Sun Peng was always happy after spending a whole day in Laobai's studio.
Although being abused for two hours made him a little depressed, when Chen Maolin explained that they had turned on the highest difficulty, Sun Peng understood one thing: when the game is officially released in the future, players only need to choose different difficulty levels.
There won’t be such a bad gaming experience. Of course, if you like self-abuse, you can also make them happy to the sky!
"The most important thing is the online gameplay!"
When summarizing, Chen Maolin said with a smile: "When playing alone, players need to organize their NPC friends, or subordinates, or even mercenaries to rob escorts, but after being online, they can play with friends... Of course, they
You can also be bodyguards and fight against those robbers. This is how our game is played. There will even be confrontations between players. As long as the technology allows, team battles with thousands of people can be realized!"
His eyes suddenly lit up, and Sun Peng quickly asked: "Then the question is, is the technology allowed?"
"This... we are working hard!"
After hesitating for a moment, Chen Maolin said calmly: "We have tried and evaluated that a one-hundred-versus-one-hundred team battle is no problem and can be achieved easily, but when the number of people increases to five hundred, it will be difficult for the host
The requirements for configuration, network, and even servers are relatively high; if the number of people increases to a thousand... to be honest, if we form a local area network based on the conditions of our studio, it will only be barely achievable."
After saying these words, Chen Maolin shook his head with regret.
A thousand players may not seem like many, but if placed on a small map in the game, it would be a "sea of people", which would put huge pressure on the game's computing mechanism. If both sides set up a battle formation, at the same time
If they charge and fight, it will be a disaster!
Chen Maolin and others have tried it, and under local area network conditions, the hardware equipment of Laobai Studio can barely achieve it.
You must know that in order to consider the speed and efficiency of game development, the hardware of Laobai Studio is definitely the world's top level. Not to mention ordinary players, even ordinary high-end players are far behind.
They can only barely play, what about the players?
but……
How difficult it is, how high Sun Peng’s expectations are!
Think about it, what they want to create is a "real" world, one with towns, wilderness, mountains, water and forests, a dynamic weather system, a trading system, a bounty and wanted system, as well as various sects and government officials
of six doors...
Anyway, everything Sun Peng can think of is available in "The Legend of Laobai Qunxia 3"!
If it weren't for this world, and the technology of this era is much higher than that of the earth, it would be hard for Sun Peng to imagine that Laobai Studio could make such a martial arts game. Even if he doesn't care about the investment, he wants people to give people and money.
It’s impossible to give money so quickly!
So after nodding his head to express his satisfaction, Sun Peng asked: "If we guarantee the current high-end configuration... I mean, a computer configuration of about 10,000 yuan, and ensure that they can play smoothly, what is the highest possible limit?
people?"
"this……"
After hesitating for a moment, Chen Maolin seemed to have made some calculations in his mind, and then said with a wry smile: "If it is now, at most one hundred people versus one hundred people! If the time is extended to the end of next year... Well, two hundred versus two hundred
It’s definitely no problem, three hundred versus three hundred is a bit difficult!”
"Okay, then let's work hard in this direction!"
Upon hearing Chen Maolin's words, Sun Peng immediately felt relieved.
Three hundred versus three hundred?
It's enough!
In fact, Sun Peng also knows very well in his heart, what if Laobai Studio comes up with a thousand versus one thousand design? After the game is released in the future, can players really organize a war of this scale?
Not very realistic.
Even if there is a gaming guild or something that can be organized, it probably only happens once in a long time, so there is no need to spend a lot of energy and time preparing for it.
If most people play, it should be in a small team of just a few people.
Firstly, if there are too many people, it is impossible to cooperate, which affects the fun and experience of the game; secondly, ordinary players only play with a few friends in life, such as a friend in the dormitory, or a friend in the class, etc.
When there are too many people, the voice channel becomes a mess. How to play?
So after another pause, Sun Peng continued: "As for the ability to accommodate more people in team battles, we can continue to improve and improve in the future, and just take our time. Haha, our "Lao Bai Qun Xia Zhuan 3"
But the vitality of an online game is definitely much stronger than that of One and Two, and there is plenty of time."
"Boss, "The Legend of Laobai Qunxia 2" also has a strong vitality."
Upon hearing Sun Peng's words, Chen Fengzhi quickly laughed and said: "So far, we are still selling a lot every month. We even sold 110,000 copies last month, and our studio has earned tens of millions!"
"Ah? Really?"
"Don't forget, "The Legend of Laobai Qunxia 2" is an open world game!"
Seeing Sun Peng's surprised look, Chen Fengzhi complained in his mind about the boss's incompetence while smiling on his face: "In addition, we have released the official mod production tools, and we have continued to improve ourselves.
The game is becoming more and more beautiful, and the gameplay is also becoming more and more beautiful.
With the added variety, the vitality is naturally not comparable to the linear plot of "The Legend of Laobai Qunxia 1"... But having said that, due to the popularity of the second part, our "The Legend of Laobai Qunxia 1" is also constantly being purchased by new players.
Basically, there are tens of thousands of sales per month.”
"Okay, very good!"
After hearing what Chen Fengzhi said, Sun Peng was very happy.
In fact, strictly speaking, the openness of "Laobai Heroes 2" is not particularly strong, at least compared with those well-known top games, it is still far behind! But again, Laobai Studio is very lucky, because they have
A boss who doesn’t care about input and output!
After all, "The Legend of Laobai Heroes 2" was still a bit inferior, which made Sun Peng feel regretful. Therefore, after the game was released and the focus of Laobai Studio began to shift to "The Legend of Laobai Heroes 3", he asked Chen Fengzhi to leave a small team.
team……
Although it is said to be a small team, the number of people is still more than thirty!
If it is some small companies, this is almost their entire team. Even for some medium-sized games, this is almost the number of development teams. In Laobai Studio, thirty people are just maintaining and continuing to develop "
It’s just the team of "Lao Bai Qun Xia Zhuan 2".
Anyway, in Chen Fengzhi's initial opinion, the price/performance ratio was not high.
However, it is precisely because of the existence of these thirty people, coupled with some players' mods, that the vitality of "Lao Bai Qun Xia Zhuan 2" has always been very strong, and it has also maintained a relatively high popularity in major game forums.
.
They will even release a DLC this summer.
Sun Peng was naturally very satisfied with this, and nodded with a smile: "I have recently written some good soundtracks, and I will package them up and send them to you, so they can be put into "The Legend of Lao Bai Qun Xia 3". Moreover, the game is made
It doesn’t matter if it’s slower, it doesn’t matter if it can’t be put on the shelves next summer. As long as it can be done well, it’s acceptable to postpone it to the year after next…”
