59. I'm just a machine
Zhang Yawen nodded. She already knew how to write this report. Game supermarket. This concept will definitely cause a lot of response. This concept is too advanced.
"By the way, Mr. Cao, do you have any other game plans in addition to the game platform?" Zhang Yawen raised his hand and circled in the air, indicating, "You know that both of the King of Glory games in front of Bomi sold very well, and many players are also looking forward to the birth of the next sequel..."
"Well, we're already in progress."
Cao Yang put his hands on his chest and showed a charming and handsome smile. The photographer next to him quickly stuck a photo.
It's also interesting to say. When I published the July issue of "Game New Era", the sales of this magazine suddenly rose by 20 percentage points.
Later, the magazine investigated and found that a large number of high school girls actually bought it.
The reason for purchasing is that the cover looks good.
On the cover, the one that issue was not a game advertisement, but a photo of Mr. Cao.
Cao Yang is very satisfied with their business.
In this era, when traffic young people have not become the mainstream of advertising, they are the spokesperson himself.
In the future, there will be a man named Chen Ou who uses [I bring salt for myself] as a gimmick, and Cao Yang thinks he can do it too.
Not only can it attract a wave of powder, it can also save money.
Zhang Yawen's eyes lit up, "That is to say, there will be the appearance of Honor of Kings 2 in the future?"
"That's of course," Cao Yang said with a smile, "We have no reason to give up such a good IP. Honor of Kings 1 has such good sales results. Many players have expectations for us, so we cannot let down the players.
Now it is still the original team, and the producer Ai Mi Ai will be the main writer. I believe that I can definitely make a good work."
"That's really great."
Zhang Yawen quickly wrote it down in the notebook.
This is good news, for both magazines and players.
"When will the Honor of Kings 2 meet you?"
"Emm... This is hard to say, because this time we are planning to spend more time on production and invest more funds, so the development cycle will be longer."
In fact, the appearance of Honor of Kings 1 is entirely because my father has established a good foundation before and there are many ready-made products to use.
When it comes to Honor of Kings 2, many things have to be done again, so the production time will be longer.
The development cycle of half of the products is about half a year, and it takes longer to make large productions.
If you don’t think clearly about the development planning and start over again, it may lead to not being able to get there for two or three years.
"Yeah, look forward to it." Zhang Yawen laughed happily.
...
The two chatted a little more, the photographer took some photos of Cao Yang, and Zhang Yawen asked about the recent hot topic:
"By the way, Mr. Cao, do you know the popular Diablo 2 that has been very popular recently?"
"Huh?" Cao Yang nodded and nodded, "I know, I'm still having fun."
Not only do I play it now, Cao Yang also played this game in his previous life.
Diablo 2 can be said to be a treasure book for gamers. It is something that every game maker who enters the industry must understand. Cao Yang can be said to have played it for decades, and he still enjoys it in 21 years.
"Then what do you think?" Zhang Yawen stared at Cao Yang with interest.
The boss of Bomi Company, who has had two successful games, to some extent, also represents the domestic leading level. Zhang Yawen really wants to know what the value of the Diablo in the United States is in Cao Yang's mind.
"Milestone game." Cao Yang said bluntly, "Diablo 2 is not just his gameplay. Its complexity, especially the numerical formula, can be said to be a textbook for the entire game industry. In the future, the numerical architecture of many games will be expanded based on Diablo 2."
"How to say it?" Zhang Yawen didn't understand very well.
"Diablo has defined many attributes, mainly using multiplication formulas and fixed damage addition for design. For example, damage calculation is very complicated: (basic damage x1.5{only acting on invisible items}) (1+weapon ed value/100) + direct minimum/maximum damage added value) multiplied by (1+force or agility/100+ non-weapon ed value/100+skill ed value%/100)) + (1-skill damage penalty/100) x2{only when a critical strike or a fatal strike occurs}+elemental damage... After that, damage reduction must be based on the opponent's blocking and defense... These are the damage reduction, and the damage cannot be completely 0. At the same time, many attributes will not be particularly perverted no matter how they stack it.
The advantage of this numerical system is that all your attributes are useful, but there is a value difference based on the weight ratio, and the value of some attributes will be higher...
It can be said to be the originator of ARPG and also a model for future RPG games. As long as it involves combat, it is difficult to bypass the dark numerical system design.
To some extent, it's simply too beautiful."
Cao Yang gestured in the air with his hands. Although there were a bunch of numerical formulas in front of him, it seemed that this thing was more attractive than a woman.
Zhang Yawen was stunned when she heard this, and she had the illusion that her mind was exploding when she was taking math class in high school.
Cao Yang said it too professionally.
"If you want to say that there is any imperfection... it is probably because the creators did not expect that players would use bugs to block the boss, causing monsters to be beaten higher and their experience will be overflowing."
Cao Yang touched his chin and thought carefully, "So later, Blizzard added a level limit to the experience formula. Only in a certain level absolute value range can he obtain normal experience, otherwise it will decay according to the level difference.
This is a piecewise function.
It is manually filled in and corrected after data verification, so it is not that perfect in mathematical construction."
“…”
Zhang Yawen looked confused and felt lonely when she heard it.
"Okay, Mr. Cao, let's all for today's interview. Thank you for taking the precious time out of your busy schedule."
...
When he was taking the elevator downstairs, Zhang Yawen asked the photographer, "Can you understand what Mr. Cao said just now?"
"I..." The photographer looked at her with a confused look on his face, "I'm just a machine carrying, please ask me?"
