Rebirth of the Game Pioneer

Chapter 190 The e-sports industry begins to sprout

After TBG ended, the game that gained the most benefit was not "StarCraft", which won the best game of the year, but "Dancing Line", which took the opportunity to run a wave of advertising.

After that day, "Dancing Line" once again welcomed a surge of new users around the world, with the peak number of daily active players directly exceeding the 4000 million mark.

How terrifying is this?You must know that a game's monthly active users exceed 4000 million, which is already a very good achievement. Before that, daily active users exceeded 4000 million, which was simply something that people could not even think of.

All the well-known game media around the world have praised Dancing Line, directly regarded "Dancing Line" as the most precious and beautiful treasure in the gaming industry, and evaluated it as a work of art that truly transcends national boundaries and ignores cultural differences.

Domestically, Dance Line has also enjoyed a second spring. After winning the Best Cultural Output Award, Dance Line frequently appeared in heavyweight media such as xx Daily. This has made many people who do not play games but like music also know this. games.

The exquisite graphics, melodious music, and strong curiosity drove them to download the game. In just 5 minutes, they were completely addicted to the two beginner levels of Time and Piano.

The dance line is very popular here, and "StarCraft" and "Dyson Sphere Project" are not weak either.

In "Dyson Sphere Project", Wen Liang's series of strategy videos are becoming more and more famous. Although there are many other strategy videos, Wen Liang relies on his faster, more professional, more hard-core, and more nanny-level teaching videos to win the title of "Dyson Sphere Project". "Plan" already has an authoritative status in this circle.

The fans who followed him have exceeded 50 in less than ten days from the initial single digits.

You must know that "Dyson Ball Project" is excellent, but because it takes time and is too hard-core to play, it is easy to cause cerebral hemorrhage and high blood pressure. There may only be so many players in China who can really play for a long time.

The popularity of the video gave Wen Liang a real taste of the sweetness. He didn't expect that his temporary attempt would actually be successful. With the number of fans he has accumulated now, even if the subsequent "Dyson Sphere Project" strategy video is almost done, by the time If you change to a new game and continue working on the guide, there will definitely still be a lot of people watching.

It can be said that as long as his subsequent strategy videos can maintain the current quality, there is already a bright road ahead.

In addition to Wen Liang, those who are proud of the success are also the masters of the "StarCraft" World Championship.

After the end of WCS, various news about "StarCraft" broke out one after another. From time to time, you can hear that a certain player with a certain WCS ranking was signed as a spokesperson for a certain product of a certain group.

However, this is not a big news. The real big news is that on February 2, shoe brand giant Shoehao suddenly announced the establishment of an e-sports club. The club’s name is Lingyun, or its English abbreviation is LYG. At the same time, on the same day, the club It was officially announced that Dog officially joined LYG with an annual salary of 20.

As soon as this news came out, before the masses could digest it, several giants from various industries successively announced the establishment of e-sports clubs. For example, Taotao, the e-commerce giant in Shanghai, signed Milk and White; An acquaintance, Chuangshi from Shudu, signed Tudou; for example, from Wudu...

However, the most exciting thing is 20 Dimension, which is 2.5 minutes away from the original intention. 2.5 Dimension also established an e-sports club called Chixiao, abbreviated as CX, and the players they signed were WCS champion and third place runner-up VV and Sky. The craze for club establishment reached its peak.

Any company that can become a giant is not a fool. The unlimited development prospects of e-sports have attracted many people's attention.

The birth of the first batch of formal e-sports clubs also means that the domestic e-sports industry has finally begun to sprout. It can be expected that within two years, more and more formal e-sports events will be held one after another.

Not only that, foreign companies also have such a vision. E-sports clubs are being established one after another around the world, and players who have shined in the WCS have been acquired by major new clubs with huge sums of money.

The first WCS has just ended less than a month ago, and everyone is already gearing up for the second WCS, which has yet to be announced.

The newly established club is not too busy yet, and Nie Tian and Han Xiaowei still have time to play in Chuxin on weekends.

After this wave of collective establishment of clubs, life once again returned to calm.

The two original games are moving forward step by step, and everything is peaceful as time goes by.

Before I knew it, more than a month had passed and it was the end of March.

During this time, everyone discovered that Gu Feng liked to wear a pair of handsome and unassuming glasses in the company.

At the same time, nearly one-fifth of the people in the company had job changes. These job changes were all adjustments made by Gu Feng after he found him and communicated with him personally. Employees who have changed feel that they are more comfortable working in the new position, and their work efficiency is obviously much higher than in the original position.

Therefore, during this period, Gu Feng gained another comment in the hearts of his employees: he has a sharp eye and knows how to make good use of people!
After more than a month, "Pokémon Battle Chess" has been tested for the eighth alpha version. Because of sufficient manpower, the development work of "Pokémon Battle Chess" was completed as early as three weeks ago. The reason why the test lasted for three Zhoudu has not yet been officially launched for testing in the experience store because the balance of the game has not been able to satisfy Gu Feng.

Although before doing it, Gu Feng also expected that it would be difficult to balance the game, but after actually getting started, he found that the difficulty was much more difficult than he expected.

Compared with "Plants vs. Zombies", there are too many factors that affect the balance of Auto Chess.

Take basic attributes as an example. A plant has only two attributes, namely attack power and attack speed. In "Pokémon Battle Chess", a single card has multiple attributes, including health, upper limit of mana, and initial mana. , attack power, spell power, armor, magic resistance, attack speed, critical strike rate, critical strike damage, dodge rate, movement speed, range, and skill value.

In addition, there are various aspects that affect the balance of the game, such as bond strength, skill mechanism, equipment value, equipment mechanism, lineup strength, etc.

In the game, the lineup generates and restrains each other. Often, changing a Pokémon can easily affect the whole body. Because the weakening of a Pokémon will inevitably lead to a decline in the strength of the lineup built with this Pokémon as the core. If the strength Too much decline will inevitably cause the lineup's restrained lineup to lose its natural enemy and become a cancer in the new version.

In other words, the imbalance in the strength of each lineup in the game will never involve the balance adjustment of a certain Pokémon or bond, but will very likely involve the adjustment of a large number of bonds and Pokémon strength.

Therefore, even though the closed beta has been revised seven times and even two bottles of travel cocktails were consumed, the game will still continue its eighth closed beta.

However, although "Pokémon Battle Chess" has encountered a bottleneck, "Bubble Hall" on the other side is progressing very smoothly.

Wen Meng has long understood how to use the power of the team to improve efficiency, so when she was busy with the tasks of "Pokémon Battle Chess" in the early stage, she first slowly wrote the game program.

After the development tasks of "Pokémon Battle Chess" came to an end and almost all tasks were handed over for testing, she directly asked her friends from the art team and music team to help complete the art and music work.

On March 3, in the last two days before the end of the month, "Bubble Hall" finally completed the final finishing work.
