Chapter 109 Process Development

Similar problems can exist, and this is a fair thing that no scoring system can do. Therefore, the evaluation is based on the mood after playing the game at that time, and it can only be a unilateral evaluation of the game, once it becomes a game evaluation that relies on comparison, then the difference is big, some people think that the music of the game is better, does it mean that the music of the game is not good? Maybe it is the player's own preferred style is different?

For example, some people like quiet, long-term, poetic, like the city in the sky, but some people like passionate, enthusiastic, enterprising, like Croatian rhapsody, these are all influenced by subjective consciousness, so use a comparative way to score, and no one will be able to make a rating system that satisfies all players.

If you have to compare, you can only summarize the star ratings given by players when the player base of each game is large enough and the same, and then calculate the average, so that the final score is really convincing.

For example, 1 million players played three games A, B, and C, and finally calculated that the average score of game A is 3.4 stars, game B is 4.2 stars, and game C is 1.1 stars, so that it can be said that among the three games, game B is the most fun, game A is okay, and game C is the worst.

"From now on, all the games that have been approved, once they have been developed to a paragraph, will be tested, and a star rating card will be made, and the star rating rules will be written on the back of the card, and the star card will be painted on the front, and a column will be written down for the player. Once the average score of the player's rating is less than 4 stars, it is not allowed to be put on the market, and it will continue to be rebuilt until it is polished to pass. Li Fangcheng directly made the final conclusion.

"If you don't finish it on time......" Ling Donghua didn't finish asking, but the meaning was self-evident.

"If you don't finish it on time, all the bonuses of this project will be cancelled. Li Fangcheng said mercilessly.

Just kidding, every game set by Li Fangcheng is of vital significance to the development of the company, and once the consequences of the delay are likely to be the collapse of the whole plan!

Thinking of this, Li Fangcheng was suddenly taken aback, yes! All along, he had imagined that it was very beautiful, as if all the progress could be fulfilled as he wished.

But many times, paper can't keep the fire!

As the company expands, sooner or later, once the company is established, the project may be known by competitors before it is completed!

At this time, once a competitor even gets the information and makes the same game, how will the company respond? Or like Tang Zejia, spend a lot of money to poach people, causing the whole project to collapse!

Don't talk about loyalty, yes, a person's loyalty to the company must be there, but loyalty can also be converted at the same price in many cases!

Isn't the existence of headhunting companies just for poaching people? Although it is said that many times, the purpose of poaching people is to put talents in a more appropriate position, but there is also no lack of behavior of poaching people because of interests.

On the premise that it has nothing to do with life and death, then many people's loyalty is nothing more than a matter of money, such as Li Fangcheng, no matter how much annual salary is given to these core personnel, they may be poached, and once they are poached, the consequences will be ......

Like a basin of cold water pouring down from his head, Li Fangcheng even shivered, this matter must be solved!

"Huazi, the game of Dragon Sword and Heavenly Sword, for the company, the importance will even determine the company's next step, you ...... There is no faith. Li Fangcheng looked at Ling Donghua, who was not right today, and asked.

Everyone's eyes were on Ling Donghua.

Everyone in the company knows that Li Fangcheng is as simple as a brother to Ling Donghua, but now he has some hesitation, you must know that Li Fangcheng is more confident in Ling Donghua than anyone else, and it can be said that no one trusts Ling Donghua more than Li Fangcheng!

"Boss, I will definitely test according to the standards and complete it on time before the end of June!" Ling Donghua suddenly raised his head when he felt so many eyes, and said firmly.

Li Fangcheng nodded, this kind of Ling Donghua is the Ling Donghua he knows, a momentary mistake is inevitable, but he has always been obsessed, how can he be a qualified leader?

Today's matter, Li Fangcheng doesn't have to make such a big move.

But using Ling Donghua's existence to reflect his selflessness, deter other people in the company, and let everyone know that even if Ling Donghua makes a mistake, he will be punished, and on the other hand, Li Fangcheng also hopes that Ling Donghua can grow up as soon as possible, instead of relying on his own help to solve things.

Otherwise, if the slow growth, how to convince the public? There are more and more people in the company, everyone is working hard, if others are harder than Ling Donghua, more active, do more projects, and perform better, then Ling Donghua's existence will definitely be controversial!

"Haozi, Xiaohan, your projects are the same, all start the star rating system, Xiang'er, inform Zhang Yun, from now on, each department will recruit twice as many people, all of them are in the same position, and after you come, you will quickly learn from the people in the current project team. Li Fangcheng instructed Ping Xiangtong.

"Is this because the project team is not manpowered? Wouldn't doubling it be an exaggeration?" Ping Xiangtong was taken aback.

"No, I'm going to set up a project team. ”

"Benchmarking?"

"That's right, from now on, it's too late for the Dragon Sword and the Heavenly Sword, but Haozi and Xiaohan's project team, I have to have two identical projects. ”

Li Fangcheng didn't answer, and looked at Hua Xiaohan and Meng Hao, without exception, both of them frowned, thinking about something, but they didn't veto it at the first time.

After a short while, Meng Hao raised his head and asked, "Boss, do you want to emulate the story of sardines and catfish?"

"Yes, you have been in the army, and you should know that the pigsty will not give birth to thousands of horses, and the flower pot will not be able to raise 10,000-year-old pines. Without the pressure of opponents, how can your current level compare with those long-established engineers, after all, there is a gap, people can be two or three or even four or five of you, you can think about how big the gap is. Li Fangcheng nodded with satisfaction.

At this sentence, even Meng Hao and Ling Donghua nodded secretly.

The harder you work up, the more you realize how far you can get from the top engineers

For example, the four engineers who defected from Atari to set up their own doors for Activision, such as the engineer who made the E.T. alien game, which of these is not a top technician? A person can make a game in a few months, while Ling Donghua is a team for a few months! The difference is not the slightest!

"Set up the same type of project team, respectively Group A, Group B. After a deep sigh, Li Fangcheng said, "Another...... Forget it, I'll let Tang Ze Kaiyan do it, I'm going on a business trip soon, and set up a financial team to let Ying'er's assistant Shen Bin be in charge, otherwise Zhang Yun will have to do salary accounting and distribution, and also do recruitment, so he can't be busy. ”

"Okay, understood. Ping Xiangtong agreed.

Li Fangcheng nodded, walked towards the door, and stopped halfway through.

"Game production in the post-miracle era is divided into three processes, first, the development stage, second, the closed beta stage, third, the publicity stage, and fourth, the official launch. ”

"Closed beta is?"

"Closed beta is internal testing, which is what I just said about testing. In the future, before the official launch of the game, the schedule will be arranged according to the first three processes, and the initial time planning ratio will be 70% in the development stage, 20% in the internal testing stage, 30% in the publicity stage, and the official launch is the deadline. ”

"Is this arrangement, that is, publicity and closed beta testing carried out together?"

"Yes, this is also an inevitable thing, and the problem of popularity should also be considered when making games, and the curiosity of players must be mobilized in advance, and the appetite of players should be raised, so I don't need to talk about the benefits, right?"

"Understood!"

"Alright, you guys go get busy, Xiang'er, help me book a plane ticket. ”

After explaining the last thing, Li Fangcheng left.

The whole Age of Miracles is like a spinning top, spinning rapidly.

At this time, the fatigue of the miracle era was revealed, the foundation was insufficient, and when manpower was needed, the lack of personnel became a problem.

In the final analysis, the company's strength is still in a relatively rudimentary state, and now it can only continue to recruit.

It's a pity that the last time I went to the Sega Gala on Christmas Night, I was entangled in a bunch of trivial things because of my sudden fame, and I didn't have time to visit Suzuki Yu, and now if I go to visit again, the effect is different, before the Tang Ze family was a part of the Sega, so if you borrow the name of the Tang Ze family to meet Suzuki Yu, and initiate an exchange activity, then Sega will not feel anything, although the Tang Ze family is the bottom of the third party, but what if you make a good game?

Until the last minute of Christmas Eve, Hayakuo Nakayama even hoped that the Tang Ze family could come up with a fun game, as long as there was one, then the entire Tang Ze family might see a different ending.

After all, in the collapse of the financial statements, Sega has always longed for a famous work, and has never stopped.

But it's not the same anymore.

Once Karasawa Kaiyan, who is now separated from Sega, also asks Yu Suzuki to go out with the team to communicate, let's not talk about whether Yu Suzuki can do it, but won't Sega have any ideas?

Isn't it tiresome that you, the section manager of the R&D department of a first-party company, privately lead a team to meet outsiders?

So now the idea of asking Sega's team to guide or help Age of Wonders is basically stillborn.

Li Fangcheng was helpless, and now he could only arrange it in this way.

I stepped on the plane to the United States, the United States, this trip, I don't know if it will go well.

The last territory of the Age of Miracles is here!
