There is a Problem with This Online Game Planning

[BT, Cooper, how's the situation, get it? Please reply. 】

[Cooper, this is Commander Sarah Brisger, if you hear this, please go to the bridge one kilometer north of you. 】

[You are the only key to turning defeat into victory, we are here to fold space-time weapons. 】

【we are coming. it's not finished yet. 】

Level in progress.

The voice of the rebel commander kept ringing on the communication channel.

By the end, she seemed apologetic.

But Jack Cooper fell on deaf ears, and the dialogue options never popped up.

He never said a word, just killing IMC soldiers all the way under the player's control.

And Kong Bo in front of the screen didn't want to answer either.

Even so far, the game process is not too long.

But the two protagonists in the plot are actually very well portrayed.

Not just BT.

And Jack Cooper.

Anyone who has played the game can probably clearly feel what kind of existence Jack Cooper is.

He is not a very extroverted protagonist in the traditional sense, on the contrary, he is a more autistic and introverted individual.

Because he has always been a rifleman with the lowest rank on the battlefield, and the environment itself does not allow much communication. Afterwards, he suddenly became a pilot, and he was even full of self-confidence.

Many levels ahead.

Jack Cooper and his colleagues have very little communication with their superiors.

Captain Lastimosa died, and he just buried him in silence.

In the first level of the signal tower, in the face of the compliments of his colleagues and the requests of the rebel troops, almost all BTs communicated. Jack Cooper remained silent from the beginning to the end.

And in the end, when the rebel commander wanted to transfer the BT to other qualified pilots, he didn't say anything.

Even occasionally, he must say something to his colleagues.

Generally very simple.

For example, when chasing an enemy ship ahead, if other pilots praised him, he would only reply briefly.

Very mechanical, just like facing a superior.

But only, when communicating with BT.

Jack Cooper will have a lot to say.

He would joke with BT, tease it to take shortcuts, find new equipment and say it is in love, jump into the water and let BT come down together, and teach it to give a thumbs up...

The communication between one person and one machine occupies almost all dialogue options.

During this time.

BT has gradually changed from a machine to a "human" with flesh and blood.

And Jack Cooper has gradually revealed his true side, and is no longer a cold name-"Rifleman Jack Cooper".

In a galaxy-level war, human life is just a number after all. Cooper and Titan BT are like a drop of water in the ocean. To be honest, one person and one machine are actually just little people in this war.

The Rebel Army still has countless Vanguard Titans, and many Iron Pilots.

But also because of this.

Under this cruel reality.

The two people's adventures together, and the faint warmth, are also set off to become more and more precious.

but now.

BT was destroyed right in front of...

How could Jack Cooper not be angry at this!

This makes the players who are equivalent to adventure together how can they not be angry!

At this time, silence and kill!

That's the best answer!

Jack Cooper just became a Pilot! Before that he was just a taciturn rifleman! Captain Lastimosa who trained him is dead! It was BT who accompanied him through these days!

fuck you.

Gritting his teeth, Kong Bo controlled Jack Cooper with unprecedented seriousness, and shot down all the enemies he saw on the road one by one.

Not one left!

Crazy poured out his anger.

until.

The voice of the rebel commander sounded again.

[There is also the last vanguard Titan in the machine. 】

[I want to call up the data core and prepare for the Titan to land. 】

See this conversation.

Knowing that the game is not over yet, and the holy cabinet has not been solved, the game will definitely not let the player lose the Titan hastily.

Even Kong Bo knew it deep down.

But still can't help but feel happy.

ah! ?

BT can still live! ?

In the game, he had already manipulated Jack Cooper to break through the entire line of defense.

And has come to the bridge one kilometer to the north.

And with that comes the rebel commander saying the Titans are ready.

The game prompts the player to land their Taita.

The sound of breaking through the air came.

An empty shell Titan without an intelligent core fell from the sky.

Jack Cooper came to this new Titan and installed the BT wisdom core that he had been holding in his hand.

Then, the system restarts.

The vanguard titan in front of him came alive.

It stood up slowly, looked at Jack Cooper, and said hello.

[Hi, Jack. 】

And from the very beginning, Jack Cooper, who had been silent even after repeated inquiries by the commander of the rebel army, finally spoke.

【Glad to see you back, BT. 】

[In fact, more than 25,000 new parts. BT-7274 activated and ready for battle - it's time to complete the mission. 】

BT replied, saying that more than 20,000 parts on his body were new, and at the same time raised the machine gun as thick as a pillar in his hand, put it on the ground, and opened the cockpit.

Kumbo presses the E key.

In the game, Jack Cooper jumped back into the cockpit with the help of a machine gun.

Viewing angle changes.

Everything familiar is back.

And the new BT also has a brand new weapon, a giant Gatling.

"ha."

Seeing this scene, Kong Bo couldn't help laughing. The anger in front of him turned into joy at this moment.

It is precisely because I have just lost that the reunion feels so good. It made him feel that the feeling of BT coming back is really great.

Even if it's just a machine.

And in the communication.

After a brief reunion.

The voice of the rebel commander sounded again.

The problem is not solved yet.

Even though the Rebels were firing on the IMC with all their might, there was still nothing they could do to stop the time-space folding weapon.

Now Jack Cooper had to get into the control room.

Otherwise, the planet where the rebels are located will be destroyed.

"Fuck, it's all up to me!"

Kong Bo complained: "Okay, I'm here, let me show you what is Tianchosen Iron Pilot!"

As he spoke, he manipulated the mecha and began to adapt to the new Titan equipment.

And after trying.

have to say.

Giant Gatling.

It's really cool!

A magazine has 150 rounds of bullets, theoretically holding it down can kill an enemy Titan in seconds!

This is a new experience that cannot be brought by the previous Titan equipment!

"I rely on it!"

Kong Bo held down the left mouse button, watched the barrel of the Gatling gun in front of him spin wildly, and the bullets poured wildly, and couldn't help but marvel.

And this level.

The Rebels finally worked, too.

They will provide fire support all the way Jack Cooper is on his way.

And Jack Cooper controlled by the player, with the new BT, new equipment, and the fire support of friendly forces, killed all the way from the outside to the inside.

Cut a dozen Titans in a row!

It's like killing a god.

And go indoors.

There is no way for air support to cover it.

Next, we can only rely on Jack Cooper and BT...

And at this time.

The top hunters have also delivered the holy cabinet, and the IMC has already begun preparations for the "space-time folding weapon".

And has set the target as the planet of the Rebels.

Success or failure is here!

With a little nervousness, Kong Bo controlled BT to come outside the control room.

The door to the control room opened.

Two top hunters happened to bring the holy cabinet.

Blisk, the founder of Apex Hunter, also noticed Jack Cooper coming to the door of the control room.

He once again mocked Jack Cooper's obsession with wanting to be a hero, and then said to his subordinates: "He is yours now, enjoy it slowly."

The camera zooms in.

That subordinate was none other than the top hunter who had just destroyed the old BT body - 'Sloan'.

Boss fight! Officially opened!

But for the players in front of the screen.

This tm is the moment of revenge!

"It's just you TM who make up the knife, right!?"

When Kong Bo saw the name of the boss, he immediately recalled the scene at the beginning of the level. He stopped playing Gatling and switched to the initial weapon he was most familiar with. He was fully prepared!

He wants it once!

The tm will whip the corpse!

But the level of nausea of ​​this boss was beyond Kong Bo's expectations.

Not only is the attack power and attack frequency high, but it also almost combines the characteristics of the previous bosses.

If there is residual blood, he will run away!

Then let the IMC's Titan consume the player's Titan blood, and then jump out.

And will frequently mock and abuse the players.

Very shameless.

And the other side.

The "Time-Space Folding Weapon" is already being prepared, and it will enter the next stage after a while.

There was a lot of tension.

The boss battle of this level was the most intense for Kong Bo.

Because he doesn't know if there is a time limit.

And he didn't want to die and do it all over again!

Fortunately.

Kong Bo is really familiar with BT's initial equipment.

And he is really calm.

Just a little grinding.

The blood of the boss "Sloan" was abruptly worn out.

When the blood volume of BOSS 'Sloan' turns red.

Kong Bo stopped his gun directly, and then controlled BT to rush forward, choosing to end the melee.

When the BOSS screamed before death, the mecha was scrapped under the shells of the BT, and it died completely.

"Cool!"

Kong Bo yelled directly and happily, as if taking a sip of iced Coke in summer, it was extremely refreshing.

Use his own way to treat his own body!

but.

There is not much time left for the players, BT and Jack Cooper to reminisce about the battle just now.

The top hunter has just been dealt with here.

there.

The voice of the rebel commander rang out.

[Cooper, take the Holy Ark away before starting it! quick! 】

There was absolutely no room to breathe.

at the same time.

The space-time folding weapon has entered the final stage.

About to launch.

It's not over yet!

Kong Bo hurriedly manipulated BT to the module containing the holy cabinet.

According to the game reminder, keep pressing the same button.

time does not wait.

BT began to use brute force, and directly violently removed the shell.

Accompanied by the loud noise of steel breaking.

The shell was removed, and the blue energy light of the 'holy cabinet' filled the eyes.

Immediately afterwards, a huge jet impact struck.

BT was caught off guard and fell to the ground.

At the same time, the three screens in the cockpit were affected and turned off one by one.

The screen went black.

[Cooper! BT! Have you received it? ? 】

The anxious voice of the rebel commander kept ringing.

When the screen comes back on.

BT's voice also rang.

But its sound is no longer smooth, but it seems to have reached the limit, full of stuttering and confusion.

[Cooper... the impact of the jet exceeds my... main internal system. 】

[Trying to restore the visual system. 】

[Vision system has been repaired——Fixed——]

[My analysis shows that throwing is the only way. 】

ah?

in front of the screen.

Kong Bo was taken aback.

BT, whose internal system was overwhelmed, kept repeating 'throwing is the only way'.

Various alternating numbers of 0 and 1 are constantly flashing on the player's screen.

When BT starts the auxiliary power of the mech, it is transferred to the backup energy source.

It finally said the next sentence.

[Cooper, do me a favor. 】

[My automatic navigation system is disconnected. 】

【Help me into the injection assembly room, we have to cooperate. 】

And with the words of BT.

In the game, the main agreement of the Titan, which the player knows for the first time on the Titan, begins to appear in front of the screen.

[Agreement 1, connecting to Iron Pilot: Iron Pilot Cooper——Connected]

And with the connection completed.

BT stood up slowly.

Under tragic music.

The voice of the commander of the rebel army sounded again, and they couldn't rush over in a short time.

The 'time-space folding weapon' must be destroyed internally, there is no other way.

And BT replied at this time, it has a way.

at the same time.

The second agreement is displayed on the screen in the cockpit.

[Agreement 2, stick to the mission. 】

And BT's method is very simple, that is, to expose the core of its own reactor, and destroy the stability of the holy cabinet in the center of the space-time folding weapon... Simply put, blow it up.

in front of the screen.

Kong Bo: "..."

in the game.

BT sent the coordinates to the rebel army, and at the same time, under the control of Jack Cooper, launched the launch pad in the control room.

The display screen is red.

Jack Cooper, driving BT, boarded the launch pad together.

at the same time.

The third main agreement of the Titans was displayed on the screen.

But there are only three errors above.

[Protocol three, error, error, error]

New dialog options pop up.

As for the first option, players are very familiar with it.

It is the first level of the game, the option when the player talks to BT...

[Don't worry, BT, I'm not going anywhere. 】

in front of the screen.

When Kong Bo saw the dialogue options, he realized something, his breath was stagnant, and he didn't want to choose.

I really don't want to choose.

However, at the last second, the last second of the countdown, he still chose the first one...

perhaps.

This is also a good ending.

A warrior has a will to die and dies generously.

Dialog selected.

Then, Jack Cooper's voice sounded, and he said softly:

[Don't worry, bt, I'm right here, I'm not going anywhere. 】

【Received, Iron Pilot. 】

BT's voice is as calm as ever.

at the same time.

Just showed wrong, wrong, wrong protocol three.

Start changing, start flashing again.

On the other side, a piercing hum sounded.

The launch pad starts charging.

Starting from the front end, a dazzling red energy light source is gradually lit up, the data board is constantly flashing, and the emitted energy is about to be fully charged.

Then.

emission!

And at the moment when BT and Jack Cooper were launched into the 'holy cabinet' by the launch pad.

in the cockpit.

The flashing panel finally finished loading.

Protocol one, connect to the pilot.

Agreement two, stick to the mission.

Agreement three, to protect Pilot...

And BT's voice sounded again.

[Agreement Three, Protect Iron Pilot]

The mecha was shot out, and it was on the way to the holy cabinet.

BT suddenly opened the cockpit, and then the mechanical hand reached through the hatch and grabbed Jack Cooper.

【What are you doing?】

Jack Cooper struggled, but to no avail.

He was caught out of the cockpit.

And BT raised Jack Cooper in mid-air, and clenched his fist with the other hand. At the same time, the wisdom core turned to look at him. The familiar lines, the words that BT most often talked about, sounded again——

【Believe me--】

Then, it threw Jack Cooper hard.

Jack Cooper, played by the player, quickly moved away from the holy cabinet, while BT flew directly into the holy cabinet under the tragic music.

Immediately afterwards.

A dazzling light flashed.

The explosion came with a bang.

BT blew itself up... along with the wisdom core.

...

in front of the screen.

Kong Bo was stunned.

Seeing this scene, I felt a little suffocated.

He didn't move even though it was the moment of escaping.

Because he didn't expect it.

This level.

It will come to such an end...

I lost BT at the beginning of the level, and my chest was filled with anger.

Then BT came back from the dead, whether it was Cooper or the players immersed in the plot, they just experienced the joy of reunion.

Immediately afterwards, I lost BT again...

BT sent Cooper, who was determined to die together, from the self-destruct...

When an action should be made through emotion, it is programmed to do it.

BT read out the cold agreement in the tone of a robot.

The familiar "Protocol Three" sounded together with the familiar "Trust me".

Kong Bo experienced a kind of shocking, indescribable but unable to calm down for a long time.

"Fuck..."

Kong Bo couldn't bear it anymore, and even felt his eyes were moist.

And when he looked back at the screen.

Seeing the evacuation coordinates marked by the commander of the rebel army, I thought of the action of BT sending coordinates to the rebel army just now.

I couldn't bear it anymore.

BT didn't even think about escaping, and it couldn't escape. It wanted to destroy the time-space folding weapon.

The reason for sending coordinates to the Rebels.

It was for Jack Cooper to escape.

BT everything is calculated.

"Fuck...you, you better have it behind! You better have tm behind you!!!"

Kombo yelled as he leaped quickly to the extraction site.

The voice was a little choked up.

His operation was a little deformed, but he still got on the evacuation plane.

The entire planet was destroyed because of the damaged weapons.

And next, it's gone.

It has ended……

When the customs clearance subtitles jump out.

Kong Bo was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't bear it anymore.

"Linmu Studio!!! You are simply not human!!! You are celebrating Chinese New Year! You... woo..."

soon.

In the room, Kong Bo's choked voice sounded again.

...

at the same time.

Mou Feng's house.

His progress is a bit slower, but he has reached the last few levels.

He was also excited for the Battle of Baitan, and shouted for the Iron Pilot Legion.

And the same.

Play to the last level.

When I heard BT say, 'Protocol three, protect Iron Pilot. ’ and ‘Trust me! '.

When you see the familiar mechanical hand stretching into the hatch, familiar grabbing, familiar throwing.

He also felt a little suffocated... a little teary.

In fact, in stand-alone games, companion NPCs are nothing new.

Whether it's the games of Lin Yao's previous life, such as the son in "God of War", Ellie in "The Last of Us", or Elizabeth in "BioShock".

Still the game here.

In fact, there are accompanying NPCs.

This type of NPC can generally reduce the player's sense of loneliness in the process of playing a stand-alone game, and can play a role in promoting key plots.

And the BT in "Titanfall" is undoubtedly this kind of role.

In fact, Mou Feng understood all these principles.

After all, he is also a practitioner in the game industry.

but.

No matter how much you know.

At the moment, these experiences are useless.

Because when he substitutes from the perspective of the player, the human emotional part completely takes over.

in particular.

In this pass.

The player takes the role of Jack Cooper.

Just lost BT, reunited with BT, then lost again...

It can be said that the reunion between Cooper and BT was so touching, and how sad it was at the end.

The emotional line extends from the beginning to the end, from the beginning of the level to the end.

In this situation.

How is it possible to look at it rationally...

"Our mission saved Harmony."

"The Resistance calls it their headquarters, and millions more call it home."

"Commander Briggs says I'll be getting a new Titan..."

"I don't know... what it's like to have a new Titan, but... I kind of like the old one."

"Pilot Jack Cooper, end the call."

The end of the game.

Jack Cooper's voice sounded again.

Mou Feng was awakened.

He turned his gaze back to the screen.

When I heard Jack Cooper's slightly hesitant voice at the end.

He took a deep breath, took off his glasses, and wiped his face vigorously.

Hold……

He really wants to play the next level at this moment.

really want.

Even if there is only one pass.

How much he wants to see BT reappear.

Jack Cooper said that line again: "Glad you came back alive, BT."

...

that night.

Because the single-player process of "Titanfall" is not too long.

So most players have cleared the level.

And so many players pass the level.

The impact on the player community... can be imagined.

Players, don't even care about spoilers.

Once you open the forum.

The screen is full of BT...

[BT... Before the Chinese New Year, I played tm games until I cried! I really can't help it! 】

[Textbook-like level design... not only cool, but also the best accompanying NPC so far, but how cool the front is, how touching and sad the back is...

Agreement three, protect the pilot... Finally seeing BT throwing me out, I really couldn't help it. 】

[Before playing, robot wars, have fun. After playing... [Crying] [Crying] [Crying]! 】

[Before playing, everyone thought that the mechas in the game were tools, but everyone said that the mechas in the mecha war were tools! But how can there be such a tool... [crying]]

[BT is obviously just a robot, but it is more touching than any humanoid NPC. It is really worth it to play. In addition, "Trust me"... This sentence is probably the most impressive sentence for me this year. 】

[After clearing the level, I feel indescribable. The game is really good... The charm of the game was undoubtedly revealed at the last moment. The first time I played the game, tears filled my eyes. 】

[What is a game? Linmu Studio really understands it too well... I recommend everyone to try this game, maybe you will have the answer... Really, it's great. 】

[Don't worry about BT, I'm not going anywhere [cry]][cry][cry]]

【Linmu Studio! ! ! Lin Yao! ! ! You give me back BT! ! ! [cry]】

【…】

this day.

Definitely belongs to Titanfall.

Forest studio.

Lin Yao sat in her seat, looked at the posts posted by the players on the forum, smiled slightly, and then stretched vigorously.

"Happy New Year, players."
