Chapter 744: If there is a problem, you have to go up
The addition of Xishanju can be said to be a big complement to the Rising Sun Game Company, and the legendary development department is no longer overstretched, and everyone is almost working in two shifts.
In addition to strictly guarding against all kinds of plug-ins, the staff finally has more time to develop more content for the game. And the development of the game "Swordsman Love" is also on the agenda.
As a masterpiece of martial arts games independently developed with Chinese characteristics, Yang Dongxu can be said to have the greatest enthusiasm and support for the development of swordsman.
It can be said that you want people to give people, no one poachs people for you, you want money to give money, and you want equipment to give equipment. And it was set very high, which made the staff on the legend's side look a little red.
The person in charge of the swordsman love development team is Chang Hao, a man with square-framed eyes who is a little thin, who just turned 31 this year and is Qiu Bosong's protégé.
Now Qiu Bosong is in charge of developing instant chat software, and Yang Dongxu, a person from Xishanju, has no plans to move, so he promoted Chang Hao after talking with Qiu Bosong to be responsible for the development of swordsmen after the reorganization of Xishanju.
In the office of Glorious Sun Technology, Changhao sat opposite Yang Dongxu. At the beginning, when Yang Dongxu looked at him, Chang Hao also looked at the new boss in front of him. The first feeling is that I am young, and I am very young. This made him a little pessimistic about his future work.
To be honest, at the beginning, he still had some doubts about Xishanju being packaged and sold by the company, even if his master Qiu Bosong jumped ship with him.
Although Xishanju has achieved fruitful results since its establishment, it is definitely among the best in the domestic stand-alone game industry, and the studio's profitability is also increasing year by year.
Just when he was ambitious and ready to lead a group of his brothers to stir up trouble in the Chinese game industry, the studio was directly packaged and sold.
As soon as the new boss came up, he cut off the development of all the studio's previous stand-alone games, and directly took out the swordsman love that was just a concept, and asked the development of online games to no longer be stand-alone.
This sudden change of court has already made him feel a little parasitic under the fence, but his son can't have his surname yet, and he can't even admit that this is his son in the future, and he wants to raise another son who doesn't want to give birth according to the boss's requirements, how can you calm Changhao's heart?
But Qiu Bosong has the grace of knowing him, and except for the game development, which makes him feel that he is being guided by a layman, the new boss has not treated them badly.
The new company has allocated them a single room dormitory, which is still the kind with air conditioning and washing machine, which is more comfortable than the previous collective dormitory.
In terms of wages, it is needless to say, everyone's salary has risen by fifty percent, not to mention that all have signed a formal contract with five insurances and one housing fund, which is simply the treatment of state-owned enterprises, if you can work until retirement, you will have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime.
So Chang Hao is a little confused now, or he was originally a little indignant, and all the programmers in Xishanju are a little confused. They didn't even mean to discuss with them about the new boss's fingers, and they must be dissatisfied with such a domineering approach.
But such a sweet sugar-coated cannonball came one after another, almost wrapping them in sugar-coating, and many people couldn't muster the courage to refuse. After all, after enjoying the benefits of Glorious Sun Technology's employees, no one wants to return to the previous salted fish working environment.
Everyone has dreams, but not everyone will go out of their way to achieve them, especially when the current living environment makes them extremely satisfied.
And this kind of ambitious person is also what Yang Dongxu needs now, now, or in the next ten years. Although he needs a helper on his own, he doesn't need an ambitious, dreamy and hard-working employee.
What he needs is a large number of puppet employees who honestly follow their steps and conscientiously obey their commands to complete the task. Because he has a lot of classic games in his head that don't need clever game planning, and he doesn't have to worry about the problem of market acceptance.
So he just needs these employees to do what he wants according to his orders, these people don't need to have their own ideas, and they don't need to have too high a talent, the more honest the better.
"Are you still comfortable with the working environment?" Yang Dongxu was the first to speak, breaking the calm.
"Good. Chang Hao nodded.
"How's the swordsman going?"
"The game planning has basically been completed, the game background development skeleton has also been set, and now it is mainly a matter of filling in the details. Chang Hao said fifteen ten.
He belongs to the kind of person who has a mentality, even if he has grievances, but as long as he finishes his job, he will do it well at a glance and will never steal and cheat. Such a person may be a little unflattering in terms of human sophistication, but there is absolutely no problem with his work ability, which is undoubtedly what Yang Dongxu needs.
"We want to make paid online games, that is, like Legends, collect point cards and not sell equipment. Therefore, the balance of the game must be done well, especially the economic balance inside," Yang Dongxu said some of his requirements for the game.
Chang Hao couldn't help frowning when he heard this, after all, every programmer doesn't like to suddenly jump out when he completes the plan and even starts to do the content.
"Questions?" looked at Chang Hao, who was frowning, and Yang Dongxu asked.
"Yes. Chang Hao nodded, "The studio used to make stand-alone games, and there is no economic balance problem in stand-alone games, after all, there is only one person or several people in the game, no matter how much money is spent killing monsters, and how good the equipment is will not affect the balance of the game, so we have no experience in this area."
There is also the problem of the game content you request, in the same case, the stand-alone game does not have such strict requirements for image quality, and it does not connect to the server after downloading. So there is no network connection problem and how smooth the picture is,At the same time, the stand-alone game is not too big and simple to install.,If you say this swordsman is made into an online game,The configuration it needs is not comparable to a stand-alone game"
Chang Hao also didn't hide that 1510 said all the problems he could think of at present, although they are all making games, but there is really a difference between the development of stand-alone games and online games, and it is not small.
It's not as simple as you can turn a stand-alone game into an online game and operate it directly. The amount of work required is no less than if you were to use a single-player game as a template and redevelop a game.
"You can ask the Legend Games team about the online game setup, they have experience in this area. Although sometimes the legendary graphics are just like that, after all, they have the experience of dealing with things like the graphics are not smooth, and even the characters can't get stuck in the map.
Your main task now is to make the game template so that we can improve it as we work on it. As for the equipment setting and economic balance I raised, you can make a framework for us to try slowly.
But this excuse and content must be made, after all, we can slowly debug this thing, and if we don't have this thing, we need to do another inlay into it, which can easily cause incompatible new problems, and then we can't push everything back again, right?
As for the problem of server and network connection, it is better to ask the legend for advice, or just throw it directly to Dongxu Technology. Now they are contractors of our game company, what they don't understand, or what they need, and all kinds of requirements are directly listed for them to do, and they can't do it, and we will discuss the problems that can't be done. ”
Yang Dongxu's solution to the problem raised by Chang Hao can be said to be simple and rude, in a word, you can make what I want for me, even if the content cannot be enriched for the time being, this foundation must be done. After making it, we are slowly debugging, solving problems and solving problems, and solving the next problem after no problem.
"I need to go back and think about this, and I need to have a meeting with the following to give you an accurate answer. Chang Hao thought for a moment and felt that what he was asking for as a new boss was complicated, and even a little difficult, but it didn't seem that he couldn't do it, but the workload had increased many times compared to before.
"Okay, this can be in no hurry for the time being, we can also ask the Legend Department for more advice, just file a case this year and develop it next year. ”
"I try. Chang Hao nodded, although it is a kind of pressure to have time requirements, but this time is quite sufficient, after all, it is only July, if the answer sheet is delivered by the end of next year, there will be a year and a half to do this work.
"Then you go and get busy, make a rough plank first, and I'll give you the manpower you lack as soon as possible." ”
Although Yang Dongxu is not very familiar with game development, he is considered a layman, but he has studied the general framework of game development. understands that even if Xishanju is not enough manpower for game companies, this number of people is still far from enough. This is especially true if you want to run two or more large online games.
It's not something you can do by renting more servers and finding more programmers, who are the main force in game development, but they are not the only ones.
A game planning department includes the main planning, values, plot, copywriting, system, version, script, operation and other subdivisions.
And you also need to have an art department, such as art director, scenes, whether you want 2D or 3D, characters, original paintings, flat paintings, videos, etc.
Every position needs people, and every position is not something that can be done by one person. Now the two game departments of Rising Sun Technology are all combined, and people say that there are only 42 people, and this is not counting him as the boss. This is not enough to dominate the domestic game market.
Therefore, the arrival of Xishanju solved the urgent need of Rising Sun Technology, so that the legend's side could be stabilized, and he had a little energy to develop other games, but if he wanted to make it and do it well, he still had to wave the money in his hand to dig more talents.
