Chapter 182: Chapter 178: Using a Sledgehammer to Crack a Nut (Part 2)

The implication behind Yuri Johnsons words was obviously to ask Finn Lewis if he wanted his identity as a Top Three player revealed. Lewis grinned in response, Sure, absolutely make it public. Thats exactly the effect Im after, just dont disclose any of my photos and the like.
Also, regarding the company, even though I now have complete control, it should continue to operate as it is. Dont change anything, I simply dont have the time to manage it, Mr. Johnson, from now on, youre going to be the one in charge. Lewis said with a smile.
Johnson wasnt surprised, and readily nodded his agreement. If he were asked to resign now, he would indeed find it disconcerting.
However, about the game engine, the development team suggests that we should develop a new game altogether. It would be a waste upgrading Top Three directly. Johnson interjected thoughtfully.
This would maximize the use of the gaming engine, If you think the systems in place are good, we can simply rename them. Johnson promptly added.
Lewis pondered for a moment. Johnson and the development teams consideration was to maximize the technology. Top Three, which was initially called World, later dubbed World Two, now Top Three, could logically claim a history of six or seven years. It had virtually reached the end of its lifecycle.
Immediate upgrades wouldnt provide much room for significant profits.
Lets move towards upgrading World directly. Well, lets bring in the former clan or sects settings into the new World , then integrate them into the new game. I have a proposal here for some creative concepts for after the upgrade, take a look. Lewis decided to hand over the document that Olivia Thatcher had drawn up to Johnson.
Johnson immediately started scanning it. Whether a game has longevity or not, undoubtedly, Johnson had a say. However, after reading through the proposal, he couldnt help but let out a bitter laugh and looked up at Lewis, Okay, Director Lewis, Ill concede. This proposal is indeed excellent. The combination with our game engine will absolutely be its selling point. But Director Lewis, dont forget. The most important aspect of a game isnt just this, but also another, often overlooked factor, the balance!
The sudden influx of so many elements, its simply impossible to guarantee the balance. Johnson shook his head. Wait, did you say balance? Lewis was momentarily stunned, a light instantly illuminated his eyes.
Right, balance. Surely, Director Lewis, you havent forgotten this? For instance, the interplay between the eight major sects, the balance of their skills, the balance between professions and instance dungeon monsters, as well as with wild monsters. Not only does the balance between these sects need to be considered, but also their stacking effects. Moreover, during large scale faction battles, the balance of skills needs to be taken into account. All these must be considered. Johnson looked at him, confused as to why Lewis was having such a strong reaction.
Mr. Johnson, if you could wait for a moment, I need to make a phone call. Lewis got up and started to head out of the room. Johnson was taken aback but chose to wait, as he didnt know what Lewis had in mind.
Once outside the door, Lewis went to an uninhabited area and immediately contacted Olivia Thatcher on his cell phone. When Johnson mentioned the balance, Lewis was reminded that after hed last completed a task, among the rewards were something called a Dynamic Balance Data Calculation System. At first glance, it seemed like it could be useful in achieving the balance in the game?
Updted on BX0VEL.cmSir. Olivia Thatchers voice came through the phone.
What was the Dynamic Balance Data Calculation System from the last task reward used for? Lewis had wanted to ask Zero at the time, but because of a
remarkably high demand rare item, he didnt feel like asking. As a result, he was still not clear about what this system could be used for.
It is used to calculate some data balance. This system is very good, especially when it is used to build things like a habitable large-scale space station. It can calculate the light, gravity, humidity, temperature, oxygen supply, material supply, etc., inside the entire space station. When we build a spaceship, we can use this system to model and calculate things such as artificial gravity usage, engine fluctuation frequency for a large-scale spaceship, and space warships. This system is going to be very useful to us in the future. Olivia Thatcher immediately explained the applications of this system to Lewis. Well Lewis choked, then he asked, This thing, it can be reused, right?
Yes, this kind of system is a collection system, similar to software. But its very high end, I cant create it myself. Olivia said.
Then can it be used to calculate data balance within a game? Lewis asked the question he was most interested in.
Sir, what did you say? Olivia asked back.
Im asking if this can be used to calculate data balance within a network game. It should be able to, right? Lewis tentatively asked.
Sir! Olivia scoffed, Youre using a butchers knife to kill a chicken! Cant believe youre using this system to calculate such simple data! But yes, it can be used, and it will be absolute balance!
Good, good! Lewis couldnt help but let out a laugh, With such a powerful software, my game will be invincible. At that time, points will come pouring in, right? However, is it a little difficult for a game to earn 80 billion federal coins? Well, the current market value of WY is 144 billion federal coins, so if I enter and cause an increase in WYs stock, will this cost be deducted in the end? Lewis suddenly thought of a key issue.
Lets not think about these things for the time being, lets just develop the game now. Regardless of whether it can earn 80 billion federal coins, there is no doubt that this game is sure to captivate the world! Lewis was in the mood to laugh out loud. This was the pace of Blizzard!
If it can be sold worldwide, it doesnt seem difficult to earn 80 billion federal coins, just look at Monster World. From its beta testing in 2005, Monster World has been operating until now, and its annual sales are at least 15 billion federal coins. Now that it has been close to 10 years, it has long exceeded the profit of 80 billion federal coins..
