Game designer: I am making games, not charity

One of the purposes of Chen Feng's design of "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" is to make it another e-sports product.

In the world before Chen Feng, the real first e-sports competition was born because of this game.

With the popularity of the "League of Legends" e-sports competition across the country, it has become easier to do e-sports for other games.

After all, to hold a competition, you only need to solve the problem of the venue.

Today's Platinum Corporation has not only established long-term cooperative real estate manufacturers in various cities at home and abroad, but is also preparing to build its own stadiums for viewing games exclusively for Platinum Corporation.

At that time, around these free viewing venues, game experience halls, offline e-sports peripheral merchandise stores, and various game peripheral flagship stores will be opened.

This way can truly create a game empire exclusive to Platinum Corporation.

Of course, Zhang Mengyao is doing all of these things at present. With the success of the company's first game experience hall downstairs, the revenue data is very good. According to preliminary estimates, opening such a game experience hall can recover the cost in at most one quarter. .

Now Zhang Mengyao has handed over the development work of the Platinum Mobile Games Department to a few key members who have been following her before. She has completely left the technical department and has completely started to take charge of the company's external affairs.

This also caused Zhang Mengyao to go on business trips almost every now and then, and Chen Fengneng spent much less time meeting her.

However, as the company grows bigger, this is unavoidable.

Today's Zhang Mengyao has gradually grown from the elementary school girl who could only follow behind Chen Feng's buttocks to the vice president of the company who can stand alone.

Therefore, with the current strength of Platinum, it is actually very easy to change "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" out of e-sports competitions.

But Chen Feng was still hesitating.

At this time, in Platinum Company, Chen Feng's office.

The computer is displaying the big data of the players of "Cross Fire" and "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" in the past ten days.

According to statistics, ten days after its launch, the number of concurrent online users of "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" has exceeded 1000 million, and the total number of registered users has also reached an astonishing 9.8 million.

Although the data of "Cross Fire" is slightly worse, the total number of registered people has reached 4 million, and the number of simultaneous online users has also exceeded one million.

It can be said that in the period when the online game market is basically dominated by "League of Legends", the two games "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" and "Cross Fire" can have such impressive results, which is already very impressive.

Moreover, because of PlatinumGames' "Looking for Gunslinger" campaign, the players of "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" are full of enthusiasm, and they all want to be among the top [-] players in the world.

Players have such a high enthusiasm for scoring points, so it is naturally the best time to start the e-sports competition with the help of the "Looking for the Gunslinger" event.

However, Chen Feng was a little hesitant. The reason was simple. The two games were launched together, so players would naturally compare the two games together.

Now on many forums, there are already many big Vs in the game circle comparing the two games, and even some disputes have begun to arise between the players of the two games.

This is a very bad phenomenon.

Because these two games are made by Platinum Corporation!If the players of the two games dislike each other and engage in various rhythms with each other, it will greatly affect the future development of the two games.

Therefore, if Platinum Corporation held an e-sports competition for "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" at this time, but ignored "Cross Fire", then those loyal players and fans of "Cross Fire" would definitely be very upset .

It may even cause a large wave of retreat.

Chen Feng felt helpless, and at the same time began to reflect secretly.

The current Platinum Company is no longer the small workshop it used to be. The increase in the size of the company will naturally lead to an increase in the number of players and fans.

When the number of players is large, it is easy to have various rhythms. Once the response is not careful, it may affect the game.

Chen Feng cherishes every game he makes, and he doesn't want a good game to decline due to these external factors.

Chen Feng clicked on the diamond game forum, and glanced at some hot discussion posts in "Cross Fire".

"One thing to say, is the balance of "Cross Fire" really bad? I think this is just some sunspots deliberately discrediting it. "Cross Fire" is a VR game, and it wants to be as accurate as a certain computer game. , is naturally impossible.

You compare the frame rate accuracy of computer games with vr games, so why not compare the 3D immersion of our vr games with computer games?It's just a game on a plane, not a 3D perspective at all. "

""Cross Fire" also has a blasting mode. The game next door is just a defective product of our "Cross Fire". You have to compare with us. Do you have a biochemical mode? Garbage."

"Those who play "Cross Fire" are all idiot elementary school students."

"Damn! Primary school students messed with you! Primary school students can't play games anymore? I can only play games two days a week, and you play seven days a week, and you are no match for me!"

"I'm almost seventy this year, and I also like playing "Cross Fire" very much."

"I heard that "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" is already preparing an e-sports plan. A garbage game like "Cross Fire" can't even hold an e-sports competition."

"I&%&%&**your mother%&*&*&your grandma..."

Chen Feng read the comments for ten minutes, with a serious face.

In the current situation, it is really not possible to just hold competitions for "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive". "Cross Fire" also has hundreds of millions of players and fans around the world. Such a game is also worthy of e-sports competitions.

In fact, Chen Feng rationalized the weapons and shopping mall of "Cross Fire", minimizing the influence of krypton gold players on the game to the greatest extent.

Therefore, the balance of "Cross Fire" is relatively good. Even if it is not as good as "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive", it is no problem to create an e-sports competition for it.

However, the difficulty now is that the game "Cross Fire" is a vr game!

No matter in Chen Feng's previous life or in this world, there is no precedent for e-sports competitions in vr games.

How should this type of game be played?This is a big question.
