Chapter 133: New version of Warcraft

After getting the new version of the planning document, Su Yuyu, Zheng Hongyu and Qian Wei began to get busy.

In fact, these RPG maps are not the most classic, nor the most balanced, so why should Chen Mo do these pictures?

Because these maps represent several major branches of Warcraft RPG, they are the prototype of the classic Warcraft RPG, which allows players to experience the fun of Warcraft RPG, and not to go too far, let the player's thinking restricted.

You must know that the Warcraft RPG map has spawned a monster such as DOTA. Chen Mo does not want to make his own RPG map to give the designers some strange inspiration, and lift the stone to lick their own feet.

Defensive map: "Guardian Athena".

The defensive map is very simple, but it contains the core elements of Warcraft RPG: hero collocation, hero training. Over time, the offensive monsters will become stronger and stronger, and the way the player clears the way is to find the best match among many heroes and many items.

Tower defense class map: "Tower Defense."

In fact, this map is derived from the classic tower defense of the past life such as the circulation circle. The core fun of the tower defense is similar to the defensive map. The difference is that the player needs to choose the tower to build the tower, and the core turns from the hero to the defensive tower.

Leisure map: "The Pyramid Escape".

This picture can be said to be a representative of casual maps. Players can choose from dozens of game modes and avoid the various organs to achieve victory.

Confrontation map: Chenghai 3C.

In fact, Chenghai 3C is very primitive compared to DOTA. Its biggest problem is imbalance, but its biggest charm is also unbalanced. Many players like to play the "Chenghai 3C" metamorphosis version, it is precisely because of its imbalance.

At the same time, because the player can manipulate multiple heroes, it slightly dilutes some of this imbalance, making it a very entertaining map.

Chen Mo only intends to develop these four classic RPG maps, and other maps let players freely ponder.

......

It didn't take too long to develop a new version, and it was basically less than two weeks.

There are a lot of maps in the Battle of Warcraft. These three people have all started to make it. They are very familiar with the world editor. It is not difficult to do these RPG maps. The main time is to adjust the hero skills and set the level. The difficulty is above.

Chen Mote said that the hero skills in the RPG map must be completely different from the battle mode, both in line with the hero's characteristics, but also to make new ideas.

These three people are basically meditation, but in the process, they have expanded their imagination a little and made it very interesting.

In particular, Qian Wei is basically responsible for the various designs of Chenghai 3C, and the overall level of the past life is reproduced. Chen Mo is still quite satisfied.

Chen Mo finally checked the completion of the three maps and said, "Okay, yes."

Su Yuyu: "Yes! Finished!"

Zheng Hongwei: "But it seems that there is no difficulty."

Qian Wei said: "The store manager, I feel that this version update has no content. Although it seems quite fun, will the players be satisfied? I always feel that this map is more than the previous game. It’s a long way off.”

Chen Mo said: "Do not worry. Hong Sheng, you should write a version update instructions, and then release a new version."

Soon, the version update instructions were written, and Su Yuyu released the new version and updated instructions.

This update is not much, only updated one CG, enriched some basic settings, and added four RPG maps.

CG is mainly because the production cycle is longer, so it can only be updated one by one. If you take CG off, these new additions are less than 1M, which is only slightly shabby in terms of capacity.

Oh, it should be said that it is very shabby.

Of course, if you want to expand your capacity, you can make new battles. However, the players' interest is now mainly focused on the online battle, and the voice of the new battle is not high, so Chen Mo did not do it.

This version update, Chen Mo did not intend to charge, including follow-up map production, Chen Mo did not intend to charge.

Because the updated game content is very small, if you charge in the form of DLC, it will be too pithy, certainly not.

Or you can also take the map charging mode. For example, after the player makes a better RPG map, other players will spend 1~2 yuan on playing this picture. The money is half-pointed by Chen Mo and the original author.

Chen Mo thought for a moment and did not adopt this charging model.

The reason is very simple. These maps can't be charged at the beginning. Otherwise, the heat will definitely not get up, but the follow-up charges are very pithy. The players will be very strange. Why do you just start playing for free and have more people to play?

Therefore, the map charges are good for the producers, and the players will seriously dampen their enthusiasm, and Chen Mo is contrary to the idea of ​​doing the Warcraft RPG map.

Chen Mo's Warcraft RPG map is not for the healthy development of the game industry, just to further stimulate the sales of Warcraft.

RPG map is very suitable for friends to open black together, Chen Mo did this, mainly to let the "Warcraft" game spread from the RTS game player group to the surrounding, so that these people pull friends and colleagues One of Dora is one more sales.

Moreover, the RPG map is also to further extend the vitality of the game "Warcraft", let its influence slowly spread, ferment, and pave the way for PC games developed in the future.

......

After the simple preparations, the new version of Warcraft is officially updated!

This new version of the update is relatively low-key, just issued a new version of the update instructions, the other is not.

So many players found that the game silently updated a new version when they landed on the game.

“Hey? Is there a new version? This Chen Mo’s work is very efficient!”

"Yeah, "Warcraft" is developing very well now, and there is no balance problem. Wouldn't it be so soon to release a new version?"

"Conscience! Wow, this is the Chen Mo I know, I am so moved to cry!"

"Yeah, why did the sudden conscience find out?"

"Quick, what is it?"

Soon, after the players reviewed the specific updates, they began to scream.

"I rub, what did I see? A CG, some setup options updated, a few new maps???"

"Is it difficult to tease me?"

"I rely on, this is also a new version? Chen Mo, is there a difference between the two new versions we understand?"

"Fortunately, no charge..."

"I rely on this, the dog currency is still charged? Is there any reason? Is there any law? Ah?"

"Updated a new CG, I looked at it, it's great!"

"So, is the new CG the only useful thing for this version update..."

“This, is Thunder’s mutual entertainment going to transform the Thunder movie studio?”

"Are you a game company or a movie company!!"
