A relaxed game rhythm was the key factor that allowed PlayerUnknown’s Battleground to stand out from all the other FPS games.
The biggest problem faced by traditional FPS games and Overwatch was exhaustion.
!!
“They were tunneling at any moment, and they could discover the enemy at any time, so the players ‘minds were always on high alert. Only when they died could they rest for a few seconds, and then they had to continue fighting. ”
“Although players in the Overwatch might not be instantly killed, they still had to maintain a high level of concentration. Number 76 was either Tutu Tutu or running. ”
“In PlayerUnknown’s Battleground, searching for resources, running away from the blue circle, and shooting were all overlapping tasks. The players were very relaxed during the search for resources and the running of the blue circle. This kind of relaxation made it less likely for the players to get tired. ”
“It was for this reason that PlayerUnknown’s Battleground became one of the games with the best livestreaming effects. The streamer had more time to chat with the audience when they were searching for things or running away, unlike other FPS games where the streamer would not have time to say anything when he was playing. ”
Team cooperation with moderate intensity referred to the role of an individual in the battle.
“In other words, there had to be a good balance between an individual and a team. The team should provide convenience for the individual, while the individual should not be dragged down by the team. Instead, he could rely on his strong individual ability to lead the team to victory. This was a good relationship. ”
“On the other hand, the reason why Overwatch was not friendly to individuals was because the team completely crushed the individual. ”
“In traditional FPS games, if you had good marksmanship, you could take on five people at once. ”
“In League of Legends, if you had good skills, you could s...o...b..ll and fight one against five. ”
“However, in Overwatch, you could not fight against five people at once under any circ.u.mstances, unless the opponents were five r.e.t.a.r.ds. ”
“The more important the party’s role was, the less tolerance the players had for their teammates. Just like in “”Overwatch””, once they were beaten up by a pair of players, everyone’s first reaction would be to immediately curse at 76. ”
“In traditional FPS games, although teammates were more important, it was not to the extent that the game would be completely lost just because there was one less player. ”
“In PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, the requirements for teammates had been greatly reduced, and it had never been so easy to carry a teammate. In League of Legends, bringing a noob might end up killing too many enemies. But in PlayerUnknown’s Battleground, as long as the noob followed you obediently and avoided crowded areas, it was not a problem to survive for a while. ”
“To put it simply, the Overwatch Vanguard was a game that could not be played with more idiots, but the game of PUBG was a game that became more fun with more idiots. ”
“Therefore, the atmosphere in PlayerUnknown’s Battleground was relatively good. There was not much hostility in the game, and there were basically no complaints about teammates. Because even if your teammates died on the ground, you could still win the chicken dinner alone. ”
“As for the rich excitement and enjoyment points, it meant that PlayerUnknown’s Battleground had more exciting aspects compared to other games. ”
“Picking up good items, living long, finding the right vehicle, killing someone, successfully entering the safe zone, picking up an airdrop, helping his teammates, winning the chicken dinner … ”
They were all pleasurable points.
The fun accompanied the game from beginning to end. Just the process of picking up a fully equipped car was enough for players to have fun four to five times.
“As for getting a chicken dinner, it was enough for most new players to enjoy it for three to four days. ”
“Other than that, another important point was that PlayerUnknown’s Battleground had balanced the needs of hardcore players and fringe players. ”
Hardcore players loved guns and liked to win by improving their marksmanship.
“The fringe players were afraid of guns and wanted to win in other ways, such as hiding. ”
“Therefore, traditional FPS games were a paradise for hardcore players. It was difficult for the player base to spread because players on the fringe did not want to practice their marksmanship day in and day out. It was also difficult for them to experience the fun of FPS games. ”
“One of the problems of Overwatch was that the gaming experience of hardcore players was not necessarily good, because sometimes, the restraint of the lineup would make marksmanship useless. ”
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds was different. The designer’s idea from the very beginning was to allow most players to win in a way that they were good at.
“They could use guns, they could LYB, they could arrogantly try to stop a fight, they could also hide in the house and not come out. ”
“Different players could adopt different strategies in the game. Players with good marksmanship naturally had a great advantage, and players with bad marksmanship also had a great chance of winning. ”
It was also because of this and the team relationship that was mentioned before that PlayerUnknown’s Battleground was able to spread very quickly. The player base continued to expand and the fish pond became deeper and deeper. This ensured that most players could enjoy the fun of the game.
“As for PUBG Mobile games, adding robots into the game was actually a way to expand the fish pond. ”
“In addition, PlayerUnknown’s Battleground was a game with very little negative feedback. ”
“In other FPS games, if you were a noob, you might die very frequently. In blast mode, once you died, you could only be an observer throughout the game. ”
“In Overwatch, it was even easier for one’s mentality to explode when one was blocked at the door. ”
“However, PlayerUnknown’s Battleground was different. Novices would usually jump to places with fewer people to avoid battle and search for items. Even if they were killed, the survival time of the items they searched for was also very interesting. ”
“Of course, there were also many noobs who would die on the ground, but the more they died, the lower their points would be, and they would be matched with weaker opponents. ”
“After dying, they could immediately restart a game. Most players would quickly forget the previous unhappiness and think that they would definitely play better this round. ”
……
“After deciding on the development plan for PlayerUnknown’s Battleground, Chen Mo still had some details to improve on. ”
The Pangu system was a very powerful physical catalyst and also a very powerful game AI.
“Making robots in the game and determining the level of the robots based on their performance was obviously a way to increase the depth of the game, but it was too low-end for Chen Mo and wasn’t interesting at all. ”
Chen Mo was thinking about something else.
“All FPS games were plagued by external hacks, and it was the same in parallel world. ”
“Previously, there had been a large-scale hacking incident in ‘Overwatch’. Although it had subsided for the time being, it was clear that hacking was not something that could be stopped despite repeated prohibitions. ”
“In fact, cheats were equivalent to a battle of wits and courage between programming G.o.ds. Nowadays, many big live streamers were more or less suspected of cheating. It was just that they used high-end custom-made versions, which cost sky-high prices, and updated very frequently, so it was difficult to find out. ”
“Even though Chen Mo used a brutal method to ban all low-end cheats, there were always some high-end cheats that could fool the VR gaming pod’s detection. ”
“If PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds was as popular as in his previous life, would the problem of cheating appear again? ”
“If a large number of cheats appeared, it would be unrealistic to count on manual verification. In that case, could artificial intelligence replace the GM and become the law enforcer in the game? ”
