In fact, Zhong Ming has always attached great importance to the use of AI in games.

Other designers in the world have been particularly cautious about the use of AI, perhaps because of the intellectual crisis.

But Zhong Ming has no resistance to AI, but has been urging the program team of Shimmer Studio to research and recruit people to study AI technology, and add AI technology to all games.

Because in Zhong Ming's view, AI is one of the future development directions of games.

For single-player games, the addition of AI can build a more realistic world for players, and NPCs in single-player games are no longer marionettes; For online games, the addition of AI can become the cornerstone of the bottom of the matchmaking system pyramid, making the entire matchmaking system more stable.

Therefore, from "City Guardian Battle" to "Xuanjia Project", Zhong Ming has made full use of the AI system as much as possible. So far, Shimmer Studios has been able to make very high-end AI.

Especially in FPS games like "Xuanjia Project", the difficulty of the AI is better adjusted, and the difficulty is lower than that of strategy games like "City Guardian Battle".

If you want to increase the strength of the AI in "Xuanjia Project", it is actually very simple, first of all, some of the most basic game content, such as picking up weapons and accessories, as long as you give each gun a default score, the AI will automatically replace these guns;

The second is the AI marksmanship, the highest-end AI marksmanship can be as accurate as a script and hanging;

Finally, in terms of reaction, awareness, etc., the reaction speed of the AI can also be adjusted, and the higher the level, the more the AI will find cover and move to avoid bullets when the battle breaks out.

These contents are not difficult to do, and at the same time, the difficulty of each AI enemy in the game is dynamically adjusted according to the player's level score, the player level is low, the AI is weaker, but it will still retain one or two powerful AI, so that the player will not win too easily; As the player's level increases, the level of the AI will also increase simultaneously, and there is no upper limit to this improvement, and the AI will always become stronger with the player.

Zhong Ming told Tang Ying that the way to improve marksmanship is this.

……

In the afternoon, Zhong Ming came to Tang Ying's residence.

Zhong Ming's fingerprints had been recorded in the door lock, so after Zhong Ming knocked on the door twice, he found that there was no response inside, so he opened the door directly and entered.

Tang Ying was lying on the sofa in her pajamas, and the live broadcast of the Linghu live broadcast platform was playing on the TV.

"Huh? Mr. Zhong, what else are you knocking on, didn't you record your fingerprints? ”

Tang Ying thought it was a courier or something, but when she turned her head and saw that Zhong Ming was coming, she didn't move and continued to lie on the sofa.

"I'll give you this." Zhong Ming directly threw the moving disk in his hand to Tang Ying.

Tang Ying reached out to catch it and sat up from the sofa: "What is this?" ”

"Install it on GS1 and you'll know."

Tang Ying got up from the sofa, plugged the mobile disk into the GS1 interface, and then entered the GS1 to check, and found that a program was already installed, and the installation was completed in a few minutes.

Next to the original "Xuanjia Project", there is another icon of "Xuanjia Project".

"Huh? Mistaken, right? Or is it the Xuanjia Project? Tang Ying was stunned for a moment.

"Make no mistake, go in and play and you'll see the difference." Zhong Ming sat on the sofa and watched TV.

Tang Ying took down the gun simulator a little inexplicably, pulled the trigger on the new "Xuanjia Project" icon, and entered the game.

To her great surprise, this time the game did not jump out of the shimmer game platform first, nor did it appear on the login screen, and directly entered the game's selection interface.

Moreover, all gun skins and character skins in it are unlocked.

Tang Ying was confused and chose her role, and the other two teammates also chose the role.

When she saw the names of her teammates and the champion team, Tang Ying found that their names were very distinctive, all in the form of AI+ numbers.

For example, the three members of the champion team are AI1, AI2, and AI3. And Tang Ying's team is AI34 and AI41.

After entering the game, Tang Ying found that the communication between AI34 and AI41 was much more frequent than that of teammates in the usual game!

From the beginning of the skydive, AI34 and AI41 began to mark and suggest various skydive locations, but after Tang Ying handed over the command of the skydive, they immediately handed it back.

Tang Ying had no choice but to choose her own skydiving location.

Once on the ground, AI34 and AI41 quickly search around, tag items, and tag enemies......

"There's an energy bullet here."

"There's a backpack here."

"There are gunshots in the N direction, there may be an enemy in this position."

The markers on the map flashed quickly, and Tang Ying quickly digested the information while picking up things on the ground.

It doesn't feel right, these two people are too active, right?

Tang Ying had never played the GS1 simulator version of Project Xuanjia before, but she had never met such a teammate. Regardless of whether the previous teammates have good marksmanship, they are basically looking for things, and only when they encounter good things that they can't hold or see enemies, they will mark them on the map.

But these two teammates are completely different, just like comrades in the real army, communicating and reporting the situation at any time, and this tactical literacy is simply leveraged.

"Why did these all start with AI? Could it be that this is a stand-alone version? All enemies inside are AI? ”

"But...... Can AI do it so well?? ”

Tang Ying soon realized that the "Xuanjia Project" she was playing was likely to be a stand-alone version, because she didn't need to log in, all the skins and gun skins in the game were fully unlocked, and the names of everyone she saw were in the form of AI + numbers.

But to Tang Ying's surprise, these AIs are very perfect, each of their actions seems to have a strong purpose, and any wind and grass around them will communicate in real time, and in all aspects, they are even more reliable than real players!

It is normal for Tang Ying to be surprised, because similar AI has never been done in "The Way of the Gun God", so most players simply don't know that the AI in the game can do this kind of thing.

In fact, this level of AI can already be applied to games, but except for Zhong Ming, other designers don't like to use it.

Tang Ying continued to scavenge for materials, and each time the safe zone was reduced, AI34 and AI41 would each mark a suggested location for relocation, but they would follow Tang Ying's choice.

For example, if Tang Ying decides to go somewhere, then these two AIs will also choose this place as their destination, and they will not rush to that side directly, but will always stay within a certain distance of Tang Ying's vicinity.

Originally, Tang Ying felt very relieved, but as soon as she fought, it was completely different.

The marksmanship of these two AIs is sparse!

Of course, it can't be said that the human body is completely stroked, but basically when these two AIs are gunned against other AIs, no matter how much blood they can kill the opponent's AI, they will definitely be the losing side.

So every time he encounters an enemy, he has to deal with it with Tang Ying, and if Tang Ying falls first, then the entire squad will not be far from being wiped out.

But fortunately, when Tang Ying was shooting against other enemies, he didn't feel completely invincible.

Indeed, the enemy's marksmanship is also quite accurate, especially the oppressive force is very strong, as long as they find Tang Ying's traces, they will frantically pour bullets in this direction, as if bullets don't need money.

But as long as Tang Ying moves quickly, finds cover, or interferes with some projectiles, these AI's marksmanship will be greatly reduced.

In the first game, Tang Ying killed four people, and the team was 7th.

Tang Ying came out of GS1 and said in surprise: "Mr. Zhong, this is the method you told me to practice guns?" ”

Zhong Ming nodded: "Well, the training ground of the Xuanjia Project, do you like it?" ”

"I like it! Is it all AI? Tang Ying asked.

"Yes, it's all AI, and their strength will dynamically adjust according to your strength. The stronger you are, the stronger these AIs will be. Moreover, there is a review in this game. ”

"Recap? Teacher Zhong, tell me about it. ”

Tang Ying pulled Zhong Ming into GS1 to study the function of review.

The space inside the GS1 emulator is not small, because the Vientiane treadmill ensures that the player will not touch the screen during strenuous exercise, but if there are two people coming in, it is still a bit cramped.

Tang Ying was in front, Zhong Ming could only be behind her, and she only felt a vague aroma quietly drilling into her nose.

Tang Ying took the pistol simulator to Zhong Ming: "What do you think of the review?" ”

"Here, there's a button here after the game is over."

Zhong Ming took the pistol simulator and pointed to the review interface.

The so-called replay is nothing more than replaying the entire game process before, but you can choose yourself or other AI to watch the game.

During the viewing period, a large amount of information will constantly appear, which is automatically analyzed by the system according to the surrounding environmental information.

The screen reads: "Gunshots were heard from the N direction, and from the sound it was possible to tell that the enemy was using an auxiliary pistol at a distance of about 300 meters." It can be roughly inferred that the enemy is in the abandoned gathering field. ”

"Wait, how can you hear this......" Tang Ying did hear a few vague sounds, but he could vaguely judge the direction from which the gunshots came, but the two messages of "auxiliary pistol" and "300 meters" were absolutely inaudible.

Zhong Ming explains: "The sound of each gun firing is different, and the sound of the gun decays as the distance increases. The farther away the gunshots go, the more vague the direction becomes. The limit of what a normal rifle can hear is about 450 meters, while a long-range, powerful gun like an auxiliary pistol and a sniper rifle can still hear a noticeable sound at about 600 meters without a silencer. ”

"This ...... The concubine can't do it......" Tang Ying couldn't help but support her forehead.

Zhong Ming smiled: "It's easy to say, there is also a special listening trainer in this program." There are all the gun sounds in it, and you can go and practice it over and over again. Don't rush to look at that for now, let's continue to watch the review. ”

"Uh-huh, okay." Tang Ying nodded hurriedly.

As the timeline moves forward, a variety of review messages continue to appear on the screen.

A large part of the information is about the situation in the field, which is constantly accumulated, and the other part is information about marksmanship and body skills.

"According to the skydives, there are two teams in the valley; According to the gunfire and kill information, the two squads exchanged fire immediately after they landed, with one squad completely wiped out and the other squad killed. The valley is a resource-rich area, so the surviving team is most likely well-equipped and ready to resurrect their teammates at a nearby respawn point. ”

“…… According to information Nos. 1, 34 and 112, there is a high probability that there will be an enemy directly in front of the current security zone, and in order to avoid being ambushed, the best option here should be to make a detour to the northeast and enter the safety zone in a roundabout way. ”

"The player's marksmanship here is lower than his average, and the hit rate is poor, probably because of the panic caused by the sudden appearance of enemies at close range, so it is recommended to practice close combat."

"The player didn't find cover in the first place, and although they were able to determine the enemy's location, it was too late."

All kinds of review information made Tang Ying look confused.

Too detailed!

Less than 20% of the review information is analyzing Tang Ying's marksmanship, and some low-level mistakes such as not changing direction repeatedly, changing speeds, not finding cover, marksmanship strokes, etc., are all clearly pointed out.

And the other 80% of the review information is analyzing the intelligence data in the game!

From the beginning of the parachute jump, the information that there were several teams of people in each position was generated, and the results of the battle of these people could be judged from the gunfire and killing information, and all kinds of information and intelligence were superimposed, and although the entire battlefield was changing, it could be reflected in the intelligence simultaneously.

Of course, the system analyzes the information that the player may obtain, not all the information on the battlefield, that is, the system filters the intelligence from the player's first perspective, for example, the gunfire at a distance of 1,000 meters, the player can't hear it at all, so the system will naturally not include it in the category of intelligence.

It is impossible for ordinary players to achieve this level, but as long as they do 50% or even 30%, the decisions made by players will also be improved by leaps and bounds.

"So there are so many doorways in here? All of this can be used as intelligence to determine the next move? I've always been free to go wherever I want......"

Tang Ying felt that her three views were about to be subverted, and she used to play "Xuanjia Project" like walking at night with her eyes closed, all because of her courage!

Tang Ying turned around slightly, and unconsciously leaned back, she was still wearing thin pajamas, her neckline was snow-white, and her back was leaning against Zhong Ming, which made Zhong Ming feel a little soft.

Zhong Ming: "...... Let's try the listening exerciser. ”

After exiting the review, there is a more hidden button on the initial page, and after clicking it, you will enter the module of the listening exerciser.

This module is very simple, there are no other enemies, and you don't need to fight, you can choose any location on the map with a single click.

Then, there will be gunshots around, and the type of gun, the distance, the length of the gun, and other factors are completely random.

After that, 9 options will appear on the screen, and only one is the correct answer, which is very confusing.

On the far right side of the screen, there's also a row of buttons that you can tap to listen to the sounds of various guns up close.
