Chapter 819: How to transplant MOBA games?

Blamebreaker ...... Ah, no, it's Sen Xiajun, after learning about the development of things, his face is very vivid. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Yes, the supervisor and the original work are celebrities, and the character design and production have also spent a lot of money, if you look at it this way, in case this work is tragic, in the end, the man who carries the pot can probably only be Senxia.

Throwing the pot and carrying the pot are the traditions of Japanese culture, and if you don't accept it, don't play.

As the youngest industry insider in age and seniority, Senxia doesn't take the blame, who will?

"Okay, this pot, I carried it. ”

In the end, Senxia could only roll his eyes like this and complain weakly.

After all, there is no way to do it.

"But it's really interesting to see what kind of things Inspector Oshii will make......

Qianjia is more curious about another aspect.

"Well...... At least the quality is guaranteed, probably. ”

Not to mention,After the texture of Shinji、Asuka and Lingbo Li in the original book have been improved,The overall picture,It does have a realistic and profound feeling.,If there's an excellent color designation.,The final product.,At least in terms of color and atmosphere,It's quite able to realize Mamoru Oshii's personal style.。

As for what kind of things can be made in the end......

If this is the case, Senxia is not sure.

"Nana, Sen Xiajun, you can take advantage of the time now, come and help me sort out the things here, I have a headache now." ”

After Senxia finished complaining about the matter, Qianjia talked about another thing.

"What's the matter?"

Mori Xia also made a decision at this time, let him play how he should play, anyway, it doesn't have a lot to do with his side.

As for what will happen in the end, Mori Xia can only say that the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge.

After asking questions from Qianjia's side, Senxia simply turned his head and looked at Qianjia's side.

"It's about Hero's Tracks. Do you have any thoughts on the transplantation of this work to DC, Mori Natsu-kun?"

"Brave New World" aside, let's not talk about whether this game is a gentleman's game or not, but from the fact that the development of this game is still in progress, we know that even if this thing really wants to be ported to DC, it is really early.

On the contrary, Hero's Trail is a game that has been developed and is basically one of the most powerful and popular Internet games of our time - although not many people play online these days.

How can such a game, which focuses on the DC of the network system, not be eye-catching?

"It's strange, I remember that 'before' DC didn't seem to be very keen on the Internet......" After hearing Qianjia's words, Mori Xia thought of the DC in the original history.

Although the "original DC" also has a network system, it doesn't seem to have a supporting strategy for it, and even the Internet game, the most famous is only one "Phantasy Star".

But after the comparison, Senxia suddenly noticed something different.

The network interface used by the DCs of this world is not a dial-up network for modems, but a broadband network.

Broadband networks are more efficient, but they are also more expensive – a no-brainer of the fact that DCs in this world are more expensive than the original. What's more, in order to provide good network interaction, the DC of this world has also added an additional coprocessor dedicated to managing network and voice.

Since it is equipped with such a good network system, if Sega still abandons this system, then Senxia can only say, where did it come from, where to go......

Sega isn't stupid, and as it stands, online games are niche - but they make money!

Aside from the special case of "Hero's Track", on the current Internet, almost all online games cost money, and the concept of "free online games" is not very mature until now.

For example, let's say there are two games, one of which is a single-player game and the other is an online game.

The sales volume of single-player games is 200,000 copies, while the number of long-term online users of online games is 100,000, and the average monthly consumption of online games is one-fifth of that of single-player games.

In the short term, the sales and number of single-player games are obviously higher.

However, when the time reaches five months, the amount of the two sides will be about the same, and when the time reaches 10 months, the advantage of the latter begins to appear.

Although in the real world, there are various network and server costs, but in general, Internet games have higher online rates and loyalty rates - in fact, because the Internet is already niche in these days - Sega wants to tap into this market at this time, and it is of course.

"We've been in meetings for three days now, and we're just talking about how to make the game Hero Trajectory a proper console game. ”

If it's another game, it's fine, even if it's a game like FPS, it can even run on the console, but the MOBA game wants to perform well on the console...... This kind of thing is not very easy.

After all, this kind of game is really not suitable for the console environment in terms of control feel.

"Unless DC can ration this gaming mouse and keyboard, otherwise, I think it will be really difficult for our work to sell on DC. Senxia shook her head.

"Well, we have also discussed the relevant plan before, and the conclusion is similar to that of Sen Xia-kun on your side. Qianjia shrugged, "So, we thought about the new control mode later." ”

"How did you do that?"

Hearing Senxia's question, Qianjia told Senxia about the situation they discussed.

In the past three days of discussion, in fact, the production team has almost thought about some of the means of porting this game.

At the end, everyone came up with the idea of using a joystick to control the character's actions, and then using the keys to control the attacks and skills.

Through the combination of buttons, attacks and skills, this can be achieved, but there is still a problem in this, that is, the game that is combined in this way, the controllability will be greatly reduced, especially the skills can only be cast in the direction of the player, and the directional skills are not realized, which is also a very tragic thing.

"Use the left button to switch units, and the right button and attack to form an ultimate...... "Mori Xia muttered, "It's true that there is no problem with full functionality, but if you go further, it won't work." ”

On PC, Hero's Trail is a competitive game, but on home consoles, it's just a casual game.

"Well, that's probably it, because on DC, we can't think of a better way to express it. ”

This is the best solution they can think of.

"Of course, there are other ways to solve this problem, the simplest is to introduce a dedicated handle. But in that case, the game will still be troublesome, and it is better to go straight to the mouse and keyboard. Qianjia expressed helplessness about this.

While porting is a good idea, MOBA games really can't be messed up.

This kind of game is completely incompatible with the radio waves of home consoles.

Senxia has thought about many solutions before, but no matter what the method, the result is not successful, and there is always only one best solution, which is to add a mouse and keyboard to the machine.

Adding a mouse and keyboard or something, although it sounds outrageous, but if you want to let your home console play MOBA, this is the best solution.

If it's 3D, it's actually okay, as long as you completely break away from RTS games, and then play from an RPG-like perspective, in fact, it's okay to make this kind of game.

If someone brings a game like Dark Souls or Bloodborne to the MOBA battlefield and says it's a "MOBA" game, it's okay.

However, this example is a little inappropriate, and it seems better to use the Dynasty Warriors series to illustrate it.

But Sen Xia thought about it, it seems that a game like Dark Souls is really made into a MOBA, and it seems to be quite emotional, and the thought of everyone having to be taught to be a human being by the little soldiers countless times, I feel a little excited to think about it......

Ahem, well, the real problem is that the machine on Senxia's side is completely underperforming, and that's the problem.

Moreover, that type of MOBA is not a game mode like Senxia, which is equivalent to saying that Senxia needs to remake a game here.

For now, that's absolutely impossible - this kind of game, on the home console, is definitely more difficult to recoup, it is one thing to make it, and it is another thing to sell it or not.

Of course, there is another solution, which is to use a touch screen to play games like the glory of a certain king on a mobile phone.

But in that case...... It's really better to get a keyboard and mouse.

"At the end of the day, if Sega was willing to give the DC a keyboard and mouse, the game would be saved, but I don't think Sega would have that kind of idea. Equipping home computers with keyboards and mice or something -- why doesn't Sega make a PC?"

If Sega really hurts enough to make a keyboard and mouse, Senxia thinks they might as well move Sega from the living room to the table - as far as the core players in the world are concerned, there are obviously more players on the table.

To be honest, Senxia thinks that even if 3DS is used to play MOBA games, it is more reliable than home computers.

After complaining about this side of the matter, Senxia suddenly felt that the game "Brave New World" seemed to be quite reliable if it was on DC.

"Now, senior sister, have you discussed anything about the brave new world?"

Senxia thought about this.

"In this case, the main reason is that the gentleman's content is not easy to do, but our characteristic is that in the gentleman's side, if you remove this content, although there is a lot of content in the game, but we have not made it perfect for the time being. ”

After all, it's a gentleman-oriented game.,Theoretically,This word game,,It's possible to expand a variety of content.,But that's just theoretical.,If you want to start from the actual situation.,Senxia's content,It's still a very significant revision and modification.。

At least for now, it's a troublesome affair.

"Our game is now testable, but in terms of the game itself, it's still an unfinished game, so it's a hassle to make. ”

The reason why Senxia and they can now go online for testing is actually because Senxia is making an online game, and because it is an online game, this game can still be made slowly, and even various improvements and adjustments can be made according to the feedback of players, and even players can be recruited to assist in making games by themselves.

This experience,Senxia is not based on a large game.,It's based on some other fangames and mods.。

For example, the "Nobita Nobita's Resident Evil" series, in this series, after the original version appeared, various modified versions were derived. And in game systems such as the Elder Scrolls series that have mods that can be extended, after an interesting mod is made, there will also be people who make a bunch of brainy works based on this mod, such as a certain laboratory, a certain laboratory, and a certain laboratory...... Well, there are other aspects such as a private device, a demand device, and so on......

In "The Guilty Crown" on Senxia's side, this phenomenon is also present.

It can even be said that it is precisely because of "The Guilty Crown" that Sen Xia dares to play like this.

It's because he knows that everyone likes this kind of thing that Mori Xia thought of asking everyone to make this game together.

As far as the effect of the game itself is concerned, Mori Xia thinks it is great.

However, if the game is to be put on a home console, it will be a different story.

On PC, it's okay to add games at will, but on home consoles, what are we going to do here?

You can't just mess around, right? And there's a lot of player-made content in the game, so what about this kind of thing?

Senxia also considered porting "Guilty Crown" to Sony's PS2, but in the end, they rejected the mod plan, although Sega can put mods and other content, but it needs to be reviewed, if it's an online game, if it is not a full version, if it is on it, and then all kinds of card reviews are enough for Senxia's side.

"Then how are you going to reply to Sega?"

Senxia is not interested in the transplantation of this game, so it mainly depends on Qianjia's attitude.

"But Sega really wants an Internet game that can be put on DC right now, and although they have already started to develop it, as it stands, it won't be completed until at least next year. Qianjia shook her head.

"Wait a minute, speaking of internet games...... Isn't Brother Pony doing it over there?"

Mori Xia almost forgot the game that Pony was doing......

……

Today's festival, a two-in-one chapter.

To complain, I had a terrible dream today

The big boss Salem was not satisfied, so he withdrew us all, and then, he invited a group of Vietnamese monkeys...... Well, it's a real monkey.

Then all of our screenwriters went on a business trip to Vietnam to look for monkeys, and they all became gold medal HR

Then I discovered an even more terrifying truth: it turned out that all the famous writers, including Tomato Sam Shao, turned out to be monkeys imported from Vietnam...... (To be continued.) )
