Games such as "Resident Evil Resistance" that John is developing do not involve linear plots. The biggest advantage is that they do not have to develop all the content before going online.

For example, the maps in the game, the main gameplay modes, and even the types of firearms and zombies, basically complete half of the content, or two-thirds of the content can be sold online; the simpler version is the early access version. Usually, as some follow-up funds are not enough, it is necessary to return the funds in one step, or out of cost control of the project.

But for game development, this is not a bad way to allow players to participate in the game in advance and give suggestions to improve the game, which is the most obvious benefit.

The game is being developed intensively. After outsourcing some projects and the complete design idea of the entire game is determined, the development speed is much faster than expected.

At the same time, there is more and more content on the Internet about "Resident Evil Resistance." Without investing in the cost of publicity, it is certainly impossible to grab the topic with the recent masterpieces.

However, John has more than one million fans, and the fans of PixelPioneers Studio have made "Resident Evil Resistance" gain some attention. Well-known media sites such as Gaming Stars have also given some news about "Resident Evil Resistance."

However, some of the materials revealed did not disclose much about the gameplay. In addition to knowing that this is a multiplayer mode, and the perspective is not the third-person shoulder type of "Resident Evil," more information is still unknown.

However, many people still speculate about the content of the game.

"Remember the Mount Massive Asylum in 'Outlast'? Don't you think that those weird mental patients have the same role as the zombies? Likely, the Mount Massive Asylum is also the research institute of Umbrella in 'Resident Evil.' First, it is specifically used to study new viruses, just like the city of Raccoon. The leak of the virus destroyed the Asylum."

"It's very possible. It certainly feels a bit like this, but the trailer contains a shot of Leon and Ada stopping the zombie at the police station. What's the matter?"

"There is also a picture of Claire and Sherry."

Along with the discussion of the plot, new players soon found new loopholes and made rebuttals. A group of people in the forum community speculate about the content of the game story of "Resident Evil Resistance."

[ ===== ]

In the office, John couldn't help but smash his mouth after watching the players discussing "Resident Evil Resistance," and then sighed.

"This group of players is smart." In the community forums, almost as if they have noses and eyes. If he didn't develop the game, he would believe it. They also connect the plot of "Outlast" with "Resident Evil".

"John, what should I do in this place?" When John was in though, Luna next to him suddenly shouted.

Hearing Luna's cry, John leaned in and saw the function interface.

"What are you doing? Studying numerical values?" John asked, a little curious to help her get it right.

"You will know later," Luna said confidentially, and John raised his brow.

In the end, John didn't know what she was doing, and he also slowly forgot about this matter with the development of the "Resident Evil Resistance" project.

[ ===== ]

"Damn, we have a traitor. How did an infected person appear in our position."

"That's what you deserve for being greedy."

"This zombie is indestructible, it needs to be modified."

"No, press the switch. Don't fight the zombies, it's about to teleport."

A group of people in the office yelling and screaming in the name of a test game as experiencing the game. John grabbed a controller and followed the team to play.

After half an hour of entertainment time, everyone left. Some bugs have been fixed after testing.

At present, there are three modes of the game, which are PvE, zombie infection, and zombie escape mode in PvP. As for the hide-and-seek model, it has not yet been developed.

The various functions on the server side have also been almost completed, and several stress tests have been conducted internally to ensure that there is no problem. The monthly server rental and maintenance costs are accompanied by an increase in the number of players. John chose Baker's Ansoft.

In addition, including the official website port, John also opened a recharge port. This game is different from the previous game, there is an in-app purchase recharge component. This is also an attempt to gain more funds.

"I finally know why a large number of developers will look for third-party publishers to play games." John sighed in the office looking at the accounts that cost money.

Subsequent server operating costs, including customer service costs outsourced by third parties, advertising investment costs, and so on. The game itself includes outsourcing and team wages, as well as subsidies, plus some miscellaneous expenses, which cost 30 million Dollars, but the cost of third parties in addition to development costs is already close to 40 million.

"Our overseas income from 'Resident Evil,' which is not short of money, has already arrived, and the mobile port of 'Binding of Isaac' and 'Octopath Traveler' is almost completed." Armani was not worried at all.

"And Mr. John, we can apply for a loan with the bank." Speaking of this, Armani felt a little helpless.

To accelerate the development of businesses, it is normal to operate a mortgage loan from a bank. But he did not know why John was very resistant to this approach.

"I don't like owing money to others," John said and didn't lie.

Hearing his words, Armani was speechless.

"In addition, for 'Resident Evil Resistance' overseas distribution, the conditions are a bit problematic. Except for the five-year agency distribution rights, they require the authority to operate and modify the game overseas." Armani said to John.

Operation and modification authority in overseas areas?

"No!" John didn't even want to listen to their conditions and responded instantly.

Hearing him, Armani was helpless again.
