Video Game Designer - Chapter 558

c555 IP linkage

With the release of the War Two Parts for almost half a month, basically how the game is played, players around the world have basically completely figured it out.

All kinds of weird ways to play, be a general, or a monarch, a reckless man on the battlefield, or a big businessman.

It is almost an extremely free gameplay, but also this game is a bit hardcore, for example, a war needs to involve too many things.

Terrain, morale, intelligence, logistics, and even weather can all contribute to the success or failure of a war, and players are not like the generals in Dynasty Warriors, who can count as thousands with one.

With one enemy against one hundred, this player can still take the lead through attributes and operations.

After all, this is just a game, but it has no effect on large-scale wars. In wars of tens of thousands or tens of thousands, all players can do is to keep the small scale from being defeated.

The war mode gameplay of these two games can be said to be very hard-core, and many manufacturers even feel that Tianhe Network may be out of play this time.

After all, today’s games focus on fast food, and players are not as patient as before. Just like the end of RTS, MMORPGs have added automatic pathfinding and teleportation systems. Everyone has already defaulted that players don’t like those complicated something.

For example, a famous realistic shooting game, Armed Assault.

Although it has a great reputation, in fact, there are not so many players in this game, and more are cloud players.

Because very few players can endure the slow pace, running the map for tens of minutes, or even more than an hour, and then study the wind direction and so on, and finally just to shoot a shot. In a few minutes, we will talk about the game of Armed Assault.

The two wars, on the other hand, completely showed the opposite, but the players seemed to be having a good time.

This makes people a little puzzled.

Of course, Chuhe is not clear about other people’s doubts.

If Chuhe knows, it’s just a smile.

Because these are only what the war two parts reveal on the surface.

Hardcore?

It is indeed very hardcore, but hardcore also brings enough freedom, so free that players can play however they want.

The powerful physics engine allows every detail to affect the success or failure of the war.

For example, laying an ambush in advance on the way the enemy is transporting grain and grass, using the rainy weather to dig tunnels and sneak into the local city, just like Guan Yu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, breaking the embankment to store water to flood the Seventh Army, it can also be useless in Tiandan When you are out of the fire bull formation, you are the first to use it.

Thanks to the excellent physical performance, these things can be realized in the game, it just depends on whether the player can understand it.

Don’t teach players how to play games. Players’ whimsy will always be more than you think.

This is something that all game producers should learn. You can tell players what the template of the game is like, and how to play it according to the normal gameplay.

But you can’t dictate to the players, that’s how the game should be played.

Just like the heroes in DOTA2 and League of Legends, you can tell players which heroes are late game, which heroes are mages, and which heroes are support.

But you can’t force players to accept what you’re telling them, like this hero is late game, you can’t use him as a support.

This hero can only be used as a support, you cannot use it as a mid laner.

This kind of mentally handicapped decision is definitely extremely bad for a game maker.

“The MOD community has been built, and several MOD studios have completed their works, and the built-in movie recording function has also been tested.” In the office, Ronier and Chuhe reported on the war The case of the two-part series.

“The test of the multiplayer mode has not been completed yet. I will release it together with the multiplayer mode in a few days. I have to go to the United States and France in a few days.” Chu He listened to Ronier’s words and nodded slightly .

Mods for the Battle of Helm’s Deep, Mods for the Battle of Assen’s Ferry, the Battle of Palennor Fields, and the Battle of Black Gate.

There are a total of four most well-known battles among the four Lord of the Rings. At the same time, Chuhe and the others intend to launch a large-scale plot MOD, which will make the plot in the Lord of the Rings into a MOD and provide it to players for free. It will be regarded as a free DLC.

After all, it is an IP authorization bought at a high price, and it cannot be wasted. Anyway, the contract signed with Warner was a MOD production authorization, and there is no regulation on what can be done and what cannot be done.

“No problem.” Hearing Chu He’s words, Ronier nodded.

Going to France and the United States, there is no doubt that Chuhe is going to find Ubisoft and EA.

This time, Chuhe intends to persuade them to play a relatively big one, such as the big linkage of its IP, just like Nintendo’s Super Smash Bros., just like Spike’s Jump Super Smash Bros.

But Chuhe didn’t want to make an ordinary fighting star fighting game, but Chuhe wanted to authorize the IP of their three games and add them to the two parts of the war series.

Although these two are basically 3A masterpieces on the assembly line, their well-known IPs are definitely known to players all over the world.

If their IP can be added to the two parts of the war series, it will definitely excite the players.

As for whether the other party is willing or not, Chuhe thinks that the possibility of the other party agreeing should be very high, which will not harm their interests.

As for some domestic copyrights, Chuhe had a tentative discussion before, and then he had no idea.

It’s completely the lion’s mouth, and the sequels are released every year. Beiruan, which is crazy about cutting leeks, although its swordsman legend is not good, but there are always a group of loyal fans who pay for the old feelings, although this feeling has gradually disappeared. , but it is undeniable that the Sword Fairy series is indeed a first-class IP in China.

Chuhe also revealed his intention to the other party before, but the other party broke out a sky-high price, which was not much different from the price offered by Warner’s Lord of the Rings.

Then this thought Chuhe went out, and the Lord of the Rings on Warner’s side issued such a number, mainly because many well-known MOD studios have already carried out this kind of MOD development, and at the same time, the IP of Lord of the Rings is better than that of swords. The fairy series is not at the same level at all.

If you want to say one million RMB, or two million RMB, and sell the entire series under the package, it is not impossible to consider.

But after you open it, you can directly exchange the following RMB into US dollars, why don’t you go to heaven?

I’m not like other domestic mobile game manufacturers, buying your IP to collect money to make mobile games.

Thinking of this, Chuhe couldn’t help shaking his head.

“However, if EA and Ubisoft are on the side, it’s better to ventilate in advance.” Chu He sat on the chair in the office, shook his legs back and forth, and then turned on the phone to contact Ibrahimovic and Wilson.

Arrange a time when all three of them are free, and they have a good chat about the feasibility of IP union.
