Someone on the bullet screen quickly tried to smooth things over seeing the gunpowder.

“This is just a game.
Don’t bring too much reality into it.”

“How can I not? If this car is a fictitious car logo, it would be alright.
At most, it would mean that some sci-fi elements were added in the game, which would surpass the current technology in reality.
However, it is under Stamford.
Wouldn’t that give many people who don’t know the truth a misleading feeling?”

“The key is that this caused the inequality of the game.
Wouldn’t K1 have one each in the future?”

“That’s right.
Why should Stamford be better than other brands in the game? This advertising effect cannot be underestimated.”

“Can the workspace create many very rich initial accounts? Will there be log-in services in the future? I feel that this K1 update is a failure!”

Most people had similar feelings but felt uncomfortable.

That was because ‘Safe and Civilized Driving’ was a game that boasted authenticity.
However, this car seemed to have exceeded the current technology level.
It looked unreal!

Previously, everyone had understood that in reality, automatic support driving was at most following cars, parallel lines, and so on.
There were very few automatic driving cars that could luckily complete the intersection without protection and turn left.

However, not only did K1 easily complete several unprotected left turns, but it also dealt with complicated road sections that even human drivers found troublesome.
That made people feel that it was very ridiculous!

In that case, what was the purpose of updating such an unreal car in the game under Stamford?

It was hard not to guess randomly.
It was hard not to worry about the studio spending money.

“Aiya, everyone, stop arguing.
This automatic driving cannot get paid.”

“Everyone, don’t argue.
You’ll know once you try.”

Zhang Yan had been researching the specific mechanism of automatic driving since just now.
Now, she was finally researching the exit path.

She made three different movements.

The first was to leave the steering wheel completely with his hands and his feet not touching the brake or the accelerator at all.
He would leave completely.

The second was that his hands did not touch the steering wheel, but his palms were placed on his lap, ready to take over.

The third was to place both hands on the steering wheel but not compete with the automatic driving of the car.

It was only then that the audience noticed that this car did not completely care about the driver during the automatic driving process.

(If you have problems with this website, please continue reading your novel on our new website myNovelFull.Com THANKS!)

During the process of automatic driving, the car would send out reminders every once in a while and judge the driver’s state.

The content of the reminder was: This car was in automatic driving.
However, please note that under current law, only L2 automatic driving was supported.
The driver still had to constantly monitor the road conditions and state of the car and be prepared to take over at any time.

This hint would be shown every once in a while.

At the same time, the car would judge the driver’s state and make the corresponding test.

If the driver’s hands were on the steering wheel, no hint would be triggered.
The automatic driving would be carried out normally.

As for how to judge this? It was very simple.
As long as the driver placed his hands on the steering wheel and the automatic driver moved the steering wheel, there would naturally be a very small resistance.
This resistance would not affect the automatic driver, but it would let AEEIS know that the driver’s hand was on the steering wheel.

The simulator’s steering wheel was a direct steering wheel with feedback.
It was very sensitive to this.

If he could not tell, or if the driver’s hands were not on the steering wheel, the car would make a test request for the driver.

For example, in a safe road, the driver had to step on the accelerator slightly or move the steering wheel slightly and input a little strength.

The requirements would be different each time according to the different sections of the road.

The system would also give different feedback according to the time between the driver completing this operation.

If the driver quickly completed this operation, the system would determine that the driver was in a highly concentrated state and the automatic driving would be carried out normally.

If the driver was slower, the system would broadcast a reminder again to the driver to pay attention to the road situation and not rely on automatic driving.

If the driver reacted slowly or did not react at all, the system would choose a safe place to park and not drive.

Of course, during this process, the driver could obtain control of the car through human intervention and start the automatic driving again.

However, if the driver did not do anything, the car would stop by the side of the road.

If they did not move for a long time, the car would automatically send a signal to call the police.
A car would come and drag the car away.

In other words, this automatic driving was not like what many cloud players in the bullet screen comments had guessed.
It did not have any requirements for the driver and could not make money.

It was impossible to hang up the phone.
Once the system caught him, the automatic driving would stop.

If there were still customers in the car at that moment, then… he did not know how much money would be deducted from this order.
He would even deduct the existing deposits and savings, much less the car fees.

To ordinary players, this was obviously not worth it.

If one had to keep an eye on the road situation during the automatic driving period and respond to the system’s requirements, why don’t I drive myself?

Of course, even if he wanted to respond, automatic driving would save more time and effort.
The player could relax a little.
However, this advantage was obviously not enough to destroy the balance of the game.

Therefore, many cloud players felt that this thing would be a godly weapon to run online and arrange for cars.
This was obviously a misunderstanding caused by not understanding the specific mechanism.

Of course, there was another possibility: using cheat.

They could cheat the system of transmission signal and achieve the goal of hanging the phone.

However, this world dealt a strong blow to cheat.
Production, transmission, and use of cheat programs would be severely punished.
The official games platform had encryption of the game program, and the game data would be connected to the internet to constantly monitor abnormal data.

Spending so much effort to create a cheat just to use the automatic driving car to earn more money in the game… One could only say that the loss outweighed the gain and the brains were fried.

If one had the energy, why would he fight an ordinary standalone driving game to the death? They could instead harm FPS games.

Zhang Yan’s test results were that the best sitting posture during the automatic driving was the second type: placing her palms on her legs, ready to take over.

That was because it was more tiring to hold the steering wheel for a long time.
On the other hand, if her hands were completely off the steering wheel, she would not have enough time to react.
She would either be in danger or it might cause the automatic driving system to stop.

Obviously, the attitude of the game was very clear: automatic driving could indeed save the driver some effort, but he could not rely too much on it.
This was your own life.
You still had to pay attention to it.

The car could be said to be the most powerful killing weapon that ordinary people could obtain under the current legal framework.
Any slight mistake might cost a life.
He had to take it seriously.

After Zhang Yan verified the details of the automatic driving technology, her doubts about the fairness of K1 disappeared, leaving only doubts about fairness.

Obviously, the automatic driving technology in the game had not become a money gap.
However, why did Stamford obtain an automatic driving technology that was completely ahead of time when the other car brands did not?

At the end of the day, they had taken Stamford’s money!

Zhang Yan was helpless about this.
She could deeply verify the automatic driving mechanism of the car.
However, she really could not guess why Shang Yang Games wanted to release such an automatic driving model for Stamford.

She could only wait for public opinion to ferment and see how Tengda would respond.

The controversy about the new version of ‘Safe and Civilized Driving’ on the internet was brewing.

Many comments online were blaming the game ‘Safe and Civilized Driving’ for losing its original beliefs and losing the fairness and authenticity that it should have.
It was equivalent to slapping themselves in the face.

This criticism increased significantly during Friday.

The reason was not difficult to guess.
It was definitely the outcome of a group of interest!

In fact, to gamers, the update of ‘Safe and Civilized Driving’ was quite conscientious.
Even though some gamers felt that K1’s automatic driving model was very inappropriate and should muddle the car logo and not put it under Stamford, this emotion was not that intense.
Everyone was still willing to wait for Shang Yang Games to give a reasonable explanation.

However, the relevant parties did not think so.

‘Safe and Civilized Driving’ had offended many car manufacturers.
Stamford Cars had many enemies both domestically and overseas.

Many car models had been smashed in Safe and Civilized Driving, causing the entire internet to mock them and cause a certain public sentiment crisis.
How could these car merchants let it go?

Yes, IIAS was also doing a collision test.
They had also smashed their cars into pieces and even uploaded the video and collision results online.

However, IIAS’s influence on ordinary consumers was not that big.
Many people only went back to IIAS’s website to take a look before buying a car.
Apart from some popular key car models, this collision outcome would not cause much of a stir online.

Secondly, IIAS had a strong backer and had always been fair.
Even if these car merchants wanted to fight back, they could not find a breakthrough.

If IIAS made a seemingly unfair review one day, there would definitely be a large-scale attack on it online.
This was almost inevitable.

However, your ‘Safe and Civilized Driving’ is a lousy game.
What virtues and capabilities do you have to take it up like IIAS?

The key was that the negative public opinion generated by ‘Safe and Civilized Driving’ was greater than IIAS because the influence of this game was too wide!

Now, all the driving schools in the country were promoting the safe and civilized driving simulator.
There were too many active players in this game.
If the manufacturer’s car was weak and had poor safety here, it would directly affect the car sales in reality.

What’s more, previously, ‘Safe and Civilized Driving’ was supposed to work with some car merchants, but these car merchants rejected it.

Subsequently, these car merchants took the initiative to seek cooperation.
Safe and Civilized Driving actually asked for too much, asking them to pay!

That was obviously intolerable.

Good lord, you defamed me.
I’ll authorize the car to you, but I have to give you money in the end? I can’t interfere with the performance of this car in the game?

I’m a car company.
Wouldn’t I become a beggar?

The key was that they had not come into contact with Boss Pei, not Tengda Corporation, but only Shang Yang Games, a subordinate of Tengda Corporation.

Many car merchants could not tolerate being messed up by a game merchant.

Now, they had finally seized an excellent opportunity!
