An Expert Is actually By My Side

Sea Lion Group Building.

Although it's time for get off work, the project department of "Endless Epic" is still crowded with people. No employee has left his desk, and no one dares to relax.

Today is the day when "Endless Epic" goes live.

Almost the eyes of the entire gaming circle are focused on their games.

With a sweat in his palms, Huang Chao got up from his desk, pacing back and forth in the office.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the office, and he immediately stepped forward and opened the door. Looking at the partner who appeared at the door, he immediately asked.

"How's it going?"

Zhao Qiguang said with a confident smile on his face.

"Good can't be better! A large number of players have poured into our servers, and the twenty servers that have been online so far are all full! According to this trend, I am afraid we will have to open another twenty servers to satisfy the players. demand!"

Hearing these words, Huang Chao's hanging heart finally relaxed, a cheerful smile appeared on his face, and he said in a joking tone.

"Really? Then I'm relieved."

Zhao Qiguang said with a smile.

"Relax, it is not us, but Yunmeng Games. They have spent more than a month marketing World of Warcraft, and now all the players have been cut off by us. I am afraid they would never dream of it. Ours They moved so quickly that they didn't give them any chance to react."

In order to get online before World of Warcraft's public beta, almost everyone, whether it is an overseas development team or Qiguang studio employees, tightened a string and worked overtime.

Fortunately, they finally succeeded.

The alpha round of World of Warcraft has not yet ended, and they have come up with a game that is not only highly similar to World of Warcraft in terms of gameplay and content, but even slightly better in quality.

In addition, they cleverly played a side ball during the promotion, and labeled "Endless Epic" as a Warcraft. All the publicity made by Yunmeng Game in the early stage, now they have all made wedding dresses for them.

"There is no rush to increase the server... we can increase it in several batches. There is no need to satisfy the appetite of all players at once."

Always keep players hungry.

This is what Huang Chao learned from World of Warcraft.

Why can an activation code for deleted files and internal testing be fired to such a high price?

Just because the game is fun?

If you really think so, you would be wrong!

He knows the psychology of these players very well. The more you stop them from playing, the more they want to play. Compared with the activation code that was fired for more than 50,000 yuan, it is very conscient to enter the game just by lining up!

At least in Huang Chao's view.

"But... won't this degrade the player's gaming experience?" Zhao Qiguang's expression on his face was a bit hesitant, and he looked at him puzzledly and said, "As far as I know, the longest queue time has even been extended to an hour. The average time for players to line up is basically more than half an hour."

"Don't worry, it's okay. The number of people in the queue just shows our game is hot. Are you willing to play the kind of ghost clothes that no one will have after you enter, or play this kind of magic work that is full of servers 24 hours a day?"

Looking at Zhao Qiguang who was stunned, Huang Chao smiled faintly and continued.

"Besides, if you don't want to line up, there is no way, wait for the next update, remember to open a member recharge entry on the queuing interface. As long as you recharge to become a member, you can not only sign in every day to receive the gift package, but also jump in the queue to enter the game. This way players wait in line. The problem is solved and we still have money to make. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"

Hearing these words, Zhao Qiguang's eyes suddenly lit up.

Niu batch!

This is a high trick!

Not only can it accurately take care of the game experience of RMB players, but it can also reduce the time spent by prostitutes occupying server resources, which is simply killing two birds with one stone!

However, there is still a problem that needs to be resolved.

"But... what if too many people jump in the queue during peak hours, and even members won't be able to squeeze into the server?"

A bright smile appeared on Huang Chao's face when he heard the inquiry from his partner.

"It's easy to say, we will launch another one when the time comes. Recharge and become a member will not only skip the line directly, but also enter the exclusive privilege server, enjoy 1.2 times the experience and gold coin bonus!"

"Niu Bian!"

Zhao Qiguang couldn't help but gave a thumbs up.

This idea is too shameless!

...

The shamelessness here is of course not derogatory, but compliment.

As a qualified game designer and a good employee of the Sea Lion Group, what's the use of this thing?

Can you eat it as a meal?

At least not counting the KPI assessment indicators, nor can he be given a year-end bonus.

Carefully study the art of cutting leeks, and harvesting players’ wallets accurately is the kingly way!

On the other hand, just when all the employees of the "Endless Epic" project team are working overtime, Say, who has been specially taken care of, has entered the game through the anchor channel.

After all, queuing in front of millions of spectators, do you want the face of the Sea Lion Group any more?

Entering the game, Say Ye quickly entered the character creation interface.

Indeed, as officially advertised, the character modeling is quite beautiful, just like a model in the window of a clothing store. But because he himself is a pragmatist, and there are millions of viewers watching, he didn't waste too much time pinching his face, just fine-tuned a few parameters and entered the game.

The race is still a human race, born in a towering fortress city. Say Ye subconsciously compared it with Stormwind City in World of Warcraft, but after thinking about it for a long time, he only found one advantage.

"The graphics of this game are pretty good."

From the magnificent buildings to the textures on the NPC costumes, the performance of "Endless Epic" is indeed slightly better than that of "World of Warcraft".

However, I don't know why, standing on this bustling street, Say Night can't feel the atmosphere of an MMORPG game.

how to say?

It's not that it's not lively enough.

In fact, the game's performance on the first day of launch was quite popular. Many players who did not play World of Warcraft were fooled by the previous promotional PV, so that more than 20 servers were crowded, even You have to wait in line for half an hour to enter the game——

However, even if the street has been crowded with new players, he always feels that something is missing.

It wasn't until he saw the blacksmith standing on the street and the cold and monotonous dialogue set in the floating window that he finally understood where this inexplicable sense of violation came from.

And it's not just he felt it.

The audience in the live broadcast room is also the same.

Before he could give a comment, the barrage had already started.

[This fan game is quite reductive. 】

[Yes, it's just a pity. I learned the fur but didn't learn the inner core. 】

[I miss the blacksmith of Stormwind, when will the night **** begin to broadcast the demon? 】

[I don’t know if the anchor can finish this task chain before the end of the alpha beta~www.ltnovel.com~ I just want to see what the holy sword looks like and what attributes it has. 】

Seeing the barrage in the live broadcast room, Say Ye smiled bitterly, but he couldn't speak easily when he wanted to say something.

After all, the partner's person is also in the live broadcast room, he can't say don't worry, everyone will be able to see the content that you like after these four hours, right?

Perhaps after noticing the rhythm in the live broadcast room, the public relations team of the Sea Lion Group began to exert its strength, and some weird things began to be mixed on the screen.

For example, such as "This game is so well done" and "Everyone come and play", these are just barrages from robots.

With a headache, Say Ye closed the barrage window, and sighed, Say Ye tried hard to ignore the things in the live broadcast room and focused on the game.

At this moment, he felt that he needed someone to comfort him more than the water friends in the live broadcast room.

The thought that it would take another week to broadcast, his heart was filled with despair...
