"The rookie team, this is trying to hone the rookies. It just so happens that this type of game is not complicated to make; and there is a little bit of heat itself that relies on the rpg map of "Warcraft", even if it fails, it will not cause anything. The impact of ip."

Hearing Zhang Yida's words, Ma Lei, who was seated in the first place, instantly understood.

There was a little smile on his face.

It's normal to hone your team's skills.

Even not only to hone the team's technology, but also to launch a new game to accumulate technology, which will be used as the application of the IP of the follow-up Ace series of games.

For example, an open world may use a variety of technologies, the feel of the vehicle, the feel of the action, or the scene in the game and the interaction of the NPC.

In order to accumulate technical experience in these areas, it is not very strange to make a series of games alone.

Although he is not a professional game maker, Ma Lei, as the CEO of NetDragon, still understands it.

This "League of Legends" should be just a game for Xingyun Games to train the new team. Don't worry too much, their main energy will still be on the next open world 3a masterpiece.

Just like NetDragon, Tenghua and other game companies also got news related to "League of Legends". After inquiring about the news that it was not developed by the main core team of Nebula Games, like NetDragon, they did not keep too much information. focus on.

…………

While the outside world was still curious about the news of Nebula's game and "League of Legends", the project room of "League of Legends" in Nebula's game, the transferred story team was a little confused after hearing Yang Chen's request.

"Create your own core world view for "dota" and "League of Legends"? Every hero must have its own story, and it must be a story that takes place in a world, and at the same time, it must have a close relationship with each other?"

Everyone was surprised, including Chen Chuan who was next to him.

Like the outside world, although it is said to be an independent game, there are many employees in Nebula Games who are familiar with the "League of Legends" project and feel that this should be a small-cost game for training newcomers to test the waters.

But now, listening to Mr. Yang, it seems that it is not that simple!

create a worldview,

There's also the main core story, including the biographical stories of each of the game's heroes, which is no small feat.

Facing everyone's puzzled eyes, Yang Chen smiled and did not explain too much.

In fact, in the world of dream memory, the world views of these two games were not well planned at the beginning.

Let’s not mention “League of Legends”, the developers got up early and were too poor to solve the development problems of the game itself, let alone create a world view for the game, that is, only through texts, comics, etc. , a little bit of filling.

And Dota is even simpler. At the beginning, as an rpg map of "Warcraft", it directly quoted some of the plots in "Warcraft", and after the V agency took over and developed "dota2", there was no big change. .

The main reason is that in the early stage of game development, there is not much prediction about the prospects of the two games, and the plot and worldview itself are not important to the influence of this type of game. I have never thought about the idea of ​​ip extension in this regard.

But since he has decided to make it an independent client, and he is aware of the influence of these two games, Yang Chen naturally won't let it go.

However, in terms of world view creation, there is also no need to be too hasty, and there is no need to synchronize with the game to continuously release content, and the combination can better activate the role of game popularity promotion.

This is the advantage of this type of game. The world view and the plot of the characters are only used as a complement, and will not cause any damage to the player's game experience.

For example, Warden Thresh and Holy Gun Ranger Lucian, even though there is a feud against their wives in the storyline, this does not prevent players from using Thresh and Lucian in the game to roam the bottom road of Summoner’s Canyon sweetly , and even Thresh often made Lucian step on the lantern in his hand that held his wife's soul.

If this kind of situation happened in other rpg games, it would definitely collapse and never collapse again.

But in a competitive game like "League of Legends", the problem is not very big.

The "League of Legends" project has already been established. According to Yang Chen's idea, a separate project will also be established for the follow-up Dota.

It looks like the same type, but in fact the core style is completely different. Yang Chen doesn't have to worry about the situation where his own product competes with his own product for users.

And there is another important point, that is, in terms of the art style of the game, the two games are also different.

"League of Legends" focuses on the semi-cartoon style, while "dota" belongs to the realistic art style.

After Yang Chen arranged the game's follow-up storyline and world view completion plan, Chen Chuan began to report on the development of the game.

"Mr. Yang, the deo version of the game has been completed, but only a few heroes have been made so far." Chen Chuan said to Yang Chen.

Under the leadership of Chen Chuan, Yang Chen came to a computer.

The map has basically been built, but because it is only used for internal testing, it is still very crude, and the decorative buildings have not been done, but the hero's actions have been done, but the sound effects have not been added, so I feel that there is something wrong with it. A little bit strange.

Yang Chen experienced it first hand, and there is not much change from the dream memory. The only difference is that the hero modeling in the game is much more refined than the dream memory.

But this kind of thing is what the beholder sees benevolent and the wise see wisdom. After all, this kind of competitive game, when the players really enter the game, the players will not pay too much attention to whether the modeling in the game is good or not.

"Is there any AI? Call up an AI and try a normal game." Yang Chen turned his head and said to Chen Chuan.

Looking at the screen in the game, Yang Chen sat down.

These things have already been done, Chen Chuan and the others heard Yang Chen's words, and immediately called up a computer AI for testing through the command in the background.

Ten minutes later, Yang Chen looked at himself in the game and nodded slightly.

In addition to the previous "Red Dead Redemption" and the earlier "Prototype", it has been a long time since I had such a fun experience when testing the game!

Even though it was a violent beating while grabbing the computer, it was still a violent beating!

"It's not bad, but please note that in the man-machine mode after the development is completed, they need to be equipped with skins." Yang Chen nodded and said.

From the point of view of the operation feel, there is no problem. Of course, some settings in the game, such as tips for beginners, have not been added yet, but Yang Chen didn't say anything.

After the testing of these things, there will still be a novice guide specially made, and there is no need for Yang Chen to specifically point out this aspect.

The only thing that Yang Chen needs to point out is the human-machine skin.

After all, as a free game, and it belongs to the kind of game where krypton gold does not affect the balance, Yang Chen feels that he still needs to find a way to promote players' consumption intentions.

And it doesn't have to be so utilitarian. On the other hand, the ai has skin, doesn't it make it look better?
