The Rebirth of the Male God Starts From Playing Games Chapter 203

  Chapter 203 201. Without Blizzard, Bomi is nothing!

   "Not enough manpower." Liu Guangran said.

   "Huh?" Cao Yang looked at him suspiciously.

  "Boss, hasn't Blizzard handed over "Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne"? If you want to release it, it feels like the team is not enough." Liu Guangran said.

   "Why?" Cao Yang asked, "Didn't you say that there was no problem with the technical transfer?"

  "It's not a technical problem. I'm in charge of this game now, but the entire project team only has programs. I'm worried about what might go wrong."

  Cao Yang laughed silently.

  Now that Liu Guangran realizes that planning is the core of the game, it's great.

  In his previous life, Cao Yang encountered a lot of art or programs that didn't know himself. When they were leading the project, they would always ignore the planning. The result was the problem:

  Maybe the game's graphics are very good, but it lacks playability and is numerically messed up.

  Because of art-led projects, the planning will make compromises and concessions to some extent.

For example, the art is the product manager. He thinks that this effect is good and must be used. The setting of this character is very popular. If this is the case, it may cause the performance of the game to decline, or if it is not easy to use, the character may look like this. The above is really pleasing, but there are actually problems when assigning values ​​and movements.

  Correspondingly, the program-led ones will also have such problems...

  So in the previous life, most of the game manufacturers, especially the big ones, had more than 90% of their projects led by planning.

  Because the planning and consideration will be more comprehensive and comprehensive, and will be more considerate of the player's feelings. They do things more rationally, starting from the game itself, it is difficult to be biased.

  Of course, it's not a producer who has no great art or program background, but there are relatively few.

  At the beginning, Cao Yang's most worried problem was -

  Liu Guangran is regarded as the company's second-in-command. He has been playing games for so many years, and he is actually worthy of Cao Yang's trust, but after a long time, will there be any confusion.

  For example, relying on their seniority and ability (programming ability), they began to point fingers at the project and regarded the project as their own.

  Now it seems that Liu Guangran is a perfect program director.

  He puts himself in a very correct position, what he is good at and what he is not good at.

  What should I do and what shouldn't be meddling...

  Like this time, I have become accustomed to planning dominance. Every team must have a plan to plan all the working modes of gameplay. After Liu Guangran took over "Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne", he felt very uncomfortable.

  Because this time, no matter how good the game is, no one commented.

  No one has designed and changed the content of the game. No one has told Liu Guangran which things need to be done by the program, and which things do not need to be changed.

  This is actually a very panic situation.

   Liu Guangran is really panicking.

  Because there is no planning team, it means that everything has to be decided by him. The problem is that Liu Guangran has not made a decision. He was ridiculed by Ai Xiaomi for his taste in playing games.

  Yesterday Liu Guangran felt very depressed. He was afraid that such a big game IP would finally be folded in his hands because there was no planning team. So early this morning, Liu Guangran came to see Boss Cao [Important]

   is actually the team brain of the project.

  A team without planning is a team without a soul and no one is in charge.

   Liu Guangran felt the fear of not planning for the first time.

  Cao Yang still admires him for this.

  Accurately know oneself, this alone, Liu Guangran has crushed most people now, crushing at least 90% of programmers.

  Then, Liu Guangran is still a great technical expert. In addition, he has been playing games with Cao Yang for several years. He has rich experience in game technology and has also gained a lot of training. Now Liu Guangran's level is definitely one of the best in the industry.

  In this case, Liu Guangran is still very humble, not daring to be arbitrary, but has been playing games in accordance with Cao Yang's [planning-led] philosophy.

  How can I make Boss Cao dislike such a beloved person?

   "It's okay," Cao Yang laughed, "This game basically does not require planning. You only need to ensure that the existing functions are ok, and there are no obstructive bugs."

  "How can it work?" Liu Guangran disagreed with Cao Yang's statement, "A team without planning is a team without soul."

"Um……"

  Cao Yang frowned.

  He actually agrees with Liu Guangran's point of view.

  But so far, Bomi can't get any manpower.

  The only ones who are free are the two king teams that have just completed the king online.

  Many of them were recruited to the "Shan Hai Jing".

  Even if he was not recruited, Cao Yang felt that the king's plan was not suitable.

The reason why    is not suitable is simple-

  Because Warcraft and Glory of Kings are completely two different types of games.

The Glory of the Kings series itself is a galgame route. There are not many battles or numerical adjustments. It is mainly based on the plot and the screen. The planning of this kind of game requires Cao Yang to be able to grasp the plot and have a strong command. Sense of lens.

  And Warcraft is a numerical game, to be precise, it is a numerical game with very complex numerical values.

  It needs a very high balance****There are 4 races in it, at different stages in the early, middle and late stages, and each race has its own growth curve...

  It is precisely because of these differences that the balance of the game is particularly difficult to adjust.

  Once a certain point is not well controlled, it may lead to a situation where one of them dominates.

  So Liu Guangran was right, this game needs planning.

  In particular, an experienced and very powerful numerical planning is required.

  Bomi team has, but such numerical planning, either in the Three Kingdoms online, or in the Shanhaijing, now can not be transferred.

Cao Yang frowned and thought about it, "Let's just go back and watch the technical part of the game first to ensure that there will be no major problems and optimize the user experience, and then I will find a way to recruit a few good plans. "

"OK."

After getting a reply from the boss, Liu Guangran beamed his eyebrows, then stood up and left the office.

  Only Cao Yang was left with a worried look behind him.

  If there is no suitable plan to recruit, then it seems that on the "Warcraft 3: Frozen Throne" side, only Cao Yang can lead people.

  Cao Yang is not unacceptable, but some avatars lack skills, and it is really difficult to teach about such a delicate work of adjusting the value.

  He sat in a chair, facing up to the sky, and felt the difficulty deeply.

  According to Cao Yang's idea, "Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne" must be a great numerical plan.

What's more frightening is that the numerical planning of this game is completely different from the numerical planning of other games. For example, the numerical value of Three Kingdoms online mainly lies in the digging and battle design, which lengthens the timeline and allows players to gain in the process of upgrading. Sense of growth.

  The requirements of this type of value are not so precise, because the official can completely dilute the value gap through time in the long-term game time.

To give a very simple example, for example, the professional imbalance in online games, it is possible that the level 40 fighters in the Three Kingdoms online have 50 points higher than the swordsmen of the same level in combat attributes, but these 50 points can be smoothed out by future upgrades. , When it reaches level 45, it may be that the swordsman is so much better than the warriors...

  Because it is a large numerical experience, as long as there are no major errors in building the numerical model, it can be adjusted.

  But "Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne" is different.

  This game genre is really too special. It is so special that a new vocabulary has been invented specifically for this game genre in the world——

  Athletics games.

  StarCraft 2, CS, Frozen Throne and future dota, lol...all belong to this type.

How special is this type?

  Maybe you just modified the agility attribute of Juggernaut 0.1, which may cause the orc race to completely suppress the other three races: night elves, undead, humans...

  It is also possible that because you modified the 0.1 armor of the Terran Tower, the Terran is against the sky.

  This is called moving the whole body by one move. The balance of competitive games is very difficult to adjust.

  This is why, every time LOL is updated, Carter must be cut, because it is difficult to adjust.

  Official adjustment is one thing, and player discovery is another.

Some heroes may seem to have been cut hard enough, but there are a small group of players who are against the sky can rely on her to play against the sense of existence. If you don't cut it, it will be difficult to satisfy the players, but if you cut it, it will be difficult to satisfy the players. It may lead to the complete abandonment of this hero.

   is actually very difficult.

  Compared with League of Legends, Warcraft is the same. Even if you cut the Terran tower n times, Sky can still fight Grubby unable to get out.

  The night elves you have cut n times, the moon can also play out this race.

  So of course, Cao Yang has to recruit planning, and he has to recruit a particularly strong master of Warcraft, and is good at adjusting the numerical balance of numerical planning.

  This is really difficult.

  On October 16, the semi-monthly magazine "New Era of Gaming" published the latest situation about Bomi.

   brings players first-hand consultation.

  As soon as this issue of the magazine came out, it was immediately sold out.

  Because the content of this issue of the magazine is really amazing:

  Bomi Company actually exposed a part of the original design drawings of the "Shan Hai Jing" under development very rarely.

  The news simply made the players happy.

  【Fuck! This is too awesome, right? ! 】

  【Bomi's "Shan Hai Jing" is simply going to heaven! If you don't say that these original paintings were made by Bomi, I can't believe that they were made by Chinese painters.

  But if you think about it carefully, foreigners simply can't make such a charming but internationalized "Shan Hai Jing" strange animal map. 】

  【Yes, what do foreigners know about the classics of mountains and seas? What do they know about Chinese culture? What is classical inheritance? 】

   [Hahaha, well said, this wave is definitely the light of the Chinese people, it's amazing, Bomi, the original painting alone has crushed all the domestic game companies. 】

  【More than crushing domestic game companies, I don't think other game companies in the world can paint such good original paintings with Chinese charm and such internationalization. 】

  [My Bomi is amazing, hurry up and publish "Shan Hai Jing", I will definitely buy it! 】

  【As long as Bomifa, I will buy 5 copies! No, 10 copies! If the Chinese people don't support such a good domestic game, do you count on those foreign people to support it? 】

  [Yes, yeah, these original paintings are really beautiful. Fortunately, I bought this issue of "New Era of Games", otherwise I will regret it for a lifetime. 】

  There are even many painters in the industry who bought this magazine specifically to read the original paintings of Shan Hai Jing.

  【Fuck, luckily I bought it early, otherwise I really regret it. 】

【what? ! Have you bought this issue of "The New Era of Gaming"? It's over, I feel like I'm losing! 】

   [Don't look at the first issue of the new era of the game sold very expensive, sold for 59 yuan, but I think it is really super worth, you really want to buy a copy to have a look, you can learn a lot of things.

  Look at this Bai Ze, this pen is amazing, there is no extra in every stroke, and the coloring is perfect.

  To make this game, it really has to be blown up. 】

  【What am I... I want to buy a copy too. The question is, can I buy it now? 】

  【Forget it, wait for Bomi to release the set of original paintings. Bomi will publish a set of original paintings, right? Huh? 】

   [Who knows... What if you can't get out of the house? Could it be possible to rush to Bomi holding a knife holder on Boss Cao's neck and let him come out of the set of original paintings? 】

  【It's over, I feel that I have to regret my death in my life. Once there was a beautiful "New Era of Game" in front of me. I regretted it until I lost it...

  If God can give me another chance.

  I must buy it——

  10,000 copies! 】

  【Hahaha, if you can't buy it, you can only join it. Maybe you have a chance to change to Bomi in the future and watch it. 】

  【If there really is such a day then, please be sure to help me get back a signed picture of Boss Cao. 】

  【I want it too, can I get in the key? 】

In addition to publishing several original paintings of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", there are pictures and truthful explanations of the Bomi company's "Scripture of Mountains and Seas" project, and the appetite and expectations of the players have been dampened. Revealed a mysterious message--

  【In the next few months, Bomi will launch a blockbuster game released globally.

  But what about this game?

  Bomi Company did not disclose, probably in order to maintain a sense of mystery, let the players look forward to it.

  So I don't know what it is.

   Readers may wish to use their imagination to make a bold guess.

  If you have any ideas, you are welcome to contribute.

  The following is the submission mailbox for the new era of games:

  Xxxx@xxxxx.net】

  As soon as this news was released, it caused a wave of waves.

  The inside of the player circle is almost exploded.

  A major earthquake also occurred in the industry.

  【Fuck, isn't it? ! Bomi actually has another blockbuster game to be released? ! And it's still on sale globally? ! 】

【impossible! The games that Bomi has announced before are already on sale, and the "Shan Hai Jing" that is still under development is impossible to be completed by the end of the year, right? 】

  [Everyone has said that it is not Shanhaijing, but another one. You people are not careful in reviewing the questions. 】

  【Fuck, what else can there be? ! Bomi will never open 4 king projects last year, right?

  Are they going to fill this year with the glory of the king in one go? 】

  【No way, I can't stand another King's Glory. I haven't gotten back from the prequel yet. 】

  【What else can there be? If it's not the king series? Is it Audition 2? 】

  [Or is it Three Kingdoms online2? 】

  [Who knows, no one has disclosed the news, and now I can only rely on guesses. 】

  【Ah, I see, have you noticed a keyword——

   Available worldwide.

  What kind of games can be released globally? 】

  【Fuck, yes, what kind of games can be released globally? In this global development, it is impossible to only have China and East Island, right? Do you remember a U.S. game company that Bomi bought before? 】

  【Yes, yes, what does it seem to be called Apex? Could it be that the company made the game? 】

  【It is also possible that the game made by EPIC is almost made by Bomi, right? 】

  [Not necessarily. Have you ever thought about another possibility. This year, Bomi not only acquired Epic, but also successfully obtained the copyright of Warcraft from Vivendi. Is it possible that it is Warcraft? 】

   [Fuck, your idea is too bold... I can only say that it is really good. 】

  After some fermentation promotion, players spontaneously conducted various discussions and speculations on this blockbuster game that Bomi is about to release.

   "Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne" has not yet been released, and various topics have been upset.

  Finally, after layers of analysis, everyone basically set their sights on overseas.

  If it is not a new game made by Epic, then it is most likely to be "Warcraft 3", but the player does not know what it is.

[I hope this time Bomi is posting Epic's new game. It's not that I don't believe Bomi, but it's really hard to believe that they can do it well. It's just the game. The balance is going to die. 】

  A senior game enthusiast said.

  People in the industry basically agree with this view.

   [Really, it is too difficult to adjust the balance of "Warcraft 3". This is not a question of whether Bomi can do it, but whether they have experience. 】

   [Seriously, the Blizzard team has started developing "Warcraft 3" a long time ago, but it has never been released.

  This time, Bomi picked up a big bargain. The problem is that this bargain is not so easy to pick up.

  I fully believe that Bomi's programmers have the ability to perform the game's functions well.

  But I deeply doubt whether Bomi's plan can be balanced.

  Assuming that when Blizzard handed over the game to Bomi, they had already adjusted the balance, and there was no problem in all aspects of the value, then Bomi would still be so reliable in selling Warcraft.

but--

  Do you think that when Blizzard delivered the game to Bomi, did they seriously adjust the value? 】

   [It's over, I feel like this analysis upstairs, if Bomi really wants to release "Warcraft 3", this game will be cool! 】

  【Blizzard is irreplaceable, I feel that without Blizzard, Bomi is nothing. 】

  Moving during the day today, there is no time code until night.

  There are only two chapters updated today, so sorry.

  Thank you for your rewards.

  The number of additional changes owed so far is 21 chapters (2k words per chapter), a total of 42,000 words, and it is expected to be completed within this week.

  There is no update today.

See you tomorrow.

  (End of this chapter)
