Chapter 326: Subversive Showdown
Chapter 326: Subversive Showdown
As early as six days ago, the online preliminary round of “Battle in the Clouds” had already started in full swing.
The competition adopts a three-round points system, one round a week, one round of 20 games, the first two rounds are to eliminate 50% of the teams, and the last round, according to the team’s total points ranking, the top 100 will be selected to enter the offline competition.
For all online competitions, the system will automatically match different teams, and each team can flexibly choose the time and match opponents for the competition.
With the start of the online competition, the popularity of “Battle in the Clouds” suddenly began to rise rapidly.
In the first few days of the competition, the number of online users surpassed that before the game update, and after 5 days of competition, it soared to 100,000.
For a hardcore and unpopular game, 100,000 simultaneous online users are definitely a hit.
The surge in the number of players also made the competition more intense.
Even Cui Zhifeng began to feel the pressure.
At first, he thought that with his experience in flying airplanes in real life and playing “DCS World” for many years, playing “Decisive Battle in the Clouds” was a complete waste of time. In addition, the four players he recruited were also hardcore players of “DCS World”. Although their theoretical and operational levels were not as high as his, they basically did not drag their feet.
So there would be no problem in entering the offline competition.
But unexpectedly, with the surge in the number of players and the official introduction of introductory video tutorials, which were gradually integrated into the game’s novice tutorials, the overall level of players suddenly began to rise rapidly.
Although they have not lost so far, the pressure has begun to increase.
In the first game, they could still beat their opponents 0:5 with zero losses, but after the twelfth game, they could only play 5:1 or even 5:2 with losses.
You know, this is just the first round!
What the hell are these new players? ! ”This damn official must have deliberately matched us with a winning streak!”
”Isn’t that nonsense? If I were the game official, I would definitely not let anyone bully the weak all the time.”
”…”
Because of the matching mechanism, the waiting time for each official game is usually 10-60 minutes.
However, fortunately, during the matching process, players do not have to wait and can play games and practice normally.
So during this process, teammates chatted relatively relaxedly.
As before, Cui Zhifeng still broadcast the game live.
Anyway, if he doesn’t broadcast live, the official will also have game replays, so there is no need to worry about leaking tactics. It is better to increase the popularity of the live broadcast room through live broadcast.
And to be honest, this game has not much tactics so far.
After all, everyone is not very skilled in flying a plane. They can’t execute the tactics even if you tell them.
So the current way of playing the game is that everyone can see each other from the radar from a distance, and then start to compete with each other in operation and team tacit understanding, even if the opponent eavesdrops on their conversation throughout the whole process, they can’t beat them.
On the contrary, by switching to “Battle in the Clouds”, Cui Zhifeng’s number of fans has increased at a speed that even he himself feels a little dumbfounded.
With more than 500,000 fans and more than 50,000 real viewers in the live broadcast room, he seems to be the top live broadcaster of “Battle in the Clouds”.
”Why is “Battle in the Clouds” so popular all of a sudden?” Cui Zhifeng suddenly talked about this topic with the fans in the live broadcast room.
[The prize money is high, and they are all attracted by the prize money. ]
[Agree +1, anyway, I just come here to try my luck. ]
[This kind of popularity will definitely not last long. After the game, the number of players will definitely drop sharply. 】
【It’s normal, but as long as some people can stay, this wave of marketing is actually successful. Isn’t the next door “Ace Flying” also learning from “Decisive Clouds” and organizing a wave of competitions to attract attention? It’s just that the prize money is much less than that of “Decisive Clouds”. 】
【I came from “Ace Flying”. I don’t know if you have noticed that when I first came to “Decisive Clouds”, I felt that it was impossible to adapt to this hardcore gameplay, but when you really study hard and successfully fly the plane, it’s so cool. This feeling is not what you get from playing “Ace Flying”. 】
【+1, I feel the same way! When I got my first blood yesterday, I jumped up excitedly.]
[Actually, even if there is no competition, I think “Battle in the Clouds” is much more fun than brainless games like “Ace Flight”. Anyway, I plan to keep playing.]
[……]
While playing the game, Cui Zhifeng looked at the barrage.
He has turned off the barrage broadcast. There is no other way. With more viewers, there will naturally be more barrages, and voice cannot report at all.
After seeing everyone’s comments, Cui Zhifeng suddenly felt that “Battle in the Clouds” really had a powerful combination this time.
First attract people through bonuses, so that players can experience the sense of accomplishment and superiority of hardcore games after trying the game, thereby retaining users.
Although there are not many players who like to play hardcore games in this era of fast food culture, it does not mean that this group has completely disappeared. It’s just that the number is small, and after being divided by major games, it seems particularly niche.
Now, attracted by the millions of prizes, they suddenly gathered in “Battle of the Clouds”.
”Brother Feng, I’ve found a match!”
Just when Cui Zhifeng was chatting with fans, his teammates suddenly reminded him, and Cui Zhifeng hurriedly looked at the matching results.
GIF team?
After seeing this name, Cui Zhifeng immediately cheered up.
He had seen this team on the scoreboard!
Like his own LDW team, they have 19 wins and 0 losses so far. As long as they win one more game, they can 100% enter the second round.
It’s a strong opponent!
On the other side, Huang Yu, the captain of the Chuncheng GIF team, was immediately under pressure after seeing LDW.
Although the official also launched a tutorial for beginners later, Feng Ge’s live broadcast replay video at the beginning bought them at least three days of precious time, and he can be regarded as their ‘enlightenment teacher’.
“Come on, everyone, it’s the last round of the first round.”
“I didn’t expect to meet Feng Ge so soon.”
“I feel that this round is a bit suspenseful…”
“It’s okay, keep a good attitude, even if we lose this round, we will most likely enter the second round.”
“Alas, I thought the competition was not fierce, but I didn’t expect it to be so difficult.”
Since the start of the game, Huang Yu and his team have only played two official games a day, and the rest of the time is used for review and practice, trying to extend the game time as much as possible to give themselves time to evolve.
But after all, they have just started this kind of game, and facing Feng Ge, a big guy who switched from “DCS World”, the pressure is still very high.
As the reading bar ends, the game officially begins.
Teammates from both sides immediately began to line up on the runway to take off. Because they felt that their proficiency in air combat was worse than LDW, they were worried about being defeated one by one. Therefore, Huang Yu chose the tactic of grouping up in this round.
Just want to fight head-on, compare operation and cooperation.
The players who took off first chose to circle around the field, and after their teammates took off, they reorganized the team and directly formed a long snake formation to kill LDW.
When LDW’s captain Cui Zhifeng saw their formation on the radar, he immediately ordered to divide the team members into two groups and adopt a two-plane pincer tactical attack plan.
This is a very efficient and dangerous BVR air combat tactic in modern air combat, which is often used for encirclement and suppression of ground-based formations.
Its specific plan is that when the two-plane formation enters the Crank pre-defense line, the leader and wingman immediately separate to the left and right and spread into a wall horizontal formation. After the lead and wingman have opened up a gap of 5-10 nautical miles, they immediately begin to close the distance again, and simultaneously launch medium-range active missiles to carry out cross-fire suppression.
At this time, the enemy will definitely launch missiles at them.
But they can perform Notch-down high side defense (leader and wingman double-plane collision) after entering the DR decision line, using the Doppler radar principle and ground clutter interference, while releasing chaff interference or air-launched decoy assistance, to softly evade local missiles.
Under normal circumstances, this tactic can be detached with the help of complex interference factors.
If the enemy’s missile is still tracking stably, the aircraft will immediately turn around and reorganize the formation to escape.
On the contrary, continue to take advantage of the opportunity when the enemy is still avoiding high-throw active missiles to carry out a second suppressive attack, forcing the opponent to lose more escape energy.
It is equivalent to repeating cross-fire suppression and colliding with the lead and wingman double-plane on the DR decision line.
”Fuck, what is this operation?!”
GIF team, which had just mastered the control of the aircraft, had never seen such air combat tactics.
When they saw the two formations of LDW team launching a pincer attack from two angles, they were a little confused.
In addition to firing crazily, they could not think of any countermeasures for a while.
Bang——
Don’t even mention the second suppression attack, two GIF teammates were directly bombed.
The remaining three immediately lost their composure and scattered.
But fortunately, L A formation of DW was at the DR decision line, performing a two-plane hedging maneuver with the lead wingman. Due to poor distance control, the tails of the two aircraft collided and the upper one exploded.
Although the other aircraft did not explode, its maneuverability was greatly reduced after the tail was damaged.
Huang Yu immediately seized the opportunity to catch up with him, wanting to kill him while he was sick.
LDW captain Cui Zhifeng, as a backup and commander, immediately rescued the team member, but unfortunately he did not catch up in the end. After being bitten by Huang Yu, the team member was taken away directly. Go.
But this player gained a favorable position for Cui Zhifeng. After more than three minutes of struggle, Huang Yu still couldn’t get rid of Cui Zhifeng’s pursuit, and was finally shot down by him with a machine gun.
The battle situation suddenly became 3 vs. 2.
After a difficult siege for ten minutes, LDW finally defeated GIF with a score of 5:3 and became the first team to enter the second round with a perfect record.
The intensity of this game completely crushed all previous games.
Everyone suddenly discovered that “The Final Battle” Yunxiao also has tactics! And judging from the process of this game, tactics may be more important than operation! If it weren’t for the collision of the two LDW players due to operational errors, they could have completely wiped out GIF with zero losses by relying on the double-machine clamp tactics that suddenly appeared.
And the operation of this thing can be improved through continuous training. Judging from LDW’s performance today, if they are given some more time, they will definitely be able to execute this double-machine clamp tactics more perfectly.
”I didn’t expect to be forced out of tactics in the first round.” Cui Zhifeng said to his audience immediately after the game, “After this game has added tactical confrontation, I guess I won’t be able to broadcast the next game live. ”
[I understand. It’s the same when watching the replay.]
[Brother Feng is awesome! LDW is awesome!]
[Today seems to have a subversive feeling. I didn’t expect that the first round would be so intense and exciting.]
[After all, they are both teams with 19 consecutive wins.]
[Brother Feng 666!!]
[……]
Seeing LDW win again, Cui Zhifeng’s fans naturally supported him with all their strength, and all kinds of 666 were crazy on the screen.
Thinking that the next game could not be broadcast live, Cui Zhifeng I still feel reluctant to let go…
Unlike the lively live broadcast room, at Huang Yu’s home in Chuncheng, the five members of the GIF team were still a little confused.
After a while, Huang Yu opened the webpage and searched the Internet to find the tactics that LDW had just used.
It turns out that this tactic is called the double-plane pincer tactic. It not only exists in reality, but is also a must-learn tactic for fighter pilots! ”It feels like the difficulty of this game has been upgraded again…”
”It’s okay. With 19 wins, there should still be a great chance to enter the second round.” Huang Yu immediately comforted the team members, “I feel that as long as we don’t encounter this LDW, it will be easy to deal with others.”
”And don’t forget our slogan of ‘fighting more and more bravely, and constantly evolving’.”
”Through today’s game, everyone should have discovered that their LDW’s operation is actually not very good, otherwise there would not be the mistake of crashing into the plane. As long as we make up for the tactics, there will be a great chance to defeat them in the future. ”
Huang Yu’s words immediately made the team members regain their confidence.
”Well, we will never give up until the last moment!”
”Think about the 3 million grand prize… Then we will each get 600,000, which is enough for the down payment of the house!”
”I won’t buy a house. I will lose a lot of money. I want to buy a car!”
”Haha, buying a car is even more of a loss.”
”I will buy Master Kong’s Guizhen. How much can I lose with tens of thousands of dollars?”
”…”
After teasing each other for a while, they quickly adjusted their mentality and began to learn the double-machine clamp tactics used by LDW today.
Not only this tactic should be learned, but also as long as it can be used on the networkThey are ready to learn the real air combat tactics found on the Internet.
Even if they can’t learn all of them for the time being due to time constraints, they should at least understand them when they can be executed in the game.
Otherwise, if they encounter it in the future, they will definitely be confused like today…
…
Three hours after the end of the game between LDW and GIF, the official also immediately released the replay video. Not only did they release the replay video, they also re-interpreted and edited the entire battle through the official third-person perspective.
Even re-rendering was performed, which greatly improved the accuracy of the picture quality, so that the entire short film looks like a trailer for an air combat movie.
After this video was posted online, Fenghuo Network directly spent one million to start the topic, so the popularity of the video quickly began to soar and began to break the circle.
[Fuck, this shot is too explosive]
[Burning! ]
[Is this a real game recording? What kind of domestic game is so awesome? 】
[Battle of the Clouds, it seems to be quite popular recently. They held a competition, and many professional gamers have recently gone there to compete for the 10 million grand prize. 】
[Fuck, 10 million grand prize? Is it too late to play now? 】
[It’s too late, the second round of the competition will start tomorrow, and this game is very hardcore, it’s too late for you to play now. 】
