"But freehand is freehand, after all, it is an action game, and the character model must be a high-model, and it is not too much to engage in hundreds of thousands of faces."

Zhuge Yuan gasped, "This...... Today's machines, I'm afraid that only the best graphics cards and processors can be driven, right? ”

Liu Neng said, "What are you afraid of? You make this game, at least a year, this is still a conservative estimate, you have the ability to make it before the end of this year! Who knows what the configuration of the computer will look like next year? ”

"The truth is indeed this truth...... Zhuge Yuan was speechless for a moment, and he didn't expect to be defeated.

"You all know what I just said, wow? Go back and re-work on the design plan, then send it to me to read it again, and it's okay to start working on it. In addition, this game is mainly aimed at the domestic and Japanese markets, remember to do Japanese localization, do it together, and don't find someone to translate it at that time. ”

"Huh? The Japanese market? Zhang Yueyang was also a little incredible, "Boss, take a smaller step." Japan is a big game country, and it is difficult to beat it head-on. ”

"Try it, there's nothing to lose anyway, maybe it's done?" He smiled mysteriously and declared the meeting over.

After the matter in Guanghua City was over, he flew back to Shanghai.

The registration of Dota's domestic professional league has officially begun, and in just half a month, more than 2,000 teams, that is, more than 10,000 people have registered. This is definitely a very cowish number, even Liu Neng finds it incredible.

Suddenly there are so many professional players in the country?

Of course, it is impossible for all of them to be professional gamers, most of them just want to sign up for a game, or they are overconfident in their own level. The vast majority of these people who signed up are people who can climb to the top two or three hundred on the ladder on various battle platforms, and there is some truth to their self-confidence.

Now those battle platforms,In fact, there are some problems with the statistics of the player's victory and defeat.,The ladder is relatively entertaining.,A lot of masters don't play on it.,Otherwise, it's crushing the situation.。 It's not much of a point to pit pros and amateurs against each other.

In addition, the registration fee is actually very low, symbolically charging 20 yuan per person, and only 100 yuan is required for a team to sign up.

For the total number of players who participated in the registration, all the registration fees added together were only 200,000. Now the Dota Pro League is only in the registration stage, and it has already spent more than a million, and there will be a time when the money will be spent like water in the future.

The twenty yuan registration word is actually just the simplest screening mechanism to screen out those players who join in the fun.

The deadline for registration is at the end of February, and there is a half-month registration period.

After Xie Chunjiao joined, let her take full responsibility for this matter, and Li Lizhen assisted, and Happy Network also dispatched some employees to cooperate, after all, this time it is still the title of "Happy Network".

After this wave of cooperation, now Happy Network was the largest SNS social networking site in China at the end of last year, from building a website from scratch to the first in the subdivision, Wan Binglin spent a year and a half. But he felt that if it weren't for Liu Neng's help, Happy would never have had the slightest chance to win the old friend network in this user war.

Because after the Zhiming Publishing Company specialized in the operation of the event, Liu Neng gave Lin Haixia a new task - to develop Dota 2.

Now the attitude of the storm company is unclear, but Abel is right, for Dota, even if there is an independent e-sports event, it is still just a game map under the "Warcraft 2" client, this problem does not end, and it is easy to have problems in the future.

simply take advantage of the time when the event operation is separated from Fenghua Studio, let them focus on doing DOTA, and do it in the fastest time. It's almost impossible to use standalone Dota 2 for this year's event, and hopefully next year, Dota 2 will be used instead of a map.

It's easier said than done.

It's not the same thing as making a map at all, it's a complete game. There are various game engines and basic programs involved, and you need to start from scratch. To this end, Liu can let Master Lu temporarily play two roles, and the Unity game engine will do it; A smaller engine group was also organized to cooperate with Fenghua Game Studio to do basic development.

But it's relatively okay, now Unity has been commercialized, that is to say, the degree of completion is already very good, the development content of the first version is nearing the end, and the subsequent version updates can be put back in the construction period, and the organization of people to build the infrastructure of Dota 2 as soon as possible, and the development is on the right track.

About half a month later, Abel came back after leaving Huaxia, saying that he had persuaded several other partners in the company to agree to Liu Neng's request.

Liu Neng made another trip to the United States and established a new company, "Riot Games", whose main business is to do the operation of dota e-sports events and the localization of dota. This trip, Liu Neng stayed a little longer, inspected Abel's company, and then returned to China.

As soon as I returned home, I got a not-so-good news - Tempest forbade other companies from using Warcraft 2 to run events without a license.

That is, Dota cannot be used to run game events.

This is very discouraging news.

After Liu Neng found out, he almost didn't stay in China, and went to California again. For this kind of thing, these people under him have no experience in dealing with it at all, and they can't help. Li Lizhen originally planned to come with her, but he refused. Before going to the United States again, he contacted Abel and talked about it in general.

Abel knew about it in advance and invited him to talk in detail when he arrived in the United States.

Liu Neng went to New York, stayed for one night, and went directly to find Abel. "It's a trick up the sleeve by Tempest to keep you from competing with them, and it's tricky right now." Abel said straight to the point.

His personality is similar to Liu Neng, he has something to say, and rarely wastes time on nonsense and indifferent things.

"Do you have any constructive suggestions? I haven't dealt much with you Americans before, aren't you the most contract-minded? I remember that in the user agreement of Warcraft 2, players were even allowed to use self-made maps to make money, why were they not allowed to use maps for esports events? ”

"One yard is one yard, theoretically the agreement does not write that it is allowed to hold e-sports events, that is, it is no problem for you to sell this map for money, but it is not possible to use it for e-sports."

"What the is ......" Liu Neng reported a foul language, in Chinese, Abel was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know how to speak English and suddenly popped out a word he didn't understand, "What did you say?" ”
