Chapter 321: How embarrassing is this

As autumn approaches, recruitment information from some traditional online game companies has begun to appear on some recruitment websites, with the words "stand-alone project" clearly marked in parentheses. These job postings are from Huang Yi and Tenghua.

The former appears two weeks earlier than the latter.

These are among so many game companies in China, referring to the large kind, the first two to set up a stand-alone game development studio.

They have money, strength, information, and information...... In fact, when Ye Shenxi left the capital, during the three days he was there, he met some people and talked about something, and the truth began to spread to all corners of the Chinese game industry.

What is revealed must be promising, and the unreliable ones will not end up in the market.

Huang Yi's Ding Sanshi told Ding Yicheng that he could speed up, and Tenghua quickly began to conduct internal discussions with Huang Yi as the standard after Huang Yi's "Hongjun Studio" had begun to be formed, and then Ren Yueqin waved his hand and decided to set up a stand-alone game studio.

The things accumulated in the field of stand-alone machines, even if they are used to make large-scale 3DMMORPGs, are very useful.

His rights in Tenghua are greater than Ding Yicheng's in Huang Yi...... Although they are both responsible for their respective corporate game businesses, the owners of the two companies actually have different attitudes towards games.

Huang Yi's Ding Sanshi is a gamer himself, he likes games, he also pays attention to games, and will put forward his own opinions on the development process of games, he is the biggest game producer, and he controls too many things.

Tenghua is different, although the boss Hua Teng is also a programmer, he is more typical and standard, looking at the game with a completely product-oriented vision, emphasizing logic and experience...... More things that he didn't understand very well needed more emotional things, so he completely left it to Ren Yueqin to do.

And Ren Yueqin did not disappoint him over the years.

In the recruitment information, in addition to the traditional requirements, such as: rich game experience, have a wide range of games on various platforms;

Good sense of teamwork, strong communication skills, able to communicate effectively with employees in other departments, and quickly integrate into the team;

Have the ability to self-summarize and be proficient in using commonly used office software;

Or have ideals and drive, and bear hardships and stand hard work...... Can accept overtime and so on......

These are the basic conditions that are always talked about.

In addition to these, there are also some different requirements added to different recruitment positions, such as experience in high-precision model modeling required by artists...... The program requires a certain understanding of some mainstream free and commercial engines at home and abroad, and it is best to have experience in using them...... Planning, especially copywriting, requires a certain understanding of foreign fashion trends, especially European and American fashion trends, and the aesthetic ability to distinguish the preferences and tastes of European and American players......

Level design capabilities are also emphasized. In fact, in domestic game planning, the previous level planning is extremely lacking, and few companies will make such a requirement.

In the past, domestic games, the so-called level design could be put to use, and it was basically the copy design, of course, this was all after the popularity of "Warcraft". Some companies don't call it level planning, but they just have a new team called the "Quest Team" in the execution plan, and then have them design the quest.

Add things like traps, detours, monster AI, or very simple decryption elements to your dungeon...... That's all, but the real level design is far more complex than the data in the dungeon that needs to be verified by various servers.

But now Huang Yi and Tenghua's recruitment content has mentioned this.

If you look closely, there is another one of them, which requires sufficient understanding of the FG digital distribution platform, and the number of games in the library is not less than 10.

Basically, I directly told the applicants and the general public which platform the project made by this team would be put on in the end......

……

Usually the recruitment information of each company will be posted on the Internet all the year round, and for some small and medium-sized companies, sometimes there is really no need to recruit, and they will always be ...... It's time to advertise the company itself, to increase its popularity or something, and investors still feel thriving when they look at it.

Large companies like Huang Yi and Tenghua do have the need to continue to recruit new people for 12 months a year, and headhunting, school recruitment, and social recruitment are also multi-pronged.

Normally, except for job seekers in the industry, or newcomers who aspire to enter these companies and the gaming space, they will pay attention to job postings, and where will players pay attention to these things. But this time it's different, and what is revealed on the job posting is already obvious.

The content of the job advertisement was screenshotted and posted on the forum.

"What's the situation...... Is this still the Huang Yi and Tenghua I know? ”

"Tenghua and Huang Yi are also going to play stand-alone games?"

"It's very simple, watching the herring make money......"

"I've seen reports before that some small companies have also started to make stand-alone games, and they have started to make some small money on FG, but if it's these two, it should be a big project...... Why don't you do a project like ProjectC and ProjectD like Herring ProjectB......?"

This player is not realistic......

"I think too much upstairs, Huang Yi doesn't have that technology, as for Tenghua? A decent large-scale MMO can't be taken out, and if you do 3A, you may not be able to do it for ten years, and if you do it, you will lose money. ”

"But at least it's a role model for more game companies, right?"

"I don't know why...... It's a bit of a sense of oppression...... It always feels like something big is going to happen......"

……

……

Even so, the recruitment speed of Qingyu Network is still much faster than theirs......

By October, the entire ProjectB project team, plus the members of the two studios in Funan and Seattle, had more than 160 people, and the key was that this was not a large number of entry-level work such as executive planning, filling out forms, matching data, managing art resources, or junior program art, debugging development tools and then troubleshooting, modifying existing art resources, and patching up the seams into their own content, but the backbone of real combat effectiveness.

Most of them are old people in the game industry who can take charge of their own games in other game companies.

In the planning of Ye Shenxi and Xia Qingyu, these are talents who have accumulated enough experience to disperse to multiple project teams after the completion of ProjectB and become the cornerstone of multiple projects.

Oh, it can't be called ProjectB anymore, Ye Shenxi has decided on the official name of the project, and it was officially announced in CGS in 2009 at the end of August, the name of the game is "Getaway......

At this point, the reputation of the difficult name of the Qingyu network development team has officially spread...... The domestic media were in an uproar, and the foreign media were confused...... That's probably the case.

Let's not talk about the names of the previous games.,In general, it's also a game name.,But what's the trouble with "Getaway"? Have you cut corners to this point? Are they all directly named after the first philosophical outline of the Zhuangzi?

It's a shame that Zhuangzi has been dead for more than 50 years, otherwise there would be some copyright disputes......

And the most important thing is that through this name, you can't guess what kind of story it is!

You talk about other games, "Assassin's Faith" can always guess that it is an assassin's story, assassination, Wushuang or something...... Then "Crysis" can also guess that it is a story that takes place on a lonely island, it can't be called "Crysis", but the story takes place in the desert! Even if it's a Chinese translation of a name like "The Four of Life and Death", you can guess that it's a four-player online game.

Okay, how do you guess "Getaway"...... How do you write a manuscript?

China's game media took out their mobile phones or laptops at the booth of Qingyu Network at that time, and began to check the Internet with traffic, by the way, the current 3G signal has a high coverage rate, 70% of the country's prefecture-level cities have been covered with 3G signals, and the network speed is indeed much faster than the previous 2G and edge......

As a result, everyone turned to the original text, or other web pages to explain, oh, to describe unrestrained free activities. Should that be partly an expression of the freedom of the player in the game world? Unfettered by any constraints, the degree of freedom is beyond the past?

The manuscript is here.

Some people think that maybe it is to express a state of forgetting about things and self, and swim in infinite ideological connotations without any basis? The story is a tragedy, maybe the protagonist ends up with amnesia...... Well, the manuscript is back again.

How many editors and reporters want to make a fortune from this game.

And these knowledge domestic media, Qingyu Network did not announce the English name this time, unlike the previous "Eternal War" name when the name was announced, it also announced "Offense Never Ends" by the way, this time it is a Chinese name.

In the past, when our country's media faced foreign manufacturers announcing the name of the game, they naturally did not publish the English name at the same time, but needed to translate it according to the English name or refer to the game content.

Now it's the turn of the foreign press to translate Chinese...... I endured the exchange of courtesies......

But it's not fair!

How to translate "Getaway"?

There are many foreign media who are paying attention to Huangpu CGS at the end of August, and there are also many foreign manufacturers at the exhibition, which is already a worldwide exhibition. After asking around with these media, they found that Zhuangzi's book was available in English, and there were quite a few editions, and they simply used various English translations, some of which used "Carefree Excursion" and "A Happy Excursion......

They all know very well,Let's replace it first.,After more content of the game is revealed, it will be slowly determined according to the content.,Maybe it's not long before the official English name of Fisoa will be revealed.。

As the new boss of China, this year's Qingyu Network has taken over the traditional No. 1 position from the original Shengda, that is, Booth 1 of Hall 1 of Huangpu International Convention and Exhibition Center.

This position symbolizes the status of the domestic boss, and it has been held in the hands of Shengda in previous years, only in last year's 08 sports year, out of etiquette to the sports factory EA. But this year, there is no reason for the herring network not to occupy this booth.

That's how snobbish the organizers are...... But you must still negotiate with Shengda first, and Shengda also maintained enough grace in this matter, and agreed very happily, and by the way, he retreated directly to Hall 2.

The organizer Han Wei Xinheng did not inform the Qingyu Network in advance of this matter, otherwise Xia Qingyu would definitely have to push it off, and she didn't care if the Qingyu Network was in the No. 1 position, anyway, where the Qingyu Network was, where was the No. 1 position...... And this is still an offending thing, there is no need for this.

However, Hanwei Xinheng only notified the Qingyu Network after getting Shengda...... From their point of view, it should be so, otherwise notify Qingyu first, and Qingyu agreed to negotiate with Shengda, so what if Shengda doesn't do it?

However, the personnel department of Qingyu Huangpu still expressed its humility, and said to Hanweixin Hengfang on the phone: "How embarrassing is this." ”
