  Chapter 1130 Resign yourself to fate

  Infinite World is released.

   Just ten days after the end of the Traveling Star Carnival.

  It was almost the same as Zhu Youxing had expected at first.

   This time, the Star Carnival really saw a reduction in the size of the player base.

  Although there is only a decrease of about 3%, it can indeed prove that Mickford's infinite world has played an unexpected role.

  Many players hope to be able to play this cross-age game that has been hyped to the sky for the first time.

   But at the same time, various public opinions and reviews of this game are also appearing in many places.

  Some people claiming to be insiders broke the news that Infinity World is actually a semi-finished game. This game is just a concept, and many of the gameplay content promised before may not be realized.

   But this kind of voice will be suppressed soon, and it will be difficult to make too many waves on the Internet.

  Zhu Youxing also tried to buy this game, ready to go back home and experience the so-called cross-age game in this world.

   Let's see if it will be better than No Man's Sky in the previous life.

   "Zhuyou, what are you playing?"

  In Zhu Youxing's home, Zhu Youxing is alone in his study, ready to play this infinite world.

  Zhu Youcai walked in at this time, holding the cut fruit in his hand, came to Zhu Youxing's side and looked curiously at the computer screen in front of Zhu Youxing.

   "The game just released by Mickford is called Infinite World."

   "Are you playing too?" Zhu Youcai said with some surprise, "I see that many people announced today that they are playing the game Infinite World."

  Zhu Youxing nodded: "Well, the popularity of this game is quite high recently, wouldn't it be a loss if you don't experience it?"

"But I remember you said in the meeting before that this game will have a lot of troubles, and it will not be a good game? And it seems that there have been a lot of related negative news on the Internet recently, which also confirms your judgment on this game .”

   "You can only know what it is like by getting started. By the way, what about the child?"

"Xiaomeng is taken care of by someone, don't worry, let me see how the infinite world you play is first, if it's fun, I'll play it too, I remember that this game seems to have a multiplayer mode? The two of us can play online Let's play."

  Zhu Youxing shook his head, then pointed to the screen and said: "There is no multiplayer mode anymore. It seems that this team has very little development experience. They encountered many development problems and no one helped them solve them."

   "Huh? It's just a multiplayer mode, how difficult can it be?" Zhu Youcai was a little puzzled.

   "That is not difficult for Youxing Electronic Entertainment, but it is indeed not an easy task for ordinary game developers."

  Zhu Youcai thought for a moment, and she had already thought of at least three solutions to join the multiplayer mode in her mind.

   But this is based on the experience she already has over twenty years of game development.

  In addition, there is Zhuyouxing, Youxing Electronic Entertainment, and the special edition Unreal Engine exclusively for Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.

  The combination of these multiple factors made Zhu Youcai think that adding a multiplayer mode to a game is not a problem at all.

   However, for some people it is indeed a problem.

   "Okay, I'm in, you can take a look at the side, if you want to play, just say, I can let you play."

   After finishing speaking, Zhu Youxing pulled a chair from the side and asked Zhu Youcai to sit on it.

  Zhu Youcai walked to Zhu Youxing and sat down, then gently leaned against Zhu Youxing's side and patiently watched Zhu Youxing play the game.

  Zhu Youxing's body moved slightly, then calmed down quickly, and then began to enter the infinite world game.

  …

  The young man with the afro still failed to solve the problem of multiplayer mode before the game was released.

   They got tangled up in some procedural clutter and code gibberish.

  In the beginning, they were a team of more than a dozen people working together to develop the game. At that time, their teamwork was relatively close.

   Later, Mickford sent over a hundred people to provide technical support, which solved some complex code writing problems for them.

  But there are new problems later, that is, these newly joined programmers do not fully understand their game development methods.

  He often has to communicate with these people, and then try his best to make the codes and programs they type can be stably integrated with the game itself.

   Just doing these tasks is already a bit exhausted.

   Later, they didn't even have time to make an online mode.

  As Zhu Youxing said, young people with afro are too young.

   And Mike Foo didn't give them a good support job.

  Mickford’s own game development so far is not too strong, so naturally there is no way to give them better technical support for this team.

  It is the greatest help to help them alleviate some manpower shortages.

  Actually, giving them half a year would definitely solve the problem, but Myron Keith did not agree.

  He still insisted on making the game release on schedule.

  According to his words: "Youxing Electronic Entertainment's games are released on time every time, and sometimes they can even be released in advance. Why can't you release them on time? Why do you always have so many problems?"

  The people in the game development department also have hardships.

  Youxing Electronic Entertainment games are not postponed because people always confirm the release time when the game is basically completed.

  The release date will never be announced until it is completed.

   In this way, even if Youxing Electronic Entertainment encounters some unexpected situations, it can have an excuse to let the game be polished slowly.

  Moreover, players are very tolerant of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

  If someone else’s game doesn’t announce the release date after it’s released, it’s probably already scolded to death by the players.

   But Youxing Electronic Entertainment can be willful.

  Because players know that Yuxing Electronic Entertainment can bring them the most fun games.

   "Hey... let fate..."

  The young man with an afro looked at the released game and shook his head helplessly.

   But he doesn't intend to give up.

  No matter what the sales volume after the game is, it will not be a reason for him to give up.

  He has already made arrangements with his team, and the next job will not be too easy. They have to hurry up and make up for the various shortcomings in the early stage of the game.

   This is a game that they put a lot of effort into, and they don't want this effort to end up as an eternal regret with an unfinished product.

  So he wants to do his best to make up for it.

   As for player word of mouth, he actually already has a little hope.

   On the first day, the sales volume of Infinite World exploded, and the sales volume on the first day exceeded one million. It should have been only a medium-sized game, but it had the potential to be on par with large-scale games.
