God-level Game Designers Start From Scaring the Crying Anchor

Monday, April 3rd.

"Overwatch" has entered the final testing phase, and according to the original plan, the server will be able to open this month.

However, although the entire studio was hurrying and rushing, and some people volunteered to stay and work overtime, it was Xiao Meng's "Future Contract" that came out first.

There is no way, after all, Emperor Penguin Games is a big business, and the number of people making games is several times that of Xun Ze. This made Xun Ze decide to expand the studio after the "Overwatch" server is launched. .

The timing of the launch of "Future Contract" was well chosen. It was the time when Xun Ze and Fong Xue and Tianpeng Game Company fought each other, and the players of "Titan" national server were lost.

Many players were disgusted by Frozen Snow's showy operation and chose to withdraw from "Titan", but could not find a suitable replacement, so they were all waiting for Xun Ze's "Overwatch".

The launch of "Future Contract" also gave them a good choice. After all, the main designer is Xiao Meng, and the prestige of a five-star game designer has a strong appeal in itself.

By the way, "Future Contract" is not a free game, but it is not as expensive as "Titan", and there is no difference between the regular version and the deluxe version. A copy costs 98 yuan.

Since Emperor Penguin also has a big killer called Kou Kou, if you promote it on Kou Kou a little, or pop up the window, almost all players in the Kingdom of God will know that "Future Contract" is online.

What's more, in addition to the button, the Emperor Penguin game has other promotion channels and resources, and the overwhelming publicity has also brought huge popularity to "Future Contract".

Just on the first day of release, "Future Contract" sold millions of copies, and the momentum has not weakened at all. According to the estimates of Emperor Penguin Games, the sales of "Future Contract" are at least 20 million copies.

In the past, this achievement was enough for Emperor Penguin to open champagne to celebrate, but this time they were not too excited, because they were all guarding "Overwatch"!

One CG can blow up the entire Blue Star. When the game is officially launched, I don’t know how many players will flock to Overwatch. If they celebrate too early and the results are not as good as Overwatch, wouldn’t they be beaten? Face.

After suffering several losses in Xun Ze's hands, the Emperor Penguin has also learned the game shrewdly. Until the last moment, they will definitely not throw a face to Xun Ze.

I haven't seen even the frozen snow, and the "Titan" of the best game of the year by Water Blue Star. Because of Xun Ze, has the development trend in Shending become a bit confusing?

in the office,

Xun Ze was spying on intelligence, that is, playing Xiao Meng's "Future Contract".

I have to say that it is worthy of being a five-star game designer. The completion of the game is quite high, and the rhythm is faster and more exciting, so that the player's excitement is always above the average level.

Each map has distinctive features, giving current players a sense of freshness every time they enter the map.

A large number of firearms, grenades, etc., make players dazzled and don't know what to choose.

However, after trying all the firearms, Xun Ze deduced that when the players are familiar with "Future Contract", the firearms they choose will only be fixed at five or six at most, and other firearms are estimated to be only when they are alive. , it is possible to be taken out.

But this is also something that can't be helped. Although Xiao Meng has balanced all the firearms and designed the character's exclusive skills, there are still some firearms that stand out, or are more in line with the usage habits and feel of most players. Wait.

What's more, don't forget, "Future Contract" is an emperor penguin game. Although most of the firearms in it are free, as long as you have enough game currency, you can buy them for fun, but you can only get them with krypton gold. of firearms.

For example, there is currently a special firearm in the mall, called "Death Flame Black Dragon", which is a flamethrower in the shape of a black dragon. When firing, the black dragon will spit out blue flames, which looks very cool.

And in some terrains, flames can penetrate walls and cause damage to opponents.

The price of this gun is 88 yuan, which is about to catch up with the price of the game, but because the shape and shooting are very cool, many players still pay for it.

Xun Ze only played two rounds, and saw that three people took out the Black Dragon of Death Flame at the beginning of the game. It can be seen that with the money from selling guns, the Emperor Penguin game made a lot of money.

Moreover, Xun Ze also found that there is still a gun in the mall, but now there is only a silhouette, and it is also labeled "stay tuned". It is estimated that there will be more and more paid guns in "Future Contract".

In addition, there are character skins, gun skins, etc., and the words "Drain the player's wallet" are everywhere in the mall.

After winning another game, Xun Ze closed the game. In terms of gameplay, "Future Contract" is still very characteristic and attractive. The only problem is that with the increase of paid firearms, how can the balance of the game be achieved? Assure.

But thinking of Xiao Meng watching this game, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Besides, this is a competitor's game, and Xun Ze doesn't need to spend his brain cells thinking about these things, he just needs to make sure that there is no problem with "Overwatch".

dong dong dong-

There was a knock on the door of the office, and Xun Ze said casually, "Please come in."

It was Liu Yide who walked in. He said straight to the point: "Mr. Xun, Dong Xue... It should be said that someone from the "Titan" project team has resigned."

"Oh! Who left? Don't tell me it's Lan Fujie." Xun Ze asked with interest.

"It's the person in charge of the numerical balance in the project team, as well as his two capable leaders."

"Sit down and talk in detail." Xun Ze said.

"OK."

After Liu Yide sat down, Xun Ze began to make tea. Such an interesting thing must be accompanied by something to listen to.

"Mr. Xun, the information I have inquired is that Fong Xue made balance changes to some mechas in "Titan" because of targeting you, but in fact they were all weakened, and this decision was made by Fong Xue executives. Lan Fujie could only obey the orders.

However, the people in charge of the balance are very dissatisfied. They feel that the balance of the mecha is not a problem at present. It is an act of overdrawing the vitality of the game to make drastic changes just because of your reasons.

However, their opposition did not make the top management of Frozen Xue change their minds. In the end, the relationship between the two sides became more and more stalemate, and finally the person in charge of the numerical balance left with two capable officers.

I also found out that after leaving the company, the person in charge set up a studio by himself. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is now recruiting and preparing to make his own games! "

Hearing this, Xun Ze's tea was ready. After he handed Liu Yide a cup of tea, he took a sip from the cup and said with a smile, "It's a pity that they started a new stove, otherwise they could have dug over."

After taking a sip of tea to moisten his throat, Liu Yide said: "Mr. Xun, in fact, many foreign game giants, as well as Emperor Penguin Games, Tianpeng Games, etc., have tried to dig him up, and the conditions were very generous, but unfortunately they were all rejected. , I guess that person is not willing to rely on others, so he opened his own studio! If you are really interested in him, I can try to get in touch with him."

"It's okay. I just feel it, the twisted melon is not sweet, and in terms of numerical balance, it is not that he is the only one who is the boss, far from it, I think learning books is not weaker than him. "

"I heard from Xueshu that he is far worse than you." Liu Yide said with a smile.

Xun Ze smiled and said: "Overwatch will be available this month. I plan to release another CG, you can arrange it."

"Okay, Mr. Xun."
