Chapter 274 Are you making CG animations or making games? (7 monthly tickets)(1/2)

Chen Xu was not affected in any way about the outside world because he basically would not pay attention to these doubts. He would only know whether the game was good or not.

"Warcraft" is still produced step by step, and Zhang Yida also began to promote and warm up.

After all, after Chen Xu made a trial date for an official blog post, players and the game circle were actively discussing "Warcraft".

But there is no more exciting news. Chen Xu's own official blog was handed over to his assistant Lin Rou for management during this period, and Lin Rou is currently in charge of the official blog of Xingyun Games.

Every day, these two official blog accounts are like squeezing toothpaste, and they put a concept original picture on time and on time every day.

Dwarves, humans, night elves, undead races, races familiar to players in Western fantasy themes were released by Chen Xu.

Similarly, players' expectations are increasing.

Overseas, the target software has also begun to slowly promote and warm up as before.

After "Dark Souls" and "Monster Hunter: World", Overseas Nebula Games actually have many loyal fans.

Most of these overseas players expressed their expectations for "Warcraft".

If you really want to say something that makes players dissatisfied, they have no idea about the development progress of the game "Warcraft" and what the situation is.

And it's nearly two months away from the trial date!

How can I endure these days?

……………………

Online, players live like a year.

The project room of Nebula Games is very lively.

"Damn! Mr. Chen, you are too strong! You are strongly requested that you can only have 50% of your health!"

"Yes, and you won't recruit heroes!"

"Not to be promoted to the second-tier technology!"

“The population cannot exceed 60!”

"Other four of us got a team!"

In the office, Qin Yi, Ruan Ningxue, Lin Tao and Yang Xin said one by one, and Chen Xu, who was sitting in front of the computer, was speechless.

"You might as well tell me not to build a building." Chen Xu said angrily.

So far, the overall battle framework for "Warcraft" has basically been completed.

What's left is that the content of the battle plot has not been completed yet, and some races need to be tested.

As for the current testers, they are naturally themselves.

Although the four people in front of them were having a good time, they were actually RTS rookies in Chen Xu's eyes. Moreover, "Warcraft" seems simple compared to other RTS on the market, but in fact, it is much more complicated to be proficient.

Chen Xu himself has a good understanding of the content of the game. He has played it for many years in his previous life. In addition, Chen Xu's reaction is quite fast. He may not be able to compare with some professional players standing in the pyramid, but he can still beat the four rookies in front of him.

After chatting with a few people about the game, Chen Xu looked at Ruan Ningxue and Yang Xin next to him.

The two of them obviously pay more attention to the plot, although the plot has also been through their hands.

But the two of them were still excited to experience the plot together.

Qin Yi and Lin Tao on the other side formed a team to play 4 crazy computers.

Of course, the situation of ‘greedidisgood     99999’ is turned on.

Regarding the current balance of "Warcraft", Chen Xu cannot say that he is completely balanced.

Because this is impossible.

But at least for now, Chen Xu is already in a position to compete.

During Chen Xu's actual test and the implantation of various tactics and styles of play in AI, multiple tests were conducted with 100 times as a round.

Currently, the winning rates of the four races are basically the same, with the highest difference of only 3%.

This is already perfect.

After all, there are too many variables in "Warcraft".

Different tactics of each race have ways to crack and respond.

On the stage of the Warcraft event, all players from the four major races have won the championship.

At least at this stage, Chen Xu feels that there is no need to make numerical balance changes.

Of course, for an RTS game, subsequent changes are inevitable.

Because for the game "Warcraft", every slight adjustment represents the earth-shaking changes in the entire game's tactics.

For example, the early Beast Clan routinely started with the Sword Saint, but after many years of major version changes, the experience given by the Prophet's Ghost Wolf was reduced after the death of the Prophet.

The status of the prophet has greatly improved, and there are also Xiaoqiang of the Undead tribe.

Of course, there was also a period of balance and weakness in "Warcraft", that is, the early night elves were very strong, but many people did not realize it.

Until Moon almost dominated the night elves race with his understanding of the night elves, winning the championship with a record of 13 consecutive victories and unsuccessful defeat, allowing players to see the power of the night elves.

Then? The night elves were cut by n knives.

For example, the construction time of the Night Elf's Tree of Life is extended by 10 seconds, the attack power of the building's armor and the big tree are reduced, etc.

The same enjoyed this kind of treatment was also because of the human race of Th000 and Tota Li Tianwang Sky, which turned the defense tower from its original brick to tender tofu.

However, this numerical weakening and the enhancement of other races have promoted more new tactics and styles of play.

……………………

There is still some distance before the game is open to players to try and experience.

Although the overall framework of the game has been completed, only the battle plot is not perfect.

In terms of screen performance, operation experience, and CG performance, the current "Warcraft" is definitely beyond the previous life.

But there is no other work at all.

Chen Xu is not in a hurry to go online in the map editor.

Instead, we are preparing to let players feel the content of "Warcraft" itself before launching it.

At the same time, this "magic weapon" can be better polished during this period.

The main task left is to set up the battle system for Warcraft.

The first is the matching mechanism, mainly based on rank scores.

The initial score of the player is 500, and the corresponding match is made based on the score ranking and the winning rate.

In addition, there are also video and in-game watching systems. For example, ordinary players can watch real-time high-segment players in the viewing interface. Of course, in order to prevent the screen from watching the mines and starting heroes, there will be a 3-minute delay.

These are all for players to better observe experts, learn other people's experiences and tactics, and further promote the overall level of players in the game.

There are also more complete achievement systems and friends systems.

……………………

In mid-October, during this period, the news about Warcraft was a bit of toothpaste, which made players grit their teeth with hatred.

After all, it was just forgot to squeeze toothpaste and draw big cakes in the past. At least there was a promotional video to let them know how fragrant the cakes were.

Now the trailer is gone?

Almost every day, players strongly demand to release more information and content under Chen Xu's official blog.

Of course this is also a venting channel.

But what surprised many players was that Chen Xu actually responded on this day and even drew a super big cake for them.

A promotional video they've always wanted.

After discovering it, many players couldn't wait to open this short video that was only one minute or more at the first time.

I want to see the style of the game "Warcraft".

After clicking on the video, a burst of passionate bgm echoed in the headphones, like a war drum.

Then the logo of Nebula Game flashed through the black cutscene, and a line of subtitles appeared (the following video is game cg).

After that, the sound of the war drums gradually weakened, and a whistling wind replaced the war drums. The first thing that appeared on the screen was a broken flag.

‘We never paid attention to ancient languages.’

As the narrator fell, a human soldier was fighting fiercely with an beast soldier on the dark clouds on the prairie.

The sword and the axe intersect, the fire burst out, and the clanging sounds were endless.

‘Silly obsessed with old hatred’

The victory or defeat is hard to tell. Human soldiers are well-equipped in armor, swords and shields, but the orc warriors are born with divine power.

‘Fighting for generations’

On the prairie, human soldiers confronted the beast soldiers, and suddenly there was lightning and thunder.

A meteorite burning with green smoke and fire passed through the air, attracting the attention of both of them.
