Chapter 304: I EA, do not ask others

Once again ushered in the annual E3 game show, but this year's E3 is a little episode, that is, Sony and Microsoft seem to have agreed, and did not participate in the E3 exhibition.

Instead, as the oldest brother of Yusanjia, Nintendo brought a little new things, such as a special hybrid host. When Microsoft and Sony showed strong one by one, the old brother finally started to have new actions. Although, from the current point of view, it is still in the stage of drawing cakes.

Moreover, compared to last year's aura and the God of War battle on the E3, this year's E3 exhibition is actually not hesitant.

For example, Hideo Kojima announced on Twitter and his official website that his death was stranded, in order to better polish the quality of the game, and then the next day as the death stranded protagonist Crossbow is also on Twitter. Said that death stranded is definitely one of the greatest games of this century.

And then... I'm sorry there is no more, the death stranded continues to strand, but on the E3, I can still see the figure of Hideo Kojima and the stranded death, but I don't know when they can really let the player see this one and wear it. The veiled masterpiece.

At the same time, according to Chuhe's industry news, Blizzard's World of Warcraft will also be facing players around the world on E3, and more information will be announced at the same time, such as the time of the global public beta.

I don't know the exact time, but Blizzard officials should announce on E3 that many domestic manufacturers have already gone to the United States to find Blizzard to discuss domestic agents.

In fact, Warcraft can be so popular in the country, mainly due to a hero, although this hero does not very authentic, and not only players including multiple game manufacturers hate this hero.

That's Ogilvy Electronics. In the summer of 2003, as the expansion of the Warcraft 3 expansion, the Frozen Throne was listed globally, and this was the first real global synchronized sale. It was a crazy thing for all players during that period. , Plus the game itself has a native Chinese version, even when the piracy was the craziest, the first day of Warcraft 3 sales reached as high as 40,000 copies.

To know that at that time, there was no online mall, all players had to go to the suppliers who cooperated with Ogilvy Electronics, and finally in the era of crazy piracy, Warcraft 3’s genuine sales in China were as high as 160. Wanfen is simply an incredible thing.

Of course it sounds shocking, and people can't help but feel emotion.

But the key is coming. Most of the 1.6 million copies of genuine sales are in the pockets of Ogilvy Electronics. The main reason is that Blizzard was still under the control of Vivendi, and Vivendi is a Gamers who know a little bit about everything should know.

Although Ogilvy won the agency rights for the global simultaneous sale at that time, the price was also very heavy, so Ogilvy launched a skewed mind, that is, the cd-key that most players have heard sells more than one yard, resulting in many players in At that time there was no way to log into the genuine Blizzard Battle.net to experience online.

It should be known that as a genuine game, the only advantage over piracy is the ability to enter Battle.net, although later there are online platforms such as HF, even entering Battle.net is not as convenient as those pirated platforms.

But the question is coming. In addition to the willingness to spend money to support the game, the players who buy genuine ones are not for service and a sense of superiority?

You should know that the original price of Warcraft 3 at that time was 48 yuan, and most of the pirated discs were 10 yuan.

The result of someone buying a pirated disk for 10 yuan is the same as the service they can receive for 48 genuine CDs. Isn't this as uncomfortable as eating shit?

It’s good to say superiority, but in fact most genuine players don’t say anything, but they also have such an idea in their hearts, that is, I play genuine, and speak a little louder.

Okay, a little further.

But because of this issue, Blizzard is still at a very cautious stage with regard to China's cooperation, although it is now out of Vivendi's claws.

In addition to Blizzard's World of Warcraft, this year's E3 exhibition includes Capcom's Devil's Cry, the second part of the Serpent of the Dark Rising Moss, and EA are all old faces. Too.

In addition to the Assassin's Creed that everyone knows with his eyes closed, Ayu has brought a blockade of the works of the Tom Clancy series this time.

Activision's words are probably the sweetness of the previous modern war, COD Modern Warfare 2 started.

EA is much more ambitious than these people. First of all, it will take a wave of new works on its own battlefield, and then the mass effect and the new work on the front line of Star Wars will completely detonate the entire E3.

With three consecutive 3A masterpieces, there is no doubt that the absolute star of this E3 exhibition has been won by EA.

In comparison, the Tianhe network, which has been followed by players before, will be much more low-key.

In addition to the wilderness darts online model that will be announced on E3 in advance, Tianhe Network brought along the exhibits of the murderous prototype being developed by Longzu Studio, and the heavy rain being developed by QD Studio. The 3A-class mecha mobile game is temporarily named as the product of poly explosion.

Although there are many games participating in the E3 exhibition, it is not as eye-catching as EA.

After all, there are three consecutive 3A-level games, and they still have IP sequels with a lot of fans, which can be said to be quite eye-catching.

The games of Tianhe Network, except for the wilderness big darts who have invested a lot of publicity resources recently, the other few games are not famous, except that they lost their faces at the original press conference, and there is no news of them. Too.

"This time E3 players are estimated to blow your head to the head of Chu." On the eve of E3, Prot and Chuhe stood together jokingly when they were laying in the venue.

"How to say?" Chu He was not angry and asked with a smile.

"It's starting to make cakes again, including what the online mode looks like. Except for the promotional trailers, even the players don't give them a try, can they not be hammered?" Prote said towards Chuhe.

Think about watching games from other manufacturers, allowing players to try them out, and I want people all over the world to see how good their games are.

As a result, when it came to Tianhe Network, it was reversed.

"Do you keep enough mystery for the player." Chu He smiled carelessly.

At the time, the wilderness did not really let players understand what kind of game it was, so at that time the entire working group temporarily launched a trial version to let players maintain enough confidence.

But now the games are all out~www.NovelMTL.com~ Some people even say that this year has been scheduled for the TGA Best Game of the Year nomination, and half of the feet have already stepped in.

Are you still worried about players not expecting?

Waiting for chant.

While the two were talking, an old acquaintance came, Charles of EA.

In addition to the battlefield, including Mass Effect and Star Wars, these two projects were promoted by Charles. He can be said to be particularly attentive. In addition to the recent project promotion, including the E3 conference on EA, he will also personally Introduction to the stage.

But it seemed that he had no pressure at all, but instead seemed confident.

Of course, this is also related to EA's recent market performance. With the announcement of the mass effect and Star Wars two games, EA's stock price has skyrocketed along the way.

Now it has reached a record high.

If you use one sentence to describe it, it is probably that my EA never asks for help.
