Chapter 238: Players feel surprises beyond expectations
Judging from the pilot trailer itself, it is definitely the world's top image quality among the 3A-level game masterpieces in the gaming circle in 2017.
It is also a science fiction game, which is why many domestic gamers subconsciously think that this is a new work from a major foreign game manufacturer.
There are very few sci-fi genres in China, and most of them are martial arts and immortality-related online games.
Suddenly, such a domestic game appeared, and it quickly spread in the mainland gaming circle. Players spread the word by word of mouth, and the level of discussion gradually increased.
This 1 minute and 42 second pilot trailer shows limited content. First of all, it can be determined that this is a game with a future science fiction story background, and the gameplay should be an FPS shooting game.
Players are now staring at the trailer for various analyses.
It is still not possible to judge whether this game is fun or not, but judging from the quality of the pilot trailer, it is indeed not inferior to the 3A-level productions of the top manufacturers in the industry.
What dazzles players the most in the trailer is undoubtedly the majestic and vast space war.
It has a sense of déjà vu from a Hollywood super sci-fi blockbuster. From the scenes shown in the trailer, players can generally judge that this game has a grand story background.
It is worth mentioning that in the field of science fiction, whether it is movies or games, they are basically exclusive to OMG people.
There is even a stereotype that only Omei people can do this category, and no one else can do it.
There is also a saying that only countries with strong national power and advanced science and technology can produce science fiction movies, science fiction games and other cultural products.
So only Europeans save the world and fight aliens in science fiction movies and games.
Domestic production companies, whether they are film companies or game companies, are more willing to start with themes such as martial arts, ancient costumes, and ancient myths.
Because the risks are relatively low, from a business perspective, this is not a big problem.
As for the genre of science fiction, its domestic audience is not large, or even niche.
But as long as the game itself is fun enough, any subject matter is actually secondary. If the game itself is not fun, no subject matter can save it.
…
In the afternoon, the fog mirror company once again released a 21-minute live demonstration video.
This time is different, the actual machine demonstration video shows a lot of information.
It has only been two hours since its release, and it quickly sparked a conversation in the gaming circle.
· In a university dormitory, several college students are gathering together to watch this live demonstration video. They have all played the battle royale game "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds".
One of them couldn't help but said: "It turns out that "Machine War" is a sci-fi version of the battle royale genre!"
Another roommate said: "No, this game is different from "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds". It feels like a fusion of battle royale, League of Legends and Overwatch. "It's weird? "
The person next to me said excitedly: "No, no, no, it can be stitched like this. It should be said that it is a perfect fusion of the best of everyone. Mader, I have been saying that Overwatch should quickly release a battle royale mode, but it has not been released. Now "Machine War" can be experienced first. I want to play this game!"
A college student sitting in front of the computer said: "Judging from this actual machine demonstration, it is indeed very attractive and the gameplay is very novel."
At this moment, the actual machine demonstration video entered the next stage.
· Several college students saw the video player hiding in a corner, then put down a special beacon, and then started calling for support.
After a while, the video player took the initiative to shift his perspective to the sky, and several college students discovered an airborne capsule falling from the sky.
Everyone was shocked when they saw three teammates who had already died walking out of the airborne capsule.
"If I go, can I still be resurrected?"
6666!"
“I thought it was like PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds where you only have one life. After you die, you can only watch the game silently with your hands off the keyboard, but there is still a chance of resurrection.”
to reduce the frustration and negative feedback caused by the game. "
"But in this way, won't the advantages established by other teams be smoothed out in the next stage? Will playing a game be too slow?"
After they continued to watch, they soon discovered that the pace of this game is actually quite fast.
And there is no punishment mechanism for resurrected teammates. For example, when you die and then resurrect, the original equipment and attributes are gone, which is equivalent to a new character with blank attributes.
But you can also quickly raise the attributes of the resurrected character on the whiteboard, provided you have resources.
This requires the team to allocate resources as a whole. If the surviving teammates have very few resources in their backpacks, then the resurrected teammates will naturally be much weaker.
Humbling explained from the plot of the game, it is normal for teammates who are newly supported by airborne troops to be weak without the blessing of alien technology.
"This game is okay, and the actual demonstration effect definitely exceeded expectations."
"Indeed, the gameplay is quite rich."
"It's really good that a domestic game can achieve this level. It's a bit of an unexpected surprise!"
"I don't know when it will be launched. I will download it and play it when the time comes."
Several college students watched this live demonstration, and they all gave high praise and were looking forward to it.
"This is the picture quality, it feels like a computer killer. Most of our game laptops cannot be carried."
"I hope Fog Mirror Studio can do a better job in optimizing the game."
"I guess I can only play in an Internet cafe, and even if I go to an Internet cafe, I have to go to a high-end area to play."
In the game circle right now, a large number of players are discussing this live demonstration video released by Fog Mirror Game Company in the forum community.
Even many colleagues in the industry were surprised. They thought it was the same type as "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds". After watching the actual demonstration, they discovered that this game is actually a fusion of three currently popular games.
It combines elements of battle royale, League of Legends, and Overwatch.
But what attracts the most attention among peers is that "Machine War" integrates these three popular games very well, and it is rare to learn from the strengths of each other.
As the debut work of Fog Mirror Studio, it is really amazing that it can reach such a level.
The same is true for players. They are generally pleasantly surprised by this new domestic game. They did not expect that Fog Mirror Studio’s first game would be so sophisticated, and the gameplay is also very attractive.
