In China, the development of Xianxia stories is quite bumpy, it is only a branch of martial arts novels, Zhiwei ghosts and gods, Journey to the West, Romance of the Gods, Jigong and other gods and demons novels are the predecessors of Xianxia novels, and many of the ideas of Xianxia novels come from various myths and legends.

Popular martial arts novels were developed in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, and that special period of history determined the popularity of martial arts and chivalry, which represented the rise of traditional Chinese culture, and the "Legend of Shushan Swordsman" by the lord of Huanzhu Mansion can be said to be the pioneering work of Chinese Xianxia Xiuzhen novels, and in later generations, countless Shushan versions were extended, almost covering all the content of Xianxia Xiuzhen.

For a period of time after the founding of the People's Republic of China, martial arts were almost extinct in China, and only a few people in Hong Kong and Taiwan were still insisting on creating.

Until the 80s, the great man opened the country, and all walks of life should reform and open up, and the ideas should also absorb the strengths of hundreds of schools.

The imagination of the Chinese has collided fiercely with the culture imported from the outside world, the martial arts in the mainland have begun to rise, the adaptation of the Shushan homologous game "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" has been a great success, and the popularity of the fairy cultivation online novels such as "Immortal", "Buddha is the Way" and "Ethereal Journey" shows that they are also excellent works that adapt to the trend.

Yang Yun was confined at home alone to write the game script, and he decided to use the improved version of "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" as Longteng's first online game, which can also be said to be a trial product.

The most important reason why he chose "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" is the huge setting of the cultivation world in the book, not to mention the cultivation level, which is very detailed and tightly divided. The world in which Old Demon Han is located is even more huge and breathtaking, and all races are exaggerated. There must be hundreds of tribes, and the number of heavenly and earthly treasures is innumerable. All kinds of resources are completely balanced with the outside world, and its great openness is what Yang Yun values most.

"I want this World Realm, not Han Li's growth record. Players don't have to play Han Li, the disciples of the Moon Occultation Sect, Yellow Wind Valley, and Spirit Beast Mountain can also embark on the road to becoming immortals. and so on to open the inner star sea, the outer star sea, the Great Jin, and the spirit world. The new version can add endless races and sects, and if there is a chance, I will open up the races of the demon world. ”

"Blood Trial, Void Heaven Temple, Falling Demon Valley, Kunwu Mountain, Guanghan Realm, Demon Source Sea, Mother of Moths. Tianding Palace, these large and small copies, can release an important large expansion piece every three years and five years, and launch small copies on important anniversaries every year. In this way, when the True Immortal Realm is opened, it will be ten years later. ”

"I want to upgrade to a level in three days with domestic games, and learn exercises in five days. The setting of blindly pursuing the level is different, and it is necessary to make a setting that the character will be eliminated if he does not work hard. Players can be killed. You can also have ordinary birth, old age, sickness and death, if you don't want to embark on the road to becoming an immortal. Ordinary players can also mix comfortably, explore, do business, change to various life occupations, and be a leisurely person. ”

"The power of the nation, the differences of race, the sect factions, the trade unions, there needs to be a big law to plan all this, but each small group can have its own unique characteristics. The ideology of respecting the strong is the mainstream, but I can't blindly ignore the protection system for the weak and indulge in bullying the weak. ”

"There are also large-scale all-server events held every once in a while, Beast Tide, Demon Dao Invasion, Ancient Demons, as long as our servers can support powerful computing, it's not impossible."

Yang Yun thought a lot, the world of "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" is a very good carrier, there are orthodox immortals in Shushan, there are Western-like methods of mages, there are mysterious sects that cultivate ghosts, and even "full of fighting energy" Refining Dou Sheng, there is nothing unexpected, only what cannot be done, Yang Yun has many ideas, but most of them cannot be realized.

Given the poor coverage and snail-slow speed of the domestic network, Yang Yun's first online game could only be described as rudimentary in his own opinion, and he decided to use the form of real-time combat instead of the turn-based games he knew about Ludao.

However, in this era of poverty and whiteness, these settings are still quite amazing, Liu Cixing, Huang Qingbo, Miao Jianhua and others in the Longteng script editing department, Zhang Guoqiang, Ma Liang, and Inoue Yanxiong in the game development department can't understand Yang Yun's story.

"Immortal Road: Immortal Ascension Order?" And they were all puzzled.

Immortal Road, which must be the name of the game, tells the player that this is the world of Xianxia, and the player has to take a bumpy road to becoming an immortal.

The Immortal Ascension Order is naturally the first version, but what does this mean?

Yang Yun didn't explain first, but asked Inoue Yanxiong: "Lao Jing, the real-time battle online game with 2D interface, have you tested the minimum requirements for network and computer configuration?" ”

Inoue replied, "Yes, we recommend that the modem communication rate be at least 14.4Kbps, so that it can interact with our servers installed abroad relatively smoothly, which is limited to word processing. For graphical game interactions, we tested the North American server for 28.9Kbps, while the Australian server required at least 56Kbps. ”

Yang Yun listened to a black line, this request is too outrageous!

In 1996, the latest telephone dial-up modem was only 56K, the vast majority of cats on the market only support 14.4K, slightly better enterprise units or postal and telecommunications counterparts will have 28.9Kbps cats, 56K cats were developed by the Americans, a cat sold for as much as $25, this price is not at all Chinese can afford.

56K cat's real download speed is only about 5K,28.9K is almost 3K,It's enough for everyone to play the text MUD of "Chivalry Travel",Or log in to LongChat to chat with friends,Or enter the local portal forum to chat with the girl,Who would dare to spend 300 yuan to buy a 56K cat with little effect?

"Isn't this a death sentence for ordinary netizens in my country to play online games?" Yang Yun smiled bitterly and asked, "This sounds like I applied for that advertising slogan, and I ended it before you started......"

Fortunately, no one understood the connotation of this sentence, and Inoue Yanxiong said with some regret: "That's it, so we think that due to the limitations of the network and computer hardware, it is best to use turn-based combat in "Immortal Road: Ascension Order", or simply make a text version first, and then make graphics after the general environment is better in the future." ”

Yang Yun waved his hand: "I resolutely refuse, turn-based games you can toss by yourself, I will never personally design turn-based online games, for me personally, I think things that can be done with real-time combat, I never like to use turn-based processing." Do you think I'm a person who likes to fry cold rice in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy"? ”

Everyone was relieved, in fact, under the influence of Yang Yun's personality, a large part of Longteng likes smooth real-time games, although there are fans and diehards of turn-based games, but not many.

Seeing that Yang Yun did not adopt this opinion, Inoue Yanxiong had no choice but to discuss with Zhang Guoqiang and a few others, and they often discussed technical issues together, sometimes involving hardware, and would consult experts from Fang Jindong and Tsinghua University, Chinese Academy of Sciences and other institutions.

Yang Yun was a little depressed, and if he wanted to force all players to change the 56K cat, new computer users might buy it all at once, but the old players must be a little resistant.

Finally, Inoue Yanxiong concluded: "If we simplify the battle scene to a certain extent, reduce the plot generated at the same time on the same screen, reduce the number of monsters refreshed on the same screen at the same time, and reduce the graphic pixels of various buildings and decorations, 28.9K can barely do the job, of course, this is only for the network environment in Chinese mainland." ”

"Less......"

Yang Yun touched his chin and thought about it, in this case, it is very likely that the low-level disciple miscellaneous room in Huang Feng Valley may become the exact same building shape in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", and what Fang City, Secret City, the headquarters of all forces, and the neutral city guarded by all forces, I am afraid that they will all be the same, and the overall environment will be destroyed.

There is also a simplification of the battle scene, he has already thought of those stupid actions, when PK, everyone goes up is a three-plate axe, and then either one move does not issue a card machine and waits for death, or one and a half moves have no technical content, but it looks the same.

Forget that, let's make the game first!

Yang Yun nodded: "Don't worry, now we only support 56K cats in China, but I believe that it won't take a year or two for players to take the initiative to choose 56K cats. ”

Inoue Yanxiong should come down, he didn't object, anyway, the research and development time of this "Immortal Road: Ascension Order" online game is close to a year, with Yang Yun's speed and the consistent habits of Longteng's R&D department, maybe it will be made in half a year, even if it is late, a delay of three months will inevitably produce results, Longteng's R&D efficiency is so efficient and metamorphosed, who can say what will happen in a year?

"Mr. Yang, can you tell us the story behind this?" Liu Cixing pushed his glasses, a little embarrassed.

Yang Yun suddenly realized: "I said why don't you ask me about the details one by one, you only care about your fame and prestige." "Immortal Road: Ascension Order" I think so......"

The story of Qingniu Town is the novice village, Han Li, or Zhang San, Li Si, Sun Er, these people, they need to complete the tasks assigned by the town, each has an adventure, after having rich experience, after obtaining the start-up capital of the immortal cultivation world, in order to compete for the immortal ascension order, a series of stories that happened to the players.

The point is, of course, to compete for the Immortal Ascension Order! (To be continued......)
