Super Game Empire

This is how the famous American game magazine "Game Pass" commented on the "Dakar Rally".

"The PC platform KTT's "Need for Speed ​​1" is undoubtedly the most comprehensive racing game now. The PS platform "Rider Racing" has no competitors on the TV game platform for almost a whole year. Now, Longteng

The "Dakar Rally" stands out. This tough guy has become the third racing game masterpiece, and it is a high-quality work. Its professionalism and authenticity are undoubtedly. We rated it as the Golden Palace level!"

In addition, Jiang Shaoyun took the public relations department to find the official magazine "Rally-world" of the WRC World Automobile Rally Championship, and made a special visit to the Lanqiya team, which won the third place in WRC in 1995. He hopes that professional WRC drivers will personally review and try this

Game.

The top two were not interviewed because the champion was Subaru and the runner-up was Toyota. These two Japanese companies should not have much favorable feelings for Longteng’s games, nor will they cooperate with the game promotion.

This time, the top professional racers tried the game themselves, and they evaluated the Dakar Rally with the eyes of professional outsiders like WRC. As the saying goes, bystanders are clear. The importance of this issue of "Rally-world" interview magazine quickly attracted the world.

Interests of car fans and racing game fans!

...

...

Lancia is a brand of Fiat in Italy. It once won the WRC championship for six consecutive years from 1987 to 1992. At an earlier period, Lancia was also the absolute strongest person in WRC.

James White is the number one star driver of the Lancia team. The model of the vehicle he drove was Delta-Integrale, which looks a bit like Volkswagen's golf. It is parked in the fleet maintenance room in the St. Paul Motor School in a small town in California.

Fortunately, Yang Yun was not here, so he directly transferred to Minnesota in Los Angeles and parted ways with Jiang Shaoyun and others.

If he saw this car, he would definitely scream: "Isn't this a Fukang 988+Alto+Golf combined grocery car!"

Although the shape is indeed a small car, it is not for grocery shopping. The additional rear wing and exaggerated body spraying clearly tell everyone that it is a pure blood rally car!

The energy contained in this small car is extremely terrifying. It has a 16-valve 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, four-wheel drive, 5,500 rpm, and 200 horsepower output per minute. The acceleration from 0-100km can be completed in 5.5 seconds. The maximum speed is 220km.

/ hour, although it is not as good as that kind of supercar, but few cars can resist this performance in WRC rally!

When James looked at Jiang Shaoyun, he proudly introduced: "Have you heard a word? WRC-is-for-boys, GroupB-was-for-men! Lanqia is a monster! The 550-horsepower blue flag

Asia S4 has also participated in GroupB! Even Audi A will lose to us if it accelerates by 1.100 km in 2.7 seconds!"

Jiang Shaoyun did not refute that he did have the capital to be proud. Even if he had not won the WRC championship for several years, GroupB was cancelled, but Lancia is also the team with the most championships in racing history, but it has lost to Japan such as Toyota and Subaru in recent years.

Just a car.

But Rally-world reporter Paris said half-jokingly: "GroupB was cancelled because of S4..."

James was obviously stunned, but he didn't care anymore. That was all eight years ago, and S4 was not his Delta-Integrale. He just boasted about the team's record.

After boasting, James began to prepare to try the game. The magazine editor truthfully recorded every word he said, because his evaluation was very important and no one dared to underestimate it.

After running the game, cheerful African music sounded, mixed with the fascinating engine roar, and it seemed that African lions were chasing antelope flocks. At the same time, there was a sense of various racing cars following the gravel track next to it.

A large number of participating vehicles were swiping quickly across the screen, and finally the words LongGame and "Dakar Rally 1" appeared in the middle of the screen, and James noticed that there were four game options.

Jiang Shaoyun introduced: "The first is the plot mode, where the player plays a professional racer and is preparing to participate in the 1996 Dakar Rally. He wants to complete all pre-race preparations, from modifying vehicles, attracting sponsorships, and looking for a vehicle leader.

Recruiting logistics personnel and so on, and finally completing the competition with difficulty is a complete process.”

This is the most common mode, and it starts here to feel the charm of the Dakar Rally.

"The second item is the classic track challenge mode. Players can choose any segmentation race to complete the racing race. They can choose 10 different vehicles of different brands, participate in different tracks, and compete with different competitors. This

There is a multiplayer battle mode in the options, and you can fight online."

This is also a common way to play racing games. You are unlimitedly familiar with the track, drive different vehicles, feel different speeds and vehicle data, and then race with your friends to see who runs faster and who plays better

.

"The third item is the vehicle honor room and modification center, where you can view all your achievements, such as winning the championship in a certain segment, or maintaining the speed above 150km/h for 10 minutes, etc., and

You can share your game experience with players around the world.”

When introducing this, James became interested: "How to share it with players around the world? Can I make my face appear here?"

Jiang Shaoyun smiled and said, "Of course not. This requires connecting to the Internet, otherwise the information cannot be shared, and the game's functions are not that powerful yet. We have provided this function now, but the conditions for sharing are not mature.

So even if you are connected to the Internet, you can only see the score rankings and your own rankings!”

This mechanism requires access to the Longteng database and then display it with a special external program to see simple basic information such as the appearance of other people's vehicles, spray patterns, highest records, etc.

The last option is of course the comprehensive functions such as game design group, music setting, button setting, help system, and exit. After listening to the introduction, James chose the plot mode.

Long Teng's usual characteristics are CG animations. The protagonist is a blonde and blue-eyed European boy who can name it himself, and default to Sabin. This is also to commemorate the founder of the rally, Zeli Sabin, which was also obtained from the organizing committee.

Authorization.

The Dakar Rally is different from WRC. The former is that any vehicle can participate, it is also amateur, and assembled vehicles. WRC requires that it is a mass-produced car from each car manufacturer.

So in the game, James saw that Sabin was still worried about the funds and wanted to lobby multiple other companies for sponsorship. After receiving the sponsorship fee, he would have to modify the vehicle after participating in the competition, and couldn't help laughing.

"Oh poor kid! Jiang, the back cover of this game box is Chinese team. I know the level of China's automobile industry. Is it difficult for your drivers to recruit sponsorship? Isn't it the whole process after running?"

Jiang Shaoyun laughed: "James, Paris, you may not know much about China's current situation, because CBS and ABC TV's reports on China are not comprehensive. China does have a domestic team participating in the competition this time, and the sponsor is us.

Longteng Company and the logistics support fleet were also formed by us at our own expense, and we finally won 72 people. We ran the whole process and didn’t fall behind!”

James couldn't help but turn around and said in surprise: "The level of Chinese domestic cars is so high? Oh, sorry, although 72 is nothing, what I know is that in the Dakar Rally, many Japanese or Americans participated in the competition.

Even the vehicles cannot run the full range, and there are quite a few people who withdraw from the race. Being able to persist in running the full range is a very good result!”

Jiang Shaoyun proudly said: "Although Chinese cars started late and had low technology, this is our first attempt to challenge the Dakar Rally, and we will participate every year from now on! To be honest, all the live data of this game are

It was recorded, filmed and collected by our Great Wall Longteng fleet!”

GreatWall, Long, these two words were recorded in the interview book. The reporter Paris was slightly moved. If the Chinese automobile industry could develop as rapidly as the game industry, it would be a super huge automobile consumer market. Their magazine

The society will face huge opportunities.

James no longer cares about the automobile industry on the other side of the earth. He wants to try out what the game is charming in professional modifications and how to exchange limited funds for the best modifications.

He chose the Pajero of Mitsubishi Motorsports, and used a soft keyboard to enter the name of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.

Jiang Shaoyun asked curiously: "Why don't you choose Lanqia's team logo spray painting?"

James replied: "The Dakar Rally is not Lancia's strength. Do you have this model prepared?"

Jiang Shaoyun smiled awkwardly and said, "No... we are loyal to the actual schedule, but Mitsubishi team is so strong, James, are you a little like this..."

James laughed: "I'll try the feel first! Then give me your Great Wall Motors, and I'll train it!"

That's what I'm waiting for!

Jiang Shaoyun was so happy. The private goods in this game are Great Wall Motors. Among the ten racing cars, 3 Japanese cars, 2 American cars, and 4 European cars. Yang Yun was determined to stuff Great Wall Motors in, which surprised everyone.

, It also caused a round of controversy among the R&D department!

Mitsubishi Pajero's evaluation is 95 points, Citroen ZX scores 94 points, Peugeot 206 scores 92 points, BMW, Nissan, Toyota, GM and other vehicles are 90 to 80 points in turn, and Great Wall Pickup, with a comprehensive strength evaluation of 60 points, this kind of

The huge gap makes the game development department nicknamed Hell Mode.

So James will play Great Wall Motor in Hell mode later, which makes everyone look forward to it!
