Chapter 921 Top open world games
921
Even the sub-level game development products within Youxing Electronic Entertainment seem to be released one by one for other game companies.
And Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's games every year cover all aspects.
RPG, open world, racing, ball games.
Especially in 2014, there will be a World Cup Games. Su Rui Electronics has the authorization of the FIFA World Cup, and naturally wants to take advantage of this year to launch a sufficiently good football game.
Even taking advantage of this popularity can make his football game sell well.
It's a pity that Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's football games are not vegetarian. They also launched their own new series of football league games that year, and there are also official authorizations from many football clubs.
One is to increase sales with the help of the World Cup, and the other is to rely on its own reputation and game quality to stabilize the market, but both of them have made a lot of money this year.
Football games usually have a very stable sales volume of tens of millions, and now the game sales of both parties have also achieved very good results.
Relying on the popularity of the World Cup, Su Rui Electronics sold more than five million copies not long after its release, becoming a rare cash cow for Su Rui Electronics.
But even with the help of the popularity, it is still not as good as the football league. The sales of the football league exceeded 10 million in just the first week of sales, which is as stable as ever.
Compared to the popularity, it is obvious that more players will choose the more fun football game.
As for other games, they also have an average sales volume of more than three million.
For a game whose average development cost in 2014 was only 30 to 40 million, it is a good return.
And the money earned has once again become the savings of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
Spend a huge amount of money on the amusement park, and only by saving another wave of money can Zhu Youxing feel at ease.
Of course, the continuous injection of funds into the development of 2077 is indispensable.
At the same time, after a year, the general development direction of 2077 has been basically finalized, and now it is entering the intensive production.
This time, the entire Cyberpunk 2077 game will have a huge cyberpunk-style city.
In the original version of Cyberpunk 2077, there are still some urban areas that are not disclosed, such as the city in the rocket launch area.
This time, Zhuyou Xing was all made, and the modeling was quite fine, and then various gameplays were added to the game.
The vehicle system of the original game is really not very fun. Let alone the driving experience, the racing gameplay in the game is obviously a semi-finished product.
In the original version of Cyberpunk 2077, the computer player racing car is not really racing against the player, but is racing against the player through teleportation while the player is not observing from the perspective of the player.
This method may be a helpless compromise, or it may be that the original Polish donkey would not be able to make racing game content at all, but in this world Yuxing Electronic Entertainment has more than ten years of experience in Need for Speed development, if we do it again No, then it is really unreasonable.
"President, every room in every building can be entered. This consumes too much of our resources. Is it really necessary to do this? I am afraid that players who play this game will not enter every room at all, and do so much Doesn’t the room without any meaning contradict your previous logic of streamlining game development?”
In the third development department, Zhuyou Xing is discussing the construction of cities in the game with several main developers.
The entire Night City will be divided into seven main areas of the city, plus the wasteland outside the city, the entire map area will be about 50 to 60 square kilometers.
Most houses and buildings in the city cannot be entered, so it can only be regarded as a simple modeling.
And Zhuyouxing's requirement for Cyberpunk 2077 Night City is that every building can be entered and exited at will, which is quite a test for the team.
In terms of the size of the map alone, I am afraid that the capacity of the entire game will exceed 100GB, or even 200GB is possible.
This should also be the largest map and city that several teams have ever done.
But the map is big, but does it really make sense?
In the past, Zhuyou Xing advocated that some resources in the open world should be saved as much as possible, and most of the resources should be used wisely without too much waste.
But this time Zhu Youxing's request is indeed a little different from his previous request.
It’s no wonder that several responsible persons wondered why they did this.
Because it does seem pointless.
“Because what we are going to do this time is not a simple game city, I want to make a real city that is completely convincing as much as possible, and even some resources need to be overflowed in some cases.”
"President, this may also be a test for the optimization team. This game is really beyond imagination."
“The Unreal Engine team will be working with you all the time to make sure there are no issues with game optimization.”
"President, you want to make all the houses freely accessible. Are you planning to do something special?"
"Of course, this game needs to be realistic enough. It not only needs to fill the map, but also needs enough content. This content is the work of the fourth development department. Their team is still researching more side game tasks."
"This... sounds a bit tingling, how many game branches does the president plan to design?"
"These branch lines don't need to be discovered by the players, as long as they are enough to make the players really feel that Night City is so real, and such branch lines may need thousands, and they are still full of variables. Of course, this is not what you want to do, you just need to refine the game map as much as possible, oh yes, and the flying gameplay in the vehicle system of the game is ready?"
"Half done, we are testing and should be done soon."
"Okay, as long as it is completed, it will be handed over to the fourth development department as soon as possible. They need to develop branches in combination with the gameplay."
"We understand."
Zhu Youxing looked at the gradually formed Night City scenery on the screen and couldn't help being a little addicted to it.
If the Cyberpunk 2077 I played had such content, I am afraid it would really become the top game in history, right?
It's a pity that in the end this game was still lost in the compromise of capital and other aspects.
But in this world, he wouldn't let that happen.
Everything will only be announced on the premise that the game is perfect enough to show the world a completely different top open world game.
