There is a Problem with This Online Game Planning

"Breakout" is on fire.

On the one hand, the quality of the game itself is excellent, and on the other hand, it is due to the hardware.

Although "Breakout" has only one mode.

But a biochemical model has completely subverted domestic players' perception of shooting online games.

What was the previous shooting online game.

The two sides shot at each other, died and reborn, and then came again.

This model is not bad.

But I always feel that something is missing, and there is only emptiness after the fun.

The biochemical patterns are different.

This is a very new way of playing for the players here.

At the beginning, they are all teammates, but as the game starts, you have to guard against the people around you, pray that you don’t become a zombie, and then think about what to do if you become a zombie.

Unknown, accompanied by a tense countdown.

It quickly gets players' adrenaline pumping.

And after the game officially started.

The excellent game screen and the excellent modeling of zombies give the overall atmosphere of the game a sense of terror, and the existence of guns dispels the sense of terror.

This makes the pace of the game very comfortable.

Not to mention nervous and exciting.

The trend of each round is completely different, and the process is full of unknowns.

Screen changes, gameplay changes, plus excellent momentum.

Finally let this game open beta day.

There is a tendency to explode.

Players stay online for a long time.

As for the video bloggers in the field of related games, of course, they don’t want to let go of this picture, which seems to have suddenly evolved and entered the game of the next century.

Some boasted wildly, some began to introduce the gameplay, some began to introduce the firearms that appeared in it, and some video bloggers even seriously studied the possibility of virus leaks in the game leading to human bites...

And these game-related videos, without exception, have become popular.

What does this situation look like?

When Lin Yao's previous life Black Wukong's first real machine demonstration video just came out.

"Breakout" is even more bombastic than it was back then.

Because the games of "Breakout" are all out.

And players with such a large-scale tap water caused the second problem.

hardware problem.

Although Lin Yao specially popped up a reminder when making an appointment, some players didn't take it seriously, and some players didn't make an appointment at all.

This caused this group of people to watch the video and want to play the game, but the hardware couldn't keep up, and they couldn't even enter the game.

After all, not everyone is a deep player.

Even Lin Yao’s former console players couldn’t have a 1060, let alone here... Most of the graphics cards here are still used in professional fields.

On the one hand, the game is really fun, and the graphics can be called epoch-making.

On the other hand, the hardware requirements of the game are too high, and many people can't even run the game.

The two reasons overlap.

Controversy ensues.

Some people think that Linmu Studio's doing this is simply sick, the game can't be played, so why do you make it, you need a graphics card, and the graphics card is so expensive.

And more people think, come on, it's a great thing for a small studio to make such an epoch-making game. If your computer is not good enough, why do you blame other people's game for doing it? Is it the same quality as before?

These arguments are not good, but they are not bad either.

Because with more and more arguments.

Games are also getting hotter.

In the end, the game even broke the circle and went straight to the top of the hot list.

And gradually set off a bigger storm.

A storm sweeping the entire game industry.

Those who were first affected were Mou Feng and Tang Xuan, who were engaged in the game-related industry. They paid attention to games and were shocked.

Then there are graphics card manufacturers.

Graphics card sales have increased significantly.

As "Breakout" rushed to the top of the hot list, more and more players played it, more and more players argued, and more and more players wanted to play it.

At this time, what should I do if the hardware can't keep up...buy it.

Then... More people knew about this game.

This is a closed loop.

I even heard that many foreign stand-alone manufacturers have heard of such a game.

After the boss of a big factory finished playing, the rumors immediately exploded with the phrase 'wtf'.

But whether it is true or not is currently unknown.

Foreign stand-alone manufacturers will not be mentioned for the time being.

But domestic online game companies are indeed aware of the game "Breakout".

They watched "Breakout" explode, and watched "Breakout" break the circle.

Then, something else came to mind...

...

"Breakout" exploded.

And broke the circle.

The game quality and gameplay have been praised, and the skin system added to the game has also been praised because it does not disrupt the game balance, and ordinary players can play happily without it.

This is a good thing for Linmu Studio.

But obviously, it's two happy things added together.

Lin Yao was not happy at all.

"Lin Yao, the vice president of Tianhu wants to meet with you..."

Mu Wanqing can't remember clearly how many times this is the first time she has come to report to Lin Yao.

"I don't see you... What are you seeing?"

Lin Yao replied weakly.

"Then Tang Xuan, the deputy editor-in-chief of the game player base, wants to interview you..."

"No, I don't accept it."

The two are talking.

Zhu Nianqiao suddenly ran over in a hurry and yelled: "Senior sister, someone outside came directly to the studio. They came to see you by name, and people from eBay ran down again. That deputy general manager Li, He also intends to bribe me..."

"Lock the door!"

Lin Yao raised her head and said helplessly: "Just lock the door, you can only go out but not in, and then we will directly hire a security guard at the door of the studio! No one else is allowed in!"

She just finished speaking.

Zhong Xiu came over again with a sad face: "Lin Yao, the phone number in the studio is almost ringing, and the outsourcer said that they can't contact us..."

"Pull the phone line!"

Lin Yao broke the jar and said, "Then go and get a new number."

Zhong Xiu: "..."

Mu Wanqing: "..."

Zhu Nianqiao: "..."

The three of them looked at each other, feeling a little helpless.

The game is on fire.

But Lin Yao and the others couldn't be happy for a few days, and fell into endless harassment...

If "Breakout" is just a game with special gameplay and loved by players, then it's fine.

At most, it is to let Linmu Studio earn more money and let more people know about such an innovative studio.

But "Breakout" is not only a game with special gameplay, but also a game that can be regarded as a cross-generational game.

At first, Lin Yao didn't realize the seriousness of the matter.

When "Breakout" just became popular, Lin Yao saw that the situation was good, so she added fire to the game, held a meeting, and then talked to the players about the issues they were interested in, such as the process of making the game, and the There are difficulties in the production of promotional videos.

And answered the players' questions, saying that the blue star icon is a self-developed game engine, and the promotional film is made by a real-time rendering engine. By the way, I told the players the difference between engine-made animation and traditional animation.

Then.

Then it became like this.

this time.

There are those who want to cooperate with Linmu Studio.

There are those who want to come to visit and ask for advice.

Seeing that Linmu Studio is small and wants to acquire or invest...

There are also those who want to interview and learn more about the details of game production.

All kinds of ghosts and ghosts jumped out in an endless stream.

Lin Yao was almost dying of worry...
