Chapter 98: Real-time strategy games

Chen Mo clicked into "Legion Conquest", and soon, the game loaded.

This is a real-time strategy game, with a modern war theme, which can be seen from the loading interface of the game, all of which are aircraft, artillery, tanks, and all kinds of high-tech weapons that look very cool.

After entering the game, the structure of the entire game is also very clear, which are two modules: [Battle Mode] and [Online Battle].

To Chen Mo, this game is a bit similar to "Red Alert", but it is not the same. One is that the graphics are much better, and the other is that the specific weapon packaging varies greatly.

There are no apocalypse tanks, prism tanks, etc., in this game, and it is mainly a modern real tank, but there are also some fantasy future weapons.

Moreover, the game is not based on the Cold War, and there are no two camps, the Allies and the Soviet Union.

The world view of "Legion Conquest" is an alternate world view, which tells that after the Third World War, many countries were subverted, and the major armed forces formed many legions to fight in the melee.

And the campaign mode in this is that the player takes on the role of the leader of one of the legions to conquer the whole world.

There are many weapons and equipment in service, such as main battle tanks, bombers, etc., but they can be used by everyone, blurring the concept of the country, which should be for the sake of global promotion.

Chen Mo registered an account and began to challenge the campaign mode.

Overall,The quality of this game is very good,Novice guidance can also be done,The fly in the ointment is that the plot is a little too thin,Chen Mo played two levels,Basically, there is no main plot,It's nothing more than the commander lets you play wherever you want.,There's basically no sense of substitution in the plot.。

Of course, this should be a side effect of the alternate worldview and the vague concept of the country, and the planning of the plot is also limited.

However, this is a real-time strategy game after all, and the plot is not so important, so it did not affect its popularity.

"Legion Conquest" is also relatively rough in terms of operation mode, which is a bit similar to "Red Alert", and the operation interface, shortcut buttons, and mouse button function distribution are not very convenient in Chen Mo's opinion.

Selecting, moving, and attacking, these three operations are all done with the left mouse button, and the right mouse button only undertakes the operation of "deselecting", which makes Chen Mo very uncomfortable.

Chen Mo studied while playing the plot mode.

At this time, a student who looked like an Internet addicted teenager sat on the camera next to him, and he was bored during the start-up process, so he looked at Chen Mo's screen.

Chen Mo was manipulating a tank to crush the seven or eight soldiers in front, but these soldiers held machine guns and fired a "pop pop" shot, directly blowing up Chen Mo's tank.

"Nima!" Chen Mo was speechless, just like "Red Alert", there is no logic at all, why can this group of soldiers blow up my tank with machine guns? The armor of the tank is fake, huh?

The Internet addict boy next to him: "Newbie? ”

Chen Mo nodded: "En, novice." ”

The Internet addict boy said: "The tank here is quite rubbish, either you will explode troops in the early stage, or you will hold back the air force or super weapons in the later stage, and it is easy to lose all your money in the mid-term explosion of tanks." ”

Chen Mo was speechless: "Shouldn't modern war tanks be the main force?" ”

The Internet addict boy said, "Hey, I wonder too, but that's how this game is set up." ”

As the Internet addict boy spoke, he also opened "Legion Conquest" and began to search for online games.

The match was quite fast, and it took less than a minute to find the opponent. It's a four-player map, 1v1.

The Internet addicted teenager didn't have time to talk to Chen Mo, so he hurriedly concentrated on building buildings and exploding soldiers.

Chen Mo also paused his game and began to watch the Internet addicted teenager play.

Mining, building buildings, producing troops, pathfinding...... The Internet addict teenager has a lot of fun and is quite serious.

In the early stage, the other party directly exploded the army and caught the Internet addict boy off guard, but fortunately, he prepared more defense facilities and blocked several waves of offensives, and then the Internet addict boy successfully held back more than 30 lightning pilots, stole the opponent's base, and successfully turned the tables.

β€œyes!” The Internet addict teenager said with some excitement.

Chen Mo frowned and said, "This game, the balance is quite poor." ”

The Internet addict boy glanced at him: "This is not bad? This is already the best real-time strategy game. ”

Chen Mo said: "Three tanks can't beat more than 20 infantry, this is unreasonable." ”

The Internet addict boy said: "That can't be helped, this is already the most balanced real-time strategy game, and it's okay if you accept this setting." ”

Chen Mo asked, "Why don't you play role-playing games?" ”

The teenager said, "That's too tired. That kind of game has no technical content.,It's just a fight for time.,Whoever has more time is powerful.,It's like a real-time strategy game.,It's more than technology.。 ”

"Hmm." Chen Mo nodded.

The Internet addict boy said: "If you really love to play role-playing, in fact, playing the VR version is the best, including shooting, adventure, now it is the world of VR games." ”

"But games like real-time strategy and simulation management are basically on the PC side, because it is thankless to change to VR. And this kind of game doesn't take time, it may only take twenty or thirty minutes to play, and you can rest after playing, and you are not so tired. ”

Chen Mo said: "Does this game have a qualifying match? ”

The Internet addict boy was stunned: "Oh, there is a qualifying match, I just played a qualifying match." ”

Chen Mo asked, "So, ranking is the core fun of this game, right?" ”

The Internet addict boy nodded: "Yes." Play the campaign mode in the early stage, and then you will play ranked, so you have to fight with the master to be interesting. This is similar to the real arrangement, real-time strategy is like this, there is depth, and you may not be able to master it after studying it for a long time. ”

Chen Mo asked again: "Is there an offline competition?" ”

The Internet addict boy said: "Of course there is, the current offline competitions, the PC games are more popular real-time strategy games." There are a few star players in the major clubs, and they are all great gods. ”

The two chatted a few more words, and the Internet addict boy continued to open the qualifying match and fight.

Chen Mo studied the numerical settings of "Legion Conquest" again, and then left the Internet cafΓ©.

What surprised Chen Mo was that real-time strategy games, which had been cold for a long time in his previous life, were quite popular in this world.

If you think about it, it's actually understandable.

VR games have had a huge impact on PC games, but PC gamers have not all converted to VR game users. Compared with role-playing games, real-time strategy games are more fragmented and have better strategic depth, so they are still one of the mainstream game genres in parallel worlds.

As for MOBA? I don't even have a prototype!

Originally, Chen Mo was still a little hesitant, for him, it was a bit difficult to make role-playing games now, but now, he found a good transition.
