The global sales are super50 million sets！When it comes to 3D fighting games, the Tekken series is naturally inescapable. The bloody and exciting fighting gameplay, plus the previous "Tekken 7" is already there8 years, fans are looking forward to "Tekken 8". 
On December 13, 2023, Bandai Namco, the developer of the Tekken series, announced that it would launchDemo version of Tekken 8. This Thursday, December 14, it will be the first to arrive on PlayStation 5 consoles. xbox series x|S and PC (Steam) players will need to wait another week (December 21). 
From the trailer screen, we can see that compared to the previous game, "Tekken 8" under Unreal Engine 5The graphics are more aggressive and gorgeous.
But as far as ninety-nine people are concerned, they are more interestedChanges to in-game mechanics。Especially the official emphasis「super ghost battle」System.
Piling!?Necessary, but also full of problems!
For fighting game lovers,Piling trainingIt's an indispensable part. In this brutal and exciting genre, only you can take responsibility for the outcome. 
There is no master, old age to take you when you are a novice. Fighting alone also makes you unable to shake the pot after failure, if you insist on not retreating, there is only thatWork XiThis is the way to go. Unfortunately, traditional piling Xi is more like basketball and tennis trainingRacket and racket training
It allows you to gradually become familiar with the skills, punches and feetDetermination and effective timeand prompt you to adjust your technique a little bit to implantMuscle memory。However, after getting familiar with the combos, you are still neededThrough actual combat, integrate the preliminarily practiced Xi moves into your own playing logic. This step is more difficult than the previous combo Xi!
Fighting games have been niche before, and one of the key reasons is the lack of players, resulting in playersIt is difficult to find the right opponent to practice Xi。The original online system of building a house is easy to start withA master of the full level. After a "violent beating", he was directly at a loss. It's like just a month into junior high school, and I took the high school entrance examination directly. The lack of actual combat experience makes you face a veteran with rich countermeasures: jumping is wrong, squatting is wrong, punches and kicks are wrong, and putting must kill is wrong. ."Which, what, what" is wrong！Only an 80-point answer sheet can be called a "test" to fill in the gaps, and a 10-point test paper can only be retaken. 
It is at this stage that many players lose the motivation and interest to continue playing fighting games. After all,The game is enjoyable for the body and mind, rather than being abused as a punching bag. 
In response to this problem, some games employ:Rank mechanics。For example, "Street Fighter 6", which won the TGA Best Fighting this year, distinguishes players of different skill levels through multiple ranks such as "Diamond", "Platinum", and "Master", so as to avoid too much frustration for novice players. At the same time, due to fighting gamesThe performance varies greatly between different roles, and even some characters have different ways of playing. "Street Fighter 6" is also specially set up,The rank points between different roles are not interconnectedmechanism. 
Analogous to "Glory of Kings", it is not only Arthur and Hou Yi who have different pathsCharacter ranks are not uniform。Hou Yi and Lu Ban No. 7, who are both bottom scorers, are also separated. However, in terms of the actual gameplay experience, the official should have settings for playersHide points。Therefore, even if the player retrains the character in Street Fighter 6, it will not be said that they will meet the newbie in several rounds. EspeciallyWinning streak is a plusto a certain extent, it also avoids the emergence of a "rampant fish pond" situation.
"Tekken 8" with the introduction of data AI
In the Super Ghost Battle system, after 3-5 rounds of battles, the data AI will be able to do soCopy your playing Xi. It's like Kakashi in NarutoCopy with a writing wheelNo matter how much you don't slash the attack.
At this time, the player can be and"Another me".It's a battle (in a sense of "I fight myself"!).This wayIntuitive benefitsThere are 2 points:
First of all, because AI replication analysis is the routine countermeasures of current players,The level is about the same as that of the player, moderate difficulty. After all, what he copied is yourself, and what you know, he will use. And the overall style of play,It's not a pre-programmed prioritization routine, not so rigid. Secondly, this AI replication analysis can:Gradual updates, compared to the previous level division of most fighting AI, the transition is smoother. When you use new countermeasures to defeat the "old you", he will also learn your new tricks, and you and the other you will be together"Progress together".
Of course, if you are tired of playing with "yourself", or you want to learn other people's new routines, but the Internet is not good. You'll be in the Fight LoungeOther players' ghosts, fight with their ghosts. From this point of view, unlike Street Fighter 6's big-world RPG experience, Tekken 8's Super Ghost Battle offers something elseNew forms of content that don't require real-time networking. Let the fighting players, while having a new way to practice XiThere is one more game content that can be played locally.
The introduction of data AI into fighting games is not only interesting, but also seems to have been solvedSome difficult issues under the category。There is even a follow-up ghost battle between each other-"Electronic crickets".Possible!What do you think「super ghost battle」This system?Leave a message and tell everyone!
