Start a company to make games

Chapter 104 What do you want players to do!
Everyone in the mad dog state quickly rushed the progress of the game to 50%.

In less than 30 days, the game progress meter has soared to 50%, this work efficiency is even afraid of Liu Xiong himself!
Fortunately, with the end of the explosive state, Feimeng, who had been mad for 30 days, finally fell into the exhaustion period in the middle of game development.

One after another, everyone became passive and sabotage.

Tired, lazy, dozing off, asking for leave...

Liu Xiong didn't care too much, and showed his true qualities as a top boss with a degree of relaxation.

……

When the game development reached 50%, Liu Xiong tested the AI ​​system of the game. This is the content that novice Fangfang is responsible for, and it is also a difficult point of the game, so Liu Xiong pays special attention to it.

Although still in the rough prototype stage, Liu Xiong found some problems.

Left [-] Dead, as a four-player cooperative survival game, has very high requirements for AI.

Liu Xiong started the trial play, but did not enable teammates, but chose the single invincible mode - that is, immortal, and can be revived after being knocked down.

For zombies, those special zombies need a certain amount of AI in order to make the best use of their special AI advantages.

For example, a special monster in Left [-] Dead - Boomer, also known as the Vomiter.

Boomers are a special type of Infected, characterized by a fat body, pustules, and a grunting cry.

Boomers can spit liquids.

Or after Boomer is killed, the body will explode, producing the same disgusting liquid.

And this disgusting unknown sticky substance is simply zombie happy water to ordinary zombies.

As long as the players are affected by the explosion of Boomer's corpse, and their bodies are stained with unidentified goo, countless zombies will soon hear the news.

But monsters like Boomer are very crispy, and their movement speed is average.

If they crawled slowly towards the survivors like ordinary zombies, they would definitely be killed directly from a distance.

In order for Boomer's attack to really have an effect, the Boomer's attack method must have a certain amount of intelligence.

You can't just go straight ahead, but it's best to create an effect of meeting love at a corner - at the corner, behind the door, on the ceiling, etc., directly facing the faces of the survivors!
Only in this way, Boomer can give full play to his advantages, and explode after getting close, attracting a massive wave of corpses.

And the players also have a way to crack it.

First, Boomer will make a grunt call, as long as you hear this sound, you must be vigilant.

Second, don't rush to shoot even if you get hit in the face by a Boomer.

Use melee combat first, push the Boomer away, and then kill him after opening the distance, so that's OK.

Generally speaking, the battle between Left [-] Dead players and Boomers looks like this.

However, the program made by Fangfang has some problems in terms of AI intelligence.

When Liu Xiong tried to play the 50% basic version, he found that Boomer's IQ was too high!

Boomers know how to hide near sources of noise to mask their own voice.

Boomer also knows how to attack from the rear when charging, and take advantage of Liu Xiong's unpreparedness to descend from the sky!

Boomer also knows how to block vision, dodge when Liu Xiong is strong, and take advantage of Liu Xiong's weakness—for example, when he is dealing with other special infected people, and then take advantage of the opportunity to dispatch.

Such a Boomer is obviously beyond the class.

Liu Xiong's request is that the blame should not be too stupid, so as not to affect the game effect.

But such a clever monster is simply impossible for Liu Xiong to guard against!

Compared with the Boomer in the flying dream version of "Left [-] Dead", Boomer in the original Left [-] Dead on Earth is simply a younger brother!

……

This is not all!

After Liu Xiong was tortured into a dog by various highly intelligent zombies, Liu Xiong started the teammate program and formed a team of four to play normal games.

The addition of three AI teammates instantly reversed the situation.

No, not just a simple turnaround.

Where are the zombies chasing people?

This is a mad dog-like AI, chasing and killing zombies for fun!
The position is hot, the consciousness is fluttering, the marksmanship is like a god, and the coordination is invincible!
The three AI teammates have the strength of Rambo, and all kinds of cooperation make the zombies unable to pose any threat to Liu Xiong.

Liu Xiong didn't even need to fire a gun, he just followed his teammates and called 666.

With such an AI, why do players need it!
The AI ​​of the game designed by Fang Fang is too strong and must be weakened, otherwise it will not be the player playing the game, but the player watching the AI ​​playing the game.

There is another problem that Liu Xiong is more worried about.

Maybe it's because this is Feimeng's first large-scale 3D game, which is relatively difficult.

Perhaps it is because Fangfang and Xiaolin are too young.

Judging from the current 50% progress, the game's loopholes have reached a very high level.

It actually has a vulnerability attribute of 118 points!
Although the current game is only a prototype, so many loopholes are still not good news.

So Liu Xiong specially told everyone: "There is no need to pursue speed too much. Our game has no time limit. Take your time and make the game well, with less loopholes and more sincerity."

"Fangfang, you are a girl, you should be more careful."

"From now on, you suspend the development of new content, re-examine our game program from the beginning, and make up for the loopholes in the game."

Fangfang nodded positively in response, "Understood!"

……

As the game development progress reached 50%, Liu Xiong also logged into his Weibo and posted the first Weibo for Feimeng's new game.

"Left 4 Dead!"

A text of the English name of Left [-] Dead, and a promotional poster.

Above the poster are the four protagonists of Left [-] Dead.

Bill was holding a submachine gun, and the searchlight that came with the gun was facing forward.

Francis, with tattoos all over his arm, was shooting with a shotgun in his hand.

Louis held a chainsaw and looked fierce.

And Zoe aimed the pistol in the direction of Bill's searchlight.

The four protagonists have stains and blood on their bodies, and the background is also a burning city.

This poster revealed a lot of information, and it also aroused various speculations from fans.

"Haha! The new Feimeng game is out! I'm the sofa!"

"I'm not interested in the previous Legend of Blood. Online games are boring. I hope this time it's a stand-alone game!"

"Is it a shooter? The poster looks great!"

"It feels like a war theme, but why are the protagonists all ordinary people?"

"Ordinary people's war? It feels like the theme of the end of the world!"

"possible."

"Have you heard? Feimeng has obtained the development qualification of the PZ platform."

"Really? That's great! This time, Feimeng should be making a first-line masterpiece, looking forward to it!"

The news on the Internet spread faster and faster, and soon the major game media websites followed suit.

Lundao Xingkong even directly opened up a special area for the new game "Left 4 Dead". Although Liu Xiong only released one poster for the time being, according to the past practice, this poster must represent the new game.

Open a special area first, no problem!
