New from NetEase"Shooting the Condor".Testing is coming soonIt's a bit ruthless to live in it
Rumors!NetEase's martial arts masterpiece "Shooting the Condor" has finally set off a testing frenzy again!The official announcement is that on January 12th, the three-terminal roaming test will be launched, breaking the boundaries and allowing players to enjoy the shuttle between PC and mobile devices.
Looking at the test revelations released by the official, this project looks really a bit ruthless in it!
Ingenuity: Character model design
The development team has put a lot of effort into the many soul characters in the original book. Taking the classic character Huang Rong as an example, they deeply studied the character setting and age background of the girl in the original book to ensure that her image is closer to the image in **. At the same time, they also combined the makeup characteristics of the Southern Song Dynasty and made many targeted adjustments to Huang Rong's makeup. For example, Huang Rong's identity as a little beggar who just appeared is also full of characteristics.
The makeup of the Southern Song Dynasty was more inclined to white makeup and plain makeup, and the makeup of Huang Rong, who had restored her appearance, was carefully adjusted according to the characteristics of this era, which was both luxurious and fresh without losing the beauty of elegance. In addition, the development team paid attention to detail, from makeup to facial models, which were carefully designed and optimized to present a more vivid and realistic image.
The face model of Guo Jing, another major protagonist, is more combined with the image of film and television dramas, of course, because the costume of Huang Rihua of the Legend of the Condor Heroes of 83 is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
This adjustment strengthens the chivalrous spirit of thick eyebrows and big eyes between the eyebrows and eyes, and also retains the childishness of the 18-year-old fledgling in the original setting, and you can faintly see the immature image of Guo Jing on the TV screen 40 years ago.
In half a year, the development team not only refined the faces of the characters, but also comprehensively upgraded the costume design. One of the most striking is the advanced cloth solving technology they employ. This technique makes the in-game fabric visually softer and more natural to swing, while also subtly balancing the realism of physical collisions.
Founding the Sect: Optimization of the martial arts system
After interviewing players in the closed beta, we learned that in the last test, the martial arts system of NetEase's "Condor Shooting" has not yet reached the realm of perfection, and there are challenges such as too long combo chains and insufficient depth of the move tree. However, the brave are fearless, and the development team and the beta players fought side by side, and the martial arts system was fully optimized and iterated according to the players' suggestions!
At the level of martial arts art performance, the development team not only preliminarily completed the optimization of the art style and resources of some martial arts, but also focused on strengthening the free connotation of the rivers and lakes and the shocking details of film and television. Every move and style seems to allow us to hear the tide of the rivers and lakes and feel the sparks of the intersection of swords.
True martial arts should not have a flat a!"In addition to making the combination of martial arts moves more reasonable, they are also committed to creating a combat system with no flat A, hundreds of martial arts moves that can be freely matched, and a high degree of freedom in the combo chain. The combination of tricks and internal strength will allow every player to find their own martial arts path in the game. The existing calm heavy sword, elegant light sword and stick method with strong vibration feedback are just the tip of the iceberg, and in the future, there will be more Qimen weapons in Jin Yong's martial arts to gradually join, making the rivers and lakes more colorful!
In the martial arts system of "Condor Shooting", the design of the chivalrous system also beats the vitality of the game. When designing the chivalrous moves, the development team is not only committed to being close to the spiritual core of the original work, but also exploring a perfect intersection between the power of traditional martial arts and the elegant sense of modern aesthetics.
Not only did they focus on dazzling visual effects, but they also crafted the sound of each move. Guided by Yang Kang's Yang family marksmanship, players can feel the subtle differences behind every stab, every pick, and every block in the game, as if they can hear the sharp sound of the tip of the gun cutting through the air, and feel the bloody breath emanating from the hero's body.
Each knight is given a variety of action types such as running, sprinting, standby, etc., and each action is accompanied by a corresponding voice, making the knights more vivid and vivid. When the knights charge into battle, the bloody shouts will ignite the player's fighting spirit;When they were on standby to prepare for battle, the steady breathing sound seemed to tell the story of the rivers and lakes.
In this bloody world, the martial arts system is not only a game mechanism, but also a kind of inheritance and tribute to the spirit of martial arts.
Time synchronization: The introduction of intelligent algorithms
The time of the world of "Condor Shooting" is synchronized with the real world, and this powerful feature has also been fully upgraded in this three-terminal roaming test. In order to let us experience this realism more deeply, the project team has developed an intelligent computing system. They collect lighting effects at different time nodes in the real world, perfectly match them with in-game art modeling, lighting effects and other resources, and feed them back into the game in real time.
When the sun shines, the rivers and lakes are sparkling;When the moonlight is hazy, the shadow of the sword is like a dream. Players will walk side by side with time and explore this world full of blood and passion. Every moment of light and shadow changes, as if telling the story of the rivers and lakes, leading us into a more realistic and immersive era of martial arts.
The second is the realism of the NPC, all the dialogue text, expressions, voices, and shots of the NPC in the game design will be pre-trained by AI in combination with martial arts**, history books, poems and songs, etc., and then generated freely, where the behavior of each aboriginal will be more personal, and each aboriginal will have their own life, in the world at different times, in addition to the different scenery, the behavior of the aborigines is different, and the interactive content is completely different. And there are also different ways to play and easter eggs hidden in different times, and this piece of rivers and lakes is a reality.
Can this work bring a shocking revolution to the domestic martial arts open world game market as many players expect?
On January 12th, let's step into this fascinating world of rivers and lakes and witness the glory of "Condor Shooting" together!Search for "NetEase "Condor Shooting" official website" to participate in this three-terminal roaming test, let us work together to write our own stories of the rivers and lakes!
