As a game that was only launched in March this year, "Ghost Hunter" was able to have such a fast public beta, mainly relying on the computing power provided by Zhong Shanze and the skilled team support brought by Hua Jingquan.
In order to quickly build the reputation of "Ghost Hunter", Qingyu Company has reached agreements with many game anchors to allow them to conduct live recordings during the public beta period.
For VR games in this era, viewers can freely choose two viewing modes, one is to watch visually from the host, and the other is to watch from a flat screen.
Among the anchors who have reached an agreement with Qingyu Company, there is a slightly famous anchor named "Xunyu". His real name is actually Xue Xunyu, who is famous for his excellent skills.
In fact, even if Qingyu Company doesn't look for him, Xue Xunyu will still experience this game. After all, there are gun battle online games and there are many horror online games, but the online game that combines the two, "Ghost Hunter" is still groundbreaking. It was his first time, so Xue Xunyu was very interested in it.
With the income from the live broadcast, and in order to show a better live broadcast picture, Xue Xunyu owns a VR game warehouse that is even more luxurious than the one in Dai Wenguan's company.
The exoskeleton armor in his VR game warehouse includes, in addition to a VR helmet, gloves, knee gloves, and foot gloves, a heartbeater that can sense human breathing.
In addition, this deluxe version of the VR game cabin can react accordingly according to the game progress, such as blowing air and spraying water, giving users a more realistic experience.
"Hello everyone, I believe you are not too unfamiliar with the game I am going to broadcast today. It is "Ghost Hunter", which was scolded by Zhang a few days ago. Today I will take you to experience this game."
"Ghost Hunter is currently in open beta, and you must have an invitation code to play. I signed a promotion agreement with Qingyu Company, so I got an invitation code directly."
What Xue Xunyu is talking about now has actually been mentioned to the audience during the preview live broadcast. The reason why he is saying it again now is just to prevent the sound in the live broadcast room from becoming silent while logging into the game.
After the account is successfully logged in, the first thing you see is the opening screen of the game "Ghost Hunter". In fact, this was already shown in the CG trailer of the game, and it is pretty much the same now as it was then.
Although "Ghost Hunter" is a VR game, the opening animation after entering the game still adopts a flat form with low immersion.
I saw a peaceful daily scene on the screen, but the various infrastructures lagged far behind the contemporary era. There were no flying cars floating in the sky, and there was no ubiquitous CR network. It was obviously the 21st century mentioned in the trailer.
A viewer in the live broadcast room said: "I am a person who studies the early 21st century, and I have to say that Qingyu Company has put a lot of effort into this research."
This is obviously nonsense. The memories in Zhong Shanze's mind cannot reach the real 22nd century. As long as you pick out some memories before entering the main god space, it will definitely be the most realistic scene in the early 21st century.
[We used to think that ghosts were just monsters in fantasy, but it wasn’t until the 21st century that we learned that they were just a special natural phenomenon. 】
When the narration appeared on the screen, scenes from this world-famous horror movie also appeared in flashes. Of course, they were all movies with copyright permission.
Then the camera began to move, switching from the city with people coming and going to a heavily guarded underground base. Everywhere inside and outside the base was heavily guarded. There were scientists coming and going inside, but no one was talking to each other the whole time. Only the machinery in the center of the field made an ominous noise.
[Dr. Costamond discovered this phenomenon and proved her experimental results to the world through a public trial of the Costamond instrument in 2012. 】
The scene shifted to a completely blue machine in the center of the venue. Needless to say, it was the Costamunde Instrument. It looked like a bud waiting to bloom, flickering with electric sparks from time to time.
[Some newspapers at the time claimed that this invention opened the door to a new world for mankind. This statement was not wrong, because it was the door to a new world of doomsday. 】
Now the scene moved from the laboratory to the press conference. The audience saw the ghost appearing along with the experiment and cheered in shock and celebration.
Then he returned to a city, and there were still the same people coming and going, but the sound of people moving and noisy had been replaced by the terrifying background music, making the scene a little ominous.
[On Halloween 2016, because Costamunde was opened and then failed to close, the end came, and the evil spirits destroyed all the old order. 】
One moment it was a crowded city, and the next second it suddenly changed. Cars were placed irregularly. Their owners either died miserably in the car with their eyes wide open, or they had already fled without a trace, and the sad and sad The fierce ghost floated on the street and pounced on everyone who had not had time to escape.
[And this is the past 34 years ago. Now I am narrating it to you as a veteran. I hope you will not forget this painful history and surpass it! 】
As the frightening music reached its climax, a hand covered with corpses stretched out with a bang, and behind the broken screen was the game hall.
"As you can see, as a player who has just entered, except for the newcomer training level, all other functions are blocked. I must complete the newcomer training level before I can start the official game. However, in the official version, this can be skipped. pass."
The newbie training level is divided into hunter training and ghost training. You can freely decide the order of selection. Xue Xunyu, out of consideration of leaving surprises for later, first conducts hunter training. He believes that most of the content in this level is not much different from other gun battle games. Many differences.
This is indeed the case in the hunter basic training level. Operations such as moving, rolling, aiming, and changing bullets are very similar to ordinary gunfight online games.
If there is any difference in this level, it is that you have to consider the top and bottom when shooting. After all, the fierce ghost can pass through the wall openly without buying any plug-ins.
After the basic training level is over, it's the special training level. There is no actual combat with ghosts here, only the hunter's special skills need to be trained.
The first special level of training is the function of converting ordinary bullets into magnetic bullets. The technical terminology in the game calls this "coating".
There are also two small levels of coating. The first is to use special processing tools to transform ordinary bullets into magnetic bullets that can repel or even kill fierce ghosts.
This is actually a mini game that considers reactions. A stopwatch will appear in other parts of the line of sight. The player must press the confirmation button when the stopwatch pointer reaches a specific area, so that the coating is successful.
The second is to use the magnetic equipment on your body to forcibly coat ordinary bullets into magnetic bullets without processing abrasive tools.
The second special training level is to use the repairer's medical magnetic shield. This is also a mini-game for players, no different from coating.
