I’m Almost Losing to a Muggle

Previously, King of Kings was only tested in a small area.

After receiving all kinds of information and suggestions collected, and urgent development and sorting out, the current King has changed beyond recognition.

Under the influence of general manager Li Changwei, the entire team is constantly optimizing the user experience—he seems to have only this ability, and he talks about users.

On the whole, the biggest difference from National Super God is reflected in two aspects.

One is the optimization of the gameplay. Since its launch, National Super God has also been revised several times. The purpose of their revision is to make the game more exciting.

In other words, it is to adjust the game in a complicated direction.

But King is doing subtraction.

Some things that affect the user experience are all cut off.

The current King can be played casually.

Although a set of inscription system has also been created, the impact of the inscription system is not great. Players can accumulate it slowly. Even if you are full of inscriptions, you may not be able to win an inscription in singles.

The other is the degree of krypton gold.

If krypton gold can become stronger, then the degree to which The King becomes stronger is far behind that of All People Super God.

All that can be affected is adding a little attribute to the skin, and a little more inscriptions.

Li Changwei's thinking is different from ordinary people.

Su Xun of Wolong Studio, his strategy is to choose and optimize based on the player feedback of various mobile games.

There is nothing wrong with this approach.

All conscientious game manufacturers do this.

As long as you work hard, there will be some gains more or less.

But Li Changwei felt that this was not enough.

So he asked Su Xun not to just collect player feedback for his own game, but to collect other similar competing products as well.

The most important thing is of course All People Super God.

Several handsome guys, hello, we are the developers of Quanmin Chaoshen...

In the previous two months, Li Changwei went to battle in person, took hundreds of people who played the Miaomiao game, divided them into dozens of groups, and rushed to all parts of the country to visit shopping malls, parks, and stations.

Seeing someone playing games on their mobile phones, they leaned over to get close.

As for the person who claims to be a super god of the whole people...

That's right, they pretended to be the staff of the opponent's family.

Developer? Several young people were stunned.

The whole people are super gods and they are familiar with it. They are playing this game now, but they never dreamed that one day they would be able to see a hen laying eggs.

Yes, we are.

Is there... what's the matter? A few people were a little excited. They didn't know the super god of the whole people, so they naturally didn't know that it was a fake. If you really meet other people's developers, this kind of investigation means that it is beneficial.

Now we have an investigation, can I delay your time for a few minutes?

Okay.

When you play our game, what do you think is bad, whether it's the content of the game, or the operation, or what you want to have but don't have...

A few young people who were still a bit afraid to speak, immediately turned into chatterboxes when they heard such words.

Thank you, I wish you a happy game. After getting the desired information, several people from Miaomiao Game dropped a small gift and immediately disappeared, not even giving them a game currency.

In fact, they wanted to give it away, but what they wanted to give away was King coupons.

Dozens of teams have traveled all over the country, not only big cities, but even small counties and factories.

After all, the player group of the game is complex, and if you want to conduct a questionnaire, you must cover all aspects.

After a round of tossing and traveling, travel expenses, board and lodging, prizes, and various expenses, Miaomiao Games spent tens of millions on this matter.

If the opponent has something better than us, let's copy... ahem, no, it's learning.

In fact, this kind of game is always the same.

In 1998, StarCraft was released, and Blizzard Entertainment bound the map editor for the first time in a game produced and distributed by Blizzard Entertainment.

Using this map editor, a player named Aeon64 made a custom map called Aeon Of Strife, which is the prototype of all MOBA games.

In this custom map, players can control a hero unit to fight against a computer-controlled enemy team. The map has 3 soldier lines and connects the main bases of both sides. The goal of winning is to destroy the opponent's main base.

It is worth mentioning that this old map is still being updated in StarCraft II.

This StarCraft custom map is the predecessor of DOTA and the prototype of all MOBAs.

Even when LOL first came out, it claimed to be a DOTA-like game.

In fact, there is a game earlier than lol, and that is Demigod, unfortunately, the game encountered server problems when it was released, and many people could not connect online. It is precisely because of this problem that the game Demigod has not been able to become a strong competitor of the War3 map, and the game has never really become popular on a large scale.

It is DOTA2 and LOL that really make MOBA popular.

Since then, MOBA games have become the type with the most players on the PC platform and the most time spent by players on the game.

To a certain extent, these two games eased the decline of the era of Internet cafes.

In 2013, San Francisco-based Zynga launched Arena of Doom, a mobile MOBA game.

Then more and more mobile MOBA games began to appear.

There are too many things that can be copied and improved in The King.

At the beginning, Lin Dong didn't know about this difficult improvement process. He only knew that the game department tossed for two months and helped him lose a lot of money.

Investigation, development, optimization, testing...all of them cost hundreds of millions.

At this rate of losing money, it is more cost-effective than any movie investment.

For this reason, Lin Dong also suggested that Li Changwei recruit some people to be responsible for market and user research, and just run around all year round.

His job is so unstable, he has to go on a business trip at every turn, he can't eat well and sleep well, he can't spend time with his family, he can't be with friends, so it's not too much to give more salary and bonus.

The first time Lin Dong came into contact with the charm of this game was on the crew of The Mekong River.

The filming started early in the morning, from six o'clock to twelve o'clock, the director finally couldn't stand it anymore and decided to give everyone a lunch break.

After waking up, Lin Dong saw a group of people playing games together.

How do you know they are playing games...

It's simple, just make a noise while playing, and everyone knows they are playing a game.

So tired from work, how can you still have the energy to play games?

Could it be that he was playing the recently popular mobile game All People Super God?

Holding the mentality that the competing product is good, you are good, I am good, he is good, Lin Dong leaned forward: What are you playing? This is, the whole people are super gods, right?
