Chapter 281 Game in Mars (4)
Choi Tae-woong also diligently searched for gameplay videos uploaded by other users.
Some users fought fleet battles against monsters in space, while others played on planets filled with boiling lava.
What I remember most uniquely was that it was a planet made entirely of ocean.
There were also players playing on a planet with no air layer whatsoever, and the outermost part of the planet was covered in ice tens of kilometers thick.
“This looks just like Jupiter’s moon Europa. An ice planet. How cool. How romantic.”
Choi Tae-woong felt envious and left a comment on the game video.
-Wow, it would be really cool if there was a fleet battle. I’m jealous. It’s the romance I’ve been dreaming of.
What the heck is this fleet battle?
N Palm Idiots, there is no room for players to fight each other
Looking at the guy talking, it looks like he hasn’t even tried installing Palm Bus yet
What kind of person in Korea hasn’t installed a game released by Suyeongja for two days?
Nooo anti-Ha Su-young, you should starve to death.
ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Fleet battle, fleet defense? Even if users join forces to defend against monsters, it won’t be enough, so what about fleet defense?
“What is this?”
Choi Tae-woong was so dumbfounded that he started looking for other videos and strategy guides.
Most of the posts that were visible were about finding colleagues to join forces with.
-If you are caught on the starting point planet Mershken, please contact me immediately. ID HOXXY*****31
-Looking for people who have started the Somme Asteroid Belt. There are currently 761 people gathered. It’s hard to do it alone, so we absolutely must stick together.
-As soon as I start, I’m on a ship and I have to find my way out to the deck. What should I do?
If you ask Freedom, he’ll probably give you the names of most construction sites.
No, I think the game will become too easy and not fun, so I try to get information from people as much as possible.
Sir, that’s not a ship, it’s a submarine.
No, it’s a submarine? ㄱㅅ But what kind of submarine has such a spacious interior? It seems bigger than an aircraft carrier?
ㄴㄴThe smallest known starting submarine is about 12km long and 5km wide, so I think you can assume it’s at least that big.
Nmchdㅋㅋㅋㅋ What kind of submarine is this big?
Palmbus provided an internal portal where users could upload their own gameplay footage.
Since it was simple and clean enough to be completed with just one word from recording to editing and uploading, most users uploaded to the Palm Bus Portal.
Videos on Kugle’s UCC portal are sure to be uploaded to the Palmverse portal, but it was not uncommon for videos uploaded to Palmverse to not be on Kugle.
That’s why Palmverse users mainly shared videos and information and communicated on the Palmverse portal rather than on Kugle.
-Guys, how many characters should I create?
-One character is enough. You don’t need more than that. Save that money and invest it in equipment instead.
“Equipment? What equipment? Oh, shit. What the heck is all this? This is fucking awesome. I want a charged particle cannon too.”
-I failed in the Golden Eagle phase and the front line was completely pushed back. Please help me.
-To make the Golden Hawk battle easier, you need to install electronic warfare equipment on your battleship. I recommend ‘Yoo Ji-woong’s Chaff’. This will paralyze the Golden Hawk’s vision, allowing you to safely take it down with long-range artillery fire.
-That’s right. The Golden Eagle doesn’t know where my battleship is, so it just gets hit and falls. Make sure to equip ‘Yoo Ji-woong’s Chaff’.
ㄴㄱㅅㄱㅅㅠㅠㅠ I’ll try again with Yu Ji-woong’s chaff equipped.
The more I looked for other users’ game videos, the more bewildered Choi Tae-woong became.
“What? Freedom, are we playing the same game as each other?”
“Of course.”
“Is it true that I can meet other users since it’s a single server?”
“of course.”
“But why does it feel like we’re playing different games?”
“Hahaha, the Palmbus world is that vast. At the current level, Choi Tae-woong cannot meet other users.”
“Hey, you’re saying PK is possible here? So if those users come at me with a battleship, I should just fight them with a shovel and die?”
“Don’t worry, the game wasn’t designed with such poor balance.”
-I made another avatar character, what is it?
Hahaha I wasted money. The avatar character is just a symbolic representation of me, so I only need one.
I made another one because I felt bad about hiring a worker, but what the f*ck is this
It’s better to just hire workers whenever you need them and fire them when you’re done. It’s a loss to maintain avatar characters because they have to eat, sleep, and so on. They don’t do as much work as workers.
I just wasted money, f*ck
Palm Bus achieved a record-breaking 500 million concurrent users on its opening day.
The biggest advantage of Palm Bus was that there were no platform restrictions.
Anyone, including Windmill PC users, Raffle computer users, console users, and mobile users, could access the game by simply installing the app, regardless of the device type.
Although there were players who installed it to obtain the Martian potatoes that Ha Su-young had promised to 100 people, there were an overwhelming number of players who enjoyed the game itself.
-Isn’t this game really worth the money if it only costs 5 dollars a month?
-I played for an hour and quit for a year. I finally found the game of my life.
-I love how all the NPCs seem alive. I feel like I’m a hero who has appeared in a different world, not a game.
-I like science better than magic ㅠㅠ Why is the starting point a fantasy world;;;
-No matter how I look at it, it seems like I fell into an ancient clan society;;;;
Wow, ancient clan society? I’m so jealous ㅠㅠ
Isn’t it easy to farm there?
It’s not that easy lol I’m barely surviving by hunting and gathering. I even tried planting something once, but for some reason it just dried up and died lol Today, 10 of my tribesmen starved to death due to a food shortage.
Some people are space battleships, some are hunting dragons in a fantasy world… Why is the world view so messed up? How are you going to balance it out later?
I’m starting out as a king in a fantasy world, and when I order my NPC subjects to grow rice, they tell me that it’s a godly crop that’s only mentioned in legends ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Same goes for wheat and potatoes lol I can’t even look at those
I finally found a turnip, but it’s not the turnip I know. It looks like some kind of mandragora. This is a staple food for herbivorous monsters, and humans and livestock that eat it will die instantly.
-What about farming? I should just throw everything away and enjoy monster defense while developing this barren planet. Haha.
-I had high expectations because it was a farming game, but I have no idea where or how to start farming.
Choi Tae-woong was puzzled.
“What? Am I the only one farming?”
No matter how much I searched, I couldn’t find any users who were farming.
But I didn’t feel proud or like bragging.
It’s a small garden, only about 10 meters square, and all they have are shabby farming tools like a shovel, a hoe, and a pickaxe.
I couldn’t bring myself to talk about it in front of people who were leading fleets of space battleships dozens of kilometers long and conducting transcendent raids against space monsters pouring from dimensional rifts.
“Should I just hit him?”
I thought about that for a moment, but quickly gave up.
“I can’t do that as a person who has received the grace of the enemy. Well, it’s fun to enjoy the scenery, so I’ll enjoy it as if I were living in the countryside.”
Besides, the game had no concept of logging out.
The avatar character was simply a symbol representing yourself, and the main basis of the game was the farm.
Even if you log out of the game, your avatar and hired workers will continue to manage the farm, and time will continue to pass within it.
You can log in with your phone from time to time to check the game progress, make various choices, or give commands.
“Master, the goggle-type display device for VR mode has arrived. It’s a gift.”
“A free gift?”
“Yes, let’s try entering the Palm Bus with this.”
Choi Tae-woong, wearing VR goggles, went straight into the farm bus, and only then was he able to see his farm clearly for the first time.
“wow…….”
Although they are said to be 8K resolution VR goggles, the resolution is much lower than reality.
But the low resolution didn’t seem to be a problem at all, everything was so realistic that it felt real.
The yellow, ripe grains swayed in the wind, showing various movements as if they were taken directly from a real rice paddy, rather than being just a few copy-pasted grain graphics.
“If you just increase the resolution a bit more, it will be indistinguishable from the real scenery. If you link it to the Cheongdam Scope, it will be a total disaster.”
“We are actually offering that feature as a paid service at Cheongdam Scope. You only need to pay $100,000 per month.”
“Wow. 100,000 dollars a month? Who on earth would pay such a fee… Oh, right. Cheongdam Scope is worth over 150 billion, right?”
For those who have purchased the Cheongdam Scope, the monthly fee of $100,000 will be virtually non-existent.
Choi Tae-woong continued to enjoy Palmbus through VR goggles, PC, and mobile devices.
When I was stressed, I put on VR goggles, logged into a game, and looked at the natural scenery. Nothing could be more relaxing.
Astronauts who set off on a Mars exploration also played Palmverse every day to communicate with the world, and thanks to this, the number of Palmverse users increased by the day.
Choi Tae-woong occasionally checked on the situations of other gamers, but he couldn’t find any gamers who were farming like him.
Most of them had cool jobs like being a space fleet commander, a fantasy world monarch, or a giant robot pilot who defends the galaxy against space monsters.
Even gamers who started out in ancient tribal society were absolute chiefs of tribes with at least 100,000 members.
“I’m the only one who’s having fun playing the universe game. I’m a little jealous. If I quit and start again, can I change my starting point like those people?”
“Of course. However, there is a 24-hour delay for re-registration. This is to prevent people from blindly trying to get lucky with the initial random luck. It seems to reduce interest in the game.”
“No matter what, I think it’ll be more exciting than it is now.”
“I don’t recommend it. Anyway, isn’t it unique? Just try it out a little longer. After all, if you save up money later, you too, Choi Tae-woong, can buy a space battleship.”
“Even if we had a space battleship, it wouldn’t be of much use here.”
There was something called ‘Palm Suchi’ in Palm Bus.
It was a type of experience that accumulated every time you grew and sold agricultural products.
Palm figures are accumulated in the same amount as HA, the currency unit of Palm Bus.
If you sell 10 million HA of agricultural products, your sales figure will also increase by 10 million.
Even if HA was spent on purchasing farm equipment, seeds, or labor costs, the farm figures remained the same.
Choi Tae-woong did not consider this figure important.
-ㅠㅠㅠ I finally defeated all the space monsters and the cracks have closed. Hurray, hurray.
Okay okay
Now I can finally develop my planets a bit. I haven’t been able to do anything properly because I’ve been busy beating up monsters.
Choi Tae-woong occasionally watched other players’ plays and felt envious, but he stopped leaving comments.
Then one day, suddenly a new system message appeared.
“What is this?”
“Congratulations. You’ve finally obtained access to Prime Farm. Let’s open the Prime Farm store right away.”
The Prime Farm store could be opened immediately using the system function, regardless of location or time.
When I opened Prime Farm, countless items for sale appeared.
Most of them were marked as ? and could not be confirmed, but there were hundreds of items for which the item and price could be confirmed.
“What is this? Tuna? Red sea bream? Black rockfish? Flounder? Manchurian croaker? Rock bream? What do you use these for?”
“Using items allows you to have real creatures delivered to your real address and eat them. Or you can sell items to other users.”
