Almighty Game Designer Chapter 517: Is qualifying 1 a good mode?

In the period after the year, Chen Mo’s update speed for Overwatch has slowed down significantly. Although new heroes and new maps are being released step by step, the delay in starting the qualifying mode has caused Some players are dissatisfied.

Although there are various other modes for players to choose from, and the number of active players and various data in "Overwatch" are steadily increasing, there is no qualifying, which is no small regret after all.

In this case, the emergence of "Gunfire" will definitely dig out a group of core players who are keen on the competitive mode from "Overwatch". For the emperor's mutual entertainment, this should be the most Good time to start.

In the overwhelming propaganda, "Gun Fire" instantly attracted the attention of a large number of players, and even overshadowed Switch and "Super Mario Odyssey" in terms of momentum.

This is not to say that the handheld and Odyssey are not good. On the one hand, due to the market environment, VR games are easier to get the attention of players; on the other hand, it is also because Emperor Interactive Entertainment is very willing to spend money to promote it. After the propaganda funds are dropped, it is easy to create an illusion that the game is now very popular.

On the official promotion page of "Gunfire", a slogan caused quite a stir.

"FPS game that can release skills, the qualifying mode is fully open, waiting for you to reach the top of the gods!"

Obviously, this sentence is nakedly implying that I am a game similar to Overwatch, but I have a qualifying mode!

Obviously, this kind of publicity inevitably got a lot of scolding from the players of "Overwatch", but if you are afraid of being scolded, the mutual entertainment of the emperor and the dynasty is not the mutual entertainment of the emperor.

This kind of scolding will not affect the attitude of the emperor's mutual entertainment players and people who eat melons on this game, and it is nothing more than making the loyal players of "Overwatch" feel disgusted.

The two games are inherently a life-and-death competition, so what if you curse?

This slogan has indeed played a very good role in publicity. Some great gods who have not waited for a long time to come to the qualifying mode have all their minds activated. They want to go to the "Gunfire" in a little bit of abuse, Rush up to the sky, and then it will be easy to pretend to be forced.

A large number of questionable posts have also appeared on the official forum of Overwatch.

"Why didn't Chen Mo open the qualifying mode? It's really because I have been busy with handhelds and new games recently, so I forgot "Overwatch"?"

"Don't understand, "Overwatch" has recently updated a new hero and a new map. Obviously there are manpower, but why is the priority of qualifying so low?"

"Yes, a lot of people have gone to play "Spear and Fire" because of the qualifying event. Chen Mo won't be so inferior!"

"Look at "League of Legends" next door. Various events are in full swing. When can "Overwatch" be like this?"

Some "Overwatch" players are a little disappointed. In their opinion, what Chen Mo is making now is simply a low-level mistake. It can be solved by some qualifying mode tomorrow morning. How can it be delayed until now?

In response to these suggestions, Chen Mo remained silent, without saying a word, without any response.

Emperor Dynasty Interactive Entertainment Headquarters.

Jin Jie came to Lin Chaoxu's office with a copy of the data.

"Mr. Lin, this is the online data of "Gunfire", please take a look."

Lin Chaoxu took it over and looked at it two or three times, and nodded in satisfaction: "Well, yes, the follow-up is also good, much better than "The Ancient Catastrophe"."

Jin Jieguang couldn’t help smiling and said: “Also, Mr. Lin, there are a few statistics that you can pay special attention to. Compared with Overwatch, the online time and core There are obvious advantages in player satisfaction and other aspects. Obviously, this is all benefited from the qualifying mode."

Lin Zhaoxu nodded: "Yes, as we expected."

This time the "Gunfire" is online, Jin Jieguang, like many people in the "Gunfire" project, is worried, for fear of a tragedy like "Ancient Havoc".

"The Ancient Catastrophe" started well at the beginning, but suddenly there was a large-scale cliff-like data drop in the early stage, and even no rescue was possible. Lin Chaoxu and Jin Jieguang were very afraid of the "Gunfire" will Repeat the same mistakes.

But so far, "Gunfire" has developed very well. Although it is still far from the level of "Overwatch", Lin Zhaoxu firmly believes that at least this game will not be as violent as "The Ancient Catastrophe". dead!

In the classroom of World University.

This time, the number of students who came to listen to Chen Mo's elective course has become more, even more than in the first lesson. Many people have already stood in the corridor, just to look at Chen Mo.

After the unprecedented success of Switch and "Odyssey", many people's ideas have been completely reversed.

Those who had previously questioned Chen Mo were all convinced. Chen Mo said that if you were a handheld, you would be a handheld. Not only did it make it, but it also sold so well, which was simply subverting everyone's common sense.

It is true that after listening to Chen Mo's lecture, I feel that I am witnessing history. Regarding the handheld, Chen Mo only made a simple prophecy, and there is a real tendency to become a reality!

Today's course is still very smooth.

During the break, a few students gathered around and asked questions.

"Teacher Chen Mo, can you still buy a brand new Switch? I want to buy it."

"Are there any new game development plans for the Switch? It's not the games on the Thunder game platform, you only develop it yourself!"

"Ms. Chen Mo, which team do you think is the strongest in the domestic "League of Legends" team? Is it NRG?"

Chen Mo also happened to chat with everyone, answer them one by one,

At this time, a classmate asked: "Teacher Chen Mo, Dichao Huyu’s "Gunfire" copied "Overwatch" and started qualifying. So far, the response seems pretty good. Why doesn’t Overwatch have a qualifying mode?"

Chen Mo did not immediately answer ~IndoMTL.com~ but instead asked: "Is qualifying a good game mode?"

The students in the front row were all taken aback.

Isn't this nonsense? The qualifying mode is definitely a good mode!

From "Warcraft" to "League of Legends", you have personally proven it!

The advantages of qualifying are too many. It can create long-term pursuits for players, subdivide player levels, and provide soil for future professional events.

If there is no qualifying mode, "League of Legends" is also difficult to develop into a professional competitive game.

With so many advantages, why did Chen Mo ask this question?

Chen Mo smiled: "There is no absolutely good thing in the world, and there is no absolutely good gameplay in the game. At present, the games that have launched the qualifying mode have developed very well. This is for everyone An illusion, it seems that qualifying is a gameplay without any side effects."

"But it is not."
