Chapter [-]: Is there a way out for click games?

Many media have given high praise to the appearance of the ot map. 【

Aishang Reading Network] Sina media believes that "ot has changed the embarrassing situation that Warcraft hegemony was not supported by ordinary players in the past. Until now, even ordinary people can easily play World of Warcraft." If ot appears, you still If you don't know how to play World of Warcraft, then you are really out-

The operation is simple and the gameplay is full. This kind of Warcraft, after the popularity of OT maps.A lot of ordinary players, including those Warcraft players who just played for a while before leaving.Now, they have returned to the embrace of Warcraft.From the data, since ot appeared.Basically, the more well-known battle platforms in the world, they are all playing crazy ot.

"Oh, Dodd, you also play Warcraft?"

"of course."

"Haha, with your skills, can you-manipulate a monster?"

"-fuck-no-fuck-do it well, it's not up to you, let's play a game and see who wins and who loses."

Only - operate - a hero, he is really too simple.For this reason, those gamers who used to be relatively good.In fact, they also have amazing talents.However, the original regular Warcraft, he really has some requirements for the operation of the keyboard with both hands.This frustrates those guys with strong brains but inflexible hands.Now, after ot appeared.The manipulability of both hands has been greatly reduced, and what has been brought about is exhaustive strategic competition.

Until this point, that's the strategy.

Otherwise, just relying on the quick-operation-operation-keyboard and so on with both hands will not make people depressed to death.

Therefore, with the popularity of ot.Warcraft 3 became popular all over the world again. Those friends who did not buy Warcraft 3 before, after learning of the appearance of this ot, also joined in the embrace of buying ot.Especially for Chinese players. After the emergence of OT, the growth of Chinese Warcraft players is undoubtedly the most astonishing.Although in China, the price of Warcraft 3 is much lower.However, I can't stand the crowd.

In this way, Warcraft 3 broke out another sales record after the previous sales frenzy.

"50 copies."

"60 copies."

"70 copies."

……

This record is still going on, and you will never know how big the world's purchase potential for Warcraft is.

"With the rise of single-click competitive games, online games are not alone."

Faced with such a sales record, the entire European and American game industry was dumbfounded.When the media released another sales record of Warcraft 3, they suddenly didn't know what to do.If it is said that Tang Dynasty Company's online games seized the entire market before, it forced them to enter the online game market.But looking at it now, click competitive games, he has not lost his market.The reason why online games appear is to play single-click games so that there is no room for retaliation. It is entirely because the games you developed are not very good.

So, when your game is impacted by the online game World of Warcraft.Naturally, it failed all at once.

"Click or online game, what do you choose?"

Until then, we found out.Before the European and American game markets, there are two paths, whether to continue to develop online games, or to return to single-click games.If they continue to develop online games, can these European and American game companies succeed?Although we all say that online games and clicking are games.However, he is still very different.European and American game companies are not familiar with online games, and now they are fully involved in it.If the whole line fails at that time, it will be depressing.

All of a sudden, with another sales record for Warcraft, the media began to hesitate.Originally, in order not to lose their market.Being forced, he had no choice but to enter the field of online games.However, when they saw that the point-and-click game was resurrected, it suddenly became awkward again.

What a dilemma.

"Mike, although the sales figure of 70 yuan has not reached half of the original. However, only a little time has passed now..."

Chen Jiayi was in another city in the United States and met Mike of Electric Blizzard.

"Oh, Chen, you have successfully convinced me. I think there is no reason for us Blizzard to enter the field of online games."

Looking at it now, he can still make so much money in single-click games.Moreover, Blizzard's golden signboard is still very valuable.In addition, Blizzard has been developing click games and has accumulated a wealth of experience.Not as good, and just keep developing clicks.After all, although online games are good, not any game company can afford him.

Mike thought so.

"Okay, I think, let's talk about the development plan of Warcraft 4 next."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Jiayi was in a good mood, almost humming.

Judging from the current situation, European and American game companies may have been stimulated by Warcraft's sales records.Although, at present, no company has returned to the click game market.However, Chen Jiayi knew that this kind of dilemma and not knowing what to do would definitely make their development plan much more difficult.

It seems that the heat is not enough.

After all, Blizzard, a well-established company, cannot use common sense to overcome it.Even, some companies will think about it.Even if the world's game companies are over, Blizzard will not be over.In this way, Warcraft 3's sales data again, although some companies are jealous.However, it seems that they still have some difficulty in making plans to return to the point-and-click game market.

However, Chen Jiayi still has arrangements.If it was just a blizzard, why would Chen Jiayi come to the United States in person?In addition to Blizzard, Chen Jiayi also has a big killing move.That is, Tang Dynasty Company also has a game company in the United States.Although this game company was not founded by Tang Dynasty Company, it has now been fully acquired by Tang Dynasty Investment.

This gaming company, if nothing else, is Call of Duty.

The Call of Duty game group has been developing Call of Duty games since Tang Chao invested and acquired them.For this reason, the Call of Duty game group also released Call of Duty in the last few China Game Shows.And, judging by the sales data of Call of Duty.Although not as good as Warcraft.But with the help of Tang Chao Company, his sales figures have also made many game companies jealous.

Since then, after the success of Call of Duty 1, the Call of Duty game group has invested in the development of Call of Duty 2.

Today, Chen Jiayi came to Washington, USA.

Washington, Chen Jiayi did not come to visit this historic city.The purpose of his coming here is because the "Call of Duty" game studio is here.As soon as Chen Jia came here, there was no other reason, mainly because Call of Duty 2 was coming out soon, and he wanted to take a look at the research and development of Call of Duty 2.

Of course, from the perspective of future generations, Call of Duty 2 is naturally better than Call of Duty 1.

For example, in Call of Duty 1, although the whole system is amazing.However, his graphics, as well as some other settings, still retain the characteristics of the game era of the last century.Moreover, the first generation of Call of Duty did not have the function of recovering blood, nor did it have the function of saving files. This made many players stop playing halfway through the game, and had to start all over again next time.

Until the second generation, the screen and system were greatly updated.The blood recovery and automatic save functions have become the standard of the game system in the future.In addition, the plot is complete, and the atmosphere of the Soviet battlefield is also reflected as if you were there. In terms of appeal, the second generation is much stronger than the first generation.However, now that "Call of Duty" has been acquired by Tang Chao Company, whether there will be any surprises, or whether there will be other surprises, it is impossible for Chen Jiayi to make a judgment in advance without seeing it.

Ahead is Call of Duty Studios.

Looking at the building in front of him, there was a "Call of Duty" sign above his head, and Chen Jiayi passed by.

Just as Chen Jia stepped into the elevator and was about to go directly to the 17th floor.An American guy rushed in, and with a bang, he had a close contact with the elevator.Moreover, the information in this guy's hand was scattered in the elevator at once.However, this young man didn't pay attention to whether he was injured. When he saw the data dropped, he quickly squatted down to pick it up.

"Hey...Call of Duty."

Seeing the materials falling on the ground, Chen Jiayi didn't care about anything, so he helped the young man pick them up together.When Chen Jiayi was about to hand it back to this guy, he accidentally saw these materials, which were written about the call of duty.

"Thank you, hello, my name is "Ai Hua" and I work for Call of Duty."

The American boy shook hands with Chen Jiayi cheerfully, and introduced himself.

"Hello, your game development is very good, I like playing it very much."

"Yes, thank you."

The two chatted in the elevator.

"However, I've heard that a lot of Americans don't play point-and-click games these days."

While chatting, Chen Jiayi asked about this young American guy.

"Yes, online games are popular all over the world. Naturally, not many people are willing to develop single-click games."

Ai Hua stretched out his hand, expressing his pity.

"That's such a pity."

Such a situation was not caused by Chen Jiayi, so what else.

Although Chen Jiayi kept laughing inwardly, even if Chen Jiayi was killed, Chen Jiayi would not say that this is what I did.

"I think there are still many classic gameplays in point-and-click games. If this is not developed, we may lose a lot of joy."

Call of Duty is not the only company in the whole building, there are many people who take the elevator.From time to time, someone else comes in.Therefore, Chen Jiayi and this guy chatted for a while.

"By the way, why are you still developing?"

"us?"

Hearing Chen Jiayi's rhetorical question, the American guy laughed, "Online games are good, but we think that single-click games are also good. Just like our Call of Duty, I believe that as soon as it comes out, it will definitely become popular all over the world." .”

It seems that this American guy is very confident about the Call of Duty, even with it, Chen Jiayi feels relieved.Come to think of it, Call of Duty 2 was developed pretty well.Otherwise, how could this guy have any confidence.If it is a bad game, I am afraid that only a genius-like master can always be optimistic about his game and think that his game is very good.Otherwise, which employee would regard the bad game they developed as a classic?This is the difference between a boss and an employee.

"Here, nice to meet you, I'm going to work."

Finally arrived at the 17th floor, Ai Hua shook hands with Chen Jia again and was about to leave.

"Hey, wait, I'm on the 17th floor too."

After all, Chen Jiayi walked out of the elevator together.

"what?"

The 17th floor is all the "Call of Duty" game area. For this American guy, he obviously doesn't know why Chen Jiayi is here.

"Um, I'm here to find someone for you."

Chen Jia laughed, and then joined the Call of Duty working group with this American guy.

"Oh, yes, maybe I do."

Although this American guy has just entered the Call of Duty studio not long ago.However, the guy has a good relationship with his colleagues.Basically, he has almost all the people in the game working group.Even with the original Call of Duty managers, that is, a generation of developers, I have met several times.Moreover, the American guy also learned from his colleagues.In the beginning, the Call of Duty generation was developed in a very difficult environment.

Therefore, he has always admired a generation of developers.

"Well, that's what I'm looking for, David."

"David?"

who.

The American boy shook his head, and then said, "Well, among my colleagues, there is no one named David. Are you looking for the wrong person?"

"Haha, whoever said that there is no one named David, I will call David, Ai Hua, and go to work."

Just when Ai Hua shook his head to express that he didn't know.Suddenly, a boss-level figure from the Call of Duty studio stepped out.

"Ah, boss."

Seeing this boss come out, Ai Hua finally realized, "It turns out that my boss is called David."

"Hi David, we meet again."

Chen Jiayi smiled, this David, it was Chen Jiayi who gave him his business card back then.Although in the past few years, Chen Jiayi has not cared about Call of Duty.However, he still knew about this David.

"Yes, it should be said that you are my boss now."

"Hehe, yeah. I don't want to mention the boss or the boss. I came today and I just want to watch your game."

Chen Jiayi went directly to the topic.

"Okay, there is no problem, we have long hoped that you can come to visit us."

For Chen Jiayi, David was so admirable.

Of course, this admiration is not Chen Jiayi's business strategy.It is Chen Jiayi's understanding of the game and the direction of the game, which is beyond ordinary people's unique vision.Not to mention David's admiration, I'm afraid he is a master of game development in the world. When they mention Chen Jiayi, they probably have to say, "Chen Jiayi, he is simply a genius, no, he is a monster."

Afterwards, under the leadership of David, Chen Jiayi entered the Call of Duty R&D room.

"The second-generation Call of Duty adopts a brand-new 3-engine design, which increases the realism of the picture. Moreover, the entire second-generation design, because the development funds are sufficient, so we have also carried out a relatively large number of details. Perfect. Like battlefield sound effects, we have enabled 51 channels to give players an immersive feeling..."

While walking, David introduced Chen Jiayi.

"At the same time, we have also increased the difficulty of the battle a lot. The IQ of the computer set in the system is very high, and they can often make strategies that cannot even be imagined by the human brain. To give an example, if you are going to lie down in the game When you are behind the bunker, maybe the computer guy will throw a grenade and come to your side."

"looks good."

Hearing these introductions, Chen Jiayi felt great.At least, from the introduction point of view, this Call of Duty, many of its settings are much more perfect than the first generation.Since the first generation can sell a lot, how can the second generation be weak.

"Well, let's try it out."

Perhaps, just introducing it in words cannot make Chen Jiayi feel the excitement of "Call of Duty".For this reason, David is going to ask Chen Jia to try this Call of Duty.And to test the level of a game, only through trial play.After finishing speaking, David directly brought Chen Jiayi to the American boy just now.

……

"Hey, listen to me, I brought a Chinese in just now, and the boss David personally received him. I guess, this Chinese must be sent by the Tang Dynasty company headquarters."

"Really."

At this time, Ai Hua had already chatted with his colleagues about Chen Jiayi.

"I just don't know who he is?"

For this reason, Ai Hua tried hard to figure out who this person was.

"Hehe, okay, no need to guess. Let me introduce myself, my name is Chen Jiayi, and I'm from China."

As soon as Chen Jia and David came in, they heard the American boy chatting from time to time.

"Chen Jiayi, the name is good, it feels a bit like hen from Tang Dynasty Company."

It seems that this American guy is really confused.

"Oh, yes, I'm so honored."

Seeing that Ai Hua hadn't reacted yet, David sighed how could God create such a person.If it weren't for Ai Hua's good game development ability, David would really talk to him thoroughly.However, seeing that he still hadn't reacted, David didn't bother to explain any more, and then said, "Don't do it, why don't you stand aside and explain our game to me?"

"Ok, ok, ok, no problem."

Seeing David's redness, Ai Hua immediately began to chatter.

From Chen Jiayi's start of the game, to entering the battle, and even the various game features, Ai Hua described them all.

"In the battlefield, effects such as light and shadow, explosion, fire, and smoke are more perfect on our second-generation engine. You can even use smoke, or rely on smoke to hide your whereabouts, and support various climate changes, The visual concealment effect produced by the change of light and shadow in the morning and dusk."

"Yeah, I'll try."

Following Ai Hua's explanation, Chen Jiayi directly threw a smoke, and then found a place.Soon, the computer guy didn't know where Chen Jiayi had gone.

"That's right, very real, similar to the battlefield."

Afterwards, Chen Jiayi played for more than ten minutes, and Chen Jiayi realized the intelligence of the computer that David just mentioned.For example, when Chen Jiayi was about to charge to take down the stronghold, when they saw Chen Jiayi approaching, they would frantically suppress you with machine guns.When you want to snipe with a rifle, they will cover each other and constantly move their positions.

This is the enemy, that is, the German army.However, in comparison, the behavior of his teammates seemed a bit stupid.Perhaps, the producer's intention is to let the player take more responsibility. Seeing his teammates fall under the enemy's guns one by one, Chen Jiayi really has the urge to block the guns.

"Of course, these are just some battles with the computer people. Our second-generation Call of Duty has also carried out a lot of design. For example, we have also carried out more innovations in multiplayer battles. Among them, the second-generation Call of Duty Not only the standard m, tm and capture the flag modes. But also, seek and blow up multiplayer modes."

This game mode is somewhat similar to the game mode in s.

One team of players needs to use bombs to blow up some facilities, while the other team needs to stop them.

"There is also a mode, which we call the "hequrters" game mode. In this mode, one of the two players chooses a score point on the map as the headquarters. After the game starts, the score point starts to add points, while the other side must Stop it. One way to defend is to revive until the end of the round. In the game, both sides must adapt to different combat forms and weapons. Various rifles, submachine guns and shotguns can play a huge role in different places. And multiplayer mode The m3 "grease gun", "submachine gun" and Winchester 1897 shotgun in the game are hidden weapons that cannot be found in the single player mode."

I have to say that this "Ai Hua" is really a talent, even better than "David" in his eloquence.Under his explanation, there are some characteristics that are almost not characteristic, but his speech is extremely gorgeous.It makes people feel that Call of Duty is a real click game masterpiece.

"awesome."

After playing a few rounds, Chen Jiayi has a complete understanding of this game.For him, the second generation of Call of Duty is more classic than the second generation of later generations.This kind of classic is not only in the perfection of details.In particular, the various multiplayer battle systems added to Call of Duty have raised Call of Duty to a new level.

Because, we know that if the single-click game wants to develop, it must not have much future for purely individual single-player.On the other hand, because of the addition of multiplayer battles, especially with the development of the Internet, he has reached another peak with the single-click games of the Battle.net platform.With the support of the Battle.net system, although these click games are still click games.However, he has united people from all over the world. In a sense, he is also a kind of online game.

If you want to ask Chen Jiayi, where is the way out for click games?Chen Jiayi will tell you that it is a multiplayer online battle.

Just like BNB, karts and the like, why is he so crazy.That's because he turned this competitive click into a global multiplayer battle.At this time, he has become a truly world-class masterpiece.Also because of this game direction, in later generations, the adaptation of s into Crossfire became so popular.
