There is a Problem with This Online Game Planning

  Chapter 134 decision

  For things like FPS competitions, online is okay, but what games to watch offline.

   If it is a battle royale type.

  The offline competition is of little significance.

Lin Yao personally thinks that this type of game is not very suitable for competitions, especially the competition system that emphasizes rankings. It directly changes the nature of the game, and only escapes but not kills. That unlucky guy left alone to kill a wave and continue to build a nest.

  The reason for this is the level. After all, everyone is very high level. The players are under pressure and dare not show off like a match.

  Hmm... In fact, any game will change its taste to a certain extent when it reaches a mature professional arena.

   But the battle royale is the most outrageous. Unless someone lands at the jumping place in the early stage, no one will fight at all, but the fight can't stop in the later stage, because the circle will shrink and there are only so many points.

   And the bottom team has almost no chance of a comeback.

  The visibility is really not high.

  If it was a battle royale game, Lin Yao categorically rejected Zhang Jianghu just now, because she was sure that the final offline effect and atmosphere would not be too good.

   But now the game is not a battle royale type.

  The blasting mode is not like Battle Royale, this game emphasizes the frontal bayonet fighting.

  Whether it’s the economic system, whether it’s just a shot or a detonation or dismantling C4, or the choice of only one person left in the final team, it’s all interesting.

  After the baptism of the qualifiers.

   It is estimated that many players will be interested in watching games offline.

  But now it is changed to an offline competition, the competition system will change, and it is really troublesome to take into account factors such as the scene.

  Even with the help of Reflecta, the opening warm-up, match referee, on-site commentary, etc. all need to be decided by Linmu Studio. It can’t really let Reflecta, a graphics card seller, do these things, right?

  Oh, it seems that Lin Yao sold processors in her previous life and also engaged in competitions...

  But if it is an offline competition, Lin Yao still hopes that Linmu Studio can take the lead. In the future, even if "Breakout" has a level of competition like the Major, he also hopes that his studio can accumulate a certain amount of competition experience.

   "...Miss Mu, let some key personnel and Nie Hui go to the conference room for a meeting."

  Lin Yao thought about it, and finally made up her mind, and said to Mu Wanqing.

  As for Nie Hui in her mouth, she is the event leader of the Breakout Challenge.

"it is good."

  Mu Wanqing knew what Lin Yao was going to discuss next, nodded her head, and immediately went to find someone.

  Lin Yao sat down, took out an A4 paper, and began to think about what the studio should do if this challenge was changed to an offline competition.

  About a few minutes later.

  Mu Wanqing is back.

  Lin Yao and her went to the meeting room together.

  …

   "That's exactly what happened."

  Lin Yao told Zhang Jianghu's expectations and the phone call from the Propaganda Department to the key people in the studio.

"...If it is changed to an offline competition, the time is a bit too tight. It is the beginning of January. We originally planned to hold the final at the end of the month. If we are going to prepare for the offline competition now, it will only take a full month, because the Chinese New Year is coming soon. .”

  Nie Hui is a very young-looking man, who looks a little older than Mu Wanqing, gentle, with a bookish air.

  Lin Yao had a few chats with him, but Mu Wanqing was the main interviewer at the beginning.

  She also believes in Mu Wanqing, so she still believes in this person.

  Hearing his words, Lin Yao looked over.

  Facing Lin Yao's gaze, Nie Hui's expression remained unchanged, and he continued: "Then considering the time it takes for overseas players to come over and the time it takes for the offline competition to warm up, I'm really nervous."

"really."

  Zhong Xiu frowned slightly, nodded, and agreed.

"but."

Nie Hui changed the subject: "It would be a good thing if we can hold an offline competition this time. The popularity of "Breakout" and the challenge competition are very high. If this competition can be held well, and domestic teams have overseas If we win the championship without the players, it will have a huge impact on the game.”

   "Why don't you get it..." Zhong Xiu asked.

"E-sports, if you lose, your skills are inferior to others. In fact, there is nothing to say." Nie Hui organized the wording, and said: "Besides, "Breakout" has been in operation for the longest time in China. How long has it been since the small-scale test overseas? If this If you still lose, then you can only come back next time... In addition, winning overseas is not necessarily a bad thing for our operators, and it will also be very obvious for the popularity of overseas games.”

Zhong Xiu was silent for a moment, sighed, and said: "That's true, but I still feel uncomfortable thinking that if an overseas team wins the championship and takes away the final prize money...Although I know that for our operator, no matter whether it is a domestic championship It is a good thing to win the championship overseas, but out of personal feelings, I still hope that the domestic team can win the championship.”

   "Everyone present thinks so."

With a chuckle, Lin Yao said softly: "I also hope that the domestic team can win the championship, but if we ensure that the competition is fair and just, and the domestic team still loses, then there is nothing to say, let's come again next time, after all Even if you don't meet an overseas team this time, you will meet next time, and you will have to face it."

  Lin Yao's initial plan was to let domestic players take the lead, but the plan couldn't keep up with the changes.

  That being the case.

  Then let domestic players face it in advance.

   This is not the previous life, Lin Yao really can't believe it, domestic FPS players will really be unable to beat overseas players.

  If the team selected from the large number of players still cannot beat overseas players, then she will accept it, as long as the loss is not too ugly, then she can accept it.

   Heard what Lin Yao said.

  Everyone present knew that she had an idea, and all looked at her.

  "Since Reflecta expects and is willing to provide support, and the city also hopes, then let's make a U-turn and change the competition after the quarterfinals to offline!"

  Lin Yao greeted everyone's eyes and expressed her decision.

  Not long after she hung up on Zhang Jianghu, she actually made a decision.

   Just need a little time to organize thoughts.

   "I know that time is tight, and we have no experience, but there is a first time in everything. Since time is tight, we will find a way to deduct a little time."

Lin Yao pulled the whiteboard and wrote the original schedule on the whiteboard: "The first is the registration stage. We can make an announcement and set aside two days for the overseas side to let Reflecta take care of it. There is no time limit for registration, as long as It is enough for them to come to the country to participate in the qualifiers at the scheduled time. As for how they come, because it is required by Reflecta, we are just a small studio, so we don’t care. We have no experience in the first competition, and the initial There is no preparation for offline events at all, I believe they can understand.

Then there is the qualifier stage, we can properly arrange the early stage schedule a little more densely, after all, now the quarterfinals have been changed to offline matches, the previous preparations we made for the qualifiers can be cancelled, and we can focus on the more eye-catching offline quarterfinals . "

Lin Yao crossed out part of the date of the registration stage and the qualifiers: "If this is arranged, the time should be in time, and the day of the offline competition, we should set it on the last day of January, which happens to be Saturday, and then count The dates for the group stage, the knockout stage, and the final match can just be completed in mid-February, and the Chinese New Year will come after the game."

"The competition venue will be the same, and then we will have a warm-up for the opening of the offline game, and a warm-up for the final. As for the middle of the game, it will be fine. Calculated in this way, the time is enough. Although it is tight, but it is simple, it will definitely be possible. manage."

  Lin Yao talked about her plan.

  The people present looked at the date written by Lin Yao on the whiteboard, thought about it, and nodded.

   "Of course, simplicity is simplicity, but we can't make it too ugly."

Lin Yao raised her hand and nodded at the whiteboard with a marker: "First of all, we must ensure the smoothness and fairness of the competition. In this regard, Nie Hui is in charge of connecting with Reflecta, and Zhong Xiu is assisting. Especially the equipment on site and the referee's commentary and other issues , I want you to worry about it."

"Understood."

  Nie Hui and Zhong Xiu nodded and agreed.

   "As for the on-site effects and the warm-up session, Ms. Mu and I are in charge. At the same time, we will connect with Reflecta, and then Qi Jianhua..."

   "Yes." Qi Jianhua replied.

   "The final CG I asked you to make may need to be changed."

  Lin Yao sighed: "Because it will be used for the opening ceremony, you need to work hard."

"I see."

  Qi Jianhua nodded vigorously and had no objection.

   "Also, Ms. Mu, the music company you worked with last time, please find their person in charge, I want to have a chat with them..."

"it is good."
