At the door, Old P wanted to open the door and leave, but the system prompted, "To ensure your gaming experience, a match of PlayerUnknown's Battleground will start at 10: 15 sharp. All players, please be prepared and enter at the same time."
Obviously, opening the door meant entering the matching queue, but since the game was still in its testing phase, he still had to wait for the match to start.
Old P walked around the ruins twice, picked up the AKM on the weapon rack, and checked the magazine. It was full.
He walked a little further, then fired a few shots at the wall of the ruins to familiarize himself with the feel.
The AKM was an improved version of the AK-47, and it was a common weapon in various shooting games. As a hardcore FPS gamer, Old PK had also specifically trained in the AK series of guns.
According to the instructions in the operation manual, Old P familiarized himself with the various character movements and the AKM's trajectory.
The character's movements were varied, including waist shots, iron sights, sideways movements, finding cover, blind shots, rolls, pouncing, and so on. Moreover, the recoil generated by crouching, standing, and shooting was different.
"Hmm … it seems like the trajectory is more realistic. Is it because of the physics engine?"
While shooting, Old P could feel the vibration of the gun coming from his shoulder. It was not a monotonous feeling, but a perfect match with the vibration of the gun in the game.
At the same time, the gun vibration in his field of vision and the trajectory of the bullet on the wall were more realistic, almost similar to the real gun shooting seen in many foreign videos.
The body template of the player's character was obviously made according to the standard of an ordinary soldier. His roll was very fast, and his shooting accuracy was also relatively high. Especially the iron sights when he was lying down, he could almost hit wherever he was pointing.
Of course, this was also because Old P was a veteran FPS gamer. If he was a newbie, he would still need to practice to achieve this state.
Other than that, there were some things related to the system settings that players could customize according to their personal preferences.
However, the VR gaming pod was different from a PC, and there were not many settings that could be adjusted. Old P glanced at it and found no major problems.
He wanted to look at the operation manual again, but at that moment, the system's voice came.
"PlayerUnknown's Battleground trial battle is about to begin. Please be prepared, you will enter the battlefield in 30 seconds …"
Since it was about to begin, Old P stopped wandering around and waited quietly.
After 30 seconds, the screen in front of Old P turned black, and he arrived at another scene.
It was a large square with a wide view. The stone floor was overgrown with weeds. In the distance, there were containers, caves, and all kinds of buildings.
It could be seen that this was a miniature island, similarly an abandoned place. The trees were luxuriant and weeds were overgrown, indicating that this place had been deserted for a very long time.
There was a large group of players in front of him. Most of them were wearing white singlets and jeans, which seemed to be the default attire. There were also people wearing other clothes, such as suits, shorts, windbreakers, and so on. They should be the special clothes that were opened from the initial supply box.
There were men and women of all shapes and sizes. They were scattered all over the square, looking around curiously.
"Eh, has the game started? Where's the parachute jump? "
"Where is this?"
"Hmm? This island is so small. Are we going to fight here? I don't think I've lost any HP at all. "
"There seems to be a gun here!"
This was the famous spawn area. The reason why it was called the spawn area was because it was especially revealing …
Old P noticed that there were different voice modes in the game. You could turn on the public voice so that all players within a certain range could hear what you were saying, or you could turn on the party voice so that only the players in the party could hear you.
The players in front of him were all running and jumping around, familiarizing themselves with the controls of the game. There were even some who were happily punching other players, watching them being beaten up like sandbags.
The craziest thing was that there were even some who pervertedly ran up to a female character and squatted down, trying their best to peek under their skirts …
Old P realized that he had the manual with him at all times, and could read it at any time. There was also a map in the manual, which was the entrance to the map in the game, which could be looked at at any time.
According to the manual, this was the preparation area for the start of the game. Players wouldn't get hurt, and guns couldn't be brought out.
A countdown timer appeared on the top right corner of the screen, one minute. In addition, the number of players in the game had reached 79.
Obviously, all the players in the VR gaming experience area had joined the battle.
However, it was also because they were in the preparation phase that many players were starting to cause trouble. There were all sorts of guns in the game on the table next to him. Some of the quick-witted players had already run over and started firing at the crowd.
"How boring," Old P was speechless as he was being chased by an idiot with a gun. It wasn't that he was afraid of getting hit, he just wanted to take a look at his surroundings. However, the idiot behind him thought that he was afraid, and started chasing him even harder.
Old P took a quick look at his surroundings.
This small island was on the top right corner of the map, and was probably only used for beginners. After comparing the area on the map, Old P exclaimed, "The map is huge!"
It was no wonder that they had to use all sorts of vehicles. Running from one end of the island to the other would probably break one's legs.
At this time, the countdown timer on the top right corner had ended, and the number of players was still at 79. He didn't know why that guy didn't come in, or if he was playing another VR game.
The screen changed, and Old P entered the view of the plane.
Everyone was in the cabin by default, sitting neatly in two rows. They could flip through the manual in their hands or look at the map.
Old P saw on the map that the plane was flying from south to north, but the exact flight path wasn't marked, so the players had to judge for themselves.
He could switch to third-person mode, and the view would shift to the top of the plane, allowing him to observe every corner of the island from a bird's eye view.
Just like the map, the island was huge, and it was rich in elements. There was an airport, a sawmill, a prison, a farm, a school, a hospital, a town, a shooting range, a port, and many other locations.
According to the manual, different locations had different levels of resources. Obviously, the more resources there were, the more intense the battles would be.
However, the manual didn't mention which places had more resources, and which places had less.
"Hmm … which means that there won't be any guns in the wilderness. That means I have to go to a town, but I can't choose a town with too many people, or else there'll be more battles in the early stages. "
Old P was considering. Although he was confident in his shooting skills, it was still the first round of the game, so it was better to play it safe. If someone else picked up his gun first, it wouldn't matter how good his shooting skills were.
