Chapter 82 It gets more exciting as it goes on!
Zhou Yizhou was startled by Lu Ming's photo.
Afraid that Lu Ming was trying to trick him,
"Um...Boss, calm down for a moment. We've only just started the trial. Do you want to go back and explore the plot?"
The current trial version you are playing mainly focuses on the battlefields of World War I, and we have a lot of exciting content to come."
Lu Ming raised his eyebrows: "Oh, tell me about it."
"Uh... you're mainly playing the World War I section now, with the theme of trenches and poison gas."
Zhou Yizhou tried hard to organize his words.
"That is, trench warfare, hand-to-hand combat, and... well, poison gas warfare."
"oh."
Lu Ming looked at him meaningfully.
"What does this poison gas warfare mean?"
"You might be charging and suddenly see a gas can thrown at you, and then..."
Zhou Yizhou paused.
"If you don't have time to put on your gas mask, it's basically... well, another way to die."
"What about the World War II part?" he continued.
Zhou Yizhou's eyes lit up and he quickly continued:
“The main gameplay of World War II revolves around blitzkrieg and landing, emphasizing large-scale tactical combat.
You can experience the rapid advances of the Blitzkrieg, or take part in the Normandy landings and charge the beachhead..."
Lu Ming: "Go on."
"Then there's the Cold War section, which is currently at the stage of development of The Bourne Supremacy."
As he spoke, Zhou Yizhou regained some confidence.
"This part focuses on espionage, infiltration, psychological warfare, and more. Compared to the previous two stages, the gameplay emphasizes intelligence gathering and tactical planning rather than pure battlefield combat."
Lu Ming thought for a while.
Espionage, psychological warfare, intelligence gathering—isn't this a puzzle game?
Players come here for the exciting shooting games.
It seems like your show is getting more and more exciting as it goes on! It's the finale.
“So, let me summarize.”
Lu Ming touched his chin.
"The World War I part was about eating dirt in the trenches and being gassed or bayoneted.
The World War II part allowed me to be a target on the Normandy beach and enjoy the baptism of machine guns.
The Cold War part allowed me to be a spy and experience backstabbing from all sides."
"Well... in theory."
Zhou Yizhou smiled awkwardly.
Very good, very painful, I have touched the essence of the soul game!
The soul series game is about high difficulty and great suffering.
"But Mr. Lu, although the game is difficult, it also offers a great degree of freedom! You can fully unleash your tactical acumen and choose the survival method that best suits you!"
Lu Ming looked at him thoughtfully and nodded slowly.
What Zhou Yizhou said, he had just experienced.
Whether you use a knife or a gun, the result is similar.
"You just said that the gameplay of these parts is basically the same."
"Yes! It's all similar settings, just with a different battlefield background."
Zhou Yizhou made a solemn promise.
Lu Ming nodded.
If they are all similar, then he doesn't need to try out the subsequent plots, after all, he is a little dizzy with 3D.
If there was another round, he estimated that he still wouldn't be able to last more than three minutes!
Zhou Yizhou was a little anxious. It seemed that President Lu was not very excited about the subsequent content!
If he had known earlier, he would have optimized this trial version.
In fact, they even designed an elaborate military rank system!
As the player performs better on the battlefield, he can be promoted from an ordinary soldier to a higher rank.
Even eventually commanding the entire campaign!
However, since this is a trial version, the military rank system is difficult to expand, so it is not posted here at all.
However, after thinking about it, Zhou Yizhou felt that even if he added it in, it would be almost the same.
Judging from Mr. Lu’s performance just now, it seems that he is not suitable for promotion.
Lu Ming sat on the chair, squinting his eyes slightly.
There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was thinking, or as if he had already got the answer he wanted.
He raised his head, a meaningful glint in his eyes, and slowly said,
"Actually... I think this game is pretty good."
Zhou Yizhou's pupils shrank slightly and his breathing paused.
The boss approved
"ah"
"Yeah, very good." Lu Ming nodded.
"It's difficult enough, the experience is profound, and the emotional ups and downs it brings to the player are quite... intense."
Zhou Yizhou's heartbeat quickened.
Mr. Lu is not one to praise games lightly; he is notoriously harsh.
No matter which project I looked at before, I could always find a lot of problems, but this time I actually said it was very good.
What this means is that this game really has unique value!
It means that your development direction is correct!
Zhou Yizhou couldn't help but hold his breath and stared at Lu Ming, afraid of missing any details.
"I just experienced trench warfare. It was really realistic, with a variety of ways to die and a very oppressive feeling."
Lu Ming paused, as if he was savoring the moment.
Then he nodded slowly, "Your design direction is very interesting."
Zhou Yizhou's eyes lit up.
"Mr. Lu, you mean..."
"When players charge, there's basically no way to survive."
Lu Ming said lightly,
"There are machine guns in front and supervision teams behind."
“…”
Zhou Yizhou swallowed.
“It is indeed a bit difficult.”
"Didn't you just say that there was the Normandy Landing in World War II?"
"yes!"
Zhou Yizhou nodded quickly
"The focus of this level is to recreate the brutality of an epic battle. Players will engage in intense firefights with the enemy on the beach. We've implemented ultra-high-precision ballistic simulations, and also..."
“Stop, stop, stop.”
Lu Ming interrupted him. According to this operation, the beach would be covered by firepower, and no matter how the player operated, he would most likely be shot into a sieve.
"Okay, as long as you consider the difficulty!"
Zhou Yizhou's heart was pounding and his face was full of excitement.
Mr. Lu approved again!
"Mr. Lu, do you think there is anything else that can be improved?"
Zhou Yizhou couldn't help but ask, fearing that he had missed some key suggestions.
Lu Ming smiled slightly, looked at him meaningfully, and said slowly:
"I have a question."
Zhou Yizhou nodded quickly: "You go ahead!"
"This time rewind mechanism...how many times can it go back?"
Zhou Yizhou was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head and thought for a while before answering:
"Yes, we have set a certain number of backtracking times to prevent players from infinitely resurrecting and making the level too difficult to pass."
"How many times have you backtracked?"
"Initially it was five times, but then we adjusted it to ten considering the difficulty of the game."
Lu Ming raised his eyebrows and looked at him with a half-smile.
"That's it"
"Uh... Mr. Lu, this is actually a lot!"
Zhou Yizhou explained,
"Generally, the death penalties in Souls-like games are very severe, but we've been quite lenient. Ten rewinds are more than enough for players to figure out their strategies!"
"What if he died ten times?"
"Then we can only start over from the plot point..."
Zhou Yizhou said cautiously,
"This ensures the game remains challenging while also preventing players from falling into meaningless loops."
Lu Ming leaned back in his chair, tapped the table lightly, and said thoughtfully,
“This setting is unreasonable.”
Zhou Yizhou's heart skipped a beat, fearing that Lu Ming was going to overturn their core mechanism, and he hurriedly asked
“What’s unreasonable?”
"Since the core gameplay involves rewinding time, each time a player restarts the game, the battlefield situation will change, allowing the NPCs to remember the player's actions..."
Lu Ming said slowly,
"Then why limit the number of backtracking?"
“…”
