Chapter 48
After putting out a teaser in the livestream room.
Zhao Ming ended the stream at light speed and slipped away.
Leaving behind countless players in the livestream room whose curiosity had been piqued, scratching their hearts and livers to know more detailed information, only to find that there was no updated information on the Polar Star Games official website or the Federation Headline account.
Zhao Ming left a cliffhanger and ran away.
Many netizens were so angry they rushed into Zhao Ming's account on the Federation Headline.
Fiercely... contributing a wave of emotion value.
However, many players also started to analyze.
As of now, in the plot of "World War II: Rise of the Empire", the British-French Federation outrageously evacuated over 300,000 troops from Dunkirk, but obviously, the Empire would not give up.
The name "Battle of Britain" already proves it.
This is an air battle that took place in the British Federation.
Because with the continuous deepening of the plot, and Blue Star players continuously supplementing the game with many "Earth" worldviews and knowledge.
They know that Britain is the ancient place name for the area where the British Federation is located.
And now it is usually used to describe geography, culture, politics, etc., broadly summarizing the countries and people in the area, which is the British Federation. Through this knowledge, combined with an understanding of the map.
Players from both factions have already started to analyze where the Empire will start attacking the British Federation from.
And what is even more anticipated is the "air battle".
Since it's an "air battle", planes will definitely be open as vehicles, right?!
Bai Xiang was so happy in the livestream room that he was ready to fly a plane to bomb the Empire's capital once the mode was online.
That smug look.
Made the Empire faction players so angry they were ready to snipe him online.
And just when many netizens were guessing.
Inside Zhao Ming's office at Polar Star Games.
Zhao Ming's voice rang out:
"Open vehicles?"
"Maybe a few lucky ones will be randomly assigned the identity of a pilot."
"But there won't be too many."
"According to the current equipment of the British Federation, the number of planes is very limited, only 1,200."
"A 【Battle of Britain】 dungeon is currently set for 100,000 people per session, and it will automatically start the next session when full."
"There are so many players."
"Can't just create 100,000 planes to go up into the sky."
"And the main core of this game is the promotion of anti-war awareness."
"Compared to the exciting air battle."
"Players being bombed on the ground, watching the city turn into ruins, the desperate wailing of countless residents, a city turning into ruins in the blink of an eye, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people displaced, and experiencing it personally, can better feel the cruelty of war."
Zhao Ming sat in the boss chair, looking at the account comments while saying to Shen Qinghan, who was sitting on the sofa looking at the game's subsequent materials:
"Naval battles, street battles, tank battles, these will all be added to the dungeons one after another."
"There will be exclusive tragic CGs after the end to guide players to feel the cruelty of war."
"And not just these."
"There are many cities in the immersive plot that have a long history, sparking players' curiosity through a series of daily routines or stories."
"As players continue to study in depth, they might even fall in love with this city in the game."
"Then... war comes."
"It takes decades to build a city, and it might take hundreds or even thousands of years to maintain a city's existence, but when war comes."
"It's just overnight, and everything is gone."
"In the continuously released immersive plots, players personally feel how a city is destroyed in a short period of time."
"Presumably, it should be able to make players dazed and shocked."
Of course, he can also harvest emotion value by the way, which is also secondary.
After listening to Zhao Ming's words.
Shen Qinghan nodded, having no objections:
"That's right."
"The core of the game is to promote anti-war. Although the competitive battlefield has been changed, it doesn't seem to be a big problem for now."
"Just develop in this direction, continuously launch plots and dungeons, let players feel the cruelty of war, thereby reducing the public's desire for war, which also conforms to the core ideology of the 'Anti-War Competition'."
Because of her family, Shen Qinghan knows more about the Anti-War Competition. The main purpose of the Anti-War Competition is to suppress the voices in the private sector that promote and incite war.
But are those fanatics who incite war important to the Federation?
Not important.
It has been so many years since the technological explosion, and although there have been no major war frictions, which Federation doesn't have some black technology? This is also the reason for the restraint among the six major federations; one careless move and they might blow up Blue Star.
As for those fanatics who promote war... it's fine to find their locations and clear them out, but they can't be killed off completely; they can only be suppressed to avoid inciting more intense resistance and making the situation look ugly.
Are those deluded people important to the Federation?
Important.
After all, the Federation cannot arrest people on a large scale just because they express their opinions. If any Federation did that, other federations would definitely kick them while they're down. No one wants to be the first bird, so appeasing the public has become very important.
This is also the reason for the birth of the "Anti-War Competition".
The 【Normandy Landing】 battlefield update launched by Zhao Ming is a bit off from the anti-war core in its faction confrontation method. The game is currently very popular, and its influence has gradually radiated to other federations.
The military units of other federations behind the 【Normandy Landing】 leaderboard are still constantly speedrunning. The game cannot have an accident because it deviates from the core ideology.
That's why Shen Qinghan planned to come over and ask.
Now looking at it... her thoughts were redundant; Zhao Ming had already planned it out.
Continuously launching plots and dungeons, letting players personally feel the despair of ordinary soldiers or people in war.
Shen Qinghan flipped through the materials and asked:
"On this material."
"After 【Battle of Britain】, it's the national battle dungeon 【Blitzkrieg Poland】."
"According to what you just said, the plane vehicles opened after 【Battle of Britain】 can only be touched by a limited number of players. When players find out they can't fly planes to fight, they will feel like they've been played."
"I guess your name will be scolded onto the hot search again."
"When the national battle dungeon 【Blitzkrieg Poland】 is opened."
"Players enter the game... and find that the vehicle is a horse..."
"This..."
They will be scolded very miserably, right?
Zhao Ming smiled and said:
"Very good, right?"
Shen Qinghan's mouth moved, and she couldn't help but say:
"What's good about it?"
Zhao Ming opened his mouth and said:
"Who would have thought that a text game would play the same trick a second time?"
"Tsk..."
Opening plane vehicles, only a few lucky players can fly them.
Opening vehicles, a small number of people can ride horses, as for the majority... of course, they are hiding in trenches.
Maybe there will be Empire tanks rolling over the players... hiss!
The scene is too beautiful, I dare not look.
Although it's a bit miserable.
But how much emotion value will this contribute? Let them scold if they want to scold.
Zhao Ming sighed inwardly.
After Shen Qinghan finished listening to Zhao Ming's explanation, she could only nod, having no intention of interfering. A partner who doesn't interfere in company affairs is a good partner.
Then, looking at the many dungeons listed behind 【Blitzkrieg Poland】 in the materials, Shen Qinghan asked:
"Are these also dungeons?"
"I see only names, some are even people's names, and there are no other information marked."
"【Battle of Chosin Reservoir】, 【Erich Hartmann】, 【White Death】..."
Zhao Ming opened his mouth and said:
"Those are just ideas for some subsequent dungeons, as well as hidden plots for the 【Multiplayer Collaborative Plot】 mode."
"【Battle of Chosin Reservoir】 is an independent plot dungeon, belonging to faction confrontation, which is a test of the limits of soldiers' will. When it's done, we can let the Northern Army try it."
"Didn't they say the difficulty wasn't enough last time? Just use this to let them feel it."
"As for the others, they are hidden plots to be added to the 【Multiplayer Collaborative Plot】 mode in the future."
"If randomly assigned."
"Players will face the peak soldiers or plane armor aces in World War II."
