[News Announcer: After today's fierce fighting, the U.S. Marines began to advance to the city where Alasad made his last desperate struggle...]
The fighting in the capital was extremely fierce, with anti-aircraft artillery and burning buildings lighting up the sky above the entire city.
For a successful war-themed game, how to depict the intensity of war and the bravery of the soldiers is not actually the most important thing.
Quite the opposite.
The anti-war thinking in war themes is the key to making players think in a game.
Obviously.
Call of Duty has made a small successful attempt in this regard.
With the help of the simulated limb amputation system, most players who turn on this mode will be shocked by the cruel scenes of war.
Human life is so fragile under the attack of powerful thermal weapons.
When the bloody scene was presented before them, many players realized that war was far from what was portrayed in TV dramas.
There will be no slow motion when a hero sacrifices himself, and a bullet hitting the body will not just leave a small bloody hole.
If the scene of hell can still be seen in the world, then this hell must be on the battlefield.
War is not pretty at all.
And this was just a small-scale street fight.
If one day, Golden Wind can extend this kind of thinking and bring it to a larger battlefield, I wonder how explosive the effect will be.
Simon thought so.
Yes, right after the release of "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare", Matt Simon, the editor-in-chief of the world's largest comprehensive gaming community, naturally entered the game to experience it as soon as possible.
Without a doubt.
The impact that this modern warfare brought to him was huge.
Here, the feeling of being immersed in the all-round combat of modern warfare by land, sea and air is unprecedented.
Against the grand backdrop of global peace and security, the tension of this full-scale, three-dimensional combat is rendered even more profound.
The unparalleled sense of immersion allowed him to empathize with the situation.
The plot development was not dragged out at all, which also made him excited.
In this clever double-line narrative, Simon had a feeling that he seemed to be getting closer and closer to the center of the conspiracy vortex.
In the operation just now, they came up empty-handed.
Al-Assad was not present at the so-called National Radio and Television Center.
And his speech was just a pre-recorded CD.
At this moment, both Simon and the character he played, Sergeant Paul Jackson, felt genuinely uneasy.
It was obvious that Alassad had already escaped.
However, if Al-Asad had already fled, why would he use the speech DVD to lure them deeper into the center of the quagmire of war?
Is it an attempt to escape and delay time?
Or is there another agenda, a hidden danger?
Simon doesn't know, and neither does Sergeant Paul in the game .
Because at this moment, after nearly a day and a night of fierce fighting, they have already penetrated deep into this unfamiliar land and are deeply trapped in the quagmire of war...
[Deep in the quagmire]
【Day 3 - 05:00:16】
Sergeant Paul Jackson
[U.S. Marine Corps 1st Reconnaissance Company]
Gunfire, smoke, craters...
The billowing smoke that covered the sky enveloped the city, covering the sky in a black and yellow haze.
Not far away, buildings were ablaze with flames.
Farther away, defense artillery dragged bullets like a chain of stars, cutting through the fog of war in the sky.
The rumbling sounds of explosions and the screams of soldiers could be heard from all directions in the city, making it impossible to tell which team had met with misfortune and which group of enemies had been completely wiped out.
Although the simulation mode had been turned off at this moment, the tense battlefield atmosphere still made Simon feel nervous and he tried to take deep breaths.
'Okay Simon, calm down, this is a game, this is a game, this is a game...'
"You are not on the battlefield in the Middle East. You are still in the western United States, in a single-family villa in San Jose, San Francisco..."
"This is a somatosensory cabin game. Take a deep breath, take a deep breath..."
Hiss——Hu——
While trying to calm down, Simon secretly felt a little amused.
You know, what have players always been pursuing when playing games?
reality.
Yes, especially in the category of somatosensory cabins, what players have always pursued is a sense of reality and immersion.
They always keep giving themselves psychological hints, reminding themselves, "This is not a game, treat it as a real adventure!"
But this time!
Things have changed!
Gu Sheng's powerful ability to create atmosphere, which he had demonstrated since Silent Hill PT, was fully utilized and released in this work!
Whether it is the sonata of guns and cannons!
The screams still continue!
Or maybe it was the environment that was like dark clouds covering the city!
And the constant vibrations of explosions coming from under my feet and the smell of gunpowder filling my nostrils!
Everything here!
Players don’t need to give any psychological hints!
Quite the opposite even!
Simon needs to constantly remind himself that this is just a game and that the real environment he is in is still safe. Only in this way can he effectively relax his nervous emotions and proceed with the game smoothly!
"The bridge is clear! Keep going! Move, move!"
"We have to hurry to Landmark 3487-2!"
"Quick! Quick! Quick! Move forward!"
“…”
The officer's rough roar could be heard in the earphone.
Yes, now they are not only stuck in the quagmire of war in a broad sense, but also in the narrow sense of landmark 3487-2, their Porcupine tanks are also stranded in the muddy land.
Now they needed to rush to the landmark, build defenses around the Porcupine, and repair the tanks.
However!
Just as they had crossed the bridge full of craters and shattered debris, they were about to get off the bridge!
Bang!
A slight crisp sound was heard from the front right.
Simon watched his teammate who was moving forward side by side with him. In an instant, he seemed to have lost all his strength. He staggered, then fell to the ground with a thud, and his body rolled far away.
"There's an ambush! Engage the enemy! Engage the enemy!"
The shouts in the headset exploded instantly.
"There are enemies in front of you on the right! Take cover!"
"Fight back! Two o'clock! Fight back!"
"Paul! Lead your men to clear the building on the right! We need to keep moving forward!"
“…”
I knew it!
Simon cursed inwardly helplessly, but had no choice but to lead the three brothers in his team under the cover of his teammates' firepower, and quickly moved to the back door of the building on the right and turned on his night vision goggles.
but!
This is Golden Wind's game after all.
In the games that Gu Sheng personally directed, the four words "I knew it" didn't always work.
Simon did predict that in this level, his team would need to go deep behind enemy lines and clear out the enemies hiding in the buildings.
But he didn't predict that -
"Tanks? Huh? Blow up the fucking tanks? Four of them?!"
That’s right!
Just as their team passed through the building, instructions came from above again -
According to satellite map monitoring, there are now four tanks belonging to Al-Assad, which are about to pass through the bridge to their west and attack the friendly forces stationed in the target area.
The mission of their rescue team is to kill all four tanks when they pass the bridge!
Simon felt as if he had become Benboerba——
ah?
I?
Simon pointed at the people in his own team.
One, two, three...eight.
Eight people take on four tanks.
Hey guys, have you never seen a tank, or do you have some cognitive bias towards carbon-based organisms?
"I'm not Superman, how can I handle four tanks? There's a bug in this mission... Hey? What's this?"
Complaining right now!
Suddenly, Simon walked out of the small bungalow and saw his teammates surrounding a wooden ammunition box in the yard.
"What?"
Simon saw this and walked up.
In the ammunition box, there was a top-heavy weapon that looked like a PLUS version of a rocket launcher, lying quietly in the weapon box.
It looks like these should be the enemy's weapons before, but now that the enemy has been wiped out by them, the weapons are in their hands.
"This is……"
Seeing this, Simon reached out and took the oversized rocket launcher out of the ammunition box.
FGM-148 anti-tank missile!
Also known as the Javelin Missile, it is an anti-tank missile that uses an infrared focal plane array seeker and fully automatic guidance. It is mainly used to accurately destroy various tanks and armored vehicles. Portability is its greatest feature, and it can be shoulder-fired by a single soldier.
Wow——groove——
In fact, before this, Simon had already been impressed by the dazzling equipment in this work.
Whether it is a wide variety of standard weapons with different versions.
It is still fixed-point support, and you can call for air support for detection and strike.
Even tactical equipment such as grenades, stun grenades, and night vision goggles.
The variety of weapons and equipment is overwhelming, and it can be said that people can fully indulge in the addiction of experiencing modern warfare weapons!
And now!
You told me that in addition to all that gear and guns, I can also fire javelins?!
"Hou-li crab-"
Listening to the instructions coming from the headset that the enemy is about to arrive.
Simon picked up the javelin and looked at the small electronic screen in front of him.
A white frame flashed on the electronic screen, and then the locking beacon automatically aimed at the tank that appeared on the bridge.
While the LOCK indicator in the upper right corner was flashing, a beeping indicator sound was heard!
And followed by a long beep!
Simon pressed the fire button.
Boom——!
A huge recoil force came, causing him to stagger two steps.
Looking up, I saw a missile as thick as a human arm shooting out of the barrel!
Afterwards, the second stage ignition started, and the Javelin missile instantly adjusted its posture in the air, with a booster flame jetting from the tail!
laugh--!!!
Suddenly fly into the sky!
Then, the missile with a tail flame turned around in the air and went straight down towards the tank below!
Whoosh——Boom!!!
"Me!!! F**K!!!"
Simon watched helplessly as the tank on the bridge exploded instantly, flames shot into the sky, and the huge force of the explosion directly blew off the tank's lid!
I couldn't help but scream!
This is fucking awesome, right?!
We've never played this before!
Without further ado!
With the help of his teammates, Simon reloaded his gun, raised the gun barrel and aimed at another approaching tank, grinning:
"Today, I will show you the power of modern warfare weapons!"
"Kangmang baby! Here comes the flying stick!"
Boom——Shh——
Missiles are coming!
At the same time, Captain Price, who was sitting opposite A Yin, also shouted!
“Hold on tight—!”
"R——P——G——!!!"
