Chapter 1409 Turned Into a Suffering Game
A good racing game has become a game of suffering.
Zhang Yan was also unwilling to give up. She didn't believe in evil and tried other methods.
Tried it with the keyboard and controller, but ended up going back to the steering wheel.
Because it's harder with a keyboard and gamepad!
Of course, as a qualified racing game, "Safe and Civilized Driving" has of course adjusted the keyboard and handle controls so that players can better control the vehicle.
This is a basic optimization that all racing games must do, because the keyboard and handle lack the precision of a steering wheel. For example, the keyboard can only be left to kill, right to kill, the accelerator to the end, and the brake to the end. In this case, if you want to turn and drift accurately at this time, you must rely on the optimization of the game itself to make the keys easier to achieve the real purpose of the player.
But even so, it's still hard!
Because this is the second test subject, not driving on the road.
The road is very wide, as long as you obey the traffic rules and follow the markings, there is no serious problem, but the second subject requires high-precision control of the vehicle.
Not to mention the novice, many old drivers who have been driving for many years suddenly have to go back to take the second test, and it is difficult to adapt to it all at once. At most, it is much faster to become familiar than a novice, but this familiar process cannot be omitted.
Can I pass Subject 2 in "Safe and Civilized Driving" with the keyboard and handle?
Passable, but requires very good driving skills.
For example, when reversing the car into the warehouse, you need to carefully observe the rearview mirror, infer the trajectory of the wheel movement, and fine-tune this trajectory.
Just "fine-tuning" this item can persuade many impatient players.
Because of the fine-tuning with the keyboard and handle, it is much more difficult than the steering wheel.
The method of driving school teaching is actually the method of taking the test. Most of the students do not really master the distance from reversing the car into the garage, but just memorize the markings by rote. In reality, many people still have to rely on the reversing image on the car.
In the game, the reversing and storage do not have those markings, and it all depends on the player's hard power.
Of course, it may be that the game makers consider that this operation is really difficult, so they maintain a certain limit of mercy for players: players can choose to use other perspectives to pass the driver's license test, such as the rear of the car.
In this way, the difficulty is actually greatly reduced.
But Zhang Yan doesn't believe in evil, so she will use the in-car perspective to complete the exam!
After all, in reality, there is no such thing as a rear view.
Moreover, there are already some people who have passed the driver's license test online and are sharing it. According to them, if they pass the driver's license test with different devices and perspectives, the system will record it. The inside view and the rear view are two different records.
Obviously, the gold content of passing the driver's license test from the perspective of the car will be higher.
Zhang Yan kept trying unrelentingly.
Fortunately, this is a game, not a reality. There is no need to make repeated test appointments. If you fail to pass subject two, you can continue to test until you pass the test.
With the sound of "failed in the test, please continue to work hard", Zhang Yan felt that his driving skills were improving little by little, and he recalled a lot of knowledge from the previous driver's license test, and a lot of muscle memory was also improved. got excited.
Finally, after six or seven attempts, she finally succeeded in passing subject two!
What surprised her was that the seemingly free items in the previous driver's license test caused her troubles, such as right-angle bends and S-bends. In the previous driver's license test, they were memorized directly, but now there is no point. The bit can be referenced, but not, and the line will be pressed if one is not careful.
After the subject two, there are subjects three and four.
Subject 3 is much simpler, which is to drive on the road normally, and follow the instructions on the screen to perform corresponding operations such as turning left and right, overtaking, etc. Not to mention using the steering wheel, it shouldn't be too difficult to use the keyboard and handle, which is much less difficult than Subject 2.
After subject three, there is subject four, which is related to safe and civilized driving and road traffic rules.
In the game, Subject 1 and Subject 4 are actually combined into one, and these test items are not called Subject 2, Subject 3, and Subject 4, but are called "Field Driving Skills Test" and "Road Driving Skills Test". And "traffic rules and common sense of safe and civilized driving".
The number of questions has also been reduced to only 50 questions.
This should be to simplify the game flow, otherwise the player will pass the subject one as soon as they come up, and the game experience will be too bad.
After all, many players have never memorized subject 1 at all, and they have to brush the questions or ask thousands of degrees first, then the game experience is too bad; and many old drivers can still pass subject 1 easily, but they will still be able to answer so many questions. Seriously affect the game experience.
After all, there are still 50 questions after the reduction!
Come up to test subjects two and three first, at least the player is driving.
But Zhang Yan seriously doubts whether this is useful or not. Because this subject 2 wants to pass the test, it is much more difficult to memorize than subjects 1 and 4!
Isn't putting Subject 2 at the top really to persuade players?
But anyway, this driver's license is finally down!
Zhang Yan let out a long breath and felt a sense of accomplishment from the bottom of his heart.
Of course, this sense of accomplishment is not comparable to the sense of accomplishment in reality when you pass the four subjects and get the driving book. After all, this is a game, but it has a very special feeling.
Her self-confidence has exploded like never before!
Because there is a certain degree of "exam-oriented education" in the actual driver's license test, many subjects are passed by rote, and the test in "Safe and Civilized Driving" is passed by hard power.
Therefore, after passing the driving test in reality, it may still be a bit empty if you really want to go on the road, and some people may need to be accompanied by an old driver.
But in the game, Zhang Yan felt that she was completely fine, and she could definitely hit the road safely!
After getting the driver's license, Zhang Yan got 240,000 start-up funds in the game, and can freely buy a family car.
Zhang Yan took a look and found that the available models are not as rich in reality. About 70% of them are fictitious brands, but they can vaguely recognize their prototypes in reality; while the remaining 30% are existing brands. Apparently it was authorized, but most of them are domestic automakers, and there are only a few foreign ones, and none of them are big brands.
When purchasing a vehicle, there is no bar chart of the parameters in other games, and the handling, acceleration, etc. are clearly displayed in an intuitive chart, but the parameter data when purchasing a car in reality is used.
Of course, limited by the price, these models are basically all family sedans and SUVs, no sports cars, and the appearance is similar.
With a budget of 240,000, the optional models are not much, but there are not many.
And it is best not to spend all of the 240,000. The official reminder said that the money can be earned in the future, but some money must be kept in the account for emergency use, for violation fines, accident compensation, etc. There can be a certain amount of credit and arrears, but it will still be repaid in the end.
Zhang Yan felt that her choice difficulties were a bit guilty.
When the budget is enough, you don’t need to choose so much. Anyway, you can just buy the classic models of the famous brand cars. No matter how bad they are, they can’t be much worse; but when the budget is short, it will be very embarrassing. , because picking and picking these models will always have small flaws of one kind or another.
Either the power is insufficient, the safety is slightly poor, or the appearance is not good-looking... In short, the budget is not enough, these are definitely not all-encompassing, but it has further stimulated Zhang Yan's difficulty in choosing.
"The magic car MINI? Wow, I really want to buy this, such a small one must be very good for parking, and the top version only costs about 40,000 yuan!"
"Hey, but buying this car will not affect the subsequent game flow, cheap is cheap, but the performance is a bit too weak."
"Forget it, let's consider a safer option."
"Huh? Isn't this a Pashat from Dazhong? The price is quite suitable. The new business version starts at 190,000, plus auto insurance and miscellaneous consumption, which is just within the budget, and there is still a little urgent money left. "
"That's it!"
Zhang Yan looked at several models and some new energy vehicles, and finally chose the Passat, which has a good reputation, as her first car.
Of course, this name is not called in the game, and the car logo has been slightly changed, but you can probably see its prototype.
Although this car is not suitable for girls to drive, it is said that in this game, you can make money by running an online car-hailing, and this car is very suitable.
If you really buy a magic car MINI, you will be very happy to drive yourself, but will the cost of running an online car-hailing be very low?
At that time, with the same mileage and little money, it would be embarrassing.
Moreover, the MINI is too cheap after all, and the safety is not very good. If you want to run a long distance in the future, you will not dare to go to the high speed.
After all, in this game, driving is both work and entertainment. As for the first car, first meet the needs of work, ensure a certain degree of business and safety, and then save a little money before seeking higher pursuits.
After choosing various options and painting according to your own preferences, you can directly drive on the road.
The license plate is also automatically installed, and allows players to freely customize it with random provinces, letters, and numbers.
It has to be said that it is a game after all, and this aspect is still very easy, and even gives Zhang Yan an illusion that "it turned out to be so smooth".
On second thought, isn't this what it should be? It's just a game!
It may be because the driver's license test in front was so torturous that it was a little more convenient in the back, which made Zhang Yan grateful.
After driving on the road, Zhang Yan's first feeling was, cool!
This feeling is very different from other racing games.
Other racing games start off with hurricanes on the road, which is really cool, but the subsequent experience is not much improved, it is nothing more than a more complicated track and faster enemies.
But "Safe and Civilized Driving" is different. After getting a driver's license for the first time on the road, I felt a sense of tension and anxiety, and after running for a while, I didn't even touch it!
You know, Zhang Yan is driving in other games, and this kind of small touch is inevitable.
