Chapter 310: São Paulo, Brazil

Because there are a lot of commercial factors in it, the multiplayer battle mode of Dune 1993 is just a simple data cable connection, which is only for two-player battles.

Dragon version of Warcraft 1 RPG game,There is no plan for players to buy a keyboard and mouse to play as a PC,All the combat modules are simple hero invincible and dune mode,Most of them are exploration,Puzzle solving,Simple and easy to use。

Besides, even in the era of Sony hegemony in real history, the PS2 era can only be connected to the keyboard and mouse, these guys who let the 32-bit SS host convert the TCP/IP protocol, just use their mouths to make SS into a smart home computer, and now to make this kind of request, it is too much!

However, the Internet is indeed the trend of future development, and if you really want to entangle with them on this, Yang Yun will only suffer more, so he agreed one by one, accepted it all, and treated it as a jishu reserve.

It's very weird on this scene, every time the accuser makes a suggestion, Long Teng readily agrees, such a haode attitude, so that Ivan and Nicky don't know what to say, this becomes a one-sided criticism, it's not interesting, no, you have to find an opponent to cause conflicts!

Host Steve's brain was racing and he asked, "Terry! You guys at West Wood also made Dune 2, what do you think of real-time strategy games? ”

Terry expected all this before he took the stage, but if he refused to go on stage, it would not give face to the organizing committee, and it was typical that he could not afford to lose, and his peers would definitely send boos.

He said with mixed feelings: "It's better to play real-time strategy games on PC, and home console platforms are not very suitable for frequent and precise operations. Inconvenient control without keyboard and mouse assistance. ”

is a very decent explanation, it is obvious that Terry is a little afraid of Yang Yun and does not dare to offend too deeply, so he only dares to talk about the theory and the general direction, but does not refer to specific details.

Steve chased after him: "You mean that Dune 1993 is inconvenient to operate?" Or did it mean that Dune 1993's choice to be released on the SS platform was a wrong choice? ”

Terry stubbornly said: "It's true that the controller is inconvenient to control the cursor, but it is undeniable that the game effect of the SS platform is better than that of the PC side. ”

Steve was interested: "Home consoles are generally updated every four years, and PCs are evolving at a rapid pace, and they can double their performance in two years. In this way, are you suggesting that SS hosts add keyboard and mouse? Or is it advisable to port Dune 1993 to the PC side? Will your own next version be a 32-bit console platform or a PC platform? ”

Terry almost burst into tears. There's no way to avoid it. "If you continue to add peripherals, you will have to increase the cost, and it depends on whether the software contains relevant programs, all of which must be taken into account......"

Nicky asked suspiciously: "It's easy to add keyboard and mouse capture events to game software, but many game companies are unwilling to do it?" ”

Ivan hit the nail on the head: "Because home video games and PC games are competitors!" ”

It dawned on Nicky: "It turned out to be for commercial purposes. So can it be understood as: Will SS be added to Internet terminals in the future? SFC。 3DO, will all game platforms be compatible with PC? ”

Feed...... Don't say it so bluntly, okay! Being present not only gave Yang Yun a headache, but also Panasonic. Nintendo, their faces are not good-looking, isn't this knowingly asking? Why should video games be played on PC? After copy-pasting games on PC and copying games in large quantities with storage media, who still buys video game discs? Isn't it all because of money!

As a reborn person, Yang Yun loves and hates the development of PC, and various emulators in later generations can perfectly simulate CPS1, CPS2, NEOGEO and other arcade games, as well as Sega, Nintendo, Sony's various TV console games, when people develop this habit, it is bound to affect a considerable part of the genuine market, and it is all money!

As for SS to be added to the Internet terminal, let's wait until it reaches the PS3 level, without music, movies and other entertainment support, the home game console will never replace the PC's entertainment terminal status.

Yang Yun was about to answer, but Ivan sneered: "I can understand that Nintendo doesn't like PCs, they only make video games." However, Dragon Teng and 3DO, both of which have PC game divisions, and are vigorously developing PC games, weishenme The games of the same company are not cross-platform compatible? Is it intended to be sold in four copies of a game? ”

Your uncle's!

Yang Yun couldn't hold back any longer and retorted: "Weishenme? Weishenme city to have a copy of the four modes of travel in the subway, bus, taxi, and private car? Weishenme will have four copies of potatoes: mashed potatoes, fries, hash browns, potato salad? Will there be a politician, a comedy show host, a fairy tale writer, a game commentator, these four professional copies that can only talk and dream all day long? ”

hahahaha……

The audience burst into warm applause, as well as crazy laughter, and people booed continuously, giving it to Ivan, the game commentator on the stage, and by the way, giving applause to the witty Yang Yun.

The diversification of people's travel modes and the diversification of food types is actually the same as the diversification of game carriers, what industry is not like this? Entertainment, movies, novels, comics, and game peripherals are also just to express the same theme, and the degree of digging deeper is even crazier than the simple game industry, and the potential of this theme will not be squeezed out.

This Ivan did deliberately provoke trouble and had nothing to do, but he didn't expect that Yang Yun would use politicians, funny show hosts, and fairy tale writers to compare with him, and evaluate him as a naïve character who can only quarrel and fantasize!

Ivan's face turned red, but the audience put a lot of pressure on him, and the host Steve also signaled to him not to refute, and took the initiative to say: "Let's go back to Dune 1993." Yang, just now we thought that the video game platform could not achieve the best control of real-time strategy games, did Longteng think of a solution? ”

Yang Yun breathed a sigh of relief: "I said this question in the first sentence, in the next ten years, real-time strategy games will become mainstream. As you know, the update speed of home game consoles is too slow, and the development of PC will be extremely rapid, so the focus of Longteng's game development in the future will be biased towards the PC side, and various game types will be involved. ”

Many people wrote down this sentence, and Steve was also secretly thinking about it, asking: "You mean, the focus of R&D?" Instead of a gaming product focus? ”

Yang Yun nodded and laughed: "Because the keyboard and mouse do not bring me as much profit as the joystick and joystick, the advantage of Dragon Games is not in PC games!" ”

Haha!

It's another big truth,Peers all let out a good-natured laugh,No one can accuse Yang Yun of thinking about their own interests,It's themselves,They will also choose what they are best at jishu to develop games,Instead of doing TV when they see TV making money,Turn to PCjishu when you see PC making money。

Then the atmosphere eased a lot, and under Steve's control, the four of them conducted an in-depth analysis of Dune 1993 and said a lot of details that made Yang Yun embarrassed.

For example, the single-player story mode is still not rich enough, with only Covenant missions, and no Rebel and Chaos Legion missions.

For example, there are too few scenes of flying machines, and the Star Alliance is almost invincible as long as the Apocalypse Tank is released.

There are many similar problems, everyone unanimously calls for Longteng to upgrade on the PC version, there is no Dune 1994, then when Dune 1995 or 1996 is available, there must be a perfect upgraded version.

Yang Yun agreed, but the Dune series is no longer in the focus of his work, he still has a modern war game "Red Alert" that has not been launched, and the medieval battle "Warcraft" and the future campaign "StarCraft" are waiting for him to develop, and after the Windows95 operating system comes out, that time is the golden time for the Dragon Real-time Strategy game!

At this game developer conference, Yang Yun did not hide his secrets, he knew that even if he didn't say it, followers would rush to make real-time strategy games in large quantities.

The development of the PC side is a fact that everyone can yujian, the next generation of sand dunes of Ximu will be released on the PC side, they can't compare to SS on the SFC, so everyone is standing on the same starting line on the PC side, who is afraid of who is not necessarily!

As for the contradiction between Yang Yun and Ivan, after the meeting, the organizing committee came forward and eased it as much as possible.

Game commentators have a special position in the game industry, and the majority of players cannot know all the games, and the best way for them to obtain information is still a variety of professional game journals and magazines, so it is necessary to maintain a good relationship in recent years, as for the Internet era, many game journals and magazines have been squeezed to death by the Internet.

After the Game Developers Conference, Yang Yun took Jiang Shaoyun and several employees from the business department of the North American branch to Sao Paulo, Brazil, with Babu and Rawat.

São Paulo is the largest city in Brazil and arguably the largest in all of South America, with an average temperature of around 20 degrees Celsius throughout the year.

Brazilian gaming companies are located in the central region of São Paulo, near the University of São Paulo, where Rawat graduated, and the company's interns are generally recruited from the university.

The Rawat Babu brothers are not the founders of the gaming company, their friend Nikolai is the real owner, and this young man from a wealthy area founded the company purely because he loves to play games.

"Báb, what ideas do you have for the ancient Inca Zuma, can you show me now?" Yang Yun actually already had the answer in his heart, and he deliberately didn't ask all the way, which made Babu's heart itch.

However, what Babu took out surprised Yang Yun!

It's this thing! (To be continued......)
