There is a Problem with This Online Game Planning Chapter 377

  Chapter 377 Work hard

   "Why are your faces so pale?"

  In the conference room.

  Lin Yao felt a little strange seeing the faces of the three responsible persons.

   "...no, nothing."

  The three leaders sitting at the conference table subconsciously straightened their backs.

  They looked at the thick stack of documents on the table again, and were in awe.

  What kind of game is this...

  So exaggerated.

  Lin Yao saw that they were unwilling to speak, so she didn't force them.

She pulled out a chair and sat down, then handed out the plan for the first game, and looked at one of the persons in charge: "Let me first talk about Breath of the Wild that Shao Qisheng is in charge of, it may take a while... The other two are willing to listen, of course." Yes, but if there is something, you can deal with it first, and I will notify you later."

  The other two persons in charge looked at each other, then looked at the large stack of documents, and immediately got up.

  It feels like it will take a long time...

   Let's deal with our own affairs first.

  They patted the person in charge named Shao Qisheng on the shoulder, turned and went out.

  After they left, Lin Yao looked at Shao Qisheng whose face had turned pale again for some reason, and spoke slowly...

  Next.

  All afternoon, Lin Yao stayed in the meeting room.

   This is not over yet.

the next day.

  Lin Yao came to the conference room again.

  Although there are only three games.

  But it is quite troublesome to explain the core fun of the three games and answer the questions of the people in charge.

  Although.

  What Lin Yao wants to say is basically mentioned in the planning book under the supplementary mechanism. Even if it is not, the people in charge can make the same work without messing up according to the planning book.

  But Lin Yao still feels that it is very important to explain to them the core selling points and fun of the game at the early stage of game development.

   This will not only allow them to avoid detours at the beginning, but also let the project team leader know clearly what kind of game they are going to make.

  In this way, Lin Yao doesn't have to put too much energy into staring one-on-one in the later stage.

   In addition, there is another very important point.

  Although the planning book under the supplementary mechanism is almost equivalent to teaching how to play a game, it is very convenient and can greatly speed up the production progress.

   After all, the most difficult planning stage of the game and how to achieve it have given specific solutions.

  But for the staff, it is a kind of stifling to some extent, and even makes them have a strong sense of frustration...

  So Lin Yao hoped that they would be clear about what kind of game they were making, and have a bottom line in their hearts.

   It would be even better if she could learn something from her previous works.

  Last time, Lin Yao was ready to open the Greenlight project to the studio.

  She kind of hoped that in the days to come, more staff members would be involved.

   Accumulate experience first.

   Then move forward slowly.

  In the end, like Chen Qiuwen, he proposed an interesting and feasible large-scale project.

   And this kind of planning, when Lin Yao is still there, relying on experience and system assistance, can help.

  Her ultimate wish is of course that everyone in Linmu Studio is like a dragon.

  Although she knows that the possibility of this wish coming true is not high...

  But it is also good to let everyone have the desire to improve and have a channel for improvement.

   So although I am quite tired.

  But Lin Yao is still willing to clarify the core selling points and fun of these games with the person in charge of the console game department.

   After half a day of hard work yesterday and half a day in the morning.

finally.

  Lin Yao met the last person in charge and talked about the last game.

   "Boss, are you saying that in this FPS game, killing the enemy is not the most important means of victory...?"

  The person in charge of the "Splatoon" project team is an old employee.

  His name is Dong Qiang. He participated in the production of "Breakout" at the beginning, and then transferred to BattleRoyale to participate in the development of the chicken eating game.

   During the summer special promotion, he also found time to participate in the development of "Plants vs. Zombies".

   The qualifications in Linmu Studio are considered very old.

   It can be said that they accompanied the rise of Linmu Studio and went through the ups and downs together.

   Such a person, if he has not seen the person himself, and outsiders hear his resume and think that he is not over 50 years old, he must be in his 30s or 40s, right?

   But the reality is that Dong Qiang is only 27 this year...

  This young man in his thirties.

   And talk about why he was able to join Linmu Studio.

   is also quite fantastic.

  At the beginning, he had just graduated, and just when Linmu Studio was recruiting, he directly submitted an article of nearly 20,000 words, analyzing Linmu Studio's "Fantasy OL" and the analysis report of the domestic game industry...

   No resume.

   On an analysis report.

   Then added a sentence after it.

  I want to join Linmu Studio.

   And Mandy Qing is also the axis.

  Such a long analysis report, unexpectedly finished reading it abruptly.

   Then I made a special call to ask about the ambiguous points in the other party's analysis report.

  After confirming that it was written by the other party, she told Lin Yao and recruited the other party in.

  After that, this Dong Qiang has been staying in Linmu Studio, shining brightly in various project teams...

  However, this Dong Qiang didn't submit his resume directly when he entered the job, and said that he would join the job after throwing an analysis report, which seemed crazy.

  In reality, he is not the kind of crazy person.

   Not only not crazy.

   Also very polite.

   Such as this meeting.

   Obviously it is a shooting game.

  Lin Yao blatantly said that killing the enemy is not the most important means of victory, which is really confusing.

  Especially, Dong Qiang also participated in the production of two ace shooting online games under Linmu Studio, "Breakout" and "BattleRoyale"...

  So when he heard Lin Yao's first words, he was stunned.

  But after he lost his mind for a short time, he didn't object. Instead, after confirming with Lin Yao that he was right, he humbly asked what to do with this FPS that doesn't regard killing the enemy as the most important means of victory.

   A face full of curiosity.

Seeing his appearance, Lin Yao also smiled, and quickly got to the point: "The reason why I say that is because this game weapon shoots paint instead of bullets, do you understand? And these paints The role of the first is dyeing, and the second is attack."

   "Paint!?"

  Dong Qiang's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard Lin Yao's words, and then he showed a thoughtful expression.

"Well, and the player is not like playing a character in an ordinary FPS, but has two forms! They are the human form and the squid form. There is nothing to say about the human form, that is, it can shoot, and the squid form can sneak on the ground. The area is the area with paint, including the wall. This is the first difference between this game and ordinary fps, the player has two forms, the human form is responsible for attacking, while the squid form is responsible for avoiding."

  Lin Yao continued: "And if the player is in the enemy's paint area, the movement speed will be greatly slowed down.

  So, on the one hand, players in the game need to spray paint to attack the opponent, and on the other hand, they need to continuously spray paint to wash the ground and create favorable channels. "

"And the core selling point of this game is leisure and fun, as well as a certain degree of strategy. For example, the PVP battle method of this game is called the ground-painting mode. The number of enemies doesn't matter."

Lin Yao picked up the setting diagram she drew and showed it to Dong Qiang: "The biggest advantage of this kind of gameplay is the low threshold. Casual players or players who don't like to kill the enemy will also be useful. For example, teammates can fight. Scrubbing can greatly increase the fun of casual players...

  In addition, if you are a domestic player, you should also know that the control method of the handle is not for players who have grown up since childhood. Playing shooting games is simply a disaster, and this game is a clear stream specially designed for consoles.

  Even if you can't aim at people, players can still have fun by spraying channels. This is the original design intention of this game. We can put aside the weak performance of the host, and instead of pursuing blockbuster FPS, we can find another way! "

"…I see."

  Dong Qiang showed a clear expression, and his eyes became brighter.

   And next.

  Lin Yao matched the illustrations and began to introduce the game mechanism and various subsystems to her in detail.

   And this is not difficult to understand.

  Because Lin Yao can find illustrations every time she speaks to improve the lack of words.

  Following Lin Yao's narration.

soon.

  A unique shooting game gradually took shape in Dong Qiang's mind...

   And as the concept becomes clearer.

  He also became more and more excited.

  This is a fun way to play for all ages...

  This is a cute and cool game style...

   So interesting.

   This game feels so fun!

   "Probably so."

  Lin Yao explained the core selling points of the game in detail. After briefly introducing the game mechanism, she stopped and looked at Dong Qiang: "How about it, do you understand?"

"…Understood."

  Dong Qiang nodded vigorously.

  Lin Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and finally got it done.

   "That's good, come on, you can always come to me if you have any questions."

   Half an hour later.

  Founder Building.

  Fourteenth floor.

  Dong Qiang returned to his place with a stack of documents in his arms.

  After the excitement about the new game being fun fades away.

  He was a little absent-minded, and sat back to his seat, still thinking about the game Lin Yao just mentioned.

  As a staff member who has been deeply involved in the production of two ace shooting games of Linmu Studio.

  The shooting game called "Splatoon" that Lin Yao just mentioned has undoubtedly subverted all his previous views and experiences on shooting games.

  Dong Qiang thought he knew enough about shooting games.

  While lamenting that the game proposed by Yu Linyao is interesting,

  One side can not help but have some self-doubt...

  Why can't I think of such an interesting game…

   "Sure enough, there is still a long way to go."

  Dong Qiang sighed, dispelling self-doubt, straightened his waist, and cheered up.

  Since it is still far away.

   Then learn slowly.

  For example, this "Splatoon" is completely different from ordinary shooting games.

   After making this game, it is estimated that I can learn a lot.

   While cheering himself up, Dong Qiang opened the plan book that was brought up in his arms and began to read it.

   Originally.

  He just intends to go through it casually first.

   But when he opened the planning book, he was shocked.

  This planning book is too...too detailed!

   And the more he looked back, the more frightened he became.

  In this planning book...even the shape and data of every weapon in the game are written!

   Such as submachine guns.

  There are not only introductions such as average performance, but also data, and even a page number at the bottom.

  Facing the page number, Dong Qiang turned out the illustration.

   It was found that it was the original painting of the submachine gun.

   Such a proposal.

  Don't say it's him.

   Probably a fool, as long as the people under him don't pull too much, they can make it according to the gourd.

  There is no difficulty at all.

  This is also...too exaggerated!

  Dong Qiang looked at the planning book on the table, thought of the young boss who had just explained to him, and opened his mouth slightly.

   After a while.

  He smiled wryly, and muttered to himself: "This is too outrageous, is the gap that big..."

but.

  Since there is such a detailed plan, why does the boss waste his time talking to himself about the core selling points and ideas of the game?

  Dong Qiang sighed outrageously, and then suddenly felt a little strange.

  He looked at the detailed plan and thought of Lin Yao's expression when he introduced the game to him in the meeting room just now.

   sighed again.

   soon understood.

  I guess... Lin Yao also knew that the planning document was too detailed and might hit the person in charge.

  So I specially told them the core selling points of the game, the specific ideas, and why I did this...

She hopes that the person in charge can have a general understanding of the game before reading the planning book, so that the frustration will not be so strong. Learn something in middle school...

  Dong Qiang thought of this, and suddenly Fu Ling came to the end of the planning book.

   Sure enough.

  Following this is the introduction of the core selling points of the game, the audience, and the fun of gameplay that Lin Yao just mentioned.

  Although it is not as detailed as the game-related content in front of the planning book.

   But it can be seen that Lin Yao really wants to let them know why the game does this...

   Instead of letting them think nothing of it, just do it...

"Depend on…"

  Dong Qiang was really moved when he saw the handwritten words on the last page of the proposal.

   Such a talented boss with unreasonable abilities, without any arrogance, even willing to take care of their emotions, and wants to make them improve...

   It's really... a rare thing.

  Linmu Studio is now very large, with employees coming and going.

  Every day, people come and go.

  But in such a casual environment.

  In the entire Linmu studio, the professionalism of the staff has not only not decreased, but has even increased...

   This is something that many of Lin Yao's colleagues can't figure out.

  Dong Qiang also wondered why there are more and more awesome people.

why.

   Now that he saw the last page of the plan, he vaguely understood it.

  It may be because Linmu Studio has a boss who is convincing in all aspects...

   "Work hard."

  Dong Qiang closed the planning book, took a deep breath, and then reopened the first page, ready to read it carefully.

   Anyway.

   We must first make this unique game tailored for the mainframe of Forest Studio!

  I still have a long way to go, so I can learn while doing.

  But don't let her down.

  Dong Qiang opened the planning book again and began to read it carefully.

Then.

   I don't know if it was inspired by Lin Yao's words.

   Still inspired by the special gameplay of the game "Splatoon".

  It may also be the heart of blessing.

   In short.

   Turn over and over.

  Dong Qiang suddenly had an idea—

   Speaking of exceptional FPS.

  The feeling of anti-terrorism is also very different from ordinary gun battles, isn't it... also tricky?

at the same time.

  In the conference room.

  Lin Yao didn't know that Dong Qiang came up with the idea of ​​making an anti-terrorism FPS game.

  Otherwise, I will be very surprised...

  After lying on the conference table for a while, she stretched herself, feeling relaxed.

   Now the preparatory stage is finally over.

   Next, the little giant ship of Linmu Studio will be producing games at full capacity.

   During this period, there will definitely be troubles.

   After all, hosts and PCs are two different things.

  The most important thing is that the mainframe of Linmu Studio is quite different from the mainframes on the market.

   But that's okay.

   Next, according to the specific situation, just solve them one by one.

  Lin Yao stood at the same spot, went through the game, and made sure that there was nothing she missed so far, so she turned and left the meeting room.

   "... So you are here?"

  As soon as Lin Yao went out, she bumped into Zhong Xiu head-on.

  When Zhong Xiu saw Lin Yao, he handed her a piece of information in his hand: "This is the discount range of our first-party games for the summer special promotion. You can see if it is feasible."

  Lin Yao took it and glanced at it.

   Except for the recently released "Witch".

  Other games are on it.

  The discount rate is directly proportional to the release time.

  The longer the release period, the greater the discount.

  The numbers above are all reasonable.

  Lin Yao didn't find any problem, and handed it back to Zhong Xiu: "That's it, it's good."

   "Well, then I'm going to launch an event."

"it is good."

   "In addition, I watched the games in the console game department, and they are really interesting."

"Ah That's good."

   "It's just a pity that I may not have the chance to do the next masterpiece for the time being."

   "What? Are you still a PC party?"

  Lin Yao looked at Zhong Xiu with emotion, and teased him.

   "No, I'm a graphics guy." Zhong Xiu said solemnly: "But our host's performance is too weak! Otherwise, I will definitely persuade you to make a masterpiece like "The Witch"!"

   "Breath of the Wild is not bad, it's also a masterpiece."

   "That's a cartoon style!"

   "Okay... There will be a chance for this in the future, just wait."

  Lin Yao didn't expect Zhong Xiu to be such a party member, so she couldn't help laughing.

   "Good! I'm looking forward to it!"

  Zhong Xiu usually would not dictate Lin Yao's strategy, so he left without entanglement.

  Lin Yao watched him leave and was about to return to her place.

  The phone rang again.

  She picked up the phone and looked...it was Zhang Jianghu's call.
