Almighty Game Designer

After obtaining the new version of the planning documents, Su Jianyu, Zheng Hongxi and Qian Yu started to get busy.

In fact, these RPG maps are not the most classic and not the most balanced, so why would Chen Jiao do these maps?

Because these maps, which represent the major branches of the later Warcraft RPG, are the prototype of the classic Warcraft RPG, allowing players to experience the fun of the Warcraft RPG without going too far at once, limiting their minds.

You know, a monster like DOTA was bred in Warcraft's RPG map, and Chen didn't want his own RPG map to give the designers some strange inspiration, lifting stones and smashing their feet.

Defensive Map: Guardian Athena.

The defensive map is very simple, but it contains the core elements of the Warcraft RPG: hero matching, hero cultivation. Over time, attacking monsters become stronger and stronger, and players are cleared to find the best match among many heroes and many objects.

Tower defense map: Tower defense.

In fact, this map comes from the classic tower defenses of previous generations, such as the circular circle. The core fun of tower defense is similar to a defensive map, the difference being that the player needs to choose a location to build the tower, and the core changes from a hero to a defensive tower.

Leisure Map: The Pyramid Escape.

This is what can be described as a leisure map, where players can choose from dozens of game modes to escape organs by walking away and winning.

Confrontation Map: Chenghai 3C.

In fact, Chenghai 3C is very primitive relative to DOTA, its biggest problem is unbalanced, but its biggest attraction is also unbalanced. Many players like to play the perverted version of Chenghai 3C because of its imbalance.

At the same time, because players can manipulate multiple heroes, some of this imbalance is slightly diluted, making it a very entertaining map.

Chan is only going to develop these four classic RPG maps, so let the players figure it out.

……

The development of the new version did not take too long and was basically completed in less than two weeks.

There are lots of maps in the Battle of Warcraft, all three of them have been handcrafted, are familiar with the world editor, making these RPG maps is not difficult at all, the main time is spent adjusting hero skills and setting levels.

Chen Qiao deliberately advised that the hero skills in the RPG map must be completely different from each other in the battle mode, to be both heroic and innovative.

These three people are basically bitter thinking meditation, but in the process, they also expanded their imagination a little bit, which is interesting.

Especially Qian Yu, who is basically responsible for the design of "Chenghai 3C", and overall reproduces the standards of previous life, Chen Qiao is quite satisfied.

Chen Jiao finally checked the completion of the three maps and said: "Okay, that's enough. ”

Su Jinyu: “Yes! Done!”

Zheng Hongxi: “But it doesn't seem very difficult. ”

Qian Qian said: "Dear store manager, I don't think this version update has much content. Although it seems fun, will the players be satisfied? I always feel like a few maps this time, which is worse than the content of the previous game. ”

"Don't worry," said Chan. Hiroshi, you can write a version update instruction and publish a new version. ”

Soon, the version update instructions were written, and Su Jianyu released the new version and update instructions simultaneously.

The update was modest, with only one CG updated, some infrastructure enriched and four new RPG maps added.

CG, mainly because of the long cycle of production, can only be partially updated. Remove the CG, these additions are less than 1M, only slightly acidic in terms of capacity.

Oh, it's supposed to be very cold.

Of course, new battles can be created if capacity is to be expanded. But the players' interest is now mainly focused on networking versus battle, and the call for new battles is not high, so Chen Qiao didn't do it either.

This version was updated, and Chen Qiao did not intend to charge a fee, including for subsequent mapping, nor did Chen Qiao intend to charge a fee.

Because there is very little updated game content, if it is charged in DLC form, it would be too much, definitely not.

Alternatively, you can take a map fee model, such as once the player makes a better RPG map, it costs 1-2 yuan for the other players to play the map, which is half divided between Chen and the original author.

Chen stranger thought about it and did not use this charging model.

The reason is simple, these maps definitely can't be charged from the beginning, otherwise the heat will definitely not get up, but the subsequent charges will be very crappy, the player will be strange, why do you start playing for free and charge more people?

So, the map fee is good for the producer, which can seriously frustrate players' motivation and contradict Chen's idea of making a Warcraft RPG map.

Chen did not make the Warcraft RPG map for the healthy development of the gaming industry, but only to further stimulate the sales of Warcraft Competition.

RPG maps are great for driving black among friends, Chen did it, mainly to spread the game from the RTS player group to the periphery, so that these people can pull in friends and colleagues, one more is one more sales.

Furthermore, RPG maps are designed to further extend the life of the Warcraft Game, slowly spreading and fermenting its influence and paving the way for PC games to be developed later.

……

After simple preparations, the new version of Warcraft Competition is officially updated!

The new version of the update was quite understated, except for a new version of the update note, none of which was available.

So many players logged into the game that they noticed that the game had been silently updated with a new version.

“Hey, you got a new version? This stranger works fast! ”

“Yeah, Warcraft is developing pretty well now, and there's no balancing issues, so why don't we release a new version so soon? ”

“Conscience! Wow, is this still the stranger I know, I'm going to cry! ”

“Yeah, why did my conscience suddenly find out? ”

“Come on, let's see what it is. ”

Soon, after viewing the specific updates, the players started shouting at Father Pit.

“Fuck, what do I see? One CG, some settings options updated, how many new maps??? ”

“Are you kidding me? ”

“Holy shit, is that a new version? Chan, are there any differences between the new versions of our understanding? ”

“Fine, confiscate the fee...”

“Holy shit, is this dog money still chargeable? Is there any more reason? Is there any law? Huh?”

“Updated the new CG, I looked at it and it was great! ”

“So is the new CG the only thing that helps with this update...”

“This, Thunder Recreation is going to transform the Thunder Film Studio? ”

“Are you a gaming company or a movie company?! ”
