Game production, I entered the Star Iron shooting CG

"The worst time I was addicted to Xingtie... I forgot what happened next."

"Mi Huyou, you've done so many bad things, but with just this little plot, if others see it, they'll think we look down on you. Let's do another one, one for each of us!"

The audience in the live broadcast room immediately started complaining.

Tang Baibai didn't care about the barrage at this time because she hadn't had enough fun.

I thought I could have fun during the internal beta test, but Mihoyo hid all the good stuff.

For example, the Yalilo VI in the preview live broadcast, a planet, just think about it and you will know that it is much more interesting than the space station!

It feels like having prepared a table full of delicacies from land and sea, but only serving people cold jellyfish. It's too appetizing!

After a while, Tang Baibai finally spoke up: "Don't worry, everyone, you can explore freely now. Let's go see what's in the Black Tower Space Station first~"

Chapter 88 It’s really a loss to let you play this game for free!

Tang Baibai controls the character to move between the cabins.

Soon, she saw a small elite monster, which was the trampler she had encountered before.

But that was not the point. Tang Baibai's attention was completely attracted by the shining treasure chest behind it.

Driven by the treasure chest, she quickly dealt with the previously troublesome little elite monster.

It seems that her skills have indeed improved a lot after the suffering she just suffered.

Tang Baibai couldn't wait to open the treasure chest.

It gave several experience books, a blue relic, some credit points, and...

"There are quite a lot of things given. This uh... Xing Qiong? This can't be!"

Looking at the extra 50 Xingqiong in the currency column, Tang Baibai was a little shocked.

Because there are only two types of currency in this game now. One is credit points, which can be used to increase travel points and improve character levels.

Then this Xingqiong must be another more advanced currency.

There was also a lot of discussion about this in the live broadcast room.

"I guess this Xingqiong should be the currency for recharging money. However, Mihoyo has also added a way to obtain it in the game besides recharging."

“It’s a free game! You can play it for free even if you use Kryptonian currency!”

"Oh my god, Mihoyo is serious about this, this is too kind!"

"But the mall isn't open yet, so I don't know what this Xing Qiong can be used for..."

"Brothers, I have an idea. I just looked carefully for a long time and found that Mihoyo's character and clothes are modeled separately. Could it be that Xing Qiong bought new clothes to wear?"

"That makes sense. Costumes really don't affect the balance of the game."

"Xing's shoes got wet just now. They will take a while to dry. If they are made of thin fabric..."

"I want to see the Bunny Girl in the Stars... hehehe..."

“I strongly suggest that Mihoyo introduce a costume changing system!”

"Could it be an unlockable character? Silver Wolf and Kafka from the prologue should also be playable characters. But I don't know how to get them yet."

"That's also possible."

"..."

Everyone was very concerned about what the free krypton gold currency could be used for, and there was a lot of discussion about it.

Until the evening, the enthusiasm for the StarTie internal test had not faded, but became more and more intense. The content of discussion also shifted from the game itself to the question of when we could play it.

In this way, netizens gradually shifted their focus from the live broadcast room to the comment section of Mihoyo's official account.

"I'll give you a date. Tomorrow. Can we have a public beta?"

"Three, two, one! Public beta!"

"Hey guys, you two have traveled back in time, right? We just started the internal test today."

Moreover, not only under the official account, but basically on all the videos and social platforms that can be named, everyone is urging Xingtie to launch its public beta as soon as possible.

Naturally, the news of the internal testing of the Star Dome Railway instantly topped all major platforms.

………………

At the same time, the popularity of the game is growing.

The lucky players who have the qualifications for the internal test have also dug deep into the content of Star Iron.

By the evening, various analytical videos about the Star Dome Railway appeared one after another on the small station.

Some are doing plot sorting, some are doing monster encyclopedias, and some are digging deep into character stories...

Among these videos, there is one that stands out.

The number of likes for its videos is far lower than that of videos of the same period.

Its success is mainly due to two reasons.

First, its publisher is Shen Yan, a data analyst with Bilibili certification.

Second, the video quality is indeed excellent.

[Some guesses about the accumulation rules of the abnormality scale in Star Iron Real-time Battle]

Just by seeing its title, netizens can feel the weight it implies.

“Foreword: The pioneers may have discovered that they can easily defeat small monsters, but when facing elite enemies, we must act with caution and make reasonable use of the mechanisms in the game…”

"Since abnormal states of various attributes play an important role in defeating strong enemies, how to maximize the use of abnormal states has become a link we need to pay attention to."

"After the enemy is in the weathered state, the damage taken by the enemy will be increased by about 30%. This bonus is multiplied by the final damage, which is very considerable. So if there is a chance, it is best to give priority to weathering before the burst output..."

"Different enemies have different resistances to different attributes..."

"So the corresponding abnormal status accumulation meter will also change. It should be noted that if the enemy does not have a corresponding weakness, this accumulation meter is about two to three times that of an enemy with a weakness..."

"..."

"Conclusion: The above is my complete analysis of the abnormal state of the Star Iron internal test. Thank you for watching."

The entire video is nearly 20 minutes long, with an in-depth and easy-to-understand narrative, and a strong academic flavor and rich content.

"Very good video, it helped me graduate successfully."

"My mother asked me why I was kneeling to watch the video, and I said you don't understand, I was watching my doctoral supervisor write a paper on a small website."

"If I could write my graduation thesis like this, maybe I wouldn't be criticized so harshly by my supervisor."

"UP, have you considered working for Mihoyo? I heard they are still hiring!"

It's not just the beta testers who are discussing this.

Netizens who have not played the game are extremely enthusiastic in discussing it.

In gaming groups, forums, and even school groups, you can see the words "Star Dome Railway" everywhere.

The game really took off.

Shen Yan gained 100,000 followers with a game data analysis full of useful information, and she was very proud of herself.

Someone kept teasing Pepe for half an hour...

Some people are trying to find the Black Tower Lady at the Black Tower Space Station...

……

There are some Easter eggs hidden in the cabin of the Black Tower Space Station that will make you smile.

Every player in the game will encounter his or her own story, and the story will continue.

But these are all stories of players...

Mihuyou,

An Yi's office.

An Yi, the game author, just watched a video of a master who challenged his limit by using Sanyueqi to successfully kill Doomsday Beast alone.

I have to admire his patience and skills.

"It's really a loss to let you play this game for free!"

The office is brightly lit.

Heita lay on the table, burying his face in his arms. He didn't look at the computer screen, but turned his head to look at An Yi. His delicate face was full of smiles, and he said softly: "The game you made is quite popular."

Upon hearing this, An Yi turned around, put his arms around Heita's slender back, and held her petite body in his arms.

"Our game is popular. The game can achieve such high quality thanks to the game engine you made yourself."

Heita was very pleased with the term "our game". He rubbed An Yi's arm obediently and whispered, "When it comes to game engines, you are really bad. I have lifted the restriction that it can only be run within Mihoyo Company as you wished, but I left a hidden backdoor."

An Yi's brows relaxed and he said calmly:

"We didn't hide it when we released the internal beta. We can't hide the fact that we developed our own engine. With such high quality and speed, there will always be people who are eager to make a move. I just dug a hole. If they behave themselves, nothing will happen. But if they have thoughts that they shouldn't have, they will naturally have to pay a price."

Chapter 89: Who is in C of Mihuyou?

The popularity of Mihoyo’s Starry Sky Railway remains high.

Seeing this astonishing popularity, several competing game companies are naturally jealous and anxious.

The larger the company, the more jealous it is.

After all, no matter how hard a small company tries, it is difficult to reach this level, so naturally, out of sight, out of mind.

But those large game companies that have been enjoying a peaceful life sitting in their high towers can no longer sit still.

At this time, in the general manager's office of Penguin Games headquarters.

Wu Zhiqun paced anxiously in the office.

He also watched Xingtie's video. This was one of the few times in all his years of working in the industry that the situation was so urgent that he couldn't even wait for the report.

But the more he watched Xingtie's game live, the more confused he became.

"The space station is such a large map, every room is accessible, and all have detailed modeling and textures. With such a huge workload, how did Mihoyo accomplish it in less than two months?"

"There's even time to set up Easter eggs for players..."

Wu Zhiqun is now very confused. He can't figure out how Mihoyo did it.

He also asked his chief planner Lan Yu. According to Lan Yu's conservative estimate, it would take a quarter to achieve the quality of Star Iron, or a lower level of quality.

But you have to know that the number of employees of Penguin is 8 times that of Mihoyo.

It is not easy to directly copy the results of Mihoyo, because the technical department has not yet removed the protection encryption on the installation package of Xingtie.

"A brand new programming language? I can't understand it at all? How can this be so outrageous? Are the people in the technical department being lazy? Damn it, what's going on now?"

Wu Zhiqun had no idea that Mihoyo’s current technical support came from Ms. Heita from Xinghai.

You ask Penguin's employees to crack the encryption of the Black Tower.

What is the difference between this and asking primitive people to use stone axes to hit the water drops of the Three Bodies.

Just as Wu Zhiqun was pacing back and forth, his secretary Xiao Li knocked on the door and came in, reporting:

"Boss Wu, I have to say that the quality of the game of Mihoyo's Star Railway is really high. Our navy can no longer do anything malicious, even if they are paid."

"Okay, I already know this. Let's pay the remaining balance to the water army first and tell them to stop talking nonsense." Wu Zhiqun was feeling annoyed. After hearing what Secretary Li said, he waved his hand impatiently, "But high-quality games don't mean you can make money. There are many works that are well-received but not popular. And with such high quality, its cost is naturally not low. I want to see how they make money."

Wu Zhiqun had just discussed this issue with Lan Yu.

Because Mihoyo did not release any information related to krypton gold in the internal test, the only relevant point is that the currency obtained by recharging seems to have a way to obtain it in the game.

This made Wu Zhiqun confused.

Because of the quality of this game, the cost of investment is obviously terrifying.

No matter how you look at it, Mihoyo’s promotion of free games is out of its mind.
