Chapter 289 :cs
Strictly speaking, it takes quite a while to make an online game.
First, he had to develop the game engine, which could take one to two years or three years.
After the game engine, there is the whole game system, which involves modeling, interface settings, gameplay settings, numerical settings, level settings, and background settings. Again, it takes one to two years, or three to four years if it's a big online game.
However, for this crossfire, the time can be greatly shortened.
In line with the principle of borrowing, the speed of development of Crossfire is almost like a rocket.
In particular, from time to time, Zhang Ning also ran to guide, and the development speed of Crossfire was even more against the sky.
In less than two months, CrossFire has completed most of the content.
Although, there are still a lot of settings that have not been completed later, for example, the setting of paid props, there are many decorations that are not so fast, all put into the game. However, Zhang Ning can't wait. He took this crossfire, which had completed most of the time, and flew to North America to sign up for the North American Game Show.
In order for CrossFire to dominate South Korea, then, first of all, Zhang Ning must make the game CrossFire famous in advance.
If not, a large number of game manufacturers in South Korea heard their names, and even heard that CrossFire was developed by themselves. I'm afraid that no game company will represent its own products. Of course, that's not the main thing. The most important thing is that Zhang Ning hopes to shine in the North American game show in one fell swoop, quickly dominate the Korean game market, and catch them off guard.
"Hello, we at Penguin Games have a game that we would like to participate in your North American Game Show."
There are several well-known game shows in the world, E3 is one, and the Tokyo Game Show is also one.
In addition, there is also the German Game Show, as well as the North American Game Show.
E3 Game Show, for some reasons, Zhang Ning does not plan to go.
The Tokyo Game Show and the German Kodi Game Show, before the time came, Zhang Ning participated in the North American Game Show.
To be honest, the scale of the North American game show is slightly inferior to that of the E3 game show.
However, another reason why Zhang Ning came here is that the North American Game Show has a well-known magazine in the game industry - Game World. Every year, Game World introduces a wide variety of games from all over the country. Best known, the gaming world announces the best game in the world every year.
Almost every game that is voted the best game in the world by the game world will become a global hit.
A few years ago, Warcraft won the Best Game Award at the North American Game Show and became a global sensation.
Immediately, Warcraft and his development company, Blizzard, became the top storage in the world.
It can't be said that winning the best game at the North American Game Show will definitely be the best game in the world. But historically, more than 90% of the games that won the Best Game Award at the North American Game Show became the best game in the world.
"Penguin games, you are penguin games?"
Hearing Zhang Ning announce the name of Penguin Games, the staff of the North American Game Show asked excitedly.
"Yes, this is my work card."
Zhang Ning took out his work card.
"Awesome, my name is Camerock, you can call me Roque, I'm the manager of the North American Game Show, and I'm very happy that you Penguin Games can be here at the North American Game Show."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome, you don't know, your plants vs. zombies are so much fun. Also, your Sims are pretty good. It's a pity that you didn't make it to our game show. If you do, you're sure to win the title of Game of the Year. ”
"I'm sorry, but our plants vs. zombies signed up for the E3 game show. However, as you know, I don't have much interest in some game shows. However, a friend of mine said that I could try it at the North American Game Show. He said that this is a more open and fair platform than E3. ”
"Yes, thank you for your review. I can only express my regret for the injustice you have encountered at E3 before. At the same time, at that time, we also strongly condemned the E3 Committee, and I apologize to you for their shameless actions. Of course, I also like you to assure you that the North American Game Show will provide you with a more professional service. ”
"Thank you."
"By the way, what game do you Penguin Games bring this time, you know, I'm already a fan of your Penguin Games."
"yes, thank you so much for your support. This time, we're bringing a first-person shooter. His Chinese name is Crossfire, and his English name is CF. ”
“cf?”
"A first-person shooter?"
Roque was a little surprised, "Just now, Villefort Software also signed up to participate in our game show. Moreover, their game is also a first-person shooter. ”
"Mr. Roque, are you talking about Half-Life 2?"
"No, it's not, they're bringing a brand new product, and the name is CS."
"Strange ......"
Zhang Ning frowned, didn't CS participate in the E3 Game Show?
Why, he actually went to the North American game show?
However, both game shows are in the United States, and it makes sense for CS to participate in the North American Game Show.
It's just that the only thing that has some trouble is that when the time comes, I'm afraid the two games will have to play against each other.
"Oh, yes, so it looks like we have an opponent."
"Hehe, yes, you have to worry. Villefort is the software company that developed Half-Life, and in terms of first-person shooting, it can be said that Villefort is the most well-known in terms of first-person shooting. Their CS was previously on the North American game list, and it once occupied the first place. Moreover, CS at that time was still a beta version. This time, they brought the official version. ”
"I see, thank you, Mr. Roque."
"You're welcome, anyway, good luck, and I'd love to see another game that's even more fun."
Villefort Software Inc.
Villefort Software is the most well-known first-person shooter in North America, and since the company's founding, Villefort has developed dozens of first-person shooters. These include the famous Legion Tournament and the very classic Half-Life. Recently, however, Welford Software has focused on a multiplayer game called CS.
Although, this game was just a game that was developed for technicians to play together when several game makers were bored.
However, when CS was released online and became the No. 1 game in North America in a short period of time, Welfort Software saw the commercial potential of CS. Subsequently, in the past six months, Welfort Software Company concentrated its efforts and developed the official version of CS. In addition, it is ready to be officially released after participating in the North American Game Expo.
"Good news, Mike."
"Gable, what's the good news?"
"I've already inquired about the major games that participated in this North American game show."
"What's the good news?"
"Of course, this is good news, and from this information, I am sure that our CS will win the Best Game Award at the North American Game Show in one fell swoop."
"Are you sure?"
Mike stood up excitedly.
This news is really amazing.
Moreover, the title of the best game at the North American Game Show is too appealing.
Welford Software doesn't know how many games it has participated in, but every year, even the most classic Half-Life they have developed has won the best prize in the shooter category, not the best in all games. If they can win the best of all games, then, undoubtedly, their games will be popular all over the world.
Although, with such a hot world, it is impossible to create a mythical Blizzard again.
However, at the very least, they can squeeze their Villefort games into the world's first-line game industry.
This is a huge benefit for their company's listing plan.
"Yes, I'm sure. This year's North American Game Show has some good games. However, the overall popularity is not as good as our CS. Moreover, I asked someone to do a survey. Most of the players who want to participate in the North American Game Expo are coming for us CS. I think that our CS has a very good chance of winning the Best Game in North America. ”
"Great, Gable, this is really great news."
Mike excited, "Gable, show me the information." ”
"Take a look."
Gable handed Mike information about all the North American game entrants he had investigated.
On the information, it is written in great detail.
In addition to the name of the game manufacturer, he also wrote about the game work developed by this game manufacturer. And, on the side, there will be a brief review of these game works. Mike nodded while watching, judging from the data, indeed, the most popular at the moment is their CS.
"Hey, Gable, what kind of game is this CF, why is there only first-person shooting in the above introduction, and nothing else?"
At the end, Mike discovers a game called CF.
"This one seems to have just been developed, it's not too famous, and it hasn't been launched on the market. I guess I want to come to the North American Game Show, so I guess I can get lucky. ”
Gable replied with a smile, "Moreover, the developer of this company seems to be from China." ”
China, will China develop games?
Although the recent online games in China are very popular, online games are online games, and the North American Game Show did not say that online games cannot participate in their game shows, but the most popular games in North America and even the world have always been stand-alone games, not online games. Moreover, online games are only liked by Chinese or people in some parts of Asia, and people in other places will not play online games.
However, Mike frowned, "Gable, I think we're going to re-investigate this game called CF." ”
"Why?"
"Because, its development company, is Penguin Games."
