1 Barbarian Camp
On December 1, 2049, "Imperial Expedition: The Age of Rising", a real-time strategy game developed by China Shengshi Group, was officially launched and operated in more than 200 countries and regions around the world. The charging model is free (the game value-added store sells virtual value-added products).
Shengshi Group is the world's top online game company, and the games it develops have naturally attracted the attention of countless game fans around the world. During the beta test period in the first month of operation, 80 million game registration codes have been preemptively registered, and it is currently the most watched and anticipated holographic virtual network game in the world.
After only a month-long small-scale beta, "Empire" invited 2,000 first-class professional players from Asia, the Americas, Europe and other regions, 3,000 game guild presidents, heads of online game studios, 2,000 hardcore empire gamers, and 3,000 specially invited rich players, a total of 10,000 people to participate in the closed beta.
Although there is only one small-scale closed beta, the vast majority of players have not yet experienced the charm of this game, but according to the introduction of the game guide on the official website of Shengshi and a large number of internal test pictures, it can be clearly seen that it is a collection of "Age of Empires", "Earth Empire", "Fortress", "Civilization" and other game history of the most classic single-player real-time strategy game essence, developed and developed. So as long as you have played real-time strategy games, it is easy to get started with this online version of "Expedition to Empires".
Qin Xiaobai is a world-class professional player, ranking ninth on the TPP list of the World Professional Player Rankings. After selecting many online games on the market, he decided to play this new production of "Empire" in Shengshi.
If you have to add a more accurate positioning to the general title of "professional gamer", then it is accurate to say that he is a "munitions-based, businessman-type" professional gamer, who likes to sell virtual products including cold weapon weapons, equipment, hot weapon munitions, and even military combat NPC units in world-class virtual games. In the game "Empire", it is no exception.
Low-key and pragmatic, this is his habit. Despite his strength, few people knew about his existence, or rather ignored his existence
Qin Xiaobai put on a holographic helmet ten minutes in advance and boarded the 6 "Empire" virtual game hall. At 12:00 p.m., the Empire server opened on time.
"Please enter the name of the game character!"
"Little White"
"Registration successful. Please choose the country of games. There are 195 different civilizations to choose from, each with its own characteristics and different strengths and strengths. The list of 195 civilizations is as follows: Greece, Babylon, China, Egypt, Rome, India, Great Britain, France, Germany, Spain, Netherlands, Portugal, United States, Russia"
"China"
"Registration successful. Has your face, shape, age, height changed? ”
As a professional gamer, every second of entering the game is precious, and Qin Xiaobai will not be bored enough to spend time on inconsequential content such as modifying his appearance, he immediately replied.
"No!"
"The setting is over, and the game character enters Expedition of Empires: Age of Rise!"
The whole registration process took only 5.3 seconds, and the game character was registered and began to log in 6 to enter the game. At the same time, tens of millions of players around the world are also frantically boarding the game 6 to compete for early release time
In the virtual hall, Qin Xiaobai was shrouded in a beam of white light and entered the novice map.
The light faded, and after three seconds, he opened his eyes.
The daylight hours in and out of the game coincide at 12 noon.
The sky was clear, the sun was high, and Qin Xiaobai was now in a sparse subtropical jungle, surrounded by tall trees and shrubs and berries, and he could also hear the sound of the sea breeze and waves. Players who have played the closed beta know that the newbie map is the island map.
Qin Xiaobai quickly looked at himself and couldn't help but smile dumbly.
He now carried a large and heavy wooden stick in his hand, half of his body covered by a loose buckskin around his waist, and nothing else, bare-chested and barefoot, living out the sight of a primitive barbarian struggling in prehistoric times 50,000 years ago.
If two players encounter each other in the jungle and suddenly see each other's strange dresses, I am afraid that they will be shocked.
However, this is precisely what makes the game of Empires the most appealing.
In this game, each player has to start from the prehistoric era 50,000 years ago and build their own base. It progressed to the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, the Bronze Age, and entered the Imperial Age, the Industrial Age, the Modern Age, and the Future Era. With a total of 12 eras and a time span of 50,000 years, it can be said that it is a real-time strategy online game with an incomparably long historical time span.
The weapons of battle also range from the most rudimentary wooden sticks, stones, and stone spears in the Stone Age, to the bronze guns and knives of the Bronze Black Iron Age, to the muskets, cannons, fighters, and tanks of the Industrial Age, to satellites, aircraft carriers, mecha soldiers, and interstellar warships in the future era.
The means of transportation also range from the simplest walking, to horse-drawn carriages, to automobiles, ships, to modern transport planes, flying all over the world.
They live in the most rudimentary tents, thatched huts, and villages, to modern urban agglomerations, and even space cities.
Combat modes range from primitive tribal strife with a dozen people to massive imperial wars with millions of people. A "Empire" condenses the epitome of mankind's survival competition for 50,000 years.
Now that the game has just begun, all players are competing on the common point of prehistoric times.
Regarding the future, Qin Xiaobai didn't think too much about it, and opened his inventory.
Hero: White (Player)
Level: Level 0
Health: 100hp
Attack: 2
Defense: 1
Equipment: Deerskin, large wooden sticks
Inventory: 10 flint stones, 1 camp order
The two things in his inventory are very useful things. Flint stones can be used to raise bonfires so that beasts do not dare to approach to avoid being attacked as much as possible.
The camp order is used to establish a prehistoric barbarian tribal camp, and allows the player to have a primitive tent to attract barbarian farmers to settle in the tribal camp, and also allows the population to hide in the tent from direct attacks by wild beasts.
Every player has both of these things.
If the tent in the camp is destroyed by a beast or an enemy, then it is a pity that you can only buy a camp order from the Empire game value-added store for 10 yuan to get a new tent. (A player can only have one tent at a time, and reusing the camp order will not be valid, and they will not be able to get the bonus items in the tent.) )
In fact, military operations in this game are very frequent. At the beginning of the game, the player must spend a lot of energy defending their tent from enemies and beasts, and when they have enough defenses, they will start clearing the beasts or fighting other players.
The first step in the Empire game is to use the camp order and recruit nbsp in the tent inside the camp; After Qin Xiaobai checked the items, he took out the camp order and began to prepare to build his own camp.
He didn't go far, just looked at the surrounding jungle environment, and stood directly in place to use the camp order.
Anyone who has read the official forum game guide for Empires will know that in the jungles of prehistoric times, there were many dangerous beasts, such as wolves, tigers, leopards, pythons, and so on. Most of them have higher combat power than humans, and their HP is thicker. A single person can't defeat these beasts, and even the most ordinary wolf can kill a human.
The way to get safe is as simple as staying at the Advent location. This Advent location, which the system chooses for you, is normally free of beasts. Players can then choose the emptiest place within their field of vision and build their own camp in a safe place.
The camp order turned into a white light and disappeared.
A tattered animal skin tent with a tall spire appeared in front of Qin Xiaobai.
Qin Xiaobai smiled and looked at the torn tent with great interest. This tent is his camp on the Empire Starter map, and everything he does in this game will start from this camp.
