Chapter 72 Gameplay Design
After Zhang Yichao heard Xu Ziqi's explanation, he seemed to understand the truth:

"You're right. For a game with a plot, the plot must be prioritized, and the gameplay should match the plot. The two must not be independent or separate from each other."

"Since Mr. Tang has determined the theme of the plot, it is naturally impossible for us to change the content of this theme, but we can add our own understanding on this theme."

"For example, according to what you just said, the protagonist is a team of ten people. During a special mission, he was framed by someone, which led to the leakage of information, and then the protagonist's team of ten people started his own survival. From this, our competitive confrontation was born."

Bei Weiwei nodded repeatedly after hearing Zhang Yichao and Xu Ziqi's interpretation, and added her own point of view:

"Actually, I think that what you two said is good, but if it is a competitive confrontation, then there must be an opponent in the plot. Then what is the identity of this opponent? It is a poor student who is extremely evil and heinous. People? Or injustice forces? These need some definitions.”

Xu Ziqi shook his head when he heard the words and replied:
"I think if the opponent is set as an evil force, what if the player is matched with the opponent's camp? It will be particularly unimaginative, and the team of players who are matched with the opposite side of the protagonist will definitely not want to be in this team. .”

"After all, in the story mode, everyone hopes to help the protagonist do things. As a result, you matched them with the opponent's team during the matchmaking. If I were a player, I would definitely kill this game with this setting."

Xu Ziqi does not agree with the definition of setting the opposite of the protagonist as a black and evil force.

Moreover, after Xu Ziqi raised this question, most of the people present also agreed with this point of view.

After all, when playing games, no one wants to play a villain. After all, in everyone's stereotypes, villains are synonymous with bad guys, and there is no more rebellion. Basically, there is no good ending in the play.

So if it is a plot mode, it cannot be set as a villain.

"However, if both parties are forces of justice, I'm afraid the players won't buy it if the two forces of justice fight, right? After all, this is somewhat strange." Bei Weiwei continued to reply.

After Zhang Yichao listened to the opinions of these two, he suddenly thought of his own idea:

"I think what they both said is very reasonable. First of all, the opposite of the protagonist must not be a villain, because if it is a villain, then the players who are matched with the villain team will have no game experience and will play. The method is completely brought into the game."

"Of course, if the opponent's camp is set to justice, then it is impossible to set the protagonist's side as a villain. If the protagonist becomes a villain, it will appear to be putting the cart before the horse. After all, no one likes villains."

"Since neither of these two options works, why not use the third option?"

"I think both the protagonist's camp and the opponent's camp can be forces of justice, but who said that forces of justice must not have conflicts?"

Everyone was obviously a little surprised when they heard this proposal. Both sides are forces of justice. Where is the point of conflict between the two sides?If there is no conflict, just such a mindless confrontation, what is the meaning of the plot?
"But if both parties are forces of justice, then the existence of the plot is completely meaningless, because if both parties are justice, and the two forces of justice fight each other, wouldn't both sides suffer?" Bei Weiwei replied.

"No, no, no, I think the game is based on reality, but it transcends reality. Only such a game can have both a sense of reality and entertainment." Zhang Yichao continued to answer.

"Based on reality and beyond reality? Then how to achieve this?" Xu Ziqi asked.

"It's very simple. Two forces of justice can be in conflict for one thing, or for a certain thing."

"Who said that conflicts between justice forces cannot occur? As long as there are reasonable reasons for conflict, conflicts between justice forces can also occur."

"But the theme of this game is the way to survive. If you want to survive, just to fight for a certain thing or a certain thing, then the rationality of this thing becomes very important." Xu Ziqi continued to answer.

"Then what if this thing is related to the survival of a power?" Zhang Yichao replied with a slight smile.

"So, Yichao, do you already have a general idea about the plot of this game?" Xu Ziqi asked.

Zhang Yichao nodded and replied:
"That's right, actually I think the story mode of this game is the essence of the game, can we design it like this?"

"The protagonist and his ten-member team are employed by the special team of country C, and they are the top forces of country C. This time, because they were ordered by their superiors, they are going to country T to perform a special task. Important documents, and take it back to country C safely."

"But during this process, because someone was jealous of the protagonist's ability, he disclosed this information to country T. After the intelligence department of country T verified the matter, he decided to send his own elite force to destroy the protagonist's power."

"When the protagonist arrived in country T, he realized that he had been tricked. The communication signal was lost and he couldn't get in touch with his superiors."

"In order to preserve his strength and complete his mission, the protagonist started a self-rescue operation in country C. During this process, he clashed with the extermination team of country T, so as to preserve his own strength."

"And in the victory and defeat of team competitions, if the T country team wins, then the T country team will get the corresponding gold coins, which can be used to buy weapons"

"And if in the team competition, the protagonist's team wins, then they will get key props to promote the development of the plot. This prop can open the next stage of the plot."

"Not only that, we can also add a ranking mode to this game. The ranking mode is the highest honor for players in this game. The higher the rank, the stronger the personal strength."

"Then there is a problem, what about weapons? How to solve the problem of weapons? If the weapons are equal, then the plot mode will be a little out of balance." Xu Ziqi continued to ask.

"The problem of weapons is also very easy to solve. According to the different teams selected by the players, the weapons that can be selected by the players are different."

"For example, the team that chooses the protagonist can only get weapons such as pistols, daggers, and submachine guns."

"But players who choose the T country team can drive armed helicopters and heavy weapons, including individual missiles."
