658 The three games team up and fight

After PlayerUnknown's Battleground officially went on sale, the sales volume rose steadily!

This time, the domestic and overseas versions were released almost at the same time, and the sales figures were also calculated directly in the global sales.

Sixty thousand copies of the pre-sale version were sold, and more than eight thousand copies would be sold every day after that. This meant that PlayerUnknown's Battleground had brought in more than forty million in revenue!

Of course, it didn't seem like a lot. If Chen Mo calculated according to the numbers in his previous life, PlayerUnknown's Battleground had sold more than four million copies in March 2017 in June, with an average of more than forty thousand daily.

However, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds was a VR game in the parallel world, after all. There were only a few people who could afford a gaming pod and were willing to spend money on VR games.

Since the VR version of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds was ten times more expensive than the PC version in Chen Mo's previous life, Chen Mo's income was even higher than Bluehole's in his previous life, and he had a better start.

Moreover, this did not include the income from the internet cafe version.

Now, many players and VR internet cafes were still in a wait-and-see state. For internet cafes, the price of the internet cafe version of PlayerUnknown's Battleground was higher, so they had to consider it. As for the players, most of them could only afford one FPS game with their financial conditions.

Now, it was PlayerUnknown's Battleground and Wolf Soul: Modern battlefield and raging inferno Assault 2 appeared together, and none of them were cheap. For the players, they could only pick one that they liked the most in the short term.

Emperor dynasty entertainment and ZEN Entertainment couldn't sit still after the pre-sales figures of PlayerUnknown's Battleground came out.

This was because the three games were in a competitive relationship. It was obvious that there were zero-sum games. If PlayerUnknown's Battleground sold more, it would definitely empty the wallets of some players, affecting the sales of the other two games.

It was just like how some popular movies would seriously affect the box office of the subsequent stages of the movie, just like how it would suck away the popularity of the movie.

At first, the completion rates of Wolf Soul: modern battlefields and raging inferno Assault 2 weren't particularly high, and they wanted to delay the release of the games. However, under the strong performance of PlayerUnknown's Battleground, the senior management of these two companies couldn't sit still. Lin chaoxu and Liu Yuanfeng began to pressure the two games 'working teams, urging them to test the games as soon as possible!

The release and release of the game could be delayed, but the testing had to be done quickly. He had to try his best to hype it up and attract the attention of the players. Otherwise, he would only become more and more passive.

The staff of the two teams were forced to work overtime more frequently, but everyone knew that this was the most critical stage for all three games. They couldn't afford to drop the ball at this time!

Very quickly, a series of bombshell news was released.

Wolf Soul: modern battlefield and burning Assault 2 announced their testing and release dates. Modern battlefields was released earlier, and fire Assault 2 was the latest.

But sooner or later, the two project teams began to disclose a lot of game content in the hope of attracting the attention of players.

……

On the 12th of April,"Wolf Soul: modern battlefield" began its testing.

On the 17th of April, the testing of fire Assault 2 began.

Even though there were still some minor problems in the game, Qin Xiao and ran he could not wait any longer. They were in urgent need of feedback from the players before they could make further changes.

At this time, although PlayerUnknown's Battleground had been released earlier, the other two games were also trying their best to make the game popular. All kinds of public relations and anti-publicity drafts were also fiercely fought over, both overtly and covertly. The players of the three games were arguing endlessly.

"Don't say anything. The PUBG expert is invincible. If you don't accept it, you can't argue!"

"Hehe, it's just a game! I'm really impressed by Chen Mo's fangirls, only the game's design is new, but they're still bragging about how invincible the game is?"

"Wolf Soul: modern battlefields is better. It's fast-paced and very cool! With all sorts of modern weapons on the battlefield, this game would be more exciting!"

"That's right, Wolf Soul is a game that can stimulate your hormones, what's the point of winning chicken dinner? To cultivate the spirit of a coward? He he he!"

"That's right! Games that don't use guns should leave the group!"

[Players of fire Assault 2 are laughing at you two dogs biting each other. These two shallow games should just stand aside. The future is still fire assault!]

"F * ck off, fire Assault 2 was just a game that adopted the Western FPS game's playstyle and changed its Chinese background. You're the one with the least face, why are you acting like a Wolf with a big tail?"

"How does a domestic background have no cards? This is the first FPS game in the country that has a deep story. You morons who grew up eating fast food games know nothing!"

The three groups of fans gathered together and fought, quarreling with each other ...

If two games were competing with each other, it would be fine. It was nothing more than trampling on each other. But now that three games were competing with each other, the scene instantly became particularly chaotic, and it became extremely difficult to judge the nature of a player ...

Not to mention, there were many people who took advantage of the situation and watched the drama. They did all kinds of cross-dressing, which was the biggest show of the year.

It had to be said that the players from Emperor dynasty entertainment were the strongest.

Fire Assault 2 was the latest to be released, and it was a standalone game that was relatively aloof from the rest of the world, so its conflict with the other two games wasn't that intense.

The advantage of a single-player game was that as long as the game's quality was up to standard, the game wouldn't die out if there weren't any accidents, and he could earn some money. Of course, it wasn't easy to have a particularly domineering hit.

In this sense,"Wolf Soul: Modern battlefield and PlayerUnknown's Battleground were the fiercest competitors, so the smell of gunpowder was more intense.

The main point of criticism from players of "Wolf Soul: modern battlefield" was that there was basically nothing new in "PlayerUnknown's Battleground" other than the game's mode innovation, and the big escape mode was not a successful model that had been tested by the market. It was definitely just a short-lived one.

The players were having a good time now, but once this enthusiasm passed, the game would be over.

Of course, there were also people who picked on other aspects. For example, some people felt that PUBG could only have one person win the chicken dinner, and that the experience of most ordinary players was not guaranteed.

PlayerUnknown's Battleground players were also retaliating, but they could not find a good way to break through. In a war of words like this, not only did one have to emphasize their own advantages, but they also had to seize the other party's shortcomings and counterattack.

To put it bluntly, this kind of war of words wasn't just a battle of emotions between players. The game company's public relations team and marketing team were also behind this.

This kind of war of words would more or less affect the players 'impression of these two games. If a game had a one-sided bad review on the internet, many passerby players might not consider buying the game.

What happened after that infuriated the PlayerUnknown's Battleground players!
