In the anticipation of the players, the official officially announced that the press conference on the war series will be held in Jinling.

On the eve of the press conference, the official website and promotional video of the war series were already online.

At the same time, TEU and Tianhe Network officials also revealed a news that if players on the PC platform use the TEU platform to purchase games, no matter whether they buy the oriental “Unification of the World” or the “Napoleon Expedition” with a European background, they can buy games for free. Get another game.

Get two games for the price of one game.

As soon as the news came out, countless players couldn’t help cheering.

Unlike EPIC, although many steam platform fans said they would not use TEU.

But more players don’t actually have much platform plot, and the experience of using TEU is not worse than that of the steam platform, and the game is cheaper, so why not use the TEU platform?

I don’t like the EPIC platform, just because the other party’s eating looks are ugly. All kinds of exclusives tell the players that they must come to my store if they want to eat. At the same time, some regions are locked. From the perspective of the company’s strategy, EPIC has not done anything wrong. What, but this does not prevent the players from scolding him.

Countless players began to discuss this news.

“TEU has spent a lot of money this time! A 3A masterpiece, buy one get one free, which is almost equivalent to a 50% discount on two games just launched!”

“Haha, Tianhe Network is so high, I originally wanted to buy two games, but I can’t pay for it next month, and now I get two games for one game.”

“Why is there only the TEU platform? No steam platform?”

“Are you stupid upstairs? Why should there be a steam platform? President Chu paid for the promotion of the TEU platform for the discount on the TEU platform. If you want a steam platform, then let Fatty G pay for it!”

It has to be said that no matter which country the player is from, everyone has the same attitude towards discounts, that is, welcome.

Even though the pre-sale has not yet started, but only the official news was released, the number of users on the TEU platform suddenly increased by about 2 million that day.

As for whether there are hoarders who specially created accounts among them, it is not clear.

No one can count on this. The steam platform claims to have more than 500 million registered users, but how many of them are small accounts that have been blocked for cheating and then re-registered, and how many of them are merchant machine accounts in some trading markets, or The gift trumpet automatically issued by the game hoarder?

These are impossible to count.

Amidst the heated discussion among players, Twitter and the official website released a new promotional video.

It’s not a promotional video rendered in time, nor is it a CG animation, it’s just a real machine demonstration.

Even on the screen, you can see how the operator controls the mouse and keyboard.

A real hands-on demo.

After seeing this promotional video, not only the players, but also some industry insiders who followed the news were also shocked.

Is this really a promo?

This is so hardcore!

“Damn it, I’ve always heard that there are some real machine demos, real machine demos, and this is the first time I’ve seen a video of a game being played like this.”

“Real-real machine demonstration! Two words hardcore!”

“By the way, when did Tianhe Network learn this kind of show routine?”

“No, shouldn’t your focus be on the game itself?”

After seeing the trailer, countless players started discussing it, but this was just the beginning.

Along with the display, the screen and operation interface of the game appeared in front of the players. The large sandbox map was used as the selection area, and then entered the loading interface to reach a sandbox-style map like Red Dead Redemption.

At the beginning, according to the ideas of the ruins and the mine studio team, the plan was to make a huge seamless map, but the technology and post-optimization are a big problem. If you do it forcibly, various logical conflicts will cause bugs. Definitely makes programmers want to commit suicide.

So in the end they scrapped that idea and instead split the map up and used one big sandbox-like map as a springboard for selection.

The blue sky, the sparkling lake, the green trees and grass, and the magnificent city.

From a visual point of view, the picture of the game is not very good, let alone compared with the dawn, even compared with the wilderness a few years ago, it is slightly inferior.

But before the players were disappointed, what was displayed next after the screen turned completely shocked the players.

In a dark area, there are tents all over the mountains and plains, stationed around a city, and specially opened roads.

The equipment for siege, the war horse, after zooming out the camera, the shock brought by it is definitely not that simple.

At the same time, the lens changes again, and the picture displayed on the computer screen becomes another picture.

Noisy shouts, countless citizens rushed to the king’s guard with axes, kitchen knives and shotguns, shouting in French, “take the arsenal, take up arms, this is our only way of life”

Cannons from towers, angry townspeople.

And the player is manipulating an ordinary citizen to carry out this battle.

Then the camera changed again, and this time the character controlled by the players became a young soldier who was ordered by the Directorate to lead the army on an expedition to Italy.

This is Napoleon.

Countless players got a little excited and really participated in the big scene of the war.

It’s not the kind of strategy RTS that is like a bystander, or the kind that frames A’s past.

It’s not like in Three Kingdoms Warriors, the kind of war where soldiers are cut casually like grass.

The realistic war scenes have shocked countless players.

But that’s just the beginning.

The next scene is the incredible moment for players who are paying attention to this game all over the world.

Without waiting for them to go to the social platform to express their excitement, accompanied by a burst of magnificent BGM, Isengard, who is located in the northwest of Rohan and surrounded by Orthank Tower, appeared in front of the players. Saruman in the white robe came out from the top of the tower, raised his staff and shouted ‘March’.

In the middle of the night, the defenders of Helm’s Deep were stationed on the city wall.

This is the Battle of Helm’s Deep from The Lord of the Rings!

Countless players who recognized this scene couldn’t help but exclaimed.

From the night battle to the dawn, there was a call from afar, and Gandalf in the white robe led the reinforcements. At the same time, the video fell into darkness, and a line of words was displayed on the screen.

‘War Series MOD – Battle of Helm’s Deep (produced by Robert Studio, authorized)’

About this Lord of the Rings MOD, there is a little twist in its birth. This MOD was made by Robert, a loyal fan of Lord of the Rings. At the beginning of the production, the other party hoped to get the support of Tianhe Network, but then they got the help of Tianhe Network. But it was targeted by Warner, the copyright owner of Lord of the Rings.

In the end, Tianhe Network came forward to contact Warner, and Tianhe Network paid 2 million euros, and promised to use it for commercial profit, and then got the authorization from the other party. Follow-up MOD producers on the two wars can make Lord of the Rings theme MOD production, but not able to make profits.

But no matter what, it is worth it. The MOD itself may not be profitable, but it is not a loss to bring potential players.

What’s more, this itself is a copyright owned by Warner, and it is not unacceptable to pay a protection fee, although the protection fee is really expensive.
