Qin Yi was a little confused looking at the several different documents in front of him.
Regarding the map editor in "Warcraft", Qin Yi and the others actually know a little bit about it.
Because during development, Chen Xu asked their development team to reserve a special port for adding a map editor later.
But what are these now
"Is it a map like a single-player campaign?" Qin Yi and others looked a little confused.
Apparently he had no idea what these maps meant.
"It's almost like a casual map. You can think of it as a large level in a single-player campaign." Chen Xu said with a smile.
As a map editor, how can we enable players to discover interesting points faster
The best way is for them to serve as official sources.
Among these maps, Chen Xu chose the ones that were more distinctive.
Mini-games, defensive maps, RPG breakthrough maps, and fun and casual maps are all quite distinctive.
At the same time, these maps are considered to be released in an official capacity, but in the early stage, a lot of interesting maps are still needed, so in the future, Chen Xu plans to release some classic maps from the previous life as an ordinary player.
And open the corresponding permissions so that other players can also make secondary modifications on these maps.
It can be regarded as a point that makes up for the lack of early maps.
"I have clearly stated the characteristics of these maps for you. The main core is also in the gameplay. You can control the numerical values yourself. In addition, there are also some art models that can be added to the map editor to create some scene maps. Replacement with the hero model." Chen Xu said while looking at several people.
Chen Xu didn't plan to make these maps in his previous life by himself. He just wanted to let everyone understand the central point of the gameplay.
As for the numerical content, there is no need.
Because these maps made by players are not that high in balance.
It will be difficult for a weak hero to pass alone, but it will be very easy for a strong hero to pass alone.
With Qin Yi's ability, they have no problem controlling the numerical values of these maps.
These maps are more about entertainment than numerical balance.
And it just happened to be a good opportunity to exercise the abilities of Qin Yi and the three of them.
"What about you, Mr. Chen?" Qin Yi asked subconsciously after touching his head.
"Me? I'll watch you do it." Chen Xu said confidently.
Everyone:? ? ?
… … … …
Of course, Chen Xu didn't really just watch Qin Yi and the others do it.
Occasionally, I will still give pointers.
Qin Yi and the others were basically involved in the entire production of the battles in "Warcraft" itself.
Chen Xu is not unfamiliar with the development of these map contents, and Chen Xu has also streamlined the map editor of "Warcraft" during this period of time.
Although it cannot be said to be a complete fool's version, it is not very difficult to get started, especially for Qin Yi and others. Once they are a little familiar with it, there will basically be no special problems.
The main time is spent on shaping the hero and adjusting the gameplay of the level.
Especially in these maps, the design of hero skills is completely different from those in normal battles.
But at the same time, it has to be slightly consistent with the hero's settings.
For example, in the map 'Guarding the Sword Pavilion', the background is the Three Kingdoms. You can't possibly design Lu Bu as a wet nurse, right
Fortunately, Chen Xu did not set any limits on the skill requirements, which often opened up their imaginations.
If the effect is too unbalanced and difficult to limit numerically, then just make it a boss for players to fight.
After all, as a boss, isn’t it reasonable for him to have slightly stronger skills
In the next few days, Chen Xu was quite relaxed.
It was a long break for a few days.
At the same time, Lin Rou also reported to Chen Xu about the activities held by Shark TV.
Some relevant regulations have basically been negotiated.
And it’s not just Shark TV, but also some other domestic live broadcast platforms. This time they directly and jointly held it
As for the name of the competition, it is called: Golden Monthly Competition.
It is held once a month, and the prize money is provided by several major platforms such as Shark TV, as well as some equipment sponsors, etc.
It is divided into 4v4 team competition and single player competition.
Of course, the 4v4 team competition does not refer to a group battle, but to an arena battle.
Each team sends 4 players, and each player has a bo3 mechanism.
In the team competition, the first prize is 150,000, the runner-up is 100,000, the third runner-up is 40,000... The rest will be reduced according to the ranking, but the teams that enter the knockout round will all have bonuses.
Of course, if you finish at the bottom, the prize will only be a three-digit consolation prize.
As for the singles competition, there are four weeks in total, the first week of auditions, the second and third weeks of points competition, and then directly eliminated and included in the winner's group and the loser's group according to the points.
The group stage is Bo2, with 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, and 0 points for a loss.
The knockout rounds are bo5, and the semifinals and finals are bo7.
50,000 for the champion, 30,000 for the runner-up and 10,000 for the third place.
The first monthly competition adopts an audition system.
As for the future, the same model of invitation and audition will be adopted.
Any player with a ladder score of 2,000 or more in "Warcraft" can register.
At the same time, the Shark TV platform also applied for a dedicated server from Nebula Games.
At present, the candidates for the first monthly competition here have basically been selected.
However, regardless of whether it is a team competition or an individual competition, the participants are all clubs that have just established "Warcraft" branches.
This is not very surprising. After all, there is still a big gap between ordinary players and high-level players compared to players who regard it as their profession.
After all, entertainment is a hobby for most players, but for players it is a profession.
The participating players are basically all old faces from other RTS games in the RTS world who have transitioned to "Warcraft".
Chen Xu even saw some foreign players among them.
"Are there any foreign players? Are they going to play despite the delay?" Chen Xu was a little surprised.
Although the network technology in the parallel world is much better than that in the previous world, there is still physical delay in civilian networks across the Pacific Ocean.
"Although he is a foreign player, the club he joined is still domestic, and Target Software also said that there are some foreign organizers who want to obtain the authorization for the "Warcraft" event to hold some competitions." Lin Rou said to Chen Xu said.
He nodded and said nothing, but Chen Xu felt a little emotional. The parallel world of e-sports was much more professional than in his previous life.
Originally, he thought that the activities held by platforms such as Shark TV were almost the same as Internet cafe competitions, but in fact it was really not the case.
Commentary, as well as cut-screen perspectives, including specially created game tools.
For example, players watching the live broadcast can click on the plug-ins on the screen in real time to learn about the attributes of the arms and units in the game, instead of having to cut to where the director cuts to see them.
There is also a dedicated analyst. It can be said that these introductions are extremely relevant. For this reason, Chen Xu also found some famous events in RTS games in previous years.
Although those RTS games are basically not very popular nowadays, and Chen Xu has never played them.
But just by listening, you can understand a general idea.
Rather than being confused.
In this regard, Chen Xu also had to admit that the parallel world was indeed much more professional in holding competitive competitions.
Chen Xu feels that the RTS scope of the parallel world has been maintained so well, and it has something to do with the mature e-sports competition system.
