Game Design: Is that okay, CaiGou?

Chapter 347 Cyber ​​Veteran: What do you mean by asking me to undergo cyber military training? (Subscribe)

Steam platform Chinese region——

Another press conference was held.

It is another case of heavy bleeding and a reduction in the share ratio.

It is another game platform that forms alliances within the country.

It took a lot of effort to attract the attention, public opinion, and traffic.

Who would have thought that Taipingdao would directly attract all the attention, public opinion, and traffic by simply releasing a promotional video of the tactical team.

All players' attention is focused on the promotional video of Tactical Squad. Various analyses and opinions of players on the promotional video can be seen everywhere on the Internet. Who cares what fancy operations the Steam platform is doing?

From the players' point of view, no matter how exaggerated other game platforms are, they are not as exciting as the civilian commercial version of the holistic game cabin and the virtual military training software system.

With the players' eager anticipation, the seven-day countdown came to an end. The Taipingdao virtual game platform was finally launched at 1 pm, named -

【Destiny Game Platform】

Players can log in to the Tianming game platform with one click using the Taipingdao Community APP account, and synchronize the progress of all games released by Taipingdao under the account.

A large number of players, with clear goals, flocked to the activity area of ​​the Tianming game platform to receive tactical teams.

Douyu live broadcast platform, game area.

In the live broadcast room, Liu Peijia was very active in logging into her account on time and was among the first to log into the Tianming game platform.

[Game name: Tactical Squad]

[Developer: Taipingdao Company]

[Genre: Hardcore·Shooting·Combat·Simulation·Real·Team]

[Price: Log in to the Destiny game platform and get it for free]

[Message from the developer: Can it be done, you bastard! 】

"Hey, tactical team..." Liu Peijia said with a smile:

"Although we brothers don't lack this little money, it has to be said that free games are the best."

These words really touched the hearts of the players.

It's free, who doesn't like it?

What's more, it's a high-quality game of Taipingdao for free!
"Mine is a game library, not a trash can! But Tactical Squad is not trash, hehe!"

“I can choose not to play, but I can’t live without it! A declaration of purchase from an old player who has never played shooting games!”

"Free ones are the best. In one word - just do it!"

"Oh, no, where can I get it in my world?"

After seeing this comment, Liu Peijia searched the activity area while the tactical team was downloading.

Finally, I found the trace of Minecraft in the activity section on the homepage——

【my world--】

[Current number of new members: 0/3]

【Countdown to receive: 72:00】

[Note: Old players can invite three new players to log in and register on the Destiny game platform, and then they can automatically get the new game Minecraft after the countdown ends]

"Oh... this is what love is all about?" Liu Peijia explained to the fans:

"Not only do I need to attract three new players to my world, but I also need to wait seventy-two hours before I can claim it, which is three days."

"Lao Zei probably did this because he didn't want the popularity of his two games to compete with each other. This way, there would be a time difference, and the game data would look much better."

As soon as this statement was made, it was unanimously recognized by the netizens, who praised him as the worm in General Tiangong's stomach.

Liu Peijia laughed loudly and pointed at his nose and said, "That's right, don't you see who I am?"

"Okay, I won't say any more. The tactical team has been downloaded. Let's go straight into the game. I want to show you how powerful I, a cyber veteran, am."

Liu Peijia debugged the live broadcast module of the Fenghuo-3 holistic gaming cabin, opened the cabin door, and lay down in the gaming cabin.

As the inert gas was released, he slowly closed his eyes and officially entered the virtual space of the tactical team. Liu Peijia quickly completed the preliminary steps such as naming, and a series of options popped up in front of him -

【Server Browser】【Custom Browser】

【Training】【Settings】【Tutorial】

"Tutorial for beginners?" Liu Peijia curiously clicked on the details page.

[First time playing Tactical Squad? Pre-deployment training! ]

【start】

[Note: The novice tutorial is a must-pass stage. When entering this stage, except for certain specific stages, the player's overall sense will be forcibly adjusted and maintained at 100%]

How hardcore is Taipingdao's hardcore game?

It is a well-known fact in the gaming circle!

Tutorials for beginners are difficult to come by, and this has never been a new story.

There is a saying circulating in the player circle: Just enjoy the beginner tutorial!
Because Taipingdao has never lacked hardcore real games that don’t even have novice tutorials!
But when Liu Peijia saw the tactical team's novice tutorial, he was only worried about one thing: what the hell is this forced adjustment of the overall sense to 100%?

Isn't that pure cyber military training?
I am a veteran of hundreds of cyber battles.

Are you treating me like a recruit?
Old thief, is this appropriate?

Liu Peijia complained in his heart, but he was a little bit unconvinced. With the encouragement of a group of netizens, such as "good job, be more alert, and don't lose face", he finally entered the novice tutorial.

On a vast training ground, stands a huge tent, like a solid fortress.

The tent's exterior is made of military-grade camouflage fabric, which is not only durable but also effectively blends into the surrounding natural environment, providing soldiers with a layer of natural camouflage.

When you walk into the tent, a faint scent of pine wood hits your nose, making you feel fresh and pleasant.

Ten bunk beds are neatly arranged on both sides, each bed is equipped with a sturdy bed frame and a soft mattress, ensuring that the soldiers can get enough rest.

The quilts on the bed were neatly folded, like pieces of tofu, with every corner sharp and angular, demonstrating the rigor and discipline of the soldiers.

In the open space between the beds, there are several simple folding tables and chairs for the soldiers to use for daily meals and rest.

The table was neatly laid out with kettles, cups and cutlery, and every item was in perfect order.

Several bright chandeliers are hung from the top of the tent, providing ample light for the entire space.

Liu Peijia opened his eyes and found himself lying on the bed. He sat up, looked around and found that there was no one in the tent.

Hey……

Oh my god! What the hell are you doing here, you little bastard? Is this still China?

Several questions immediately popped up in Liu Peijia's mind:

"Who am I? Where am I? What do I want to do?"

Where is the chief of my novice village?

Where are my Novice Village quests?

Nothing?
Liu Peijia muttered as he got up from the bed and prepared to leave the tent.

But when Liu Peijia walked to the door of the tent, he found an invisible wall of air in front of him, and the player could not leave at all.

[New recruit Liu Peijia, please finish your housework and leave the tent]

eggplant:"……"

Netizen: “…” No?

What's going on?
Whose game is good? How to play it?
I'm a veteran cyber soldier, and you want me to stack tofu cubes?

"Oh my god, I have to say this... Tactical Squad is different from other games." Liu Peijia complained:
"As expected of a virtual military training software system, even the tutorial for novices is extraordinary?"

In the live broadcast room, viewers laughed when they saw this scene.

"Stacking tofu cubes? Wow, this is actually the first step in teaching a novice?"

"Cyber ​​veteran? While sorting out your housework, tremble!"

"You old thief, you don't treat us as outsiders, do you? This tutorial for beginners is pure beastliness!"

Liu Peijia returned to the bed and scratched his chin awkwardly, "Oh no, did the tofu ruin my military dream?"

"I don't even know how to fold tofu cubes. I don't even fold my quilt when I get up... What's going on? Am I stuck at the first level? I'm such a big anchor, how can I not save face?"

Fortunately, there is always a way out. Even for holistic games and civilian commercial versions of virtual military training software systems, the actual situation of most players must be taken into consideration.

So every player can find a military camp manual on the desk next to the bed, which contains detailed instructions on how to stack tofu blocks.

Moreover, the quilt in the game can be easily folded into tofu blocks according to the system's judgment as long as the player follows the steps in the teaching syllabus.

This not only reduces the difficulty of stacking tofu blocks for players, but also allows players to experience the real life of a recruit firsthand.

Liu Peijia held the military camp manual, turned to the tofu folding section, and examined it carefully.

[Step 1: Spread the quilt flat with both hands and fold it into three folds. After the quilt is flat, fold it into three parallel folds and press it firmly. ]

[This step is the key to shaping the quilt. If it is not pressed firmly, there will be wrinkles on the edges of the folded quilt, and the whole quilt will look collapsed and uneven. ]

[Step 2: Fold the card strips with both hands]

[Use your hands to make a stripe mark, and then press down and press back and forth until the mark is obvious. Lift the two sides with your hands to form a convex shape in the middle. Fold the quilt along the mark and trim it. Make sure each side is at a right angle.]

[Step 3: Fold your hands in half and knead them into tofu blocks]

【Fold the folded parts on both sides in half at the other end of the quilt, and a complete quilt is formed. Finally, the entire quilt should be pinched to make it horizontal and vertical, neat and beautiful.】

That's it?

Liu Peijia said disdainfully: "Just three steps, with the help of the system, this is not difficult!"

But the actual situation is——

Eyes: Got it!

Brain: Got it!

Hands: What the hell?

Even though he had mastered the theory and had the assistance of the system, Liu Peijia still spent half an hour busying himself on folding tofu cubes, but to no avail.

And he is not an isolated case. Shooting games are an enduring genre with an exploding player base, and cyber veterans are everywhere.

This group of cyber veterans originally wanted to join the tactical team as commanders and lead the team to kill all enemies, but they all failed and failed at the stage of stacking tofu blocks.

It can be said——

Reborn in the military camp, Tofu Block's three steps shattered my dream of being a commander!
"Oh my god, who can tell whether I'm playing Tactical Squad or a tofu stacking simulator?"

"Beast, the old thief is definitely a cyber beast!"

"Wow, I've been stacking tofu blocks for an hour and I'm about to break into pieces!"

All the complaints from players are summarized into one sentence:

You old thief, behave yourself!

Another half an hour later, Liu Peijia carefully completed the last step, and the quilt in front of him was successfully folded into a tofu block. After the system determined that it was successful, the air wall at the door suddenly disappeared.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a wry smile: "If this game requires payment, then most players will not be able to get a refund before they even leave the Novice Village."

The netizens covered their mouths and laughed.

"Let me be frank." Liu Peijia left the tent and complained as he walked:

"If the system didn't just determine that the steps were correct and the quilt would automatically correct itself to the best state, I might never be able to leave the tent in my life."

"You can imagine how good the real soldiers are at folding tofu and keeping their house in order in real life."

[Pre-deployment Infantry Training: Regional Training Center, Location Confidential]

When leaving the tent and coming to the training ground, the player will receive a system prompt.

【compass--】

[When you are fully prepared, move to the 330 direction, the "Fault Training" in the "Northwest"]

Following the system prompts, Liu Peijia turned left, jogged all the way through the military camp area, came to the training area, and finally stopped in front of a row of fence obstacles.

There are gaps between the rows of fence obstacles, which are arranged and combined to form a curved multi-section [S]-shaped route.

[Obstacle Course: Pass the obstacle course as fast as possible]

"Haha, what a joke!"

Liu Peijia stretched out his legs and moved quickly through the obstacles. Soon he passed all the obstacles and reached the finish line.

The road ahead was blocked by rows of log walls. Several walls blocked the road ahead, and each wall was higher than the last.

[Climbing: Climb over obstacles at the fastest speed to pass the climbing course]

The first wall was only half a person’s height, and Liu Peijia climbed over it easily.

The second wall was already two meters high, and Liu Peijia needed to run up to barely get over it.

The third wall is three meters high, with an NPC in training clothes squatting underneath. Players need to step on the NPC's hands and jump hard to climb over the wall.

"Huh...huh...huh..."

Liu Peijia climbed over the wall, bent over and panted: "No, who researched this? The combination of collective awareness and military training, it's definitely cyber military training!"

After crossing the wall, there is a large pool in front of you. Above the pool, a narrow passage is built with logs. Players need to step on the logs to reach the end.

In order to avoid falling into the water, Liu Peijia almost moved step by step to reach the finish line.

At the next level, several low tunnels appeared in front of Liu Peijia, with sandbags piled on both sides and barbed wire between the tunnels.

In this level, the player needs to lie down and crawl in the tunnel to the end.

Liu Peijia lay down and moved with difficulty in the tunnel.

After moving less than three or four meters, the sound of machine gun fire suddenly came from all around the tunnel, and the splashing bullet shells fell in front of us, which immediately gave us the maximum sense of reality.

"Fuck, is this such a big deal?"

It was the first time that Liu Peijia felt the impact of the sand and dust splashed by bullets on his face during the game.

This feeling is so exciting.

Liu Peijia crawled forward in the tunnel under the hail of bullets. When he reached the end, there was a loud bang and a grenade exploded.

Amid the smoke and dust, grenade fragments flew across the sky, scratching Liu Peijia's arm.

However, because this is a fixed process of systematic teaching, there is no sense of wholeness in this process.

But the sight of the grenade exploding so clearly in front of him still left Liu Peiqia with lingering fears.

"Shit, my arm is bleeding! Is the novice tutorial such a big deal?"
