It didn't take long before the update was complete, and a capital letter 'L' appeared on the screen.
This icon was similar to Diablo, made with the first letter of the game's name. It gave off a plain feeling, but it was pretty cool.
Jia Peng double clicked on the icon to enter the game.
The login screen was pretty simple as well, it looked like an incomplete version. There was the League of Legends logo on the top left corner, with golden lettering in Chinese and English.
Legends. On the right was the login module, which could be used with the Thunderbolt Game Pass.
However, the main part of the login screen was empty, with a small line of text, "There should be a really cool GIF here."
Jia Peng was speechless, "… Manager, what are you doing?"
"The art resources aren't all here yet, so I'll just make do with it. However, most of the art resources are here, so it shouldn't affect the game. "
"Alright."
Jia Peng entered his account and entered the game.
Wen Lingwei and Chang Xiuya couldn't figure out what kind of game it was, so they entered the game with a lot of questions.
The layout of the game was pretty simple. On the top left was Start Game, Home, Career, and Collection. On the top right was the player's profile, currency, and shop.
The long bar on the right was the friend list, which could automatically import the friend information from the Thunderbolt Game Pass. If two players were friends with the Thunderbolt Game Pass, they wouldn't need to add each other again.
A simple game demo was playing on loop on the main screen.
Summoning crystals, towers, minions, elemental dragons, scenes of heroes fighting, a bird's eye view of the battlefield …
This was pretty confusing for Wen Lingwei and Chang Xiuya, but Jia Peng immediately realized the core gameplay of the game when he saw the bird's eye view of the battlefield.
"Manager, this game looks like 3c and COG?" asked Jia Peng.
Chen Mo nodded, "Yeah."
Chang Xiuya was a bit hesitant, "Then … never mind, I don't think I'll be able to get used to a game as difficult as Warcraft …"
"Don't worry, there's a very detailed tutorial, and it's much easier than Warcraft. You guys can play it too, no problem."
"Really? I'm very doubtful … "
Chang Xiuya still wanted to quit the game immediately, but she decided to give it a try because she was already here.
The layout of LoL was based on the new version of the game. The old version of the game wasn't bad, but it wasn't as cool. People like Chen Mo would definitely choose a better version.
Clicking on the "Start Game" button, there were a few options: "Training", "Human vs. Computer", "Player vs. Player", and "Custom Match". When the player reached the conditions to start the ranking match, "Training" would become "Ranking Match".
Of course, Chen Mo didn't plan on starting ranked matches in this patch.
These people were all new accounts, so other than [Training], the others were locked. They had to complete the tutorial before they could play other modes.
According to Chen Mo's plan, there would only be one server for LoL, so there wouldn't be the awkwardness of having to level up every time you switched servers. All players who logged into the game for the first time had to go through the tutorial.
As for those who switched accounts to play low-level games, they were not within the scope of consideration. This was because it was an activity that was not encouraged or even prohibited by the officials.
The game loaded very quickly due to the high specs of PC.
Chen Mo's LoL surpassed the standards of his previous life in terms of engine and graphics, but it was still a low specs game compared to the current PC specs. It was a far cry from the graphics card burning first person games.
The first thing Jia Peng noticed upon entering the game was the game's perspective.
It was a third person perspective, just like Warcraft and Diablo.
There was a tall and mighty hero in the middle of the screen, wearing heavy armor and holding a large sword that was very eye-catching.
Jia Peng wasn't used to this style at first glance.
Warcraft and Diablo both had a dark and realistic style, making them look very serious. However, League of Legends had a slightly more cute style.
It was obvious from this hero that his shoulder armor and large sword weren't of a normal scale, and were purposely exaggerated.
Moreover, the brightness and saturation of the screen was very high. It was even brighter and more comfortable than Diablo's High Heaven.
Although High Heaven was also very bright and glorious, it didn't feel real to the players, and didn't help to calm their nerves. However, in terms of setting, the High Heaven was the residence of the angels. It was a holy land that would repel mortals, so this style was more in line with the setting of the High Heaven.
On the other hand, the map in League of Legends didn't feel any danger at all. If you were to make an analogy, it would be similar to the Rainbow Barrier in Diablo.
The players' mental state would subconsciously relax, and they would no longer be on high alert.
A gentle female voice started explaining the tutorial.
"Welcome to League of Legends Beginner Training Camp."
"You are a powerful summoner in League of Legends, controlling different heroes to fight and emerge victorious in the end."
"The final goal is to break through the enemy's defenses and destroy the enemy's Crystal Hub."
"Your hero is Garen, the Strength of Demacia. Please right-click at the designated location on the map to control your hero's movement."
The screen kept changing along with the voice, showing the players information on the Crystal Hub, defense towers, heroes, and more.
This tutorial was also edited by Chen Mo.
In the original tutorial, the beginner training was done in the Chaos Abyss map. The tutorial also instructed the players to buy Armor of Thorns for Ai Xi, which was quite annoying.
Therefore, Chen Mo moved the tutorial to Summoner's Rift and changed the hero to Garen, to prevent the players from thinking that Ai Xi was a beginner hero.
Jia Peng clicked on the target location and Garen immediately walked over.
Next were some more normal tutorials, such as moving to the Fog of War, learning skills, game buttons, using skills, destroying defense towers, returning to the city to buy equipment, etc.
After that were some advanced tutorials, such as killing monsters, changing the view, and looking at the minimap.
There were hints on the bottom right corner of the map, such as dealing the last hit on the minions, gaining experience from getting close to the minions, and not trying to tank towers.
These were all too easy for Jia Peng as he had played Warcraft a long time ago. This wasn't even a tenth of what he had done in Warcraft.
Finally, as Garen destroyed the enemy's Crystal Hub, a huge victory icon appeared in the middle of the screen. At the same time, the cheers of victory made Jia Peng feel good.
He turned around to see that Wen Lingwei and Chang Xiuya were still fighting, not even taking down the high ground tower.
