The Start of the Game
Chapter 375:The Start of the Game
The prelude ended in the midst of the ongoing war.
Tang Ying control of the mech shot the last particle cannon at the distant thunder beast, the insect army failed, and humans began to launch a comprehensive counterattack to clean up the battlefield.
The mech driven by the protagonist has exhausted all the energy, and in the CG of the scene, the protagonist has come down from the broken mech, and his helmet mask is also contaminated with the green slime of many insects.The self-cleaning function of the mask is activated and the field of view is cleaned up again.
At this time, the camera passed through the protagonist's body and kept rising, overlooking the entire vast battlefield.
Human and insect wars have left indelible traces on this planet, in the vast battlefield, there are explosions everywhere burning black smoke, a large area of insect carcasses closed down in the craters, trenches, the limbs and shells of the insect are completely burned to black, as if they are emitting a foul odor.
Although mankind has won, it has also paid a terrible price.
The camera continues to pull up, and it is a faint sight of distant humans stranded on the surface of the planet's Starfleet.These large ships are all seriously damaged, some of the spacecraft's appearance has even been beyond recognition, the general intact ships can also see all kinds of defects, no ship is intact.
In the middle of the ship, there are still the bodies of many worms, which suddenly appeared from the ground, causing the human Starfleet to be severely damaged.
In the voice of the internal communication channel, the team members and the more senior commanders are constantly reporting or conducting on-site command, but gradually, the voice of the internal communication channel is getting smaller and smaller, replaced by the unique BGM of Starfire 2.
In the background melody, the camera continues to pull up, and finally the deep red planet in the sky is fixed, like dim blood.The color of the crimson also symbolizes its life, which is a star that is close to the end of the year, and it is possible to turn the entire star system into purgatory at any time.
The final camera is fixed in the distance, high is the deep red as blood large stars, below the reddish-brown land and smokeless battlefield.The protagonist stands alone next to the huge mech, looking at the stars in the sky, and there is an indescribable sadness and desolation in the back, and I do not know whether they are nostalgic for their hometown.
The title of the game appeared on the screen: "Interstellar Fire 2: Rebellion!"
...
Although it is a sequel, Starfire 2 has no direct continuation of the previous game, but more like two different perspectives under the same timeline.
The former is the commander’s perspective, the latter is the perspective of an ordinary soldier.
In any case, the role of this prequel is to allow players to familiarize themselves with the operation, to put themselves into the background of the game, and to show the grand scene of the war from the perspective of an ordinary soldier.
All of these goals have been exceeded.
In the close cooperation of the GS1 simulator, the somatoshield and the all-view display, Starfire 2 completely eaves up the experience of the FPS game to several levels, allowing the players to get a completely different game experience.
The audience in the radio room was also very happy.
Although there is no 360-degree surround screen and somatosus, but the quality of "Starfire 2" itself does not lose the 3A masterpiece on the market, even if it is viewed in a traditional form, it will be shocking to this big scene.
...
The beginning of the chapter ends, seamlessly linking the content of the main article.
The big words of the title of the game gradually disappeared, the camera still maintained the perspective of the overlooking, the red sun in the sky slowly sinking, and the night sky was full of stars.
Because the atmosphere on this planet is very thin, the stars and rivers in the sky are also very bright.
The camera moved down, the chaotic battlefield during the day was being cleaned up, and the bodies of the worms were not thrown away, but were collected by humans as a special resource.
On this planet, humanity has always been in a state of extreme scarcity of resources, and all available materials cannot be wasted.
Humans use some of the normal functioning warships as a base, but also to expand outside the warships, built some relatively easy to build buildings, built a simple complex as a base for humans on the planet.
The lights are bright in the base, and many unknown facilities are working all night long, which may be smelters, resource gathering sites, and so on.
A small ship shuttles near a human base, and those ships function differently, some for investigation, some for collecting resources, like hard-working bees, seemingly busy but orderly.
The camera flies in the direction of the human base and ends up trailing behind a small spaceship as it lands on the ground.
A tired human team stepped out of the craft and used roller skates to march toward the nearby barracks.
In this team, Tang Ying recognized the back of the protagonist.The protective clothing worn by the protagonist is slightly different from the others, and his body is also taller.In fact, the protagonist's identity is a sergeant major, although the rank is not high, but the entire fleet has a high prestige.
“The boss!”
“The boss!”
The protagonist enters the barracks and walks through the frequent passageways, and many soldiers are busy doing their own things, but after seeing the protagonist, they still stand up to salute.
The "banner" is not a military rank, but a honorable title, and the soldiers will call the veteran who is older than themselves "the squad leader".This can also reflect the position of the protagonist in the military camp from the side.
Dragging the tired body back to the barracks, the protagonist took off the helmet, took off the roller skates, hung the protective clothing next to him, sat down on the chair, took the portable kettle next to him, and poured a few mouthfuls of water.
There are special closed methods in the military camp to keep oxygen from leaking, so in these buildings, humans can take off their protective clothing and relax themselves.
The protagonist's left arm has several scars that are not very deep, and after a moment's rest, he removed the bandage from the medical box next to him and bandaged after disinfection.
The game scene of the whole process is instant calculus, and Tang Ying looks at it all like a spectator.
At this time, the player only knows the name of the protagonist through the nameplate of the protagonist's bed: Luo Zhou, the first sergeant major.
In the past similar interstellar science fiction themes, the vast majority of the protagonists are Westerners, the first time to see the Chinese name, the Chinese face, or let Tang Ying and all the audience are a little excited.
After removing the helmet, Tang Ying finally saw the appearance of Luo Zhou.He was about thirty-five or six years old, a standard yellow human face, with a few broken stubble on his face; more than one meter and eight, his weight was not good to judge, but his body, like most Chinese soldiers, was not the kind of strong muscle male in the West, but a lean, flexible body type.
However, if he is underestimating his combat effectiveness because of his size, it will be a very wrong judgment.
Luo Zhou's neck has a pendant, transparent high hardness material inside is a small photo, is a family, his father, mother-in-law, wife and daughter.
The picture only gave the pendant a relatively short shot, and it quickly flashed by.
“Roco, is today’s action going well?”Next to the other soldier, he asked as he cleared his gun.
Luo Zhou said lightly: "A large energy mine was found, but there are a lot of traces of insect activity around."
The soldier was silent for a moment: "That is to say, there will soon be another vicious battle."
Luo Zhou did not speak, his left arm has been bandaged, after a little activity felt no problem, but also joined the ranks of the soldiers, together to clean up their own guns.
The four soldiers in the barracks lived in the same compartment, the space was very small, and the upper and lower bunks were only able to barely guarantee that they would not touch the head.
It is not easy to build enough barracks in such a short period of time so that most people can have a place to live, and there is nothing to complain about.
The soldiers ended their day’s mission, tinting and chatting.
In the dialogue, a lot of information was revealed on the side, such as concerns about helium flash.
Humans have found signs of aging in the star, but the sudden attack of the worm family has caused the human fleet to lose so much that they are already trapped on the planet.
Now, these soldiers have a heavy task every day, on the one hand, to fight against the army of insects who do not know when, on the other hand, they must also undertake the task of surveying and exploration, and cooperate with the expedition team to find nearby energy mines to ensure that the entire industrial system can be rebuilt as soon as possible.
Whether it is to repair the spacecraft or escape through other means, the first prerequisite is to gain a foothold on the planet.
Although the situation is extremely serious, there are still many soldiers who maintain an optimistic attitude.From the dialogue, Tang Ying learned that this group also had a complete psychological collapse - when the earth was invaded, the home may have been completely destroyed, and the whole fleet decided to start a long drift to the endless universe, many people's mentality completely collapsed, and a large number of people committed suicide in the frenzy of despair.
But slowly, the people in the fleet reversed this mentality, so although it is now almost impossible to survive, most of the soldiers have learned not to worry about these problems, but to focus on the things in front of them.
After cleaning his gun, the protagonist wiped his face with a limited-distributed cleaning agent, and turned over the bed to rest.
The next day.
Luo Zhou got out of bed and was fully dressed, and Tang Ying officially took over the control of the role.
The soldiers around them have busy things, and the next mission goals appear on Tang Ying's screen, guiding her to start the official game content.
There are work tables in specific areas of the barracks, which can be modified and repaired to their own firearms, and some specific materials need to be consumed.Of course, as the game progresses, some outside positions will have similar workbench, which will allow players to modify their firearms before fighting.
The gun system in the game is similar to the "Xuanjia Plan", Luozhou has three guns, two long guns hanging behind his back, and a pistol in his waist.There are many types of firearms, including shotguns, automatic rifles, sniper rifles, heavy machine guns, etc. The use of different accessories can also achieve different reinforcement effects, but only two long guns can be carried after leaving the warehouse each time.
Injection agents, shooting throws and other functions are also integrated into this multi-function auxiliary pistol, at the same time, the pistol also has a certain combat ability, after being loaded with enough accessories also has a good power.
Hanging out in the barracks, you can talk to many NPCs, who have their own personality characteristics, some have special functions, and the other part will reveal some intelligence and combat skills in small talk.
There are weapons merchants in the barracks, and all weapons and accessories are exchanged for meritorious points.In this very tense state of war, all materials are distributed according to the military, and in most cases, they are strictly distributed according to work.
Killing people, collecting special materials, exploring and discovering new veins, discovering insect nests, and completing specific tasks, these "good for human beings" behavior will increase the meritorious points.
In the barracks, Luo Zhou's main NPCs are functional officers (such as selling weapons, publishing missions, collecting materials, etc.) and members of his own squad.
The squad is composed of many different races, Luo Zhou is a Chinese, there are Westerners, Africans and so on.Because of the real-time translation system, everyone can communicate without obstacles.
Each member of the entire squad is responsible for different functions, in charge of different tasks such as assault, sniper, blasting, logistics and so on.
For example, the squad as a sniper is a taciturn Westerner, cherishing the words, but occasionally teach the protagonist some special skills to use sniper rifles and so on.
At present, the main task of these teams is to explore.In the background of the story, the main goal of mankind at this time is to open up territory on the planet, find resource veins, build bases, find nearby insect threats and eliminate them.
In the execution of some large-scale tasks, such as attacking the nest of insects and eliminating this type of task, humans must mobilize heavy troops to launch large-scale campaigns, but other activities, such as collecting resources, exploring, and solving small groups of insects, are carried out in small teams.Because of the limited number of people, in order to make the most efficient use of existing human resources, it must be carried out in this “scammering” model.
The first part of the game, which is to explore the vast scenes around the base, is a semi-open world play.
In this section, the protagonist and the rest of the team will perform nearby tasks, including collecting resources, rescuing other teams, eliminating small worm forces, and so on.In battle, the rest of the team is controlled by AI, and they work closely with the protagonist to complete the task.
In the semi-open world, the protagonist can explore at will, and there will be some unexpected events during the period, and there may be injuries.Once injured, you need to buy drugs, and the injured members will be absent for a certain period of time.
Of course, this part of the content also has the main plot, with the player's continuous exploration, the activities of the insect will become more and more rampant, and finally to find a large nest of insects as the end.
In the course of the game, Tang Ying also discovered some special features of this game.
A very significant feature is that the game for the control of the UI is extremely restrained, the task target is displayed on the full-view display; the lighting system (fobservable) is integrated on the gun, but after a period of use, it will need to charge, and the small screen on the gun simulator will display the charging progress; the line of sight may be covered by the mucus or sand of the insect, and there is a special self-cleaning function, but it needs to be used manually; protective clothing and metal arm may be damaged, and special materials are needed to repair it.
In short, the game highlights as much as possible a sense of realism, although this is a sci-fi game, but the various details of the game are still constantly prompting the player to survive in this world is very difficult.
At this stage, the main goal of the game is still to guide the player to adapt to the rhythm of the game.The difficulty of this period is not high, the enemies encountered are some scattered insects, materials can also be bought at any time in the barracks, as long as the task of brushing more brushing will not be too scarce resources, there are teammates to help, the battle is rarely encountered danger.
When the player and the bug family play difficult, the distant sniper teammate (AI) suddenly killed the worms fighting with the player, many players have a gratifying and grateful mood, the benefits of teamwork.
Moreover, semi-open maps also give players a higher degree of freedom.
At this stage, players will gradually become familiar with some of the game settings, such as the habit of hoarding materials.It not only gives enough guidance to the player, and it does not allow the novice to encounter too many setbacks and difficulties because of the lack of materials and the difficulty.
