Chapter 118: 1 new version every week

Not only the Phoenix game studios, including NetDragon and Tenghua, but also some other second- or third-line studios that involve FPS, are all studying the mode of play in Biochemical Survival.

This is not something that cannot be copied from the core, because the theme of zombies has no copyright at all. They can be used by zombies infected with Nebula games, and other game manufacturers can naturally use them, but there is an official theme protection period. Even if they are developed, they cannot go online for the first time.

But this is not critical. The most important thing is that they can copy these modes according to the past, and they can easily move them. The map does not need to copy anything, just copy the core gameplay mode.

This practice is a kind of unspoken rule whether it is in domestic or foreign game circles. On the surface, it is a reference to gameplay creativity, but in the end, it is mainly a reference or what players and the industry practitioners actually have in mind. There is also a steelyard.

In major FPS game studios, while preparing for zombie mode, Yang Chen in Nebula games is also busy developing new content for "Biochemical Survival".

About hide and seek, also known as peekaboo mode, there are also new skin accessories and two new game maps.

At the same time, Nebula Games has also conducted a recruitment in the industry, and the treatment may not be able to compare with the three major and some domestic second-tier and quasi-first-tier game manufacturers.

But the most attractive thing for game practitioners is the prospect of Nebula games. Several consecutive explosion games can be said that today's Nebula games are simply like sweets.

This time, the recruitment of Yang Chen not only recruited in the industry, but also recruited some fresh graduates, basically keeping the proportion at 55%.

At present, the Nebulas game has almost stabilized, and it is no surprise that the game of "Biochemical Survival" can be used as a funding cow for Nebulas for a long time.

The talent pool in the studio is almost starting.

Under Xu Yu's management, 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 a group of "old people" who were responsible for "Biochemical Survival" and joined them just now. Said the new team member.

At the same time, open the previously prepared PPT content on the large projection screen.

The old people such as Wang Ye who participated in the game development of "Biochemical Survival" have basically digested the concept of Yang Chen's fast-paced update and entertainment fever.

But for the newcomers who just joined the Nebula game, they really surprised them.

Is there such an operation?

Newcomers who just graduated from theory above practice and have not experienced any real game project development are just surprised by this.

But some people in the mixed-game industry feel incredible about Yang Chen's theory.

Generally speaking, in this multiplayer game, the version update and the introduction of new content are developed after a month or more, and then updated according to the progress of the current version.

Even some RPG games will reduce the explosion rate or increase the difficulty of the copy, forcibly extending the version time.

As Yang Chen said, the version is updated once a week. This kind of operation can be said to be almost absent in the game circle.

And this version is not a so-called minor change, similar to what skin props, but it involves maps, gameplay modes and the release of new content.

“It’s not realistic to update once a week and still want the full version, but I will divide you into two working groups, so it can be understood that two weeks to submit a complete new version, and I also contacted two A home outsourcing company will work with you. 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 practice. If you really want to rely on your team to do it, unless you are stationed on the job every day for 12 hours, otherwise don’t expect to be able to explode. It burst out.

In a simple meeting, Yang Chen talked about the follow-up updates of some major "Biochemical Survival" and then assigned the work of the project team.

In the first two or three weeks of the update, Wang Ye and the two teams they just formed will develop together, which will be the way to lead them.

…………

"It's too much! We are all copying our zombie infection mode, as well as the escape mode!"

"In addition to the scenes and models, there are some changes in the background, this is simply our copy!"

After the meeting, Yang Chen had just walked out of the meeting room and heard that in the next office, Chen Shu and Zhang Li got together and filled with indignation.

"What's wrong?" Yang Chen smiled as he walked over.

"Mr. Yang, our game was copied!" Chen Shu greeted and opened a few web pages.

Announcement of "FireWire 2" promo video, featured gameplay: Doomsday Tide.

The new version of "War" is grandly announced: Zombies are here

Basically, it is the news that some upcoming FPS games and the veteran FPS games introduce biochemical mode.

It's really too easy to copy this mode, and it doesn't even take long development time. The most basic modification is the module shape in the game, and then the health value of one of the camps is adjusted up, and it can be completed after fixing some bugs. .

When the development team has a good strength Overtime and overtime can even put this model online.

"The expected thing, in fact, this model will not continue to fire, even if there is no similar diversion." Yang Chen smiled and shook his head.

In fact, he is also very clear about this point. The zombie mode itself is a high entertainment, which is difficult to compare with the pure sports.

So Yang Chen only formulated a drop-style update strategy, constantly developing new models and new content, so that players always have fun.

"If they follow the pattern in "Biochemical Survival", then they are estimated to be cold soon. If they are greedy to sell krypton gold guns, it is estimated that it will be cooler and faster." Yang Chen smiled and said with a smile .

Listening to Yang Chen's words, Chen Shu and a few people didn't understand it, and looked at Yang Chen with a dazed expression.

Looking at the appearance of several people, Yang Chen couldn't help but show some smiles, and he didn't have anything to be busy at the moment, and there were some things that Yang Chen would like to tell Chen Shu and wait for later, Yang Chen began to explain on the chair beside him stand up.
