Create a great era of e-sports

Chapter 115 Chen Rucheng

When it comes to real-time strategy games, Warcraft and Interstellar can never jump past.

Blizzard has designed too many things for these two games, not only in terms of gameplay skills, but even the background stories in the games alone can make a TV series with dozens of episodes.

Because of this, the two games have also been enduring in the field of e-sports, leading to the emergence of the first batch of e-sports players in China.

In particular, Renhuang SKY, which is most familiar to domestic players, not only founded the WE Club later, but also became the first early e-sports player in China to win the WCG world championship, laying a solid foundation for the development of domestic e-sports.

In those ancient times, SKY was able to continue on the road of e-sports, and everyone has to say admiration.

Besides.

In order to maintain the vitality of Warcraft, Blizzard opened up the map editing of the game, and various masters joined in, editing many popular maps.

Many players born in the 80s and 90s must have the experience of calling friends to play RPG maps in Internet cafes, such as guarding Athena, green circle, guarding Jiange, fantasy Cao Cao, etc., including DOTA is also from Warcraft. Made in the game.

There are no real-time strategy games in this world now, and now that Lava Studio has launched "Race for Hegemony", Mo Yu immediately wants to develop it into the field of e-sports. After all, e-sports cannot be just MOBA. MOBA is the main force, but other supporting roles No less.

Interrupting the staff, Mo Yu turned his head and smiled and said, "Can I play with it?"

"Of course, this way please!"

The staff immediately led him to an empty machine next to him, and even kindly opened the game for him.

"Sir, the gameplay of our game is controlled by mouse and keyboard. In the game, everyone is born with a base."

Raising his hand to stop the staff from explaining, Mo Yu politely thanked: "Thank you, I want to play quietly by myself, can I?"

The staff was stunned, the embarrassment flashed across their faces, but they quickly returned to normal: "Sorry, the main reason is that there are too few tourists here, so I lost my composure."

"It's okay, you are busy first, I will play by myself."

"Ok."

enter the game.

The entire interface is very rough, but the single-player mode, campaign mode, and custom mode have all been developed in terms of gameplay.

Mo Yu clicked on the single player mode.

"Huh? Only one difficulty computer?"

After adjusting it a few times, Mo Yu found that there is only one computer level in the single-player mode, and there is no such level classification as simple, medium, and crazy.

There are four races to choose from: human, orc, undead, and elf.

Choose each of the four races to experience it.

Mo Yu had a new understanding of "Race for Hegemony".

"Each race has only two heroes. The gameplay of the game is too simple. There is not much challenge to the player's operation. It is easy to get started. The characters are relatively rough. It is obviously borrowed from the race settings of World of Warcraft, but this should be It will not constitute infringement, after all, the concepts of orcs and elves have already been spread around the world."

"There are very few types of buildings. Heroes have skills, but minions have no skills. The number of arms is also very small. There is no division of technology and levels. There is really only one framework."

"Such a simple framework obviously does not meet e-sports' requirements for games to be extremely confrontational."

"If you want to make a game that can be used for competition, "Racing Hegemony" still has a long way to go."

"Besides, this kind of game can't charge for props, and it's not appropriate to charge for appearance. It can only implement the buyout system. Fortunately, there are official platforms in this world, and the crackdown on piracy is very strict. There is still a market for the buyout system. It won't be the same as in previous lives. Same."

"On the whole, the biggest advantage of this game is the innovation of gameplay. If I want to integrate it into the framework of e-sports, I must first make major changes."

"But if there is a big change, unless the lava is bought by Moyu, it will be an act of supporting the enemy!"

While experiencing the game, Mo Yu quickly went through it in his head.

The emergence of real-time strategy games means that there is another new game under the e-sports framework.

All the manpower of Moyu Company is now devoted to the development of "God and God" and e-sports events. Even so, there are still not enough manpower. If you want to develop a new RTS game, you have to recruit new people, which is time-consuming and laborious.

The best way is to acquire Lava Studio, directly bring the IP of "Race for Hegemony" to Moyu Company, and become a studio specialized in RTS genre under Moyu Company.

In this way, he can safely come up with the plans of Warcraft and Interstellar in his previous life, let the people of Lava improve according to the plans, and then completely perfect "Race Hegemony", and then it can be launched on the market, and then promote it, hold competitions, and become an e-sports competition. one of the items.

Thinking of this, Mo Yu waved and called the staff just now.

"Hello, is the boss of your company here?"

At the CJ exhibition, if it is not necessary, the bosses of big manufacturers will generally not come. At most, they will send a person in charge. A small studio like Lava has few people. The boss is not just the boss. Released, will definitely see the effect.

The staff member was soliciting tourists. Hearing Mo Yu's question, he trotted over immediately: "Hello, I am the boss of Lava Studio. What can I do? Is there something wrong with our game?"

Mo Yu was taken aback when he heard the words, but he didn't expect this person to be the boss.

Just seeing him wearing an ordinary white shirt, running up and down to solicit tourists, and even teaching him how to serve tea, Mo Yu thought he was just an ordinary worker, but unexpectedly he was the boss.

Mo Yu asked in surprise, "Are you the boss?"

"Yes!" The man smiled and said, "Lava Studio, Chen Rucheng!"

"I saw you were running up and down just now, and thought you were an employee." Mo Yu smiled awkwardly: "Sorry."

Chen Rucheng didn't care about it: "Small company with few people, it's impossible for everyone to be busy, but I'm watching as an uncle, right? That's not good! I don't know why you are looking for me?"

"As for the game, let me introduce myself first, Moyu, Moyu Company!"

Mo Yu handed over a business card.

Chen Rucheng was shocked when he heard the words, and looked down at the business card again, and asked in surprise, "The development company of "God and God"?"

Mo Yu smiled and said, "You know me?"

Chen Rucheng shook his head: "I don't know, but now who in the industry doesn't know that there is a company called Moyu who has developed a super explosive game, which has a revenue of several hundred million yuan and millions of users within one year of its launch, which is worth doing by others. ten years?"

"Are you so famous?" Mo Yu asked with a smile, "I feel like it's normal."

Chen Rucheng said: "Of course it is very famous. It can be said that the game "God and God" is a big name. Now game companies across the country, from big companies like Tianxing to small studios like Lava, everyone knows it. No one knows, its performance is too horrible, everyone is studying its development trajectory, and wants to reproduce the next "God and God". In the face of this situation, Mr. Mo wonders if there is any way to deal with it?"

"Of course there is a way." Mo Yu nodded.

"What method?" Chen Rucheng asked, "Can you tell me?"

Mo Yu shook his head: "Business secrets, I'm sorry."

Chen Rucheng was a little disappointed, and Mo Yu said again when he saw this, "It's not that I can't tell you, but first you have to answer my question. Since you know that "Gods and Gods" is very popular now and everyone is making remakes, why didn't you lava?" Thinking this way, instead of developing this "Race for Hegemony"?"

Chen Rucheng looked at Mo Yu strangely: "Why do you want to follow suit?"

"Everyone knows that "Gods and Gods" is very popular, but with so many popular games on the market, do all of them have to follow suit? Counting it down, I have been making games for so many years, and I have never seen a copy that can compare The original version is hotter."

"Those who developed the original version will not always be immersed in the glory of the past, but will continue to innovate. It is because of this innovation that they can develop good games. Lava disdains to follow suit. "Race Hegemony" is a game I developed for three years. The game, I firmly believe that it can lead me to success."

Hearing Chen Rucheng's words, Mo Yu shook his head secretly.

I'm still too young to see the power of penguins!
However, Chen Rucheng is very energetic, and only by daring to innovate can he break out of the shackles. Just like Blizzard, at least in terms of game production, it has achieved innovation, each model is different, and each model is strong.

Mo Yu praised: "Your idea is good, the world is vast, and there is a lot to do. We make games with this kind of spirit, dare to take a new path, and only on the new path can we have the opportunity to touch the heights of others."

His compliment made Chen Rucheng a little embarrassed.

Chen Rucheng looks very young, maybe only a few years older than Mo Yu, visually, it should be about thirty, and it is exactly this age, just stepping on the final period when the young people's spirit is about to dissipate. It's hard to say whether there is such momentum.

Chen Rucheng said embarrassingly: "Saying such things in front of you, Mr. Mo, makes me look like I'm not old or young. I heard that "Gods and Gods" was originally written by you, Mr. Mo, in your room alone day and night. It was only after writing the code that it was finally completed, and only then did it achieve the current results. In comparison, I am far behind."

Mo Yu waved his hands and said, "Don't underestimate yourself, I just borrowed the experience of my predecessors."

"Your innovative idea is correct, and it is precisely because of this persistence that you finally have this unique gameplay of "Race Hegemony". I just tried it. Although the current content is very simple, this original gameplay confronts It is both fun and entertaining, its future is limitless, and it has huge potential. You only need to enrich the content of the game and launch it on the market. Players will definitely pay for it. Those who are experiencing it on the stage are the best proof !"

"Ming people don't say dark words. I have taken a fancy to "Race for Hegemony", and you and I appreciate it very much, so are you interested in joining Moyu Company?"
