Chapter 14 New version, Xinghai Battlefield!
Zhong Ming opened the virtual bracelet, found the new version plan that had been written on it, and posted it directly in the internal chat software design group chat group.
Liu Yuxin is the supervisor and also opened the new version plan immediately in the chat group of the design group.
The same is true for others, including Xiong Kai, who have also opened up the new version plan, but the eyes are full of disbelief and 70% suspicion.
A newcomer who has just graduated and has just been working for less than two days can write a new version plan in such a short time?
How is this possible?
Liu Yuxin opened the new version of the plan. He felt very surprised when he saw it at first glance. The table was neatly made!
The new version planning is a large table with many different elements, such as the name of the new function, introduction, function details, art resource subdivision, design, program, art director, estimated working hours, progress, etc. Of course, there are no team leaders and working hours yet. Only after the functions are finalized can the task be assigned and the working hours are estimated, but at least there is no problem with the format of the entire table.
Liu Yuxin couldn't help but admire him. He was indeed a top student at Ming'an University!
Of course, it is useless to make a beautiful table. The key is to look at the content of the table, which is the details of the new function.
Liu Yuxin saw that the entire new version planning has a core function and three additional functions, which basically matches the workload of a version.
The key is to this core function. Liu Yu’s new feature is the name of the function: Battle of the Star Sea (Star Sea Battlefield)!
Everyone else obviously saw this, Xiong Kai and Zhou Zhen looked at each other, Zhou Zhen was confused and Xiong Kai was disdainful.
Liu Yuxin's eyes were mostly confused, so he carefully looked at the planning details after the project.
"Make a galaxy as a cross-server battlefield for players to engage in gvg battles."
"Players engage in large-scale battles based on guilds to inspire players' enthusiasm and collective honor."
"The player's combat power is converted into combat power in the battlefield according to certain rules. Killing enemies, winning battles, etc. can all be rewarded in exchange for rewards."
"Develop three additional features around this core function..."
Liu Yuxin quickly understood that this is not a new feature, it is simply a new game!
In the previous "Mecha Era", the core gameplay was PVE combat, which means that players challenge different levels by forming mecha troops and obtain rewards. There are some relatively simple PVP activities, such as arenas, but they are all fake battles that are made after grabbing player data, and they will not really allow players to fight in real time.
Why?
Because this is a game on the bracelet! Everyone plays it in their spare time, so there is no need to do it so complicatedly.
But when you look at Zhong Ming’s new version planning, this core function is simply a matter of not only real-time battles between players, but also not just one person, but a group of people!
Replanning a galaxy, everyone can control their mechas to fight against others. The winner will occupy the planet and get rewards. It sounds quite exciting, but... is this still the game?
Moreover, it is hard to imagine how a bracelet game is made like what Zhong Ming said!
As for the other three functions, they are all derivative functions. For example, if you want to "fight against the Star Sea", that is, the core function of the Star Sea Battlefield, you must have a special reward? Players must have a specific country identity, right? These three functions are all done to make the Star Sea Battlefield perfectly connect with the current "Mecha Era".
As for other things, art resource requirements, etc., they all revolve around the function of Star Sea Battlefield.
To put it bluntly, the entire new version has one function, which is this Star Sea Battlefield!
If this function is rejected, there is no need to watch the other three derivative functions, and they will definitely be cut off together.
Liu Yuxin frowned, which surprised him a little. He really didn't expect that Zhong Ming had planned such a big function with such a courageous goal!
However, this function is just for this few people now. Can it be done? There are only four people left in the art group...
So Liu Yuxin didn't say anything.
The others also looked at each other, and Liu Yuxin didn't say anything. Who dares to say whether this function is OK or not?
Xiong Kai felt that this was not good.
Judging from Manager Liu's expression, is he really thinking about it?
I have to think of a solution immediately.
Xiong Kai’s current position is a world architect, and he has done the previous new version planning. If Manager Liu adopts Zhong Ming’s new version planning, what would be great?
Zhou Zhen is the main designer, and his position is stable and cannot be shaken, but Xiong Kai's position is a bit dangerous.
The new version is planned by Zhong Ming. If Manager Liu nodded, will the design documents of this core function also have to be written by Zhong Ming? When the new version is developed, will the various functions also have to be promoted and planned in a coordinated manner? In the end, the new version will be launched. If it fails, it will be fine. If it is done, will the credit be calculated on Zhong Ming's head?
Of course it doesn’t matter if Zhou Zhen is the main designer, but isn’t Xiong Kai the world architect very likely to become a move for Zhong Ming?
Therefore, Xiong Kai must prove that there is something wrong with the planning of this new version, either directly rejecting the plan, or making Manager Liu feel that Zhong Ming has good ideas and lacks ability, and then cut off most of the entire new version and hand it over to others to promote it.
Zhou Zhen couldn't speak first. He looked at Manager Liu and had no intention of speaking, so he looked at Xiong Kai: "Do you think about it first?"
Xiong Kai was just asking for something, so he hurriedly continued: "Okay, then I'll tell you my own opinion."
"I think Zhong Ming is just starting out in the industry and doesn't understand many things so thoroughly. It's not his fault. The idea of this function is quite good, but the only problem is... the workload is too high? This is equivalent to developing a new galaxy and a new universe from scratch! For those of us projects, how long does it take to develop this function? Half a year? One year? Maybe you have to work overtime!"
"And the key is that we have never done this kind of thing before, and we have no experience at all! Who knows if there will be any pitfalls during the development process?"
"So the idea is good, but... it's not a problem! Moreover, whether the input and output are proportional to it, who can guarantee this?"
After Xiong Kai finished speaking, he glanced at Liu Yuxin secretly and found that Manager Liu's head was slightly lit.
Zhou Zhen also nodded: "I have the same view. This new function will have a lot of workload once you hear it..."
Zhou Zhen looked at Liu Yuxin, and Liu Yuxin finally spoke: "Indeed, just like Xiong Kai said, it is not easy to solve the urgent problem. Moreover, the investment is too large, and it is really hard to say how much output can be. Our project may not be able to afford this risk."
Seeing Liu Yuxin’s words, Xiong Kai felt much more at ease.
After Manager Liu said this, Zhong Ming probably wanted to give up. However, what surprised Xiong Kai was that this kid could actually come up with a decent new version plan in such a short time, and he really had a set.
Xiong Kai secretly thanked that he was better at his skills and discovered the defects of this function, otherwise he would have failed today.
Manager Liu sighed with regret: "What a pity, the idea is good, but our project is not available. Let's continue to hold the meeting."
As a result, what everyone did not expect was that Zhong Ming actually spoke.
Chapter completed!
