Chapter 333: Chapter 213: The Arm Can’t Twist the Thigh (Part 2)
Nice! From a visual perspective, the killer has fun playing, and the spectators enjoy watching too.
But for the player who got killed, the experience isn’t exactly delightful...
"Indeed!"
Luo Ji, the chief planner of "Space-Ti Reconnaissance," couldn’t help but sigh, "There are just too many movent techniques that can be used based on the engine’s characteristics."
"If you can use these techniques and exploit bugs, you can practically achieve cheat-level feats in the ga."
This can be especially torturous for those who play by the book and engage in honest gunfights.
Gunfight? What kind of lousy gunfight is that!
Your opponents fly and are unstoppable, while you’re just a ground-bound chicken, standing there dumbly or hiding behind cover getting shot. If you aren’t suffering, who will be?
This is after Chen Ba ordered Liu Jinfu to refrain from using a series of bugs like bullet bending and bullet ti.
If these restrictions weren’t in place, it’s not hard to imagine how terrible the experience would be for ordinary players in such a ga, possibly even worse than in gas plagued by cheats.
Luo Ji believes this is a problem caused by the ga engine not being fully adapted to FPS gas and needing targeted adjustnts.
In other words.
Newly joined Luo Ji at Tianba Studio doesn’t want to bear such a huge bla right away. Things like bullet bending and bullet ti—he swears they have nothing to do with him.
The fault lies with the Tianba Engine!
When this engine was initially designed, it didn’t consider the needs of FPS gas, and even after adding them later, it wasn’t mature or reliable enough.
The most important thing is, the engine has been updated to version 3.0, yet it still hasn’t resolved issues left over from the 1.0 era.
What issues?
Of course, the gas developed using this engine co with unknown bugs straight out of the box!
"Those aren’t bugs..."
Seeing Luo Ji getting more and more outrageous, Chen Ba quickly explained, "Ahem, considering Old Luo, you just joined and aren’t very familiar with our studio’s situation, I’ll forgive you this ti."
"In the future, don’t say such things. Bugs? That’s a built-in feature of our engine..."
"Fine, fine, engine feature!"
Luo Ji caught the implicit aning in Chen Ba’s words and quickly rephrased, "So does this f... feature have any chance of improvent?"
"Most likely not."
Chen Ba said awkwardly, "All those features in the Origin Engine have been around for so many years; there’s no reason our engine’s features must be eradicated, right?"
"Alright, I understand."
Upon hearing this, Luo Ji completely gave up on expecting anything from the Tianba Engine.
If he were to make another FPS ga, he’d rather use a different engine than the Tianba Engine.
Though gas developed with the Tianba Engine don’t need to worry about cheats, the bugs in the ga could be even worse than cheats!
"Alright, don’t overthink it."
Chen Ba patted Old Luo on the shoulder, indicating he didn’t need to worry about it.
After all, the mission of "Space-Ti Reconnaissance" is already complete, and the ga has successfully brought fa to the Tianba Engine in the FPS ga circle.
Developers willing to try using this engine, especially FPS ga developers, slowly began to increase.
anwhile.
That pesky Kadir finally stopped pestering Chen Ba and took the authorization from Tianba Studio to the United States to work on his new FPS ga.
Although the authorization he got wasn’t the exclusive one he initially imagined, having it is better than nothing.
Chen Ba promised, after all.
The engine version provided to Kadir by Tianba Studio will be the absolute best in the world for developing FPS gas—a really cool engine!
Kadir was so moved he almost cried.
He didn’t even know why, in just a few days, Chen Ba went from being indifferent to him to suddenly smiling and even agreeing to his request.
But anyway, he’s achieved his goal!
"The old boy’s plan is likely going to fail."
While Chen Ba would indeed make a special version for him, who says a special version is necessarily better than the regular version? Isn’t it possible that an export-limited edition is also a special version?
Kadir is in luck!
The regular version of the Tianba Engine is already pretty uncontrollable. Only so functions have been cut, but the features haven’t been cut, so... what kind of ga will he make?
Just as Chen Ba was all smiles, happy to send away the plague god, Yang Dong, and Huang Qing walked into the office.
"What’s up?"
Liu Jinfu, who was playing a ga, took off his headphones, turned around, and saw that most of the executives of the studio were present.
"It’s okay, you can leave first."
After having Liu Jinfu and Old Luo leave first, Chen Ba brought the two to sit on the sofa and asked, "What’s going on? Why the long faces?"
"We’ve been sued."
"Who?"
Huang Qing ntioned a dostically well-known company and then said, "The reason is that our ’I Am a Big Influencer’ infringes on the copyright of their company’s product."
"That’s pure nonsense!"
Chen Ba said speechlessly, "One is a ga, and the other is short video software—they’re worlds apart, and yet they’re causing us trouble?"
"The lawsuit isn’t the point."
"The point is they are scared of us and want to block us from obtaining a license and official release."
Huang Qing explained, "Maybe they’ve seen the power of our AI agent and felt it threatens their core business."
Not to ntion, Tianba Studio is also planning to integrate live-stream shopping and advertisent monetization thods into ’I Am a Big Influencer.’
With other software, they might not be afraid, given the user base is there, and the software experience is worlds apart—there’s no reason to fear other software.
However, with Tianba Studio stirring things up across industries and suddenly coming out with an AI agent that shocked the masses, this is different from other software.
Only those truly in the industry know how destructive this AI agent can be.
To put it harshly, even if other software continues to develop unless Douyin and Kuai don’t screw themselves over, their position as industry leader remains.
But with the sudden appearance of this AI agent, it is hard to say. After all, this thing is a devastating blow to the entire influencer short video industry.
"Too many jobs are involved."
Huang Qing told Chen Ba that before coming to report, he thought about why this was happening.
Then he concluded that whether it’s the influencer economy or live-stream shopping, the whole industry involves a lot of people.
It’s not a matter of one platform falling and restarting elsewhere.
The main problem is that "I Am a Big Influencer" is a ga! Although it has so short video software functions, at its core, it’s still a ga...
"I get it!"
With Huang Qing saying this much, Chen Ba imdiately understood.
The AI agent threatens a certain popular national short video software, which is significant, involving countless jobs and prospects.
If ’I Am a Big Influencer’ were a similar software, killing the competition comrcially might be acceptable.
But the tough spot is, it’s a ga, and from so people’s perspective, gas are dispensable.
"Well, that’s that."
Chen Ba is in his thirties now, no longer the young guy he once was, and naturally wouldn’t act impulsively for justice.
If the ga gets axed, so be it!
Although this is a first, Tianba Studio has never faced this situation before, but frankly, any normal ga studio or company would go through such a thing.
Even big companies like Pig Goose have quite a few gas axed each year.
He only feels bad for Dong.
After all, Dong put so much effort into this ga, and reaching the testing phase only to be axed is indeed hurtful.
But there’s no other way.
Who says you can’t twist arms with thighs, and who says Tianba Studio is just a "shady ga studio" that can’t create flexible employnt or provide jobs!
He can only console Dong and hope that soday the ban will loosen, and ’I Am a Big Influencer’ can return.
Indeed!
Returning isn’t rare; Pig Goose often does this. Many new gas may look new but are actually old gas that were axed before...
