As a new world, mobile games have attracted a large number of "gold diggers" to enter the market in just a few years. Make this continent a battlefield full of smoke. Under this kind of competition, survival or death always tests the soft and hard strength of the entrants. The competition in the blue ocean requires not only the products as king, but also the iron-blooded military spirit. In this vast ocean, military-themed mobile games, as their branch, remain within a balanced value due to their special user attributes, but it does not mean that there is no competition for military-themed mobile games. Its "channel" is still full of competing players. By 2016, with the emergence of major IP adaptations, will the expedition for military-themed mobile games continue? "Lightning Raid" released by Ice Dino Entertainment uses the power of tanks to fight in the mobile game Deep Blue Continent.

Before 2016, although military-themed mobile games had covered sea, land and air, their combat performance was mostly carried out in the form of storyboard viewing, which was insufficient in terms of operation and participation. Or it may be expressed in a turn-based form, and various array-changing feedback cannot be given like the real battlefield. By the end of 2014 and 2015, although military-style mobile games realized the lack of interpretation of real battlefield inversion and gradually developed strategic and semi-instant combat methods, over-emphasizing 3D scenes made users feel overwhelmed for a certain period of time.

Compared with 3D mobile games, although mobile games with 2D images are not trendy in overall game quality performance, once the details such as shadows and lighting are outlined clearly, it is not inferior to 3D images overall. It can be used for various types of mobile phone carriers, and can draw more calculation processes to deduce the game system and PVP algorithms, so that the game does not consume too much memory space, but also has a cost-effective gameplay.

The military strategy mobile game "Lightning Raid" was born in 2016. Its sandbox-style real-time combat operation has got rid of the old third-party perspective of "storyboard watching blockbusters" and the complicated waiting of "turning cannons". From a overlooking perspective, players control the details of every grass and a tree on the battlefield throughout the whole process. They fight in real time. Players don’t act as off-screen spectators early, and operate their fingertips in fragmented time. Each touch will produce different results.

As a type of game for military and military fans, the military-style games are once restored to the details of weapons. Overly empty backgrounds and weapons are often criticized by players. In particular, once there are obvious attribute loopholes in this type of empty weapons, players will enter the love and kill each other and fanatical criticism mode. Therefore, appropriate introduction of tanks from real history and fine restores them can make players feel intimate and more willing to participate in this finger battle.

"Lightning Raid" excerpts several of the most famous continental battles in World War IIThe battle: Polish blitzkrieg, Stalingrad defense battle, Kursk tank battle, Dunkirk retreat, etc., melts the classic tanks in history, modern name tanks and near-future black technology tanks into one furnace, and is subdivided into six major types. The details of the tank refer to the classic tank types. Whether it is the gun caliber, track density, machine gun orientation, front and rear guide wheel spacing, etc., it is in line with the prototype vehicle. It is also a true fit for the original tank color combination, armor thickness, tonnage displacement and personal naming. The tanks clamp and cooperate with each other, highlighting the strategy of the game.

At the same time, "Lightning Raid" not only emphasizes the role of tanks, but also expands the collection function of famous World War II generals. Famous generals familiar in history, such as MacArthur (the one who despised China's threat of "we will win a complete victory in North Korea"), Zhukov, Montgomery, Nimitz, Rommel, Rossovsky, etc., let go of the barriers of the camp and gathered under the players for the first time to obey the players' dispatch. Cooperate with each other and use their own combat skills on the battlefield to cooperate with players to smash the evil conspirators' attempts, and reshape the rewritten history of World War II.

Looking at the rankings of several major game, most of the games that appear frequently are high-exposure IPs and some major works of major manufacturers. Military-themed mobile games are often not tough enough in attacks and confrontations. But not being tough enough does not mean that military-style mobile games have been abandoned. In any case, this type of mobile game still has a considerable number of user bases. In the era of mobile game market segmentation, if this part of the user base can be stabilized and become a core user, it will be more aggressive than a small number of other mobile games that frequently open servers and frequently roll over servers. Under the existing real-time battle, "Lightning Raid" adds elements such as card collection, building development, team competition, first-person shooting and defense, which has the possibility of breaking through the consistent ideas of military and martial arts themes.

Now, mobile games have entered the era of products as kings, and major manufacturers are gradually beginning to shrink their tactics and focus on the impact of the refined market. As one of the earliest types of games to conduct market segmentation, military-arms mobile games have already sharpened their edges. Although their expedition may not be a journey to the sun, they are at least very energetic.
