When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 429: Strange Controller Back Button

Zhuge Jun picked up the handle with some curiosity and looked at it carefully.

Many controllers now have back buttons, and the shapes of these back buttons are different. Some are more restrained, with just two small buttons, while others use paddles, which have a stronger presence.

This "Blood of Lies" co-branded handle is really amazing, its two small wings are not pressed, but flipped!
And this kind of lever has a certain travel.

In other words, Zhuge Jun can use his two middle fingers to move the two small wings. In the process of pulling them downward, the spring inside the handle will limit the movement speed of the two small wings, allowing it to change from the upper position to the lower position in about two seconds in a slow-then-fast manner.

There is a noticeable resistance when you first start to pull it, and you can't use brute force to make it move faster.

In addition, these two small wings will not return to their original positions automatically, and Zhuge Jun needs to use his middle finger to move them.

When you use your middle finger to flick the small wings from bottom to top, the movement speed of the wings will increase significantly and the force required will be greatly reduced, but it still takes about 1.5 seconds to return to the initial position at the top.

The operation itself is fairly ergonomic, and although it requires some adaptation and practice, it shouldn’t be too difficult.

The only question is...what is this back trigger for?

It seems totally unreasonable for it to be on the controller!
Although many manufacturers have launched controllers with additional back buttons, such as the Elite Controller, the impact of a few more buttons on players' gameplay is actually not that big.

Because the controller is different from the keyboard and mouse, most games currently only provide "controller button replacement" but do not provide "correspondence between additional controller buttons and specific functions in the game."

For example, suppose in a game, button A on the controller is "tap to roll, press and hold to run". When the game allows players to adjust the button positions, players can change button B or X to the function of "tap to roll, press and hold to run", and change the A button to the original function of the B button or X button.

That is to say, the functions corresponding to the two buttons are replaced.

However, players cannot set the A button to "tap to roll" and set the back button of the controller to "press and hold to run".

The back buttons of the controller can only remap existing buttons.

The main uses of this change are nothing more than two: one is to map the back key to a key that you are not used to or frequently used. For example, some people think that the operation of "pressing the joystick" is rather anti-human, so these two operations are mapped to the back key; the other is to press two keys that conflict with the fingering at the same time, so as to use mapping to complete special operations such as the C hand.

But in these two cases, a simple, pressable back key is sufficient. There is no need for such a strangely shaped back key with a long key travel.

Zhuge Jun can’t figure out what these two keys are used for for the time being. The main reason is that they don’t rebound automatically, and the key travel distance for pressing up and down is different, which is really strange.

"Mr. Gu, can the key travel of this back key be adjusted?" he asked curiously.

Gu Fan nodded: "Of course, you can adjust it freely in the official APP of the controller. But I suggest that you don't adjust it for the time being, because it has been adjusted according to the status of "Blood of Lies"."

Zhuge Jun probably understood a little bit, these two special back keys are probably related to some special functions in "Blood of Lies".

Against the Heaven's co-branded controllers are basically cooperated with Zhitong controllers, and this time is no exception.

When we made the micro steering wheel before, we cooperated with the "Explorer 4" controller. The Explorer series is a modular controller. The joystick, cross key and other buttons on the front can be customized freely, but there was no special design for the back button before.

This time, the collaboration is with the latest "Explorer 5" series controller. The biggest difference from the previous work is that its back button position also provides modular options.

There are three different back buttons that can be freely disassembled and assembled. One is a small and exquisite back button, one is a larger double back button that is more suitable for gripping, and the third is the trigger back button that is currently linked with "Blood of Lies". This thing seems to be nothing special, but the price is quite outrageous. The price of the handle plus the trigger back button is 549, which is already a veritable high-end product in the current handle market.

Even on shopping websites, a lot of this co-branded controller has been sold. Many players simply choose to buy it out of their trust in Against the Heavens and their curiosity about this new controller.

Zhuge Jun couldn't help but look forward to it.

There were less than ten minutes left before the game was officially released, and Zhuge Jun turned to study the latest camera and live broadcast functions of the experience store.

It can be seen that the official of Against the Heaven's Glory is still very considerate. This set of live broadcast equipment can basically guarantee the best live broadcast effect.

The quality of the camera is very good, and the anchor can also use the headphones next to it to pick up sound. In addition, all the mainstream live broadcast software on the market has been pre-installed on the device, and the operation is simple and convenient.

If the device at home does not support live streaming, you can actually go to an experience store to do live streaming.

Of course, although the experience store is spacious and noisy, and talking during the live broadcast will not affect others, it still takes a little courage to live broadcast in public.

Zhuge Jun has no idea of ​​live streaming for the time being. After all, live streaming will be controlled by the audience, and he does not have the corresponding eloquence. He just wants to enjoy the game.

“By the way, those big anchors should be starting their broadcasts soon.

"Oh, I really envy these anchors. First they had a great month-long yacht party, and then they seamlessly transitioned to Blood of Lies. Damn it, I'm so jealous that my dick hurts!"

Zhuge Jun opened the live broadcast platform on his mobile phone and found that familiar hosts such as Lecturer Ding, Li Wenhao, and Chen Tingquan had indeed returned from Coconut City and started live broadcasts.

A month ago, these anchors were invited to Coconut City to participate in an outdoor event, the content of which made netizens envious.

This group of hangers-on have about three or four hours of outdoor content live broadcast time every afternoon. The content of the live broadcast is relatively fixed. They either advertise the drinks of the organizer, or sunbathe on the beach, or go fishing on a yacht, or go to eat seafood dinner and chat...

What made the audience even more angry was that this group of people actually accepted business orders, and even got paid for eating, drinking and having fun!

So netizens angrily criticized, why didn’t you take me with you to win the party!

The audiences of hosts such as Lecturer Ding and Li Wenhao were particularly angry, because among the large number of hosts and UP hosts invited this time, some of them were rather lazy, and their performances were often inconsistent whether they were live broadcasting or updating videos, so their audiences had gotten used to it.

It’s different for hardworking anchors like Lecturer Ke Ding. He used to broadcast almost every day, and even if he took a leave, it was only for two or three days. But this time, he took a leave for a whole month!
Although he broadcasts three or four hours of outdoor programs every day to prove that he is still alive, it does not quench the thirst of the audience.

But it is obvious that the audience's anger is irrelevant. For these anchors, it is simply too great to eat, drink, have fun and get paid every day, and they simply cannot refuse.

Fortunately, a month passed quickly, and this inexplicable business activity finally ended. They all went back to their homes and prepared to start playing Against the Heaven's new game "Blood of Lies".

Zhuge Jun put away his phone and entered the game as soon as the ban was lifted.

At the same time, more than half of the players in the entire experience store came for the new game. The opening CG of "Blood of Lies" appeared on many screens at the same time, which was truly spectacular.

The screen went black, and Zhuge Jun entered this long-awaited mysterious world.
