Chapter 318: New version, qualifying (three more)

This video, which was only over 4 minutes, made everyone feel shocked and inexplicable.

"The trough? Is this high-definition cg?"

"Bob!"

“There are several heroes here, card masters, Anne, Galen, and quite king? But how many do you know?”

“Is it a new hero?”

"Too great, hurry to see the new version of the update!"

"This will force you to come up!"

"After all, the Thunder movie studio, the basic operation, sit down."

Compared with Warcraft and Diablo, the League of Legends cg animation takes a completely different route.

"Warcraft" is a blizzard cg that emphasizes the content of the story, often intercepting a key node of a famous event, using highly concentrated content to show the essence of the story, each line is worth repeating.

However, "League of Legends" is the main cg content through the multi-hero melee, to some extent ignore the rationality of the plot.

Because this kind of moba game must first consider the diversity and balance of heroes, the development of new heroes is mainly to enrich the game mechanics, not to fill the plot.

At the same time, these heroes are the protagonists, and their personality is different. They are all stuffed into a plot structure, and the plot is actually very difficult to do.

Therefore, although the League of Legends is constantly evolving the League of Legends universe and enriching the world view, the players' recognition of the Valoran continent is always weaker than the Azeroth world.

Of course, this is mainly the limitation of the game type itself.

Although the CG of League of Legends has no plot, it shows the characteristics of the hero and the characteristics of the game. Therefore, as a means of promotion, this cg is enough for the players to enjoy the game.

......

The main updates to the new version of League of Legends are as follows.

The first is to increase the game cg, this cg was released in the past s3 in Chen Mo's previous life, called "Deformation of Destiny." Choosing this set of cg as the opening cg of "League of Legends" is mainly because the heroes in this game are more in line with the original version of the heroes of Chen Mo, and the cards, Galen, Barbarian, Anne, etc. are all heroes already on the line. Has already had a certain influence in the player community.

Followed by new heroes.

This version update has updated a total of five new heroes, one for each position: Wandering Master Ryze, Doomsday Messenger (Scarecrow), Catalina, War Goddess Xavier (Wheel Mama), Wind Girl.

Among them, the wandering mage Ryze should be regarded as a hero in the strict sense. There are also some cases, but less.

(Of course, the old version of Ritz was a hot order at s4, and also completed the 3:0 South Korean team's achievements in gogoing.)

This version is mainly released because Ritz and Catalina are both very old-fashioned and very classic characters. The scenes in CG are also quite sufficient, so they are released together.

However, on the label of Ritz, Chen Mo also hooked up the two labels on the road and the middle, for players to choose freely.

Both the heroes Ryze and Catherine have undergone redoing. Before redoing, they are novice heroes. After redoing, the mechanism becomes more complicated. Chen Mo continued the previous design ideas and directly followed the new skills.

Although the old version of Ritz's spell machine gun, the old version of Catalina's face roll keyboard is more fun, but after all, it is not well balanced, the value is too high, the value is lower, the number is lower, the bench is cold all year round, and the gameplay is not rich enough.

If Chen Mo considers the opportunity in the future, he can put these historical versions of the hero into a wild mode and temporarily not update the official service.

In this way, all the heroes in cg appear, except for the eternal nightmare.

The nightmare is also a wilderness, and the Scarecrow has some repetitions, so staying in the next version of development is equivalent to giving the players some suspense.

In addition to cg and new heroes, there is a very heavy update: turn on qualifying mode.

In fact, for this model, players have been looking forward to it for a long time.

In "Warcraft", Chen Mo has established a very complete ranking mechanism, and the ranking has become the most important yardstick for measuring player level.

Many old players of Warcraft know very well that this ranking mechanism is of great significance to the game itself, so everyone knows that League of Legends will open the ranking system sooner or later.

It only opened earlier than everyone thought.

In fact, the current opening of qualifying is still a bit early, because "League of Legends" currently only 30 heroes, in the call mode, both sides have banned places, and the selection of heroes can not be repeated, the depth of 30 heroes is slightly insufficient.

Chen Mo is considering to let the players find a clear route as soon as possible, so that the masters can get rid of the fish ponds of the chickens as soon as possible, so that the game can be put on the right track faster, so the ranking system is still opened. .

However, considering that there are only 30 heroes at present, the 10ban mode is a bit too ruthless. For the time being, the 6ban mode is adopted, that is, the blue side is first selected first, and the blue and purple sides are each disabled.

The new qualifying system has also caused heated discussion among players.

In the official forum of the League of Legends, an enthusiastic player posted a post to analyze the version update. After briefly analyzing the pros and cons of several new heroes, he deliberately spent a lot of time to interpret this new qualifying mode.

"I think the most exciting thing about this update is the qualifying mode. If cg is the face and the new hero is rich in game content, then the qualifying mode is equivalent to giving the "League of Legends" soul."

"Playing "Warcraft" knows what I mean, playing the ladder and the passers-by are completely different game experiences. Under the stimulation of the rankings, the various routines of this game will be constantly Developed, it will further stimulate the heat."

"And, a careful interpretation of the ranking rules will reveal that this "League of Legends" has adopted a more complete ranking mechanism than "Warcraft."

"In the new call mode, players can disable the hero, which is a test for each player's hero pool, and to some extent avoid the emergence of repeated lineups."

“The design of the big segment from bronze to the king, on the surface, seems to be just a change in the statement, but actually gives a very intuitive image of the “segment”, which is no longer a dry score.”

“And, after joining the concepts of promotion, small position, big position, etc., this ranking system has become more abundant, and it is also more conducive to eliminating the luck factor and showing the true level of a player.”

"Imagine that before someone else asked you what position, you answered 3000 points, he would have no concept, what level is this? But if you answer gold, diamond or king, the concept will become very clear."

"Of course, the most important thing is that it satisfies my demand, don't stop me, I have to go to the ranks of the king!"
