video?
Late at night, in the office area of the "Sen Meng" headquarters, in the director's studio, a woman with light pink hair turned her head from the computer desk, adjusted the glasses on the bridge of her pretty nose, and looked doubtfully when her assistant popped up on her phone. news.
She is currently busy designing the 29th and 30th floors, which are the most difficult levels behind the Zhuo'e Contract. She does not hesitate to work overtime for this. When she is so busy, her assistant still browses station C to watch videos?
The assistant on the other end quickly explained: "Director Lei, this video is about the Zhuohe contract you designed. It just became popular on site c half an hour ago. The uploader used a lineup in one go, starting from the contract ten From the eighth floor to the twenty-eighth floor.”
"That's it?"
The pink-haired woman sipped the coffee at the table and shifted her legs on the chair, obviously disapproving.
It's really powerful to hit ten levels in one breath, but it shouldn't be such a big fuss, right? Did you even send her a message specifically?
Until later the assistant added:
"That player all passed the level perfectly with the highest rating of "s+". I also watched the video. There are many techniques and ideas in it, which feel... very novel. I think it may be helpful to Director Lei's future level design. That’s why I disturb you so late.”
All s+?
After hearing this, the pink-haired woman finally became somewhat interested. It's really not difficult to reach the 28th floor in one breath, and she can do it, but if she wants to do it in one breath, she will always be evaluated with "s+"...
Lena asked herself, even as a designer, it is quite difficult. This is not just something that can be solved by operator training and lineup matching. It must require techniques and various micro-operations.
With such curiosity, Reina clicked on the video sent by her assistant and watched it carefully.
The video was not long, less than fifteen minutes, but the pink-haired woman at the desk watched it for more than an hour before it finally stopped playing repeatedly.
how to say...
Reina is now very grateful to her assistant for allowing her to see this video in such a timely manner.
Indeed, as the assistant said, the player's operations and techniques in the video are really eye-catching, and some of his ideas almost collided with hers at the beginning of the design, giving her a sense of connection.
For example, terrain killing, which has been ignored by many players before, and the special cooperation between some operators.
The player's control of the timeline and the layout of each front on the battlefield are also very exquisite. Even the combat video looks like a movie.
What makes Reina frown now is that the player's evil gameplay has created a death flow style of play, which even Reina, as a designer, could not have imagined.
To put it simply, for example, the CD of an operator's special move is 45 seconds, but the resurrection time after death is 37 seconds. If he comes back to play after resurrection, it only takes 5 seconds to release the special move, which adds up to 42 seconds. , which is equivalent to 3 seconds faster than waiting for the CD normally.
Don't underestimate these three seconds. In more difficult situations, every second can be said to be very critical.
Theoretically, this should be a bug and a design error on their part. They did not take this into consideration when designing the character at the time.
After all, all normal people think about is how to do everything possible to protect their characters from getting hurt.
The core of the game of "The Fall 2" is also about the deep comradeship between the protagonist player as a "contractor" and his contracted operators, working together to survive in the apocalypse, resisting monsters, and pursuing hope to save the world.
As a result, he is now destined to die...
What is this?
If it becomes popular, there will be big problems.
Thinking of this, Reina immediately got into a group with her assistant to discuss the solution. Finally, they finalized it and asked the programmer to add a little more, make a hot patch to temporarily fix the bug, call back the skill cooldown, and stop it from the source. Players behave like this.
However, for such a big matter, although Reina has the power to act arbitrarily as the director, it is best to ask her boss, who is also the original founder of "Sen Meng"...
Anno.
"Director Lei, isn't this not good?" The assistant in the discussion group looked at the clock that was almost two o'clock and wanted to stop it.
"What's wrong? We are only allowed to work overtime. Can't the boss work overtime and stay up late?" It can be seen that Director Lei has a very strong personality and does not care about the unspoken rules of the workplace.
"Yes, but Director Lei, Mr. An hasn't come to the company in the past few days. He said there seems to be something going on at home. I think it's better to forget it." The assistant still tried his best to dissuade him.
This time it worked.
Um?
Has Annuo not come to the company these days?
Reina has been busy designing game levels, and she really didn't notice this. Now when her assistant mentioned it, she realized that there was such a thing.
However, the pink-haired woman only hesitated slightly, and then decisively dialed Annuo's phone number after exiting the discussion group.
As his boss, Annuo reports emergencies on the one hand.
on the other hand...
Reina didn't know, she seemed to have an intuition in her heart, telling herself that she had to make this call tonight, and many times, Reina trusted her intuition.
All...
All...
All are all...
The phone rang for almost ten seconds, but there was still no answer.
Just when Reina was about to give up and hang up, the call was picked up.
"Hello... hello?"
The voice of Mr. An coming from the mobile phone was very soft and soft. This was the first time for Reina to hear Mr. An look like this.
However, Reina didn't pay much attention, thinking that Mr. An had just been woken up and was still staring in confusion, so she quickly explained with some apology:
"Mr. An, my name is Reina. I'm sorry to disturb you so late. I have something urgent to report to you. Is it convenient for you now?"
"Go on, it's okay..."
Lena: "..."
?
"Mr. An?"
Director Lei obviously didn't quite understand what Mr. An's "It doesn't matter if you continue" meant by him.
But soon Mr. An on the other side of the microphone also gave an explanation.
"No, it's nothing. I'm talking to the water pipe repairman next to me... Nana, just say what you want, I'm listening..."
pipe repairing?
The pink-haired woman glanced at the electronic clock on her desk, which read "two-thirty in the morning."
However, Reina listened carefully to the background sound from Mr. An's side, and she could indeed hear some noise.
Could it be that the reason why Mr. An took leave was that he needed to renovate his home?
Reina didn't think too much and went back to the topic. Since Mr. An said it was convenient, she then talked about the popular videos at Station C and their subsequent decision to use hot patches to repair them.
Mr. An, who was on the opposite side of the receiver, was between "hmm" and "hmm..." most of the time. It was not until the end that she made some insignificant suggestions. Overall, she was very sure of her decision.
Logically speaking, Reina felt that she should be happy to be recognized and trusted by her boss in this way.
But I don't know why...
On the contrary, the more Reina talked to Mr. An on the phone, the more upset she became, feeling very irritable.
Reina didn't know where the source of her feeling came from.
If you have to say it...
"Mr. An, is your signal there bad? I always feel that you... speak intermittently?" Reina couldn't help but ask.
"Ah! Yes, I'm sorry... maybe it was when I was repairing the water pipes that I bumped into... the network cable..."
Top to the network cable?
If the network cable is hit, shouldn't the network be disconnected directly? What does it have to do with poor signal?
Reina felt more and more something was wrong, and began to ask with a worried tone: "Mr. An, is your decoration going well? Do you need me to go over and help you?"
"Thank you, thank you Nana... It's late at night now, so don't come over. The master who repairs the water pipes is very skilled, um... he's very skilled, very good. We're going to have it soon!"
"While I'm away, ha... I'll leave the company and game matters to you Nana... As for me, I'll die first. Nana, thank you for your hard work!"
All...
All, all, all...
