A good racing game has turned into a suffering game.
Zhang Yan was not willing to give up. She did not believe in evil and tried other methods.
I tried it with the keyboard and controller, but finally returned to the steering wheel.
Because it’s harder to use a keyboard and a controller!
Of course, as a qualified racing game, "Safe and Civilized Driving" also adjusts the keyboard and handle controls to enable players to better control the vehicle.
This is a basic optimization that must be done in all racing games, because the keyboard and handle lack the precision of the steering wheel. For example, the keyboard can only hit the left and right, press the accelerator to the bottom, and press the brake to the bottom.
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 it easier to press the buttons to achieve the player's real purpose.
But even so, it’s still difficult!
Because this is the second subject of the test, not driving on the road.
The road is very wide, so as long as you obey the traffic rules and follow the markings, there will be no problem, but subject two requires high-precision control of the vehicle.
Not to mention novices, many experienced drivers who have been driving for many years suddenly have to go back and take the second subject, and it is difficult to adapt at once. At most, they will become familiar with it much faster than novices, but this familiarization process cannot be omitted.
Can I pass subject two in "Safe and Civilized Driving" using a keyboard and controller?
It can be passed, but it requires very good driving skills.
Taking reversing into the garage as an example, you need to carefully observe the rearview mirror, guess the trajectory of the wheel movement, and make fine adjustments to this trajectory.
The "fine-tuning" alone can dissuade many impatient players.
Because fine-tuning using the keyboard and handle is much more difficult than using a steering wheel.
The method taught in the driving school is actually a test-taking method. Most students have not really mastered the distance of reversing into the parking lot. They just rely on rote memorization to memorize the markings. In reality, many people still have to rely on the reversing method in the car.
image.
In the game, there are no marking lines for reversing into the warehouse, so it all depends on the player's hard power.
Of course, it may be that the game makers have considered that this operation is really difficult, so they have a certain degree of mercy for the players: players can choose to use other perspectives to pass the driver's license test, such as the rear view 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 perspective of the car to complete the exam!
After all, in reality, there is no such thing as the rear view of a car.
Moreover, some people on the Internet have already passed the driver's license test and shared it. According to them, if you pass the driver's license test with different equipment and viewing angles, the system will record it. The inside perspective and the rear perspective are two different things.
Record.
Obviously, the value of passing the driving license test from the in-car perspective will be higher.
Zhang Yan kept trying unyieldingly.
Fortunately, this is a game, not reality. You don’t need to take the test repeatedly. If you can’t pass subject two, you can keep taking the test until you pass.
As the voice of "failed the test, please keep trying" kept ringing, Zhang Yan felt that her driving skills were improving little by little. She also recalled a lot of knowledge from the previous driver's license test, and a lot of muscle memory.
was inspired.
Finally, after trying six or seven times, she finally succeeded in passing subject two!
What surprised her was that the seemingly free items in the previous driver's license test actually caused her trouble, such as right-angle turns and S-turns. When taking the driver's license test, she was asked to memorize them directly, but now she does not need to test them.
The position can be referenced, but it cannot be used. If you are not careful, you will press the line.
After taking the test of subject two, there are still subjects three and four.
Subject three is much simpler. It means driving normally on the road. Follow the instructions on the screen to perform left and right turns, overtaking and other corresponding operations. Not to mention using the steering wheel, it should not be difficult to use the keyboard and controller. It is much less difficult than subject two.
.
After subject three, there is subject four, which is about issues 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, with only 50 questions.
This should be to streamline the game process, otherwise the player will pass subject one as soon as they start, and the game experience will be too bad.
After all, many players have not memorized Subject 1 at all, and have to brush up the questions or ask Qiandu first, and the gaming experience is too bad; and even if many experienced players can easily pass Subject 1, they still cannot answer so many questions.
Seriously affects the gaming experience.
After all, there are still 50 questions after the reduction!
Come up and take subjects two and three first. At least the player is driving.
But Zhang Yan seriously doubts whether this is useful or will have the opposite effect. Because it is much more difficult to pass the test in Subject 2 than memorizing the questions in Subject 1 and Subject 4!
Isn’t putting subject 2 at the top really just to discourage players?
But no matter what, I finally passed the driving license test!
Zhang Yan let out a sigh of relief and felt a sense of accomplishment.
Of course, this sense of accomplishment is not as good as the sense of accomplishment in reality when you pass Subject 4 and get the driving textbook. After all, this is a game, but it has a very special feeling.
Her self-confidence has skyrocketed!
Because there is a certain degree of "examination-oriented education" in the real driving license test, many subjects are passed by rote memorization, while the test in "Safe and Civilized Driving" is passed by hard skills.
Therefore, in reality, after passing the driving test, it may still be a bit empty if you really want to hit the road. Some people may still need the company of an experienced driver.
But in the game, Zhang Yan felt that she was completely fine and could definitely go on the road safely!
After getting her driver's license, Zhang Yan received a start-up capital of 240,000 yuan in the game and was free to buy a family car.
Zhang Yan took a look and found that the available models were not as rich as in reality. About 70% of them were fictitious brands, but their real prototypes could be vaguely recognized; while the remaining 30% were existing brands.
Obviously they are authorized, but most of them are domestic car manufacturers, and there are only a few foreign manufacturers, and none of them are famous brands.
When purchasing a vehicle, there is no histogram of parameters like in other games, which clearly displays controllability, acceleration and other contents in intuitive charts. Instead, the parameter data used when purchasing a car in reality is used.
Of course, due to price constraints, these models are basically all family sedans and SUVs. There are no sports cars, and their appearance is similar.
With a budget of 240,000, the available models are either too many or too few.
And it is best not to spend all the 240,000. The official reminder says that the money can be earned again in the future, but some money must be left in the account for emergencies, for violation fines, accident compensation, etc. There can be a certain amount
The credit limit and the time in arrears, but you still have to pay it back in the end.
Zhang Yan feels that she has a bit of a problem with choosing.
When the budget is sufficient, there is no need to choose so much. Anyway, just buy the classic models of those famous brand cars. No matter how bad they are in all aspects, they will not be much different; but when the budget is shorter, it will be very embarrassing.
, because when you pick and choose these models, there will always be small flaws of one kind or another.
Either the power is insufficient, the safety is poor, or the appearance is not good-looking... In short, the budget is not enough, and these are definitely not comprehensive, which in turn further arouses Zhang Yan's difficulty in choosing.
"Are you a car fan? Wow, I really want to buy this one. It's so small and easy to park, and the top version only costs 40,000 yuan!"
"Hey, but will buying this car affect the subsequent game process? It's cheap, but the performance is a bit too weak."
"Forget it, let's consider a safer option."
"Huh? Isn't this the Passat from Dazhong? The price is quite suitable. The new business version starts from 190,000. With car insurance and miscellaneous expenses, it is just within the budget, and there is still a little money left for urgent needs.
"
"That's it!"
Zhang Yan looked at several models and some new energy vehicles, and finally chose the Passat, which currently has a good reputation, as her first car.
Of course, it's not called this name in the game, and the car logo has been slightly changed, but you can probably tell its prototype.
Although this car seems not suitable for girls to drive, it is said that in this game, you can make money by driving online ride-hailing services, so this car is very suitable.
If you really buy a car and are a fan of NI, you will have a lot of fun driving it yourself, but will the charges for online car-hailing be very low?
At that time, the same mileage will make little money, which will be embarrassing.
Moreover, NI, a car-loving car enthusiast, is too cheap after all, and its safety is not very good. If you want to run long distances in the future, you will not dare to take the expressway.
After all, in this game, driving is both work and entertainment. As for the first car, it should first meet the needs of work, ensure a certain degree of business and safety, and then save a little money before pursuing higher pursuits.
After selecting various options and coatings 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 any province, letters, and numbers.
I have to say that, after all, it is a game, so this aspect is quite easy, and it even gave Zhang Yan the illusion that "it went so smoothly."
Then I thought about it, isn’t this what it should be? This is just a game!
Maybe it was because the driving test was so torturous at the beginning, so Zhang Yan was grateful that it was a little more convenient later.
After driving on the road, Zhang Yan's first feeling was that it felt great!
This feeling is very different from other racing games.
Other racing games start with just racing on the road, which is really fun, but the subsequent experience does not actually improve much. It is nothing more than a more complex track and faster enemies.
But "Safe and Civilized Driving" is different. When I hit the road for the first time after getting my driver's license, I felt an inexplicable sense of nervousness and anxiety, and after running for a while, I didn't even touch it!
You know, Zhang Yan drives in other games, and such small bumps and bruises are inevitable.
