Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

In major companies such as Tenghua Games, Yilong Games, and Interactive Entertainment, many game designers are studying the core of the"League of Legends" game.

Most game designers feel confused about this new type of game.

Because there is no other data to refer to.

And to be honest, the current momentum of"League of Legends" is extremely fierce, which is actually related to Chen Xu's large-scale promotion.

No one knows whether it can be stable in the future.

But similarly, at this stage, Chen Xu has already shown this kind of aggressive posture, and he also values ​​"League of Legends". Coupled with the size of Fengyun Games now, they cannot remain indifferent.

Inside Tenghua Games.

Three game designers, You Zifang, Lu Xiao and Zhang Qian, were all discussing.

On the computer in front of everyone is a screen after the settlement of"League of Legends".

Since the launch of"League of Legends", several of them have been playing the game in black mode.

"After an in-depth understanding, the game"League of Legends" has simplified many operations compared to RTS. First, you only need to control one hero unit, and secondly, there is a very complete novice guide in the game."Lu Xiao was the first to speak.

"Yes, you can see that Chen Xu's positioning of"League of Legends" is very clear, that is, lightweight casual players, including the introduction of the map editor in"Warcraft", which led to the emergence of RPG maps to take care of more lightweight players."Zhang Qian also added

"The same is true for"Minecraft". The current designs of"League of Legends" can be said to take care of lightweight players, and there are even one-click matching talents and recommended equipment settings."Lu Xiao also nodded.

"So our next project should probably move towards simplification. What do you think, Zifang?"Zhang Qian turned to look at You Zifang, who had been frowning next to him, and asked.

After all, they are now a team, and although You Zifang is a young man, the two of them also know that the other party is really capable.

"Indeed, many of the current changes in"League of Legends" have lowered the threshold for getting started."Although You Zifang feels that something is wrong, he can't say it.

Because this is indeed an idea of ​​​​the design of"League of Legends", including all content.

"However, simple simplification is actually not advisable for a game."Lu Xiao said

"That's right, so compared to the simple RTS individual abilities of"Warcraft","League of Legends" also emphasizes teamwork. The jungle, mid laner, top laner, and support positions each perform their own duties."You Zifang interrupted at this time.

"So why can we simplify the operation better? For example, some players find it difficult to last a blow, then we simply cancel the setting of laning and equipment, and let the game directly enter a team battle module?"

"There is also the map mechanism. More new maps will be launched to allow players to have richer content. Just like the dragon in"League of Legends", players need to compete for the map mechanism to encourage players to play in groups and at the same time emphasize the importance of the game. A teamwork."

Zhang Qian and Lu Xiao were talking to each other, working on a design idea for a new project.

During this period, You Zifang also interjected a few words, but for some reason, You Zifang always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.

Because the design idea is very clear, and"League of Legends" seems to be following this path.

One of the hero settings of the game itself is the mode in"Warcraft", with four skills and six item columns.

But the RTS setting was canceled and it became a simple training of heroes to fight.

These are simplified operations, and the momentum of"League of Legends" is also very strong.

Why can't it continue to be simplified on the basis of"League of Legends"?

………………

May 25th, the second week of the launch of"League of Legends".

The gaming industry and the player community also experienced some shocks.

First, Chen Xu announced on the official blog that"League of Legends" is about to receive a new version update.

On June 1st, Children’s Day activities will be launched, in addition to corresponding skins.

There will also be a series of activities.

The first step is to log in to the game on June 1st and complete a game, including human-machine matching.

You can get a skin randomly.

At the same time, players complete certain tasks after opening the black hole.

For example, how many creeps have been killed in total, or how much economy has been obtained, and how many eyes have been inserted.

After completing the task, you will receive certain tokens.

As for tokens, you can exchange them for gold coins, skins, and treasure chests.

Of course, as for the treasure chest, it all depends on the appearance of what is opened.

The tokens for the entire event have been planned.

The tokens obtained by completing the mission can be exchanged by players for a skin and a treasure chest.

This activity has basically been prepared.

Including future National Day, Mid-Autumn Festival, Valentine's Day, etc., there will be similar activities in order to continue to accumulate players and users of"League of Legends".

And these benefits are actually nothing compared to the entire mall limit of"League of Legends".

At the same time, skin is not a thing that will be eliminated in the future.

In addition to the activities, the content of the game version will usher in 5 mysterious heroes.

As for what kind of hero he is, Chen Xu did not reveal it on his official blog.

These are the news that players of League of Legends are paying attention to.

The other one is what other players and designers in the game industry are concerned about.

Tenghua's official blog announced the news that its new MOBA game"Hero Battlefield" will be tested on June 20 without deleting files.

Immediately afterwards, Yilong also announced a news, but it was different from Tenghua's direct application of the MOBA launched by Chen Xu.

Yilong, on its part, stated that its new ARTS game"League of Gods" will also be open for testing at the end of June and will also support VR platforms.

The revelation of these two pieces of news also caused shock in the gaming circle.

Tenghua and Yilong, two domestic giants, have officially declared war on League of Legends and Fengyun Games.
