Chapter 814 "Sea Fortress" DLC Update (Ask for a Monthly Ticket!)

Thursday, January 12.

Shangyang game.

Wang Xiaobin came to the door of Lin Wan's office and knocked lightly on the door.

"Mr. Lin, if there is no problem with the DLC of the remaining two games, they will be officially released. Do you still need to tell Ye Zhizhou?"

Lin Wan thought for a while and said, "No need. He is in Los Angeles now, with jet lag, and he is usually busy doing tactical analysis for the FV team, so don't bother him. Besides, the development of these two DLCs He had already read the content when it was finalized, so there should be no major problems, so let’s release it directly.”

"This time, you led the design and development of the DLC of several old games. You have worked hard. Take a good rest these two weeks."

Wang Xiaobin was a little embarrassed by the praise, and said, "Hey, I was kicked out of the shelves. If President Pei hadn't forced me to do this work, I wouldn't have thought that I would be able to develop these DLCs by myself."

"The DLC of "Sea Fortress" is basically Huang Ge's idea, I just cooperate with him."

Lin Wan smiled slightly: "Don't be overly modest. Although modesty is a virtue, it will also affect self-confidence."

"Boss Pei obviously hopes to train everyone to be a generalist, so that any one person can be independent, instead of just being a replaceable screw."

"Let's sum up this experience well, maybe Mr. Pei will give you more similar tasks in the future."

Wang Xiaobin nodded: "Okay, then I will go to work first."

He returned to his station, and after a final check, he officially updated the new versions of "Return to the Shore" and "Sea Fortress".

This old game update plan is divided into two parts: the two games "Lonely Desert Highway" and "Game Producer" are updated earlier because there is not much content; There are many updates to the game, and it has been delayed until this month.

Especially "Sea Fortress", almost a whole set of new plot modes has been redone.

This DLC tells the story of how Qin Yi went deep into the worm's nest when he was the captain of the special team before becoming a commander. The outline of the story was completely provided by Huang Sibo, and it is said to be closely related to the game plot of "Mission and Choice".

Wang Xiaobin didn't know exactly what the game plot of "Mission and Choice" was, but according to Huang Sibo's request and the information he gave, he seriously organized manpower to develop this DLC for warming up in advance.

Now that all the DLCs have been developed, Wang Xiaobin has successfully completed the task assigned to him by Mr. Pei, so he can finally relax.

"I don't know what's going on with Ye Zhizhou. Shouldn't he come back after winning the championship?"

Wang Xiaobin has always been quite critical of Mr. Pei's transfer of Ye Zhizhou to Los Angeles as a tactical analyst.

The person in charge of Shangyang Games and the operation person in charge of GOG's international server went all the way to Los Angeles to do tactical analysis.

Originally, Wang Xiaobin had a lot of questions to ask Ye Zhizhou in the process of developing the DLC, but he couldn't do it because of the time difference between the two sides, and Ye Zhizhou seemed to be very busy there.

But Wang Xiaobin didn't dare to beep too much, after all, President Pei personally requested it.

"It's just an e-sports competition held by ioi. I don't understand why Mr. Pei pays so much attention to it. Is there any special consideration?"

"Forget it, I'll do my own thing."

Wang Xiaobin released the DLC of two games, and then paid close attention to the player's feedback.

...

Meanwhile, the sloth apartment.

Qiao Liang had just woken up, and while eating the Moyu takeaway that was delivered regularly, he was swiping his phone boredly.

"The GPL competition doesn't start until five o'clock in the afternoon, so this afternoon, should we play games or make a video?"

"Well, let's play the game."

"But there seems to be no good games to play for a long time recently."

"The ioi global finals only have the FV team's game on Sunday morning, which is really annoying."

It took only half a second for Qiao Liang to reject the idea of ​​making a new video, and happily decided to fish for it.

It's just that even if you try to fish, there are no good options, because there are really no masterpieces worth paying attention to recently.

At this time, Qiao Liang really wanted to take a taxi and rush to the headquarters of Tenda Games, put a knife on his neck and threatened Mr. Pei: If you don't make a new game, I will die and show you!

Of course, just thinking about it casually, it is impossible to do this.

Qiao Liang knew very well that Mr. Pei is actually a very strict self-demanding person. Every time a new game is made, it is not only necessary to change the game type, but also to make a breakthrough from the previous game.

It will not be like many game manufacturers, after a successful game, they will start to copy themselves infinitely, change their skins and start to continue to make money.

Mr. Pei's development habits have indeed allowed him to continuously improve in the field of game design, and he can bring players exciting works every time, but this also means that the investment is getting bigger and the time is getting longer and longer. .

In fact, the new DLC of "Lonely Desert Highway" and "Game Producer" has hinted that the next game will be a sci-fi game, and the many easter eggs and details buried in it make Qiao Liang's heart itch.

As a result, after waiting for so long, Mr. Pei's new game still hasn't been seen, and the previous enthusiasm has basically disappeared.

Qiao Liang browsed the Ellie Island website for a while, and then opened his own fan group.

"Huh? "Return to the Shore" and "Sea Fortress" also have updated DLC?"

"……are you crazy!"

"How can these old games be updated endlessly? Wouldn't it be better to concentrate all the people to quickly make new games?"

"Hey, forget it, as long as this DLC can maintain a consistent level, I don't care."

Qiao Liang complained a few times, but he knew in his heart that his idea was quite unreasonable.

Although he would like to play new games quickly, the development time of such a large game is inherently long. Moreover, game development is not something that the more people there are, the faster it will be. What can be done by one programmer in 100 days, cannot be done by 100 programmers in one day.

What's more, updating DLC ​​for old games is something that developers with conscience will do, and there is nothing to criticize.

Qiao Liang immediately opened the two games to check the update announcement.

Compared with the DLC of "Lonely Desert Highway", which is 5 times more expensive than the main body, the DLC of these two games can be said to be very conscientious.

The price of the "Back to the Shore" DLC is 18 yuan, and the "Sea Fortress" DLC is still free to update as before, except that there is a new epic weapon.

Qiao Liang paid first, and then began to read the update announcements of the two games.

After all, most old players have absolute trust in Tenda, and Tenda's pricing in this aspect of the game will definitely be set at an absolute value for money, and you can't buy it at a loss or be fooled.

The update content of "Return to the Shore" is mainly about the gameplay, and a new "reincarnation mode" is added, mainly for hardcore players who have already cleared the game many times, and clearing this dangerous game is easier than visiting their own back garden.

In the "Reincarnation Mode", a new reincarnation will start every month based on the natural month in reality.

After entering the reincarnation mode, the state of the character returns to the initial state, but all monsters in the map, drops, etc. will be random within certain rules, that is, it is possible to encounter more powerful monsters in the early stage and drop more powerful equipment .

Of course, there are certain rules at random to prevent unknown bugs from appearing.

In addition, players can choose to adjust the difficulty of the game at the Buddha statue, or re-generate the entire world (the part that has not been challenged) randomly, with a limit of seven times within a month.

If the "reincarnation mode" is cleared within a month, the player will be provided with a permanent character appearance, including a full set of clothing and weapons.

The DLC content of "Sea Fortress" is said to be a brand-new story mode and a brand-new epic weapon. There is no further detailed description of the others, and it is probably waiting for players to experience themselves in the game.

"It seems that the DLC of "Return to the Shore" is more interesting. Even if the story mode of "Sea Fortress" is updated, it may only be one or two hours. This game is so old, it can't be done for four or five hours. ? Didn’t it burn too much money?”

Qiao Liang first opened the "Return to the Shore" experience.

As an old player who has suffered many times, Qiao Liang already knows the content of "Return to the Shore" like the back of his hand. He remembers exactly where there are monsters and what things will drop.

It's not that he has a good memory, it's simply that he has been abused more.

Anyone who has died in the same place dozens of times will be impressed by this place.

Although this DLC has no substantive game content updates, it can still be seen that the designer has put a lot of effort into this new mode, and it has indeed improved the playability and fun of the game.

Although it is a random mode, when different monsters, bosses and props are randomized to specific places, it may cause game bugs, or the entire game process will be stuck. In order to avoid these problems, the development team obviously considered a lot. Probably avoided this from happening.

Although it is still the same map, but the location of monsters and dropped items have changed, the previous speedrunning route is naturally not easy to use, and old players can push the entire map from the beginning again with a sense of freshness, and in the process Full of surprises.

Considering the price of only 18 yuan, it can be said that you can't buy it at a loss or be fooled.

It is conceivable that clearing the reincarnation mode of "Return to the Shore" once a month in the future will become a monthly task for veteran players. Taking more commemorative weapons and appearances can better reflect your status as a veteran player.

Qiao Liang played for a while, and was very satisfied with the updated reincarnation mode of "Return to the Shore". He temporarily saved the progress and waited to play slowly.

Then, he opened "Sea Fortress" to check the DLC content of the game.

Although "Sea Fortress" is well-known for its 888 Fire Unicorn and rich battle modes, the plot of this game is definitely not bad.

When the game first came out, many players fell into the trap because of the unique plot of "Sea Fortress" among domestic FPS games.

Strictly speaking, the plot of "Sea Fortress" is very simple. Except for shooting guns, the player is interacting with a little girl who can't speak, but even such a simple plot, after doing enough details Still very good.

As early as that time, Mr. Pei's talent in game plot design had already been revealed.

Qiao Liang pondered, why can't the plot of this DLC have more content than the plot of the original work?

If the scale of the original plot is considered, and it is shortened a little...then the game flow should be quite short, and it can be finished in a while.

As Qiao Liang thought about it, he entered the plot mode of "Sea Fortress".

Ask for a monthly ticket, and continue to add updates to the leader at night
