Chapter 212: Glory is going to be popular?
"Are all of them out?" Pei Yunteng asked Han Yong as he looked at the professional players, most of whom had taken off their headphones and started discussing with each other.
"Not yet. It seems that Ye Xiu and Han Wenqing's group is still fighting." Han Yong took a look at the data.
Looking up at the contestants' performances, he couldn't help but sigh: "Have you ever learned prophecy? How come you can predict their next reactions so accurately?"
The test was less than halfway done, and looking at the players' dull eyes and confused expressions, Han Yong thought that the new version was completely ruined.
But Pei Yunteng was quite calm and comforted him by saying that these were normal phenomena when encountering a killer for the first time and they would be fine after a while.
Sure enough, as time went on, the contestants' expressions began to become more vivid, and heated discussions broke out in each testing room.
It wasn't just the warm atmosphere; Han Yong also saw many things in the eyes of these guys.
The excitement of seeing new things, the unwillingness to accept failure, and a strong desire to fight.
This made Han Yong feel a little dazed: How long has it been since he saw something similar in the eyes of these professional veterans?
Maybe the players in LPL don’t lack these, but it is hard to see the vitality of the players in Glory, whether it is live broadcast or other times.
Listening closely, the contestants were discussing heatedly:
"Really? It was just one strike away. If my silver weapon was still there, I would definitely have a chance to deliver the final blow before it gets bigger. What a pity!"
Wu Yuce was complaining to Li Xuan and was dancing with excitement.
When fighting the second BOSS, Wu Yuce, who had a tough fighting style, made the mistake that every Master of Suffering would make: being greedy for swords.
Li Xuan kept shouting about retreating in the channel. Although he was tortured by the BOSS and got angry, he insisted that he could take away the last bit of blood of the BOSS, and continued to hack and chop on the spot.
As a result, he ignored the fact that he was using a blank weapon, which had no bonus on attack speed and damage. In the end, the damage was just a little bit off, and he was smashed into a pulp by the BOSS.
As a result, he was defeated by the second BOSS, and after that he could only watch Li Xuan and the others suffer.
If it was just suffering, it would be fine, but the key is that in the process of killing these two BOSSes, this guy has gradually adapted to this rhythm and started to enjoy the fun.
However, when he was about to reach the peak of pleasure, he was chopped down by a knife, and Wu Yuce almost suffocated.
Li Xuan suppressed his laughter as he watched his old friend's long-lost excitement. For a moment, he said with a bit of gloating, "Who told you to be greedy for swords? Don't you know how many displacements our Ghost Swordsman has?"
Among the four great swordsmen, the displacement of the Swordsman and the Berserker is obviously much greater than that of the Ghost Sword and the Demon Sword.
Even though Wu Yuce, who practiced both formation and slash, also learned some common displacement skills for swordsmen, he was still no match for the other two melee masters.
With such mobility, he still dares to kill someone in close proximity. Isn't that courting death?
The frustration of being killed in battle and the embarrassment of being above him made Wu Yuce blush, and he simply gave up thinking: "Anyway, I will definitely not give it away for free next time!"
Just when the discussion about the two ghosts was in full swing, someone suddenly interrupted and said, "In that case, what do you think of the new mode?"
The two were stunned and looked to the side at the same time, only to see that the chairman of the alliance, Han Yong, had strolled up to them at some point.
Although they looked friendly and easy to talk to, their status made the two ghosts feel a little reserved.
However, no matter how reserved they were, the special experience they had before still left them with endless aftertastes. Wu Yuce answered first, "It felt very special!"
"To be honest, I was a little uncomfortable with fighting with white equipment at first. After all, the control feel was a lot worse, but after playing for a long time, it's actually okay."
"Those bosses, although their damage and health are abnormal, and they are annoying because they are not immune to control, but once you get familiar with them, fighting them is much more exciting than the previous bosses!"
"And those new mechanisms..."
Wu Yuce is not Huang Shaotian. It is rare for him to talk so much in front of outsiders. Today he seems to be very excited.
Han Yong listened to his thoughts and nodded repeatedly with a smile.
Just as Wu Yuce was talking until his mouth was dry and he was pouring water from the cup, another voice behind Han Yong asked with a little dissatisfaction: "Chairman Han, can I say a few words?"
Han Yong turned around and saw Dai Yanqi's face flushed with anger, looking at him unwillingly.
"We elemental mages are at a great disadvantage in this mode. As long as the teleport is on CD, we dare not attack the boss at all." Dai Yanqi felt very aggrieved when she thought of her previous experience.
Even though Pei Yunteng had already told them the correct way to deal with the situation, Dai Yanqi still had no gaming experience at all.
There's nothing you can do. The elemental mage's skill set has no human rights at all in this mode.
"They are obviously very fun modes, we can't favor one over the other!" However, Dai Yanqi also admitted that the new Honor mode is indeed very fun.
It’s just that the mage is not blessed enough to enjoy it.
Dai Yanqi's complaints immediately attracted the support of many professional players:
"Chairman Han, strengthen the Elemental Mage and reduce the CD of the teleport, otherwise there will be no mobility!"
"As for the healing profession, it's really useless in the face of this damage!"
"Don't forget our Judo! It would be too much of a shame if none of the many control skills were effective..."
Han Yong listened to everyone's complaints with a smile, nodding his head repeatedly: "We know what everyone thinks. This is just a trial version. We will have to revise it repeatedly in the future! Don't worry!"
“When the official version is released, I believe that all the issues you have reported will be resolved one by one!”
"Good!" I don't know who started the applause.
After a brief exchange with the contestants, Han Yong left the testing area and went straight to his office.
There, Pei Yunteng, who had left early, had been waiting for a long time, drinking tea.
"How should I put it? Is it getting rave reviews?" Pei Yunteng said leisurely.
"Almost. However, many players have reported that some professions do not perform well under the new mode." Han Yong scratched his head.
Although Pei Yunteng had explained it to him before, it was still a little vague.
So much so that he became a little curious about the baby again.
"The new version of Honor has received good reviews, you don't seem worried at all?"
"Why should I worry?" Pei Yunteng was calm.
“What if Glory could really be restored?”
Pei Yunteng took another sip of tea, stood up, and asked with a half-smile: "What do you think is the basis for Glory's rise?" Han Yong answered honestly: "The players have a high opinion of the new mode, and I can feel the excitement in their eyes."
"As it should be. Even though it's a patchwork monster, it has come up with a lot of innovative rules and patterns. It undoubtedly looks fresh." Pei Yunteng was not surprised.
"But, Han Yong, have you discovered one thing?"
"Please go ahead." Han Yong was already used to Pei Yunteng's way of speaking.
"Except for my special case, all the players you invited for this test are professional players, right?"
"Is there any problem?" Han Yong was stunned.
This is a new model originally created to serve the upcoming restart of Honor Esports. Who else should we invite if not esports players?
“Esports players have the understanding and skills, but the problem is that they are too skilled.”
"It is precisely because of the technology that they can maximize the fun that the new model brings them, the joy of finally succeeding after going through all the hardships."
"But what about ordinary players? Can you imagine the despair of not being able to defeat the first BOSS after hundreds of games?" Pei Yunteng's tone contained a hint of gloating.
The difficulty of Honor is already discouraging enough. Those who can adapt to that 3D first-person perspective action game have some talent.
Add some soul attributes to the BOSS?
So, apart from the professional players present here, how many audiences are there for this game?
Although it is not impossible for a game to have many cloud players, Honor’s weird profit model does not seem to rely on the game itself to make money.
However, with the further increase in the number of cloud players, how many people can understand the game scenes of Honor, which are already difficult to watch?
"So, the future of Honor will most likely be critical acclaim but not commercial success?" Han Yong didn't know why, but he suddenly felt that this game was very pitiful.
"Perhaps, this is the sadness of those who have creative ideas but fail to fully realize them." Pei Yunteng sighed slowly.
When the new mode of Honor is promoted on a large scale and ordinary players cannot play it because the threshold is too high, it will be time for his new games to appear.
This peach picking job... it smells so good...
……
Testing area.
Han Yong came around and left. Most of the groups had already finished the first round of experience, but there was only one group that was still fighting leisurely.
With the concerted efforts of the eight people, the BOSS that had tormented Tyranny and Vici Gaming for a long time finally fell to the ground, and Zhang Xinjie's cross happened to appear.
After the attributes were restored, the two sides finally started the final decisive battle.
If we only consider the combat power, the alliance of Tyranny and Vici Gaming is undoubtedly superior. After all, Wang Jiexi and Han Wenqing are indeed much stronger than Tang Rou and Qiao Yifan, two newcomers of Glory.
But unfortunately, Xingxin was well-rested and had better mobility, so they didn't get stuck like Tyranny did. Therefore, they killed more bosses and had better equipment.
In addition, although there was no treatment, there was an extra output position and the firepower was more powerful, so for a while the two fought on equal terms.
In the end, as Wang Buluixing completed a one-for-one exchange with Mu Yuchengfeng under the artillery fire, only two old enemies were left on the battlefield.
Han Wenqing, Ye Xiu.
At this time, the health of both of them had dropped to the dangerous line, but they were not in a hurry to decide the winner.
Even the two guys switched back to the same voice channel.
"Is this the last time we compete like this?" Ye Xiu asked.
"Probably." Han Wenqing didn't want to say more on this topic.
“But it doesn’t have to be that, right?” Ye Xiu chuckled.
Han Wenqing knew what he meant.
It is impossible for Ye Xiu to appear in the Glory arena in the future.
But Han Wenqing can appear in the LPL arena.
Here, Ye Xiu extended an invitation to this long-time enemy.
"Although this new Honor looks promising, I don't think Brother Pei is too worried. It's highly likely that it won't be able to develop."
"And in the final analysis, the new version has not completely solved any of the core problems that plagued Honor before."
Ye Xiu sentenced the newly born Glory to death with an extremely crude reason.
"This game isn't worth your time anymore, is it?"
Han Wenqing said nothing. He suddenly controlled the Desert Guyan and delivered a Tongbei Fist attack. "At my age, it's still a little difficult to try new things."
"Don't give me that! Don't think I don't know that the team led by Xiao Song and Xiao Qin from the LSPL is Tyranny's, right?"
"And you, the only famous top laner in the national server who has not yet appeared in the game, that's your account, right?"
Ye Xiu dodged while raising his spear and attacking with Hundred Dragon Meteor.
Just like his rapid-fire words, this meteor hit Damao Guyan hard, his blood was instantly drained, and Damao Guyan fell down.
“You have no chance in S1, just stay home and watch me win the championship.” Ye Xiu’s tone was still as annoying as ever.
"But in S2, I was originally planning to retire after winning the championship, but if you are willing to come, I will play for another year."
"Coming?"
"……Come."
Second update, good night everyone
