A real cheat was blocked, and the game industry was rectified with a backhand

Although it was painful, Baofeng Entertainment had no choice but to follow suit, like a gambler with red eyes.

Skin pack? Free!

Pass? Free!

Even the rule that the CP points earned after completing the first season pass are just enough to buy the second season pass has been changed.

What should be given has been given, and what should be changed has been changed.

BGN, a well-known paid media in the industry, suddenly published an article.

"Vicious competition is an overdraft of the gaming industry's potential"

It's not explicitly stated throughout the article, but the implication is that it's dissing Naughty Cat.

However, this article failed to put Naughty Cat in the whirlpool of public opinion, but instead made Naughty Cat more famous.

After all, the players really benefited from it.

[Please overdraw a little more of this potential, thank you]

[It’s so funny. Naughty Cat forced the industry to improve, which is why many companies now behave conscientiously. How can this be considered vicious competition? ]

[This is called healthy competition, really healthy competition]

[BGN Daily Sima, just get used to it]

The turmoil outside the field did not affect Naughty Cat.

But Lin Mo felt a little regretful. Wasn’t this opponent a little bit difficult?

Baofeng Entertainment actually followed suit, which was completely unexpected, and it acted very quickly on the same day that Naughty Cat announced the pre-order benefits.

If it was a few days later, the reputation of Naughty Cat's gift-giving campaign would have spread, and Warzone 9 would have been completely at a disadvantage.

I can only say that, as expected of one of the established large companies, it has both quick response and determination to take drastic measures.

Since the winner cannot be determined outside the game, let the quality of the game speak for itself.

In the void confrontation between players and manufacturers on both sides, the time came to the end of October.

"Tomorrow is the day when Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is released. Are you going to buy it or not?"

Liu Xianming looked left and right in the dormitory, looking at his roommates with some dissatisfaction.

As a die-hard fan who has supported Naughty Cat since the CSGO era, I have bought at least 70% to 80% of Naughty Cat's games, if not all of them.

As for the choice between Naughty Cats and Warzone 9?

Is there any need to choose?

As early as the first day of pre-sale, he paid for the game without hesitation, and then waited anxiously for the server to be launched.

Today is the 29th, and tomorrow is the official launch day.

Looking around, whether it was Zhang Feng, with whom I had a good relationship, or the other roommates A and B.

They all looked a little embarrassed and hesitant.

Seeing them like this, Liu Xianming asked with a somewhat unfriendly look: "Hey, no way, you are not planning to buy "Warzone 9"?"

His eyes stopped at Zhang Feng, who looked a little embarrassed. He coughed and said, "You know, I've been a fan of the War Zone series for many years, so..."

"I know that. You were addicted to playing Counter-Terrorism Special Forces." Liu Xianming rolled his eyes. "I don't know who was cursing while playing."

After saying this, Zhang Feng touched his nose, looking a little embarrassed.

indeed.

I buy new works every year, but I regret it every time I buy them.

If I don’t play it, I feel very addicted, but if I play it, I will curse it non-stop.

Although Liu Xianming introduced me to CSGO and I became a staunch fan of Naughty Cat, the two situations are a little different.

CSGO is a free game. Although I didn't trust Naughty Cat, a game company I had never heard of and a newcomer, downloading it is just a matter of spending some time and taking up some memory.

Now, both games require money to buy

But let's say you buy Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

There is still some distrust.

Zhang Feng coughed lightly and said, "It's not that I don't trust Naughty Cat, after all, the IP of Call of Duty is too young. If Naughty Cat can accumulate more experience for another year, I will definitely abandon Warzone!"

Liu Xianming rolled his eyes and scolded with a smile: "Since you have also consumed so many Naughty Cats' genuine games, I won't scold you. But the question is, do you think Naughty Cats' technical ability and development experience are really bad?"

Hearing this, Zhang Feng obviously hesitated.

After hesitating for a long time, he said in a low voice with doubt: "It shouldn't be bad. But it can't be better than Baofeng Entertainment, right? After all, it is also a big company that has been making shooting games for more than ten years."

Liu Xianming snorted and said, "If what you said before was a little convincing, Naughty Cat can even make a large-scale game like Cyberpunk 2077 now. What else can't we do? Besides, Naughty Cat has clearly stated that only pre-orders will get the first season pass, so don't regret it later."

After hearing this, roommate A shrugged and said, "Anyway, I've already bought Warzone 9. As for regretting it, I don't think I'll regret it."

Roommate B also nodded.

Zhang Feng looked very hesitant and struggled, but he finally made a decision: "I'll buy Warzone 9 first. I'll buy Call of Duty when my part-time job pays me, and then we can play together."

"Oh, based on experience, you will regret it sooner or later and feel bad for the money you wasted."

"Shouldn't it be possible?"

The next day is the weekend.

The four people in the dormitory got up early and had a delicious breakfast at the snack street near the school, which was a real luxury.

After all, today is a special day, and we might play until the evening.

A breakfast that can satisfy your hunger is still very necessary.

When I returned to the dormitory, the first-day patches of the update had been completed before I left.

Liu Xianming looked at the three traitorous roommates and asked, "Are you really not coming? The preseason multiplayer mode is free these days."

Zhang Feng chuckled, threw a pack of cigarettes to his friend, and said, "You play first, and the three of us will experience the multiplayer mode of Warzone 9 first."

"Okay, I'll ignore you then."

Having said that, he put on his headphones and opened Call of Duty.

After entering the game, the playable content is divided into three major parts: story campaign, multiplayer mode, and the yet-to-be-opened battle royale-style gameplay Call of Duty - Warzone.

"Let's play the multiplayer mode first to get a feel for it."

I didn't rush to play the story campaign, but clicked into the multiplayer mode first, and there was a brief tutorial process.

How to switch weapons, how to run, how to slide, how to crouch, etc.

If we talk about the first impression, it is that the character's mobility is really strong.

It's not just about mobility, I also simply tried the feel of controlling the gun.

Although there are obvious differences in the feel of various firearms, the common point is that they are easy to use.

There are very few situations where a novice has great difficulty controlling the gun and completely misses the target.

Whether it is the hip-fire accuracy, the aiming speed, combined with the maneuverability and shorter ttk.

You can feel the design concept of the game through a simple trial play - it's awesome!

Whether it's the thrill brought by speed and body movements, or the excellent feel of shooting, the refreshing feeling of hitting is the same.

Can't wait to start the official game, click to queue for multiplayer mode.

In multiplayer mode, there are so many gameplay modes that you can’t count how many there are at a glance.

Since I can’t keep up, I won’t watch it anymore.

Just click to start.

It didn't take long for the game to begin.

The map is Killing Lodge, and the mode is 5v5 to occupy the stronghold.

On a not-so-large map, strongholds will randomly appear at several refresh points.

As long as the friendly forces occupy the stronghold, the score will continue to increase, and the one who reaches 250 points first wins.

The game started, a helicopter flew over the sky, and one by one the players slid down the rope ladder, marching forward in a handsome attacking formation.

The game officially begins.

Liu Xianming was still not used to the gameplay of this game, and was still advancing in the way he was used to when he played games before, by aiming and searching for points.

Looking at the teammates again, each one of them was like monkeys, some climbing over obstacles, some running wildly and sliding, rushing towards the refreshed stronghold.

Seeing this, Liu Xianming also abandoned his previous cautious step-by-step playing style in CSGO.

Let’s go!

Before I reached the stronghold, I saw my teammate pull out a grenade from his crotch and throw it over.

After a bang, the first head appeared.

The second enemy was obviously not used to the way the game was played, and stood there at a loss.

Seeing this, Liu Xianming raised his gun and shot without hesitation!

A refreshing and exciting sound effect sounded, like the sound of a bullet drilling into the enemy's body, which was very enjoyable to listen to.

When the enemy falls, there is a momentary knockdown sound effect and small yellow words pop up on the screen.

+50xp Annihilate!

Then, an enemy on the left side of the screen recklessly ran out of cover.

Liu Xianming used a precise sweep to divert the attack and killed the second player who was advancing recklessly.

Although his shooting skills are not as good as Zhang Feng's, he is also a hardcore CSGO player. Although the feel of controlling the gun is different, the multiplayer mode of "Call of Duty" does not require very good gun controlling skills.

All you need is a good positioning ability!

+100xp Annihilate!

Double kill!

head shot!

The sound, the picture, the performance, the words that pop up.

Everything is for positive feedback, and the accumulated positive feedback brings unparalleled sense of satisfaction.

Combined together, there is a feeling of being addicted to shooting.

He couldn't wait to see more enemies, so he poured out all the bullets in his gun to get more pleasure.

But he was not so lucky next time. A new enemy rushed over and Liu Xianming, who was already low on health, was killed with just one shot from a shotgun.

Not only did I not feel upset, but I felt my hands getting warm.

Just when he was about to light a cigarette and continue killing enemies while the resurrection bar was reading, he found that it was completely unnecessary.

There is almost no time for resurrection, just throw yourself directly into the battlefield and continue fighting!

The whole game seems to be announcing something to players who are accustomed to competitive shooting games.

Forget the heavy death penalty, forget the pre-aim tactics, forget all that!

I'm not that voluptuous bitch.

It’s all about killing, it’s all about fun!

Liu Xianming was indeed very happy.

The two sides went back and forth, taking turns to occupy the stronghold.

A full 15 minutes of a game passed by in the blink of an eye.

It’s a pity that they lost with a score of 243:250.

If you lose in CSGO 14:16, you will be furious at this time. If it is a random game, the team voice will already be talking at this time.

"No, buddy."

If it is a black game among roommates, then at this time they are also clearing out the traitors, and if they are holding back the meeting, it will often make the atmosphere in the dormitory very stiff.

But now, after the narrow defeat, there is no feeling of frustration at all, as if it is completely unimportant.

The word "failure" didn't last long, and the game had already started queuing for the next round.

In this game, the map is Nuclear Town, which is still a smaller map.

But this time the way to play is to occupy points.

There are three points on the map that can be occupied. After occupying the points, you will continue to gain points. The winning conditions are the same.

The style of this map is different from that of Killing Lodge. It is an outdoor map with bright sunshine.

There are two dilapidated buses in the middle of the map, with a two-story building on each side. Mannequins can also be seen everywhere on the map.

On one side, there are brightly colored graffiti everywhere, and on the other side, there are old, rusty cars, yellow sand all over the ground, and tumbleweeds flying when the wind blows.

There is a different kind of artistic beauty.

The map's structure is simpler and more balanced in design, and because it's smaller in size the pace is faster.

You can rush in or hide in the corner as an old silver coin. At the same time, there are several points that can cross the central axis of the map, giving the sniper rifle room to play, but not making the big sniper too strong.

Soon, players from both sides were engaged in a tense and exciting battle.

Soon, the battle became fierce.

No one seemed to care about the outcome of the game, everyone was just rushing towards one point.

In an instant, this place turned into a meat grinder.

The sky was filled with grenades, thermite, and clay bombs.

The sounds of submachine guns, rifles, shotguns, and sniper rifles intersected each other.

Everyone was so bloodthirsty that there were no old silver coins on the map. Everyone was so bloodthirsty that they rushed towards this place.

"Cool!"

Liu Xianming was so excited that his forehead was sweating and he felt hot!

He resurrected again, this time switched to a shotgun and rushed straight to the target.

Win or lose? It doesn't matter!

But this time, I was running on the road.

The mouse accidentally floated up into the sky, and he saw a missile with wings flying straight towards him.

In an instant, there was an explosion, and his character and the teammates who had just been resurrected were torn to pieces by missiles.

"Ah?! No, what's this? Everyone is using the fighting method, why do you have missiles?"

Liu Xianming was stunned. This time he did not skip the kill replay. He wanted to see how he died.

I saw a player on the opposite side kill one person with a sniper rifle, and an icon lit up in the kill streak reward column in the lower right corner.

The name is cruise missile.

After using it, the character took out something that looked like a tablet and tapped it with the stylus to start it.

After the screen went black for a brief moment, the perspective changed directly to that of a cruise missile, falling rapidly towards the nuclear bomb town.

When it is about to land, you can see the wings of the shell ejected. Use the mouse to control the high-speed moving missile and you can control the bombing target at will.

At the same time, all hostile players on the map are marked with a bright red dot.

Two of the red dots were close to each other, obviously he and another teammate who was blown away.

"Fuck, are kill streak rewards this cool?"

These words suddenly rang in Liu Xianming's ears. He shuddered violently, took off his headphones and turned around to look.

The three teammates were now surrounding him, looking at his game screen in shock.

"Fuck, what are you three doing behind me if you're not playing games? You scared me!"

Zhang Feng looked a little embarrassed, touched his nose, and said, "It's still being updated."

Liu Xianming asked in confusion: "Update? Didn't it download the first-day patch when I went to have breakfast?"

As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Feng's screen.

It says that the shader file is being downloaded.

There are 20GB left.

Liu Xianming asked in surprise: "No, does this kind of thing have to be updated in real time in the game with this super slow network speed?"

Zhang Feng's face became even more embarrassed, and he stammered, "Maybe Baofeng Entertainment's habits are different from those of other manufacturers."

"Oh. Then tell me again, what do you think of Naughty Cat's level?"
