Chapter 903 Two kinds of effects
As for the changes to the VR mode, they were bigger.
The mode of operation didn't matter. It was controlled by consciousness anyway. The key was the visual performance.
One of the highlights of the original "escape from death" was the movie-level storyboard and two-person split-screen operation. If they wanted to make it into VR mode, the storyboard was easy, but the split-screen was difficult.
If the screen was split in VR, the player would probably have a mental breakdown, and it would be terrible to stare at the left or right side for a long time. After all, PC and Switch's display was flat, while VR had a full view. It was impossible to copy it.
However, VR mode was still necessary. High-precision art resources supported VR, and story mode was also very suitable, so VR mode would adopt a different image presentation method from Switch.
The most important thing about VR was the sense of immersion, so other than a few games with special requirements (such as <end of the United States>>), first-person was the best choice. The VR mode of "escape" would also adopt a first-person perspective, which was to try to restore the whole story in the most realistic way.
In the interlude plot in VR, the use of the camera was similar to the original. The unsuitable camera angles were changed to first-person angles. Some of the more classic scenes, such as the "horizontal combat" in the hospital, were shot from special angles. Compared to other VR games, the use of the camera in the VR version of escape was more similar to that of a movie.
In addition, after Leo and Vincent got to know each other in the plot, the players only had to try to find the other player's location, and a simple sign would appear in their field of vision to give them a hint. This way, even in the chaotic scene, the players would know the approximate location of their other friend and what he was doing.
As for the more gaudy things in VR, such as split screens and a small screen on the top right corner of the field of view, any addition of other scenes in the first-person perspective would seriously affect the first-person gaming experience, so they could not be done.
He could only make better use of camera scheduling and simple prompts to improve the player experience.
Of course, this would inevitably lead to a different experience between VR and Switch mode. In contrast, Switch mode emphasized the use of the camera in the game itself, and players could see the whole picture of another player. On the other hand, VR mode placed more emphasis on immersion and realism. The graphics were better, and the field of view was completely unrestricted, but the highlight of the storyboard was not there.
Both modes had their own advantages, and it was impossible to occupy all of them. Therefore, the price of the VR version was low due to this consideration.
As for which mode the players preferred, it was up to them to choose. If they were rich, they could just buy one VR version and invite their friends to play at home to experience both versions.
……
……
On the day that escape was released, it only took a few hours for it to appear on the best-selling list of games in the headquarters experience area.
Many players had already discussed with their friends who would buy and which version to buy.
On the fish-catching live broadcast platform.
Looking at the screen full of bullet comments, old P sighed a little helplessly.
"Escape? You guys want to see it that much? But no one is playing with me. "
"You all want to play with me? Don't tell me I have to go to Weibo to draw a prize? Ah, forget it. Since you all want to watch it so much, I'll go find someone to play with. "
"I heard that this game has shooting elements? Aiya, aren't you guys joking? with my skills, wouldn't I be defeated if I played this kind of shooting game? Just play with it!"
"Alright, alright. I'll see who's in my friends list."
Old P was a little speechless. He wasn't particularly interested in this kind of story-oriented game, but he couldn't stand the repeated demands of the audience. He could only silently download the game in the VR gaming pod while thinking about who to play with.
What he didn't expect was that the audience strongly demanded to watch the Switch version.
Old P thought for a moment and said,"I'm not familiar with Switch. Let me check ... Oh, this game can be played with the game pod and then output two different image signals. How about this? I play with others, and then I output the image signal of Switch, and he output the image signal of the game pod. You can watch whichever version you want to watch, okay?"
"Hmm ... Who should I find to play with?"
The audience had already started to call out names.
"I'm looking for Xue Lin!"
"No, no, no. This game needs two men to play together to have a sense of immersion and be more interesting. Let's find little fatty and smash him!"
"Little Fatty's marksmanship is terrible and he only knows how to shout 666. Won't he be a burden to old P?"
"This is a two-person game, not an fps game! Your worry is a little baffling!"
The players all recommended their favorite streamers, hoping to see them play with old P.
Old P hesitated for a few minutes before saying,"that's enough. You guys stop spamming. I've thought of a candidate. You'll definitely be satisfied."
Old P found Qin an on the friends page.""Come, let's buy" escape "and play it together!"
The bullet screen instantly exploded.
"Oh my God, master Qin?!"
"Master Qin doesn't play any games other than PUBG. Can I call him over?"
"It's impossible. After all, Godfather Qin is a Buddhist streamer. Every time the bullet screen spams ask him to play other games, he'll pretend that he can't see it. Hahahaha."
"It's definitely impossible to get anyone else to come, but there's still hope if old P comes. After all, the two of them are good friends."
"Eh, I suddenly want to see Godfather Qin play other games!"
"But ... If that's the case, old P will be dragging master Qin down, hahaha."
"Nonsense, it's obviously a forced reduction of the game's difficulty. The two of them are hugging each other's thighs and taking turns to carry ..."
The players were still a little excited. Although old P and Qin an were the two pillars of the PUBG section, they rarely saw Qin an play other games.
According to old P, most new games would be played at night at the request of the audience, and there was more interaction with the bullet screen. However, Qin an's style was more Buddhist. Other than ensuring the duration of the live broadcast, everything else was more casual. He was not interested in other games. His favorite thing was to go to the fairy server and play embarrassingly with the artificial intelligence.
If he could really see old P playing escape with Qin an today, it would be quite fun, right?
Five minutes later.
Old P said,"alright, done!" Qin an agreed. Wait a moment, he just went to download the game. I'll take this opportunity to buy the game. "
After old P finished speaking, the bullet comments were all excited.
"F * ck, he really agreed! As expected, old P's face is bigger!"
"Goodbye. I went to Qin an's livestream and watched it. Lol."
"Qin an has the VR effect and old P has the Switch effect, right? I really want to see it, so I might as well open two websites!"
