Chapter 1245: Rough Design
Pei Qian looked at Yu Fei again after deciding on the general direction of Ghost General 2. “This is mainly because I did not make it clear at the beginning. Your idea is actually quite good.”
“That’s settled on the ga’s background. Tell more about the gaplay.”
“Don’t feel restricted. Say what you have to say.”
Yu Fei was silent again.
Boss Pei, that was a little unkind.
You asked to speak my mind, but you rejected as soon as I finished speaking.
On the surface, he seed to be saying that he had forgotten, but he obviously did not agree with . That was why he suggested modification!
Didn’t you agree to seriously consider my proposal?
Liar!
Now that Boss Pei was asking about the details of the ga, this really involved Yu Fei’s blind spot in knowledge.
He had used his superficial gaming knowledge to co up with the idea of ‘Tengda’s Great Battle’. That was the most reliable idea he could think of.
As for the details of the ga, he had no idea at all. Where could he start?
Yu Fei seed to be constipated for a few minutes. He said reluctantly, “Alright, I’ll really speak my mind, then.”
“I think there are many reasons why combat gas beco less popular.”
“One of the biggest reasons is that it is too hardcore, and almost all of the fun is concentrated on PVP.”
“For ordinary players, it is difficult to learn, difficult to train, and difficult to experience the fun. There might be PVE gaplay but it is relatively boring. On the other hand, even though the fun of PVP is strong, it is very easy for new players to be tortured to give up quickly because there are few players and a huge gap.”
“In order to change this, I think we should consider the following points.”
“One is to consider changing the perspective of the combat ga to a perspective like Repent and be Saved. The combat chanism will also make so adjustnts so that players can use more popular and familiar thods to fight.”
“Second, increase the PVE gaplay. You can consider adding a large number of small soldiers in the battle. At the sa ti, expand the battle scene and strengthen the Boss’ stats.”
“Third is to introduce two sets of operating chanisms. One is the original operating chanism, the other is to simplify the operating chanism and reduce the threshold of newbies.”
“Fourth, it is to establish a more perfect training model. It is not just for players to explore on their own, but to be clearer and clearer so that players can repeatedly practice to form muscle mory. At the sa ti, it would be to explain so professional content in depth. It would save players ti to find videos online to learn.”
Yu Fei spoke freely, whatever he thought.
Didn’t you ask to say it casually? I’ll really say it casually then!
In any case, whether he accepted it or not was Boss Pei’s business. No matter how unreliable I sounded, Boss Pei would definitely carefully distinguish and choose the right plan.
Everyone had different expressions after hearing Yu Fei’s words.
However, designers who knew a little more about combat gas shook their heads slightly.
Obviously, Yu Fei’s idea was purely considering problems from his own perspective. He did not consider the thoughts of the target players at all.
Yu Fei’s change of perspective had exposed his absolute amateurism.
How could a combat ga be called a combat ga if the perspective was changed?
Change it to a third-person perspective like Repent and be Saved, make a bigger map, add so little monsters, and increase the difficulty of the boss in the plot…
Wasn’t this the sa f*cking action ga as Repent and be Saved?
He had only changed it to the Ghost General.
Of course, he could not be blad.
That was because Yu Fei was an avid lover of action gas. He had already said that he did not understand combat gas. What’s more, everything had happened so suddenly. It was impossible for him to have the ti to understand and research.
Thus, this plan was very reasonable.
In a certain sense, the ga model that Yu Fei suggested would definitely be more profitable than pure combat gas. After all, Repent and be Saved and Eternal Reincarnation had the foundation. What’s more, this type of ga was more popular.
However, Boss Pei had already said that this was a combat ga. It was impossible to adopt Yu Fei’s plan.
Pei Qian listened intently, trying his best to learn from what he could lose.
After listening to everything, Pei Qian remained silent for a mont and said, “According to you, this ga seems more like an action ga than a fighting ga.”
Yu Fei: “Ah, this…”
“That does seem to be the case.”
“Can we add so tricks to the movents?”
“It’s just… Hmm…”
The more he spoke, the less confident he beca.
Yu Fei slapped his head and said whatever he thought of. However, looking at the atmosphere at the venue and Boss Pei’s reaction, it was obvious that what he said was very unreliable.
The key was that he was gradually coming to terms with it. How could it be called a combat ga if it was changed this way? It was obviously an action ga.
What’s more, even if he added a strategy, he could not salvage the situation.
On one hand, the operation mode of combat gas and action gas was completely different. The way the joystick was used was completely different, it could not be compatible at all. The idea of “rubbing moves in action gas” was basically impossible.
On the other hand, even if it was created, it could only be considered an ‘action ga with so fighting elents’ and not a ‘combat ga that looks like an action ga’.
There was a fundantal difference between the two.
Pei Qian rubbed his chin, thinking that this plan would not do.
The key was that if you turned a combat ga into an action ga, wouldn’t I be making money?
The reason why Pei Qian decided to make combat gas was because he felt that it was niche and not profitable.
At that thought, Pei Qian cleared his throat. “I think there are still many rits. However, the first point you ntioned is open for discussion.”
“The perspective of the ga cannot be changed. If it is changed, it will not be called a combat ga.”
“Of course, the problem of perspective is not so absolute. We can make slight adjustnts to a certain extent and make a difference from traditional combat gas.”
“Apart from that, I think there’s nothing wrong with what you said. It fits my expected general direction.”
“I feel that the setting of adding new soldiers is especially novel!”
“However, we have to pay attention to sothing. The small soldiers cannot be placed on a cross section. It might be a combat ga but we have to do it in pure 3D. The small soldiers will co from various directions.”
“All the operations of the combat ga are done in the cross section of the 2D perspective. How to balance the relationship between the two and let them combine together would have to show your intelligence.”
Everyone was shocked.
Huh?
Boss Pei’s explanation of the first point was in line with their expectations, but that was not the case after that!
The perspective could be slightly adjusted, but not too drastically. That was for sure.
However, it was a little difficult to understand the rest of it!
The key was that it was very difficult to imagine what it was like to add soldiers in a combat ga. How ssy would that be!
Of course, many people would subconsciously think from the perspective of the horizontal version of the ga. That was to let all the soldiers focus on the sa horizontal cut or add a certain amount of Jing Shen on the horizontal cut.
However, from Boss Pei’s words, he definitely did not want it to be a horizontal version of a ga that could be passed.
What he wanted was a combat ga. This also ant that the setting of rubbing moves had to be retained. In order to retain rubbing moves, whether players used a joystick or a direction key, the operation habits had to be in line with the combat players’ habits.
What’s more, the soldiers could not all be in the sa cross section.
Boss Pei said that the ga was actually 3D. The soldiers would co from all directions, but the players would only see the side of the character, which was in line with the perspective of traditional combat gas.
Thus, it was hard to understand how he should add this.
Looking at everyone’s confused expressions, Pei Qian could not help but smile.
Alright, the effect had been achieved!
In fact, Pei Qian was most worried about two things: First, he was afraid that Ghost General 2 would beco an action ga like Repent and be Saved, or a matchless hack ga. That would not be considered a combat ga at all and would greatly increase the chances of making money. Second, he was afraid that Ghost General 2 would beco a purebred combat ga and be sought after by die hard gars.
Thus, Yu Fei smacked his head and ca up with this plan. He would ss it up again and turn the ga into nothing.
Coupled with Yu Fei, the chief designer who did not understand combat gas at all, everything was done!
“Do you have any other opinions?”
“Very good, let’s follow this plan.”
“If you think of any ideas in the future, you can tell Yu Fei. He will give feedback because of the unification of the ideas.”
Pei Qian only asked a symbolic question. At that mont, everyone was still thinking hard about what Boss Pei’s design ant. No one stood up to express their thoughts.
That was good as well. When they had ideas, he would get them to feedback to Yu Fei.
Yu Fei was not good at fighting gas to begin with. He had no idea about the ultimate form of Ghost General 2. If his subordinates kept giving him suggestions, he would definitely beco very confused.
However, it should not be impossible. After all, the entire Tengda Gas team was relatively professional.
The biggest possibility was that it would be completed at the deadline. Then, they would create a strange-looking splicing monster. They would spend money to buy many resources so the graphics were not bad, but it would not be fun.
That was the ultimate goal that Pei Qian wanted to pursue.
Pei Qian was very satisfied with his own plan. He stood up and prepared to leave.
Yu Fei nearly panicked when he saw Boss Pei leave.
“Wait, Boss Pei!”
“You’re leaving this job to like that?”
Pei Qian nodded. “Of course. Aren’t you the chief designer? Who else would I hand it to?”
“But…” Yu Fei looked confused, not even knowing what to say.
I’ve said so much just now. Can’t Boss Pei tell that I’m a scumbag? Can’t Boss Pei tell that I really don’t understand combat gas at all?
Why did Boss Pei still hand this important task to ?
Boss Pei patted Yu Fei’s shoulder lightly as if he could see his confusion.
“Look, you were the one who suggested the main idea of this ga. There shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
“You’re the chief designer of Tengda Gas now. There shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
“The ‘Eternal Reincarnation’ that you were in charge of just now was a huge success. It might not be a combat ga but it is also a difficult operating ga. There is a certain degree of commonality. There is no problem with this, right?”
“If there’s no problem, what other problems do you have?”
Yu Fei was tongue-tied. He did not expect Boss Pei to summarize three points to prove the reason behind the ‘Ghost General 2’ being handed over to Yu Fei. At that mont, he did not think of a good way to refute.
Pei Qian smiled. “Good luck, then!”
He turned and left the conference room, leaving Yu Fei in the conference room, looking confused, like he was daydreaming.
