Game Making: Start By Healing the Player

Many people think of another game "Minecraft" under Nebula Games.

The reason why "Minecraft" can be so prosperous, in addition to its own unique gameplay, the most important thing is its very perfect game community.

And now the map editor of "Warcraft" is obviously the same.

With the creative workshop of the Nebula game platform, a community of players is created.

Many designers in the industry are amazed.

Especially when it comes to a situation in the early days of the Nebula gaming platform.

Apparently, Nebula Games has been consciously maintaining the community in this regard since the launch of "Naughty Kitchen".

Of course, not all game designers are so emotional.

For example, Zhou Qi in Hero Entertainment.

He thought that maybe he should go to the hospital and take a look.

The big ups and downs of life are just too exciting.

Originally, he thought that "Warcraft" could divide up the RTS player group, and "Human War" might be able to divide up the casual player group.

But now, he clearly understood one thing.

That's what everyone wants in "Warcraft".

I am happy these days.

………………

Talk to designers who have shown various emotional changes because of the Warcraft editor.

Chen Xu's current mood is quite good.

For Chen Xu, the layout of "Warcraft" has basically been completed so far.

In today's ladder ranking, various other types of tactics have also been developed by players.

For example, some simple panacea tactics in the previous life, the double ghosts of heaven and earth, and even some unfamiliar but refreshing tactics that Chen Xu has never seen before have also been developed.

As for whether it works or not, it has not been shown on the professional stage, and no one can say for sure.

In addition, there are already signs of overseas and domestic competitions.

All can keep Warcraft active for some time to come.

As far as the content of "Warcraft" itself is concerned, for these core RTS players, it can be said that even if they play for ten years, they will not get tired of it.

In addition, there are a large number of players who are not very interested in RTS gameplay, and they have played a game on the RPG map.

Even this part of the player group is more.

According to a statistic in the background of the current Nebula game platform.

The number of people who play RPG maps every day has gradually caught up with a normal RTS battle.

This is also to be expected.

After all, not everyone has enough hand speed to experience the pure charm of RTS.

Including the previous "Warcraft", even if there is no impact from the later MOBA games, it will also be shunted away by RPG, FPS, and other types of games. There is no way to change it.

Unless a simplification is made to the gameplay of RTS.

But without this kind of formation and decision-making of various tactical situations, can RTS still be called RTS?

Nowadays, the two games "Minecraft" and "Warcraft", as well as "Three Kingdoms Kill" and "Jelly Bean Man" in the early years actually still have many stable players.

Coupled with the opening of the Nebula game platform, there are actually many third-party multiplayer games.

It can be said that for the current platform, this piece is basically stable.

But Chen Xu didn't think too much about what to do next.

However, for half a year in a row, the team within the company was in a high-load operation, and Chen Xu also made a decision.

That is to organize a wave of vacation activities with the entire staff.

Of course, it is in batches. After all, the company still needs to be manned.

As for the scope of vacation, do not go abroad.

After all, it is more chaotic abroad, and the great mountains and rivers in China are not worth seeing?

…………

…………

From the airport to the company by car, it was quite smooth all the way.

Sitting in the car, Ruan Ningxue, Yang Xin, Qin Yi and others were still discussing various experiences and knowledge of this trip, and arranging these corresponding photos.

On the other hand, Chen Xu received a call from the enthusiastic old acquaintance Teacher Meng.

"Hello?" Chen Xu was a little curious about Meng Zuo's call to find him at this time.

Meng Zuo on the other end of the phone said, "Mr. Chen, have you read the announcement from the game department?"

After being stunned for a moment, Chen Xu was a little confused: "Announcement? What announcement?"

"It's the tour of the game department! President Chen, don't you know?" Meng Zuo was also stunned for a moment.

"Zhengyou? I don't pay much attention to this. After all, what kind of expedition should I go to now? It's not very good." Chen Xu was also puzzled.

In the case of Zhengyou, he still participated in the first two years.

But since last year, he basically ignored it.

After all, with the size of Nebula Games today, wouldn't it be bullying to go to this expedition activity?

Hearing Chen Xu's words, Meng Zuo on the other end of the phone understood what was going on: "No, Mr. Chen uses your account to log in to the official website of the game department. This time it's a VR tour."

"Ah? Mr. Meng, wait a minute." Chen Xu was stunned for a moment, then took out his laptop from the backpack next to him and logged on to the official website of the game department.

At this time, Ruan Ningxue, Qin Yi and others next to him also quieted down and looked at Chen Xu curiously.

When entering the official website of the game department, Chen Xu understood what Meng Zuo meant.

A long list of text announcements, but after summing up, Chen Xu understands what it means.

To put it simply, VR games have been used in various industries, including the military field.

No matter domestic or foreign, there are some VR games specially designed for troops.

It's just that at present, this part of the country is relatively backward, so this time it is also a wave of reforms.

Of course, when it comes to training, the actual combat exercises are definitely the big ones. The so-called training in VR is more of a condition that cannot be created by exercises in reality.

Simply put, better nurturing situations like crisis response.

After all, it is impossible to say that actual combat exercises really put soldiers in danger.

This time, it is a political task, and of course it is voluntary to accept it or not.

After all, the research and development funds of a VR game can easily be hundreds of millions, and it is obviously impossible for the game department to spend this money.

There will be corresponding subsidies, but they will certainly not be high enough to cover the cost of a game.

On the premise of ensuring that the game makes money, try to make the game as satisfactory as possible to the game department.

Of course, there must be two different versions later, one for troops and one for players.

As for the benefits, of course there are.

The cutting-edge technologies developed by various game departments will be used by designers and companies.

This time, the VR expedition is also open to designers to use the most cutting-edge VR technology.

On the one hand, it is to provide special training games for troops, and on the other hand, it is also to pave the way for new VR equipment.

After reading the entire announcement, Chen Xu probably had a clear understanding in his heart.

"Mr. Meng, you're not looking for me just to talk about this, right?" Chen Xu asked.

"Cough, I can't hide from you, President Chen! This time I am a bridge of communication. I represent NetDragon. I will contact you, President Chen, and hope to work together to create a VR game." Meng Zuo confronted him. Chen Xu said.

"Huh?" Chen Xu wondered.

"After all, a large-scale VR game, and this kind of VR with a political mission is quite special. It is very likely that it will be lost. It is normal to share the risk."

"In addition, Mr. Chen and NetDragon also want to reach a strategic partnership with the Nebula game platform. If Mr. Chen has any intention in this regard, you can choose a time for everyone to sit down and chat." Meng Zuo on the other end of the phone said. .

"Okay, how about two o'clock in the afternoon the day after tomorrow? Teacher Meng." Chen Xu said for a while and hung up the phone after a few words.

At the same time, Chen Xu himself was surprised.

After all, wasn't NetDragon, like Tenghua, launching its works on the channel alliance?

Now he has turned his head and wanted to work with him.

Although surprised, Chen Xu decided to meet.

Let's see what's going on at NetDragon.

All that's left is the VR game here.

This time, Chen Xu really had some ideas about the direction of the game department's VR tour.
