146 Search for the Phantom Sky Network
The "Game Management Manual" was quickly found, Ling Feng flipped through it, and found that it wrote the rules of game management, precautions, management methods, instruction sets and Q&A, but there was no account and password managed by GM. Of course, it's not surprising that this kind www.biquge.info of confidential information doesn't appear on such public documents.
In addition to this manual, I also found some other documents, such as planning documents for various operational activities, etc. These things were good things at this time, and they weren't something that Ling Feng was familiar with, so they had to be taken away. These documents provide an in-depth understanding of the details of each operational activity, which is the basis for developing a more perfect strategy.
Of course, in addition to these paper documents, he also took electronic documents with him. However, the file server is not here, and the electronic file will have to wait for a while, and it will be possible to get it until the IT department.
The password of the background account that can set the GM permission may also exist in the file server.
After searching in the operation and maintenance department, Ling Feng took Yi Xi and Ye Yu to the next floor.
The 17th floor was the Administration Department, and the finance, personnel, administration, logistics, and so on were all on this floor, but there was nothing worth Ling Feng caring about on this floor, so they continued to go up, and soon reached the 18th floor.
This floor is the IT department and the activity department, and the restaurant, activity room and other places for rest and activities are on this floor. At the same time, various test servers, file servers, and more for the game are also here.
The servers are managed by the IT department, so they are located in the IT department's workspace. From the stairs, you will find the IT department to the north.
The IT department doesn't have a lot of people, so there aren't many desks either. But the dirty and messy place, which was originally on par with the planning department, was also cleaned up.
On the east side of the IT department's workspace, there is a tightly closed room, and the partition wall is no longer frosted glass, but a solid wall, which occupies almost half of the workspace, which is the computer room.
It houses the most confidential and important thing in the company - the server.
The server stores all the company's development documents, program code, art resources, and even the finished game server and client. If you move the server here, you will take all the fruits of the company's labor with you.
The main purpose of his trip was to get them.
Although the computer room is well guarded, like any other room in reality, it is vulnerable and powerless in front of the game's capabilities. With a stroke of the spear, the entire door lock was cut, and with a slight push, the door of the machine room was open in front of you.
The various pipelines in the computer room are intricate, and the air conditioners and fans are arranged in a strange way, which makes it even more messy inside. However, the servers are neatly arranged on the shelves......
Looking at them one by one, Ling Feng almost remembered the function of each of them. File Server, Standby Server, Test Server 1, Test Server 2, Development Server, Backup Server, Validation Server, Web Server......
Each server is fixed in its own place, and the chassis is locked with a metal case.
In the past, Ling Feng might not have been able to take them, and he needed to find the keys all over the company, but now he had an easier way - he took out the light blade spear and cut it to the servers he needed one by one......
The file server is the main target of Lingfeng, which stores all the company's development content, all kinds of documents, code, art resources, and even the packaged server and client are also backed up in this server. So this server also has the most storage disks, with a full row of four.
You're welcome, take it all.
The second goal is the test server, which is the server that can run, as well as the database and client of the same version, and of course take it away.
The development server is a server used to test the functions of the new system at any time during the development of each system of the game, which contains the latest content that forms the game, and naturally cannot be let go, through which you may be able to know some content about the subsequent version.
The backup server stores backups of various documents and codes to prevent losses when the normal server is damaged. So this one can't be let go either.
……
Soon Ling Feng filled a pack full of storage disks, and only after discovering that nothing was missing here, did they go to the 19th floor.
The 19th floor is the art department, where all the models, scenes, skill actions, special effects, etc. in the game are completed. It can be said that without art, there would be no beautiful scenery and characters in the game. But like the Administration Department, there is also nothing Ling Feng needs here, and the things made by art are also stored on the file server, as long as the storage disk of the file server is taken away, all the achievements of the artists will be taken away.
Then they came to the last floor, the 20th floor.
The 20th floor is also divided into two parts, and the south part is the program department. All the program code and function implementation in the game are done in this area. Programs are the implementers of the rules of the game, they make every character move, every skill causes damage, and every piece of equipment has an effect.
The north part is the planning department, and it can be said that everything in the game is made by the people here. It's the planning that lays out all the rules in the game, and then lets the programs and artists implement them, so they are the commanders of the game's creation.
In the past, players didn't know about the game development, and the only thing they had been in contact with was GM, so they would scold GM whenever there was a problem. However, after GM has been carrying the pot for many years, with the increase of games and game companies, players have gradually learned that various settings are actually planned, so when there is a problem, they will curse the planning.
In addition to the planning department, the testing department is also here. The testing department, also known as QA, is the last group of people to check the game. It's also the department that looks the coolest in the game nerds - the job at work is to play games, play every day, and you can't play without playing!
In fact, the work of QA is somewhat similar to the work content of the studio in the game, that is, repetitive work.
For example, if there is a new activity in the game, then the QA's job is to test the activity to ensure that it does not have any bugs, game experience problems, etc. It looks like playing a game, but there is a certain process for QA to play, and they need to use all kinds of classes, various roles, various levels, various equipment, etc., and all the different situations that can have an impact on the event must be tested accordingly, and they must be tested many times.
If there is a drop in the event, they also have to test whether the drop rate is normal. How to measure? Non-stop, of course...... Non-stop ...... game until the amount of data is large enough to count the drop rate......
Ling Feng's job as an intern is planning and QA, his main test content is the difficulty of monsters, bosses, dungeons, etc. in the game, and the planning part is also for other planning, making difficulty, experience reference, etc.
Sitting in his original position, he turned his head to look at the familiar Rainy Park outside the window, and he felt some emotion in his heart. It's been a few months since I left, but the scenery here seems to have not changed. He didn't even put the computer away, was he waiting for himself to come back?
When I opened the drawer, there were notebooks I made, as well as various documents printed out at that time, and in addition to these, there were also some beautiful small boxes, which were the packaging boxes for small gifts given at company events. These things were not even taken away......
Seeing Ling Feng sitting in a position, he looked very emotional, and Yi Xi also thought of something-this is where Ling Feng works.
After sighing for a while, Ling Feng stood up and headed in the other direction of the work area.
To the west were the planners' work areas, and the rows of computers were still in their original positions, and Ling Feng could report the names of their masters one by one, and even faintly hear their laughter.
Where did they all go? Is it really as Kadia and Sister Yueyue said, it's gone?
He couldn't think of a clue, but there was something he thought he would have to take with him and use it for future research - that was their computer drive.
One by one, the computers were forcibly opened, and then the storage disks were removed and put into the backpack. Then he opened the drawer of the phantom sky, checked all the contents inside, found nothing special, and finally had to take his notebook with him.
Then he walked back and forth in the workspace a few more times, and there wasn't much he could find other than what he had already gotten. So I finally decided to leave, and when I returned to the community, I looked for clues from the storage disk.
At this moment, he accidentally saw the whiteboard next to him, and saw a few words written on it: We have a holiday in July, and remember to play the game when we receive the game client.
