Unlike the wilderness dartsman, in the sandbox mode of the last survivor, there are not so many plot tasks that can be explored, more of which are similar to the gameplay of simulation management, of course, you can also choose to explore the entire world on your own.

But the most important thing is to simulate the gameplay, and when Chuhe and the team produced it, a gameplay element was deliberately added, that is, the ecological element.

The zombies in the game are limited. In the absence of new humans or other creatures, the zombies can be killed.

But this is only theoretically speaking, after all, it exists in virus infection and attack infection.

It can be said that it is the base construction business model, which is the main gameplay in the sandbox mode, and this gameplay is also mainly to match the multiplayer mode.

There are many games without joining the multiplayer mode, and for a game, it is not that joining the multiplayer mode will definitely make him more fun.

For example, Sony’s God of War series, and QD’s rainstorm, these series are not very suitable for joining the multiplayer mode. The former is because there can only be one Kui bald, while the latter is simply a game theme not suitable for multiplayer mode.

Some games even forcibly add multiplayer mode, but it seems like a superfluous game, which leads to a decline in the evaluation of the game, but it is undeniable that a good multiplayer mode has a huge impact on a game.

Because of the introduction of multiplayer mode, it is very popular, and even become a mainstream game, such as Microsoft's exclusive Halo series, and the famous Call of Duty.

Players have always said how appealing and exciting the story of Call of Duty is, but in fact, Call of Duty is really big and it is mainly because of the multiplayer mode.

And almost the vast majority of Call of Duty players purchase Call of Duty, not for his single-player story mode, but purely for the multiplayer mode.

This is true for Activision’s Call of Duty series, including EA’s battlefields, and games like Need for Speed. What’s really interesting is not the single-player story mode, but the multiplayer experience where people play against each other.

However, although it is prepared for multiplayer mode, the original intention of the sandbox mode game production team is to let players understand how difficult it is to survive in this doomsday situation, and leave the town as a wilderness. Independent teams, beware of being targeted by other organizations, carefully search for materials, complete bounty missions to obtain equipment, and resist natural disasters and zombies.

But now it seems that everyone has a misunderstanding about this model!

Looking at a topic that has become a hot topic on Weibo, Chu He, who has just signed a part of the game, is a little stunned.

‘If you want to live well in the end, you have to farm first! ’

‘What firefly organization, what government army, what hunter is just fooling around, the disaster of the virus has not been resolved, and the political ambitions are still being pursued when the internal and external turmoil is overthrown, and the farming and survival should be the king at the moment! ’

‘Opening up wasteland for farming, enclosing chickens, and producing self-rescue. ’

‘Eliminate individualism, fully carry forward the spirit of sacrificing the ego to complete the ego, hard work and hard work, even if it is at the risk of life, we must collect the seeds of crops! Even the 12-hour shift must protect the safety of farmland, so that everyone in the base will have food for the next spring! ’

With the end of the game's main line, Chinese players who are happy to discover their new gameplay from the plain, soon began to find new fun in the sandbox mode.

It has to be said that for the games of the simulation business type, Chinese players can always play a flower.

For example, in the era of the classic RTS game Empire under Microsoft, the normal gameplay should be to strive to develop its own civilization.

However, in the view of some Chinese players in the Empire era, this gameplay is simply low to explode. After solving the problem of food and clothing in the game, they will build a neat row of houses, reclaim the farmland and raise sheep and sheep, sometimes in order to break through The upper limit of the sheep will also specifically let AI take the sheep away, and then use the game mechanism BUG to send the troops back to grab the sheep and realize the idea of ​​full goats.

There was also the famine of the Tianhe network, which was originally a survival-themed game, but some players opened a chicken farm in the game and engaged in alien breeding projects.

In the sandbox mode of the last survivors, the unique base construction system, plus the system of absorbing and hiring NPCs, completely let players free their brains.

Noting the occurrence of this phenomenon, both Tianhe Network and EA feel that this is a good marketing opportunity. On the one hand, it actively guides the topic, and on the other hand, it also increases the promotion of the last survivor game.

Although it has been more than half a month since the game went online, but because there are no strong opponents, the survivors still maintain the position of hegemony in the sales list of many countries around the world.

At the same time, the game also announced information about the new multiplayer mode, and the confrontation mode team PVE mode will be added to the game.

In the multiplayer confrontation, players will choose hunters, fireflies, and government forces to conduct a three-party confrontation, while on the PVE, it is much simpler, that is, choose one of the three parties to join the squad mission.

And each camp has its own unique mission.

Of course, in addition to this game there is a unique mode, the base construction mode.

Players can enter a public mirror or private battle with a maximum of 10 players. In each mirror battle, there is an independent base that is different from government troops, hunters, and fireflies.

The player must protect the base from fireflies, hunters, and government forces~www.NovelMTL.com~Of course, the difficulty is adjusted according to the number of people in the current battle situation.

After joining the open game, the player can choose whether to stay in the game. If you choose to stay in the game, after the game has stayed for 10 people, it will be locked out to prohibit players from staying outside. However, if there is no online game for more than three days, it will automatically Determine whether the player in the battle is dead, and at the same time initiate a vote to other players in the battle to remove the player's list.

Of course, players can also create a private battle, but the difference between private battles and public battles is that the personnel to join are fixed. Only friends can invite each other to join the battle.

Almost this is a large PVE model, plus business simulation.

This was previously thought of by Chu He among the big darts in the wilderness, but whether it will make the player interesting is still a question.

After all, many gameplay sounds very interesting, but in fact the player's experience is not good; while some gameplay, it sounds very boring but after the player has a game experience, they will like this gameplay.

As for the success or failure of a game, based on the above summary, it is basically a hindsight.
