Rebirth of the big era of online games

Chapter 391 Who said this game is not violent?

Under the design and arrangement of Fang Jie in this world, the stand-alone survival mode or adventure mode of "Minecraft" has a total of 114 achievements.

The so-called "achievement" is actually the main task, but after translating it into English, Fang Jie felt that the word "achievement" was more appropriate than "task".

Chinese talents pay attention to tasks, because that represents a clear goal. Since "Minecraft" claims to be an open and free world, replacing the "task system" with the "achievement system" will make it easier for foreign players to accept, at least literally.

Of course, in fact, the main task in the game is indeed just a kind of achievement. The game just tells the players that they will get some item rewards for completing these achievements. Even if the players do not complete these achievements, it will not affect the normal game process.

In fact, it's not normal. If you don't complete these achievements that are equivalent to the novice guide tasks step by step, it's the second best if you don't have game goals. The main reason is that you can't even master the basic game operations and survival skills, and then you will die in various ways.

This is the case when foreigners are playing "Minecraft". Even if the "task" is changed to "achievement", many people still don't follow the routine and don't even look at the "achievement goal". Don't talk about all kinds of death, but still enjoy it and refuse to give up.

When foreign players and Chinese players play games, their game mentality and game concept are generally different.

When Chinese players encounter a game they don’t understand, they either look for strategies to learn and fight again, or they just abandon the pit when they are depressed. However, when foreign players encounter such a situation, it is easier to arouse their interest and challenge, thinking that it is difficult to get started. It is a part of the game and should be experienced seriously.

Perhaps, this is the difference between high-level players and novice players.

The material life of foreigners is too superior. They have a lot of game time to squander. They have played all kinds of games. It is natural to disdain the difference, and only a very small number of Chinese players have reached this level of game.

Of course, this does not mean that Chinese players are inferior to others, but as far as the game "Minecraft" is concerned, foreign players are more likely to adapt and are more interested than Chinese players. Once they enter the pit, even if the game is difficult. There are very few abandoned pits.

Frenchman Slein Rodelin is such a high-level player.

In reality, he is a young architect who opened his own architectural design firm.

Those who do architectural design usually don’t open for three years, and open for three years. Usually he is very free, but when he is busy, he is very busy. Once he receives a job, he often stays all night for one or two months. Draw drawings in the studio.

And when he is not alive, he is often idle for 2, 3 months or even half a year, so he uses games to pass the boring time, so that almost all game CDs on the market, he has a set at home, which is absolutely game enthusiasts.

However, since the steam game platform was launched 2 years ago and found that there are a large number of games on it, he directly searched for and downloaded games on the platform.

At present, the number of game products purchased in his game library is as many as 200, and the games he has tried are countless. The games that can still be kept in his game library are all classics in his opinion. Maybe I will go nostalgic for a while.

The game "My World" is one of them.

Half a month ago, he accidentally saw a push advertisement for this game on the platform. It doesn’t matter if it’s free or not. Will experience it for the first time.

Of course, after reading the game introduction, he was also very interested in its own sandbox mode.

After entering the game, he has not performed any game activities, but just saw the game scene, and he fell in love with the game deeply.

Such a cube world is simply a world made up of Lego!

And he, Slein, liked to play Lego since he was a child. It is precisely because of this that he chose the major of architectural design when he grew up. After work, he has two biggest hobbies in his spare time: computer games and Lego games.

Lego games can often bring him more architectural design inspiration, and can also simulate his own design scheme more vividly.

However, the Lego game still has its limitations. The number of building blocks is limited. It may not be a big problem to construct an architectural design plan. Just buy a few more sets and combine them. Probably did.

For a long time, he had a kind of expectation in his heart, that is, how interesting it would be to put the real Lego game into the computer?

Now Minecraft has successfully achieved this, which is simply a great surprise!

The French have a romantic gene in their bones, so he plays "Minecraft" differently from others.

Others may prefer the survival mode to challenge themselves, but after he mastered the basic game operations in the survival mode, he exited the game and re-selected the endless mode to build his own dream world in the game world.

Just from the sound of it, I think this is a very romantic thing.

Even if it's not for romance, but for work, he still thinks that the game "Minecraft" will accompany him for the rest of his life. In the future, he will directly use the game to come up with a design plan and show Party A a screenshot. Maybe it will scare Party A into the urine, right?
Hahahahaha... Slein felt happy just thinking about it.

Play is work, work is play—it doesn't get any better than that!
Therefore, Slein's game motivation is more powerful, and he has been playing in the liver almost day and night for the past half month.

During this period, he had another whim and decided to try to build the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, the Louvre, and Notre Dame Cathedral in the game, and then posted it on the official website forum to pretend!
While playing Minecraft like Slein, there are many foreign players who have deviated from the game route and have different ideas and ways of playing. These players generally have one thing in common: Lego fanatics.

Some players decide to build some of the wonders of the world in the game, such as the pyramids with the Sphinx, the Taj Mahal, the Great Wall, etc., and some only build tourist attractions in their hometowns, such as because they live in seaside ports , decided to build the port city where he was located in the game in proportion.

In addition, there are people who build scenes they have seen in movies, TV shows, games, or just compare a photo of the castle in "Vampire", and start playing in "My World". I like to play the game of stacking blocks, and I have a lot of fun playing it.

Later, some players noticed this: why not let your children play this kind of building block game?

The building block game is originally a kind of educational game, which is helpful for young children's intellectual development and hands-on ability. Unlike other games, "Minecraft" does not have any bloody and violent elements in this game.

If there is a game that is suitable for your own children, of course you should share it. The whole family can play it together, and by the way, you can also accompany your children. It is the best of both worlds!
The only problem is that 3D games are difficult to operate, and children may not be able to get started smoothly.

But that's not really a problem.

Don't compare it with the situation in China. Children in China don't have a normal game environment at all, and their game operation skills are either zero or still in the initial stage.

After all, Chinese parents regard games as a scourge. In the eyes of parents, even if their children squat on the ground and play with ants, they are better than playing games...

There is nothing wrong with this. After all, playing ants is not addictive, but playing games is addictive. Once addicted, you will never be able to quit in this lifetime, so the parents of the country are right...

All in all, foreign parents are relatively open-minded, and even they themselves are game fans, so their children have been influenced by it since childhood, and they have cultivated some computer skills. Uncomplicated games are not a difficult thing to do.

After the children started playing this game, the children from other neighbors or the students in the class heard about it and naturally joined in. Then the parents of these children had to download the game, and finally found that the game was very good for themselves. I like to play, so I was substituted into the pit.

Of course, then again, this part of the players are just players who have gone wrong in the game. Although it will play a vital role in making "Minecraft" famous all over the world in the future, at the beginning of the game's launch, it is not mainstream players.

The real mainstream players, after experiencing the stand-alone survival mode, mastered the basic operation of the game and rich game experience, finally entered the network mode to play the game, and played the game better than the game builder like Slein.

Because strictly speaking, the online mode is the real survival gameplay of this game, and it is also the main fun of it.

The biggest difference between the "Minecraft" in this life and the previous life after Fang Jie planned the magic reform is the online mode of the game.

He doesn't want to wait for those art-creation players who have taken the wrong path of the game to slowly build up the word-of-mouth of the game. He has neither the time nor the patience to wait. It is his current pursuit to make the boiling game internationally famous as soon as possible.

And to achieve this goal, you can't take the usual path and come up with strange tricks!
This trick is the online survival mode.

The so-called online survival mode is neither the simple PK of players in traditional online games, nor the simple survival of the leftovers in the game of eating chicken, and of course it is not simply hello, me, everyone, and everyone.

To be precise, Fang Jie's online survival mode is a combination of the above three, but it is different.

In this mode, although the game map in a game server is randomly generated and has a large area, it has a boundary instead of the infinite boundary in the stand-alone mode. Although the resource blocks on the ground can be collected, the foundation blocks that generate the ground are Can't dig.

In a limited range of game maps, the maximum number of players who are limited to enter is 500.

After opening the server, these [-] players entered a randomly generated wasteland game map, and then collected various resources in the game map to start pioneering and developing.

Since the game map is very large, the resources on the ground will be refreshed every once in a while, so there is no need to worry that players will mine all the resources.

During the game, players build their own homes and build various tools through continuous collection of resources, processing, production, manufacturing and other game activities.

Not only production tools, but also various means of transportation, and...weapons.

Weapons are not only cold weapons, but also all kinds of firearms, grenades, and explosive kits.

So you can imagine: when a group of unarmed barbarians scattered and landed on a large island, gathered through hard work, and then manually DIYed their own homes and made various tools and weapons, what will they do next?
Wouldn't you make yourself a chair and sit at home in the game drinking tea and chatting?
That of course is robbery, murder and arson!

Well, who said this game doesn't have gore and violence?

Bullshit!
This is also the reason why Fang Jie didn't put the game in the country, because it would definitely not pass the trial!

The game is nothing more than the game style looks cute, which conceals the fact that it is essentially a violent game, and it is very appetizing to foreigners.

To say that "Minecraft" in the online mode is a violent game may be an understatement. To be precise, the game settings and the behavior of the players in the game have exposed the human beings under the crisis of survival. Authentic responses in a chaotic free world.

Let’s not mention other things, just say one thing: After the player dies in the game, other players can “collect” the corpse, and they can collect two kinds of ingredients, meat and skin...

In the online survival mode, the player character has satiety and drinking water. As time goes by, he will feel hungry and thirsty. If the value drops to zero, he will die of starvation or thirst.

Although the game provides some animal and plant fruit resources, in an emergency, it is not ruled out that players will do something to break through the bottom line of human beings, let alone this is just a game... right?
Of course, before foreigners do this kind of thing, there is actually no shortage of two bites to eat. They usually get angry and drive out this kind of bone-sucking thing in order to vent their anger.

It can also be seen from this that the game world in the online survival mode of "My Game" is actually a rather sinister and cruel world.

However, foreign players have a very good evaluation of this mode of this game.

Because they think it is real, they finally have the taste of their ancestors colonizing wasteland.

When a person lives on a desert island, it is not the most terrible thing, because the only thing to consider is food and clothing.

But if a group of people who don't know each other live on a deserted island, the same kind is the most terrifying species, and food and clothing are only the most basic requirements. In order to continue to survive, fighting with the same kind is the core content of survival.

In fact, at the beginning of the game, in the online survival mode, the game was not so sinister.

After entering the game map, the first players who experienced this mode usually choose to hold a group to keep warm. Some of them or their relatives and friends have blackmail, or like-minded temporary groups, and will form a small team to build a home together.

But gradually, because of language and cultural differences, it evolved into a group of players from the same country.

Players will form a group based on the international relationship in reality. For example, European players will build a house or a fort with several people, and then the homes of several teams will gather together to form a fortress group, and then surround the wall to jointly resist foreign enemies. .

The same is true for American players, and Asian players... Anyway, Japanese players and Korean players will definitely not unite. If you count Chinese players, it will be a three-legged confrontation, and they will not fight each other. We can't get together at all.

As for Indian players, I’m sorry, but India’s domestic infrastructure is pretty lax, and few people play online games at all, and those intellectuals, such as those Indian software engineers, have joined the United States and consider themselves Americans, so they belong to the Americas group of players.

All in all, after the game world has evolved to this point, contradictions arise. In reality, the contradictions or ideological differences between different countries will be extended to the game.

As a result, players from various countries are struggling to build and develop their own homes, while engaging in armed conflicts.

The so-called armed conflict is not as simple as killing people.

Fang Jie's two core settings for this mode are: 1. Players can be resurrected infinitely after death, but they will drop all their items including equipment; 2. The player's home can be demolished.

The first setting is to encourage killing and overselling.

The equipment on the player, such as a semi-automatic rifle, even though it looks ridiculous like a toy gun, has amazing lethality. It took a lot of resources and materials, and climbed a lot of blueprint technology trees to manufacture it.

Once the loss is picked up by someone, it is definitely considered a relatively large loss, or to the winning side, it is equivalent to grabbing back a large amount of the other party's labor fruits.

In fact, let alone such high-tech products in the game, even if the player who mines and collects in the wild is killed, the raw materials on his body may have been collected after an afternoon of labor. Once robbed, not to mention heavy losses , at least it will make people furious, and they can't wait to find the murderer immediately!
As for the second setting, it is not just the individual who is unlucky, but the entire "logging tired" team.

Building a castle or a small turret will also consume a lot of resources, and it is the result of the joint labor of the entire "lumberjack" team.

Although it is not so easy to demolish a house, it is not the kind that can be dug out with bare hands, but C4 explosives must be produced to blow up the wall, but since player teams can collect countless resources to build together, naturally there are player teams that can also collect Enough gunpowder, enough explosives are produced to dismantle it.

House demolition is not just for revenge, but a profitable PK game.

Because of the game settings, the warehouse or the box storing resources can be opened by others, even if the lock is installed, it will be useless. They will directly dismantle it violently, and then they can take away all the inventory materials and treasured game props inside.

Therefore, once you break into other people's home buildings, all the resources in other people's homes will belong to you!
In the game, the best way to get rich is not to work hard, but to violently break into other people's homes and rob them!

Although the risk is great and it also attracts hatred, you can get rich overnight!
That's the core gameplay of this online survival mode!

500 players enter the game server, and the maximum number of players in a team is 10. Therefore, in a game map, there will be at least 50 player teams. Even if some of these teams are united, forming a dozen or so larger players is No problem.

And among these player forces, the ultimate goal of the struggle is to tear down each other's homes and take away all the resources of the other party!
Once the homeland is destroyed and the resources are taken away, even if the player can be revived infinitely, it has lost the meaning of continuing the game, because no matter how developed, it is impossible to surpass the hostile player team.

Therefore, the player forces whose homes have been demolished are often discouraged and directly beaten to the end!

This is what makes the winner very cool and fulfilling, because the ending affects reality!

For foreigners in the past, no matter how awesome or powerful they are, no matter how they bully or retaliate against other players in the game, except for "EVE", it may have a little persuasion effect, which is difficult for other games to achieve this purpose.

But Minecraft can!
Once the house is demolished, all the previous hard work and all the fruits of labor in the game will be wiped out in an instant... No, it’s not just wiped out, they have not disappeared, but have entered the pockets of the enemy!

Just ask: hurt or not, angry or angry!
Spending another ten days and a half months starting from nothing, who can bear it?

What's more, what if someone is eyeing you, and you haven't started to retaliate, what should you do if you are demolished by the enemy?
Anyway, it's not that no one has tried "stealth and courage", but it is basically difficult to get revenge.

Besides, why do people demolish their own homes, don't they have any compulsions in their hearts?
Once upon a time, I also demolished many other players' homes. If you come out to mess around, you will have to pay it back sooner or later. Let's admit it!
But then again, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and the game is not completely without opportunities and hopes for players to take revenge.

Fang Jie is not stupid, how could it be possible for the losing player to abandon the pit forever?

We must continue to let them repay each other for their grievances!

Therefore, there is another important setting in the online survival mode: the game server, which will be rolled back every month!
The so-called rollback is actually the map and resources in the game server. All data is cleared, and all player data is also cleared. Then the game map is refreshed randomly, and poor players are randomly placed again.

This is like a reincarnation every month, giving everyone a chance to fight again.

Wasn't your home demolished by someone last month?

It's okay, everyone is standing on the same starting line again this month, if you don't accept it, you can re-develop and get the field back!
How did they insult and bully you last time, if you have the ability to bully you this time, you can also bully you back!

As long as you win, you can pick skins, cramps, whip corpses, whatever you want!
So, abandon the pit?

That is impossible!

The players worked hard for more than half a month last month. They just wanted to farm and become Buddhist players. In the end, their homes were demolished, and they were destitute overnight. They were so angry that they temporarily abandoned the pit and slept at home for several days. I didn't sleep well, and even hid in the toilet and cried a lot...

This bad breath is really hard to swallow, so many players have already vowed in their hearts that they will regroup this month and FUCK back hard!

Well, once the players hit the real fire, the money in their pockets will be easy to earn...
