An Expert Is actually By My Side

Chapter 304 Understanding of Balance

Unexpectedly, someone has already set their minds on e-sports.

While Hao Yun was surprised, he couldn't help feeling relieved.

The players this year have a lot of imagination. Originally, in his plan, he had to wait a few months for Yunmeng Games to hold a World of Warcraft competition before the concept of e-sports would appear in this world. Thinking of all this was actually ahead of schedule.

But that's fine too.

Correspondingly, his plan can also be advanced.

Probably in the afternoon of the same day, Hao Yun's creative workshop account received a special private message.

This private message was sent from the say night that I played against him last night.

The wording of Say Ye was quite polite. After saying hello politely, he announced his home.

Hi bro, I'm say night.

It happened to be busy, Hao Yun typed back.

Hello.

Excuse me, I don't know if you still remember the game yesterday. At that time, I was playing Orc. You sent peasants to my house and knocked three towers.

Seeing this line of writing, Hao Yun replied jokingly.

I have a little impression, are you planning to come to me for revenge?

Although this proposal is very tempting, Say Eve, who has already shaved his head, has no confidence in winning at all.

After sending an embarrassing expression, Say Ye continued typing.

This... wait until I think about this game more, and one day I will compete with you again, and I will avenge my shame.

Really? Then I'll wait for you. Hao Yun typed a reply with a smile, although he didn't think that this guy had the slightest chance of winning.

The three militiamen he used that day to hit the tower flow was just for entertainment, but if this guy knocked a hole between the mine and the base, he wouldn't lose so badly.

Although this non-mainstream style of play looks very strong, in fact, few people will use it in regular games. After all, everyone is old-fashioned. GG is displayed on the screen.

He still hasn't used those really popular styles of play.

Not to mention those detailed micro-manipulations, such as cross-siege killing, small animal card position clearing, these operations that really determine the upper limit of a player's level, at this point in time, they are all bullying.

Want to beat him after only playing a few games of Warcraft?

Anyway, I have to play for a few years.

Let's not talk about this. Actually, I came to you today mainly to chat with you. Are you interested in joining my team?

Hearing this unexpected word, Hao Yun asked with great interest.

Team?

Thinking that hao12345 was moved, Say Ye hurriedly said while the iron was hot.

That's right, you can understand it as a team that has been playing games together for a long time.

Playing games can be played by matching in the game hall, why should I join the team?

As if guessing that he would ask this question, Say Ye continued typing.

The thing is actually like this. I discussed it with a few well-connected anchors, and I think that the game of Warcraft can indeed be done competitively, especially since the popularity of this game is rising recently. It should be very interesting to make it into a competition. It’s interesting, so we plan to hold two games to try. And this team is mainly established for the competition.”

Seemingly worried that he would refuse, Say Ye added later.

I can assure you that the prize money of the competition will definitely not let you down!

It's not just a bonus, if the game can get sponsorship and make a profit later, we can also pay you a salary.

It's okay to pay me.

Hao Yun couldn't help smiling, and continued typing.

Leave bonuses and salaries aside, are you cooperating with the official, or are you running the competition yourself?

Say Ye replied.

It is of course best to cooperate with the official. In fact, I am also planning to discuss this matter with the official. I have sent an email, but the other party has not replied to me. It doesn't matter if you really can't get sponsorship. , if we run the competition ourselves, at worst, I can pay the prize money out of my own pocket.

As the top anchor in the live broadcast area of ​​station B, he can still afford this little money.

However, Hao Yun didn't intend to make him spend money.

As a game company that brings joy to players, how can players pay for the games themselves?

Moreover, it is impossible for him to cede the right to host such a phenomenal event with unlimited future value.

It would be fine if the folk competition hadn't been held, but if it did, Yunmeng Games would hold an official competition at that time, and it would be hard to avoid people talking about it, saying that the official ran out to pick peaches because they saw that the folk competition was well organized.

In fact, from the very beginning, he planned to run this competition by himself.

After thinking for a while, Hao Yun politely rejected his proposal.

I'm really interested in the competition, but let's forget about the team. It doesn't matter if there is a bonus or not, and I don't need to make money by playing games. If I see a related event on the official website, I will naturally participate in it.

Looking at the reply letter on the screen, Say Ye had a dumb expression on his face.

It never occurred to him that he would be rejected even after offering such a generous offer.

However, the other party has already talked about this point, and if he insists on it, it seems to be meaningless.

After a moment of silence, Say Ye typed.

That's fine, maybe you don't like the prize money and the so-called salary of the game, I'm taking the liberty.

In any case, I am looking forward to meeting you on the field. I believe that next time I will definitely not lose so badly.

Without hitting him, Hao Yun typed and replied with a smile.

I am also looking forward to it. I hope that your operation will make my eyes shine next time.

After closing the private message window, Hao Yun thought about it and called Li Zongzheng.

The phone rang twice and was quickly connected, and a familiar voice came from the opposite side.

Hello?

It's me, Hao Yun continued after clearing his throat, I heard that an anchor named Say Ye sent an email to our official mailbox?

Email? Li Zongzheng was slightly taken aback, and said with a wry smile, You don't know how many emails we have received in the past few days... Just from this morning to now, we have added at least 3,000 emails to our mailbox , My colleagues in the marketing department and I only read more than 1,000 letters at a glance, and we couldn’t read them at all.”

so much? !

Hao Yun was stunned for a moment, and asked hastily.

Why are there so many emails? What are they?

It's mainly complaints, saying that the human defense tower is too strong, and you can't play without cutting it, Li Zongzheng said with a headache. I can't play it anymore. Today, 8 out of 10 people in the game hall are playing Terran. I watched a few battles, and they all played the same way. At the beginning, three militiamen ran to the opponent's house to knock on the tower... I don't know who it is This bug developed, damn it, this style of play is really disgusting.

Hearing this sentence, Hao Yun had an embarrassed expression on his face.

He also didn't expect so many people to imitate this kind of entertainment.

But thinking about it, the opponent he had lined up that day was also a top streamer, and there were at least hundreds of thousands of eyes watching him in the live broadcast room.

Even if 90% of the audience are cloud players, the remaining 10% of the players is not a small number.

How do you plan to cut it?

We have to find a way to suppress the defensive towers to come out after the second book. Otherwise, other players will not be able to fight at all if the Terran players play like this at the beginning. Li Zongzheng said decisively.

No, you must not change it like this, Hao Yun said quickly, Just change the city armor to heavy armor.

Change the city armor to heavy armor? Li Zongzheng was slightly taken aback, and said hesitantly, Would this... be a little unreal?

What's so unreal about this thing? Hao Yun said with a sigh, The balance thing is for the game itself. Also, let me tell you something, you have to remember it.

Li Zongzheng nodded seriously.

You say!

The balance adjustment is to balance the risks and benefits generated by the player's operation, rather than restricting the player's gameplay. You must remember this. We recognize that the Terran players start the game with three militiamen rushing to build towers, which needs to be adjusted. It’s just about the strength of the defensive towers, not about restricting human players to build towers at one time.”

What we want to do is a game that takes into account both entertainment and competition. The balance of neutrality must not be tilted. I hope you will keep this in mind.

After listening to Mr. Hao's words, Li Zongzheng's eyes gradually became enlightened.

I see what you mean.

Hao Yun nodded approvingly, and continued.

It's good if you understand. Also, back to the previous thing, you can check your mailbox later to see if there is any email with the word say night in the user ID.

If there is, you can reply for me.

Yunmeng Games plans to hold an official competition. We will announce the details of the competition and the rewards for the champion in the near future.

Competition? Li Zongzheng was confused, What competition?

Didn't I say it? What I want to do is a game that is both entertaining and competitive. Hao Yun smiled and continued, Now the entertainment is undoubtedly already there, and the next step is naturally the most The core competition is on!
