Chapter 379: The Alpha Team Enters the Mansion to Hide

Shinji Mikami was a little embarrassed, the details of the game of "Resident Evil 1" must be unclear for a while, he could only use his imagination and try to substitute himself into that terrifying area.

"I think there should be at least three groups of people, the Beta team who lost contact and needed to wait for the rescue, the Alpha team who carried out the rescue mission, and the third secret special force on a support mission, was actually controlled by the umbrella company, intending to carry out the extermination operation, and has been lurking in the dark."

Forehead...... Yang Yun shook his head slightly, this is really getting more and more complicated!

In the original version, the police Bravo team was dispatched to investigate Billy and the leech attack on the train, Rebecca and Billy, the two protagonists of "Resident Evil 0", jointly investigated the cadre training center, and their colleagues revealed some secrets of the "Resident Evil 1" map museum, as well as the background and ambitions of Wesker and William Parken.

If Shinji Mikami were to get a third secret team to monitor, would he be wiped out by Wesker's secret forces after Alpha Team "Resident Evil 1" Jill, Chris, Barry and Bravo's Rebecca escaped from the mansion? That's not good......

Yang Yun found that Shinji Mikami's setting seemed to deviate from his own cognition, and opened his mouth, but in the end he still held back and did not express his opinion.

Any game script, or movie script, can't be done overnight, even Shinji Mikami, when designing the original game, has revised countless times, adding or deleting a large number of plots, some can be realized, some can't, or one day he woke up and suddenly popped up with an excellent idea, so he is ready to give Mikami Shinji the maximum autonomy. Let's see.

"The Black Hawk helicopter brought in Alpha Squad, in the jungle not too far from the Institute. Seeing the wreckage of the crashed Beta Squad helicopter, he landed to inspect it. But he was ambushed by a zombie monster, and in the end only 5 people escaped, hiding in the research institute. ”

Not...... It's okay to replace the Western-style building with a research institute, it's essentially the same thing, here is the game map of "Resident Evil 1", quite complex terrain, all the puzzles take place in the Western-style building, and escape is the final ending.

"The institute is a place full of mutated creatures. In addition to the survivors of the Alpha Team, there are also some survivors of the original Beta Team, who also took the initiative to take refuge in the institute in advance. Among the survivors of the two teams, there are betrayers, insiders, spies, innocent deaths, and only 4 protagonists survived in the end, and the biggest villain will also survive. Move on to the next game. ”

"Wait!" Yang Yun couldn't help but interrupt Shinji Mikami, who was talking about Xing, and asked with an unchanged expression, "4 protagonists?" So how should you express the content of your game? Similar to Laura taking three other people to fight together, team up to kill the enemy and flee? ”

Shinji Mikami's eyes sparkled, this was his most important opportunity. He intends to impress the decision-maker in front of him with this craziest idea: "No, I want to allow players to play multiple different characters in the same map. Standing in different positions, generating different plots! ”

This game mode has only been seen in real-time strategy games. Two players can operate their troops at the same time to fight on the same map, but 3D adventure AVG games do just that. No one has ever achieved it.

Inoue Yanxiong frowned and asked, "We have never had such a precedent, you want to make Resident Evil 1 an adventure game with multiplayer, have you ever thought about its workload?" 4 players play together and fight together, how to design and arrange the plot? If there are only 3 people, or 2 people playing online, or 1 person playing single-player, how should the rest of the NPC protagonists design the plot? ”

His doubts are normal, Jill, Rebecca, Barry, and Chris are four people, and the number of players can produce 15 different plots, and such a huge workload will make programmers crazy.

Yang Yun understood as soon as he heard it, Shinji Mikami definitely didn't mean that, but Inoue Yanxiong's doubts prompted him and reminded him of the game "Diablo".

Even if 8 people are online, Diablo can complete the story, but the protagonist played by the player does not affect the ending of the plot, and it does not matter to the player whether there are 7 other people joining the game together.

But "Resident Evil 1" is different, if it is made into a dark mode, the online gameplay can be greatly improved, but the plot will shrink and be greatly reduced.

It's a pity that I can't make the game "Resident Evil Dark Edition", and the two can't be owned at the same time, Yang Yun secretly felt sorry in his heart.

Shinji Mikami saw that everyone had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "No, I didn't emphasize online combat. I just want to think that the people of the alpha squad are the protagonists, they still have two men and one woman left, and the beta squad also has a female team member, these four people make two perspectives, and the survivor of the fourth alpha squad is the villain, and it cannot be controlled by the player. ”

Inoue Yanxiong and Yang Yun glanced at each other, and everyone could accept this model.

Of course Yang Yun agrees, this is the form of the original, after all, AVG's adventure with a plot is much stronger than the RPG mode of Dark, which is much stronger in terms of substitution, which is actually the biggest feature of video games, and it is also what Longteng and Japanese game designers are best at, which is to fit the player's immersive feeling as much as possible.

Yang Yun listened to these men and women, alive, and the words villain felt very inconsistent, so he simply stood up in person, wrote four names on the blackboard, and introduced: "Okay, that's it." Alpha Squad male protagonist Chris, female protagonist Jill, we used these two to design two plots. Barry the survivor of the Alpha Squad, Rebecca the survivor of the Bravo team, and Wesker, the villain of the Alpha Squad, will participate in the game's story, but they are not controlled by the player. ”

He didn't interfere with Shinji Mikami's thinking, he just named the characters in the game, and the autonomy was still in the hands of Shinji Mikami.

Now that Yang Yun has set his sex, it is difficult for others to say anything, Mikami Shinji looked at this big framework, and his heart added a little thickness, which shows that Yang Yun supports him, and the general direction is not wrong.

Shinji Mikami said: "I still need to go back and think about the details of the plot. I can't come up with a concrete plan anytime soon, if I can. I hope Yang can always help......"

Yang Yun smiled and said, "No problem, as long as I'm in the real room." You can come to me at any time to discuss, or you can discuss with Inoue to modify the overall structure of the game. You are the main executor of the script, let your imagination run wild! ”

Of course, Inoue Yanxiong would not go against Yang Yun's wishes, and said: "As long as you encounter something uncertain, come to us, whether it is technology or plot." ”

Yang Yun solemnly reminded: "This is Longteng's first priority game in 1995, we have to compete with the original designer Fujiwara Tokuro, which is related to the prestige and influence of Longteng and Sony, you must pay attention to it!" After doing it successfully. You are the hero of Longteng! ”

Shinji Mikami suddenly felt that he was carrying a thousand pounds of burden on his body, but the strong sense of glory and the attention of the top management made him tremble excitedly: "Please rest assured that Mr. Yang and the seniors of Inoue are relieved!" I will definitely do my best to make the best results! ”

"OK, I hope you do what you say!" Yang Yun patted him on the shoulder and smiled encouragingly.

"Let's talk about the game mode, we need more creativity than just the story!"

Yang Yun knows the game mode, and the original version is simply a god creation. He was eager to hear Shinji Mikami's thoughts.

Shinji Mikami thought for a moment and said, "We can use the 3D game engine of Tomb Raider and modify it to a third-person perspective as much as possible, so that the sense of substitution will be higher." ”

Yang Yun laughed. Dude, you're still a little tender, and your ideas aren't so perfect!

Inoue didn't have any objections. He has completed "Tomb Raider" all, and he has not encountered any major technical difficulties. There's nothing wrong with Resident Evil doing this.

Yang Yun deliberately did not expose it. Leaving aside this problematic setting, he asked Xiang Tian instead: "Character design is a very important part, because this story takes place in the United States, do you have enough data on the models of European and American characters?" ”

Xiang Tian pushed his glasses and said: "We have only collected more than 20 copies of European and American characters, and they are not too complete, the most complete is Julie, the actor of Laura, and her father Jon. ”

Yang Yun shook his head: "No, we can't let Julie span multiple games, we still have to find a way to collect the perfect character model data." In this way, we have a global solicitation order, with the effect of "Tomb Raider" in front, I think it shouldn't be difficult to recruit the actors of "Resident Evil", right? ”

Xiang Tian asked in surprise: "Do you want to continue to use the publicity method of "Tomb Raider"?" ”

Yang Yun asked rhetorically, "Isn't it okay?" This was originally a very good publicity stunt, the game and the movie were released at the same time, and it was produced synchronously and displayed in all directions. ”

Xiang Tian said hesitantly: "But now the movie of "Tomb Raider" has not yet been completed, and the release time is this summer, many people are probably waiting to see your jokes......"

Yang Yun laughed: "Who is waiting to see my jokes? "Will Shadow of the Tomb Raider have less box office? Maybe who's going to see who's joke at that time!

Inoue coughed and added, "Square Enix......"

This!

Yang Yun couldn't help laughing: "Isn't Square Enix our person?" Oh yes, I only seem to have a 49% share of Final Fantasy, let alone their company...... They are not optimistic about the combination of game CG and movies, and they are not optimistic about the box office of the movie "Tomb Raider", right? ”

Inoue Yanxiong nodded: "Masashi Miyamoto didn't say it explicitly, it was inadvertently said by a person in charge of their special effects department on a non-public formal occasion, many of us know it, maybe no one dares to sue you ......"

Since that's the case...... Yang Yun pondered for a few minutes, quickly made several plans in his heart, and then rejected them one by one, and finally left a plan that looked good.

"OK, I've decided, all the CG parts of the plot of "Resident Evil 1" will be handed over to Square Enix, and I'll talk about it myself!" Yang Yun looked at everyone with a smile and said.

Everyone thought it was weird, especially Inoue Yoshio, who shivered for no reason.

Because he suddenly remembered that every time Yang Yun laughed like this before, there was a company...... Will be unlucky! (To be continued......)
