The Rebirth of the Male God Starts From Playing Games

  Chapter 276 274. Thought it was a mouse, but unexpectedly it was a pig

  On April 17, the company invited a group of professional war3 players to come to the company for user experience testing.

  There are several players who are familiar with Cao Yang in his previous life.

  Sky, TeD, xiaoT.

It’s actually quite exciting to think about it. Sky’s reputation in the war3 world can be described as a king. Several WCG championships in his previous life were won by SKY. He is also considered the first group to win glory for the Chinese and compete in international e-sports competitions. It's a **** who overturned the stick.

  And Ted is the Chinese ghost king, xiaoT mainly fights the orcs, these people are very powerful e-sports players.

  In addition to the three of them, there are a few new faces that Cao Yang has never seen before.

One is called yyw, the Chinese name is Yang Yaowei, the other is called 880, Wang Chuanjie, and there is a young face called deng, Deng Fan, because he is young and has quite good skills, he is especially good at fighting the orcs, and he is considered a new beast king, everyone. Habitually call him Deng Shen.

Um……

  I can only talk about the impact of the butterfly effect. Even the powerful game planners have come up with many new faces. Naturally, many newcomers will be tapped in the game competition.

  These people have now formed a new team called WE.

  WE’s current boss is Renhuang SKY, whose Chinese name is Li Xiaofeng.

  Cao Yang sat in the observation room next to him, eating cakes while watching the situation in the experience room with others.

  This time, it is mainly to test the opinions of professional players on the new panda race in war3.

  Before the test, Bomi had signed a non-disclosure agreement with several people.

As the host of this time, Magic Yang is also a familiar e-sports player, and I can talk to them very well. This time, the user experience of "Warcraft 3: Pandaren Mystery" is mainly made by Lao Yang. Presided over.

  Although Magic Yang is called Lao Yang by people, his surname is not Yang, his name is Zhou Chen.

  Lao Yang sat in the user experience room and helped several people turn on the computer.

  He first explained to everyone the purpose of this user experience:

  "Our company’s newly developed expansion pack for Warcraft 3, a new race has been added to the Mystery of Pandaren, which is designed in accordance with the Eastern cultural background and the name is called Pandaren."

   "Fuck, old Yang Niubi!" Yang Yao said directly.

   "Yeah, this is a bit too much. The Chinese are doing Warcraft by themselves. Wouldn't they change whatever they want?" said xiaoT next to it.

  Everyone usually plays games together. When Lao Yang is not at work, he will play games with these people online, so there is no scruples between each other.

"It's too much," Old Yang smiled and rolled his eyes and said, "You are too much, can this thing be changed randomly? I will let it go out to play in the future, and even if the Pandaren are strong, then everyone will With Pandaren, how do you still mix?"

  Everyone smiled, it was just a joke anyway.

E-sports games emphasize balance. If which race is too strong or which is too weak, it is not conducive to the development of e-sports. Different players and different races must be able to play their own value. Good achievements can be achieved in the competition, and there is communication with each other. This is a good e-sports game design.

  So even if everyone joked that the Chinese would change whatever they wanted to do in Warcraft, it was just a talk.

   But to be honest, I can see the e-sports game made by the Chinese themselves, and it is still war3, which is a bit weird.

  Lao Yang found a sense of superiority in all of his colleagues. The expressions on these guys' faces were similar to when he first joined Bomi.

  Lao Yang couldn’t believe that the Warcraft he had been playing, such a game that could bring Blizzard to the altar, could one day be transformed by himself.

  Now he has turned from an e-sports player to a game planner, and he is really unbelievable.

   But looking back on this path, Lao Yang felt that being a game planner was really not easy.

The design of the Pandaren race was really exhausting. When the game was established, he, Ma Tianyuan and Meng Xiao basically thought about a new race unit every day, and then they had meetings one by one. Was killed in the process.

  This is actually quite uncomfortable, because for the past year, they have to go through such a high-intensity brain-opening and continuous rationalization process every day.

  Before, when Lao Yang was a player, he only needed to master different tactics according to the units and characteristics created by the game official, according to his own experience and keen analysis and understanding.

  Now as the [creator] of the game, he deeply understands the hardships of making games.

  This is really an extremely painful process. If you are playing a game, think about it, think whatever you want. It doesn’t matter how unreasonable your ideas are.

  But after becoming a game planner, Lao Yang realized that those were really just blind thoughts.

  Many things must be rationalized.

  Especially nowadays, Lao Yang and his colleagues often talk about this sentence:

   "There is no way to give a value in this design!"

  Lao Yang felt that the players who sprayed planning trash on the Internet, and those who casually said "I can do it, I can" are really too young.

  ……

   "This machine in front of each of you, we have installed the latest version of Pandaren Mystery, you can see it after you enter the game."

  Lao Yang made a simple explanation, "After starting the game, everyone will have a half-hour stand-alone experience, and then everyone will play a 1v1 battle in pairs.

  At the same time, when you play, you can try our newly developed new map named [TheMysteriousIsland]"

   "What? What is it?" Yang Yaowei shouted directly.

  Everyone is also at a loss.

  "Brother, don't pretend to be English here, we don't understand it." said the Deng Shen.

"The Chinese name is Mysterious Island." Lao Yang pointed to them and said, "Look at you. You don't usually learn English. How can you go to the world to brag about it in the future? What if you win the international competition? Foreign media asks. , How do you answer?"

  "Hahahaha...Anyway, there will be an interpreter at that time. If we understand, what else do we have to translate?" Yang Yaowei said.

  Everyone laughed.

  Sky smiled low-key and implicitly beside him, “Everyone will fill up the English when they go back. I think Lao Yang said it very well. You will have to communicate with players from other countries in the future to play games.”

  Since the boss has spoken, the others can only smile and nod.

   "That's for sure, I hope I can invite a nice teacher." Yang Yaowei said.

  ……

"After booting up, give everyone half an hour to experience the game by yourself, try new races and new battle maps," Lao Yang said, "After our game is launched, if these new maps can pass the player's test, it will be It's possible to choose a map for the game, so everyone try it out."

  "Then, after the single player experience is over, we will enter a 1v1 battle in two groups. It will take about an hour, and then there will be a 2v2 battle, which is also an hour.

  After completing these, we will spend an hour to conduct a questionnaire survey with you to see how everyone’s initial impressions and feelings about the game are. "

  After Magic Yang finished speaking, he left the rest of the time to them.

  After booting up, everyone was very excited to enter the game.

  Sky is still very curious about the new race.

  Because the design of the fifth race is quite difficult, as long as the design is not good or the value is difficult to balance, it will be criticized by the players.

  It was already quite difficult to balance the 4 races, but now we have to add a new race. This difficulty has risen exponentially. It can be said that it is quite difficult.

  Anyway, Li Xiaofeng felt that he could not design it.

  When he heard that Bomi was going to be in the fifth race, he also made up for some possibilities, but he later rejected them all by himself.

  Game design is really not a job that ordinary people can do, especially for this kind of high-intensity competitive game.

  Li Xiaofeng entered the LAN battle very skillfully, and then chose the new map that Lao Yang just mentioned, Mysterious Island, and gave the opponent a crazy computer.

  Sure enough, a fifth race, Pandaren, has appeared in the game.

  After entering the game, a gold mine first appeared in the screen, and then there were 5 small pandamen standing beside them. The pandamen looked cute, with a black and white hair, and the whole body was rounded.

  After reading the instructions, Sky asked one of the pandamen to go to the creation base, one pandamen to build the hero altar, and the other 3 pandas to mine.

  In the whole process, the Pandaren used bamboo to build constructions. The animation process looks cute and full of oriental charm.

  The bamboo scaffolding and the animation display process in the middle all have a feeling of being engaged in the infrastructure construction of a major country.

After   , Li Xiaofeng fumbled for himself to first give out the hero of Crazy Blade·Qinglong from the altar.

  ……

Crazy Sword Qinglong is a hero designed based on Guan Yu. Its movement speed is slightly slower than that of Juggernaut, but its attack power is very high. It takes the power + agility route. The big move can also become a Chinese dragon. Its splash attack hits, and over time, water will appear on the ground, and the water will cause the units trapped in it to lose health every second.

   can be said to be quite an IMBA.

  From the point of view of skill design, Crazy Sword Azure Dragon is very suitable for fighting positional warfare.

  So in terms of design, in order to match the heroes and strengthen the characteristics of positional warfare, Pandaren’s advanced units are also specially used to cooperate with positional warfare. For example, a very high-level mage unit with Chinese characteristics——

  Feng Shui Master.

  These people have a skill, the first one is called Tianchang.

  Sky change can change the current weather. When they chant, it can produce windy weather and slow down the opponent's unit movement.

  Of course, the scope of effect is relatively limited. About a feng shui master can affect about 2 orc areas.

  Furthermore, the unit of Feng Shui Master cannot be moved during the process of casting the spell.

In the orthodox style of play, it is definitely necessary to protect the crispy units like Feng Shui division behind the team, and then let the shield soldiers carry it. If it can cooperate with the dragon of the mad sword and the dragon, then it will be able to bring a wave of super power. The effect of positional strikes.

  ……

  As the designer, the Pandaren strategy provided by Bomi is not only a positional warfare or [mud warfare] style of play, but also provides other possibilities for speed push and mobile warfare.

  However, the design is definitely not perfect. It can only be said that while the characteristics are outstanding, the weaknesses are also obvious.

  For example, the set of positional warfare with the hero mad knife·blue dragon depends very much on the terrain and the level of the hero.

Before the hero reaches level 6, the transition period is actually more difficult. Even if the hero reaches 6, it is very important to consider the timing. This set of mobile warfare is more troublesome, and once the opponent cuts into the back row, then the Feng Shui master There will be heavy casualties, which is actually a test of the players' resilience.

  ……

  In order to better and more realistically record their game experience of the new race, the planners did not give any guidance next to them during the whole process.

  And for the questions asked by the players, their uniform answer is always——

  "Try it yourself."

  Unless you encounter some bugs in the program, such as getting stuck, crashing, or the character suddenly stops moving, sinking into the ground, making it impossible to continue, Lao Yang will call the program **** to come and solve it.

  The design issues on the game are the focus of this experience.

  These all need to be explored by themselves, such as which units are stronger, which units should be first-ranked, and what characteristics they have are actually parts that need to be explored by themselves.

  Then the camera and the planner next to it will record these as content that needs to be optimized and improved later.

  Li Xiaofeng played for a while, and found that the more he played, the more interesting he became, and the more he played, the better.

  This panda race really gives him an unusually familiar and familiar feeling all the time, as if every class and every hero reminded him of Chinese history.

   Such a race with oriental charm, only the Chinese can make it.

  He was amazed while playing games.

  To be invited to experience this game today, as the first batch of experiencers after the game is completed, I am really lucky.

  ……

  Next door, everyone is silently observing the expressions on the faces of the players.

  The latest eye tracker is installed on each machine. The eye tracker will observe and capture the player's gaze track in real time and display it on the computer in the observation room.

  Yes, there is a row of computers in the observation room. The graphic display on the computer is completely synchronized with the current computers of these experiencers, but the only difference is——

  The trajectory displayed by the eye tracker cannot be seen on the computers of the contestants, but they can be seen in the observation room next door.

  So what they were doing, how long they stayed in their eyes, where they stayed, these were all recorded one by one.

  Also, through the single-sided mirror next to them, Cao Yang and the others can clearly see the expressions on the faces of these players and the operation of their fingers.

   is equivalent to having someone you can't see silently observing you in the dark, and every move is under the eyes of others.

  ……

  The planners stared at each other and made notes based on the performance of the other party.

  In addition, the young lady from the UE department is also helping to record the obstacle points encountered by the players during the game with a notebook.

  In order to make the user experience better, Cao Yang directly set up a user experience department this time and expanded a team of 50 people.

  Most of the people in these UE positions are young ladies, and they are young and beautiful. They are mainly friendly, so that they can interview and track players.

  But it’s not necessarily true. It still depends on demand. If you encounter female players in the future, there will be more male UEs.

  Follow them over today, and the UE lady who made this UE’s name is Zhao Hanya. She is a pretty girl who is about the same age as Cao Yang.

  When she led the crowd to the experience room just now, several e-sports players looked straight.

  ……

  The user experience this time will take about 4 hours. Everyone is watching, eating cakes, and drinking beverages provided by the company, which is extremely pleasant.

  According to Zhao Hanya's idea, where is this place for work? It feels like a vacation.

  Bomi’s service and treatment should be considered the best in the Internet industry, right?

after awhile.

  The master planner Meng Xiao smiled, “Have you noticed that in the process of their exchanges, there is basically no intersection between Yang Yaowei and Wang Chuanjie?”

   "Huh?" Cao Yang took a closer look.

  During the game, several players will exchange their thoughts and opinions with each other. For example, Yang Yaowei, who is the most up-and-coming, often calls Lao Yang to tell him where he is not doing well and where he needs to be improved.

Wang Chuanjie next to    smiled contemptuously every time he saw this.

  And when Wang Chuanjie communicated with the people next to him, Yang Yaowei would calm down.

   is really an interesting phenomenon.

   "It seems to be really Ha, why is this?"

  Meng Xiao laughed, “That’s because Yang wanted to rob Wang Chuanjie’s girlfriend some time ago.”

"what?!"

  Although he was surprised, Cao Yang had a melon-eating expression on his face.

  It seems that the e-sports circle in the previous life is almost like this. A sister has played with boyfriends from several teams.

  Unexpectedly, this trend has already begun.

  Cao Yang tweeted his mouth, it was really funny.

  The former mouse king used his leg to clamp someone else’s girlfriend’s leg. Later, there was a harassment door. Pis’s girlfriend sent a thousand miles to the event... The Baozi Festival cried and said live broadcast, “She’s in 98 years, I can’t play with her!”

   "If you don't really like it, who would be willing to be a dog licking?"

  The term licking dog has spread all over the Internet.

  I don’t know what kind of stalks will appear in this life.

The UE sister paper next to    also turned her head and looked at Meng Xiao with watery eyes.

  Everyone is more interested in gossip.

Meng Xiao smiled bitterly, "I am not very clear about the specific situation. It seems to be because the previous two people were in a team, and the relationship was very good. Once Wang Chuanjie's mother was sick, and he took leave to go home and entrusted his girlfriend to his own. Good brother Yang Yaowei.

  I didn’t expect that when I came back, my girlfriend had become someone else’s girlfriend. "

   "Puff..." Cao Yang spouted a sip of Coke.

  Okay...

  I thought it was another mouse, but I didn’t expect that they were piggy!

  ……
