Super Game Empire

Blizzard and others looked at Yang Yun and slowly found something was wrong. Yang Yun's face was not only not happy or affirmative, but instead showed a depressed and helpless expression.

Yang Yun sighed: "I don't know how you thought of the turn-based idea, but I can only say that Diablo is not adapted to this mode!"

Blizzard and others were stunned. They thought for a long time that Longteng acquired them. Didn’t they let them make games for the TV game platform? And it is obvious that the gaming performance of the SS platform far exceeds the PC performance under the DOS operating system.

Their artist strongly recommended making the SS version and successfully convinced everyone, but unexpectedly they were rejected by Yang Yun.

Yang Yun explained: "Give up the turn-based system and change it to real-time mode! I don't need to step on landmines, I don't need to fight back and forth. Players only need to control a hero, use practices similar to those in fighting games, get close to each other,

Strike, or use various dazzling melee moves. If it is a ranged profession, then calculate the coordinates between the player and the enemy, so that magic or arrows can produce moving animation effects."

Marcos and David discussed it and it was not impossible to do this. It was changed to real-time combat mode, which can retain their current enemy approach settings, but remove the turn combat module and use a real-time calculation program to calculate the enemy's health.

It's right.

"Do you really need to change this?" Marcos also wanted to fight for it, and change it into real-time combat, and many systems were to be pushed down and redone.

Yang Yun nodded: "Yes, you must listen to me in this. Marcos, I told you and Eric just now. I hope you vultures, which is the Blizzard now. Continue to keep you European and American

The thinking and inspiration of employees do not need to consider how our other games are made. I need you to have your own characteristics, not the same thing!”

Marcos asked: "But if it is made into a game, such as a wizard, we need to determine the magic trajectory based on the player's casting angle and direction. Whether it can hit the enemy needs to be calculated, and many systems need to be changed."

Yang Yun said: "Repositioning requires accurate coordinates, so I was just asking you, how much difference is there with the mouse in controlling the cursor positioning of the SS handle and the mouse? If you can use the rocker instead of the mouse, then

Diablo" can be produced on the SS platform, and if not, it can only be produced on PC.”

Marcos, Eric, David. These three main designers were speechless. They suddenly felt that they had lost their autonomy when they joined Longteng. The settings they thought were all pushed down by Yang Yun.

None of them was adopted.

And they don’t know whether the game background framework they have worked hard to set, the game interface and game characters, will also be greatly modified by Yang Yun, and they can only take one step at a time.

From a selfish perspective, SS is of course the best gaming platform. If Diablo 1 competes with Sony PS on the SS platform, it will definitely give the other party a heavy blow, so he leaves Marcos with a chance to test and verify.

Longteng has a ready-made SS platform development toolkit. Yang Yun asked Zhang Guoqiang to send a senior programmer to communicate and cooperate with David. It took an hour to start a new demo of the SS platform. It can modify the code on the test machine while

Check the effect.

Marcos held the handle and pushed the thumb on the rocker with his left hand. The cursor on the TV screen responded and moved a little slowly.

"Improve the response speed!" Marcos asked David to modify the source code. Then he reconstructed the running program. The modified cursor reacted much more sensitively. Gently push the rocker and the cursor can fly from the far right side of the TV screen to the speed of the right side of the TV screen.

The far left side.

Yang Yun took the handle and tried to move for a while. At first, he was definitely not used to this operation method. The mouse is so convenient, and it is a mouse that can release spells with the left and right mouse buttons.

Of course, the keyboard is also very useful, including shortcut keys from F1 to F8, keys such as 1234 for quick drug use, M opens the map, W switches the main and secondary weapons, etc.

Develop a dedicated mouse and keyboard peripheral for the SS platform? Then make Diablo 1 a game that supports the response of keyboard and mouse devices?

Doing this triggered the foundation of the TV game! Yang Yun was not sure whether it was suitable for doing this for a while.

TV game consoles do not support PC hardware, keyboard and mouse, and PC consoles do not support controllers and rockers. This is a tacit understanding between two different game platforms, and everything is a subversion of interests.

What Yang Yun knew was that Sony was reluctant to launch Sony's dedicated keyboard and mouse until it developed the PS2, using a USB interface, and the equipment was very expensive.

In addition, all PS platform game production companies are accustomed to using supporting game development packages to design, without spending manpower and financial resources to develop keyboard and mouse functions. This can shorten the R&D cycle, reduce R&D costs, reduce game prices, and achieve higher

sales volume.

Although Sega, Nintendo, and Sony are fighting to the death, they still have a unified understanding in this regard, and no one develops keyboard and mouse peripherals.

It took Nintendo and Sega ten years to fix the consumers' gaming habits in the living room at home. European, American and Japanese players have become accustomed to tilting on the sofa and controlling the game comfortably with their handles.

If these players find that the mouse and keyboard can bring a different gaming experience, and it is more convenient, and can travel around the world with one mouse, and the keyboard shortcuts are much more convenient than the handle, they are likely to leave the sofa and walk out.

The living room, enter the study room, and enter the camp of PC games.

After the PC enters thousands of ordinary households and players are familiar with and rely on PC operating habits, it is quite difficult to summon these players to the living room again!

"What do you think? How does the rocker and mouse respond in terms of cursor response speed?" Yang Yun decided to listen to the opinions of others first.

Several people used to adapt to the handle for a while, and said that there was no big problem.

Yang Yun decided to put this problem aside first and turn to another small detail that made him tangled.

"Don't worry about the platform first, let's go back to the game, David, have you made a professional character demo of the game?"

David nodded and opened another program on his PC.

This is the login interface of Dark 1. Diablo's printed words are simply cute and simple. There is no burning flame or the momentum that comes to your face. But considering that this is just a demo, Yang Yun lets go of this detail.

Single player mode, multiplayer online mode, help, and exit, these four options.

After entering single player mode, three profession names appeared in front of Yang Yun. Yang Yun shook his head and said, "Marcos, not enough, 3 heroes are far from enough. I remember you mentioned the druid, barbarian, assassin, death

Why don’t you use the five professions of Spirit Mage and Witch?”

Marcos explained: "According to my ideas, the barbarians, assassins and monks, we do it in the expansion pack, so that the game can be continuated and lasting attraction."

Yang Yun shook his head: "Give up this expansion pack, it doesn't make any sense to do this. It's enough for us to do all the content at once. In Dark 1, in addition to warriors, Rogers, and witches, the profession of monks is added.

Barbarians, Assassins, Druids and Necromancers, and if there are more, we stay in Dark 2 to add."

There are also Amazon and Paladins in Dark 2. After the seven major professions gather, the Dark World is full of infinite charm!

Marcos agreed that the profession of monks was a believer he made up, and he was a karate master. In addition to the sticks exclusive to monks, as long as he took other weapons, his attack power would decrease.

Just after saying that, Yang Yun couldn't help but smile and said, "Seeing the monk reminded me of a "Famous General" arcade game designed by Longteng a few years ago, which contained a Shaolin Stick Monk Marcos. If you can make this hero

I would be very happy to connect with the mysterious East!”

Everyone laughed, and the public speech by President Long Teng not long ago really made the world rejudgment him.

Yang Yun is a Chinese. He has added as much Chinese actors as possible without affecting the plot of the movie. This kind of thing he said was openly not only not making others feel abrupt, but instead admired his straightforwardness and true nature.

Marcos half-jokingly said, "Mr. Yang, if a monk is not enough, I can let the demon-subduing Taoist priest in the Eastern Fairy Tale join as an adventurer..."

"Ahem..."

Yang Yun couldn't stand this kind of naked flattery. In the laughter of others, he waved his hand to reject the proposal: "It's better to do your Western magic well! Oh, that's great! You actually know the Taoist priests in China..."

After joking, all the characters are confirmed, and the following are the game skills and small details.

The launch of "Diablo 1" has almost affected the entire European and American gaming industry. In many online and stand-alone games in later generations, the shadow of Diablo 1 can be seen, such as the red and blue bottle supply, package, and human equipment components on the belt.

Dividing and so on.

Of course, Yang Yun would not miss these. The Heradik block is a space treasure that appears in Dark 2. So in order to solve the problem of Dark 1's shortage of luggage, he added the backpack system in World of Warcraft.

Of course, there is no tailor and you can't make a bag. You can only buy it at a high price at a grocery store, or kill the enemy's humanoid boss, and there is a certain chance of dropping it.

As for runes and gems, that is the most proud thing in "Diablo 2: Destruction". Runes Words are the tireless pursuit of many Dark fans. Let's stay in the next version to surprise players!

After all these were confirmed, Blizzard and others began to refine the plot and map drawing, and the project of Dark 1 officially began.

When Yang Yun returned to his office, he had to consider whether it was necessary to develop SS-specific keyboard and mouse peripherals!
