Chapter 17: I’m Top-tier At Shooters!
【Streamer, Streamer, do you know about an FPS multiplayer tactical competitive game? It will launch on the 23rd of this month.】
Seeing this bullet comment, Li Fan’s eyes immediately narrowed.
A FPS multiplayer tactical competitive game will launch on the 23rd.
In his impression of 2017, the only truly big hit was actually PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.
Even League of Legends was no match for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, let alone other Overwatch and CSGO.
Even Wei Shen directly switched to PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds after the Spring Split ended, becoming a Professional PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds Player.
And retired League Professional Players like PDD would start PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds right after finishing their League of Legends live stream every day.
And… both of them were questioned for cheating because they were exceptionally good at gunfights, getting 20-something kills or 30 kills every game.
In this situation, they were questioned by everyone for cheating.
Although you are a Professional Player, you are a League Professional Player; there’s no reason you would be this good at gunfight games.
So some people carrying seeds of doubt were really looking with a magnifying glass.
Then all sorts of analyses…
And releasing clips they thought were ironclad proof.
PDD was quite smart about this matter.
If he’s cheating, so be it; you say what you want, I don’t need to come out.
As long as he doesn’t come out and admit it, it can’t be proven.
But xxx stood up and even wanted to hold a fan meetup to prove himself.
But he forgot the most important thing.
Inciting fans to curse people… the impact was really too great, laying the foreshadowing for his later ban.
PDD directly became the biggest beneficiary of this incident.
Originally, the two were fighting over who was the Number One Streamer in Douyu’s section; they could really be said to be fighting fiercely with thick gunpowder flavor, but now there’s no need to fight.
PDD directly became the Number One Streamer in Douyu’s League of Legends Section.
Because no one else even has the qualifications.
Here, PDD really has to be mentioned again.
No matter what it is, it seems like he’s involved, and yet also not.
First is YM passing through LPL seven times without entering.
Many people thought there was suspicion of match-fixing, eating their fill.
After all, all seven games went to the full duration…
But on the other hand, the opponents they faced were all relegation emperors.
Sima Laozei, Wei Shen, Doinb.
From this, it seems like there’s no problem.
But rumors of him organizing match-fixing have always existed, and secondary leagues are absolutely a major disaster area.
The official even issued five or six Weibo posts about rectifications in just a few short years.
And every time such voices arose, PDD would avoid the limelight and stop streaming for a long time.
Because match-fixing was really too rampant, even top leagues had quite a few outbreaks, with all sorts of exposés that the official couldn’t stand anymore, so they started sweeping reforms with a broadsword.
Later, they directly changed the secondary league to LDL.
Divided into various regions, with only four teams per region, making it much easier to manage.
In this situation, news of match-fixing gradually disappeared.
What made PDD completely vanish was the Douyu massive gambling incident.
This guy got the news in advance again, ran to Japan, paid the fine, and wasn’t caught afterward…
But he was streaming on Huya Live, so he had nothing to do with that Douyu group.
He had been wondering before when PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds would launch; since it’s launching on the 23rd, he had to seize this wave of popularity to earn more learning points and freedom points.
Although it was only popular for two and a half years, those two and a half years were really extremely exaggerated.
Steam data that hasn’t been surpassed to this day: 3.23 million simultaneous online players.
Miss signed a contract with Huya as a PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds Streamer because of its popularity.
Then… during the live stream, she directly abandoned League of Legends; from this angle, it’s indeed no problem, but you can’t say it like that.
After all, her core audience is League of Legends.
Being able to sign a three-year contract with Huya for 30 million was also because she was a League of Legends Streamer.
So her later decline was also self-inflicted.
But she’s a rich woman, so she probably doesn’t care about this pittance.
So whether students or office workers, their discussions in free time were all about PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.
Especially that phrase, “Big luck, good fortune, chicken dinner tonight.”
To the point that when meeting and greeting back then, the first thing was “Did you win the game last night?”
Li Fan once in a four-player matchmaking, a girl was told by a male teammate that she played poorly, and they definitely wouldn’t win the game today.
The girl probably got angry at his words and directly said, “I can win the game.”
At that time, Li Fan was truly shocked.
No matter the reply, he had thought of it…
Possibly leading to a big fight, cursing from start to finish.
But because of this sentence, the team voice chat directly went silent.
The guy who called the girl bad… didn’t say another word afterward.
Even when knocked down, he didn’t wait for teammates to rescue and directly quit the game.
Indeed… no matter who it is in this situation, it seems hard to find a retort, unless you’re a Chengdu good man.
Thinking of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, Li Fan felt his hands itching a bit.
He couldn’t wait to play a match right away.
“PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, right? I’ve always been paying attention to this game.”
While saying that, he opened Steam.
Then very skillfully entered PLAY… followed by a bunch of English for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.
This is the game’s trailer interface.
“Let me tell you, the Streamer is very strong at this game; gunfight games are my specialty.”
This is a lie… Li Fan does play Crossfire and CSGO, but he’s just decent, not a master.
But crossing to a parallel world, his reaction speed is countless times faster than his previous life.
Plus the system point additions…
His current attributes might not count for much among Professional Players, but sooner or later he will become the top existence.
So in this state, playing FPS gunfight games like this shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
After all, this game relies most on reaction and hand speed; truly indispensable.
Even if not good at first, practicing a bit will definitely be fine.
【Blowing hot air again? Unreal just loves to brag, everything else is good.】
【Aren’t we here just because he brags all day? We all want to see him get slapped in the face.】
【But speaking of which, up to now, we haven’t seen Unreal get slapped in the face; he even slaughters Zitai in League of Legends.】
【Indeed, up to now it feels like he knows all games, even QQ Speed… I think Crossfire should be good too.】
【Said like that, he might really be pretty good at FPS games.】
After all, back then, Crossfire dominated half the market; no reason to play QQ Speed and not Crossfire.
“Then let’s do it; since everyone doesn’t believe it, let’s have a fun game of Crossfire.”
While saying that, he opened TGP, directly searched for Crossfire, and clicked download.
At that moment, it popped up that C drive space was insufficient.
“Hm?”
Mainly because the computer had four League of Legends versions.
NA Server, Korean Server, National Server, and Match Server.
Plus the previously downloaded QQ Speed and various other games, 256G was indeed a bit insufficient.
“This computer still needs an upgrade, but before that… I still need to clear some hard drive space.”
While saying that, he directly uninstalled the National Server version.
