Hello everyone! I'm a game creator, and this issue is about the Federation, the villain organization in Call of Duty 10 Ghosts.
Flag of the Federation
Brother Thorn Er has been nearly confused for nearly a year, and he can say that he has his own certain understanding of human nature and the laws of the operation of the world.
In real life or the world, we will always have such an old saying: the country is easy to change and difficult to move!
For example, the United States, from the founding of the Country in 1776 to the present is only 246 years, the United States participated in the launch of the war is too much to count, so that many news celebrities mention how many times the United States launched the war? We will always see the saying that the United States has not participated in war for less than 20 years since its founding.
This also comes with the unwritten truth: you let a butcher run the business, he specifies that he is not good at it; but you let him cut meat kebabs, and he specifies that he will get started quickly.
Therefore, what the United States is good at is war, and the war genre in his film and television works is also famous in the world, and it is also very wonderful, after all, people are good at this.
This is why such an excellent AAA masterpiece as "Call of Duty" can only be developed in the United States, and it may not be possible to do it in other countries, after all, people have the most fertile war soil in the world.
♥ Call of Duty. The birth of Ghost
"Call of Duty 10. Ghost" was released in 2013, the background of the story is like this, in the near future, the Middle East Gulf region suffered a devastating blow (the reason is unknown, whether the Middle East was invaded by foreign enemies or a war between middle Eastern countries such as the Iran-Iraq War, the series did not specifically disclose), but there is an indisputable fact, the Middle East was destroyed, oil exports could not be exported, the United States, which relied on Middle East oil, panicked, one was the blow to its industry without oil, and the other was another place to produce oil. His back garden, South America, had by this time established a "federation" organization with the support of China and Russia and some European countries. (Looking at the popularity of the United States at this time, China and Russia are sworn enemies, not to mention, some European countries have also rebelled, and then think that the people who can vigorously support the South American Federation will certainly not be small countries such as Romania and Bulgaria, think about it, it must be countries like Britain, France and Germany, and even these little brothers have offended) The Federation will set its capital in Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, becoming a new superpower.
Here, the thorn brother has a question, such a big thing as the capital, generally speaking, is such a law, or choose the big cities recognized by everyone, like South America, more excellent than Caracas, like Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, São Paulo and Buenos Aires in Argentina, pull out which one is stronger than Caracas, or simply consider a certain functional choice or rebuild the capital, such as Santiago in Chile, which is absolutely appropriate and easy to defend and difficult to attack, such as the capital of Bolivia, which is also a landlocked city Why the work set the capital of the federation in Caracas, the capital of Bolivia.
Flag of Bolivia
This involves Bolivia's diplomatic relations with the United States, which since 2005, Bolivian President Morales has been elected, including his successor Chávez and now Katacora, without exception, to implement the policy of the Left Front, which for the United States Bolivia has become another thorn in the head of Cuba.
Coupled with the fact that during Morales' presidency, Bolivia had an important voice in OPEC, which was a headache for the United States, which was very dependent on oil, so the hatred for Bolivia was also reasonable.
It can be said that Bolivia can be hacked by the United States in the game, and it is only natural.
♥ The rise of the Federation
The rise of the federation can be said to be a doubt that makes the thorn head brother still puzzled.
Why? Because of the game's two levels, the first is the Independence Day level, where the Ghost Squad lurks in Caracas to capture Ramos.
Caracas, the capital of the Federation
As can be seen from the above figure, Caracas at this time is like an international metropolis, and even more prosperous than metropolises such as New York, Tokyo, Shanghai, and Hong Kong.
Look at another level, that is, the villain BOSS Locke and the protagonist's father to execute the level of killing the Federation General Amagro.
Caracas, the capital of the Federation
According to the setting of the storyline, Locke and his party carried out the capture and killing of General Amagro twelve years ago.
Twelve years ago, Caracas was no different from an ordinary third-tier small city, but twelve years later, it has become an international metropolis.
Here, Brother Thorn er has to doubt the rigor of editing, China's Shenzhen has developed from a small fishing village to a first-tier big city, which is fast enough! But it took almost thirty years, caracas only twelve years, this speed is the production team's donkey 007, 24 hours without rest may not be able to catch up with such a speed.
Although the background of the story is introduced and supplemented in some off-game articles, but with the support of some European and American countries in China and Russia, if it is reasonable to support Bolivia as a single country, if in twelve years, the support of Bolivia is not only strong but also annexed to the whole of Latin America, it is obvious that this time is a bit too much.
♥ Operation of the Federation
If the Federation is a kind of organization, how does it operate? Being able to develop rapidly in a short period of time and unify the whole of Latin America, the country that Thorn Brother believes can be similar to reality is Nazi Germany during World War II.
However, even compared with Nazi Germany, the rise of the Federation still has many irrationalities.
First, the main body of Germany is Germany itself, which has a complete industrial system, such as the Ruhr industrial zone. And what Venezuela has, the foreign exchange earned by a single oil and energy export, can rise like Germany, is obviously unrealistic.
To put it in layman's terms, Germany is like a lost swordsman, as long as he gives him money, he will naturally take money to buy or make weapons himself, he can dominate the jianghu, Venezuela is like a businessman, you give him money, he will not do martial arts and will not manufacture weapons to buy, how to dominate the jianghu?
Second, it took germany only twelve years from Hitler's Nazi Party to unify Europe, but before Germany provoked the world war, the state was completely bound to the war machine in every way. From the Nazi Party insurrection, to the Nazi Party's seizure of a seat in the Reichstag, to Hitler's rise to power, to the move toward military warfare in the national industrial system, to the flexible management of diplomacy, Nazi Germany was step by step reducing itself to the initiator of a world war.
And Venezuela obviously does not have the advantage of Germany, after all, venezuela's population is only 11 million, the land area of 1.09 million square kilometers, it is obvious that all aspects of the data, Venezuela even according to the game is set as the main body of the federation, it is not the best preferred country, except for Brazil is possible, the remaining countries do not have such conditions.
Third, in the game, one of the federation's biggest points of contention with the United States is the space weapon Odin.
At this point, the thorn brother believes that the United States is a bit insinuated, after all, in reality, South American countries do not have the power to develop into the space field, in the space field, can form a competitor with the United States only China, Russia and the European Union, which is in some foreign articles, will often mention the federation's biggest foreign aid is China and Russia and some European countries, it can be said that the old United States in this series, directly tit-for-tat little brother Bolivia, It also insinuately carries China and Russia and some European countries.
Why does Lao Mei have so many opponents implied in this series?
Brother Thorn believes that this is related to the foreign policy of the United States at that time, this period is the second period of Obama's re-election, the foreign policy of the United States began to target China and Russia in various ways, and even to its own little brother European countries also began to moth.
It can be said that the bad impression of the United States today began at this time.
Fourth, the death of General Amagro.
The death of General Amagro can be said to be the first big boss in the Call of Duty series to die the most abruptly, and the death method of the boss of the Call of Duty series has become more and more outrageous and abrupt.
Unlike the previous Modern Warfare series, Zakaev had several chances of being killed, but he did not die (Chernobyl level, originally Price could have been shot by Barrett, but only broke one of his arms, and finally came back to life), and it is this close but unrealized setting that makes players who have played the Modern Warfare series have a very regrettable and angry feeling, and invisibly paves a reasonable connection for the extension and ups and downs of the plot, including Black Ops One and Two, which is also a similar setting But from 10 onwards, the main villain General Amagro received a box lunch as soon as he appeared, which made the players have a very suspicious feeling of themselves, dying too hastily, so crisp, how did he come up with the position of general of the federation, and did he get it by spending money to buy officials?
So from 10, the thorn head brother believes that the Call of Duty series no longer has the taste of the previous, the previous Call of Duty series, like a glass of fine wine, the entrance is melted, mellow, is the throat, the fragrance of the wine can also be tasted with a full burp, after 10 Call of Duty is like the cheapest beer ordered by the street kebab shop, a mouthful, the entrance has a taste, swallowing can be nothing, no energy!
In short, the thorn head brother believes that from 10, the storyline of Call of Duty has become a McDonald's fast food form, the plot is too abrupt, the ins and outs of many things are not explained at all or taken in one stroke, unlike the series before 10, modern warfare and black ops series, there are very clear causes and consequences involved, so that players have a feeling of watching a series, and the sequel after 10 is like an independent movie, although the visual effects and details are more real, However, the storyline is divided into independent stories, which begin to be abrupt and end abruptly.
I am a thorn head brother, remember to like, retweet, comment, favorite, plus attention!
