Chapter 503: The Frozen Throne of Warcraft III
Although "Angry Birds Match" is absolutely original by Zhao Minmin, it cannot be recognized as an original game by the system.
Therefore, this game Zhuang Li is regarded as a training work for the original game department.
Of course, even though it is just a training game, he still attaches great importance to this game, because this game does have the potential to become popular all over the world. If nothing unexpected happens, it should not be a problem to bring him two to three billion praise points.
If you are more conservative, you can get over a billion praise points, which is no worse than a large game like League of Legends.
He is still far away from the 10 billion praise points required to upgrade the L4 reward pool. The successful development of this game is obviously crucial.
And this time it can be regarded as the first time that Ares Entertainment independently develops a game without relying on Zhuang Li's system.
Once the company's original game capabilities become stronger, it will not only help Zhuang Li save a lot of game generation costs, but also help him earn more praise points through the critical hit effect of praise points.
Under the personal management of Yin Xiaorui and Lin Sisi, and with Zhuang Li paying close attention, the new department developed in an orderly manner.
"Angry Birds Match" has also officially entered the production stage.
Manual production of a game is different from system generation. It takes a long time. Although the game is relatively simple overall, according to the analysis report submitted by Yin Xiaorui and Lin Sisi, it is estimated that it will take nearly a year to complete the production.
One year is nothing to the game industry. Many large-scale games take several years or even more than ten years to complete.
After the new department got on the right track, Zhuang Li focused on earning praise points.
With the global release of GTA5 and Dark Souls 3, his praise value finally exceeded 100 million again, just enough for a ten-game draw.
However, he did not plan to draw a lottery, but considered how to use the more than 100 million praise points to earn more praise points in a short period of time.
First collect enough 4.5 billion praise points to accelerate the perfect World of Warcraft. In this way, one year later, the Perfect World of Warcraft and Angry Birds Match Game are completed at the same time, and the upgrade reward requirements should be met in one fell swoop.
Earning 4.5 billion praise points in a short period of time is definitely not an easy task. God of War Entertainment developed dozens of classic games from previous generations in more than two years, and Zhuang Li only earned a few billion in total.
Praise value.
It can be seen that it is quite difficult for non-original games to earn a lot of praise points.
Currently, among all the games of Ares Entertainment, League of Legends provides the most praise points, accounting for almost half of the total revenue from praise points.
This game also has the largest number of players worldwide.
If you want to earn billions of praise points in a short period of time, you must find a popular game that is as popular as League of Legends.
And it doesn’t cost too much to generate.
This is very difficult.
Zhuang Li has reviewed all the popular games in his previous life, and there are really not many games that can compare with the popularity of League of Legends.
"League of Legends, League of Legends."
Zhuang Li held his chin and recalled it over and over again.
Suddenly his eyes lit up.
"Right!"
Zhuang Li remembered that before the emergence of League of Legends, the game that once led the e-sports circle was, to be precise, just a map in a game - DOTA!
It is not the later standalone game DOTA, but DOTA, a map in the Warcraft game.
Later, League of Legends, which became popular all over the world, was actually adapted from DOTA. The basic gameplay is completely adapted from DOTA, hometown, three routes, rivers, wild areas...
Even the big and small dragons in League of Legends are imitated from Roshan in DOTA.
It can be said that League of Legends has given DOTA a new skin and reduced the difficulty of operation. The main core of the game is basically the same.
Of course, Zhuang Li's goal is not just this DOTA map, but the game Warcraft.
The most classic version is Warcraft III The Frozen Throne.
The biggest advantage of this game is that a game can have thousands of different pictures, and each picture has a different gameplay.
Counting the Warcraft maps adapted by players themselves, the number of Warcraft maps is simply too numerous to count.
Making a World of Warcraft map is much easier than making a brand new game, and the praise value can be calculated repeatedly for each different map.
This is unmatched by other games.
Moreover, with the same background of Warcraft, Warcraft can also play a role in promoting the launch of Perfect World of Warcraft in the future, which can be said to serve multiple purposes.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Li immediately called the system.
"System, I would like to check how many praise points are needed to generate the Frozen Throne in Warcraft III."
"Generating the Frozen Throne in Warcraft III requires 1 million praise points and takes 1 day."
"So cheap?" Zhuang Li simply wondered if the system had corrected itself after having a life discussion with him last time, and had become a good person.
"The model of this game is rough, the framework is simple, and it is not a complicated game."
After hearing what the system said, Zhuang Li figured it out. To put it bluntly, Warcraft is an early game from Blizzard. It was released in 2003. Although it is a classic, with the technical conditions at the time, this game was obviously not difficult to make.
Very big.
It's just that the recently produced large-scale games can easily consume tens of millions or hundreds of millions of praise points, and Zhuang Li is a little numb.
Unexpectedly, spending 1 million praise points can produce a very classic game.
However, since the system rated the model of Warcraft as rough, Zhuang Li decided to beautify the game model and left it unchanged in other aspects.
Just a beautification model will cost an additional 10 million praise points, which is ten times the praise points required to generate this game! The generation time is also extended to three days.
It can be seen that the system is still the same as before, and it has not improved at all.
"Let's just say ten million." Zhuang Li decided to create this game.
"By the way, does it come with a map?"
"The generated game will come with three regular maps."
"Here I go, three regular maps are enough to make a living. What you play in Warcraft is various modified maps. In the past, if you downloaded any Warcraft, it would come with dozens or hundreds of maps. Some maps even came with exciting short movies. You
This is too stingy!"
"At least give me a few classic maps such as DOTA, Chenghai 3C, Guardian Sword Pavilion, Green Circle, and Cemetery of Gods."
"Sorry, if the host wants to get more game maps, he can use additional praise points to customize them."
"You're cruel!" Zhuang Li gritted his teeth.
Is Warcraft without a map still Warcraft?
"Tell me, how many praise points are you prepared to gain from a map?"
Zhuang Li was already prepared to be brutally stabbed.
