Game Making: The Latest Chapter Begins With Healing the Player

Chapter 287: The keyboard sucks

Views:

In the rest area of Nebula Games, Chen Xu, who had just walked out of the office, heard a group of people gathering over the big screen to discuss.

"They're all so awesome! This player named Guadi has never lost once! This beast race is so strong!"

"This seems to be a foreign player with a ranking score of 2710 points and is now ranked first."

"This player named Toilet Brother is also very good! He has only lost to Guadi, and his hand speed is simply exaggerated!"

"Yes! This third-line operation is simply a bit exaggerated. While using the Sword Master to harass, you can also do other things."

Qin Yi, Ruan Ningxue, Yang Xin, Lin Tao and others were all watching the big screen in the rest area.

What's on it is the Golden Month Tournament being held on Shark TV. It happens to be the third week now, and the last day of the points group stage is going on.

Chen Xu, who happened to be walking into the rest area, heard everyone's words and couldn't help showing a speechless expression: "Isn't this a normal operation for a high-end player? You should care about the tactics they use in the game."

Chen Xu no longer knew what to say to the four people in front of him whose cumulative ranking points totaled less than 2,000 points.

After all, you need to know that the default score for a new account is 500 points.

It is indeed more difficult for third-line operations.

But if you want to play professionally, double lane is a basic operation. If you can't practice this, then don't play professionally.

"Ahem...Mr. Chen, there are experts and there are rookies. Some people gain points and some lose points. So why can't I be the one who loses points?" Listening to Chen Xu's words, Qin Yi, who was sitting over there, coughed twice. said.

"You are the only one who makes a lot of lies." Chen Xu couldn't help but be speechless, and he was embarrassed.

"But Mr. Chen, in terms of racial balance, is the orc race too strong? I think many players already have opinions!"

"Yes! Players have protested in various ways on community forums. Many people feel that the orcs are too strong."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Chen, people on the Internet say that the Orcs are too strong, and that the Night Elves and Undead are too weak. Should we strengthen or weaken the Orcs and Humans?" Several people were talking about it. said.

"What's going on?" Chen Xu was stunned for a moment. He really didn't pay much attention to this aspect.

For "Warcraft", Chen Xu believed that complete balance was impossible to achieve.

For example, FPS will always have so-called police pictures and gangster pictures, and MOBA games in the previous life will always have strong heroes and sewer heroes.

Including RPG games, it is even more impossible to have the so-called balance, so there is a saying that one generation of versions is one generation of gods.

In "Warcraft", Chen Xu also tried his best to balance the values of different races.

At least at this stage, Chen Xu feels that "Warcraft" will not need to make major adjustments for at least a long time. At most, it will be some small corrections.

And in previous lives.

Night elves, orcs, humans, undead, all different races have players who have won championships in major competitions.

In the early days, there was Beastmaster Grubby's third-line fantasy operation that promoted the generally weak Orcs.

Sky, the first generation Tota of the human race, cracked and invented countless tactics, played the night elves to perfection, the moon demon, known as the fifth race, and the ghost king ted who later won the first undead championship.

Including playing the defense tower to the extreme or even surpassing it after Sky in the later stages of "Warcraft", Infi, which is known as the combination of man and tower, and 120 of the new generation of Ghost King.

Chen Xu didn't dare to say that his game was absolutely balanced, because no game designer dared to say that his game was absolutely balanced, including his previous life.

But in Chen Xu's opinion, "Warcraft" has obviously achieved a relative balance.

Are players now questioning balance

Chen Xu opened his official blog and game community forum.

At this moment, the game forum and his official blog are filled with many players leaving messages.

"The orcs are too strong!"

"The undead, night elves and humans fainted in the toilet crying. Half of the contestants in the Golden Moon Tournament are orcs!"

"Actually, I felt this way when I was playing ladder matching. The Orcs were too strong in the early stage. The big G (Orc minion) was so tough. One of them beat two of me!"

"Yes, yes, the orcs feel like they are really going to be weakened!"

"Chen Xu, please say something back!"

"Let's just call it Orcs for Hegemony!"

Chen Xu frowned slightly while looking at various messages on the Internet.

Orcs are too strong

You must know that the Orcs seem to be a very simple race, but in fact it is not a race suitable for novices. For example, the infantry, wolf cavalry, white bulls, and Kodos in the second version of the Orcs all need to be operated, otherwise they will often appear. The situation of mutual blocking.

After looking at some information on the Internet, Chen Xu basically figured it out.

The main reason is that current players do not understand "Warcraft".

For novices, the orcs are thick-skinned and thick-skinned. Let alone operations, everyone just builds minions and then chooses them all to go through.

In this case, many novices would find it difficult to resist the Orcs' initial bull-head halo and explosive G in the early stage.

For some experts who are good at playing and have figured out the basic gameplay, compared to other races, the orcs' play and mechanism are relatively rough, which in itself is in line with the positioning of the orcs.

This also leads to the fact that players of other races have not yet developed a corresponding strategy.

Coupled with some special elements, for example, Chen Xu watched the relevant game videos and found that the player named Guadi was really strong in operation. Although Chen Xu felt that the opponent was not very good at tactics, it was a matter of experience. But the opponent just relied on the operation to beat the opponent.

In this case, the first place on the ladder is all the Orcs. Then some players who want to increase the points naturally think that the Orcs may be stronger. More and more people play the Orcs, which in turn drives the tactics of the Orcs. evolution.

Naturally, there is a kind of crushing compared to other races, resulting in this seemingly unbalanced situation.

Of course, there are other factors, such as the help of the navy, otherwise this imbalance would not have been exposed like this.

But this made Chen Xu relieved.

"There is no need to change the values. The balance of the game is fine. It's just that I was a little negligent in this area." Chen Xu looked at everyone and shook his head.

"Control the current public opinion and don't let the enemy continue to cause trouble. In addition, when the time comes, let Lin Rou help me contact Shark TV and clarify it directly like before in "Monster Hunter: World."" Chen Xu said with a smile. . ? ? ? ? ?

Is it the same as Monster Hunter before

After hearing Chen Xu's words, everyone was stunned.

"Chen... Mr. Chen, how do you plan to prove it?" Qin Yi, who had some guesses, asked tentatively.

"How else can we prove it? As game designers, we use data to prove it. How can ordinary players understand it?"

"When the time comes, I will play each race again, and players will have an intuitive feeling," Chen Xu said matter-of-factly.

Listening to Chen Xu's words, everyone was dumbfounded.

The principle is this, but the question is what if you haven’t fought before

"Mr. Chen, do you mean we invite actors? Isn't that bad?" Ruan Ningxue thought of something and said sarcastically.

"Where are you thinking? What I mean is to discuss with Shark TV to see if we can hold an exhibition match and let me play against those professional players. Besides, if I lose, I lose. I am a game designer and not a professional player. " Chen Xu looked at everyone's eyes and couldn't help being speechless.

Seeing everyone's performance, Chen Xu smiled and turned to leave.

His purpose is not really to defeat professional players, but mainly to have a channel to prove that these current professional players and top-ranked players basically represent the top level of "Warcraft".

Using them to prove that there is no problem with balance in "Warcraft" is the most effective and direct way.

What's more, he has also watched the operations of these professional players. Some of them are indeed very abnormal, but in terms of tactical understanding of the game, these players are obviously not as good as him at this stage. After all, the various tactics of "Warcraft" in the previous life still have fighting skills. The law has undergone more than ten years of evolution.

In addition, Chen Xu's own ability is really not bad. In this case, except for Guadi and his like, Chen Xu feels that some ordinary "Warcraft" masters are really not sure if they want to defeat him through operation. be able to eat.

What's more, he also has a special prop.

It came in handy this time.

'Keyboard cheating card (limited to your own participation): After using it, you will make incredible actions in the game along with the prophecy of the commentator. After using it, it will bring a lot of positive attention to the game. (Sometimes milk coming out of the keyboard is not necessarily a bad thing)'

Looking at the props in his backpack, Chen Xu smiled slightly.
