61. Games also have a lifespan

"Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages to fighting this thing."

Lin Yao paused, looked at Mu Wanqing's beautiful face, and poured cold water on both herself and her: "No one understood this stuff at the beginning. Ordinary players may still be able to participate in the previous sessions, but there have been many

After a few times, it will soon become a PVP where players compete for financial resources and the shortcomings of the entire team.

By that time, no matter how diligent ordinary players are, it will be difficult for them to catch up with the accounts created by gold-spending players regardless of the cost. No matter how fair the game is, how many pieces of equipment can an ordinary player get by saving game coins for a week?

How many times do you need a pet? If you don’t care about the cost, players who earn money can buy someone else’s equipment and pets for a year in one day. Unless ordinary players work really hard and are lucky, it is really difficult to keep up with the top players in the server battle.

The rhythm of PVP.

Soon, many ordinary players will give up participating in this kind of event."

This is also the reason why Lin Yao convinced that battles will become one of the important revenue sources of the game.

But she didn't think it was unreasonable.

"Fantasy OL"... is an online game or a turn-based online game. Some attributes cannot be changed.

Even in games like League of Legends, there is still a technical gap.

"...What should we do?"

Mu Wanqing looked at Lin Yao and asked.

She knew that since Lin Yao raised such a problem, there must be a solution.

Lin Yao sighed: "This is the Three Realms Competition I'm going to talk about next. This will be a smaller-scale competition than the server competition, and will only be held in this service in the early stage. It is divided into the Young Lord Area, the Overlord Area, and the Alliance Lord Area.

There are four competition areas in the Lord District, and the levels of each competition area are floating. Players in a certain level range are assigned to a free battle in their respective competition areas. In the end, the player team with the highest points wins. In these four competition areas, the levels cover 50

Up to level 120, all players can participate.

The top three teams in all competition areas will receive titles. The first-place team will be awarded the title of champion in the Three Realms Competition, while the second and third place will be ranked second and third overall. The champion, second and third place in the Three Realms Competition at different levels will use

They are distinguished by the first letter of each competition area, which are Shao, Ba, Alliance and Zun.

In addition, the player who has won the title of the highest division champion in the current server can display his game character to all players in the district server at the corresponding NPC in the Jinluan Hall of Chang'an City, the main city of the game in his district server."

Mu Wanqing: "..."

She knew it.

Lin Yao wants to catch all the players in all levels of the server.

"This event is smaller, but it is only compared to the server battle. In fact, the honor you get in the end is not small, and the gold content of the top pick in each division is not low. If you can't participate in the server battle, then take part in the Three Realms Competition. Here

You can also get titles and make your name resound throughout the district and server.

However, we shouldn’t be so generous with the corresponding rewards. Forget about limited mounts. Let’s take out the new mythical beasts. Everyone will participate in the Three Realms Competition. After five battles, they will still be in the field when they appear or at the end of the event.

There is a chance to obtain mythical beast rewards. The competition points can also be exchanged for rewards, which is as good as making havoc in heaven."

In fact, the Three Realms Contest is a gameplay.

Lin Yao struggled for the longest time.

Because there is a hidden danger in this gameplay, that is, as the Three Realms Competition continues, those players who are making waves in their respective competition areas will be reluctant to upgrade...

This situation is fine in the early stage, but it will become a headache in the later stage. Of course, the problem here is not a headache for the players, but a headache for the operators.

To put it bluntly, they affect making money...

Because the ceiling of low-level players is easy to reach, once they reach a certain level, the revenue they bring to the game will be greatly reduced.

There are four competition areas: Young Master Area, Overlord Area, Alliance Leader Area, and Lord Lord Area. Even if only one competition area is upgraded, the difficulty of pursuing the ceiling is still two levels.

The most intuitive comparison is that the pet pills required for training your low-level and high-level pets are different, right?

But Lin Yao thought about it for a while and decided to add the Three Realms Competition without any restrictions.

To make money, you can consider other revenue points.

It is definitely necessary for the Three Realms Competition.

Otherwise, it would be unrealistic for all players to pursue the service battle, and even the most generous people would not have the energy and luck to do so.

If all players are forced to pursue service battles, it will lead to more serious problems.

Ordinary players will leave if they find the target is too far away, and it will not attract new players.

you think.

As soon as a new player enters the game, ask him to join the server battle.

He promised to turn around and leave.

But the Three Realms Contest is different. If you are a new player and cannot participate in the server battle, you can always upgrade to level 60, right? Then if you find friends in this level range, go to the Young Lord District and get the top prize in the Three Worlds Contest in the Young Master District.

The goal is not too far off.

In this way, everyone can find a gameplay that suits them in their respective regional servers.

There is joy in fighting.

The Young Master Zone also has the fun of the Young Master Zone.

The specific choices are left to the players. This kind of benign development, where the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, can be indulged.

The operator does not have to teach players how to play the game.

Although this kind of gameplay will eventually encounter problems, as the game continues to develop, the long-term accumulation of previous players can easily make new players feel despair.

But this problem occurs in every game.

Even if it's a purely competitive game.

For example, Lin Yao was very interested in Rainbow Six in her previous life, but the cost of learning was really too high. She couldn't even beat the Lone Wolf difficulty in the training mode. When she went to PVP, she would die in ten games in every ten games, and she failed every time.

The same way of dying, killing a teammate in ten games... The players in the front of this kind of game don't have accumulated skills.

Even the battle royale game APEX, which is about picking up things while on the ground, still has movement skills. How can a new player understand this? No matter how good your marksmanship is, sometimes you will still get knocked out. It takes ten minutes to go in to pick up things, but you will melt in two seconds after fighting.



In the final analysis.

Games also have a lifespan.

No one can completely solve the problem of new players. It can be prevented, but there is no need to dwell on it.

"As for the cross-server competition, we will do this first, but we don't need to invest too many resources for the time being. Now the game is thriving. The server battle and the three-realm competition are enough to satisfy the players, so that they have goals and will not feel confused after figuring out all the gameplay of the game.

I gave up traveling without a goal.”

Lin Yao withdrew from reminiscing about the past and continued to talk about the game: "I am preparing for the cross-server competition in the future. In the early stage, I only need to allow players to fight against other players across servers. Wait until some servers are evil.

, I will consider whether to launch PVP gameplay based on cross-server."

"Well, this update will probably cover these three points. The PVP gameplay and the mythical beast system will be launched together... After this new version comes out, we can probably take a break for a while. How about it? Do you have any questions? Miss Mu.

"

Lin Yao looked at Mu Wanqing again and handed her the information she just wrote.

Mu Wanqing took the information, looked down at it for a while, then raised her head and said, "Yes."

"What?"

"I'm curious about what's going on in your head... As soon as you introduced these gameplay methods, the pattern of turn-based online games changed."

Mu Wanqing reached out and gently touched Lin Yao's smooth forehead, looking really curious.

Lin Yao: "..."
