Game Making: Start By Healing the Player

On September 5, "Assassin's Creed" was officially launched.

Many players who have experienced the trial version before, entered the game for the first time.

The forum is also filled with a real fragrance.

And as long as you have played the content of the previous demo version, the game record can be saved without having to start all over again.

Song Ren, who entered the game again, was also a little excited. After all, he was finally about to start the first assassination gameplay in the game.

Song Ren manipulated Ezio, carefully mixed in the crowd, and moved little by little with the crowd around him, heading towards the Basilica of the Holy Cross.

The soldiers standing at the door were not too vigilant, but showed a very relaxed attitude, obviously not thinking that anyone could come here to make trouble.

In "Assassin's Creed", compared to some of the levels and gameplay in the previous life.

Chen Xu has been strengthened and some changes have been made, the first is the AI ​​of the game.

In fact, it is in the original version, such as the game of throwing coins. Ordinary guards will run to pick up ten dollars when they see the ground, but some elite soldiers will not go.

At the same time, it also enhances the expressiveness of some guards in the game, such as ordinary guards, the observation power is not so rich.

For high-level guards, they are much more observant and look around.

And apart from the guards guarding the gate, they are not all stuck in place like a wooden pole, but will patrol around.

Of course, this is mainly also taking into account the performance in the game, enhancing the player's immersion, and at the same time giving the player a reason why the assassination was successful but others did not find it.

This is also an essential feature of general stealth gameplay.

After all, if the character can't act, then there will be a very embarrassing situation.

That is, the two enemies turned their backs to the player, and then the player assassinated one of the enemies, but the other one was stupidly unaware.

From the perspective of immersive experience, this is very unreasonable and is usually questioned by players. After all, are all the enemies deaf and blind?

When you kill your comrade in front of you, you still don't know anything?

And making the enemy too smart is not enough.

The assassination was just finished here, and people found out in a blink of an eye. Is this still an assassination?

Too stupid players feel unreal, too smart players will lose the fun of the game.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, this type of game will specifically find a corresponding excuse for the player.

For example, players have super-technical equipment or super-powers, or the simplest enemy will patrol, and when there is a blind spot of vision, they will go forward to assassinate them, and naturally they will not touch others.

In "Assassin's Creed", Chen Xu also made some optimizations.

In the original version of the Basilica of the Holy Cross, although it was built, the open space is actually only a small room.

To describe it in one sentence, it can be counted in a slap.

Including this assassination level, there are two guards at the door plus two guards above the beam.

Either climb the wall to get in, or hire a woman for 150 yuan to divert the attention of the guards and sneak in.

In fact, the real Basilica of the Holy Cross is not that small.

The interior of the entire church is divided into three vertical halls, with a length of 114 meters in reality, a altar and ten worship rooms.

At the same time, Chen Xu also made settings for the mission requirements of the game.

In the game, players don't have to follow specific conditions, such as being caught, losing synchronization on mission failure, and then only being able to start over.

Players can choose the mode they want to carry out assassination missions.

Not approaching the cathedral immediately, Song Ren watched the mission for a while.

Soon he found a path, climbed directly to the roof and parachuted into the church

Find the right time to turn around and sneak into the square when there are no guards.

There were people who participated in the art exhibition in the square. From the conversations between these people, everyone could hear bad things about the deceased Auditore family, as well as bad things about Ezio's father.

Looking at the vast number of people, Song Ren opened his Eagle Eyes as instructed to find Uberto, the target of this time, and approached him little by little.

Song Ren took a deep breath and cautiously approached Uberto, who was all over the place.

At this time, his whole person was a little excited, and this feeling was like a hunter hiding in the dark.

Not even the enemy knew that he was about to doom.

One hit kills, and then disappears into the darkness.

Looking at Uberto in front of him, Song Ren in the game was controlling Ezio's shortcuts a little bit, and at the same time, he had already made up the next picture in his mind.

After getting close, Song Ren saw the interactive button to trigger assassination on his screen.

Resolutely pressing the interactive button, Song Ren saw Ezio in the game rush forward and use the Hidden Blade that Da Vinci had repaired to hit Uberto's chest five times.

At this time, time seems to freeze, and the surrounding space becomes a white space similar to code.

The dying Uberto looked at Ezio blankly, and said his last words.

"You will do the same to save your loved ones."

But facing Uberto's so-called last words, Ezio just sneered and responded coldly.

"Yes! I will, and I have done so."

Obviously this is a kind of communication between the two people on the spiritual level.

Song Ren was a little stunned for this setting.

This is... a godsend! ?

With the disappearance of the white animus space like a code, the surrounding people screamed in horror.

Looking at the people around who had slandered the family and his father before, Ezio just shouted loudly to let them know that the blood of the Auditore family has not been cut off.

'The Auditore family is not dead! ’

'I'm still here, I! Ezio! Ezio Auditore! ’

Following Ezio's loud announcement, the guards outside rushed in, but at this time Song Ren had already controlled Ezio to climb up the roof and escape.

Hide the darkness, kill with one hit! So handsome to explode!

Feeling his pounding heart, Song Ren was still reminiscing about his assassination performance just now.

"This is a perfect assassination!" Song Ren sighed as he looked at the task of settlement.

At this moment, his good friend Zhang Yi is also playing the game.

Although the current weapon is only a hidden sword, although the skills of various assassins have not been learned yet, including the kill streak system, the air assassination system, etc. have not been unlocked.

But what does it matter? It's enough to have a Hidden Sword to defend against the backlash.

As an old player of soul-based games, the anti-counterfeiting determination in Assassin's Creed is not difficult, and after anti-counterfeiting, the enemy can be directly executed.

So after killing Uberto and watching the swarms of guards coming in, he did not leave immediately, but killed all the guards who came to support one by one at the corner of the corner where the gate was stuck.

"It's a perfect assassination!" Zhang Yi looked at the corpses all over the ground, and he also expressed the same emotion.
