  Chapter 1127 Big Trouble in the Infinite World Game

  Now Myron Keith devotes more than half of the resources of the game department to Infinite World, and has no interest in ignoring the invitation from Youxing 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 Youxing.

  He simply 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 infinite world game is not weaker than that of the original cyberpunk 2077.

   Myron Case, who is well versed in marketing promotion 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 Keith has invested more than 100 million yuan in this game, and he continues to increase investment very generously.

  Compared to the enthusiasm of Myron Case and the publicity team, the young man with an afro in the game development department seemed very upset.

   "This technical difficulty has never been broken through."

  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 programmer with a technical background under him shook his head: "No, at least judging from the current construction schedule, it is completely impossible, unless Mike Fu is willing to let us postpone it for another half a year, then our online technology should be able to be realized. "

   "Half a year... Now the boss wants us to release the game now."

  The young man with an afro looks sad.

   Then he asked again: "What about the construction mode of the game? Can this mode be realized?"

The programmer replied: "This construction mode is even more complicated and difficult than the online mode. We first need enough time for modeling. Part of this work can be handed over to AI to perform, which can save us a lot of time. But according to Judging from the current construction period, it is still impossible to achieve, if only we have enough people from the beginning."

  The young man with an afro was helpless: "One hundred people is already the limit that Mickford can provide."

   Infinite world is the game dream of this young man.

  He has been fond of video games since he was a child, and has devoted himself to the development of game technology.

  When one day he had a sudden inspiration and created this nearly infinite world, he was ecstatic.

   Then he brought his roommates to develop the game together, and created the basic prototype of the game.

  However, the prototype of this game is not enough. This game needs more content filling.

   Just relying on the gimmick of infinite world is not 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 has no way to have a very clear answer.

   So far, their team has imagined many ways to play this game through brainstorming.

  Including construction mode, player online mode, battle mode, space battle mode, looting mode, wanted mode and so on.

  The functional gameplay of these games looks really interesting together.

   They also used these as gimmicks when they first appeared on the stage to promote, and successfully attracted many players to pay attention to this game.

  But so far the only gameplay modes they can realize are an infinite world, a very simple space war, and simple collection and production of spaceships.

  If this game is produced by Youxing Electronic Entertainment, then Zhuyouxing should decisively arrange a team of more than 1,000 people for 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 it can also be rich without too much repetitive and boring content.

   But on Mi Kefu's side, the funds are indeed relatively sufficient, but the manpower and other aspects are very stingy.

  Myron Keith strongly disagreed with hiring more staff to participate in game development.

  He agreed to outsource some of the resources for production.

   But it is very difficult to realize so many creative ideas of young people with afro.

  Outsourcing worked hard to produce the resources, but the main development team was unable to add the prepared resources to the game due to various technical reasons.

   Once added, there will be many bugs, and it will take time to check and repair.

  In the final analysis, lack of time is the biggest problem.

   Myron Keith resolutely refused to make concessions in this regard.

  He thinks that the game does not need to be so detailed, as long as it has enough attractive gimmicks.

   That can attract some players to come and play.

   "I'll go talk to the boss again and try my best to see if he can postpone our game."

  Now the young people with afro have no choice.

  At this moment, he also has some regrets. He should have gone to Youxing Electronic Entertainment in the first place.

  Although the money given over there may be a little less, they should and may be more talkative.

   After all, he is the **** of games.

  But it doesn't make any sense to think so much now.

   A few minutes later, the young man with an afro head dejectedly returned to the crowd and told a piece of bad news.

  "The boss does not agree to the extension, and the manpower can be increased by 50 people, but this is the limit."

   "Fifty people... It doesn't make any sense in the development of a game of this scale. There is still more than a month before the game is released, and it is 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 our best. If the results of the final game release are not very good, we can slowly make up for it in the later stage. Everything is done."

"It can only be the…"

  A dozen core developers returned to work with heavy hearts.

  They haven't rested for nearly half a year, and they work more than twelve hours a day.

   But in fact, most of the time among them, the work efficiency is relatively low.

  But now they have nothing to do. 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 Keith sent away the young man with the afro, he is actually in a pretty good mood now.

  Because the popularity of Infinite World is really good, many people have already purchased his PC products and game console products in advance because of this game, and the sales volume has increased by more than 50% compared to before.

   And this also made Mi Kefu's stock price rise rapidly in a short period of time, which overall looks like a pretty good gain.

   Now even if the word-of-mouth collapse of this game is not a big problem, because his hardware has been sold.

   Gamers refund the game in the end **** off, he's already made money on the hardware.

   And he also thinks that even if this game doesn’t work, doesn’t he have other games that are fun.
