How to make the game NPC look like a living person?
How to make the process of the game world produce corresponding dynamic changes with the players'' behavior?
The best solution that Li Zongzheng can think of is to design an independent intelligent program for NPC, so that NPC can understand the behavior of players and give them corresponding feedback!
At least, on a small number of key NPCs!
However, this idea seems very simple, but it is not easy to realize in technology.
If it wasn''t for Wu fan''s mentioning that part of the design of the bionic neural network being studied by Yunmeng technology coincides with the kind of intelligent program needed by the "sandbox world", Li Zongzheng would never have come up with such a fanciful idea.
After listening to Li Zongzheng''s explanation, Wu fan''s face was full of meditation.
For a long time, his eyebrows raised a trace of interest expression, raised his head and said.
"It sounds interesting... Although I don''t know much about online games, I can have a try."
"Really?" Du Ziteng stared at him, his face looked like constipation, "are you sure that the kind of... That kind of idea that President Li said can really be realized through AI?"
In fact, what he wanted to say at first was daydreaming.
If Li Zongzheng was not his immediate superior, he would have said so.
"In theory, of course, it''s OK, but I can''t give you 100% commitment for things I haven''t done. And I said, I don''t know the game as well as you do. Even if I succeed, I can''t guarantee the effect you expect."
Wu fan gave a cautious answer to Du Ziteng''s query.
However, Li Zongzheng, who looked at him eagerly, didn''t seem to hear this sentence. I saw the general manager Li holding his shoulder with a happy face and looking at him with bright eyes.
"There''s hope, isn''t there?"
Looking at by the hot eyes, Wu fan stepped back half a step in sweat.
"Yes... But I said, I can''t guarantee it --"
"That''s OK!" The smile on Li Zongzheng''s face became more and more brilliant, and he patted him on the shoulder, "this glorious and arduous task is up to you, I promise you, we will do our best to cooperate with your experiment!"
Originally, Wu fan wanted to persuade him not to have too much fantasy about such uncertain things. However, when he heard the second half of the sentence, he unconsciously swallowed it back.
Do your best to cooperate with their experiments
This condition is almost irresistible for him who regards the completion of BCI technology as his lifelong dream.
With a smile on his face, he took out a more exaggerated momentum than Li Zongzheng and nodded his head firmly.
"Well! I promise you
"You can completely believe me, our technology will certainly not let you down!"
……
For an excellent work, it is essential to give players the operation of painting cake.
Just when Li Zongzheng decided to use the AI technology of cloud dream technology to build a sandbox world called Azeroth, Du Ziteng, the manager of the operation Department, also gave this heavy news to reporters who had a good relationship with cloud dream group.
There is no accident. When I heard that Yunmeng game was going to design world of Warcraft as a highly intelligent sandbox online game, almost all players in the world were shocked by the news.
Sandbox online games?
What is that?
[dynamic Azeroth? That is to say, the story after the frozen throne is handed over to the players
What''s going on??? NPC embedded with intelligent program?? Is it true or not
[to be honest, it''s too big a boast. It''s up to each player''s behavior to decide the progress of the game, and also to make NPC smart like a living person? Unless cloud dream game arranges a customer service for every NPC
I''m afraid that one is not enough. Even if it''s perfunctory, at least each NPC has to be assigned a group
[not necessarily, they can arrange a rice elf for every NPC( (funny)
[I just want to ask, when will it be available? Do you have a chance to play in your life
Game Island Forum Warcraft discussion community, related topics of the post, almost occupied the entire front page of the panel. Although the ways of expressing surprise and shock are different, the meanings in those posts are almost the same.
Or I think cloud dream game is crazy.
Or they think they are too strong!
It''s easy to maintain a dynamic world, which can be achieved by continuously releasing major updates. However, it is not so easy to determine the direction of the game world through the behavior of players.
First of all, the player''s behavior is uncontrollable, and every update of the game needs a long time to prepare before it can be released. Unless cloud dream game can make an almost perfect framework for world of Warcraft, and then let the follow-up game run perfectly in this framework, and give all the follow-up updates to the intelligent program to complete.
Only in this way can the idea of "dynamic game world" be realized in the true sense.
It''s not just laymen who marvel at the pie drawn by cloud dream game, but also professionals in the industry. For the vast majority of them, the concept of sandbox game is just a vague concept. Many people are still exploring how to introduce this concept into stand-alone games, and have never thought of applying it to online games.
The reason is very simple. If any online game dares to do this, it will almost certainly be broken by the players with big brain holes. Not to mention the program, sometimes even as a person himself may not be able to understand, some players in the game wonderful behavior.
But now, cloud dream game is once again in the forefront of the industry, many of them dare not think of the design concept in front of the players.
Even if it''s just a cake that hasn''t been baked yet
"Using intelligent technology to create a dynamic game world? Is this guy crazy? " Looking at the news on the mobile phone screen, Xu Qianshi has a surprised expression on his face.
After working in the game industry for so many years, it''s the first time he''s heard such a ridiculous idea.
Moreover, compared with the idea itself, what he couldn''t figure out was the reason why Hao Yun did it. Warcraft has made unprecedented achievements in Xia country''s game history. With countless fans, he doesn''t need to take such a big risk. As long as the quality of the final products of world of Warcraft is above the pass line, thousands of players will not hesitate to pay for it.
Now, however, they have drawn such a big pie for the players.
Once the final product of cloud dream game doesn''t realize those wild ideas, it will not only make players feel cheated, but also suspected of cheating consumers.
Wu Jianhua, standing at his desk, said with a complicated expression.
"To tell you the truth, I can''t understand the reason why they do it... But I heard that the AI technology of cloud dream game is provided by cloud dream technology."
Xu Qianshi, who had never heard of the name at all, looked at him.
"Is cloud dream technology famous?"
Wu Jianhua shook his head and said.
"It''s not famous, but it''s quite famous in the field of brain computer interface. At about the beginning of the year, they seemed to have received a billion yuan or several billion yuan investment from Jiang''an capital, and they suddenly became the gold owners of the whole brain computer interface research field. In this frontier field where the future of commercialization is not yet clear, those who have money are the stars in the circle, so many well-known domestic research institutes have cooperative relations with them. "
"The research on neurobionics is the most mature technology with the most application scenarios in the whole research field of brain computer interface. Even if their own information is not enough, the research institutions that they pay for will be happy to help. "
Speaking of this, Wu Jianhua stopped for a moment and suddenly sighed softly.
"When I saw Yunmeng Group invest in brain computer interface technology, I still think Yunmeng group has a lot of money and no place to spend, but I didn''t expect that man was playing such a big game of chess."
Once they succeed in getting players to accept and get used to the open world mmorg, other MMORPGs can hardly lift their heads in front of world of Warcraft.
To put it bluntly, how can a general game company have the spare money to invest in AI technology?
In the front, it''s throwing money and engaging in electronic competition to build a moat for Warcraft''s IP. Now it''s burning money and playing technology to build an industry barrier for MMORPG. The whole industry is almost chasing him, but it can''t even see the back of his head.
Finally, Xu Qianshi came back to his senses, and gradually began to realize this. The expression on his face became dignified, and then changed from dignified to scared.
The strength of this man is stronger than he imagined
