Rebirth of the Game Pioneer

Chapter 301: Project establishment, Gu Feng with full firepower

On October 10, the day after Gu Feng finished his class, Gu Feng convened a project meeting and a game called "League of Legends" officially entered the stage of history.

Regarding the general rules of the game, everyone has already heard it yesterday, not to say that they understand 100%, but at least they can understand % to %.

After class yesterday, many people had some private discussions about this game. Some people even went home and tried to redraw the picture according to Zhao Feng's deduction ideas while recalling it. Doing it themselves did bring benefits to them. Some new insights and inspirations.

What's interesting is that even though these people had watched Gu Feng's deduction with their own eyes, they still couldn't reproduce it in 15 minutes. They couldn't understand Gu Feng even more, and in the end they had no choice but to face reality. , maybe some people do have talents in some fields that are beyond the reach of ordinary people, so why should they worry about it.

Thinking back carefully, Gu Feng seemed to be born for games. The decisions he made in the past that seemed incomprehensible at first only proved one thing. In the field of games, he is the truth!
This game, which seems to have been created casually in 15 minutes, actually looks like Interstellar in many aspects in terms of gameplay, and there are also shadows of RTS in many settings. However, if you study carefully, you will find that it is distinct and different. It belongs to any type of game nowadays.

Could it be that after Dclike, Gu Feng will create a new game type?real or fake?
After yesterday's stimulation, Gu Feng said much more things at the meeting than yesterday and it was not so difficult to accept.

At first, everyone was mostly curious about this new game. They just thought it was a gimmick Gu Feng did in class. Although they knew how to make it, they would still make it, but it was not until they listened carefully at the meeting for a while that they In retrospect, Gu Feng's emphasis on this game seemed a little different from what they thought.

Most of the new people are numb at this time, but the old employees have been following Gu Feng for a year or two. Although Gu Feng is serious about the production of every game, people who are familiar with him can still You can see the difference in seriousness.

This is reflected in many aspects, such as demeanor, tone of voice, detail of work arrangements, repeated emphasis on details of game settings, etc.

Gu Feng's attitude made everyone quickly correct their attitude. If they were to evaluate it, this game does look interesting and attractive, and it is probably fun to play, but for a completely new type of game Game, that's all they can see, so at first they just regarded it as a groundbreaking competitive game, and they really didn't pay much attention to it.

But what they understand better is that Gu Feng's forward-looking vision is definitely much stronger than theirs. Judging from Gu Feng's attitude towards this game, this game seems to be better than "StarCraft", "Overwatch", " "Xianlu" and other companies' current hand-holding games are even worse.

It is a competitive game that is more powerful than StarCraft. Thinking of the exaggerated popularity of WCS, everyone feels thirsty. Is this possible?

It’s not that I don’t believe Gu Feng, after all, no matter how powerful StarCraft is, it was not created by him, but after all, this is just a game that was made in 15 minutes. This is where everyone’s entanglement comes from, designing a game notebook in 15 minutes. It's exaggerated enough. If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, as an expert, you will probably regard this matter as a pure joke. To create a game that surpassed "StarCraft" in 15 minutes, even if they were already used to believing before questioning any incomprehensible decision of Gu Feng, at this moment, they still couldn't help but put a big question mark in their hearts.

But it doesn't matter what they think. Gu Feng's attitude is what they get anyway, so the problem is very simple. Believe it or not, since Gu Feng values ​​"League of Legends" so much, then they don't mind giving "League of Legends" to them. "League of Legends" is treated as a game that can surpass "StarCraft". As for the results, we just have to wait and see.

The training courses for 1000 students are still continuing, with Wen Meng, Wang Chen, Niu Gan and even senior managers from various departments giving them lessons one after another.

Generally speaking, it is indeed rare for company executives to take turns giving training courses to school-recruited interns. However, after discussing with a group of senior executives, Gu Feng believed that the initial group of members recruited would become the backbone of the company in the future. There is no harm in paying attention to strength.

This is a good time for them to catch up. Although the second and third training courses in the future will still have the opportunity to be taught by Gu Feng and others in person, if the lecturer lineup wants to reach this level, then they want to Don't even think about it.

Gu Feng personally serves as the chief designer of "League of Legends". Generals Wen Meng and Wang Chen were not assigned other project tasks by him, but served as his deputies to help him share part of the work. In fact, from this point of view, What can give some clues is that it is just a PC game. With the current strength of the original intention, how would it be necessary to deploy such a lineup under normal circumstances?
What's even more confusing is that these two people really seem to be just helping Gu Feng. Even the tasks assigned to them must be approved by Gu Feng in the end.

For "League of Legends", Gu Feng personally leads almost every aspect of the game.

If another leader did this, the capable subordinates might think wildly, but the person who did this was Gu Feng, and everyone, including Wen Meng, was convinced from the bottom of their hearts.

Take one of the things for example. On the third day of the game project, the work of the art team was officially arranged. The first batch was nine heroes, including Pi City law enforcement officer Wei and Dafa. Home - Heimerdinger, Future Guardian - Jace, Rampant Lolita - Jinx, Alchemist Baron - Lenata, Mechanical Herald - Victor, Time Assassin - Ike, Alchemist - Synge Germany, Piltover policewoman - Caitlin.

Gu Feng actually thought about it carefully. Regarding art, he actually had the idea of ​​slowly letting go. After all, there is still a long way to go, and his original intention cannot always be to reproduce the familiar games in his mind and draw characters according to needs. It is the basic quality of an original artist. Being overly considerate may not be a good thing for their ability improvement and future development. Furthermore, who can say that the original version will definitely be better?
However, as everyone has felt, Gu Feng attaches great importance to "League of Legends" and he wants to achieve perfection in all details.

Therefore, Gu Feng still personally worked on the concept drafts for the first batch of nine heroes, but that was the end of the work. This was equivalent to setting a demonstration for them to understand what Gu Feng expected. There is a clear reference for the style of painting.

Now that the original character painter has the task, the work of character modeling, original scene painting, scene modeling, and special effects artists can naturally not be left behind.

The first task of the scene original painting is naturally Summoner's Rift.

The special effects of characters' normal attacks, skills, defense tower attacks and even the divination flowers are undoubtedly the work of special effects artists.

There isn't much to do on the modeling side for now, so they can look at the original painting and think more about it. Once the original painting is finalized, their work will follow.

If that's the case, it's not an exaggeration to say that this happened to Gu Feng, but it's not over yet. In addition to these original paintings, the effects and values ​​of the first batch of 9 heroes' passives and 4 skills, Gu Feng has also It was listed clearly, and in order to make it easier for them to understand, Gu Feng described in detail the positioning of these heroes in the game, what they should do in early laning, what skills are needed to cast skills, and what they need to do when playing in a group. , the lifelike appearance was as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

After saying that, Wen Meng and the others were still suspicious of life like ignorant little cuties. Gu Feng said, "Go and do your own business. I'll go to the animation department and get two sub-shots. Let's give it to you first." "Look at them," leaving them in the same position as woodcarvings, at a loss what to do.

As the chief designer, Gu Feng has done the design work that designers should do, he has done the art work, he has done the numerical work, and even the game has just been approved, and he has already started working on the animation, and this!It was like Gu Feng was at full strength.

Facing such a leader, who would have the slightest unconvinced emotion? Instead of thinking about what is there and what is not, it is better to take this opportunity to watch and learn. As long as you can learn to % of Gu Feng's skills, there is Isn’t it easy to beat the level of a textbook writer?You can't learn these things from books...
