My WOW gameplay

ZZPosted by Paul on Tuesday, May 11, 2010 , under | comments (0)



start up



revive



wearing vest



collecting



level 5















according to level up the character, i have tried several ways that can whether to raise my experience points or to discover this game which are collecting item in order to learn more skill also try to defeat many higher level enemies, therefore, even thogh i have been revived many time, but i still found it very interesting, because many players around me are also try to help me up while i almost got defeated by other monsters, and that makes me feel gradeful.
on the other hand, to complete mission also one of the motivation to keep me interesting to this game, because i can travel many places to search the item or person who i need to talk to, therefore, by doing this, i also explore many places in the game.
in my opinion, the game play of WOW has a delicate background, simple missions and gives player who is under level 10 having unlimited chance to survive.
i very enjoy this game, and i am willing to keep on.

WOW mini report -- Lawrence

Level 1 to level 5 is just a little tiny journey in the world of war craft. You don’t have powerful weapons or awesome armors. Actually when you are level 1, you are always born in the village where you can get familiar with the game environment, understanding the story and get used to the controls. My character is a hunter. 1 to 5 is all about killing animals and finished the quest. However you can still get a lot of fun with it, because the story in the quest is always interesting. No doubt of that the game has an excellent performance on the graphics. And some of the system is pretty strong. For example the quest guiding system which is just being used in the latest 1 or 2 patch, it makes the progress of doing the quest much easier. If people have time to get your character reached level 10 it will be much more fun with the talent system, you can say it’s kind of your personality.



Be honestly, if people really want to enjoy the game it’s better to spend some times to reach level 80… because the real interesting part of WOW always start from the moment when player reach the highest level in the patch.

I chose rogue as my character in my game. It was my first time to play this game. Thus, I found that it was a little difficult to play it at the beginning. However, I continue to playing it for two hours. I think that this game is very realistic and interesting. Meanwhile, when I controled rogue to kill enemy, it made me very excited. Rogue is a wonderful killer.
I spent two and half hours in getting five levels.

2083_Henry Doom1 Report

Doom1 Report

Doom one is definitely a cannon game in the whole game history. Doom1 is playing an important role during the development of games. ­It seems to be like a milestone for a long time.

Doom is belongs to first-person shooter game, which is designed by id Software in 1993. It is quite popular among players all the time. Doom has made six series, which is still keeping its fix state in competitive game industry. There are some reasons for explaining why Doom is so popular and widely played for the whole world. The game has pioneering impressive 3D graphics and true third dimension spatiality for the first person genre. Its realistic graphics and interactive violence, as well as its satanic imagery, also made it quite different from ordinary and traditional first person shooter games and pretty unique. A player is easily absorbed to play Doom for a long time, because Doom is so attractive and different for player, which makes people feel very exciting, even feeling blood heated. It is estimated that approximately 10 million people play Doom. The number of people who played Doom has proved that Doom1 is completely a cannon game.

Plot

Welcome to DOOM, a lightning-fast virtual reality adventure where you are the toughest space trooper ever to suck vacuum. Unluckily, you teammates are all dead. As the last man standing, your mission is to shoot your way through a monster-infested holocaust in order to keep from attacking earth. Living to tell the truth to earth people is the final mission.

The game play for DOOM is quite simple. This is not a cumbersome adventure game, but an action-oriented mission. Using your wits is IMPORTANT. To escape DOOM, you need both brains and the killer instinct.

Game play

Before making presentation, honestly, I never heard of Doom1. Maybe, I do not often play some big or video games, even I am first play video during senior game. Because when I was study in city in senior school, I start a chance to touch video game. At the beginning, I do not know much Doom, which results me not play much time in Doom. However, I teacher teach me a lesson about Doom, when I start to playing Doom again. This time, I focus on my energy and time to play it. With playing different level, I find that I was attractive by cool action and killing monster feeling from game, even starting to enjoy this feeling. Now,

Although I cannot say that I am like a expert, I am good at playing this game for a long time. It took me too much long time to play this game. Thus, I have to put on my report, but I think that it is worth with doing it. Because I enjoyed playing Doom. In fact, FPS genre game is my favorite style. For example, both Counter Strike and Battlefield are my favorites.

Through a long time playing Doom, I get some great feelings.

The good side of this game is that the structure of building is very clear and simple. For example, when play in any level, I can quickly find the doors and directions, which save me lots of time lead me to kill monsters quickly. Lots of demonic monsters are along the road. Also, additional ammo, health increases and other “power-ups” along the way, as well as some occasional secrete areas, which are not immediately obviously found as a reward for players who should be careful.

The weapons should be remarkable and notable. At the beginning, the player only has a pistol. There are a chainsaw, a shotgun, a chain gun, a rocketed launcher, a plasma rifle, and finally the immediately powerful BFG 9000. Using different weapons to kill monsters is so an exciting thing.

With increasing levels in Doom, the number of monsters is also increasing in the game. The characters look like so evil and bloody in the game. Even, when I was first time to play it, I was little scared with these monsters. However, playing for a while made me enjoy this style to kill monsters. When I shot bullets to monsters, monsters are spitting out of monsters’ body. This phenomenon will make game more realistic and exciting. When players are playing this game, you will be addictive to this game. Doom is making us feel pretty excited.

In addition, perfect background music is so match with this game. Exciting music make me feel that I like really shoot monsters in the life.

Reasons for Success:

Good Graphics:

In that age, this kind of images leaves players deep impressive in people minds. Because these graphics are so different from before all game’s graphics. It is totally unique.

Innovation:

Realistic, 3D scenes

KISS (Keep It Simple & Stupid):

Player is easy to play and enjoy it.

Rewarding:

When play it well, they can get reward in different level, such as bullets, weapons and health.

Conclusion:

Doom must be a cannon game. Because this game lots of player play this game. The game is so popular all over the world. The new technology is used in game. The story is so good. What all was mentioned above has proof this game is so important role in game industry. Doom is a milestone, especially in FPS genre.

2290 Kylin MY Character

2290 Kylin MY Character



I have played this game. It is my Character.



First thing first, at the initial stage, when I have just played this game, I feel the operation is quite complicated. There are dozens of functions about my character in this game. I forget some of them oftentimes. another negative feeling is the task is not easy, especially, the road is very long.



Nevertheless, there are tons of merits about this game. Can you image each of thess modes in this game is just approximately 700 polys? Yee, they are just 700 or less than it polys. To the next portion, the graphic is quite cool. Taking account of the sum of polys resperting each model, I suppose the graphic is incrediable emmenent. Besides, there are a lot of fascinating tasks. It sustains players' interest.



When I was playing it, I felt everything is outstanding,except the road is too much long.
