Chapter 317 Really fragrant or disturbed?
On June 10, a promotional video of new games appeared on the Weiguang Game Platform as usual.
What surprised many players was that the Weiguang Game Platform launched this time was actually a simulation strategy game called "Star Tinder"!
During this period, with the popularity of "The Legend of the Armor Plan", the Weiguang Game has become well-known to many players.
Although games such as "The Guardian of Zodiac" and "The Demon in the World" are also very famous, "The Black Armor Plan" obviously reflects the strength of Weiguang Studio. The super popular potential of this game has made Weiguang Studio the same popularity as many major manufacturers in the world.
After all, whether it is a stand-alone or an online game, only by making super popular games can one stand among the top game manufacturers.
Before, Weiguang Studio had never produced simulation strategy games, so while players were very excited about it, they also became more suspicious.
...
The promotional video was originally the logo of Weiguang Studio. After the logo gradually disappeared, the black screen continued.
If you look closely, you will find that some star points appear gradually at the edge of the black screen, which are endless universe space.
Suddenly, the brightness of several stars in the distance suddenly increased, and an interstellar fleet suddenly passed by the camera. Soon, the universe in the camera returned to silence.
The dark universe is like death itself.
Meanwhile, subtitles begin to appear on the screen.
"In the future, human beings have finally mastered the coveted interstellar voyage technology."
"But the invasion of alien civilizations has put the earth in a catastrophe."
The fleet sailed far away in the endless universe. In the dark and vast universe, this fleet was like a few grains of sand in the desert, pitifully small.
"A Starfleet escaped the hunting of alien civilizations because of long-distance voyage exploration, but they have lost contact with the Earth world and can only escape into endless space."
"Or it is possible that this interstellar fleet is the only remaining fire species in the universe for humans on Earth!"
As the camera turned, a red planet gradually appeared in the camera.
A blue airflow ejected from the starship and slowly landed on the planet.
"At one time when refueling, the fleet was suddenly besieged by the indigenous Zergs on the planet, and the starship was severely damaged."
On the screen, a sea of insects surged in the sky, like a tide, rushing towards the firepower network of the human army!
Electromagnetic cannons, rail cannons, particle beams... humans are also fighting back frantically. The powerful firepower exploded into deep pits on the ground, and the battlefield instantly turned into scorched earth, but the Zerg army continued to rush forward fearlessly. Even though a large number of Zerg warriors were instantly melted in the human firepower network, more Zergs broke through the human blockade line!
"Humans temporarily repelled the Zerg's attack, but the interstellar spacecraft was severely damaged and the existing conditions were almost impossible to repair."
"And, in subsequent observations, humans discovered a panic fact."
"The star of this planet is already at the end of life and is about to become a red giant. Helium flashes may occur at any time inside. Once the helium flashes occur, the entire planet, including all humans on the planet, will be swallowed by the flames!"
"In order to preserve the last spark of human beings in the universe, the human commander must make every decision, because any wrong decision may ruin the entire human civilization..."
As the camera turned, the game screen appeared.
On the surface of the red planet, human bases are constantly expanding, mining farms, refineries, arsenals... One by one, the buildings are constantly rising, and countless transportation teams are shuttled back and forth between the buildings, busy like ants.
In a mining site, resource mining is in full swing. Suddenly, the entire mine collapsed, and a huge sand worm suddenly appeared, directly crashing half of the entire mine, and the transport truck on the ground was swallowed by it in one bite!
Humans began to organize counterattacks quickly, and various small spacecraft, heavy mechas, and all-terrain combat vehicles quickly surrounded them and quickly launched attacks on the sandworms.
The camera turned and turned to the distant space. The planet's sun gradually filled the entire camera. The dark red stars seemed to burst into deadly helium flashes at any time.
The camera gradually darkened, and finally, the name of the game and the release date appeared on the screen.
"Star Fire, June 17."
...
The content of this promotional video is not complicated, and there is no suspense like other promotional videos. It basically explains the overall background of the entire game clearly.
Moreover, the promotional video did not deliberately make those big scenes. Some scenes were indeed better-looking, such as the war between humans and Zergs, but these scenes did not occupy the entire promotional video for a long time and were not the mainstream to be expressed.
This game does not promote the big scenes of interstellar war, but instead focuses on reflecting an atmosphere.
Loneliness, despair, darkness, but there is only a trace of hope.
In the interstellar voyage, the human interstellar fleet is like a swimming fish in the vast universe, so small.
In the war between humans and Zergs, those high-tech weapons can only barely block the Zerg's offensive. In the face of the vast sea of insects, humans have a deep sense of powerlessness.
In the subsequent construction process, although the scale of human bases on this planet became larger and larger, once the camera was farther away, it continued to rise from the planet, and finally looked at the dark red sun hanging high in the sky, which immediately set off a sense of despair.
On the surface, humans have established bases on the planet, and are in a prosperous scene, but once they look at the scale of the universe, there is no difference between humans and ants, and the helium flash that the sun may burst at any time has even enveloped humans in the crisis of destruction.
After watching the promotional video, players immediately became interested in the game.
There are actually not many similar simulation strategy games, and there are also science fiction themes, but "Star Tinder" obviously has its own style.
Although the game content of "Star Fire" takes place on a planet, it also focuses on the entire universe. The ultimate goal of human beings is to escape from the planet and escape into the vast space. Moreover, the whole game gives people a very urgent feeling.
Judging from the content in the promotional video, the game is also very playable and has rich content. In addition to common construction and climbing technology trees, the game will also face many choices, and there are elements to fight against the Zerg.
As a strategy simulation game, its content is already very complete and its style is very distinct. As for whether it is fun or not, it will have to wait until the game is online.
Strategy simulation games are not a popular type, so many players no longer pay attention to them after watching the promotional video of "Star Fire". However, for those who prefer strategy games, this is undoubtedly the most anticipated masterpiece in the near future.
"The Weiguang Game Platform is about to release a new game, "Star Fire"!"
"I'm also paying attention. Judging from the promotional video, it's pretty good, and the game at Weiguang Studio is still trustworthy."
"This kind of game depends on the specific gameplay. It's useless to just make the promotional videos."
"Let's see it when it is released."
...
On June 12, another news broke in the game industry.
Weiguang Studio's first console, GS1, will be released at the same time with "Star Tinder" on June 17, and this console will support most games on the Weiguang platform!
In other words, many classic works including "The Devil in the World", "Resident Evil", "Zodiac Guardian" and other classic works can be played on the gs1 console!
Moreover, any game you bought on the PC version of Weiguang Game Platform does not need to be purchased again. You can continue to play directly on the GS1 console, and the relevant archive data can also be fully shared!
As for the specific price of this console, it will be officially announced at the subsequent Yunuo Technology press conference.
The previous news did not cause much sensation, but this last article made the players instantly excited and discussed it!
The players unanimously expressed: Conscience!
In fact, Microsoft did this in Zhong Ming's previous life. As early as 2016, Microsoft launched the xbox play anywhere project, which is a cross-platform and cross-device sharing game project. This feature will allow players who purchase xbox games to get the pc version of the game. On the contrary, players who purchase pc version of the game can also get the xbox version of the game.
Of course, this function only supports digital versions of games and does not support CD versions.
In other words, under the same account, not only can cross-platform game progress and achievements be synchronized, but the dlc, props and season tickets purchased by players can also be shared on both platforms. Moreover, the price of the game itself will not be higher than that of ordinary games.
But this project was not promoted in Zhong Ming’s previous life, and no one did this in the current world.
The reason is very simple. There are too few manufacturers like Microsoft that both host and PC!
Like Sony in Zhong Ming’s previous life, Nintendo basically made games exclusively on its own console and basically won’t go to the PC platform; and those channel dealers on PC will not get involved in consoles.
It’s not that they don’t want to do it, they are really unable to do it. It would be nice to have one of the two major fields of hosting and PC, so how could they be so greedy that they both take up.
The world is similar. Host manufacturers are trying their best to exclusively sell hosts, but the gaming channels on PC cannot create game hosts, so there is no way to talk about data interoperability between PC and hosts.
For game developers, the same game is used to use consoles and PC channels to make more money. Different channels are absolutely impossible to share, otherwise wouldn’t it be a loss.
Therefore, after Weiguang Studio announced this news, those loyal players of Weiguang Games had an additional reason to buy the gs1 console.
All games on the PC can be transferred to the console, and the data is completely interconnected, leaving only a large amount of game money.
As for whether you still need a host with a PC? Many people need it.
Because as a simple game console, the price of the console is definitely much cheaper than that of the PC.
Just like Zhong Ming's previous life, the most expensive Xbox X is only more than 3,000 yuan, and if you want to use a more mid-range 2060 graphics card machine, it costs about 7,000 yuan. Even if the top PC can crush the host in configuration, the price will definitely exceed several times.
Moreover, there are very few host failures, which is very worry-free to use. In addition to the domestic PC-based system, players in most developed regions abroad prefer to play games with hosts, while PCs are only used for office work.
Weiguang Studio is now gradually getting involved in some games with higher configurations, such as "Resident Evil". Although many players can run on their computers, they can run hard and experience it is not good. If the GS1 console can be sold at a relatively cheap price, for the long-term consideration, many players are still willing to buy one.
...
On June 14, Yunuo Technology held a new equipment launch conference.
In addition to disclosing the price of the new host, there is another important content in this press conference, which is to introduce the latest elite controllers that match Yunuo Technology with GS1 hosts!
At the press conference, Lin Xiaoguang used the "world's best game controller" very domineeringly to describe elite controllers, full of confidence.
At the same time, Lin Xiaoguang also spent a lot of time introducing the new technological innovations in this handle, including touch pad, trigger key stroke adjustment, magnetic adsorption key cap, etc., which made the ceiling pop.
Although there were a lot of "disturbances" on the barrage when the price of the elite handle came out, the unique shape and new technology of this handle also left a deep impression on many players.
Of course, the most important thing is the cost of these devices.
gs1 s version host (with normal handle): 2499
gs1 x version host (with elite handle): 4999
gs1 version elite handle: 999
The final price is not known whether it is time to "really fragrant" or "disturbing". The price of the version host is really fragrant, and the x version host is disturbing... The price of the version host is basically the relatively low among the current hosts. Although everyone knows it is a low-end version, it is completely fine to run a game like "Resident Evil" smoothly. If you just want to try it out, the cost-effectiveness is very high.
The x version of the host is basically the most expensive among all hosts, but it also includes an elite controller of 999. According to Lin Xiaoguang's introduction, this host is indeed the most configured. The mainstream 3A masterpieces on the market can run smoothly at high frame rates. There is nothing wrong with praising yourself "the strongest host".
At this point, Weiguang Studio's layout on the entire host field has been very clear.
The biggest advantages of gs1 hosts are: first, the host PC game sharing and data interoperability, and second, the host's pricing strategy is good. GS1 S takes the low-price route, GS1 X takes the high-end route, and Lin Xiaoguang checks, so the quality control of the equipment is definitely fine.
Moreover, the gs1 host is also considered to be a gs1 emulator. Players who have bought the gs1 emulator can directly take out the gs1 host. They only need to buy an additional controller to play directly on the TV.
As for what is going on with this console and controller? We will have to wait until the first batch of teenage mice have played with it before we know it.
