History go up the biggest fraud! Global player is numerous prepared 1.5 billion, producer make 18 vi

Everybody is good, it is here Jing game, I am Jing little younger brother.

On October 10, 2012, GDC congress spot, ever had made " the Milky Way flies will " " free lancer " , be known as " space game is patristic " the new play that famous game producer overcame Reese Luobaici to announce them " interstellar citizen " , announce to will be used numerous prepared means collect fund.

The message just announced, a large number of players are swarmed into " interstellar citizen " government-owned net sends money, government-owned net does not carry the discharge of increase sharply on the head, broke down in GDC congress midway.

On the classical space game of the century " the Milky Way flies will " ↑

The player pushs government-owned net the circumstance common occurance of scamper, but the reason is the player wears those who send money urgently but little little. Up to now, " interstellar citizen " already procuration capital 224 million dollar (it is 1.518 billion yuan of RMBs about) , became game history (also be numerous chip history) the one great marvellous spectacle that go up. " interstellar citizen " why can procuration so much money? Where is its glamour? Chinese player may imagine very hard, little nevertheless younger brother cites a case to everybody you may understand.

Of government-owned net numerous prepare amount ↑

Have suppose so game of a knight-errant, its picture and authenticity should be compared far " wild big armed escort 2 " delicate, its warfare system is compared " ghost sob 5 " " Ares 4 " outstanding still, the novel that its gut should need than Gu Longjin more free and easy rises and fall, it has all corners of the country that one is being updated forever and ego evolves into, tens of school a large number of heroes sets up a separatist regime by force of arms, and each inches of land is detail is abounded and without seam connective... good, little younger brother feels this cake is already enough big, if have a such game numerous chip, do you wish to not be willing to spend money to aid financially it to be done?

" interstellar citizen " cake, but not as small as this.

" interstellar citizen " planned to the player a grandiose cosmic view, here has about a hundred universe, phyletic and various ship vessel, still one updates the universe with ego evolution ceaselessly, you can experience grandiose single person gut, endless the Milky Way also can be explored jointly with other player on the line...

But went 7 years, " interstellar citizen " still appear give a kind of very primitive state: Can play content not much, also keep even ship of major naval vessel in JPG and GIF phase, and negative news also exposes to the sun again and again piece, for instance large area cuts down the member of persons employed, numerous prepare capital to had been spent etc, " interstellar citizen " the opinion on public affairs that is a fraud for a time cause a temporary clamor.

In light of little younger brother, say " interstellar citizen " it is a fraud has break biased, but I also think the future of game special not hopeful, specific reason listens please little younger brother slowly come.

" interstellar citizen " 2018 the bottom obtained financing of 44 million dollar, plus numerous raise the wind of 224 million dollar, " interstellar citizen " those who developed fund reserve to reach 268 million dollar is gigantic. What concept? " GTA5 " development cost is 266 million dollar, " interstellar citizen " fund reserve has exceeded this number.

Say normally, have so huge development fund, plus development time of 7 years, how can also make a pretty like the model 3A blow hard. But the project management of producer disorder is mixed,cranky to detail pursuit let game waste a large number of needless cost.

" interstellar citizen " did not think of at first numerous prepare can such success, as numerous the growth that plans amount, luo Baici's ambition also is in growth, show some atelier and can not assume a scale " interstellar citizen " the important task of capacious blue print, then he begins frequent him dilate outside bag team. The outspread group that make does not have a problem, but the group of CIG is in dispersedly many cities, this brought about harmonious job to become a difficult problem, the thing that does via often can having A studio and B atelier do not match, can retreat only change again.

And grow as go-getting of the group that make, every month can have new target appear, final " interstellar citizen " the program becomes monster of a Pang Ran. Plus the group that make too dispersive, management is very confused, whole production line is a pot of porridge-a complete mess. Of course Luo Baici also realized this problem, the CIG when recombining atelier later (" interstellar citizen " development business abbreviate) encountered disturbance cutting down the member of persons employed, the sound that also brings about the outside to oppugn CIG is increased further.

Each CIG atelier close according to ↑

Engine is CIG encounter your one catastrophe problem. Generally speaking, choice of the meeting when big plant develops game grinds oneself engine, block the RE engine of general sky for instance, FOX engine of Kelemei, use grind oneself engine is OK stabler and efficient development game. But make engine want to expend much energy and time, so " interstellar citizen " producer Luo Baici decides not to expend that interest, use existing engine directly, chose finally to be made " Gu island crisis " CryEngine.

CryEngine does a game picture ↑ that come

But many employee of CIG expresses later, to make " interstellar citizen " , they rescripted in great quantities the code of CryEngine. And Luo Baici to perfect cranky also expended many development cost, for instance he asks to consolidate the model of the first person and perspective of the 3rd person, this is a technical crisis that becomes very hard, if you use perspective of the 3rd person to play game of the first person, can discovering role model lives is one ghost story, both should be achieved uniting is very difficult.

The 3rd person looks " Gu island crisis " ↑

After that the accuracy that Luo Baici tracks an object in tremendous and open environment to raise engine, the demand rises 32 computation of CryEngine 64, of engine alter bring about much work do poorly done work over again again, development staff suffering can'ts bear character.

Because of this a series of coquettish are operated, " interstellar citizen " capital is expended in great quantities, 2017 is to expose to the sun more the individual account that gives Luo Baici left 14 million dollar only. And " interstellar citizen " for collect Qian Kaiqi a kind of new achieving receives kind: Sell a ship. These ship vessels some had been installed in the fact in game, some still stays in notional phase, the price of airship does not poor, can want than game noumenon much more expensive, so " interstellar citizen " also be called by play now " god selling a ship teachs " .

" interstellar citizen " all sorts of medium ship vessel ↑

310 U.S. dollors, even more expensive than game noumenon ↑

Little younger brother also does not have evidence " interstellar citizen " how money uses after all, but the numerous raise the wind that what can prove is a player was retreated harder and harder really, these year CIG amends refund agreement for many times, let player complaints are heard everywhere, even somebody had sued CIG company.

What be worth to be carried additionally is, CIG shares more than 500 employee, the company is current the biggest expense was 2017 extends employee wages totals 30 million U.S. dollor. And Luo Baici purchased a value in los angeles in September 2018 the house of 4.7 million dollar, he weighs those who buy to this is the private deposit that uses this.

Be in charge of negative news to pester a body only, but " interstellar citizen " still updating game to make rate of progress regularly, you can be mixed in government-owned net Youtube channel examined game what to do to update regularly, understanding game plans next, compare that to be able to frisk everywhere only at least, look for American president to want commitment " unreal " much stronger.

Develop plan ↑ newlier regularly on Youtube

Game affirms or can be done, little younger brother worries exclusively even if " interstellar citizen " become the next " unmanned deep space " , how to update again, also do not fill on the large hole that oneself dig.

Little younger brother beats dead to also want to say: I do not think from beginning to end " interstellar citizen " it is project of a cheater, but of confused project management and author a few " strange think of clever want " let game development be full of twist, at the outset 100 affirmatory galaxy did not finish 1 times repeatedly at present, the naval vessel ship that sells fund repeatedly also did not finish entirely, it is to let a person feel anxious to game foreground really. " interstellar citizen " final result how, everybody says bad, but I still hope it can not lose a player to expect to it.

Jing problem: Do you feel " interstellar citizen " can be you done really?
