Chapter 386 National War Design Plan
Players are very busy, and Lin You is also very busy.
He needs to finish the work at hand as soon as possible, lest when the player starts to work, he will be trapped by the work and unable to watch the fun at the first time.
The loss would be too great.
And when he thought of something exciting to watch, Lin You immediately became full of energy.
The design related to "Battlefield" and "National War" was dragged from Monday to now, and I immediately had an idea.
As soon as he arrived at the company, he called Qin Songyun and Fan Rui for a meeting.
The two of them also brought several capable deputies with them. Lin You had already told them in advance that in the subsequent development of "Battlefield", they would lead elites to join in and form a large enough team to complete the game as soon as possible.
development.
As for "League of Assassins" and "Quick Chase" that are still in operation, they need to select some people from the team and form a dedicated team for operation and maintenance.
The next two games will not stop updating, but will slow down the pace. Only some small quest lines or activities will be updated daily to continue to provide players with some freshness.
Major updates will be produced slowly, and one update may take longer than the development time of the main game.
But in fact, having said that, Yunmeng's game development speed is ridiculously fast. A game can be developed in three or two months.
Even if it takes another three or two months to make a major update, comparing it horizontally with the industry, it will still be very fast.
Haven’t you seen that NetDragon has been fighting for its life just to produce a DLC in 3 months?
Not to mention that Lin You is already planning to form a new department. This department will probably be formally established after he buys another building.
The only responsibility of this department to be formed in the future is to expand the virtual city.
Metropolis and Night City are enriched and expanded, with more buildings, more city activities and even – more new cities!
——Of course, it is not a meaningless repetition.
If you can get Lin You to agree to build a brand new city instead of continuing to enrich Metropolis and Night City, it can only be for one reason: the new city has its own characteristics and can be clearly distinguished from Metropolis and Night City.
.
The existence of this department will also greatly reduce the development workload of the "Assassin's League" and "John Wick" operation teams.
The deputies brought over by Qin Songyun and Fan Rui are all core members who will soon join the development of "Battlefield".
Lin You has an impression of everyone, but to say he knows them well would definitely be a lie.
Qin Songyun and Fan Rui introduced Lin You briefly again, and Lin You wrote down his name carefully.
Yunmeng has always needed more talents who can act independently, and he has always been very supportive of the cultivation of talents.
"Okay, let's get down to business, the planning of the national war system for "Battlefield"."
Everyone became serious and looked at Lin You intently.
"My initial idea was to find a large battlefield with a relatively large scale and complex participating member states in history, and throw players into this large battlefield based on countries. Then the winning country will compete with other winning countries.
Countries confront each other until the strongest country is finally determined."
"But I soon discovered that this didn't make sense."
As Lin You spoke, he also organized his thoughts again.
"Sooner or later, Yunmeng's players will spread all over the world, no, I can't say sooner or later, I should say soon, within a few months at most.
The current global trend is to call for peace. Although some countries have countercurrents, the mainstream is pursuing peace after all.
So taking a real battlefield—even one in history—and having players from one country fight to the death every day, competing for the only ‘position’, is a bit unsightly.”
“Even putting aside all of this, doing this is very problematic in terms of gameplay.
I would rather hope that the "national war" system allows all players to participate to the maximum extent, rather than ensuring the strongest combat effectiveness, resulting in only a few hundred players in each country being able to participate.
——Of course, it is not impossible to select a few hundred of the strongest people to fight on behalf of the country’s honor.
But if the entire set of national war mechanisms can only be played by hundreds or thousands of players, then absolutely not!
So in the end, I suddenly felt that maybe a more mediocre solution might not be a bad thing.
We can directly divide player matching methods into two types.
One is the [Random Matching] mode, in which players may be matched with opponents and teammates from all war zones - that is, countries. In this mode, the player's national territory will not be distinguished.
The other is the [National War Matching] mode. Of course, you can consider the name again.
In this mode, the player's teammates are all players from their own country, or war zone. And the opponents are all from the same country, war zone.
The team that wins the game will earn more points for their country's theater.
Don't deduct points for losers, as that will only dampen players' enthusiasm for participation. We can give a small amount of points, in short, to make players feel a sense of gain.
In addition, don't just use victory or defeat to calculate points. The overall number of kills in the game, the ratio of kills to deaths, and other information related to the player's activity level in the game can all be involved in the calculation of points.
How to calculate it specifically requires you to think carefully and come up with the entire plan."
While Lin You was talking about his ideas, he did not forget to throw out the tasks that seemed small but actually required a lot of time and energy to study.
"Oh, yes, the setting of the war zone should not be used now. It is mainly for future needs. Some small or poor countries may have very few players, but they also want to participate in the national war gameplay, or simply want the national war.
The gameplay rewards will be divided into appropriate war zones when the time comes, which can be regarded as a solution."
“Finally, it’s a matter of rewards.
My current idea is to divide the three levels, Class A, Class B, and Class C, based on the points rankings in different theaters. Of course, you can also consider whether you want to change the names.
War zones with higher levels only compete with war zones with higher levels. Level A has the highest rewards, but the battle difficulty and intensity are also higher.
As you go down to level B and level C, the rewards and intensity decrease in sequence.
There are three levels, which are adjusted every week based on the war zone points of that week.
Of course, the rewards should not be too exaggerated, otherwise the player's mentality will be unbalanced. The main thing is to gain experience and gold coins, and some small decorative items, you can consider it again."
"And one last question."
Having said this, Lin You likes to watch the excitement, and his love for big scenes is about to start again: "Should we make a completely virtual battlefield map, throw all the players in the war zone into it every month, and have a super battle?"
"If it's a battle of this level, we can definitely give the winner some good things!"
Lin You finished speaking his thoughts in one breath, picked up a glass of water and drank it, and then continued: "How is it? Do you have any ideas?"
Qin Songyun and Fan Rui had expressions on their faces: "There are many, but I don't know where to start."
However, Jiang Feng, who was brought over by Fan Rui, suddenly said a little uneasily: "Boss, if this game is made, will it become a place to train prepared soldiers? Many ordinary people who have never been on the battlefield have become right here.
I am very familiar with guns and battlefields, and my tactical literacy is constantly improving. Isn’t this a bit out of place..."
Lin You looked at him and sighed a little.
Although he also understood that Jiang Feng had just joined Yunmeng not long ago and was brought over by Fan Rui, so his personal abilities must be quite outstanding.
But the question he raised still made Lin You a little disappointed.
"Let me talk about the first point first. Many experiences in the game are fake. Do you know this?"
Lin You did not show his disappointment too obviously, and patiently explained to him: "In the metropolis, players will easily speed up to 140, but in reality, if you dare to do this on the highway, you will meet the King of Hell in minutes, so the shooting skills,
Things like body skills, difficult techniques, etc., will disappear like bubbles without the neuromodem."
——Of course, after Lin You developed the portable neural modem, is there any mysterious organization that privately combines "skills" and "portability" so that people can become like in the game in reality?
A sharpshooter, a car god, and even something even more outrageous...
Sorry, we don't know.
Yunmeng is a company that serves players, is completely civilian, and is 100% entertainment.
We want to go global and serve players around the world. We have nothing to do with the military or anything like that!
"Let's talk about the second point, which is to improve players' familiarity with guns. This is indeed true. But in many countries around the world, it is easy to come into contact with guns and weapons in daily life, and even learn to use them."
"But the new generation of citizens in Daxia are extremely unfamiliar with guns. There are very few people who know about guns, let alone familiar with weapons. They can quickly use them when they see them."
"Don't you think this shortcoming should be fixed?"
Everyone was a little surprised by this statement, but after thinking about it for a while, they felt that——
It seems reasonable?
"The last thing is the familiarity with the battlefield and tactical literacy?"
Mentioning this, Lin You's face was full of questions: "Does it mean that hundreds of people died one after another just to grab a point on the map?"
"Or, in a place as big as a street, 30 deaths in 20 minutes, an average of 1.5 deaths per minute?"
"This is a shitty battlefield sense of smell!"
"And if you die like a dog in the game, in reality you will only become more resistant to war, not more eager for war! In reality, a person does not have hundreds of lives to waste!"
"Any more questions?" Lin You finally asked.
"No more." Jiang Feng shook his head repeatedly, already beginning to regret his question.
"That's it for now." Lin You ended the meeting neatly: "After you go back, you should work on your current affairs first. We will talk about the details next week."
Qin Songyun and Fan Rui nodded and left with their employees.
Lin You breathed a long sigh of relief and finally felt relaxed.
He only planned to talk so much about the preliminary meeting of "Battlefield". With the two generals Qin Songyun and Fan Rui leading the team, he certainly didn't have to worry too much about the rest.
And with this kind of war theme, you don’t have to worry about Fan Rui letting himself go, it’s worry-free!
"Next time I won't talk about things that I haven't thought clearly about, so as not to put pressure on myself like this time."
Lin You learned his lesson while logging into the virtual world.
"Xiaomeng Xiaomeng, have those people who want to attack the Continental Hotel taken action? And what about the casino? How is it going?"
Chapter completed!
