Chapter 664 [Picture]
Cheng Lei and Jing Chao were passionately killing Witch.
At the same time,
other players were also playing "Left 4 Dead", a new game released by Linmu Studio that was not in accordance with the routine.
For example, Li Yu.
But he didn't have a friend like Jing Chao to accompany him.
He formed a wild group.
Although he could complete the campaign alone,
he always felt that since the game had a cooperative mode and supported online matching and team formation, it would be a loss if he didn't go through it with other players.
So after hesitating for 30 seconds, he decided to go through it with other players he didn't know.
At the beginning of the game,
Li Yu fired the first shot, and like Cheng Lei, he screamed in an instant.
The game has a built-in voice system.
But
he is a social phobic, and the other three players are not much better.
So although Li Yu's ideas were similar to Cheng Lei's, he was not as noisy as Cheng Lei's at the beginning.
Instead, he was very silent.
Even though the four players thought the game was awesome, no one spoke, and they all shouted in private.
This also made their game progress much faster.
Cheng Lei and Jing Chao had just arrived at the shopping mall. While filling the cars on display with gasoline, they faced the continuous influx of zombies and saw the real tank for the first time.
Li Yu had already arrived at the third chapter of the Black Carnival.
But no one spoke.
Occasionally, someone would speak, but most of the time it was meaningless interjections.
The social phobia was fully displayed.
Until.
At the end of the first level of the Black Carnival, everyone broke the ice.
And the reason for breaking the ice was very heartwarming.
In the first level of the Black Carnival, in front of the safe house in the parking lot, everyone had cleared the zombies along the way and came to the door of the safe house.
However, everyone did not rush to enter the safe house, but leaned against the safe house to clean up the scattered zombies nearby.
But a buddy named "Balls of Courage" seemed to feel unsatisfied after clearing the wandering zombies. Following the faint crying, he went to wake up Witch.
Then he turned and ran.
Rushed in the direction of his three teammates, trying to enter the safe house.
The three teammates were confused.
Then he saw Witch and immediately turned around and ran.
Li Yu finally reacted.
The player named "Body of Courage" successfully entered the safe house. Seeing that Witch was about to close behind him, he immediately closed the door and blocked Li Yu outside the safe house.
Li Yu was stunned for a moment, and he didn't care about social phobia. He even forgot the door opening button and shouted: "I haven't entered the house yet! I haven't entered the house yet!"
His tone was excited.
He looked like he was going crazy.
There was no way. For players who were playing for the first time, the pressure of witches and tanks was really too strong.
Before he finished shouting, he was knocked down by the chasing Witch and fell outside the safe house.
The three teammates who had just rushed into the safe house saw Li Yu fall to the ground, stunned, and then quickly opened the door and ran out, and together they solved the Witch who was constantly torturing Li Yu.
Then.
The four fell into an awkward silence...
In the end, it was "Body of Courage" who saved Li Yu.
As he was rescuing her, he said awkwardly, "Sorry, I didn't know you hadn't come in yet."
Li Yu: "...So that's why you woke up Witch?"
The other two teammates heard the conversation between the two.
They couldn't hold it anymore.
"Hahaha, the door closed so quickly! We're done!"
"Hahaha, wait for a wave of attacks on teammates! Shoot them from behind!"
"..."
The 'gutsy' couldn't help laughing, "I was a little nervous. I saw the safe house was right in front of me, so I wanted to see if Witch would rush in...but this thing was too oppressive, 'You woke up Witch' with the creepy music, my brain went blank."
"The atmosphere was really great."
Li Yu didn't continue to care about it, but agreed, "I just forgot that I could open the door. Every time I heard the game characters shouting tanks and witches, I was nervous..."
"Hahaha, it's the same. In fact, special infected people are very exciting. They always pop up inexplicably to add excitement to the game. I don't know what Linmu Studio thinks."
"To be honest, when the tank appeared in the shopping mall in the first chapter, I shouted directly. The feeling of crazy shooting was really great."
"It's the same for me. Anyway, I think the biggest feeling of playing this game is fun. There are no puzzles or escape elements. You just keep pressing the left button and kill all the way to the end! It feels like you are fighting your way out of a siege. Even when facing special infected people, it is only a temporary difficulty, which makes it more fun!"
"The game is so well balanced in all aspects. The rhythm is well-paced, and the existence of special infected people has increased the fun of cooperation!"
"Linmu Studio is so awesome! I love this game so much!"
"..."
At this moment,
the conversation started.
The four of them started talking about the game while playing.
And they became more and more excited.
A severance of friendship turned out to be an opportunity to break social phobia.
In the following games, the four of them were no longer socially intimidated. When they encountered special senses, they would cry for help and talk to cooperate.
And they cooperated more and more handily.
Actually, the four of them had different game foundations.
But during the game, no one felt that anyone was a pitfall, and no one felt that they were just messing around without working.
After all, the game was not difficult. If they couldn't show off their special infected, could they not beat ordinary zombies?
This was definitely impossible.
So after the ice was broken, the four of them played the game more and more harmoniously.
Black Carnival, the last chapter.
The plot requires the four protagonists to use the stage fireworks and lights in the amusement park to attract the attention of the helicopter.
The four players looked at the stage in the game and the countless empty seats around them.
While imagining the next "performance effect", they began to arrange gasoline barrels around the stage.
And when everything was ready.
Li Yu turned on the stage light show.
Countless gorgeous fireworks shot up from the edge of the stage and exploded suddenly.
The light and fireworks show officially began.
The moment the powerful rock music sounded.
The sound of the zombies howling in the distance also sounded.
[They are coming]
With such a reminder.
Countless zombies appeared in the originally empty stage seats, and they rolled and crawled towards the four survivors on the stage.
Ta-ta-ta.
Four gun lines began to pour ammunition crazily.
As the gasoline barrels just placed around the stage were blown up and ignited.
Fire, fireworks, and gunfire appeared in front of Li Yu and other four players at the same time.
Countless zombies fell to the ground.
The sound of gunfire matched the gorgeous fireworks, like an ensemble.
"Oh hoo!!!"
Li Yu couldn't help it, and directly switched to a melee weapon guitar, then held the guitar handle, and shot the approaching ordinary zombies in the head with a guitar, and then howled directly: "Welcome everyone to the concert!"
There is no way.
The atmosphere is so great!
The romance of a concert at the end of the world!
Which other game can do this!
"Hahahaha."
The other three also laughed when they heard his words: "It really looks like a concert."
"Do you have a handshake coupon? If not, don't get close, or I'll blow your head off!"
"It's Chinese New Year!"
"Hunter——"
"Help——"
"He didn't get close, he just jumped on me."
"Hahahaha."
The four controlled their characters and stood in the center of the stage, just like a concert facing a crazy audience, constantly clearing out zombies and immersing themselves in the atmosphere created by the game. They
were so happy.
The only feeling was... it was great.
Lighting fireworks on the stage to fight zombies, you guys are really good, Linmu Studio!
This "concert" lasted for a long time.
Until.
Not far from the stage.
A rescue helicopter roared in and landed.
At the same time, the game reminded them, "Rescue is here, hurry up!", and they reluctantly dealt with the zombies in the distance and headed for the location of the rescue helicopter. But at the same time. The strongest zombie in the game, with a huge body, can easily knock survivors, other infected people, and even car garbage cans away. Tanks also appeared
. He wreaked havoc and smashed the survivors when he got close to them. "Who has an incendiary bomb? Throw one!" "Watch the people!" "Go, go, go, retreat while walking, go to the helicopter." "Brother, give me a medical kit!" "..." The four people retreated while dealing with the powerful tank. Incendiary bombs, bullets, and melee weapons were constantly fired. After finally getting rid of the first tank. The helicopter landed. More zombies rushed over. And the second tank also appeared. The four people fought and retreated again, watching each other. One person attracted the tank's attention, and the others frantically hit the back of the tank and threw incendiary bombs. If anyone fell down, go to rescue them immediately. The other two continued to attract the tank. The zombies came in waves. The roar of the helicopter continued to attract zombies. The ordinary zombies that kept pouring out mixed with the special infected. The scene was once very chaotic. There were too many. Too many zombies. The four people who played for the first time had no experience, and people fell to the ground frequently. But even if someone got on the helicopter, when they saw someone fall, they immediately came down to rescue people, and then fell and pulled them, and then pulled them and continued to fight. In this chaotic scene. The four of them fought their way out of the bloody situation! It was really tense!
But it was really cool!
Finally, the four of them came to the rescue helicopter in an orderly manner.
Rock music was still playing on the stage, as if seeing off Li Yu and other players.
When all four of them got on the helicopter.
Seeing the helicopter gradually take off.
Li Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief .
"It's so exciting!!!"
At this time.
The player who had just closed the door and pitted him said what he was thinking.
The other two teammates immediately laughed happily and said, "Yes, yes, it's so fucking great. If we don't get on the plane, the zombie tide will not stop! I'm like the God of War. My guitar feels broken, but I still fall down."
"It's so cool! It's like we're having a party in the zombie nest! And then we fought our way out! This level is great! This game is great!"
"Awesome! Four people, they just used the method of pulling people to beat us!"
"Brothers, keep going!"
"..."
At this moment, the four of them have completely lost their social phobia at the beginning, but are full of laughter.
Everyone let go.
Especially after the last level of the Black Carnival was cleared.
And in front of the screen.
Li Yu listened to the nonsense of these teammates who came from all over the world and didn't recognize each other's death, and smiled gently.
Then he sighed.
Is there any other game that can do this?
Not only can it allow people who play different games with completely different game foundations to quickly get started.
The game is also well-made! The atmosphere is extremely good! It can make people feel involved.
Moreover, it can also allow players to help each other and enhance their feelings, just like experiencing a movie together.
Is there any other game company that can do this?
No!
I can only say.
Linmu Studio... Awesome!!!
...
November 11.
On this day.
Countless players entered "Left 4 Dead" at the same time.
They either formed a wild team, played with friends, or played alone.
But no matter what the situation was.
Players were amazed and happy about the game.
Even if they played alone, there were AI teammates to accompany them.
They were not stupid, and they would give players blood packs.
They would also keep talking to relieve the loneliness of the players.
As for the quality of the game itself, as the most famous game in Lin Yao's previous life, it is also one of the most enduring games.
It really didn't disappoint the players here at all!
Linmu Studio.
Lin Yao sat in her seat, looked at the online data in the background of the game, and smiled.
Then she thought about it and opened the live broadcast website.
Although the enthusiasm of capital has slightly decreased due to takeout and taxi rides recently, the enthusiasm of users has not diminished. It
is still quite popular.
And the single-player game released by Linmu Studio, the anchor certainly can't miss it.
So Lin Yao didn't spend much effort to find a live broadcast room that was broadcasting "Left 4 Dead".
The anchor seemed to be an FPS master.
The game was just released not long ago.
He and his friends have already reached the chapter of "Storm and Wind".
When Lin Yao entered the live broadcast room.
They were playing the last level of the Storm and Wind chapter.
As the name of this chapter suggests-Storm and Wind!
The sky was covered with dark clouds, blocking most of the light.
And the sudden heavy rain like a typhoon further affected the vision.
In the gray haze.
Zombies howl.
The zombie tide is coming.
It's raining heavily!
The sense of oppression is overwhelming!
The blurred vision makes the players have no idea where the special infected will attack from, and they have to deal with countless ordinary zombies at the same time.
The meaning of the word "survival" is perfectly explained at this moment.
"My turtle..."
In the live broadcast room.
The host's face became visibly nervous.
And the real-time comments.
Countless players watching became nervous just by watching.
"This is too hopeless!"
"Oh my god, this is too depressing. How could these four unlucky guys be so unlucky? Either they missed the rescue helicopter or the helicopter pilot was infected. Now the ship has no gasoline. After finally finding gasoline, they have to face this kind of horrible weather!"
"The atmosphere is really great... Whether it is the details of the rainstorm blocking the view or the muffled sound of the rainstorm, it is really amazing!"
"While waiting for rescue, the rainstorm suddenly became heavier, and zombies kept pouring in, but their traces could not be seen clearly... Damn, it really feels like being there, Linmu Studio is really good at it."
"If you don't understand, just ask, is this an experimental work?"
"..."
Lin Yao glanced at the real-time comments of the players.
At this time.
In the live broadcast, the host has already started to deal with the first wave of zombies after the rainstorm suddenly became heavier.
As expected, there were all kinds of problems.
The host and his friends took turns shouting.
Especially when the tank came out.
"Fuck! This atmosphere! This weather! Is it really that realistic! I can't see anything clearly.
I have to walk up to the zombies to know where they came from." "I want to be a deserter. Otherwise, let's go back to the last safe house, Brother Li..."
"...Have some shamelessness, the audience is watching!"
"Tank!" "
Molotov cocktail! Throw it at me! Let me burn it!"
"Think about it with your pig brain, it's raining heavily! Light one up for me to see!"
"Burn it, right? Look at me charging at the tank, is it burning!!! Wait... help!"
"Fuck..."
The two bickered with each other, adding a touch of humor to the originally depressing level.
The audience's attention was also attracted by these two funny guys, and they started to laugh "Hahahaha".
Lin Yao held her cheek with one hand, watching the live broadcast, and suddenly smiled softly.
She thought of the scene when she played this game for the first time in her previous life...
As expected.
Good games will never become outdated.
People who liked to play them back then will still like to play them now.
Players in that world like to play them, and players here will also like to play them.
However,
it is difficult to get together the people who played together back then...
Yes, no one will dislike games.
Who would dislike games? This is something that can make people happy and relaxed.
But sometimes, it is easy for liking to kneel down in front of the pressure of survival.
Enjoying games can sometimes become a luxury...
"However, this is a new game."
Lin Yao raised her head, stretched, and then said to herself: "It is not an old game launched more than ten years ago... So play happily!"
At the end,
she smiled brightly.
Like a blooming rose.
...
That night.
The first batch of players who passed the game appeared.
Major game forums exploded.
The quality of the game "Left 4 Dead" can be said to be far beyond the expectations of all players.
Especially when Linmu Studio did not play by the rules and announced the game in advance, and then someone sang badly.
Some players were indeed affected and murmured.
This made them feel uneasy the moment they opened the game.
It was not until
they finished the first level of the first chapter that
they really realized what level this game was.
The excitement and excitement brought by the fast pace of the game were really great!
And the game quality that far exceeded expectations even made them evaluate the game much higher.
After these players finished the game, they almost didn't stop for a moment and ran to the forum to brag about the game with other players.
Of course,
there was also a settlement.
The post of '竹零444' who had just started to criticize the game was still there. Because of the quarrel, the post was quite popular at the time.
Many players have made up their minds. If the game is not good when it is released, then it's another matter, but if the quality is great, then they will settle accounts severely!
So.
Here it comes...
"Speak up! Zhu Ling 444!"
"Is this what you mean by not having too high expectations? Has the potential of zombie games been fully tapped? Tell me which game can be like Left 4 Dead, where you can run wildly in an endless tide of zombies and experience the exhilarating feeling of adrenaline rushing?"
"Tense, exciting, and immersive! What else do you want? Come out and speak!"
"I want to ask the OP, have you finished Black Carnival? Have you finished Storm? I want to know how you feel after you finish playing. I don't mean anything else, just an interview."
"Playing with a few friends, four people supporting each other, playing together, and chopping zombies together is really great! If such a work is still an experimental work, then I can't wait for more experimental works!"
"Did the OP not buy the game? Why are you not talking?"
"..."
Many players commented under the post.
It was also quite intense.
Of course.
Most of them were teasing.
And the player with the ID 'Zhu Ling 444' did not reply for a long time.
Until.
The post he posted was pushed to the hot section again.
He finally appeared in the 523rd floor.
His reply was also very simple...
[Just finished the "Left 4 Dead" storm level... [white flag][kneel down][picture]]
He confessed that he also played the game.
Then, he sent a white flag surrender and kneeling expression, and finally attached a silly picture that was modified by the original player.
It was the silly picture of Lin Yao spreading his wings, descending from the sky, holding a "Left 4 Dead" game.
But the silly picture sent by this user was modified again.
On the basis of the original, he added a kneeling stickman in front of Lin Yao, and added an ID on the stickman's head, which was his own ID - '竹零444'.
This '竹零444' didn't say much.
But it seemed to say a lot...
everything was self-evident.
After his reply was discovered.
Countless players sent out 'laughing' expressions.
Nearly a thousand replies.
...
One week.
Just one week!
The unconventional "Left 44" sold 2.4 million copies!
And the game has been on sale for a week, and the number of online players is still one million...
If this result is not considered a success,
then there are not many successful games!
This zombie-themed game is completely popular!
And it is blooming both domestically and overseas!
One week after the game was released, Linmu Studio also announced a blockbuster news.
That is - they will launch the editing toolkit of "Left 44" to serve the next creative workshop, and allow players to unpack the game vpk file and extract game resources, such as model textures.
Moreover, they will also add an import entry for the creative workshop project directly in the game.
This means that
players can freely change models and make their own maps! As soon as
this news came out , players who wanted to do it and those who didn’t wanted to were all excited! In less than two days, the "Left 4 Dead" creative workshop had a bunch of strange mods, mainly mods that replaced the images of the four protagonists in the game. But even these mods, as soon as they were released, the number of downloads exceeded 10,000 or even 100,000 in minutes! At this moment, the energy of this game and the atmosphere of the Linmu Studio game community were fully demonstrated. Linmu Studio’s colleagues watched the "Left 4 Dead" game explode this week. Now seeing this scene again, seeing that "Left 4 Dead" is undoubtedly a great success again... I only have one thought: Linmu Studio... is really cool. (End of this chapter)
