Otherwise, if this foreigner comes over excitedly and asks him now, he really wouldn't know how to answer.
If he can't answer this, it's not just him who'll lose face, it's the face of all Chinese gamers!
Thank goodness, thank goodness.
"The Wandering Earth is written by Liu Cixin..."
Using the fragments of knowledge in his mind, Chen Mo began to recount what he knew.
After some communication.
This conversation ended with MAX giving a look that said, "You know so much, you're so amazing."
The conversation ended.
MAX added a sentence before he left.
"Hey, after you finish playing the demo, you have to talk to me again."
"sure."
Looking at MAX's back.
At this moment, Chen Mo had a feeling that was hard to describe.
A foreign blogger, at an international trade show, listened to a Chinese person talk about a reference book for domestically produced games and his understanding of games.
He listened so attentively, and even asked questions that he himself didn't quite understand.
The two even Googled together...
I don't know why, but I inexplicably felt a bit good.
"Brothers, Spark Games really showed its face this time. You can search for that MAX guy; he's a YouTuber with millions of followers."
"I didn't expect such a big shot to be paying attention to this game."
"I'm really looking forward to it now, and I hope Spark Games won't let us down."
Just then, the line began to move slowly.
"Alright, alright, guys, I'm going in now. I'll be bringing you more firsthand information soon!"
Chen Mo said excitedly, quickening his pace.
Upon entering the Spark Games booth, Chen Mo was stunned by the sight before him.
The booth itself wasn't very big.
But just from the layout, you can tell that Spark Games has a lot of money, nothing else.
The entire demo area was not large.
But the scenery is exquisite, the computer configuration is high, and the case is fully ARGB.
There are also some buildings nearby that are "frozen".
There was also a huge screen at the demo site, which was playing the PV for "The Wandering Earth: Home" on a loop.
This place, which looks like a high-end internet cafe, is now full of gamers.
Chen Mo quickly contacted the staff of Spark Games.
Soon, Chen Mo was guided to his computer.
After the photographer set up the live streaming tripod to ensure that the players watching the live stream could also see the game screen, Chen Mo couldn't wait to get started.
"I'm coming!"
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!! Open, open, open!"
"I've been waiting for so long, it's finally here!"
"Thanks for the call, the fleet has successfully landed!!"
"Whew, it's so cool to see the actual game right away."
Chen Mo sat down.
The number of viewers watching the live stream jumped to another level, and the number of comments on the screen also increased dramatically at this time.
Chen Mo quickly realized the reason.
At this time, the other streamers had not yet been assigned a spot.
He was the first person to conduct a live media broadcast at the entire Spark Games Expo, which naturally attracted a lot of attention.
You'd better do your best.
Chen Mo entered the game while thinking.
It's quite different from many construction game demos.
The demo of "The Wandering Earth: Home" starts with a fully constructed city.
The vast expanse of snow and the flowing warm orange lights create a very good first impression.
Moreover, the visuals are exquisite.
Whether it's the buildings, the pedestrians on the street, the lights, or the huge furnace in the center.
While possessing a unique style, it also gives people a peculiar sense of weight.
Besides the game's visuals, the overall UI style of the game is also similar.
The top left corner shows the time flow rate, while the top right corner displays various resources and maps.
Chapter 237 Spark Games is knowledgeable.
Chen Mo got started immediately.
The first thing I did was to open each of the building options and take a look; it was similar to most building games.
Various types of buildings were categorized and placed in these sections.
I tried building it again.
I discovered that I couldn't put it down.
The system indicates that there are no available areas.
Just as Chen Mo was wondering and subconsciously began to look for the region expansion function.
An event popped up in the game.
"Sir, we're running out of building materials. I think it's time to start excavating the city."
As soon as this event popped up, viewers watching the live stream flooded the chat with a new wave of comments.
"We have a job coming up!"
"Let me see what this is."
"Is this an event in the game? This looks interesting."
"Hurry up, streamer!"
"Digging up the city? What the heck? Is the copywriting wrong?"
Chen Mo watched as countless comments scrolled across his phone, which was placed next to the screen.
There was no interaction with the bullet comments.
He accepted the task, and then, following the prompts, clicked on the option to expand the area, and then, based on the prompts, selected a piece of land on the left side of the map.
After entering the region expansion function.
Chen Mo noticed a detail: although the game map had no boundaries.
However, the land parcels have been designated at the system level.
Just like this region expansion function.
Based on available manpower, up to 12 plots of land can be expanded at once.
Following the system prompts, Chen Mo first used 6 squares to form a straight line, creating a road, and then the remaining 6 squares were used to cover the designated area.
And then the amplification command was issued.
A construction progress bar also appeared above the area.
Just as Chen Mo subconsciously started looking for the time multiplier button to speed up the process.
He suddenly saw that the vehicles and machines that he had thought were just background scenery in a game, which had been surrounding the edge of the city, suddenly "came to life" and started up.
"Fuck, what is this?"
After exclaiming in surprise, Chen Mo quickly zoomed out.
Then he watched as these machines began to expand in the direction of the region.
These are rows of mechanical design drawings taken from the movie "The Wandering Earth".
While the modeling is certainly not as detailed as in the movie, it still has a unique style, exuding a strong sense of technology and power.
Workers in engineering armor, excavators, diggers, transport planes...
Shovel snow, clear snow, dig, fill in, tamp the soil.
It's clear that these machines have their own division of labor.
Although the player cannot control the animation, the entire animation is very smooth.
"Wow, this animation is amazing!"
"Damn, I feel like I could watch this all day."
"This is much more interesting than looking at the excavators on the roadside."
"Spark Games really understands the core of simulation building..."
Chen Mo saw the fleeting comment and replied in agreement.
"Indeed, a large part of the fun in simulation construction games lies in the feedback the game gives after we players issue commands."
"After the building is completed, we want to see how the building interacts with the environment and the surrounding area, such as the take-off and landing of airplanes at the airport and the departure of trains at the train station."
"These are the details that players want to see."
"Spark Games clearly understands the essence of simulation construction to be able to do this."
Just as Chen Mo was saying these few words.
The region expansion command has been completed.
Then, he saw another surprising scene.
Beneath this cleared plot of land lies a frozen lake.
Then, a short animated demonstration that popped up made him gape.
[The Frozen City]
The tsunami once swept across the globe, turning countless cities into submerged oceans. Now the seas have calmed down again, but in a different way.
We are still alive, though in a different way.
"Goodness, now I understand why they excavate cities."
"This really is urban excavation."
"So, we're going to break through the ice and extract resources from these frozen cities? That's an interesting premise."
Chen Mo also felt that this setting was somewhat novel.
But after the initial surprise, they quickly regained their composure.
Overall, these frozen cities in the game still serve as resource mines, similar to the iron mines and coal mines already built in these cities.
He then followed the instructions and built a resource-gathering structure on the ice.
That's all done.
The system then displayed a second event.
A group of believers arrived in the city.
