Chapter 108: "Biochemical Survival" (Subscription Requested)
For example, a game like Biochemical Survival that Yang Chen is developing, without involving a linear plot, adopts a mirror battle mode of gameplay, and the biggest advantage is that there is no need to complete the development of all the content before going online. 126shu
For example, the map in the game, as well as the main gameplay modes, and even the types of guns and zombies, basically half of the content is completed, or two-thirds of the content can be released online, and to put it more simply, it is the EA version.
Usually as some follow-up funds are insufficient, it is necessary to return the funds first, or out of cost control of the project.
But it's not a bad way to get started with game development, and it's the obvious benefit of allowing players to get involved in the game early and give suggestions for how to improve the game.
The game is in full swing, and after outsourcing some of the projects, the complete design idea of the entire game has been determined, and the development speed is much faster than expected.
At the same time, there are more and more content exposed to Biochemical Survival, and without investing in publicity costs, it is certainly impossible to grab the topic heat with the recently launched masterpieces.
But Yang Chen himself has more than one million fans, plus fans of Nebula Games, which still gives Biochemical Survival some attention, such as the game Starry Sky and other well-known media have opened game sections about Biochemical Survival.
However, some of the information that has been revealed,For the gameplay or anything, it didn't reveal too much.,Except for knowing that this is a multiplayer mode.,And the perspective is not the third-person over-the-shoulder style of the previous Resident Evil.,No more things are understood.。
But there are still many people who speculate about the content in the game.
"Do you remember the Giant Mountain Mental Hospital inside the escape? Don't you think those weird psychos are similar to zombies? It is very likely that the Giant Mountain Psychiatric Hospital is also one of Ambrera's research institutes in Resident Evil, dedicated to the study of new viruses, just like Raccoon City, where the virus leak led to the destruction of the Giant Mountain Mental Hospital. ”
"Quite possibly! It does feel a bit like that, but the trailer has a shot of Leon and King Ada fighting zombies at the police station, what's going on? ”
"That's right!"
"There is also the Giant Mountain Mental Hospital, and the picture of Claire and Shirley appearing."
Along with the bragging rights of a plot study, new players soon find new loopholes and offer counter-arguments.
A group of people in the forum community are speculating about the content of the game plot about BioShock.
In the office, looking at the players discussing the topic of biochemical survival, Yang Chen couldn't help but smash his mouth, and then let out a sigh of emotion.
"What a genius these players are!"
A group of people said in the community forum that they would have believed it if it weren't for the fact that the game was developed by him.
also connects the plot of escape and Resident Evil, which is really full of brains.
"Ah Chen, how should I get this place!?"
When Yang Chen sighed, Wang Yaliang next to him suddenly shouted.
Hearing Wang Yaliang's shout, Yang Chen leaned over.
Find function in Matab.
"What are you doing? Study the numbers? Yang Chen asked a little curiously as he helped him get it right.
It's as sneaky as being a thief.,Even the GDD file added a password and didn't show it to yourself.,What is this for.。
"You'll know when the time comes" Wang Yaliang said confidentially, and Yang Chen was stunned for a moment.
In the end, Yang Chen still didn't know what she was doing, and Yang Chen slowly forgot about this matter along with the development of the biochemical survival project.
"Damn, we've got a traitor! Why are there infected people in our pile! ”
"You deserve it, you guys like to grab the spot!"
"This zombie is invincible! This knockback is a bit too small, it needs to be modified! ”
"No, press the switch! Stop farming zombies, teleport soon! ”
A group of people in the office were shouting and playing the game in the name of testing the game.
And Yang Chen grabbed a knife and followed the team to paddle.
After about half an hour of entertainment, everyone withdrew from the test.
The whole game is basically the same, and some bugs have been fixed by testing.
At present, there are three modes in the game, namely the PVE level mode, and the zombie infection and zombie escape mode in PVP.
As for the hide-and-seek mode, it has not yet been developed.
The functions on the server side have almost been completed, and several internal stress tests have been carried out, basically ensuring that there are no problems, 250,000 server rental and maintenance costs per month, with the increase of players, this number will increase, this list Yang Chen finally went to Wang Chang'an's Jiasheng side.
In addition, including the official port, Yang Chen also opened a recharge port, this game is different from the previous games, and there is an in-app purchase recharge component.
It's also an attempt at their Nebula game.
"I finally know why a large number of game manufacturers are looking for third-party publishers to represent their games." Looking at the account that was spending money like water in the office, Yang Chen couldn't help but sigh.
Follow-up server operating costs, including customer service costs outsourced by third parties, as well as advertising investment costs, and so on.
The game itself, including outsourcing and team salaries, as well as subsidies, plus some miscellaneous expenses, cost 30 million, but the third-party cost in addition to the development fee is already close to 40 million.
"We are actually not short of money, the overseas revenue of Resident Evil has arrived, and the combination of Isaac and the mobile phone transplant of Octopath Traveler is almost complete." Xu Yu was not worried at all.
"And Mr. Yang, we can apply for a loan from the bank."
Speaking of which, Xu Yu was a little helpless.
Isn't it normal for businesses to speed up their development and take out mortgages from banks?
He didn't know why Yang Chen was so resistant to this approach.
"I don't like to owe money to others." Yang Chen was very attentive and said without lying at all.
That's what he really said.
Hearing Yang Chen's words, Xu Yu was completely speechless.
"In addition, the overseas distribution agent on the side of Biochemical Survival, Mr. Yang's UEgame side is still the most sincere one, but the conditions are a bit problematic, except for the five-year agency distribution right, they require the permission to operate and modify the game in overseas regions." Xu Yu said to Yang Chen.
What is the operation and modification permission of overseas regions?
"Don't give it!"
Yang Chen didn't even want to hear their conditions, and replied directly.
Hearing this, Xu Yu was helpless again.
