Game Design: Players are moved to tears

Chapter 142 Two new heroes

"good idea?"

Li Qishan naturally believed in Liu Wei very much, but faced with this kind of mess.

Even if you still believe it, you still have to ask weakly.

Liu Wei smiled and waved his hand, exuding a mature aura:

"First of all, I came up with the inspiration of two heroes, let's spend the first two months first."

"Then we are launching an activity, a brainstorming activity."

"...Well, let the player provide inspiration, you know."

Li Qishan nodded in understanding, but then immediately shook his head.

He has seen a lot of this kind of activity, but not many of it can actually be used.

Players are just a bunch of leeks, they know nothing about the game!

After what Liu Wei said, he could probably think of the routine of the entire event.

It’s nothing more than a rotten voting and forwarding lottery.

But the problem is that when players design a certain skill, it is easy to design a supermodel hero.

Li Qishan once saw the design inspiration of a poster in the post bar of "ioi".

A female hero who uses hooks and locks as her main means of attack. She is cold, iron-blooded, and comes and goes like the wind.

You can use the hook lock to hook onto the wall for displacement, and skills can be released in the displacement map.

Multiple hook locks can be used at the same time to change the forward direction and speed.

This kind of completely alternative operation inspiration instantly ignited the entire post bar at that time, and even a professional boss sent the translation to the headquarters of Riot Games.

But... Li Qishan felt at the time that although this inspiration was great, it was a little too unreasonable.

This kind of hero with high difficulty, high benefits and basically no countermeasures simply destroys the balance of the game.

But what troubles Li Qishan the most is not the inspiration, but the players.

Why should players participate in this kind of inspiration contest?
What's the benefit?

The inspiration that you worked so hard and racked your brains to come up with ended up being someone else’s wedding dress. Would the player be willing?
Although it sounds good... it still feels a little weird.

Li Qishan raised his hand and asked: "Boss, if, I mean if, a player's inspiration is really selected, what should we do?"

Obviously, Li Qishan still doesn't think that any player's inspiration can be selected.

After all, the hero's skill design must first conform to the theme of the game, and secondly, the matching of his own skill set.

Just like the 'Hook Lock Hero' mentioned before, it will definitely destroy the balance in "ioi".

Liu Wei drank some water, took a breath and continued:

"Then reward them."

"Let me think about it, what reward should I give..."

"Well, giving money is too vulgar. It would be better to exchange it for rewards in the game. Of course, there should be some cash."

"How about this!"

Liu Wei clapped his hands and made some kind of decision:

“Once the player’s inspiration is selected, there will be a cash reward of [-], and there will also be an exclusive title prefix and a special skin commemoration.”

"Of course, neither the title nor the skin will have additional attributes, they just serve a show-off function."

"In addition to the exclusive title, other players can also purchase skins."

"As for those who can't be chosen..."

"Depending on the number of likes and retweets, a certain amount of cash rewards, game discounts, or at least some in-game gift packages will be given. In short, players cannot leave empty-handed."

Li Qishan was on the side, his eyes brightening the more he listened.

If Liu Wei hadn't left yet, he would have stood up and shouted: "The boss is wise!"

This method is great. With a little money, you can gain popularity and players’ inspiration for free.

"You work first, I'll leave first." After arranging the work, Liu Wei said and left.

Looking at Liu Wei's leaving figure, Li Qishan couldn't help but feel admiration in his heart.

Minimum cost to get maximum benefit.Well, it’s still a familiar boss, and it’s still a familiar smell.

……

Leave the company and return to the experience store.

Liu Wei immediately started preparing for the creation of a new hero.

Two brand new heroes——

One is a legendary hero whose every skill is god-level, but when combined, he is a waste, the God of Death in the Desert.

Passively comes with the blood-sucking effect of the vampire sword.

Q skill has infinite stack damage.

The w skill reduces the opponent's attack speed and movement speed by up to 96%.

e is aoe that reduces physical armor.

r increases attack distance, blood volume and double resistance, and can also reduce the cooldown of Q skill.

Each skill alone is god-level, but when combined together... the Oasis Living Buddha, a pressure-resistant monster, appears.

As a senior compression player, Liu Wei often goes to the Dog Head Bar to seek psychological comfort after being beaten by the opponent and his teammates chasing questions all over the screen.

Everyone in the dog head bar is calm and stable, and everyone is as stable as an old dog.

Every time after reading the speech of the brother from the Dog Head Bar, Liu Wei was thinking——

Why is it that when I play compression, my teammates are all from Nuoshou?
Everyone turns into a grumpy old man, why can't we just imitate the dog-headed old man?

The second hero is also a hero who suffered a lot in the early stage, but directly caused the opponent's base to explode in the later stage - the Angel of Justice.

These two heroes have one thing in common: they suffer in the early stage but are invincible in the middle and late stages.

And the most important thing is that once domestic players get used to these two heroes, they will not be scolded for playing compression.

The guys from Angel Bar and Dog Head Bar are good brothers who don’t know how to curse!

but……

Just when Liu Wei was immersed in his beautiful fantasy, Ling Jingwen's voice came from the outside world:
"Junior, come out quickly!"

Outside the studio, Ling Jingwen knocked on the door anxiously.

"Senior, what happened again?" Liu Wei opened the door and sighed helplessly.

Ling Jingwen pointed to the mobile phone: "Didn't Baofeng Company poach Bill Khan?"

"so?"

"I heard that they are also going to develop a brand new moba game, and they even named it as being created by the original team of "ioi". It is now the most popular game."

Liu Wei frowned and took the phone to take a look.

[Baofeng joins hands with the original team of "ioi" to create a new game "Miracle League" which will be launched at the end of this year. 】

The end of this year... Liu Wei silently calculated in his heart that there are still six months left.

If "ioi" is given six months to develop steadily, wouldn't "Miracle League" be out of business already?

"Okay, I get it now."

Returning the phone to Senior Sister Ling, Liu Wei replied in a calm tone.

"Oh, I told you so much, and you just gave me a reply?" Ling Jingwen was furious.

But...Liu Wei touched Senior Sister Ling’s hair and said with a smile:
"Okay, I get it now."

Ling Jingwen didn't know what was going on and softened instantly, but she still stubbornly turned her head and hummed: "Humph, it's good to know."

After saying that, he staggered away with his long legs.

"baffling."

Liu Wei returned to the room and decided to write a manuscript to collect inspiration from netizens.

After a while, Fumei Technology published a post:
[Fight to Fame: "ioi" is about to be reworked, and we are now soliciting inspiration for hero creation. 】

[Collection requirements: Posting under this post must be accompanied by a Fumei Technology account. 】

[Once the inspiration is adopted, an exclusive title and a cash reward of [-] will be given...]
