Game design: Players were moved to tears.

Chapter 141 Absolute decision-making power
After playing the first game, Liu Wei started several new games.

As a result, after five games, I won one game.

He won that round because there were more rookies on the other side than his own.

Looking at "Victory" on the screen, Liu Wei stepped back, his eyes dull.

"Finally...won."

"No wonder the game is not good, the operation is not good, the balance is not good, and even the reporting system is stretched."

After playing a few games, Liu Wei felt that the game "ioi" was the same as the "lol" before s5, which was still a version with extremely poor balance.

If you want to explode, you must repair three points.

First of all, we need to change from the buyout system to free play plus skin value-added services.

First, the free experience will reduce entry demand and increase the influx of new players.

Moreover, skin value-added services are also beneficial to future profits.

Secondly, cancel the rune system and redo the talent system.

Now the talent system of "ioi" is quite special, in order to encourage players to stay in this game for a long time.

"ioi" requires upgrading to obtain talent points. The first thirty points can fill up the talent tree.

After the talent tree is full, you can get an additional talent point each time you upgrade, which can be used to increase the character's health.

It is often easy to see the same hero in the game, and the novice has two to three hundred less health than the veteran.

The last and most important point is to improve the reporting mechanism.

After all, no matter what the game is, new players are always limited, and ensuring old players is fundamental.

……

Three days later, Liu Wei received an official invitation letter from "ioi". At the same time, "ioi" also announced the news on Weibo.

As soon as this news came out, countless media, designers and players rushed to forward and comment.

"Here, is it true or not, now Liu Wei has become the chief designer of "ioi"?"

"Look at the official announcement, not only the chief designer, but also the person in charge of the Asian region."

"That's cool, that's cool. I'm going to download it and try it out right away."

"Upstairs, take my advice and don't go there. I spent 129 on it when it first came out. I have been playing it on and off for a year. I can only say that it is very unfriendly to new players."

"Although I really want to support it, the price of 129 is a bit expensive, and I don't like moba games, so I'll forget it this time."

"Just take a look and that's it."

"A player who has been playing "ioi" for two and a half years reported that this game is rotten to the core and there is no way to save it unless it is redone, and it is a very big redo."

Although Liu Wei's role as the chief designer of "ioi" is praised online, the game "ioi" is not so optimistic, and there is even a tendency to pessimize it.

"ioi" is like "pubg" in the previous life. It was very popular for a while, but due to various brain-dead operations of the operation, it withdrew from the stage of first-line games.

……

On the other hand, experience the store.

Liu Wei was sitting in front of the computer. On the screen was a classic Western man's face.

"It's not going to work, there's no way we're going to redo it without trying anything."

On the screen is the president of Riot Games, Tamil.

Liu Wei couldn't help but frown after hearing Taimuer's answer.

Just now, he proposed to the opposite party his idea and concept of redoing "ioi", but was ruthlessly rejected by the opposite party.

But Liu Wei also understood.

"ioi" is now like a dying old man, dying but still holding his breath.

Except for Liu Wei, no one can guarantee what the outcome of "ioi" will be after this redo.

Whether to return to the peak of his prime or to lie directly in the coffin.

Liu Wei pursed his lips and said: "Otherwise, I will redo it in China first. If the effect is good, we will redo it in a big way. If it doesn't work, then we will talk about it later."

Tamil began to think.

Liu Wei showed a confident smile on his face.Tamilians will definitely agree. Although "ioi" has a large domestic audience, its daily activity is too low.

Even if the national server is redone, it will not affect the overall situation.

Moreover, the situation in the national server is like a mess, with a large size and low daily income, and whoever encounters it will be unlucky.

If the redo is done, it will be fine, but if the redo fails, then you will face overwhelming criticism.

really.

In less than half a minute, a response came from the other end of Tamil: "Yes, but if something goes wrong, you are solely responsible."

Liu Wei agreed, but also put forward his own conditions:
"No problem, but you have no right to interfere with all my decisions."

Hearing this, Tamil's face on the screen was stunned for a moment, and then he burst out laughing:
"Oh, no problem, my dear friend."

"We just want to make money, and if you can guarantee that we will make money, we will have absolutely no objections."

"It's a pleasure to cooperate." Liu Wei said with a smile.

"okok, happy cooperation!" Tamil smiled and waved his hand to close the video.

……

After ensuring that he had absolute decision-making power, Liu Wei also gathered everyone together:

"Senior Sister Ling, Senior Sister Zeng, you are responsible for replacing these original paintings."

Liu Wei clicked on the screen, and the original painting of the hero of "ioi" came into view.

Ling Jingwen took one look and frowned: "So ugly?!"

The original hero paintings of "ioi" are very in line with Western aesthetics, and the human models and original paintings are somewhat acceptable.

But when it comes to those races such as trolls, elves, and demons, the original painting highlights four characters - do whatever you want.

Be as ugly as you want.

"So you have to redraw these original paintings to match the aesthetics of domestic players as much as possible."

"Then there is the version issue. Chen Yaohui, you are responsible for redoing the talent and skill trees and canceling the runes. I have sent these to you in files."

Chen Yaohui nodded and agreed.

Liu Wei turned his attention to Li Qishan again: "Next, let's discuss new heroes."

"it is good."

Everyone left the studio one after another, and Liu Wei followed Li Qishan to his office building.

We found a more comfortable position and sat down.

Liu Wei was the first to speak: "The hero update speed of "ioi" is too slow now. From now on to the next three months, at least one new hero must be released every month."

After Li Qishan thought for a moment, he frowned and said, "Boss, it's not that we are incapable."

"But now we have to update the physical card of Yu-Gi-Oh!, and now we have to ensure the high-intensity hero speed of "ioi"..."

Liu Wei asked: "You mean manpower?"

Li Qishan shook his head: "It's not just manpower. According to your ideas, boss, our new hero must not only have exclusive CG and background story, but also have skills that fit the hero's positioning."

"Numerical balance can be solved by hand, but inspiration is not a problem that can be solved by many people."

Liu Wei understood.

A new hero must have five skill designs, passive and qwer.

These five skills are not simply thought up and done, but must be linked with other skill groups.

Otherwise, what comes out will not be a new hero, but a Stitch Monster.

This is why most MOBA games are slow to release new heroes.

Because there are combination issues to consider.

But all this is not a problem in front of Liu Wei. He has the memory of his previous life. With a little reminder, he can only be two heroes in a month.

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about this at all, I have a solution." Liu Wei smiled broadly.
