This is not a BUG, this is a game feature

"Star Emperor 2" is a new game after all, and new games require a long period of trial and error and testing before they can be launched on the playing field.

In other words, everyone still has time to adjust slowly, so that they will not be caught off guard at the beginning.

But before that, the exclusive "Galaxy" peripheral set for "Star Emperor 2" pre-ordered by Zhao Yunlong has finally arrived!

As soon as he received the express delivery, Zhao Yunlong couldn't wait to open the package and took out the bright black peripheral body inside.

He bought the deluxe version.

Compared with the entry-level version, the deluxe version has an additional special belt embedded with chips and sensors.

But that's not the point...

The belt that comes with the deluxe version is just a side dish at best, and the real main dish has to be the core five-piece set.

The so-called five-piece set refers to left and right gloves, left and right leg straps, and a vest that can be worn on the body. The shape is similar to the "reflective vest" worn on the vehicle during annual inspections for photos.

This five-piece set is the core configuration of the "Galaxy" suit, and the belt is just the icing on the cake.

"let me see……"

Zhao Yunlong took out the instruction manual and user manual and took a look at it, and roughly understood the correct way to use this Galaxy suit.

The gloves, straps and belt use button batteries, which can be replaced directly when they run out of power.

As for the vest, there is an external USB cable nearly five meters long, which can be plugged into the computer/TV motherboard interface...

The usage logic is similar to that of a TV remote control, except that the operation is more precise and sensitive, and it can recognize the scale of the player's movements and then transmit the instructions to the game.

As a former IT engineer, Zhao Yunlong could tell at a glance that the underlying logic of this thing was nothing more than converting key operations such as WASD into "gestures" or "actions" for execution.

Installing a camera can theoretically achieve similar results, but the camera can only recognize movements and cannot judge "strength".

"Use sensors + voice control to complete operations that could only be performed using keyboard, mouse or controller before?"

After playing with it for a while, Zhao Yunlong couldn't wait to connect to the computer and try it out in the room.

He started a normal matching game and chose the currently popular "Blood Demon Supreme" as the playing character.

"Blood Demon Summons!"

"Blood Demon Summoning...huh? Why is there no response?!"

After entering the game, Zhao Yunlong, who was neatly dressed, shouted twice. When he found that the game character had no response, he panicked.

what happened?

The peripheral connection is normal! He was able to test just now, but why can't he use his skills now after entering actual combat?

"Oh! I forgot..."

As if he had thought of something, Zhao Yunlong raised his right hand in annoyance and made a "waving" motion.

In the game screen, the Blood Demon Supreme, who had been staying still, suddenly started to move. He raised his right hand and summoned a blood crow to fly towards his opponent.

That’s right!

Zhao Yunlong just forgot that some skills can be released with pure voice, but some skills require basic gestures and cannot be released with voice alone.

Blood Demon Summoning is a skill that relies mainly on gestures and cannot be released simply by voice.

Why is this so?

Because some skills have obvious "forward" and "backward" casting movements, if they are released with pure voice and no action gestures are judged, then what is the point of buying the "Galaxy" suit?

It's better to just use a keyboard, mouse and controller. You don't want to move anyway, so why do you still use this set of motion sensing peripherals?

What skills are pure voice casts?

The answer is some status skills, gain or debuff Buff skills, and the most classic secret technique of "extreme sublimation", which can be released through voice.

certainly!

For skills like "Blood Demon Summoning", although the voice cannot be released alone, if you insist on shouting a few words to show your momentum, no one will stop you.

"Are you testing peripherals?"

After taking a skill, the opponent still did not move, because he saw clues from Zhao Yunlong's strange operation method and guessed that he was testing the new "Galaxy" peripheral.

The black dragon is also a dragon: "Yes! I am testing the newly arrived peripherals. Can you help me? I feel that many operations are unfamiliar..."

"no problem!"

The opponent readily agreed. Anyway, it was a match and not a ranking, so no one would care about the outcome. And he also wanted to know whether the Galaxy Suit was really as amazing as Brother Ba claimed?

He did not buy the Galaxy set, so he wanted to judge whether this set was worth buying through the experience of a real buyer, Zhao Yunlong.

With the cooperation of his opponents, Zhao Yunlong began a series of tests.

This included the Blood Demon Supreme's skill release method. I tried each skill once, and then experienced the so-called "force" induction.

really!

The special effects and damage caused by heavy attacks and light attacks are completely different from each other.

For the same skill, taking Blood Demon Supreme's fist as an example, the heavy blow is released slowly, but the special effects are gorgeous and the damage explodes. Zhao Yunlong needs to clench his fist tightly and then punch it suddenly.

Light punches are relatively fast, but the special effect is a castrated version, and the damage is much lower than that of heavy punches...

In terms of keyboard and mouse operations, light and heavy clicks are generally controlled with the left and right mouse buttons, so the feeling is not that strong.

But after using the Galaxy suit, the operational experience of light tapping and heavy tapping is completely different.

"Fighting is fun!"

After throwing several heavy punches in succession, Zhao Yunlong finally felt that the Galaxy Suit brought him the greatest pleasure.

The sense of immersion is really strong, right?

It's like playing a gun battle game with you dragging the mouse to aim. Can the experience be as realistic as holding a "simulated gun" to aim?

And in the process, I would use my voice from time to time to summon my own status-based skills such as "Imperial Weapon" or "Extreme Sublimation", not to mention the sense of experience.

When outsiders see it, they may think it looks like a middle-aged man. What kind of lunatic escaped from a mental hospital?

But in Zhao Yunlong's eyes, this new fighting game experience alone is worth the price of admission.

Not to mention, the Galaxy peripheral set is also equipped with sensors and vibration feedback devices.

In other words, you are punching in the air, but after your game character hits the target, the punching hand can feel a slight force vibration.

Now, the blow feedback is also available!

Who dares to say that "Star Emperor" has a poor sense of impact and is a shame for fighting games? Doesn’t this feeling of impact completely blow up a lot of fighting games?

The test is almost done.

It's not that Zhao Yunlong doesn't want to continue testing, it's mainly because his opponent is already out of health, and if he takes another punch, he will be lying dead on the spot, so he can't continue to test the impact feedback.

The next thing to do is to stand still and "get beaten", let the opponent attack him, and see how well the feedback from the attack is.

After typing to communicate with the opponent, the opponent soon activated his status skills, used his imperial soldiers to activate his special physique, and began to attack Zhao Yunlong, who was fully defending.

"I'll wipe it, it's okay!"

During the beating, Zhao Yunlong was very satisfied when he felt the vibration of the vest, belt, leggings and other parts, as well as the sound effects of the blows such as "bang bang bang jumping".

That’s it!

Based on his subjective experience, the sensitivity and low latency of the Galaxy suit are already worth the price.

Not to mention, the experience of playing "Star Emperor 2" with the Galaxy Set is really refreshing and enjoyable. There is an inexplicable sense of pleasure that the fantasy comes into reality and becomes the Supreme Emperor.

"Okay, thank you!"

After bidding farewell to this kind passerby, Zai Yunlong, who was roughly familiar with how to release each skill, decided to be bolder and go directly to the Road to Immortality this time for a real battle.

After all, a simulation test is just a simulation, and it doesn’t matter if the matching is real. The pressure of matching is nothing compared to that of Chengxian Road. If you want to test, just test it in an actual high-pressure environment!

"Match successful!"

Accompanied by a pop-up reminder, Zhao Yunlong successfully entered the Immortal Road game.

This is different from the previous matches. In the matches, everyone plays more casually and for fun, not so hard, and the desire to operate is not that strong.

But what is the environment of Chengxian Road?

Since the previous work "Star Emperor", the road to immortality has been famous for its cruelty and bloodiness. If you set foot on the road to immortality if you are not strong enough, you will either leave your graphics card or your life behind!

The road to immortality in "Star Emperor 2" is equally cruel and ruthless. After all, at this time, there are still a lot of players using very ordinary computer configurations, and not everyone has the money to buy the top graphics cards.

This means that the road to immortality is still very dangerous, especially for those players who use mid- to low-end graphics cards. If you dare to enter, you will die...

"It is indeed the road to immortality!"

While he was still preparing for the countdown, Zhao Yunlong saw that his opponent summoned the imperial weapon to activate his special physique, and also activated the ultimate sublimation, with a hazy golden smoke lingering around his body.

All I can say is, it’s so awesome!

Sure enough, the risk of conquering the road to immortality is not low. This meeting is the ultimate sublimation of greeting with hands. How can ordinary people bear this?

What we are saying is that the preparation countdown has not ended yet, and now the ultimate sublimation has been launched. Brother, you really don’t need to be so nervous and desperate, right?

"This looks down upon me too much!"

Zhao Yunlong couldn't laugh or cry. He didn't expect that the environment of the second generation's road to immortality was no worse than that of the first generation. It was still so terrifying and bloody.

Forget it, the opponent has already used the ultimate sublimation in their attacks. It would be rude for him not to keep up, and if he doesn't use the ultimate sublimation, he is afraid that he will be beaten to death by the opponent with just two punches.

To be conservative, let’s open it!

Anyway, the opponent's first move is extremely sublime, and he is the last move, so he will not lose no matter what.

"Buzz buzz!"

The two people on the road to immortality, their initiative was extremely sublime, and the fight was so dark that even the great road was almost wiped out.

At this time, Zhao Yunlong heard the dull sound of the fan coming from the chassis, and he suddenly realized that the two of them had exchanged nearly fifty moves without knowing it.

As we all know!

Since the launch of Ascension, there has rarely been a natural end, either by killing the opponent or by destroying the opponent's VRAM to win the game.

The problems of "Star Emperor" existed in the first generation. Although the second generation has improved somewhat, they still exist.

That is, the longer the game lasts, the players may be able to persist and maintain good health, but the computer may not be able to hold on.

But now, the two of them were in a state of extreme sublimation, and it was difficult to tell the difference. The hit rate of key skills was not high. They had already spent fifty moves and still couldn't tell the winner. Zhao Yunlong's computer was almost overwhelmed.

All we can do is fight!

The person on the other side didn't know what was going on, but he wasn't in a hurry at the moment. Zhao Yunlong was in a hurry anyway.

He didn't dare to bet on whether the game would crash first if he himself would crash or if the opponent would crash first. Anyway, he was prepared for the worst. If he wanted to win, he would have to fight hard...

But the opponent was very cunning. He seemed to have noticed that Zhao Yunlong was in a hurry and put enough offensive pressure on him, so he turned to the offensive and concentrated on defense to show off his moves.

"It's over!"

There was a little expert on the opposite side. Zhao Yunlong, who realized this, sighed when he heard the buzzing of the chassis becoming more and more harsh.

If nothing else, this game is over!

The opponent opened first to maximize his improvement, and he opened later. This was originally a huge advantage, but unexpectedly he underestimated the intensity of the road to immortality in "Star Emperor 2".

I thought that with his computer configuration, he could play well in ranked matches, and it would be easy to become an immortal.

I never expected that the road to becoming an immortal would still be so cruel and bloody. After fifty moves, I was still a little unable to hold on...

The buzz is getting louder!

Not long after, just when Zhao Yunlong punched, a window prompt suddenly popped up on the 32-inch computer screen.

["Star Emperor 2" no response]

send!

The game crashed and crashed.

This is not surprising at all, after all, there was a warning just now. Moreover, Zhao Yunlong didn't think it was strange that "Star Emperor" crashed and crashed.

joke!

Who hasn’t crashed while playing this game?

Even if he is the supreme Immortal Emperor on the road to becoming an Immortal, he has been fighting for too long with a strong man of the same level, and he has to retreat when he should.

Even in professional leagues such as the GAL League, there was a funny scene in which a Sony team player was beaten by the opponent, causing the game to crash and then call the referee for an emergency timeout.

Oh yes, after the pause and reconnection, this player still lost...

When professional players encounter a game crash, they can pause and wait for reconnection. If that doesn't work, they can go back in time and space, but this is not possible for ordinary players.

Generally speaking, when encountering a crash, everyone will assume that their computer configuration is not as good as that of their opponent. They just blame themselves for not holding on long enough to allow their opponent to exert their full strength, so they are willing to admit defeat.

Reconnection?

Don't be ridiculous. With Tianba Studio's potato server, there is no one to call a pause for you. By the time you reconnect to the game, the game will be over long ago.

This time is no exception...ah?

When Zhao Yunlong reluctantly re-entered the game and accepted his defeat calmly, he was shocked to discover why the vest on his body was vibrating?

Moreover, this vibration occurs in bursts, not continuously. This is the same feedback as receiving a few punches from the opponent in a normal game.

But……

Isn’t the game just over over? How could you still hit him?

Just when Zhao Yunlong was puzzled and wondered whether the Galaxy Suit was malfunctioning, the gloves also received impact feedback.

The thing you just bought is broken when you get it?

Zhao Yunlong was so angry that he kicked the packaging box hard, feeling that he was really wronged for spending hundreds of yuan on this crap.

You were really fooled... Huh?

Wait a minute!

When he just kicked the box, the strap on his calf actually had hit feedback and vibration?
