Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

《"League of Legends" has been online for more than a month now.

It's just that there has been no ranked ladder mode before, and many players actually expressed the hope that Chen Xu can open it earlier.

After all,"League of Legends" itself is a competitive game. Like"Warcraft", it is only for players who simply play games.

There are also some players who want to know where their true level is.

At this moment, many players were a little excited when they heard Chen Xu say that the ranked mode might be started soon.

Including the players in the experience store and the players in Yang Xin's live broadcast room, no one thought about what Chen Xu said before at this moment.

Instead, he immediately went to the official blog and the game community forum and sent a latest post, 'League of Legends is about to launch a ranked mode! '

As soon as these posts were posted, they immediately attracted the attention of many"League of Legends" players and fans.

And under Chen Xu's official blog, there are also a large number of players expressing their expectations.

But whether it’s a player in the experience store or a player on Chen Xu’s official blog, how can I ask?

Chen Xu did not reveal any more details, which made many players feel a little itchy.

But Chen Xu didn't make players wait too long, two days before the 15th.

Chen Xu announced an update on the"League of Legends" qualifying competition on the official blog.

First of all, for qualifying, we will adopt an allocation of different positions based on the same as in the previous life.

There are five different positions: top laner, mid laner, jungler, bottom lane and support. Of course, you can also choose to fill in the position.

To qualify for qualifying, you need to have 5 heroes who have reached level 4 proficiency.

Of course, if you have played 80 matches, you can also turn it on.

The human-machine game and the newly released Super Smash Bros. mode are not included in the 80 games.

At the same time, Chen Xu used a mechanism from the original"League of Legends" as a reference for the ban player mechanism in the qualifying match.

The red and blue sides each ban three heroes, because the current 35 heroes are not enough to support the 10BAN mechanism.

Therefore, Chen Xu will update a mechanism of 10BAN after the later version is updated and there are more heroes.

In addition to the other ranks in the game, there are still bronze, silver, gold, and this series of ranks.

But there is a difference.

That is, in the previous life,"League of Legends" was a model divided into various regions.

Each region has 200 king ranks.

Now, in"League of Legends" developed by Chen Xu, all players are on the same server.

There is no such thing as a different zone.

So this area has a more detailed division.

From bronze to diamond, it's the same as in the previous life.

Each small rank has 100 win points. After reaching 100 win points, there will be a promotion match. The small rank has a best of three games, and the big rank has a best of five games.

But after reaching Diamond, the Extraordinary Master will no longer have a 100 win point mechanism.

It's just like the ladder score in"Warcraft".

Players who rank 2000 in the whole server can get the title of the strongest king.

At the same time, players in the strongest king rank can display or hide a ranking.

Depending on the victory points, the ranking of the strongest king tier will also change.

As for the ranked mode, it is actually part of Chen Xu’s plan.

The current situation of 35 heroes is actually enough to support a content selection for qualifying.

At the same time, Chen Xu also wanted to put"League of Legends" into a regular state as soon as possible out of consideration.

According to a data released by Riot Games in the previous life.

In the previous life, the first explosive period of"League of Legends" was in the S3 period, and it reached a peak when it reached S5.

In addition to the S3 stage of"League of Legends", most iconic heroes have been born.

The most important thing is that after experiencing a development in S1 and S2, the game mechanism of"League of Legends" itself has been very clear at this stage of S3.

The basics of the gameplay have been well developed.

Not to mention the black technology in the game, after all, the game and the passerby are two completely different game experiences.

Just speaking from the game played by ordinary players, everyone can clearly understand how to play this game.

Games like"League of Legends" happen to require players to be able to play and understand the game in order to experience its charm.

In addition, Chen Xu himself also has thoughts on e-sports in the future. After all, the popularity of"League of Legends" and e-sports can be said to complement each other.

Therefore, Chen Xu also decided to start the ranked mode now to guide players to understand a content of the game as soon as possible.

Let a competitive environment in League of Legends get on the right track.

A player who pursues higher levels will naturally choose a mode of ranked matches.

At the same time, ordinary casual and entertainment players also have Super Smash Bros. and ordinary matching modes.

Moreover, the current number of players and the depth of the pond in"League of Legends" are enough.

Even if these two groups of players are divided, it will not have any impact on the current"League of Legends".

On the Internet and in the"League of Legends" forum, many players also expressed their expectations and excitement for this ranking update.

"It’s finally here, qualifying is finally here!"

"It’s much more formal than matching mode! BAN selects players, and unlike matching, there are no duplicate heroes. This will test the player's hero pool level!"

"This is good. Only in this way can we see the true strength of a player."

"Haha, I feel that the division of ranks is also very clear! Bronze, silver, and gold are all clear at a glance, but even this king has huge competition! At present,"League of Legends" has millions of players at least, right? Only the first two thousand people can get the title of the strongest king?"

"Otherwise, how can we be called the strongest king? I think the first 2000 are very scientific, right? Don't stop me, I want to be the king!"

"So here’s the problem? Who is the king?"

"Don't be ridiculous, hurry up and read Chen Xu's official blog! In addition to version updates, there are also new activities!"

"What new activity? Damn it! Mr. Chen is going to broadcast live again?"

"Let me go, it’s still true!"
