 4 is also very uncertain. As for Level 3 autonomous driving, some companies claim to have achieved it, but you can guess when you see the description of Level 3 autonomous driving.
Many claims that they are L3 autonomous driving are full of water and ambiguity, and are suspected of bragging.
Therefore, the current domestic laws only support L2 level autonomous driving, which means that no matter what the circumstances, the driver must always observe the road and put his hands on the steering wheel to ensure that he can take over the vehicle immediately if a problem occurs.
If you take your hands off the steering wheel, it's a violation.
The K1 model does not say what level of autonomous driving it is, but only states that it has reached L2 level of autonomous driving under current laws. It can be seen that this is a relatively conservative statement.
The specific size of this car is not specified in the game.
Maybe you are afraid that people will misunderstand that you are bragging?
But no matter what, judging from the reactions on the barrage, this is definitely not an ordinary car. It seems that the production team gave it some very excessive parameters in the game, even to the extent of "arousing public outrage."
Zhang Yan took a look at her balance in the game and immediately bought it boldly.
If you have savings, you can do whatever you want!
However, this car, which sells for 450,000 yuan, is indeed not cheap. It is tens of thousands more expensive than the mass-produced cars of first-tier brands.
Zhang Yan was almost drained of all her savings by this car. She would no longer be able to race on the track and could only continue to work hard to make money.
Although it is faster to make money by working with large trucks and long-distance buses, after all, I just bought a new car, so I still want to give it a try. Moreover, Zhang Yan has not used online ride-hailing for a long time, and she still misses it a little.
