MTL - I Develop Battlefield To Drive Global Players Crazy-Chapter 254

However, the fast pace of the multiplayer mode and the classic team competition gameplay make the multiplayer of 663 "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" high.

There is also the previous hard-core tactical anti-terrorism "Rainbow Six: Siege", coupled with the free operation mode, which makes it occupy half of the FPS world.

On the AE game side, the FPS game it launched is a purely multiplayer-based game.

Although it looks like a new layer of skin, you can still see many shadows of the battlefield and Cai Liu.

Simply put, it is that this game has no irreplaceable attributes.

Spend the money of a top hit to buy a game where you can find alternatives.

Picture what?

After all, under the good operation of Chen Xu, the current "Battlefield", "Call of Duty" and "Rainbow Six: Siege" are not much fresh blood, but it is definitely a virtuous circle.

Plus there are traditional FPS games from other game makers.

Even in the next era, it has to be said that the new works on the AE game side are completely uncompetitive.

After all, the same three categories of cars and **** bring players immersion more with real leagues and car factories.

And FPS can't do that.

‘Did Chen Xu directly kill the FPS game! ’

It can be said that this topic has caused numerous debates among players, industry designers and manufacturers on official blogs, post bars in China, as well as overseas Little Bluebirds and forums.

Chapter 372 Do you know mecha?

Whether the development of FPS has reached its limit.

It can be said that everyone has their own opinions. For ordinary players, it is a mess, and more evaluations are based on their own personal preferences.

At the same time, they can find their own arguments, and it can be said that no one can convince anyone.

For designers in the industry and analysts from major manufacturers, the development of FPS types is discussed more from relevant data such as sales.

And explore how the development of FPS will be.

However, for the industry recognized, the single-player story or the cooperation-oriented FPS game.

It will be mainstream for a long time to come.

After all, many types can be covered with a layer of skin.

For example, adding elements of brushing, adding elements of RPG, or open world but mainly FPS gameplay, and pure plot direction.

As long as these are done well, for players, it can be said that there are still many new ideas.

But for multiplayer PVP gameplay, many game makers have to be a little pessimistic.

At least so far, it is difficult to have FPS games in multiplayer, to achieve competition.

In the discussion in the industry, the three multiplayer FPS games of Chen Xu are inevitably used for repeated discussions.

After all, there are only so many ways to play multiplayer confrontation in FPS games.

The market has been almost divided up, and it can be said that it is quite difficult for the latecomers to surpass them.

Even sometimes, even if the graphics, physics engine, etc. are more advanced, there may be no way to do it.

Because the multiplayer mode costs a lot more than the single player.

Not to mention the time cost.

In games with in-app purchases, you have invested in economic costs, in games you have met friends and invested in social costs, and when you switch games, you have increased learning costs.

In this case, a successful multiplayer online game, especially a competitive game such as FPS, will be difficult to shake once it stands on its feet.

 …

The discussion outside was hot, and everyone in the Nebula game was obviously paying attention.

In the rest area, Ruan Xue, Yang Xin and the others were also excited while brushing their mobile phones, and said to Chen Xu who was leaning on the massage chair beside him.

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen, do you see that there are still hot searches on the forum? Many colleagues in the industry at home and abroad say that you directly killed the multiplayer FPS. 〃!" Yang Xin said.

"Just listen to this kind of words." Chen Xu said with a smile.

The so-called death of FPS, this is completely nonsense.

"However, it's really not easy to launch a popular multiplayer FPS game today." Qin Yi said with some emotion.

Various types of FPS have basically segmented the current market.

At the same time, multiplayer games are different from single-player games, which last two or three months at most.

Many of them use years as the operating unit, and even some classic games, it is not impossible to maintain a lifespan of ten years or even more without doing any nonsense operations.

Of course, at that time, there will be very few fresh blood entering the pit.

After all, this kind of multiplayer game, if you want players to retain, it must be a steady stream of fresh gameplay and content.

No matter how good or bad, you get it anyway.

However, the stacking of these contents will make the volume of the game very heavy, resulting in high learning costs for new players.

So multiplayer games, whether FPS or otherwise, are basically a cycle of fate.

The older generation died on the beach, and the younger generation occupied the country.

It is really difficult to open up a new route.

"Not necessarily. In fact, there are still a lot of articles that can be done in multiplayer FPS." Thinking of something, Chen Xu stretched his waist and said with a smile.

"Mr. Chen!?" Hearing this, Qin Yi and the others sat up straight and stared at Chen Xu.

"It's just a preliminary idea. I just finished the content of Assassin's Creed. Let's rest for a while." Chen Xu said with a smile.

"Mr. Chen, if the players know what you said, they will definitely force you to play games in the little black room with a knife!" Ruan Xue complained.

For things like rest, they really don't need much.

After all, the treatment of Nebula Games is better than that of other game makers.

And it is still an elite game, and it is only for one project for a period of time.

Therefore, the efficiency (Wang Wang Zhao) rate is much higher than that of other game manufacturers jointly developing with two or three studios.

Of course, the more important thing is that every time the project is a big success, this bonus is simply a soft hand!

In the case of fame and fortune, who would be tired?

"But Mr. Chen, is the new game really going to be an FPS? A new type of gameplay?" Qin Yi paid more attention to what Chen Xu said before.

"Forget it, but in the past, we had to make a game with a relatively short storyline to lay the groundwork for the worldview." Chen Xu nodded and said.

"What type is it, President Chen?" After hearing this, everyone's performance was even more expected.

"Do you know mecha?" Facing the curious crowd, Chen Xu smiled slightly.

Chapter 373 "Titan Falls"

"Mecha?" Yang Xin was a little confused.

"It's the kind of mobile suit." Ruan Xue said to Yang Xin.

"Mecha? President Chen, you're too familiar! Although I'm not a senior jerk, I know a little about it!" Qin Yi was directly excited.

With a swipe, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and then opened his photo album to show everyone his collection.

Models are quietly placed in the glass display collection cabinet.

There are also stacks of unopened boxes.

"But Mr. Chen, if the new game is a mecha type, let the player play the mecha to fight, it just feels like a new layer of skin for the traditional FPS." Yang Xin next to him couldn't understand the happiness of the glue guy, she was more concerned about it. It's the game itself.

Whether it's a mecha or a monster, these are just the settings and themes in the game.

If you can't change the gameplay, it's basically just a skin change.

"The element of mecha is just to enrich the world view of the game. The multiplayer part is still dominated by people. However, we will not do the real multiplayer part, but make the game part of the worldview first." Chen Xu smiled. said with a smile.

"The background of the game is 667. In the future, technology is highly developed, and the scope of human activities is no longer limited to the planet, but expanded to the sea of ​​stars."

"And the story of the game we're going to do is to intercept what happens in a star system called 'Frontier'."

"In order to gain control of the border, Star Manufacturing Ltd (IMC) and the Frontier Rebellion have fought a fierce war here."

"In order to obtain sufficient profits, the former recklessly exploits the abundant local natural resources, which may eventually lead to the depletion of the resources of the planet and this galaxy, leading to its demise; while the latter resists in order to protect the survival of the galaxy and strive for independence."

"After a great battle, the border rebels turned from defense to offense and began to control multiple planets on the border, gradually driving the IMC out of their homeland."

"Among them, the mecha warrior named Titan is a big killer that affects a war. This unique war machine not only has powerful strength, but also has an extremely high AI program. Even if it leaves the pilot's control, it still remains You can fight alone, and you are a comrade who can live and die."

"But if you want to control the Titans, you must have (bibf) strong physique and personal abilities. Such people are called iron pilots."

"And the player will play the frontier resistance soldier on a certain planet. As a driver who is about to become an iron driver, he will follow his own teacher and the superior to fight against the IMC on the battlefield, but in a war, his army is defeated, and his teacher The commander also died in the line of duty."

"However, before his mentor died, he transferred the Titan operation authority, code-named BT-7274, to the protagonist played by the player."

Having said that, Chen Xu took a sip of the mineral water next to him, moistening his throat.

"So the game is dominated by Titan robots!?" Qin Yi was a little excited.

"No, if it is purely based on Titans, as Yang Xin said just now, even if it is a single player, as a supplement to the background, many players will feel that this is more of a skin-changing FPS. "Chen Xu shook his head slightly.

Why is there such a situation?

The biggest problem is that there is no contrast and contrast.

The player manipulates the Titan, and the enemy he faces is naturally the Titan.

But how can players feel the power of Titan and feel the difference?

"So in the game, our design on the level needs to be combined in two, so that the driver has high mobility, not only moves quickly, but also can fly over the walls. There are many things that the Titan can't do, let the driver do it."

"The Titan also has a strong frontal combat capability. When the Iron Pilot is in danger, it is necessary for the Titan to appear to turn the tide." Chen Xu said.

"Tie Yu's words are similar to sneaking among assassins?" Qin Yi said.

"It's understandable, but Iron Pilot's actions are more fluid and exaggerated than Ezio's. After all, this is a sci-fi game, and so-called science does not need to be considered." Chen Xu nodded lightly.

Here Yang Xin, Ruan Xue and the others were also speechless.

Don't think about science, are the eagle eyes and the leap of faith in the assassin just science!

Of course, if they say this, they just complain in their hearts.

"At the same time, the Titans in the game also need to add upgrade elements, but it is not the value of RPG, but different weapons and equipment to deal with different enemies."

"Expedition, Power, Flame, Ronin, Polaris, etc. There are many different weapons, players can replace their own Titans, and the characteristics of each weapon are also different, such as Polaris, which is good at long-range sniping, suitable for medium and close combat. The ronin..."

"In addition, when the Titan is attacking, it can also accumulate energy. When the energy is sufficient, it can use the ultimate move. The ultimate move of different weapons will be different."

"Finally, it's AI. The Titans that players control are not just cold machines, but also need to have close interaction with the protagonist, from beginning to end, just like Price, Ghostly."

"We need to let the Titans have a bond with the players, and make them feel that this robot is not a tool, but their true comrade-in-arms." Chen Xu did not explain in more detail, such as level design and gameplay content. .

Just a brief introduction to the background world view of the game, as well as the most basic framework settings.

But even so, it made everyone excited.

A complete basic framework, as well as a general world view.

These things are enough to make people think about what a cool game this is.

But after the excitement, thinking of what Chen Xu said earlier, Yang Xin here hesitated: "Mr. Chen, is this a tragic game?"

Let players have feelings with Titans, which is very similar to a game they made a few years ago!

The game called "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" was developed with the same plot requirements as this one!

"How? Am I such a cruel designer? Don't worry, it won't be a tragedy in the end." Chen Xu smiled happily.

He is a man who never lies.

And it is.

"Then Mr. Chen, does this project have a name or code?" Qin Yi didn't care that much, anyway, game developers like them were already used to Mr. Chen's model.

The reputation has been washed away!

"The name of the game..." Chen Xu heard the words, paused and said with a smile: ""Titanfall"".

Chapter 374 Titans and Battle Royale

"Titanfall", this is the next game Chen Xu is going to make, and of course its follow-up arrangements.
