Linmu Studio, a company composed of members from the two project teams of "Heroes" and "Warcraft", is called "Defense"
of
the
The project team of "Ancients" was quietly established.
The composition of this project team is very simple.
Mainly the program, but also some UI and special effects planning.
The previous similar temporary project team of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" had many artists, but this project team only accounted for one-tenth of the total number of people.
At first, the internal staff of the project team felt a little strange.
But after joining the group.
They will understand why there is no need for so many artists...
All the materials for the original "Legend of Sword and Fairy" needed to be re-produced, which indeed required a lot of artists.
But now this one is called "Defense"
of
the
Most of the materials for the map of "Ancients" are inherited from the materials in "Warcraft".
For example, there is a hero named Juggernaut.
That is the Beast Hero Sword Master.
certainly.
There are indeed some new heroes who have not appeared in Warcraft, such as Zeus.
These characters need to be redrawn and modeled.
But the problem is not big either.
Because Lin Yao moved directly into the project team...
Next, apart from being busy with the motion capture work on "The Witch", she will spend the rest of her time on the project team.
It’s understandable that there are few art staff…
The staff put aside their concerns.
Then very quickly.
The project team got up and running and began to create a special map for Warcraft.
The progress is very fast.
After all, many things are ready-made.
The reason why Lin Yao chose to use the materials of "Warcraft" is also because the "Warcraft" here is a 'reset version', both in terms of image quality and precision, it is very good and completely feasible.
The project team worked continuously for nearly a week.
The staff transferred from the two project teams of "Heroes" and "Warcraft" gradually... all discovered this card called "Defense"
of
the
The difference between the maps of Ancients and Heroes.
And after gradually deepening the development.
The staff who are familiar with "Heroes" are very excited. They feel that this MOBA game is very exciting.
Staff who are familiar with "Warcraft" are also excited. They also feel that the MOBA game in the world of Warcraft is very interesting...
The final result is that they are like chicken blood.
Efficiency improved again.
And at the same time.
Just when Linmu Studio was busy making custom maps.
Kexi Entertainment is also promoting its own MOBA project...
…
After Kang Yi received the phone call.
He immediately went through the formalities of suspending his studies, temporarily suspended his studies, and joined Kexi Entertainment.
no way.
He originally wanted to refuse.
But the other party gave me too much.
As a college student, I have to pay living expenses from my parents every month.
The generous rewards offered by the other party are really too tempting.
And as someone who is new to the workplace.
Kang Yi still has certain expectations for the workplace.
Especially the other party is a game company...
This is also a common misunderstanding.
My first day on the job.
The experience at Kangyi is quite good.
Onboarding was very smooth and the personnel were very polite.
He even met the general manager of Kexi Entertainment, who encouraged him and told him to work hard.
then.
He then came to the newly established MOBA project team within Kexi Entertainment and served as the main planner of the game.
Then, he officially started his career.
first day.
He chatted with the boss of the project team for a while and asked him what he thought.
Although Kang Yi is new to the workplace, he is not a fool.
The boss of the project team was also very easy to talk to, and just mentioned a few requirements - to benchmark "Heroes", to create a new "lone hero", and to pay attention to avoiding the copyright of Warcraft.
Others let him play freely.
Kang Yi immediately agreed after hearing this, and then geared up to prepare for a big fight.
He spent a week redefining the main gameplay and various systems based on the "Lone Hero" basis.
Then on this basis, the previous "lonely hero" heroes were completely overturned and redone, and corresponding ideas were given.
A busy week before and a busy week after.
Kang Yi wrote a brand new "Lone Hero" project, and after giving it to the boss of the project team for approval, he convened other people such as system planners, numerical planners, etc. to hold a meeting together.
She distributed her plan to her subordinates, and then asked them to come up with a plan according to the above requirements.
Then...the problem arises.
"Kang Zhuce."
meeting room.
One of the system planners was the first to speak: "I have a question, is it necessary to add a day and night system? What is the use of this? "Heroes" does not have such a system, right? Doesn't this just increase the workload? And... individual heroes
Your vision will be blocked at night? What does this mean? Isn’t it necessary?”
"I also have a problem here, Chief Kang."
Another system planned the second opening: "Why do you divide heroes into so many attributes? The growth coefficients of various heroes are different? Wouldn't it be better to refer to "Heroes" directly and use AD and AP to distinguish them?"
"Yes, it's easier to do this." Numerical planner also spoke.
"In addition, there are no "Hero" summoner skills here. Have you forgotten..."
"Also, there is no intelligent spellcasting..."
"Isn't the talent system added?"
"..."
People started asking questions.
Almost every sentence is inseparable from "Hero".
Kang Yi was stunned when he heard this.
Aren’t we...making a new game?
Why are you so obsessed with "Hero"?
Linmu Studio has created a gameplay, so shouldn’t we make our own characteristics based on this to call it a new game?
If you just copy it and change the skin, what else do you have to do?
Kang Yi was a little confused.
And after everyone talked about it.
There was a young-looking planner sitting on Kang Yi's left hand side. Seeing his expression, he stopped talking for a while and couldn't bear it anymore, so he leaned into Kang Yi's ear and whispered: "Chief planner,
I think you should ask the project boss..."
Kang Yi was stunned for a moment, then hesitated for a while and decided to break up the meeting temporarily.
He walked out of the conference room, then took the project and found the boss of the project team.
Tell him what happened just now.
Originally he wanted to come here to seek support.
But when the forty-year-old person in charge heard this, he immediately took over the project in his hands and said in shock: "Why have you changed so many things? Are you really planning to completely break away from "Heroes"? I will let you go free.
That’s not the way to perform."
Kang Yi: "..."
Haven't you reviewed it?
The person in charge quickly flipped through Kang Yi's plan. After more than ten minutes, he raised his head, shook his head gently, and said seriously: "Xiao Kang, we support you in making a brand new MOBA game that will let you
Play, but you can't completely break away from "Heroes", right? Modify it a little."
"Brother Li..." Kang Yi wanted to speak.
"They're the industry benchmark...you know?"
The person in charge interrupted him directly and thrust the plan into his arms again.
Kang Yi glanced at the plan, but the person in charge had already turned around and left.
"..."
Kang Yi used a little force to hold the planning book in his hand.
