Chapter 118 A new version every week
Not only Phoenix Games’ studios, but also NetDragon and Tenghua, as well as some other second-tier or third-tier studios involved in FPS, are all studying the mode gameplay in "Biochemical Survival".
This is not a core thing that cannot be copied, because there is no copyright in the theme of zombies at all. They can use zombies infecting Nebula games, and other game manufacturers can naturally use it, but there is an official theme protection period, and even if it is developed, they cannot be launched as soon as possible.
But this is not the key. The most important thing is that they can move these modes along, and they can move them easily. They don’t need to copy maps or anything else. They just need to copy the most core game mode.
This practice is a kind of unspoken behavior, both domestic and foreign gaming circles. On the surface, it is said to be a reference for gameplay creativity, but in the end it is mainly a reference or a player and industry practitioners actually have a scale in their hearts.
While major FPS game studios are also preparing for zombie mode, Yang Chen is also busy developing new content for "Biochemical Survival".
About hide and seek, commonly known as hide and seek mode, is also known as hide and seek mode, in addition to new skin accessories, as well as two new game maps.
At the same time, Nebula Games has also conducted a recruitment in the industry, and its treatment may not be compared with the three majors and some domestic second-tier and quasi-first-tier game manufacturers.
But the most attractive thing about Nebula Games for game practitioners is the prospect. Several consecutive popular games can be said that Nebula Games are simply a hot spot.
This time, Yang Chen recruited not only in the industry, but also recruited some fresh graduates, basically maintaining the pace of 55.
At present, Nebula Games has almost stabilized. If nothing unexpected happens, the game "Biochemical Survival" can serve as the capital cow for Nebula Games for a long time.
The talent reserve in the studio is about to begin.
Under Xu Yu's arrangement, the customer service department and the publicity department also ushered in a small-scale expansion.
"The previous zombie infection mode and zombie escape mode require version adjustments and content updates." In the conference room, Yang Chen looked at Wang Ye and other groups of 'old men' in charge of "Biochemical Survival" and said to the new team members who had just joined.
At the same time, the PPT contents that were made before opening on the projection large screen.
Wang Ye and other old people who participated in the development of the "Biochemical Survival" game have basically digested the concepts of Yang Chen's fast-paced updates and entertainment popularity.
But for the newcomers who just joined Nebula Games, they really shocked them.
Is there any such operation?
Newcomers who have just graduated from the theory is higher than practice and have not experienced any real game project development are just surprised by this.
But some people who are involved in the game industry are incredible by Yang Chen's theory.
Generally speaking, this multiplayer game will be updated and launched with new content after a month or even longer development, and then updated according to the progress of the current version.
Even some RPG games may lower the explosion rate or increase the difficulty of the dungeon, forcibly extend the version time.
As Yang Chen said, the version update will be updated once a week, and this kind of operation can be said to be almost non-existent in the gaming circle.
Moreover, this version is not a so-called minor change, similar to skin props, but involves the release of maps, gameplay modes and new content.
"It is not realistic to update once a week, and to have a full version, but I will divide you into two working groups, so it can be understood as submitting a complete new version in two weeks. At the same time, I have also contacted two outsourcing companies and will cooperate with you in the work. Our team only needs to be responsible for the core content." Yang Chen said.
Although this will increase the cost a lot, it is a very safe approach. If you really want your team to do it, unless you are stationed at the job for 12 hours a day, otherwise you don’t expect to be able to explode.
During the simple meeting, Yang Chen talked about some subsequent updates of the main "Biochemical Survival" and then assigned the work of the project team.
In the early two or three weeks of updates, Wang Ye and the others will develop with the two teams they just formed, which will lead them on the way.
…………
"It's too much! We're copying our zombie infection mode and the escape mode!"
"In addition to the scene and model, there are also some background changes. This is simply our copy!"
After the meeting, Yang Chen had just walked out of the conference room when he heard Chen Shu and Zhang Li gathered together in the office next to him and were filled with righteous indignation.
"What's wrong?" Yang Chen walked over and said with a smile.
"Mr. Yang, our game has been copied!" Chen Shu said hello and opened several web pages.
"Operation Line 2" promotional video announcement, feature gameplay: Doomsday Crazy.
The new version of "War" was grandly announced: Zombies are coming!
Basically, there are some upcoming FPS games, as well as news that the introduction of the biochemical mode of the old FPS games.
It's really too easy to copy this mode, and it doesn't even take much development time. The most basic way to modify the module shape in the game, then increase the health value of one of the camps, and then correct some bugs to complete it.
With the good strength of the development team, this model can be launched in less than a week after working overtime.
"What was expected, in fact, this model will not continue to be popular, even if there is no similar reference and diversion." Yang Chen smiled and shook his head and said.
He actually saw this very clearly. The zombie mode itself is more entertainment-oriented, and it is difficult to compare with the bonding of pure competition.
That's why Yang Chen formulated a drop-style update strategy, constantly developing new models and new content, so that players always feel fun.
"If they follow the model in "Biochemical Survival", they will probably be cold soon. If they are greedy for selling krypton gold guns, they will probably be colder faster." Yang Chen said with a smile.
Listening to Yang Chen's words, Chen Shu and the others were a little confused and looked at Yang Chen with a confused look.
Looking at the appearance of several people, Yang Chen couldn't help but smile. He had nothing to be busy with at the moment. Moreover, Yang Chen would tell Chen Shu and the others about some things later, so he simply went to the chair next to him to explain.
Chapter completed!
