IW工作室表示系列变化小因为玩家大多非核心

  《COD》系列发展到现在已经接近10部作品了,从最早《现代战争》的惊艳,再到《黑色行动》的出色表现,这些经典作品都给玩家们留下了深刻印象。但是肯定也有系列粉丝指责开发商,游戏的变化幅度是在太小,感觉每一作都是换汤不换药,针对这个问题,Infinity Ward工作室的执行制作人Mark Rubin也作出了答复,他认为这是因为他们的玩家群中有一大部分不是核心玩家。

  Mark Rubin在接受OXM杂志采访时说道:“我们有一大批的玩家都是休闲玩家,但是他们却花很多时间在玩我们的游戏上。这是一个很奇怪且很讽刺的事情。他们不是铁杆玩家,甚至都不是玩家,但是他们还是愿意每天晚上花时间来玩我们的游戏。这部分人群与平台无关,所以我们不仅要保留这部分现有的玩集群,同时我们也要考虑让该系列如何在次世代走得更远。”

  此外,Mark Rubin还告诉记者,IW不能不能改变太多核心规则,如果先要留住现在的玩家群,就要想办法让他们从休闲玩家变成职业玩家。“我们可以做很多外界工作,比如个性化制定,通过全世界联网让游戏变得更加有趣,加入新的模式、增加新的动态地图等。”

  “所以我要说,我们任然有很多事情要做,任何时候我们推出一个游戏我们都要说,他必须拥有其特点,这是我们希望让玩家们了解到这个特点才开始出货呢,所以我认为我们永远能够带来新奇有趣的东西,从字面上说我只想做出比上一款游戏更好的作品。”

  动视已经确定《COD:幽灵》将于2013年11月5日登陆PS3、XBOX360和WiiU平台,同时该作也将成为XBOX ONE首发游戏,而PS4版会在11月晚些时候发售。

Infinity Ward says a lot of Call of Duty players “aren’t hardcore gamers”

Call of Duty is typically associated with the term “hardcore game”. However, you might be surprised to hear that a bulk of the series’ userbase isn’t actually made up of dedicated players.

OXM recently asked Infinity Ward’s executive producer Mark Rubin whether he anticipates the franchise’s audience staying the same after Call of Duty: Ghosts launches. He does believe this will be the case, as there are “an enormous amount of players who are more in the casual game space”. Rubin added that these types of players “aren’t hardcore gamers, or even gamers, but they play Call of Duty every night.”

He said:

“Yeah I think so. Because regardless of platform – people’s gaming habits aren’t going to change just because there’s a new platform. We have an enormous amount of players who are more in the casual game space, but they play a lot.
“It’s kind of a weird, ironic thing to say. They aren’t hardcore gamers, or even gamers, but they play Call of Duty every night. And those guys are going to continue to play regardless of platform. So I think not only will we continue to engage with that existing player base, but we’ll take next gen and see how far we can go with it.”

New 64-bit Cross Platform 3D Engine Announced by Newly Formed Oxide Games



New 64-bit Cross Platform 3D Engine Announced by Newly Formed Oxide Games

Top industry engineering talent spanning decades of experience with companies such as Firaxis and Microsoft have formed a new independent company, Oxide Games. In addition to making cutting-edge games, Oxide is dedicated to making the definitive 3D engine for next-generation strategy games for console and PC. The engine, Nitrous, is a native 64-bit multicore game engine designed specifically for the hardware now common in PCs as well as the Sony PlayStation 4 and Microsoft’s Xbox One.

What makes Nitrous unique is its support for Simultaneous Work and Rendering Model (SWARM). Specifically, the engine renders calls automatically from whatever CPU core is most available. This allows for a vastly larger number of high-fidelity 3D objects to be rendered to the screen at the same time.

Tim Kipp, co-founder of Oxide Games said, “In most modern games, players may see a handful of unique, high-fidelity 3D models on the screen at the same time. That’s because current 3D engines are 32-bit and rely on a ‘main thread’ to talk to the GPU. Nitrous, by contrast, was designed from scratch to be a 64-bit, multicore engine. Nitrous will render epic numbers of units and light sources on a screen at any given time.”

The founders, which include Dan Baker, Tim Kipp, Marc Meyer, Brian Wade, and Brad Wardell, have decades of industry experience between them have worked closely with AMD, Intel and Nvidia for the past several months to ensure Nitrous is able to take full advantage of the latest hardware.

“As the sole industry provider of technologies powering both PCs and major next-generation consoles, AMD is a natural fit for Oxide’s Nitrous engine, an evolutionary leap in PC and console gaming development,” said Ritche Corpus, director of ISV gaming and alliances, AMD. “Oxide’s Nitrous engine supports thousands of high-detail animated models on screen simultaneously. Nitrous makes tomorrow's designs come to life on today's top hardware like AMD’s new AMD Radeon™ R9 Series GPUs, unrivaled APUs and powerful CPUs.”

In addition, with its unprecedented utilization of multiple cores, Nitrous is able to realize the potential of new architectures such as Intel’s Haswell CPU.

“The Nitrous engine has made great progress on the fundamental substrate for parallel compute in PC games. Their tasking system shows near-linear scaling across Intel’s high-end desktop PCs, which translates into players being able to control an unprecedented 10,000 interactive units in their engine,” said Mike Burrows, principal engineer and technical director for visual computing engineering at Intel Corporation.

By natively supporting 64-bit computing, Nitrous is able to support very high resolution texture models while its multicore capability enables vast numbers of light sources on screen simultaneously.

“Our existing and upcoming GPU architectures, such as Maxwell, fully leverage the memory capabilities of today’s PCs,” said Ashutosh Rege, vice president, game content & technology at Nvidia. “Nitrous, having been designed with 64-bit gaming in mind from the start, should be able to deliver games with an amazing level of detail across entire scenes of incredible scale.”

A number of developers have already committed to using Nitrous for upcoming titles. Developer and publisher Stardock Entertainment, known for PC games such as Sins of a Solar Empire, Galactic Civilizations and Fallen Enchantress, provided the seed capital for Oxide Games as part of the Stardock Strategic Investment Fund.

“We see an enormous opportunity for developers with a 64-bit multicore engine. The challenge in developing next-generation strategy games is that players expect the world to have visuals comparable to high-end first person shooters while still expecting hundreds or thousands of units, buildings, and other elements on screen at the same time,” said Derek Paxton, vice president of Stardock Entertainment. “With Nitrous, we’ll be able to have visuals and performance with a fidelity never seen before in a strategy game.”

Oxide Games is based in Timonium, Maryland. Learn more at http://www.oxidegames.com/.

新工作室Oxide Games组建 用64位引擎开发游戏

Oxide Games工作室是由《文明5》前开发商和Stardock的CEO Brad Wardell组建而成,该工作室应用新的64位元渲染引擎Nitrous,制作PC和次世代主机(Xbox One和PS 4)游戏。

Nitrous渲染引擎充分利用多核技术,可提供实时渲染。

工作室的共同创立者,同时也是Firaxis的前引擎设计师Tim Kipp称,Nitrous可对屏幕上数目庞大的图形单位和光源进行渲染。

显然,“许多开发商”已经决定在他们的新游戏中使用该引擎,虽然没有具体项目公布出来。鉴于Stardock已经为该引擎的发展提供了种子资金,所以工作室即将到来的64位游戏,《银河文明3》很可能会使用Nitrous。

Derek Paxton,Stardock Entertainment副总裁称,开发商们有“无数的机会”使用“64位多核引擎”,而且“在Nitrous的协助下,我们可以在一个战略游戏中,为玩家们提供前所未有的视觉体验。”

无延迟云技术即将问世!无需安装运行3A级大作

Approxy公司今日宣布它会在本周的伦敦动漫展上,借用Nordic Games工作室的《致命冒险(Deadfall Adventures)》游戏来展示它们的无延迟云游戏技术。Approxy表示致命冒险(Deadfall Adventures)》游戏会以一种游戏界此前从未目睹过的方式运行。

Approxy一直在致力于云技术的开发和推广,它的业务主要是为希望降低发售成本的AAA级游戏的发行公司提供云游戏服务,其最大的优势是开发商不必为使用了这种服务对游戏软件做出任何改变。

Nordic Games的市场营销总监Nick Blower在接受采访时说:Approxy的系统能打破原有网速的限制,扩大整个游戏的受众面。我们很高兴能用我们的游戏为它提供支持。

Approxy公司的首席运营官Bartu Ahiska则说:Approxy所提供的产品使用了目前最先进的第四代Cloudpaging技术,比之前其他公司所公布的云游戏技术都更加稳定、经济,网络效率更高。使用了其云技术的用户可以快速进行游戏,无需安装、无需下载补丁,不稳定的网络连接也不再是问题,玩家甚至还可以在离线状态下使用他们的服务。而且使用该技术之后,玩家购买的游戏游戏连带补丁、插件和模组都会自动出现在游戏库里。

这听起来真的十分神奇,不过“无延迟云技术”是不是有开发商夸得这么好只能在到下周的伦敦动漫展上见分晓啦。

英国游戏开发商齐努力 预计五年内盗版问题将消失

据一项新的调查,大量的英国游戏开发商开始调整自己的游戏和业务模式来抵制盗版。

英国贸易组织TIGA向游戏工作室询问了有关盗版问题的看法, 该组织的调查发现,87%的被调查者认为采用新的业务模式可以更好的抵制盗版,因为这样可以带来更为严格的执行力。

虽然57%的被调查这都认为盗版问题对公司的业务有所影响,但73%的人认为玩家在网上下载这些游戏并不违法,不会影响自己的发展。

过去几个月里,这家英国贸易组织一直在收集非法下载的信息,而很多的下载都可能是盗版游戏。不过,40%的被调查者称,告诉消费者盗版带来的危害才是最最重要的。

不过,更值得注意的是,37%的被调查者认为,在五年内,盗版问题将不再是游戏业的大问题,由于现在的新型游戏模式,比如免费模式,大多都需要经常进行在线检查才能进入游戏或者应用。
