Build a game empire from scratch

Lin You didn't even have time to pay attention to the game's release mode that he had never seen before, causing players to talk about it.

All day Thursday, he stayed in the Xiajing Capital Museum.

In the morning, I received relevant training with Zhu Cixia. In the afternoon, with the "assistance" of many staff members, I sorted out all kinds of antiques that could be used.

It is really impossible to get started directly, and without any isolation, it is almost attached to the eyes, and it is enough to see it at a super close distance.

Many people think that all antiques are extremely fragile. Not only will they shatter when touched, but even exposed to the air environment, they will suffer irreversible and serious damage in minutes.

But this idea actually has a lot of errors.

There are indeed such antiques, ancient rusted metal, decayed bamboo slips, paintings with special paints that fade with time, and so on.

But there are also many antiques, which are much more durable than ordinary people imagine.

In particular, porcelain, seals, cloth, calligraphy posts, well-preserved swords, and even bronzes are unlikely to be oxidized and damaged after being exposed to the air for a few seconds.

In the preview session of many antique auctions, most of the collections are open to the public to visit casually.

Even if you have no money and don’t participate in the auction, you can buy a ticket for tens or hundreds of dollars—some don’t even need to buy a ticket, you can just go in and look at it. Porcelain can also be studied in your hand.

Of course, you have to be extremely careful, don't accidentally drop it, it's over...

And it's not just porcelain, even famous paintings worth tens of millions or hundreds of millions are sometimes hung on the wall without glass protection, so that buyers can see them casually.

From this point of view, Lin You spent 500 million just to experience the beauty of these ancient artifacts up close, which is really similar to doing charity.

But after a busy day, even though his back hurts, Lin You still feels it's worth it.

Not only did I get the sensory data I wanted, but the [Virtual Xia Jing] team recording team I brought also recorded a lot of precious data.

——For the data part, the [Virtual Xiajing] project team will pay extra.

This is also a considerable amount of money.

However, this part of the money, Lin You will not be included in the development cost of [Virtual Xiajing], but will be included in the cost of building the [Virtual World Material Library] just like [Ancient Architecture Records] and [Wildlife Ecological Reserve].

He has always been willing to spend money on this aspect.

When I left the museum with Zhu Cixia, it was already the museum's off-duty time.

The excited expression on the little princess’s face has not dissipated, and the whole person is still in a state of excitement—considering that her first major is art, and today she enjoyed a large number of precious, beautiful and amazing paintings at a very close distance , Lin You can completely understand her state.

The little princess still pulled Lin You, and insisted on treating him to dinner.

When Lin You returned home, it was almost 8 o'clock in the evening.

Looking at the time, I felt that it was not appropriate to disturb Lu Wei at this time, so I decided to postpone the verification of the couple in the virtual world.

Considering that Lu Wei was still busy with NetDragon yesterday, he didn't bother.

"Tomorrow won't work either. I'm busy with the launch of "Battlefield", so I might as well wait until next week."

Lin You put off his work with peace of mind, and then began to practice boxing at home to make up for the homework that he missed today.

Fortunately, the training plan has come to an end. In the recent cold weapon sparring in the virtual world, Xu Chun and him are sparring with all buffs removed.

The next step is to add pain.

The next step is to enter the real confrontation, transitioning from training equipment to real cold weapons-of course, the kind that does not have a blade.

The confrontation effect at this stage will determine whether Lin You can get to the [blade confrontation] stage he wants.

In fact, if it was just a non-blade confrontation, there would be no need for such a long period of training—after all, Lin You didn't want to win, but just to gain experience.

But for a real guy who wants to play with the blade, it's completely different.

Even with such a long time of training, this is an extremely dangerous behavior, so that Lin You never mentioned it to Yue Pengju.

Until now, Yue Pengju thought that he would fight with a full set of protection in the end.

But in fact, in the non-blade confrontation stage, Lin You will continue to reduce the coverage area of ​​the armor and start to risk his life.

Until the end, only wear armor at the Achilles' heel.

As the final stage is getting closer, Xu Chun has shown obvious anxiety, which has recently developed to the point of persuading Lin You to give up the final stage of confrontation with blades.

Or at least: put on a full suit of armor.

Xu Chun's original words were: "Even if you wear Tang Dynasty armor! Anyway, there will be armor in the game, right?"

But that's too bulky, not airy enough, and doesn't have that deadly sense of urgency against cold weapons.

And what Lin You wanted was exactly that.

That kind of cold killing intent will become the key to shaping the realism and immersion of the entire combat experience.

For this reason, Lin You was shocked by how hard he worked.

——This is not because he is self-disciplined, but because he is afraid of death.

At noon the next day, there were still two hours before the official release of "Battlefield".

On the Internet, there is already a strong sense of anticipation brewing.

Under the topic of "Battlefield" by Consonance, one post after another was refreshed, and the Vortex Forum [Battlefield Section], which had been built long ago, and the dedicated forum of Yunmeng Game Platform also appeared one post after another.

From morning to now, the speed of new developments and new posts has been accelerating, and the enthusiasm for discussions has also continued to increase.

In a "don't you all go to work? 』, the comments from netizens are densely packed:

"Work? Fuck!"

"Which game is more important than going to work?"

"I went directly to the supervisor with the leave slip and resignation letter and asked him to choose one himself!"

"Good job! Hesitating for a second is disloyal to the game!"

...

The fanaticism of the players is evident.

The trend of public opinion yesterday was still hesitant, and the new model was open to discussion.

As a result, this morning, such discussions were quickly overwhelmed by more expected speeches.

Everyone is guessing how different this game will be from "League of Assassins" and "John Wick" in terms of gameplay.

Especially for large-scale vehicle battles, I look forward to it.

This is different from the [Death Drag Race] in Night City!

Although there are also a lot of outrageous cold weapons and hot weapon modified vehicles, there are also very chaotic and fierce collisions and firefights, but in the final analysis, it is a racing game, which is fundamentally different from vehicle warfare purely for the purpose of destroying opponents.

Moreover, in high-speed movement, it is not easy to increase the intensity of combat power-it is too easy to widen the speed difference, and the battle often ends within a few seconds.

In the last two competitions, the modification direction of the cars with the best results has begun to shift towards the direction of "defense + speed".

The number of cars carrying all kinds of exaggerated weapons was constantly declining, and the overall score was obviously behind the former—otherwise Han Qing would not have achieved the current score.

Lin You is already considering some upgrades to the track, so as to balance the advantages and disadvantages of these modified cars, and give some care to the "combatants", so that the competition will not become boring.

But no matter how you change it, the track is still a track, and it is impossible to make the feeling of a battlefield.

The needs in this area must be met by "Battlefield"!

...

After noon, there was almost no sound of the second game in the entire game circle.

In the past two days, everyone has paid attention to the little ender dragon pet, and the special gameplay of the creative mode, and the volume of the sound was temporarily covered by the huge heat.

This is also because: only the small ender dragon pets hatched in survival mode can be taken away from your personal server, and even brought out of "Minecraft", while the little ender dragon hatched in creative mode can only be taken out of your personal server. Can be seen in creative mode.

The difficulty of obtaining greatly limits the popularity.

The function of the module is similar, and it is found that the MOD cannot be used. After making a [self-service brothel machine], everyone's enthusiasm has dropped a lot.

——In fact, it’s not a complete failure. If you don’t want to take off your clothes and combine the soul and the body, then the [coin-operated self-service brothel machine], which focuses on sexy costumes and sexy dances, has actually been realized...

Apart from this, other more in-depth creative development will take more time to perfect, and there is no result yet.

If there is no result, naturally there will be no enthusiasm.

[13:00].

There is an hour left until the game is officially launched.

A new topic popped up, and many players started to use similar sentence patterns to initiate dynamics——

[Jizhong Plain recruit commando is in place! ]

[Yingcai High School's 28th-level Liberal Artillery Regiment is ready! ]

[Northwest Heavy Industry Bioengineering Major has assembled! ]

[The fifth-grade death squad of Baitashan Elementary School is ready to go! ]

[All the boys in the small class of Nanshan Kindergarten are ready! ]

...

Inside Yunmeng, when the employees saw the fifth grade of Baitashan Primary School, they also discussed that the fifth grade seemed to be eleven years old, which could not meet the requirements of [dynamic classification (14 years old-adult)].

But after seeing the outrageous dynamics of "Nanshan Kindergarten Small Class", he simply gave up his worries.

Love it!

Unify it as "the player is in place" and that's it!

At the same time that the players expressed that they were "in place", all the employees of Yunmeng's "Battlefield" development team were also in place.

This time is different than before: the game needs to be adjusted according to the player’s feedback immediately after the game is released, which means that from the launch, it is necessary to prepare for high-intensity work.

This is doomed that they can't be like before: just watch the sales figures increase and applaud and cheer at the right time.

...

[13:50]

Lin You took his place.

With Xiaomeng, he came to the virtual office of the "Battlefield" development team, flexed his shoulders and wrists, and got ready for a big fight.

Xiaomeng leaned close to his ear and asked softly: "Master, do you really not need Xiaomeng's help?"

Lin You shook his head: "Don't use it for now, I always fished and watched you busy with your work. Today, Xiaomeng will take a rest and I will do the work!"

"In case you are really too busy, Xiaomeng will come to help you."

"Okay, master, come on!" Xiao Meng sat obediently next to Lin You, her legs dangling leisurely, and turned on the spectator mode.

In this way, time entered the final countdown——

"3!"

In the virtual office, the development team members start counting down at the same time.

"2!"

All over the world, countless players simultaneously counted down.

"1!"

Lin You and Xiaomeng echoed, and did not forget to send blessings to the players:

"Get ready for death!"

The second chapter is still being corrected, wait a moment.
