Rebirth 86: I use games to kick open the door to the world

After all, NGS is just a commercial company from Japan.

They can only know that the development team of the real game has gone to the Chinese army.

They don't dare to easily provoke a country's team, they are looking for death.

They just want to make money.

Then all they can do is analyze.

Real games have been released to the army. If you make a simple guess, their next game is likely to be military-related.

So are there any real games like military games to be launched?

Could it be the second part of Thunder Fighter?

Thunder Fighter is full of various types of fighter jets, which are also related to war, and they are also in the modern war style. In order to pursue reality, it is very likely that the real game team will go to the army to learn from the experience!

Thunderbolt Fighter is now popular all over the world and has become one of Sega's best-selling games. Players will definitely be happy to pursue the victory and develop a new sequel.

No, we absolutely cannot fall behind.

You must launch a similar competing product to compete.

They were already one step behind the previous Thunder Fighters, so they must keep up next.

So after the analysis, NGS's internal executives immediately ordered the development of a work similar to the Thunder Fighter.

NGS can give more funding tilt.

However, this caused dissatisfaction with Akira Nakamura, and now several development teams under Akira Nakamura have development projects.

Super Mario World Part 2 is being developed for the new NGS 16-bit console, as well as a Super Mario racing game, and a Tetris-like Super Mario spin-off that's about to be launched on the handheld console.

In addition, there is a new Legend of Zelda, and Metroid's work is also on the agenda.

NGS' game development projects are already fully scheduled, and having to temporarily arrange a new game project will drive employees crazy.

They are already working almost day and night just to make these games now, and the people under Akira Nakamura have long been dissatisfied.

Akira Nakamura argued that such blind pursuit was meaningless. NGS should follow its own path and not be led by its competitors.

President Yamauchi quite appreciates Nakamura Akira's views.

But today is different from the past. Real games have been successful too many times. If this continues, the status of NGS will be in jeopardy.

Since the employees are already overwhelmed, other game development projects will be temporarily suspended to make way for the Thunderbolt Fighter-type barrage shooting game.

It’s not that the suspended game is no longer being developed, it’s just that it’s paused for a while, and you can go back and continue working on the previous project after Thunder Fighter is finished.

The senior management is also easy to talk to and discuss with Akira Nakamura. Now that Akira Nakamura is also a member of the senior management, he needs to be given some face.

But if Nakamura Akira continues to insist, it means that he does not know how to praise, and it is hard to say what the consequences will be.

This is tantamount to making concessions on both sides, and you should listen to what your boss says.

Akira Nakamura could only sigh helplessly and agreed to the suggestions of other senior executives.

But when it came to choosing which game project to suspend, Akira Nakamura had another problem.

Each game was roughly planned at the time. The developers found these to be very interesting, and every game type was covered, so they wouldn’t miss any of them.

In the end, the decision is made by the top management.

Mario Kart and new Metroid have been put on hold.

Metroid has not had very explosive results so far, and if it continues to be developed, it may not have much sales, so we will pause for a while and wait until later.

There is also Mario Kart. This is a brand new attempt. It does not follow a realistic racing gameplay, but a more cartoon-style racing gameplay. This new development direction is not necessarily reliable, such as the barrage shooting of Thunderbolt Fighter. Let’s talk about it after the game is developed.

The two games were suspended, and the development team was allocated to fully develop the competing game of Thunder Fighter.

While NGS was undergoing emergency adjustments, Zuo Zhenyi and others were still seriously considering various weapons and equipment.

"This is a 152mm howitzer. It was designed by Maozi in the early days. Later we improved it. It has a range of 15 kilometers and a weight of about 40 kilograms. Usually we add some additional range extension measures to these shells, which can make The range has been increased to over 40 kilometers, and this thing is very powerful at destroying enemy vehicles.”

"This big guy is the Hongjian No. 8. It is an anti-tank missile that can drive the enemy back to the west with one shot. It can penetrate 800 mm of armor, or even 1,000 mm."

…

In front of Zuo Zhen and others, an equipment maintenance engineer carefully introduced them to some details of the shells in front of them.

These are already public things, but it's just not easy to check now.

As he introduced them, the equipment repairman gently stroked the shells, as if he were a lover, with soft eyes.

Usually their greatest pleasure is watching these big guys, any one of them can cause very violent damage, which is really attractive.

Zuo Zhen's male employees also took notes seriously.

This is knowledge that is difficult to find outside. You will have the capital to brag to others when you go out in the future.

Of course, more importantly, these will benefit future game development.

Because the technology of flash memory is advancing by leaps and bounds, Zuo Zhen has decided to add more content to the game. First, start with the most basic equipment such as cannonballs in the game, and bring the parameter data as close as possible to reality, so that players can really have a An immersive feeling.

Moreover, Zuo Zhen will not just add a lot of boring data. Doing so will only make the game boring. While increasing the sense of realism, he also needs to increase the expressiveness of the screen. However, these are things for later. Let’s focus on what is in front of us first. Please remember the various parameter data clearly.

And these big boys also had eager eyes, wishing they could go up and touch these cannonballs.

But these will have to wait until the end of the lecture.

At this time, Zuo Zhen raised his hand and said, "Maintenance engineer teacher, I have a question I would like to ask."

"you say."

"Um, do we have Dongfeng? Even if it's the first-generation model."

When it comes to the most famous weapons and equipment in later generations, the missiles that netizens jokingly call "Dongfeng Express's mission must be fulfilled" must be number one.

But Zuo Zhen didn't see it here.

But it’s normal to think about it.

This thing has gone beyond the scope of ordinary weapons. It is an important weapon of the country. It is difficult to show it to ordinary people easily.

The maintenance man's bright light flashed, and then he smiled: "I didn't expect that you, a little comrade, are quite ambitious. You also want to see Dongfeng, but I'm sorry, there shouldn't be anything I can do about it. After all, that thing is too big."

Zuo Zhen was not surprised, but he still wanted to ask.

Zuo Zhen actually didn't have much emotional fluctuations in these ordinary weapons and equipment. In his previous life in the 21st century, he had seen countless of these things on the Internet, and he could understand them even if he had never seen them in real form.

But Dongfeng Express is a big thing that people really want to see.

It’s just that it’s really not easy to see the real thing.

Unless we wait for a large-scale National Day military parade or something like that, we might be able to see it from a long distance away.

"But, you can't really see it, but the model is still there. Just wait, I'll pull it over for you."

pull over?

Zuo Zhenyi raised his eyebrows. (End of chapter)
