I Developed Battlefield to Drive Players Around the World Crazy

Chapter 404: Global Explosion

Domestic and foreign, major live broadcast platforms, and video platforms are almost all occupied by apex-related content.

In just one day, the number of apex players has exceeded 50 million.

Of course, this number has a lot of water.

After all, apex is a full-port game that has landed on VR, NS and PC.

And apex itself is also a free operation strategy.

But in any case, one thing is certain, that is, the popularity of apex so far is simply explosive.

The new concept of battle royale gameplay is completely different from some previous FPS games.

Coupled with the excellent shooting feel and action from "Titanfall".

There are also legendary legends with the same characteristics as "Rainbow Six: Siege".

And every game has a fresh experience, which attracts a large number of players.

Even because of the popularity of apex, there are many other types of FPS games on the market.

There has been a lapse in the number of players.

It even includes "Battlefield", "Call of Duty" and "Rainbow Six: Siege" under Nebula Games, these FPS games.

Of course, because of the subject matter, the number of these gamers has not passed by much.

After all, with the same FPS game, its core is still a little different.

But for some other game makers, their traditional types of FPS gamers are relatively large.

The popularity of apex has also caused heated discussions among players and the industry.

"apex is crazy! Is this so-called battle royale game so mysterious?

"In two days, the number of registered players exceeded 100 million? It's too exaggerated!"

"It's no exaggeration, you haven't watched other FPS games, and almost all players have gone to APEX."

"Not only FPS games, do you think other types of games are not affected?"

"It can only be said that it is Chen Xu, this is a slap in the face! It is said that FPS games have basically been finalized, and now a battle royale type has been created.

"I can't say too much now. After all, the game has just been launched. Whether this kind of battle royale game is a short-lived or a long-term operation is hard to say. Don't forget the multiplayer mode of "Titanfall"."

"Indeed, although it seems that Chen Xu has been preparing for the APEX game for a long time, the multiplayer mode of "Titanfall" is really cool and inexplicable."

"Yeah! The multiplayer mode of "Titanfall" really doesn't understand why it didn't catch on until now.

"Let's look at the freshness of the past, what is Apex's retention of players, and there is only one map, maybe players will get tired of playing for ten or twenty hours?"

Many designers in the game industry have various discussions about the explosion of apex.

Opinions are also different. After all, although this apex is extremely popular, on the one hand, it is a blessing for free operation, and on the other hand, it also has "Titanfall" as a lesson.

Therefore, whether it can maintain this hot momentum, many people feel that it remains to be discussed.

It's just that many game industries didn't expect that apex and battle royale modes are far more popular with players than they thought.

Take the map as an example, many people think that a map may soon be boring for players.

But in fact, the map is not the key at all, the real key point is the experience of each game.

Just like "Battlefield" and "Rainbow Six", why do they keep switching maps?

Because whether it is Cailiu or the battlefield, even if the details are different, in many cases it is roughly the same.

The former defender arm, and then frame points.

Maybe even after two or three rounds, on the same map, your defensive points are exactly the same, and there will not be the same subtle tactics as professional games in the passers-by game. A whole new map to adjust.

The same is true of the battlefield. In most cases, it is not the tactics of which side is more advanced, but who has fewer mistakes and more teammates who can play.

Therefore, this traditional FPS game will not allow players to play on the same map for too long.

And apex, or battle royale games, is completely different.

A map that is large enough allows players to choose any point, which is equivalent to changing the map every game, and the ever-changing route of the spacecraft actually allows players to change maps subtly.

Even if the player doesn't care about 3721 in every game, he always jumps in one place.

But no other team will dance with you on this plate, or make dumplings.

This brings different variables. Even if there are no players, the last one has no gross resources, but this one has a gold bag and a golden shield. This is a completely different experience.

It seems that every change, but in fact it is not a new experience.

This is also the most interesting part of the battle royale game.

In the blind eye of the industry.

The various data of apex did not even fall, but kept rising.

Even a more special country like neon prefers some casual, unique styles and very exclusive countries.

Apex has become its popular game, occupying nearly 50% of the current market share, a rather exaggerated figure.

It is no exaggeration to describe it as a global explosion.
