"What about "Cyber ​​Changan 2077"? Don't you plan to take care of it anymore?"

Lin You was stunned on the spot when he heard Qin Songyun and Fan Rui's thoughts.

The two shook their heads.

"How come? The main focus will still be on "Chang'an"."

"Yes, it will definitely not affect the development of "Chang'an"."

A confused look appeared on Lin You's face: "Is the workload of "Cyber ​​Chang'an"... so unsaturated?"

"Ah?" Qin Songyun was stunned for a moment.

"No, no..." Fan Rui quickly waved his hand to deny it.

"Haha." Lin You looked at the two people's hasty denials. After laughing a few times, he stopped teasing them.

"While working on "Cyber ​​Chang'an", start a new project?"

"Does your wife have any objections?" Lin You looked at Qin Songyun.

"Does your girlfriend have any objections?" Lin You looked at Fan Rui again.

Qin Songyun first shook his head and complained: "She has more liver than me."

Then he said seriously: "As "Chang'an" is completed chapter by chapter, the team is getting bigger and bigger. After reorganizing with the science fiction game department, the manpower is not only completely sufficient, but even a bit surplus."

"We are fully capable of forming another project team without affecting the current project."

"Then what do you want to do?" Lin You asked curiously.

Qin Songyun and Fan Rui looked at each other and replied in unison:

""Fire 4"!"

Lin You blinked and suddenly thought that the two people in front of him were the orthodox creators of the "Fire" series, one of the most successful series in the VR game era.

Qin Songyun, in particular, is truly the "Father of Fiery Flames".

As for the copyright of the "Fire" series, after NetDragon went bankrupt and liquidated, Lin You entrusted Lu Wei to help and bought it at a very low price.

However, Yunmeng has been developing its own games since then, and this IP has been sealed in the IP library.

Now they want to take the opportunity to develop a new game in the "Fire" series to wash away the original stigma of "Fire 3", which is also reasonable.

Moreover, the core developers of the original "Flame Team" were really all in Yunmeng, and they were even the early backbone of Yunmeng.

The father of Lieyan, Lieyan IP, plus the original team of Lieyan!

If this game is ever made, the bloodline will definitely be extremely pure!

It really fulfills the phrase "The Flame Orthodoxy lies with Yunmeng" that players complained about when NetDragon and Yunmeng were in conflict.

I don’t know how Zhao Yucheng, who used a sewing machine in prison, would react to this news.

It’s fun to think about.

And a fun-loving person like Lin You would obviously not miss such a fun thing.

He agreed immediately.

But the requirement is: "It cannot affect the development of "Cyber ​​Chang'an"."

"No problem." Qin Songyun agreed.

Fan Rui even assured: "Let's start with a small team to do the preliminary work. We are just pointing out the direction and creativity, and then we will actually join the team after "2077" is officially released."

After receiving the "surprise" from Qin Songyun and Fan Rui, the three of them went to the development world of "Cyber ​​Chang'an" to do what Lin You originally planned to do -

Check the development progress of Cyber ​​Changan 2077.

Compared to the way it was built entirely by the [Science Fiction Game Department], the appearance of this city has changed dramatically.

The previous city was a fairly standard "cyberpunk" city.

It is filled with cold gray-black buildings, gaudy neon lights and holographic projections. The streets are full of armed robots cruising around. At night, the entire city is filled with water mist that comes from nowhere, and there is dirty water on the ground. , reflecting the same dirty cables and light-polluted sky.

But now, the joining of the "Chang'an" team has immediately changed the entire city.

Between the cold high-rise buildings, there are whole-floor hollows, dotted with elegant and exquisite gardens. The top floors are often Chinese-style buildings like halls, with double-eaves roof structures that are gorgeous and majestic.

Surrounded by high-rise buildings, temples and Taoist temples are dotted among them, with roofs made of golden tiles, robot monks in yellow robes, and green smoke rising from the incense burner...

Leaving the main road, there are typical Tang-style buildings hung with red lanterns and cornices. However, the signboards are also hung with neon tubes filled with pyrotechnics. Cats and dogs are walking and jumping among the crowd...

The "Chang'an" team has greatly enriched the architectural types of this future city, turning it from a common "sci-fi future city" to a brand-new "Chinese punk fantasy".

Because of previous research and practice on ancient architecture, the "Chang'an" team has accumulated considerable aesthetic and technical capabilities.

Urban space becomes more layered, more stylistic and continuous.

——Of course, if players look at it, the most intuitive feeling is that the impression of the city has changed from "crowded" to "bustling".

The negative atmosphere of "cyber future" has inevitably been weakened to a certain extent.

But it seems inevitable.

In the traditional culture of Daxia, "many people" has always been connected with words such as "lively", "celebration" and "lifelike".

In order to neutralize the dissonance between the architectural sense and the plot content, the development team first increased the influence of the "weather" system.

——When the story is dark, the weather is always gloomy. The light is dim, the climate is humid, and it rains from time to time. Even the NPC is in a bad mood.

When the plot turns brighter, the weather clears up, and every detail in the city turns positive.

Not only that, they also introduced a new branch topic——

The opposition between [tradition] and [modernity], or the opposition between [tradition] and [the future].

In this way, some "completely un-Chinese" urban areas can be built openly to facilitate the development of the plot.

This is a very good idea for both urban design and gameplay design.

The only ones who feel a little unhappy about this are the plot planners...

Because this requires them to design more and more elaborate side stories, which forces them to lose their hair like crazy.

"Very good." Lin You nodded, fully recognizing the development team's work in city construction, "What about the combat system?"

He knew that "Cyber ​​Chang'an" took a dual route in the combat system, but he didn't know the specific progress.

"Come this way."

This time it was Fan Rui who led the way.

He took Lin You to a basement the size of a football field to show him the player-strengthening routes for the new game.

The first thing to be introduced is the "Prosthetic Body Transformation" gameplay.

This set of gameplay has been initially tested in the [Forgotten Cemetery] of "Pacific Rim", and many players' opinions have been collected.

Now, they have greatly enriched and strengthened this gameplay, not only providing clearer prosthetic levels and attributes, but also designing card-type auxiliary plug-ins in different categories to provide players with various auxiliary abilities.

Most of the equipment in the basement are various types of prosthetic limbs, some of which look like humans, and some of which are simply alien prostheses that imitate various wild animals.

After spending a lot of time showing off these prosthetics, Fan Rui showed Lin You a row of injections of different colors.

"This is another enhancement route developed following the martial arts gameplay of the "Chang'an" series: [Gene Enhancement Potion]."

"It can not only strengthen the player's physical fitness, but also give the player some [biological characteristics] special abilities, such as [Eagle Eyes], [Frog Legs], [Chameleon], [Broken Arm Rebirth], etc..."

"These genetic potions also have levels. The higher the level, the stronger the effect, and the higher the physical tolerance requirements for players."

“[Genetic ability slots] will also be unlocked as the player’s level increases.”

"At the same time, these two routes can freely use technological weapons."

Lin You keenly grasped the key point: "One strength and one agility, two strengthening routes, right?"

Fan Rui opened his mouth, intending to retort, but after opening and closing his mouth several times, he could only nod helplessly and said: "Although there are many customized gameplays, if you have to talk about the essence, they are indeed similar..."

Lin You can completely understand.

Although his summary is a bit casual, it is true that these two strengthening routes have very rich gameplay.

Whether it is changing prosthetics and auxiliary plug-ins, or choosing different genetic enhancement potions, players can customize their character's abilities, construct their own unique Build, and experience a completely different fighting pleasure.

"Power" can be expanded to play methods such as "human shield", "heavy artillery", "power attack", "explosion", and even special play methods such as "blood exchange flow" and "self-destruct flow".

"Agility" can also be expanded into "assassination", "sniper", "kite", "bloodletting" and other gameplay methods. It is also completely possible to build a "trait system" based on special abilities.

Coupled with the use of thermal weapons, the depth of gameplay can fully support a game.

But Lin You was still not satisfied.

These two gameplays, whether it is a major upgrade to the prosthetic gameplay or the "superpower" innovation of the martial arts gameplay, are both good and good, but they lack a bit of "orthodoxy".

It doesn't have the kind of impact that makes people feel "very futuristic" and "very technological" at first glance, and at the same time makes people feel "very strong" and "very fierce".

And it is not friendly enough to players who believe in conservative "pure-blooded humans".

so--

After thinking about it, he decided to give his lovely employees a "love education"!
