Chapter 111 Confrontation!
In full swing!
As the release date of the promotional video draws closer, Xun Teng and Yiyu have begun to deploy their troops.
Xun Teng took the lead in making arrangements.
The advance general on the first day was Tian Lang.
After all, they are the core base, and they are the first to be sent out and lay the foundation. This is beyond doubt.
The next day, it was glorious.
As the representative of the second-generation online FPS in this escort masterpiece, Guangyao has set its sights on the battle royale market and is targeting PUBG, hoping to grab a big piece of the pie.
As for the third day, it was naturally Zhenting Studio.
The game brought by Zhen Ting this time is a stand-alone shooting game with a futuristic science fiction theme. It also adopts the design of the second-generation FPS, with a story-based plot and multiplayer combat as a supplement.
Three great generals!
The array is complete!
soon!
The news reached Yan Sheng.
This is not a difficult task.
We are all thousand-year-old foxes, and it is inevitable that we don’t have an accomplice in the opponent’s house.
Besides, Xun Teng did not specifically block the news this time.
After all, all three of Xun Teng's works are shooting games, so the order is not particularly important.
This time, what Polar Bear Generation 3 has to do is to take advantage of the weakness of the art and game FPS category and seize the market share of the new generation of somatosensory cabin shooting games in one fell swoop.
Although it seems that they are exchanging shooting games for sports and racing games, it is a two-for-one deal.
But in fact, they did not lose money, and even made a small profit.
Because as far as the current game market is concerned, shooting games account for a larger share in the motion sensing cabin than the other two items.
It's even comparable to the other two games combined.
After receiving the news, Yan Sheng quickly convened a senior management meeting to respond to Xun Teng’s deployment.
Finally, after the vote of a group of senior executives, Yiyu's formation was formed.
In the first round, Nuyan Games took action and Ace Racing Game appeared on the scene, seizing the racing game market with its stable quality.
In the second round, Japan's Kol game company came out and brought a football game, providing cross-border support for Yiyou x2.
And finally!
It is naturally the golden wind.
If this was a show.
Then there is no doubt that the position where the Golden Wind is located is called the big axis, or the finale, which is the most important position in a performance.
But it's a pity.
This competition is not a performance.
In order to seize the market as early as possible.
The games that appear in the morning are relatively more important.
Although this result was expected, when the battle formations of both sides came out, the media couldn't help but discuss it -
"This time, Yiyou ranked Golden Wind at the end. The subtext seems to be very obvious. -"
"The last one! There is no doubt that the biggest role of Golden Wind in this escort is to fill the role..."
"A fig leaf for the Yiyou FPS category? No, obviously, the size of Golden Wind is not even a fig leaf..."
'Has the golden wind that has been popular in the gaming industry since the first game, Riot, begun to decline?'
'The fatal choice of subject matter and the incomparable size, what is the significance of Golden Wind's participation in the escort this time?'
'MFGA is about to become a thing of the past, and the founder of the second generation FPS is about to fall from the altar...'
"……"
Media reports are flying everywhere.
Of course, some of the media outlets did make predictions and evaluations on Golden Wind’s promotional video battle from an objective perspective.
But more media took Xun Teng's side and attacked Golden Wind.
Seeing one of its flagship masterpieces being beaten up, Yiyou would naturally not sit idly by.
He also hired some navy to attack back.
He angrily scolded Tian Lang for being rigid and conservative.
He blasted Guangyao for malicious plagiarism and bullying the weak.
Yin Yang Zhen Ting is playing ungrateful and getting more and more old-fashioned.
In fact, many times, business wars are that simple.
It's far from being as grand as portrayed in the movie plot.
They hire internet trolls to stir up trouble, send headhunters to poach your employees, and even pull out your internet cables and cut your electrical cables, pour boiling water on your money trees, secretly take out your company's fortune fish and add spicy sauce to them.
No matter how well-thought-out a plan is, it is not as practical as pulling the main power switch at the critical moment of your project.
The two sides fought back and forth, and the fight was lively and exciting.
The first battle between Yiyou and Xunteng Technology officially started at the end of the month amid a strong smell of gunpowder.
First round!
Tianlang versus Nuyan.
Both sides are generals of their respective camps, and the games they produce are also quite satisfactory.
What Tianlang brings this time is still a first-person first-generation FPS game.
However, this time, Tianlang added more modes to the game.
There is the arms race that was popular in the Asian Games before, there is the biochemical infection mode, and even a MOD produced by the ordinary Xiao Wang team in Left 4 Dead to create a level-breaking PVE mode.
What Nuyan brings is an off-road rally racing game.
Career mode, quick mode, multiplayer competitive mode, track unlocking, vehicle modification, cup championship...
This game basically includes everything that comes with a racing game. Moreover, for this game, Nuyan has also collaborated with several automobile manufacturers to include many real car models and accessories to make the game more professional.
On the first day, the two sides faced off, with each occupying half of the market heat.
This result was acceptable to both parties and was also within their expectations.
But in the second round of battle, the situation changed.
Speaking of which, this matter is actually Gu Sheng's fault.
The second generation FPS plus the battle royale is so awesome!
The work launched by Guangyao this time is called "Special Operations". The mode is almost exactly the same as PUBG. The only difference is that killing is changed to drill.
When bullets hit the enemy, green blood will appear, and killing the opponent is no longer a "kill" but a "elimination".
Even to prove this point, the enemies who were killed will wave at you and then place the box at their feet, making it look like they made an urn for themselves.
It's outrageous, but it perfectly circumvents the rating restrictions of PUBG16+ and is suitable for all age groups.
Under such a powerful offensive, it was only natural that Kol Game was defeated.
"The overall popularity is 37 to 63. As of now, the promotional video of Golden Wind is still in the final rendering and has not been delivered yet."
Looking at the data summary in his hand, Yan Sheng frowned:
"With external and internal troubles, the situation is very unfavorable for us..."
What he held in his hand was the comprehensive comparison of popularity compiled and released by China Entertainment.
The data is calculated and summarized through Huayu Electric's big data analysis and is very authoritative.
The sharp decline in market popularity has made Yan Sheng anxious.
Obviously.
Now, Xun Teng has completely gained the upper hand.
The popularity of FPS in the motion sensing cabin is indeed far beyond that of sports games.
In fact, originally, Yiyou had hope to rely on Zhenting Studio, a veteran FPS manufacturer, to make a comeback in the end.
But when it rains, it pours.
This time, Zhen Ting not only did not help them, but he also turned to Xun Teng and became one of their rivals.
Everyone knew that what Yan Sheng said about the "unfavorable situation" was ultimately a conservative statement.
If nothing unexpected happens, they will be defeated in the first round of confrontation with Xun Teng Technology.
The popularity gap is 26 percentage points, unless Zhen Ting switches with the Golden Wind camp at this time.
Otherwise, there is no possibility of a comeback!
The media’s discussion, Yiyou’s predicament, and Xunteng Technology’s early start of the next round of publicity deployment!
The entire gaming community has already tacitly accepted Golden Wind’s defeat tonight, and is certain that Yiyoux2 will face a disadvantage in their first battle!
Some media have even said things like "some people have already died, they were just buried after they stopped breathing"!
And amidst all the discussions!
Eight o'clock in the evening!
The promotional videos of both parties were released at the same time——
"Thanks for the plane that A is sorry for..."
" Thanks to the old woman for the unreasonable card application..."
"Thanks to me and Sister Zhou from Chengbei for getting the card..."
"Thank you very much for the cards and gifts, come to the room management and ban all the bitches I just read."
Shark, Dai Xiaomei’s live broadcast room.
The anchor Dai Xiaomei used courtesy first and then force, and carried out a sting operation, which filled the live broadcast room with question marks.
The huge success of PUBG has made a large number of anchors famous, and Dai Xiaomei is one of them.
With her funny live broadcast style and endless pranks, Dai Xiaomei, who is carefree and has a slightly abstract style, has attracted 30 million fans in just four months since her launch, becoming one of the big anchors in the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds area after Tuanzi.
From an unknown little person to a big anchor worth millions today.
Dai Xiaomei’s own live broadcast exploration and efforts are definitely the top priority.
But at the same time, she is also very grateful to Golden Wind and PUBG.
Because if it weren't for this game, it might take a very long time for her to become popular, or even she wouldn't have the chance to become popular at all.
So, when she went online today, she did not call her friends to play with her as usual, but started the game immediately.
Instead, he opened the official website of Yiyou Technology first.
Today is the day when the trailer for the new game Golden Wind is released to warm up the situation.
Ever since the battle of the motion sensing cabins began, Dai Xiaomei has read some reports and knows that Golden Wind has always played the role of an underdog in this war that has affected the entire Chinese gaming community.
It's a weakling, with its production cost and publicity efforts not even one-tenth of its competitors.
Therefore, she wanted to do what she could to promote Golden Wind and stand up for Golden Wind.
"Let's play games later. The trailer for Golden Wind's new game was released today. Let's take a look first. I'm really looking forward to their new game."
As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted heated discussions in the live broadcast room——
"Forget it now, Xiao Huang is pulling this wave"
"Indeed, the choice of mecha as a topic was wrong from the beginning."
"This time, Xiao Huang definitely didn't want to do well. He is a low-level horse character."
"It's just Yiyou's mission."
"Fuck, you understand the mission"
"Instead of watching Golden Wind, it's better to watch Zhen Ting's work this time. It is said to be a science fiction theme."
'Indeed, Zhen Ting's game quality has always been quite good'
'Let's take a look at Zhen Ting's
"That's right, let's take a look at Zhen Ting's first and chat..."
Ah this...
Seeing the screen full of pessimistic comments, Dai Xiaomei grinned slightly.
She had seen many people say before that the theme of Golden Wind's game was not good.
But I didn’t expect it to be so bad!
There are tens of thousands of viewers in the live broadcast room, and eight out of ten are pessimistic!
Although no one deliberately attacked Gu Sheng and Xiao Huang, after all, the quality of their previous works was indeed excellent.
But for this escort masterpiece, no one has much hope.
Dai Xiaomei was a little embarrassed.
To be honest, she didn't want to give Zhen Ting the picture.
Because she played the film for Golden Wind today, mainly to support Xiao Huang.
Zhenting’s games have high investments, good reputations, and high expectations.
Comparing the two, even if she wanted to praise Xiao Huang, she wouldn't be able to open her mouth at that time.
But!
Following the suggestion of one of the audience, the screen of the live broadcast room is now full of "Kang Kang Zhen Ting"!
Dai Xiaomei is in a difficult situation.
"How about... we don't want to watch it anymore? I'd better ask my playmate to start the game, right?"
Dai Xiaomei has learned a lot from the elder brother Yinzi, and is ready to live as long as heaven and earth, so she simply cuts off the broadcast.
However, the audience's interest cannot be suppressed so easily!
Immediately!
Countless colorful comments of "unfollowed" appeared in the live broadcast room!
Out of helplessness!
Dai Xiaomei had no choice but to open the official website of Xun Teng Technology first, while praying in her heart that Zhen Ting’s game would not be too amazing and Xiao Huang’s game would not be too bad.
I only need a little bit of advantage, even just a tiny bit, and I can brag about it, as a way of repaying PUBG for its kindness to me!
As I thought about it, the web page opened.
It can be seen that Xunteng Technology has spared no effort in promoting the third generation of Polar Bear.
The promotional page on the homepage is cool and eye-catching, with three major escort masterpieces listed below!
What is unlocked today is the FPS escort masterpiece "Insect Tide 2100" produced by Zhenting Studio.
Clicking on the trailer, the screen automatically went full screen, and the voice-over came from Dai Xiaomei's high-end surround sound system:
[I have asked myself many times, why did we come here...]
[One hundred, three hundred, five hundred. Every day, the list of casualties grows...]
But everyone knows...
Bang bang!
The scene cuts in with the sound of gunfire.
In the alien wildness of the Danxia landform, countless alien monsters with sprawling branches and twigs are overwhelming and sweeping in.
Soldiers wearing heavy exoskeleton armor shouted and pulled the trigger.
The fire network is intertwined, blocking the alien beasts.
Light sabers, exoskeletons, all-terrain tanks, and miniature nuclear strikes.
The flames of war spread across the planet.
The sharp jaws of the spider monster, the acid spitting of the giant beetle, and the huge sickle of the flying mantis.
Every monster on the alien battlefield is extremely deadly.
Fighting, gunfire, screams of death and raging flames were intertwined.
As the perspective becomes higher and higher, you can see a huge fleet of human beings rushing towards you in outer space...
【We have no way out.】
The plot of Zhenting's game is not complicated.
In 2100, the resources of Blue Planet were exhausted, and it was decided to start interstellar migration.
However, the insect swarm on the target planet is too dangerous. Therefore, in order to open up a new home, the protagonist's advance team must find and destroy the core insect nest.
What is unique is that in this game, Zhen Ting gave the game two endings.
The first is to completely eliminate the Zerg and establish a new home for mankind.
The second is to realize that their so-called just actions are actually naked and ugly colonial massacres with an open ending.
Wow——
After the promotional video was played , there was a burst of exclamations in the live broadcast room!
"This exoskeleton armor is pretty cool."
"Fuck, I'm most afraid of arthropods. My scalp is tingling."
"Zhen Ting is indeed a company known for its plot. Just watching the promotional video alone makes people excited."
'This is awesome!'
'I declare that "Insect Tide 2100" wins the championship, beating the other five escorts in both aspects!'
'I declare your declaration valid!'
'What nesting dolls?'
"This promotional video is awesome. I have no idea what Xiao Huang can do to win."
"This exoskeleton alone is amazing enough. It perfectly solves the problem of the mecha's poor balance."
'You must come in when you go out!'
"Zhen Ting is awesome..."
Looking at the cheers of the netizens, Dai Xiaomei felt a chill in her heart.
I have to admit it.
As a long-established Chinese FPS game manufacturer, Zhenting's work quality is indeed impeccable.
Both the pictures and the plot are top-notch, and even the plot has become unique.
It is a foregone conclusion that Golden Wind cannot match it.
Now, Dai Xiaomei just prays that Xiao Huang’s work this time doesn’t end up dying too ugly!
After a round of exciting discussion!
Friends also turned their attention to Golden Wind——
'Let's take a look at Xiao Huang's and Brother Sheng's scientific research results, hahahaha'
"Indeed, after watching the trailer for Zhen Ting, I actually want to watch Golden Wind even more."
'I just want to see where the difference is'
"Just for fun, huh?"
"That's wrong! Only by facing the gap can we catch up."
'This wave of little yellow is very brave, I hope everyone will not criticize too harshly later'
'Indeed, even for PUBG's sake'
"……"
The audience joked and urged Dai Xiaomei to watch the promotional video of Golden Wind's escort masterpiece again with the mentality of watching for fun.
"Okay, okay,"
It was hard to disobey orders, so Dai Xiaomei could only grin and open the official website of Yiyou Platform again:
"But let me make this clear first, you can watch it if you want. If you have any questions, we can discuss them, but don't be sarcastic or curse, or I'll use my authority."
As she spoke, Dai Xiaomei opened the Yiyou platform.
The huge banner on the platform’s homepage is extremely eye-catching.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, a mecha that is more than two people tall and holding a machine gun rifle is solid, heavy, steady, and reliable, like a solid barrier.
The azure core visual system looks into the distance.
In front of the mecha, there stood a fully armed soldier. The azure light emanating from the visor of his helmet was exactly the same as the visual core system of the mecha behind him, and his eyes were also looking into the distance.
A moment!
Everyone in the live broadcast room was a little stunned.
The setting sun is like blood, and the shadows are like ink.
The cold steel-textured mechas and their operator warriors stand on the mountain, majestic and sharp.
Although this is just a promotional poster, it is not difficult to tell from the azure light emanating from the eyes of the man and the armor -
The bond and connection between them is incomparable to any previous mecha games.
They complement each other, being both pilot and mecha, and also partners fighting side by side.
You are me with superior firepower, and I am you with cleverness and resourcefulness.
What I am going to tell you next is the story of “us”.
The name of the story is -
Titanfall
