Super Game Empire

Gibson Venture Capital Center challenged Longteng, and Larson used sport to ski in the Alps as a bet, making "Minecraft", which is in the internal testing period, become popular and enter the sight of professional players.;

Professional players use their relationships to seek test programs and test serial numbers. Many people return empty-handed, but their interest is even stronger because they learn from certain channels that the game "Minecraft" is running.

The required computer standard configuration is surprisingly high!

In 2006, the mainstream computer hardware should be able to run World of Warcraft smoothly, with 512 memory, CPUs above 2.0ghz, and discrete graphics cards above 64m. This is the basic three major items.

The minimum running configuration recommended by Minecraft is 1g memory, 2.4ghz CPU, 128m video memory independent graphics card, and it is best to use a Mac computer operating system. If you use Windows operating system, you can choose XP, but you cannot use Windows 2003.

It is also best not to use vista, because a computer host with a vista operating system requires 2g of memory to run smoothly.

"Ahh! In order to play this game, would you want me to buy a Mac computer?"

"Why do you need to install the basic components and ja|va virtual machines of Sun Company when running this game?"

"There are really many restrictions on the game running. The internal beta version requires such high requirements. I don't know what the requirements will be for the official launch. I'm really looking forward to it!"

"Touch D. See Touch D editor again! Will Longteng's stand-alone game add Touch D editor for every single player game? Will this be the standard configuration for future stand-alone games?"

Many players who plan to participate in the internal test leave messages on Longteng's official website, some jokes, and some complain because they have not been publicly launched. Therefore, the official website forum has not opened a formal "Minecraft" forum area, and many people are in the complaint area and comments

The district made an opinion, but was soon drowned in the chat and speeches of various countries.

Of course, no one in this world except Yang Yun knew what was wrong with Long Teng's setting. When he saw this "Minecraft" that had been castrated many times, he could only sigh deeply.

At most 1g memory, you can only play a creative mode, and it is the simplest free version.

"It seems that I still can't change the big history of the development of computer technology! ja|va5's virtual machine environment, 1g of memory. My God, I'm speechless when I see this simple mosaic. When will 2g be popularized?

Then consider the full version after memory and ja|va6!"

Yang Yun sighed in his heart, but he still patted Xiao Qing on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Good job! I've taken out the internal beta version in two years. You didn't embarrass Long Teng!"

Xiao Qing and his team spent nearly two years in North America and finally came up with a beta test version, which was recognized by Yang Yun. This result made everyone feel relieved.

With the technicians of Sun Company under Yang Yun's inspection, ja|va virtual machine technology is not only the biggest reliance of Sun Fire Rebirth, but also the future IT technology that is most valued by its partner Longteng Entertainment Games Company.

Longteng has cooperated deeply with Sun, and Sun has accepted Longteng's investment. He has become a powerful general under Longteng's software department, with the goal directly aimed at Microsoft. They will attack Microsoft's dominance in the Windows operating system for the second time.

"Show me the charging items for the creation model!" Yang Yun asked.

Xiao Qing adjusted the settings on the test bench. All paid props were unlocked, with different blocks, animals, monsters, equipment and other items. These were all small ca colors, which were nothing more than allowing players to create more buildings and block them.

Monster invasion and so on.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Yang, due to technical issues, it may take us three months to release the official version, and there is only one creative mode that can load the Touch D, but the survival mode cannot be opened for the time being."

"It doesn't matter. You can just create a creative mode by the end of 2006. We will let Touch D first, and the survival mode will be born in 2007, and other functions will be unlocked one after another."

Yang Yun felt that it was enough, what else could he ask for? The hardware cannot meet the standards, and the software ja|va virtual machine will take a year or two to upgrade to ja|va6. He will burn the fragrance when he can play in 2007.

, there are still ** months left!

Xiao Qing and his team will definitely continue to stay in the United States. Originally, Yang Yun planned to relocate Sun's R&D team to Shangshanghai, but considering that the R&D environment in Silicon Valley is indeed better than that in Shangshanghai, he finally gave up the relocation.

Thoughts, continue to keep sun developing.

Technical research is a boring thing. Programmers work every day to type code on the development platform. They may not know whether the game is fun or not. This is the depression of creators. If they don’t make finished products, they won’t really transform into a pure

It is difficult for users of products to experience the happiness.

It’s like the actors’ feeling when they are making movies is different from watching the final full-edited version of the movie. The writers’ mood when they are thinking about creating novels is also different from the feeling when they see the final published novels.

Yang Yun came to the United States this time, in addition to checking the development progress of "Minecraft", he also wanted to take a look at the operation of "World of Warcraft".

Since the launch of the BWL Black Wings Nest version, the number of registered players in World of Warcraft has hit a new high, with the number of people online at the world reaching 9.55 million. This data has increased by nearly three times compared with the 3.4 million people online at the same time half a year ago.

, Maybe it may exceed 10 million during the May Day Labor Day in 2006.

This game has been profitable for a long time, with a monthly turnover of more than US$200 million, making money at a speed of no less than a money printing machine. Longteng has really hit the limit of the theme of Warcraft and has been constantly launching games with Warcraft themes.

The players kept making money, but they all bought it, which made other game companies jealous.

"Do you usually play World of Warcraft?" After processing the "Minecraft" project, Yang Yun invited everyone to have afternoon tea. He held the coffee in his mouth and asked the programmers of Sun Company.

They were a little shy and shy for a long time before answering: "You can play for about four hours a day, and the weekends will take a little longer."

In North America, because of the perfect labor laws, workers have to pay high overtime pay for overtime, and few employees work overtime voluntarily, so companies usually get off work on time, and most employees leave at the right time.

Yang Yun nodded. The 4-hour game time per day is about $0.125 per hour, and the monthly fee of $15 per month is really a small expense for European and American players.

Sun's most ordinary and lowest-level programmers also have an annual salary of $60,000, and their hourly salary before deducting taxes is $28. This is not the highest in Silicon Valley, and it can only be said to be average.

The overtime pay after working hours per week is 1.5 times the hourly salary, so European and American companies never encourage employees to work overtime. Employees are more willing to go home to party or rest on time every day. The monthly card of $15 is really a rainy day for them.

It's right!

Yang Yun thought for a while and asked, "Why would anyone take me to experience it and see how ordinary Americans play games?"

After he said this, everyone expressed their interest, and even Xiao Qing and the others were excited.

"No way, Mr. Yang, do you billionaires like you also play games every day? You can form teams on time every day, gather DKP, kill teams every day, and run corpses. Can you bear this crime?"

"Mr. Yang, we have been working here for almost two years. Their foreigners always say that we Chinese are fools, they only know how to work hard and do not understand life. They live their lives after get off work on time every day, and we Chinese can only live in Playing poker in a townhouse is really not as interesting as working overtime! If it weren’t for the support of the game, we really didn’t know how to pass the time!”

"That's right, more than a dozen Chinese people here, Sun has only prepared three sets of townhouse colors for us. Everyone lives together. Men go to work every day, and women play mahjong at home every day to chat and do housework. Very few of them are

When going out for activities, it is impossible to integrate into the local white world, which is so boring!”

"Fortunately, World of Warcraft has come out, and we have adjusted our mood. We get together to play games every day when we get home. Otherwise, we really don't know how to live this day. It's too boring in the United States!"

Everyone is complaining that this is quite in line with the image of a Chinese otakus who works in the United States. Everyone lives in shared houses, and the neighbors around are all foreigners. Everyone has different living and eating habits and cultural beliefs.

Most Chinese companies are generally difficult to integrate into the local society when they are sent to the United States. Many Chinese people are bored and will focus on other new Chinese people, living together, and having sex overnight.

There are too many situations in this way.

"What a good mountain and water is so boring!" Yang Yun smiled, "Although I do have a little money, money is not omnipotent. Many times, spiritual enjoyment is not something that money can buy. Besides, after get off work, we will go together. It’s good to play games, pass the time, and promote harmony between husband and wife. Every day, everyone will go offline together, and do what they should do!"

"Hahahaha..." Everyone laughed meaningfully.

"Mr. Yang, I wonder if I can invite you to sit in our 'Chinatown'? Let's have a meal, play games, etc.?" Xiao Qing boldly sent an invitation.

Yang Yun had nothing big to do at night, so he simply agreed: "Okay, I'll take a look at the game life of American players in the evening!" (To be continued...)
