Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

During the period after the launch of Warcraft.

In addition to the plot in the game, it is attractive to some ordinary players.

Many players who are keen on RTS gameplay are also studying the gameplay and content in "Warcraft".

Not inferior to the single-player plot of "Warcraft", the RTS gameplay content of this game is much more complicated than they imagined.

At the beginning, basically most of the players are constantly building soldiers, building heroes, and then climbing the technology to fight them.

As for anything else, I don't understand at all.

But with a little understanding of the players, many RTS great players have discovered the impact of high-level heroes on the battle situation based on the characteristics of the game.

Moreover, the heroes themselves have been invented to use items, some simple tactics, etc.

For example, in the early stage, let the minion take the hero to level up, so as to improve the level of the hero faster.

At the same time, there are some targeted gameplay. For example, the swordsman of the orcs has a high wind walk, which can go to the enemy's house to harass the farmers.

Follow the enemy's leveling troops, and then use the extra damage of the wind step to make up for experience and treasures.

And in order to deal with the harassment of demon hunters such as juggernauts and fast-moving demon hunters who came to harass the house in the early stage, some players also discovered the mysteries of architecture in "Warcraft", such as blocking the road to the gold mine, so No more harassment.

In the office of Nebula Games, Chen Xu was testing the map editor of "Warcraft" at this time.

At this time, there was a knock on the door of the office, and Lin Rou walked in after being notified.

"Mr. Chen, Shark TV contacted us and said that they hope to obtain the authorization of a "Warcraft" competitive event." Lin Rou said to Chen Xu.

"Competitive events? Tell me in detail." Hearing Lin Rou's words, Chen Xu asked in a daze.

E-sports events, this part is actually in Chen Xu's plan.

After all, Warcraft is a competitive game.

It's just that Chen Xu hasn't thought about it at this stage.

Mainly because the level of "Warcraft" players is still uneven.

To be honest, there is not much gold content in holding a "Warcraft" competition.

And for players, it is actually more of a groping state at present, and the viewing experience is not so strong.

Because RTS is a special type of e-sports.

If you can understand it, it is definitely the most ornamental.

But if you don't understand it, your eyes will go black.

Because e-sports such as FPS and MOBA, even if you don't understand.

But what about a single kill, and 1 drop of blood to fight 100 drops of blood to fight back, you can still capture this simplest information.

What about RTS?

This is related to the operational aspects.

For example, if a hero dies once, some players directly tap GG; if a few peasants die, they directly tap GG;

For players who understand the mechanics of the game, this is normal.

Because you are already behind too much, this time is enough for your opponent to accumulate a big advantage and kill you a little bit.

But for players who don't understand it, they feel very inexplicable. They don't understand the tactics at all. In their opinion, one side dies a hero and three units, and then suddenly concedes defeat. They may even think that. Is it a match-fix for one of the parties?

The launch of RTS games at this stage is actually not a good thing in Chen Xu's opinion.

In addition, in the parallel world, the e-sports industry is not as backward as thought, on the contrary, it is still very prosperous.

Third-party event organizers, various sponsorship channels, as well as standardized clubs and corresponding guilds are very complete.

This also leads to the RTS e-sports, there are quite a lot of projects.

Although "Warcraft" is very hot, but it has just been launched and you want to operate an e-sports project?

With doubts, Chen Xu listened to Lin Rou's explanation, and then suddenly realized.

"Shark TV wants to do a platform event?" Chen Xu looked at Lin Judo.

It's very simple. On the live broadcast platform, I saw that the popularity of "Warcraft" is very high. In addition, there are many RTS gods on the platform who have signed up as anchors, so I want to buy a platform event authorization from Nebula Games and hold a Shark TV "Warcraft". Hegemony" monthly competition mode, let Shark TV's contracted anchors compete.

As for sponsorship, bonuses, and operations, all of them are carried out by Shark TV. Nebula Games takes a look at it as a supervisor, and then collects the money.

To put it bluntly, that is, the platform wants to organize an event and put on the name of a competition. As for the content, it is similar to the Internet cafe competition in the early days of e-sports.

There are no offline audiences, offline venues.

"You can contact the people at Shark TV. We can talk about this, but we have also set up a special department on our own side. Let's learn the relevant content first, as well as the doorway." Chen Xu thought for a while, Said towards Lin Rou.

In the field of e-sports, Chen Xu is also more fancy.

It's not for the money or something to follow the income of the game.

What makes Chen Xu most concerned about this kind of e-sports event is a promotion for the game.

When a game has a suitable pool, e-sports can be said to be a good way to stabilize player stickiness and IP.

For example, in previous games such as "League of Legends" and "DOTA", even if the number of players is decreasing, the IP value of the entire game has not declined at all.

Because many players still watch games even if they don’t play games, and for “Warcraft”, such IP value training is obviously necessary.

Of course, one point must be grasped. Third-party events go hand in hand with official events.

Just like Blizzard in the previous life, if you say he has the ability, he wants to eat alone, which led to SC2 in the previous life breaking up with third-party contractors in the golden age, and the good cards were smashed.

But if you want to say that he is incompetent, such as OW and other games whose popularity continues to decline, clubs and events are still doing well, and everyone can even have food.

In addition to further promoting the game this time with Shark TV, Chen Xu also wanted to cultivate a better understanding of the e-sports industry within Nebula Games.

After all, Nebula Games will inevitably develop this type of game in the future.

And this type of e-sports game is basically an evergreen tree that works well.

As for what the Shark TV side will do about the first "Internet Cafe Competition" of "Warcraft", we will talk about it slowly at that time.

After talking to Lin Rou, Chen Xu also sent a message to the work group.

Let HR see if there are any employees willing to transfer positions and recruit new ones.

………………

"Mr. Chen, are we going to hold an e-sports competition?" After talking to Lin Rou, Chen Xu exercised his muscles and walked towards the project room. Seeing Chen Xu, everyone seemed curious.

"Give an authorization and let Shark TV undertake it. Our own direct department will learn from the experience. Even if we officially want to do it, most of it will be handed over to a third party. We just need to have an understanding of this area and know how to operate a competitive game. "Chen Xu shook his head and said.

"But speaking of it, "Warcraft" does have the conditions to hold a competition." Qin Yi said.

At present, "Warcraft" has also been online for a period of time, and after an initial period, basically the level of players has gradually distinguished.

Coupled with the popularity of "Warcraft" in China, UU reading www. uukanshu.com basically crushed other RTS.

Therefore, there are also rumors that the major clubs will transform their other RTS game divisions into "Warcraft".

Coupled with the influx of other RTS professional players, there are actually no shortage of so-called great players.

"Okay, don't talk about this, you guys have enough rest during this time, and prepare the plan for the new version of "Warcraft"." Chen Xu smiled and said while looking at a few people.

Take out a document that has been printed a long time ago.

"Uh! The plan for the new version!?" Everyone was a little surprised, a new version will be released so soon?

But when they saw what was in front of them, the document was even more confused.

What is this for what?

'Guarding the Sword Pavilion', 'The Great Escape from the Pyramids', 'The Battle of the Demons', 'Fu Jia Tian', 'The Catastrophe of the Western World'?

How is "Warcraft" related to the pyramid and the sword pavilion?
