Overwatch comes to Marvel

Chapter 758 Where is the recharge entrance? (two in one)

"Hei Ying, didn't you say that you don't like to fool people?" Luo Ning asked.

"Do you know that there is a saying called 'influenced by ears and eyes', even if I learn to fool people, I will be led by you!"

he~tui!
Compared with you, it is still far behind.I really feel sorry for Tony Stark, it's okay to reward the person who hacked his company's server.

"By the way, you're also a hacker?" Heiying sized up Luo Ning, "This hot-eyed outfit looks a bit technical, and that brainwashing ringtone..."

Luo Ning was just about to humble himself in front of the boss, but he swallowed some good words when he heard the second half of the sentence, what's wrong with my outfit?
A white sweater with the Overwatch logo on it, a pair of black sweatpants, and flamboyant red running shoes.Taking a step back, even if he didn't have a business elite fan, he didn't want to develop in this area. He didn't want to be in a suit and leather shoes all day like Tony, but he was dressed decently. Why did he have hot eyes?
There is also the newly replaced ringtone, although the sound is a bit loud, but it is also a classic rock music, why is it brainwashed?

I think you are just looking at me as an unhappy person!

"Let's test you, infiltrate the computer through ip, you need @!@###..."

I can still understand the first few sentences, but what is that behind?
Seeing that Luo Ning couldn't answer, Heiying was completely stunned, and Hei Ying snorted softly, "Is this the level? Get some sleep, don't call yourself a hacker."

"I'm an amateur." Luo Ning was a little embarrassed. Even the old hacker who taught him hacking techniques was like a boss in front of Sombra, let alone him, a newbie.

"Finally tell the truth, what kind of matrix are you talking about with me as an amateur, and you still have a set." Soi Ying really believed his evil, and now thinking about it, he really felt a little stupid at that time.

"Although I'm not skilled enough, it's really possible that the matrix exists." Luo Ning said.

"Commander, go and rest, I still have serious things to do, good boy! Ah!"

Hei Ying was very angry, and Luo Ning was very uncomfortable hearing it, and really wanted to give her a trick to change her face beyond recognition.

"Let me remind you again, don't hack other companies' servers." Luo Ning instructed before leaving.

"Don't worry, I'm too lazy to hack companies that can easily break through the security system. It's a waste of my time."

During this period of time, Sombra was quite at peace, not doing anything, not going out of the gate for a day, like a second Moira, but they were immersed in different fields.

Sombra seems to be attacking Tony's suit system with all his strength, but the suit system has a higher security level, and it will not be able to overcome it for a while.Because of this, Sombra was able to stay in the base without sleeping and eating, and didn't mess with other people's company systems.

Good!

well!Among these people, Thomas was the only one who let him save some time, and he could go for a drive with him if he had nothing to do, and complained to him that he was both a nanny and a mother, doing all thankless things.

It is rare to go to the training base of the e-sports club, see the young faces full of envy, and hear the "boss" full of respect, so that he realizes: Oh, so I am a boss.

Speaking of which, the e-sports industry has developed rapidly in recent years, and the various divisions of their OW team have also achieved good results.

However, with several major crises, those games that were once all the rage have faded away, such as Dungeon, Jedi Warmth, League of Kings... Although they can still support a group of young people who love e-sports, but the influence of power is gradually reduced.

Now there is an urgent need for a phenomenon-level competitive online game to reintroduce e-sports into people's vision.

And Blizzard Entertainment, which has always followed the stand-alone boutique route, has this ambition, and also has abundant funds and strong strength to support it.

They are running this online game project called "Overwatch", and you can tell from the name that it is a cooperative relationship with Overwatch Films.

A long time ago, Blizzard Entertainment released the news of the new game. The movie fans and game fans were looking forward to it, but after that, they never saw any news about the new game, which was unavoidably disappointing.

The reason is that Blizzard Entertainment makes online games with stand-alone quality, has high requirements for details, and is meticulous in every aspect, so the progress is very slow.The only shortcut is that the background setting can be copied from the movie. Each hero has a ready-made model and background story, so there is no need to spend too much effort on the worldview structure and characters, mainly numerical calculations and gameplay.

The good news is that it is now at the last juncture.During Blizzard Entertainment, there was a lot of dealings with Overwatch Films, just to get the copyright.

All these matters were handled by Lucy, and Luo Ning only occasionally asked about them.

But sometimes, the game planner has to ask him, a layman who knows games well, about gameplay and balance.Because it is a cooperative relationship, he earns a lot if the game sells well, so Luo Ning has always answered every question.

Even at the last moment, the planner personally invited him to participate in the first internal test of Overwatch.The purpose is to find out the problem and fill in the gaps.

Luo Ning readily accepted, it is a pity that there is no such game as "Overwatch" in this world.

However, there will be!
It will bring those children the purest competitive fun, the most wonderful fingertip enjoyment.

Although he has experienced so many things, his interest in games has diminished, and the computer, arcade machine, and game cabin are all dusty, but that good memory is always there.Why don't you want to experience the novice tutorial again, and manipulate Soldier 76 excitedly and clumsily to complete the novice tutorial?

The joy of the first victory, the excitement of the first 6 kills, the cry of the first Jedi comeback... Even if I try my best and fail in the game, I will not have negative emotions, because I have worked hard, and my teammates have also worked hard. It will be a little regretful, maybe only a little bit short.

It can bring people a kind of belief that they will not give in and admit defeat. If you are not afraid of technical skills, you will be afraid of disunity. You will never give up until the last moment. How will you know if you don’t try?

This is the charm of e-sports!

Teamwork, persistence, and indomitable progress!

Went to Blizzard Entertainment's headquarters in California, the magnificent building shining in the sun, it is indeed a world-class top game company!But compared to Watchtower, it's still not that interesting.

In the process of hands-on experience, Luo Ning regarded himself as an experienced player, and praised the remarkable places, and also pointed out the deficiencies for them to improve.

On the contrary, the employees of Blizzard Entertainment were very polite, reminding him of his identity with all kinds of behaviors of respect and admiration all the time, which made Luo Ning very unnatural.

"Everyone enters this business because they love games, so don't be so cautious. I also love games, otherwise I wouldn't come here in person. I very much hope to make the IP of 'Overwatch' into a phenomenal online game, so that everyone Players who like to watch movies but like games feel the culture of Overwatch, and even... I hope it can become a kind of game art, which requires everyone's joint efforts."

"I'm just a player, at best a player with a bit of talent. Just think of me as the former professional player Ronin who defeated D.Va three times."

Luo Ning was joking appropriately, and after everyone laughed, the atmosphere relaxed a lot.

Next, Luo Ning carefully evaluated the game. After he casually said many things, the staff of the planning department felt enlightened.

"Souga, so it can be solved like this!"

"Don't look at just adding a small setting, which not only solves the problem but also increases the fun, it's really nice!"

"Observing the game from the perspective of a professional player can indeed see the balance flaws that we weak players can't see."

……

"It's just a little flaw, and there are no other problems. I think you can test it for a month or two before it can be officially launched."

There is really nothing wrong with the game. It is indeed a Blizzard that is in the same line as Blizzard. It has almost restored 90% of the original version, and has also incorporated its own characteristics. The picture quality is better and the details are richer.

However, Luo Ning discovered a fatal problem, where is the recharge entrance? !
"Recharge entrance? Is there such a thing?"

"Isn't 'Overwatch' a buyout game?"

"Yes, Mr. Luo Ning, we have a buyout system. There is no mall in the game, and we don't sell items that affect the balance."

You are still too young!
Luo Ning cleared his throat, and started his textbook-like popular science...

"It is true that Overwatch is a competitive game with a buyout system, and you must not be able to sell attribute items that affect the balance, but you have not discovered that it contains infinite potential for inducing fees..."

"Opening the box is addictive. I'll stop here. This is also a small suggestion of mine. Whether you accept it or not is up to you."

Luo Ning simply felt that he was a marketing genius, so much so that he wished he could charge 238 now.

"Can you still play like this? It's amazing!"

"Recharge players only speed up the collection of skins, actions and other appearance decorations, without affecting the fairness of the game at all. Zero krypton players can also open boxes to collect, and zero krypton European emperors can even defeat small krypton African chiefs. liked!"

"Mr. Luo Ning has both the professional players' consideration of gameplay and balance, and the successful entrepreneur's keen perception of business opportunities. It is an honor for our team to have such a test character for the 'Overwatch' production team. So I suggest that we put a statue of Commander Ronin on the map of the game."

The employees, including the chief planner, were full of praise after hearing it. Games can make money through multiple channels, and they can get more year-end bonuses. Why not do it?
This flattery is so comfortable~
But when he thought of going back to see those guys, every cell in Luo Ning's body expressed his reluctance.

The chief planner calmed down and thought about it for a while, and felt that this method was not as good as imagined. They were the only two-way charging company. What if players didn't buy it?
The buyout game that everyone thinks is to pay once and enjoy forever.It may be difficult to change the concepts established by the players.

Facing the chief planner's questioning, Luo Ning just smiled and said: "Practice the truth, if you want to be the first to eat a crab, you must have the courage to face its hard pincers and shell. Once you successfully knock the shell Open it, the crab meat inside is very tender and delicious."

Luo Ning did not draw cakes for them, but sought truth from facts.

Taking a ready-made example, in his previous world, Overwatch had signs of becoming popular just after it was released, and it was indeed comparable to a phenomenon at its peak, but it was always a little bit worse, and the reason was because of the threshold of the buyout system.The reason for the gradual decline in the end cannot be attributed to two-way charging, but the lack of game content and boring gameplay, which cannot retain players for a long time, and the other is cheating.

This shows that as long as the game is of high quality, fun, and durable, even two-way charging will not affect anything.

The key lies in the gameplay. Temporary freshness is important, but what is more important is how to continuously bring players a sense of freshness. This is the lifeblood of a game's long-term development.

"That's the reason, we will think about it carefully, Mr. Luo Ning, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to test the game for us, thank you very much." The chief planner nodded.

That's true, but take a risk.He still decided to think it over and hold a meeting with everyone to discuss the profit and loss.After investing such a large cost, let alone how much you earn, you can't lose money, can you?
"By the way, let me tell you another news. The new movie will be released soon. I hope you can support me a lot."

Before leaving, Luo Ning said with a smile.

"That's for sure. We watch every Overwatch movie in the cinema. IMAX3D is very cool to watch. It's common practice to watch it twice and three times."

"Mr. Luo Ning, I have a question. Is the bodybuilder with pink hair in the 'Sombra' easter egg male or female?"

"Yes, I want to ask that question too."

What a bodybuilder!
Luo Ning smiled, and said: "Actually, you will know about it when the new movie trailer is online, but it's okay to tell you now, she is a female athlete."

"My God, girl! A proper female man!"

"Female athletes, no wonder they are so muscular. It must be weightlifting."

"Maybe it's wrestling."

After leaving Blizzard Entertainment's headquarters, Luo Ning's head hurt again, and he really didn't want to go back to the base.But don't go back, I'm afraid they will run amok without restraint.

As soon as he went back, there was indeed a mess waiting for him to clean up.It wasn't that Widowmaker had spied a policeman again to ask questions, or that Moira had turned the lab into a mess again, and he was so busy all of a sudden.

too difficult!
After finally being free and swiping his phone, he saw the "big move" of Blizzard Entertainment.

A piece of news ignited the long-lost expectations in the hearts of all gamers, and quickly climbed to the top of the list.

"It is understood that Blizzard's new work "Overwatch" is in the pioneer testing stage, and it is expected to meet global players within 2-4 months. The charging model is not clear yet, but according to Blizzard's operating philosophy of a stand-alone manufacturer, it should be Buyout system. Once bought out, enjoy for a lifetime!"

Seeing this, Luo Ning showed a gentle and refined smile, "Hey, I'm afraid you are thinking too much!"
