Now Myron Keys has invested more than half of the game department's resources in Infinite World, and has no interest in paying attention to the invitation from Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.
The Olympics are not held in the United States, and he has no enthusiasm for video games, nor does he have the idealism of video games like Zhu Yuxing.
He completely regards video games as a money-making tool, a means to increase the influence and sales of his smartphones and PCs.
Now the popularity of the game Infinite World is no less than that of the early days of Cyberpunk 2077.
Myron Case, who is well versed in marketing and publicity strategies, directly arranges the team to carry out high-intensity marketing strategies.
This game will definitely be an epoch-making product, and their products will also rise again because of the infinite world.
So far, Myron Keys has invested more than 100 million in this game, and he is very generous in continuing to increase investment.
Compared to the enthusiasm of Myron Keys and the publicity team, the young man with an afro in the game development department seemed very upset.
"This technical difficulty has never been overcome."
The young man with an afro and a dozen people gathered together to discuss the development of their infinite world.
"Is there really no way to join the multiplayer game?" the young man with an afro asked first.
Another technical programmer under him shook his head: "No, at least judging from the current construction period, it is completely impossible. Unless Mickford is willing to let us extend it for another six months, then our online technology should be able to be realized.
"
"Half a year...now the boss wants us to release the game right now."
The young man with an afro looks sad.
Then he asked: "What about the game's construction mode? Can this mode be implemented?"
The programmer replied: "This construction mode is even more complicated and difficult than the online mode. We first need enough time to model. Part of this work can be handed over to AI, which can save us a lot of time. But according to
Judging from the current construction period, it is still impossible to achieve it. It would be great if our number of people was large enough from the beginning."
The young man with an afro was helpless: "One hundred people is the limit of what Mickford can provide."
The infinite world is this young man’s gaming dream.
He has been fond of video games since he was a child and devoted himself to the development of game technology.
When he had a sudden inspiration one day and created this nearly infinite world, he was ecstatic.
Then he took his roommates to develop the game together and created the basic prototype of the game.
However, it is not enough for this game to be just a prototype. This game needs more content to be filled.
Just relying on the gimmick of infinite worlds is no fun at all.
As a player, he can at least know whether the game is fun or not. As for why it is not fun, he cannot have a very clear answer.
So far, their team has brainstormed many ways to play the game.
These include construction mode, player online mode, battle mode, space campaign mode, loot mode, wanted mode, etc.
The functional gameplay of these games is really interesting when they are put together.
They also used these as gimmicks when they first went on stage to promote the game, successfully attracting many players to pay attention to the game.
But so far, the only gameplay modes they can implement are an infinite world, a very simple space war, and simple functions of collecting and producing spaceships.
If this game is produced by Youxing Electronic Entertainment, then Zhuyousing will decisively arrange a team of more than 1,000 people to carry out a development cycle of more than three years.
Only in this way can we ensure that the content of this game is rich enough, and that it can be rich without too much repetitive and boring content.
However, at Mickford's side, the funds are indeed relatively sufficient, but they are very stingy in terms of manpower.
Myron Keys firmly disagrees with hiring more employees to work on game development.
He actually agreed to outsource some of the resources for production.
But it is very difficult to realize so many creative ideas of young people with afros.
The outsourcing team worked hard to produce the resources, but the main development team was unable to add the prepared resources into the game due to various technical reasons.
Once you join, there will be many bugs and loopholes, and it will take time to check and fix them.
Ultimately, lack of time is the biggest problem.
But Myron Keys was determined not to make concessions in this regard.
He believes that the game does not need to be so detailed, as long as it has attractive enough gimmicks.
That way you can attract some players to come and play.
"I'll go talk to the boss again and try my best to see if we can get him to postpone our game."
Nowadays, young people with afros are somewhat helpless.
At this moment, he also regretted that he should have gone to Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
Although the money offered there may be less, it may also be easier to talk to.
After all, he is the god of games.
But it doesn't make any sense to think about it so much now.
A few minutes later, the young man with an afro returned to the group of people dejectedly and told some not-so-good news.
"The boss doesn't agree to the extension. The manpower can be slightly increased by 50 people, but this is the limit."
"Fifty people... do not make any sense in developing a game of this scale. There is still more than a month until the game is released, so it is simply too late."
The young man with an afro gritted his teeth and said: "Let's do our best. No matter what, we have at least tried hard. If the final result of the game's release is not good, we can slowly make up for it later and make it what we want to do."
Everything is made.”
"It can only be the……"
A dozen core developers each returned to work with heavy hearts.
They have not had a break for almost half a year and work more than twelve hours a day.
But in fact, their work efficiency is relatively low most of the time.
But now they have no solution. When they encounter technical problems, they can only try to solve them. If they can't solve them, they can only stay stuck like this.
Myron Keys sent away the young man with the afro, and he was actually in a pretty good mood now.
Because the popularity of Infinite World is indeed very good, many people have already purchased their PC products and game consoles in advance because of this game, and sales have increased by more than 50% compared to before.
This has also allowed Mickford's stock price to rise rapidly in a short period of time, which overall seems to be a pretty good profit.
Now even if the game's reputation finally collapses, it won't be a big problem, because its hardware has been sold.
It doesn't matter if the players finally get frustrated and refund the game, he has already made money through the hardware.
And he also thinks that even if this game doesn't work, doesn't he have other games that are fun?
