Chapter 1652: Little Soldier Legend Computer

After listening to Lin Feng's words, Cohen was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

One-fifth of the world's population plays World War. Well, if there are currently 6 billion people in the world, wouldn't there be one-fifth of 1.2 billion people playing it? Thinking of this number, Cohen felt dizzy. However, he also knew in his heart that Lin Feng was not talking nonsense and did not make up this number out of thin air.

In the first game of World War, there were 130 million players worldwide. In this second game, the number of players has almost doubled compared to the first game, and the number of players in the game has exceeded 200 million.

200 million players participated in World War II. This is a number that can make any game company crazy. Any online game, even a stand-alone game, will definitely become a hit as long as it is supported by 200 million players. But this number is the number of people online in World War II. That would be even more terrifying. Calculated based on the ratio of the number of people online in online games to the number of gamers, World War has a game player base that accounts for one-fifth of the world's population. It is not an excessive requirement. It is very reasonable and can be achieved.

One-fifth of the population plays World War, which is definitely a good thing for the company, but it is not so good news for their hardware supply departments. Currently, World War can only guarantee 75% of people in 1,000 people. The battlefield will not be stuck. As for more, we cannot guarantee it for the time being. Once one-fifth of the world's population truly enters the game, a battle involving tens of thousands of people, or even hundreds of thousands of people, may occur on any battlefield.

Can the hardware support it? Can the player's computer performance support it? Whether the company's supercomputer can support it is a very thorny and realistic problem.

"Boss, I'm afraid this will be a bit difficult in the short term. Judging from the current update speed of computer performance, by the World War open beta day, I'm afraid that at most 75% of players' computers can meet the needs of a battlefield of 2,000 to 3,000 people. Any more will probably be very difficult. "It's difficult." Cohen didn't dare to tell the truth.

Lin Feng shook his head

"Too few, too few!" Lin Feng sighed, "I require that on the World War open beta day, at least 70% of the world's players' computers can withstand the battlefield of 100,000 people. One year later, the computer can withstand the battlefield of 100,000 people. It can withstand a battlefield of one million people within a year, and it can withstand a battlefield of tens of millions of people within five years.”

hiss! . . Everyone here took a breath.

There is a classic saying in philosophy - quantitative change leads to qualitative change.

In online games, this also applies here. At that time, after the number of online players reached a certain number, the demand for player computer hardware increased exponentially. In a battlefield with tens of thousands of people, the player's computer only needs to reach Pentium 4, but one hundred thousand people will need Pentium 5, one million people will need Pentium 6, and tens of millions of people may need Pentium 7. Every time the number of people on this battlefield increases, for computers In terms of hardware, it is a leap forward. Lin Feng wants to reach a battlefield scale of ten thousand people during the public beta.

Players must be required to reach a Pentium 4 computer. This is the current luxury configuration. In two months, will most players be able to achieve such a configuration?

Cohen had no doubts about its protection, since most players were not that wealthy. Most players don't have enough money to buy a better computer configuration for a game. You know, it is not cheap to equip a Pentium 4 computer nowadays. Moreover, Pentium 4 starts the second world competitor's products, allowing players to match each other's products. Isn't this annoying! Although I have to admit that for now, Intel's CPUs are indeed better than those in the second world. . . . . . .

What, you think you can’t do it? Lin Feng glanced at the president of the AMD division, who thought for a while and slowly shook his head. It's not that he is belittling AMD, but it is true that AMD chips are not good enough for the time being. Although Lin Feng has increased investment in the two hardware departments of AMD and ATL, it is impossible to make any qualitative leap in the short term. Innovation in science and technology requires the accumulation of time, unless a genius is born or more advanced technology is obtained. But currently, the second world hardware sector does not have these two points. Therefore, for the time being, we can only wait for breakthroughs through accumulation over time.

Everyone, as far as I know, the current computer hardware performance has far exceeded the hardware performance of PS2 launched by Sony. In terms of game performance, most games are not as good as PS2 games. Even if There are so many games that can compare with the game performance of PS2. You must know that PS2 was a game console launched in 2000, and it is now 2004. Today, four years later, it is not as good as a home game console four years ago. I think this is a bit incredible! Lin Feng knocked on the table and said

Everyone, look at me, I see you looking weird.

Director Lin, this is not the conversion. PS2 is just a specialized game console, and computers are not developed just for games. There is an essential difference between the two. Lu Yi explained.

But in my opinion, there is no difference between the two. Lin Feng interrupted Lu Yi's explanation. For players, all they see is that current computer games are not as good as PS2, but they are much more expensive than PS2.

Lu Zhi looked depressed and didn't know how to explain it.

Director Lin, what do you mean? ATL President He Guoyuan has some enlightenment

It's very simple. I have said before that we are developing gaming and entertainment computers specifically designed for gamers, paired with specialized gaming and entertainment systems. Hasn't there been no progress in the past six months? Lin Feng frowned and said.

Lin Feng had proposed this gaming computer and gaming system more than half a year ago, and ordered Lu Yizhi, He Guoyuan, Cohen and others to start research and development. Now it seems that no one takes it too seriously. Thinking of this, Lin Feng snorted heavily.

Seeing Lin Feng's dissatisfaction, everyone was a little shocked.

How to say this matter, it is indeed that they have neglected it a little, or a little underestimated it. Of course, it is not to say that they have not carried out research and development in this area, but they have not invested too much energy in this area. In their minds, this gaming computer and gaming entertainment system are really a bit unconventional. Although at present, personal computers are mostly used for games and entertainment, it is a bit too weird to develop such a computer specifically for them. And will consumers pay for it? You know, once its performance is biased towards one aspect, the functions in other aspects will deteriorate, this is certain, just like the hardware of PS2 is very good for playing games, but it is not good for some professional image processing or professional data processing. And let consumers spend thousands. Buying a computer that can only play games, watch movies and entertain is a bit mysterious.

Indeed, it is a bit mysterious to let consumers spend so much money to buy such a "professional" computer. Don't underestimate the appeal of games to players. At present, the mainstream of buying computers is still games and entertainment, and learning and work are auxiliary. Besides, can't gaming and entertainment computers be used for word processing, office work and study? Lin Feng asked

Lu Yi, He Guoyuan and others looked at each other and shook their heads. This is naturally impossible. It is not a problem to do simple office work and word processing on a "professional" computer. At least in some professional fields, the performance will be much weaker

OK Lin Feng snapped his fingers. In this case, we will immediately develop gaming and entertainment computers and launch gaming and entertainment systems. I will launch them before Christmas. By the way, the end of the year is also the peak period for buying computers. Chen Xiaowei, you should spend more time on this aspect and promote it more, so that consumers who want to buy computers recently will wait for a while, and finally let them all choose to buy the gaming and entertainment computers we launched

Chen Xiaowei nodded

Okay, let's adjourn the meeting. Lin Feng clapped his hands. It was already three o'clock in the morning. Everyone was tired. They still had to work tomorrow. If they didn't adjourn, it would affect their work tomorrow.

SS, what about the World War II? Minwu Li asked

Now each battlefield of the World War II is controlled at 1,000 people. The players are having a lot of fun and enjoying themselves. According to the original plan, the World War II will end at three o'clock in the morning. Obviously, if it ends now, the players will riot again

After all, anyone who is having a good time will curse when the game suddenly ends

Well, Lin Feng tapped his fingers and his glasses lit up

Publish a message to notify all players that the World War II will end at 7 o'clock in the morning. And after it ends, rewards will be awarded to the top 1,000 players in the world according to the player rankings. Lin Feng said with a smile.

What reward? Everyone was stunned

The Little Soldier Legend computer developed specifically for World War. . Lin Feng blinked

The Little Soldier Legend computer-everyone was stunned for a long time.

It's a gaming and entertainment computer. Lin Feng sighed helplessly. These people are well-known big names in the industry, how can they still be so ignorant? The gaming entertainment computer was originally developed for World War, and as every player, they will experience the process of going from a soldier to a marshal in World War, so the name "Legend of the Little Soldier" is very appropriate.

What's more, the most popular book in the online literature world is Legend of the Little Soldier, and Lin Feng just took the opportunity to promote Legend of the Little Soldier, killing two birds with one stone.

Also, after the internal test is over, Li Ke will make data statistics and publish the data of players in the game on the official website, and rank them globally. Remember, I want a very detailed ranking, including how many enemies the players killed in the game, how many times they were killed, etc. Remember one thing, although the internal test data will not be brought into the public beta, all the data cannot be lost. This will become the player's honor list. Lin Feng ordered.

Min Wu Li's eyes darkened, and now Lin Feng had a sudden idea in his mind. Their entire department doesn't need to sleep. How many days will it take to calculate these data?

SS, then I'll leave first, otherwise it will be very difficult later. Min Wu Li Li Li Ke got up and turned around and left. This didn't delay a minute, but the difficulty will increase later, so he dared not delay any longer. Before leaving, he looked at Lin Feng with resentment.

Boss, you want these data, why didn't you tell me earlier? It would be simple if you told me earlier. Just add a piece of code in the game, and everything will be solved. Min Wu Li burst into tears.

Looking at Min Wu Li's hurried departure, everyone mourned in silence. This guy can't sleep tonight.

Then he looked at Lin Feng again, a little envious, saying a word above and running errands below, it's true.

Lin Feng shrugged helplessly. Isn't this just a sudden idea for me? Didn't I just remember it? I can't blame myself.

Oh, and Lin Feng frowned. What did I want to say just now, but I suddenly forgot it.

Everyone shuddered. Min Wu Li was so upset by Lin Feng's words that he couldn't sleep all night. Now Lin Feng came again. They were scared. Everyone ran away immediately. Of course, everyone dared to run away because they knew that there was nothing to do now, or if there was something, it was Min Wu Li's business and had nothing to do with them. Although it was irrelevant, it couldn't resist Lin Feng's conscription. It's already three o'clock, for tomorrow's work, let's run away. As for if Lin Feng really has something to do, it depends on who Lin Feng will catch.

Choke, when Lin Feng remembered what to say, he looked back and saw nothing in front of him

Actually, I want to ask everyone to go for supper together, Lin Feng said helplessly

At this time, all the players who were fighting in the World War received a text message that the world ranking 1000 will get a small soldier legend computer

Crazy. . . . . . . . . .
