Agreeing to Create Bad Games, What the Hell Is ‘Titanfall’? Chapter 368: Unstoppable! The Spectacle of Launch Day!
Unrivaled! Unstoppable! Unmatched!
The history of the global gaming industry will record the spectacle that was the launch day of "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare".
Every ga developer across 233 countries and regions worldwide, regardless of size, refrained from releasing any gas involving the FPS genre on this day.
Yes.
Normally, riding the montum of the Higashitsu Gaming Festival's closure, the months of November and December each year are when ga developers cluster their ga releases, with major and minor gas, expansion packs, additional content, and in-ga events being announced almost daily.
But today.
All developers acted as if they had signed a ceasefire agreent, unanimously halting their own release plans.
And it wasn't just FPS gas.
This wave of mysterious silence even spread to markets of other ga genres.
The number of ga releases across the entire gaming circle on this day significantly decreased!
Amidst this, only one title dominated all FPS promotional resources within the gaming world with an unmatched posture!
Call of Duty!
This is a ga hailed by Gu Sheng as surpassing all previous shooting gas ever produced by Golden Wind, and further praised by Golden Wind Vice President Moriya Tetsuya as the benchmark for next-generation shooting gas!
With a massive investnt of up to 312 million dollars, it beca the most heavily invested ga in Golden Wind's history.
Although in subsequent promotions, Golden Wind didn't make excessively extravagant investnts, far from the overwhelming advertising campaign of the previous Resident Evil 7.
However!
Its promotional effectiveness was in no way inferior to Resident Evil 7, and even slightly surpassed it!
It carried a distinct flavor of dominating the scene single-handedly.
But in reality, everyone knew that this ti, the reason Old Thief Gu Sheng didn't invest an excessively extravagant promotional budget into this ga was because he had full confidence in winning over players with genuinely stunning ga quality!
So now—
[S.A.S.]
A sharp sword emblem surrounded by wings on both sides lit up on the screen.
The emblem of the British Royal Special Air Service rotated slightly, then shrank to beco a small logo in the upper left corner.
A 3D world map appeared, with a moving cursor jumping from London to the snow-covered Siberia, finally settling on the capital of the Warsaw Pact.
[I have good news: the world is still safe for now.]
[And bad news: civil war has broken out in the Warsaw Pact, with governnt forces and extremist militants engaging in fierce combat. 15,000 nuclear warheads are in imminent danger.]
[And in the Middle East—]
The cursor rapidly moved down, locking onto a map of Arabia filled with yellow sand. A warlord's portrait appeared, wearing a red beret and sunglasses.
[Khaled Al-Asad, leader of the second most powerful faction in the Middle East. Rumor has it he's the guy with the most oil locally. Intelligence units are keeping a close eye on him.]
[Of course, there's even worse news—]
[Today, command responded to our recruitnt request, picking a rookie from the new recruits to join us, nad "Soap"...]
In the dark screen, a string of bright green mission nas appeared in the lower right corner of the screen.

"OK everyone, good morning dear viewers, welco to the 'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare' livestream brought to you by Pew,"
"If you enjoy my stream, you can support with likes, subscriptions, and donations. Thank you all, let's not waste any more words—HERE WE GO!!!"
With Pew's cheer!
The highly anticipated Call of Duty officially launched with its first livestream!
The chat barrage went wild, with various US dollar donations continuously rolling in—
'Woo-hoo—! It's finally released!'
'Been looking forward to this for so long, you have no idea how many tis I played that demo version!'
'Recruit reporting! This is so damn exciting...'
'I really love the sense of ceremony in this installnt, whether it's the electronic tactical briefing before the start or the mission na display before each level starts, it's just too cool....'
'Pew can't really be considered a recruit anymore, right?'
'Please be humane, don't use beginner difficulty again, it's so embarrassing, I'm almost ashad to admit I watch your stream'
'Do you think he feels ashad? After all, he's the strear who publicly switched difficulties at the expo, would he feel ashad?'
'HAHAHAHAHAHA number one in going easy on himself, imdiately choosing beginner difficulty to take it easy'
'.....'
Amid the audience's discussions!
Pew on his end only felt the sll of gunpowder reaching him.
The unique cold steel sensation of icy weapons and the smoky sll of exploded bullet prirs made him take a deep breath.
All sensory neural connections established, blood pressure and heart rate vital signs normal.
Slowly opening his eyes, he saw an instructor nad Gaz wearing a blue baseball cap and a khaki bulletproof vest walking towards him:
"Good to see you, Soap. Grab that rifle from the table."
The rookie training level!
There wasn't much that needed elaboration here—just hip-firing, precision aiming, and so tactical movent tutorials.
The only thing that left a deep impression on Pew was what Instructor Gaz said—[Rember, in real combat situations, switching to your sidearm is always faster than reloading.]
"...OK, got it,"
After familiarizing himself with all the weapon actions, Pew nodded and followed Gaz outside, marveling as he walked:
"Truly worthy of being Golden Wind's highest-investnt work. The shooting feel and weapon feedback are practically identical to reality. The only difference might be a slight recoil adjustnt for gaplay purposes..."
If this were said in Huaguo, it might just be strear boasting with low credibility.
But don't forget, as soone long residing in the United States, a country without gun restrictions, Pew is quite authoritative regarding the realism of gun handling.
Perhaps it's because too much ti has passed since Golden Wind's last fully realistic pure shooting ga.
After all, since "PUBG," most shooting gas produced by Golden Wind have been sci-fi or fantasy thed, like "Titanfall," "APEX," "Garden Warfare," and "Overwatch."
Although weapons in these gas are also based on reality, they ultimately have different models and paraters, making it hard to find a realistic feel.
Therefore.
This experience using the G36c and USP.45 in hand left Pew with deep impressions and constant praise.
And as he followed Gaz, pushing open the closed shooting range door—
Rumble—!
Instantly!
The incoming sunlight made him squint slightly, raising his hand to shield his eyes.
The sll of dust hit his face, carrying a dry and sowhat choking odor.
In the distance, golden-red sunlight poured down through the slowly rising Osprey aircraft propellers, creating cold Tyndall effects.
Nearby, an M1A1 main battle tank's tracks rumbled loudly, its huge sand-yellow hull advancing, passing by an armored personnel carrier.
"Holy shit—"
This was Pew's first ti entering such a fully ard military camp.
Everything before him made him feel genuinely novel and shocked.
Weapons not unfamiliar in other gas.
But in Call of Duty, both the handling and feedback made Pew exclaim with delight.
Especially that C4!
According to Sergeant New Castle, this car used for testing explosive power was donated for free by his wife.
"Your wife is quite sothing then..."
After installing the C4, Pew grinned, naturally hiding behind the sergeant, sneakily peeking out and raising the detonator.
The audience was speechless—
'Pew frowns and positions the sergeant in front of him (dog head)'
'What kind of human shield is this?'
'Sergeant New Castle: Brother puts you in his pocket, you throw brother in the ditch?'
'Brother connects heart to heart with you, you play mind gas with brother'
'You're really despicable...'
'Can you fucking be human?'
'For the S.A.S., recruiting soone like you is indeed bad news'
'The sergeant really drew the short straw...'
'.....'
Amid all the complaints!
Click.
BOOM—!!!
Mrs. New Castle's car instantly exploded!
A visible shockwave instantly distorted the air, towering flas suddenly soared, a fireball billowed upward, and Pew even felt the ground beneath his feet tremble!
"What the fuck—!"
This is way too powerful!
Pew shook his head, patting his ears ringing from the blast, astonished by the shocking physical feedback effects in this installnt.
This ti, Golden Wind once again upgraded the connection between their work and the Yiyou×2.
As friends who frequently engage in warfare would know, when people experience massive explosions, they don't just feel tinnitus.
This is because various organs in the human body have their own natural frequencies. When external sounds contain frequency components matching the heart's natural frequency with sufficient energy, it causes resonance in the heart.
Now, Golden Wind has presented this physical sensation.
Although judging from their passing of human hazard risk assessnts, Golden Wind's thod of achieving this sensation isn't about making players' hearts actually resonate, being able to create this 'pseudo-resonance' feeling is already another technological advancent.
This was sothing Pew hadn't experienced in the previous demo version.
And based on his understanding of Golden Wind, whenever Golden Wind applies these strange technological capabilities to seemingly ridiculous details, it ans they definitely have bigger things planned.
Like real battlefield orchestration of guns and artillery?
Or like—
A flash of inspiration struck Pew, rembering the huge mushroom cloud at the end of the promotional trailer.
I..........
Pew seed to understand what Golden Wind's real purpose was for creating this part of the physical feedback.
Thinking this!
Pew also completed the live-fire shooting series of experiences, following instructions to arrive at a barracks building and pushing open the door......
"Ah—haha, Money Man!"
As the door opened!
A familiar face appeared before Octane.
Correct!
Waiting for him in the comprehensive training ground was formally the "Captain Price" who led him on his first special forces mission in the demo version!
(Price, English na Captain Price. Since "Price" contains the aning of "price, cost," players sotis call him "Money Man.")
However, at this first eting, Captain Price obviously didn't know Soap yet, looking him up and down:
"Soap.... hmm.... what the hell kind of na is that? How did a bloody rookie like you pass the selection for the Special Service Team?"
"Hey—you old bastard?"
Octane here was still grinning ingratiatingly, only to be insulted imdiately, instantly covered in black lines.
And Captain Price across from him didn't bother with him, waving his hand:
"Next is your CQB comprehensive test. Get ready, I'll ti you from the observation room."
With that!
Captain Price left casually, leaving behind one last remark:
And the next mont!
Before Octane could even speak!
The live stream audience couldn't sit still anymore!
Comprehensive training! Hahahahaha dreaming back to TTF.....
'Huh? The Instructor Gaz from earlier is the team's best record holder, aning..... Lastimosa?'
'As everyone knows! Instructors and record holders who ntor protagonists in Golden Wind gas don't tend to have good endings...'
'Right now, above Instructor Gaz's head—【Danger】'
'Lastimosa: What a pity, couldn't let Ash have her fill of fun...... Listen....'
'Damn! HAHAHAHAHA! When will I ever see this and not laugh, dammit!'
'What kind of Two-Point-Five Lastimosa is this (dog head)'
'Will Instructor Gaz also die in later operations?'
'Look at it from another angle, at least this way Money Man is safe (dog head)'
