Over two days, Hector, Rachel, Anna, and several others at Nebula Gas had been developing the ZackRPG maps that Lucas gave them.
Right now, it's basically at the end of the developnt stage.
It's just that so parts still need to be made better.
"Aren't you guys going ho yet?" Lucas asked, looking at the people in the company, feeling a bit strange.
It's already ti to leave work, and there's no work that needs to be done quickly today.
"Um, today, Boss Lucas, aren't you streaming on SharkTV? We're just watching, watching." Hector said, smiling awkwardly.
Rachel, Anna, Edward and Lisa, including Ethan from the operations departnt, were all nodding like chickens pecking rice.
Hearing what everyone said, Lucas felt a little speechless: "You all have phones, why don't you just watch it on the streaming platform?"
They just chuckled a couple of tis, not explaining much.
Watching it live is different from watching the stream, right?
Shaking his head, Lucas didn't bother with them. He stretched and went to the project room. He did his "Monster Hunter: World" streams there before.
This ti, he had already talked to SharkTV beforehand. There was even a special official host and comntator.
At the sa ti, Lucas turned on the cara on his computer, so that others could see the keyboard and mouse. This was to avoid being unfairly criticized by competitors.
Entering the stream room, the screen was covered with lots of comnts.
Although it was still a black screen, it was clear that quite a few people were waiting to watch.
Then Lucas turned on the streaming software.
He didn't set up any delays or anything. The mont the stream was successfully turned on, the stream room showed Lucas's screen.
Instantly, the audience in the stream room went wild.
"Is that really Lucas?!"
"He's really going to play against professional players? I wonder if Lucas can win a ga tonight?"
"Feels like it's going to be hard!"
"Boss Lucas, how about we just give up on the Orcs, and pretend this never happened?"
Comnts flooded the stream room.
For the past two days, players everywhere, especially "Warcraft" players, had been discussing this event today.
Especially regarding Lucas's personal skill level, players had different opinions.
"Alright, everyone stop comnting. The the today is simple. You think 'Warcraft' has balance issues, but as the ga designer, I think it doesn't."
"So, the way to solve it is simple. After all, 'Warcraft' is an RTS ga with a high level of competition, so I'll just play against so high-level players, and you'll see if there are balance issues."
"Of course, it won't be like you all think, where I play all four races and get beaten badly from start to finish, and then say there are no balance issues. Today, I'm mainly going to show you the unique aspects of each race and so tactics. Right now, everyone generally feels that the Orcs are stronger, mainly because everyone has figured out the Orc tactics." Lucas said, joking. At the sa ti, he was already joining a ga room.
While chatting with the players, Lucas quietly opened the system and used the keyboard milk card he had pulled before. He wasn't sure if it was his imagination.
After using it, Lucas inexplicably slled a milky fragrance coming from sowhere.
At the sa ti, in the official comntary channel for tonight's "Warcraft" balance show match, SharkTV had two professional comntators introducing the general situation for tonight.
"Everyone knows about the show tonight. Boss Lucas, the designer of 'Warcraft', wants to play against professional players, mainly to respond to the current balance issues with the ga."
"Boss Lucas' idea is good, and I think what Boss Lucas said makes a lot of sense. After all, 'Warcraft' is a new ga. I played it for a while when it first ca out. Everyone isn't clear on how to develop the various races, so saying the balance is bad now, I think, is a bit hasty. Look, those professional players who play Humans, Night Elves, and Undead haven't said the balance is bad."
"But this show, I think Boss Lucas is going to have a hard ti today." Dylan, who is also a well-known RTS player, gave his judgnt at this ti.
"Mike, I think you're speaking a bit too soon. You still don't know Boss Lucas' level. What if he's very strong?" Sean next to him raised an objection.
"Oh no, it's impossible! Look at the opponents Boss Lucas is facing today. I suspect they're making things difficult on purpose. Look at who they picked? They're all the strongest players. There's Gourd, who didn't lose a single ga from the qualifiers to the group stage. His three-line control blew my mind. Do you know what the 'Warcraft' players are calling him now? He's not human, he's a god! He's GOD!"
"And there's Satellite, nicknad Lu Bu! Lu Fengxian! Also, the Leader also showed very strong dominance during the group stage. They're all incredibly strong!"
"Let's see who Boss Lucas is playing against in the first ga?"
"Oh no! He's done for! The first one is actually 'Soo!' Although he has more than twenty runner-up titles in his career, and he doesn't seem to be fully adapted to 'Warcraft' yet, his strength should not be underestimated. His main race is also Orcs, and his quick attacks won every ga in the group stage in under 15 minutes."
"Boss Lucas is in trouble! Sigh, I can't bear to watch!" On the comntary stage, Dylan sighed.
The comnts in the stream room were also full of crying emoticons.
Inside the ga room, Lucas and the first professional player he would face tonight were entering the ga.
At this ti, in a training room in a club in Magic City, a player nad Soo was a little nervous.
After all, his opponent tonight was no ordinary person, but the designer of the ga.
And in RTS gas, the difference between a high-level player and an average player is very big.
Like him, he got more than twenty runner-up titles. Was it just bad luck?
It was just that his skill was not as good as others.
If it was an ordinary player, he would just crush them.
But the key is that his opponent is Lucas. If he crushes Lucas too badly, what if the Orcs get nerfed badly?
Because he actually feels that the Orcs are strong mainly because many players are studying the Orcs.
At least when he plays against so Night Elf and Human players, the win rate is basically 60/40.
And you also have to consider the map.
But he also doesn't dare to intentionally lose.
After all, if he intentionally loses, and then there's news online that he was bought by Nebula Gas to fix the match, then things would be even worse.
Feeling very nervous, Soo entered the ga. Before the ga starts, there's a five-second freeze ti, giving players ti to think and for simple good manners.
After typing "GLHF" (Good Luck Have Fun) on the screen to each other, Soo made up his mind.
He decided not to worry about so much, and just play normally.
Back at the Nebula Gas project room, Lucas's mindset was pretty relaxed, and his thoughts were very clear. Clearly, the comntators on the main stage didn't have much faith in him!
Everything was developing very smoothly, but this item was a bit off. This milk scent was really strong.
