Agreeing to Create Bad Games, What the Hell Is ‘Titanfall’? Chapter 436: World War II Begins! Blitzkrieg against Cameroo

The storm is coming!

Just as the dia has said!

With Golden Wind announcing the dissolution of their Golden Engine developnt team,

Unprecedented gloom hangs over Golden Wind and the entire Huaguo gaming circle!

Dark thunderclouds gather over the 9.6 million square kiloters of land!

Vivendi, holding the largest comprehensive gaming enterprise across both hemispheres, has dispatched Kora—a company with long-standing grievances against Golden Wind!

They intend to set foot in Huaguo from another dinsion, seeking revenge for Golden Wind's past occupation of Ginza and their triumphant gallop through Tokyo!

Pursuing victory relentlessly!

It must be said.

After the major reshuffle, Kora's upper managent—from Chairman Ito Suke to the new President Seiichi Nakamura—far surpasses the forr President Uekoe Kagemasa, who now lives incognito in Eastern Europe, in overall strength.

Not only are they more ruthless and sharp in tactics, accurately targeting Golden Wind's weaknesses for relentless sieges and attacks.

But their sense of timing and overall strategy is exceptionally cunning!

Right when Golden Wind announced the engine team's dissolution, shocking the entire gaming circle and throwing the Huaguo gaming industry into chaos, with only one month left until the Huaguo C-Expo!

Kora pressed their advantage and launched promotions for their flagship title!

And this ti!

"Conflict Zone," personally overseen by Seiichi Nakamura, is no longer comparable to works by the likes of Yamamoto and Koizumi!

From the very beginning of the trailer!

The sight of a massive military transport aircraft trailing colored smoke across the sky was enough to make players watching the trailer light up with excitent!

Paired with the the song specially composed for the ga by the currently popular Korean boy band VIXX, the trailer exploded with chat barrage right from the start!

'Wow—amazing! It's actually Battle Royale! I guessed it as soon as the plane appeared!'

'Such an impressive opening! Feels like they put APEX's kill trails on a plane!'

'The visuals are so vibrant, looks really good!'

'Ahhhhhhhhh—it's VIXX's specially composed the song! My favorite boy band!'

'Feels very modern, very dynamic...'

'But it doesn't seem much different from regular Battle Royale gas??'

...

However!

Just as they said this!

Accompanied by dynamic electronic R&B!

The aircraft door opened, countless players parachuted from the sky, descending from the plane with dazzling light trails!

Following the sa three-player squad setup, soldiers in various outfits descended one after another.

Intense firefights quickly erupted across the vast map!

Rat-a-tat-tat—!

!! Boom!

Kaboom—!!!

It's worth ntioning that in the main art style of "Conflict Zone," Seiichi Nakamura seed to have drawn particular inspiration from "Overwatch."

Bright visuals, rich colors, overall leaning toward a light futuristic style.

Combined with the distinctly Korean boy band-flavored music, a chaotic yet intense large-scale battlefield unfolded before the players' eyes!

Of course!

If the ga had stopped here, rely eting players' expectations for Battle Royale gas in a standard way.

Then what followed was the part that made players scream!

—Click!

As one soldier perford a slide, arriving beside a random airdrop.

With a click, the airdrop crate opened.

Inside appeared a drone about the size of a shoebox.

This wasn't unfamiliar to players—drones are equipnt in PUBG, while in APEX, drones are even Lifeline's ability.

But the next mont!

Bzzzt—!!!

As the drone took to the air!

Whoosh—

An electronic pulse spread across the soldier's minimap.

Imdiately after!

All red dots in the building area were marked on his minimap!

Electronic reconnaissance drone!

Rat-a-tat-tat—! Rat-a-tat!

Relying on the drone, this soldier moved as if he had wallhacks, charging left and right as if entering an unguarded territory!

However, just as he was enjoying the slaughter and wanted to cross the main road to assault the opposite building area!

Vroom vroom vroom—!!!

Suddenly, the sound of rotor blades echoed overhead!

Looking up, a sleek, light futuristic-style unmanned helicopter hovered directly above him,

Whoosh-whoosh—Kaboom—!!!

The unmanned helicopter's cannon rotated, its terrifying firepower instantly swallowing the drone soldier!

anwhile, on the roof of the opposite building area, a fat soldier stood beside a scattered airdrop crate, holding a remote control in his hand,

That's right!

This unmanned ard helicopter was also sothing he got from an airdrop!

But!

Before his smile could fade!

Whoosh—

Suddenly, a strange sound echoed from the sky, like a muffled thunderclap.

"What—?"

Puzzled, the fat guy looked up.

He saw a missile descending from the do above, crashing toward him like a teor!

Kaboom—!!!

Above the do!

A gunship aircraft circled past, overlooking the battlefield crisscrossed with various airdrop supports!

Vroom—!!!

Seeing this!

The audience erupted in astonishnt—

'OHHHHHHH—support from airdrops?!'

'OMG! Is that an AC-130? You can actually get sothing like that from airdrops?'

'Oh my god, I can't even imagine how satisfying it would be to deploy one of these in Battle Royale!'

'Recon drones, unmanned ard helicopters, and gunships! God! Did they put COD's ard support into Battle Royale?'

'Unbelievable! This looks absolutely fascinating!'

'Damn, it's such a Frankenstein! The mode is PUBG's, the art style is OW's, the airdrops are COD's?!'

'Don't say it! Don't you dare say it!'

'Bad news: Frankenstein monster; Good news: They stitched everything together.'

'Damn... isn't this basically stealing Old Thief's thunder?!'

'You little Japanese really know how to stitch things together!'

'The key is... cough... this damn thing... looks... kinda fun...'

'Yeah... definitely......'

...

Oh no!

Kora actually figured out how to stitch things together properly!

Without a doubt!

As soon as this trailer dropped, players' eyes lit up!

The light futuristic style, the currently hottest FPS ga type—Battle Royale, plus the ard support that previously amazed countless people in COD and had them shouting how novel it was!

You could call it a Frankenstein monster, you could say it's copying Golden Wind's ideas.

But you absolutely cannot deny—

It's definitely a Battle Royale ga that gives people ample desire to play!

No "Silent Hill"-style failed imitation ending up as a poor copy!

No "Torii"-style emphasis on industry over gaplay!

No "Night Owl Island"-style forced implentation and intentional bugs!

For a mont!

Many players who followed and loved Golden Wind couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness.

Kora has evolved.

Although they loved Golden Wind and hoped Golden Wind could continue to shine brilliantly while fighting on ho turf!

The objective reality remained.

Golden Wind's reputation had reached an unprecedented low amid suspicion and discussion.

Even more terrifying, their old rival—Kora—had actually completed an evolution after a major reshuffle!

They no longer randomly used "I reckon" power.

Through imitating "Sekiro" and making a na with "Night Owl," Seiichi Nakamura, who now successfully occupied Kora's presidency, fully utilized his traditional skills!

He understood current gaming trends better than Yamamoto, he borrowed more extensively than Koizumi, and he had better grasp of timing than Uekoe Kagemasa!

Right at this mont when Golden Wind had fallen to rock bottom!

Right when dark clouds completely overshadowed the Huaguo C-Expo!

"Conflict Zone" was like a muffled thunderclap before the storm, explosively striking every Golden Wind fan.

That invincible posture was even despair-inducing...

...

And this!

"Is exactly our opportunity."

anwhile!

Golden Wind!

Ergency eting!

At the head of the conference table!

Gu Sheng and Shen Miaomiao sat side by side!

Below them, Moriya Tetsuya, Lu Bian, and Xu Dajiang—the three vice presidents—sat solemnly!

Further down!

Jiang Yun, Kailing, Jiang Shan—Golden Experience Studio!

Sean Connor, Karl Dennis, Ana Francisco—lancholy Blues!

The "Battlefield Storm: Rise" team had been waiting for this very mont!

For this.

They had lain dormant for two and a half months!

You said I focus on shady movie adaptations? Then I heavily promoted "John Wick," making John Wick known to everyone!

You said my engine bottleneck is unsustainable? Then right after engine developnt completed, without explaining any reasons, I directly announced the dissolution!

You said I'm shrouded in gloom and helpless about my flagship title? Then I completely sealed information, keeping tight-lipped without revealing any details about the flagship project!

Because we in Huaguo have an old saying—

If you want sothing to perish, you must first make it crazy!

Now!

Kora, who opened champagne at halfti long ago, convinced they already held victory in their hands, had reached peak arrogance!

According to currently available information, the trailer premiere was only the first step in their massive promotion campaign!

Afterward, they planned to completely imitate Golden Wind's past actions in Tokyo, hoisting their own flag high over Shanghai in Huaguo!

"And I, still say this,"

Under everyone's gaze, Gu Sheng—who had been manipulating information blockades behind the scenes with official cooperation, determining victory from a thousand miles away—slowly spoke:

"CJ Exhibition is our Huaguo's exhibition,"

"Huaguo is our Huaguo, Shanghai is our Shanghai,"

"Now, the timing has arrived,"

"If Cologne was our gaming industry's World War I without an engine, with heaven and earth not aligned,"

"Then this ti,"

"On our own land, at our own exhibition, with our own engine,"

"Heaven, earth, and man are all in our grasp,"

"Friends,"

"The initiative of war should return to our hands!"

As Gu Sheng's voice fell!

A long-prepared ssage was released across all dia, spreading everywhere—

[Golden Wind:]

[First title fully crafted based on Huaguo team's self-developed ga engine "Golden Engine"]

[Unprecedented next-generation 3S gaming experience—]

["Battlefield Storm: Rise"]
