The first thousand and twenty-ninth chapters need to be hard on their own(1/2)
The networking function of home computers.
This function cannot be said to be very important nowadays, but there is no doubt that the dc home console has popularized this concept itself.
In other words, Sega used DC to redefine the Internet standards of home computers even if they themselves did not realize what they did.
When Sony's PPS is about to be launched, home machines can be connected to the Internet and next-generation machines can play games through the Internet, which is a common standard. At least you need a platinum trophy or similar achievement system.
The game achievement system originated from the Mirwin platform of animi. The Mirwin platform that supports Internet connection has the original Internet achievement system.
On the homepage of the Mithrillion platform, there is a "Game Celebrity List", which includes a game duration list, a game number list and a comprehensive achievement list.
The more platinum trophys, the greater the probability of appearing on the celebrity list.
By the way, the player who is now ranked first on the Mithril platform has 00 platinum trophys. In other words, this guy has passed at least 300 games, and each game has been fully accomplished, which is simply crazy.
This trophy system is also involved in Sega's home computer. Although it is not as detailed as the Mithrillion platform, they also provide a special game list. They only need to connect to the Internet to view it, and they can also see their rankings.
The concept of "game achievement list" seems to have become a concept in everyone's mind for next-generation game consoles along with the Internet.
A person can have an impact on the ten people around him. After all, DC has sold millions of units, with an influence of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. This is something that can be expected.
Although the number of people who buy it may be limited, the concept of home computers being able to intervene in the network and being able to fight online is already very widespread.
As for the Lighthouse Country, many people have even chosen games that can compete online and then play games.
According to the feedback from Sega, the number of players using DC to play games is about 100,000 online on weekdays, while the number of active users is 500,000, and the number of people who have used DC to play games is 800,000.
"But according to the survey, about two million gamers value online combat functions when purchasing, even if they can't use them at all."
Hearing Lihua's addition, Morixia put down the investigation report in her hand.
This investigation report on the latest situation of home consoles was asked by Senxia to Lihua. When the Order of Phoenix was reorganized, Senxia made such a report.
Of course, because it is a sampling survey, except for the data that Sega can see, other parts, numbers and real situations may differ.
"But it really surprised me. Eighty percent of the purchasers think that the Internet game mode is a plus for game consoles..."
Moriya was surprised.
I really didn't expect this kind of thing.
What’s strange is that not many people can use this function, but everyone thinks that such a function seems... very good?
Very subtle.
Senxia suddenly thought of her experience of buying something on Taobao. Two items with the same price, the one with the "multifunctional" one, often liked it even more. Although this so-called "multifunctional" seems to be impossible to use it at all.
This kind of thing is quite common, and the Internet gaming experience is indeed very novel. It is normal for everyone to regard chess as a bonus.
This is like in the era of smartphones, whether the mobile phone has phase focus or smart anti-shake system is very concerned about it for many people. Although these people may not be able to take two photos in half a year, they are more willing to choose a mobile phone with good camera functions.
Senxia found that she seemed to have been shot inexplicably...
It's gone far.
"We can make a point about this," said Senxia. "According to the Internet, players of PS are tired of Sony's delay in providing Internet modules."
In fact, the most common thing on the Internet is to search for DLC cracking patches.
But that kind of thing...Morixia doesn't have it!
Well, yes, although Morika previously revealed the so-called "dlc" operating mechanism on PS on the Internet, this does not mean that Morika can really simply crack this system.
In addition to cracking patches, the most common posts are that some people are worried about whether there will be a network battle mode on PS.
In the early days, many games on PS had DC versions. After comparing the two games, these players found that the pictures on the PS version did not make any significant progress. In addition to the more detailed maps of some games, these games logged in on multiple platforms had castrated the Internet battle system here on PS, which was a bit disappointing.
"Men Xiajun won't do anything illegal, right? Don't learn from Qianjia like that!"
After seeing Morixia's expression, Lihua naturally thought of what Qianjia had done.
"How could I do something illegal? Commercial things... as long as I'm not discovered, it's not illegal!"
Ahem, although I have no moral integrity, it is just like that. As long as I am not discovered, it is not illegal...
"Is there really no problem with this?"
After all, Lihua is a former student president. Although she is often teased by Qianjia in private, she still has the integrity of the student president.
Senxia continued: "But we try our best to use normal commercial means. There are still many defects in PS, which is enough for us to do something."
The defects of the network system have been criticized by the majority of players on another timeline, although everyone basically cannot use this function.
The lack of PS network system is indeed a very bad thing for this machine.
In addition, PS does not support HD TVs, which is also a very delicate place. Well, although PS has DVDs, the output end has a very large limitation.
However, this is understandable. At most, machines these days support color difference interfaces. Digital interfaces such as HDMI are not available in P.S. This cannot be said to be Sony's mistake, but the times are developing too fast.
Moreover, in the later stage of the PS life cycle, pstohdmi's conversion interface has also been launched.
The third flaw about Sony that Moriya could find is the game aspect. Many games on the platform are actually not the best versions played on PS. Many games are more or less castrated and changed, which has caused the charm of the game itself to change.
"Although it's a flaw, it's not a black one..."
Although Morixia has a hundred ways to force blackmail, if she can't get rid of her son, she will become a clown instead, so Morixia won't do such things.
If there is anything that can really reduce the audience's expectations, it's only the Internet.
According to the information obtained by Senxia, Sony did prepare a network system, but the module they prepared was actually a dial-up network module.
Brother Sony, the millennium is coming, don’t you think using dial-up network is about to fall behind?
"But, simply reducing expectations is indeed not a good way..."
There is only one, which feels too subtle.
Perhaps the historical status of PS is not as good as FC and PS1, but it is undeniable that this machine is indeed a generation of magic machines.
Well, just Sony doesn't let go.
Sony's rise is unstoppable. The best possibility of DC and the upcoming DCP, Senxia speculates that it is to occupy a small part of the market and protect itself.
And the possibility of being crushed by PS is still very high.
"It would be great if there were another five years..."
If the Internet can move forward for five years, Morika would be confident enough to occupy a strong position in the Internet era, but for now, what Morika could do is very limited.
"It seems that I can only enhance my own game lineup..."
Senxia was originally trying to find a way to fight Sony, but after thinking about it, Senxia suddenly realized that the ironwork needs to be strong himself.
In this situation, we need to completely surpass the other party in terms of game quality.
Could it be that we can still expect Morixia to wear a black sweater and come to California to hold a press conference. Then everyone started buying and buying, and then Sony was crushed by the torrent of the times like Nokia?
Please, Senxia is not the leader of the Qiao gang...
"Anyway, let's send a letter to the developers of the Mithrilian platform first, inviting them to fully port the game to DC..."
If you want to say that there is anything good about DC, it is the Windows Ce system prepared by Giant Hard. This system makes it very easy to port game games. It is very easy to port PC games.
"Have you contacted a group of people before?"
"This time it's all," Moriya said, "In addition, what about the community for independent developers that the Mitsunian platform is preparing?"
The Miltarian platform is not just about operating games. The Miltarian platform itself is also a game incubator. Morika had intended to build a community for individual independent developers and then develop independent games. This kind of independent games and fan games are actually similar, but if independent games can be made, there might be some very good games?
"Well, I'm already planning and I'm collecting opinions from producers now." Lihua said, "In addition, the ja.va programmer you recruited in Senxiajun is ready for Beimi... But is ja.va really helpful to us?"
ja.va language is a cross-platform programming language. Simply put, this language is to establish a virtual machine-like running environment in the computer, so no matter what platform you use, you can run this language.
However, although this type of language seems to be very powerful and has high compatibility, it has a very big flaw, that is, its operational efficiency.
It is not that the efficiency of C or assembly language must be greater than that of ja.va, but in general, the efficiency of the latter is indeed not as efficient as the former.
After discussing things with Sega, Morika started to do this. However, everyone in the company thought it was unlikely to develop games in this language because the efficiency of the game produced in this language must be very low.
"Then optimize, then continue to optimize, and finally optimize, optimize, optimize, optimize, and wait until the Phoenix Order is ready, you can give them the parameters of dcp first, and then let them perform special optimization work based on dcp." If programmers can keep up with the optimization, the running efficiency of ja.va language can also be improved. "If it really can't be done... then their goal is the next generation of game consoles, but from now on, they need to prepare for me."
This is the only thing that Moriya can't compromise.
Because this issue involves a game.
One may be considered Tetris, Super Mario, and another game that can change the world after Final Fantasy.
A super game with unlimited possibilities and never falls behind.
Lihua didn't say much.
There are times when Moriya will not compromise.
Although Rimori Naka is gentle on weekdays, during the last conversation between Mori Naka and Hidetaka Miyazaki, Lihua saw the tough Mori Naka for the first time. At that time, he could not tolerate any compromise.
And Moriya is the same now.
Morixia couldn't argue about this matter.
Although he is a bit arbitrary... but he is unexpectedly handsome.
Lihua found that she seemed to like the tougher Sen Xiajun.
"This matter is a matter of certainty, and funds need priority as well as Hidetaka Miyazaki's side." Morika once again instructed Lihua.
To be continued...
