There is a Problem with This Online Game Planning Chapter 174

  Chapter 174 I won

  It has been nearly half a month since Linmu Studio launched the game platform, and it has been almost five days since the new game was unblocked.

  Although Linmu Studio's game platform called Vaporwave has a good evaluation, the people who use it are still limited to its two online games, and the new game still has little attention.

   Occasionally, someone posts on the forum about how they feel about playing a new game.

   But such posts were quickly covered and did not cause waves.

   On the contrary, the passport system launched in "Breakout" was a great success. Not only did it receive rave reviews from game players, but even many colleagues realized the power of this passport system.

  Some people did the math.

   Immediately discovered the cleverness of this pass system.

   Soon the idea of ​​imitation arose.

  For example, Li Guangsheng.

  The owner of Tianhu, the largest online game company in China, rushed to download a game platform as soon as Linmu Studio launched it, even more urgently than players.

   Of course he also paid attention to "Breakout".

   During this time, he would log in to the game platform of Linmu Studio almost every day.

   Check to see if the game platform has updated new things.

   At the same time, familiarize yourself with the existing functions of the game platform.

  He waited cautiously for more than half a month, and made sure that the game platform of Linmu Studio would not be updated in the short term, so he called the person in charge of the Skyfox game platform.

   "Have you used the game platform of Linmu Studio?"

   Li Guangshang sat behind his desk, looked at the person in charge of the platform standing not far away, and asked.

   "Yes." The person in charge nodded.

   “Tell me how you feel.”

  “…I have to say, Linmu Studio has a lot of ideas.”

The person in charge glanced at Li Guangshang's face, and then continued: "The built-in forum, evaluation system, and cross-game friend system are all urgently needed by our game platform. After all, we have more games under our banner. And the real-time push game latest The update function is also a genius idea, which can make players not feel that the platform is useless, after all, if you want to play games, waiting for updates is a very tortured thing.”

   "That's right, but you missed one point, the forum is also urgently needed."

  Li Guangsheng tapped the table lightly with his finger: "Don't underestimate this thing, this is an important way to understand players' thoughts, and it is also an important way to control players' public opinion."

  In fact, he has long been annoyed at those game forums outside of Tianhu.

"…I understand."

"The other is the evaluation system. You don't need to add it in the early stage, especially online games. You have seen the consequences of Linmu Studio's addition of the evaluation system. A evaluation system makes their new games even more embarrassing. I don't want our games to become This way. They have ideas and want to help those independent game production teams understand the evaluation of their games. It's a good thing.

   But until we have an effective control process for the review system, our games will not participate in the review system. "

"…I understand."

  The person in charge froze for a moment. He wanted to say something at first, but at the last moment, he thought of something, swallowed the words that came to his lips, and nodded in agreement.

  He originally wanted to say that it is necessary to increase the evaluation system.

  But it suddenly occurred to him that most of the Tianhu game platforms are online games.

  If an evaluation system is added to these online games...it will probably embarrass Tianhu.

   After all, most of Tianhu's online games are not as famous as the two online games under Linmu Studio.

   "Okay, let's go out to work, the other party's platform has already been launched, we have to hurry up."

  Hearing the other party's reply, Li Guangsheng nodded in satisfaction, and waved his subordinates to go out: "And call your boss in."

"receive."

  The person in charge of the game platform bent over and exited the office.

   Then the person in charge of the product department walked in.

   "I took a look at the new pass system in "Breakout". Have you paid attention to it?" Li Guangsheng looked at the person in charge of the product department.

"I paid attention, it's a bit interesting, by sharing the updated things to the players, and dividing them into two levels, ordinary and advanced, so that ordinary players can benefit, and then use rarer props to attract ordinary players to buy high-level passes. , is a genius idea."

"Um."

  Li Guangsheng nodded, then stopped talking.

  The person in charge of the product department also understood, nodded and said: "I actually have a similar idea, but it was always vague before, and now I have some ideas."

   "Okay, then go out and do some work."

  Li Guangsheng waved again.

  The person in charge of the product department also left.

  Li Guangsheng looked at his computer screen again, looked at Linmu Studio's game platform named Vaporwave on the screen, fell silent for a moment, and shook his head lightly.

  Both subordinates said that Linmu Studio had great ideas.

   Such an evaluation is really high.

  Even he had to admit this, the other party really had a lot of ideas.

  This studio does have a unique charm.

  If their new game is successful, and they still have the influence of "Breakout", maybe they will really build a game platform for the other party.

  But unfortunately, the opponent made a mistake in making a decision.

   Then there is nothing to say.

  Now the opponent's game platform is only used by users of two online games under its own. Although the user base is quite large, compared with the base of online games under Tianhu, it is nothing.

   And rely on those small games of Greenlight.

  It won't be a big deal.

   The outcome has been divided.

   At the same time, Li Guangsheng was convinced.

  Buyout system, stand-alone game, really has no future.

  The argument between him and Mou Feng at the beginning proved that he was the right person.

"…Ha ha."

  Thinking of this, Li Guangsheng suddenly couldn't help laughing, picked up the mobile phone next to him, and called Mou Feng.

  The phone rang twice and was connected.

  Mu Feng's voice came: "Hello?"

"see it?"

"what?"

   "For the new game of Linmu Studio, I paid special attention to the number of pre-orders, 9,000 people."

  Li Guangsheng sighed softly: "Nine thousand people, what can we do?"

  Mou Feng did not answer his question, but instead asked: "...you did the thing that broke the buyout system at the beginning?"

   "Does it have anything to do with me?"

Li Guangsheng smiled and said: "I said it was me, do you believe it? And you really think it is a problem to be solved? Is there no problem with the other party's decision-making? You told me at the beginning that suppression is useless, so if I admit I did it, does it prove that I am right? Suppression works?"

  Mou Feng was silent for a moment, then changed the subject and said: "...I took a look at the games in the Greenlight project of their game platform, and there are indeed many games with novel ideas."

"What's the use of that? Do you think those small games alone can make things happen? Don't be stupid, Afeng, you are too idealistic. You always think that you only need to rely on some dreams, and ideals can accomplish something, but what is reality? Is it that simple? Even if the first two games of Linmu Studio have been a big success, they have accumulated a large number of fans, and were even once hailed as the best studio in China.

   With such a bragging, they may even believe themselves. In the end, they forcefully launch a buyout game for the game platform, or a game of the same type as "Breakout". What will be the consequences? The number of pre-orders is only a few thousand, and the final sales may not even reach 20,000. They made a failed product! this is the truth! "

Li Guangsheng sneered and continued: "As I said before, the other party may be able to go faster with their sense of smell and the talent of their boss, but they are destined to not go far! Because they are idealists just like you. The game platform function is greatly affected. Good reviews? Just wait, when Skyfox's game platform is launched, you will know how vulnerable these things are.”

  When Mou Feng heard the words, he didn't speak for a long time.

"At the beginning, I told you that it was you who were wrong for Tianhu to transform into a stand-alone machine. You argued with me at the time, and even left Tianhu at the time. At the beginning, I said I would win, and now I won. Whether it was then or now, It's all about me winning."

  Li Guangsheng left the last sentence.

   then hung up the phone.

  Mou Feng sat in his study, took down the mobile phone next to his ear, and sat there for a while.

   I don't know what I'm thinking.

   After a long time.

  He just came back to his senses, sighed faintly, turned off the introduction page of the Greenlight project on the screen, and turned around to open the introduction page of Linmu Studio's new game "BattleRoyale".

   Actually until now.

  He hasn't even played the game yet.

  Because of the dismal pre-order numbers of "Battle Royale", he also saw it.

  And this was a devastating blow to him, who had returned from overseas and was preparing to flex his muscles in China.

  Because Linmu Studio gave him an answer with naked experience.

  Overseas where console culture is popular, you can pay to buy games, but in China, there is no future.

  Even if it is such a popular Linmu Studio, which was once promoted to the altar, it will not work.

  Although this is related to the decision-making of Linmu Studio, such as the wrong timing, the launch of the game crashed with "Breakout", and some people interfered with it, deliberately cracking the game package to trip Linmu Studio and so on.

   But at the end of the day, games don't sell, they just don't.

   This made him quite depressed.

  Even pessimistic about the games in the Greenlight project launched by Lin Yao.

   Li Guangsheng's phone call just now gave him the final blow.

   Could it be that I was really wrong?

  Mou Feng asked himself.

   It seems that it is indeed wrong.

  But he suddenly felt a little reconciled.

  Although the decision is wrong, although there are external factors of one kind or another.

   But is the new game of Linmu Studio really that vulnerable?

   Really only buy 20,000 copies?

  He doesn't quite believe it.

  Although he didn't have a good impression of Linmu Studio at first, and even once thought it was an unideal studio.

   Just like the sky fox.

  But the amazing release of "Breakout", the dedication of Linmu Studio in the competition, and the launch of the Greenlight Project.

   It made him feel that although this studio does online games.

   But still retain the ideal.

   "Then show me how about the new game? At least let me know the answer."

  Mou Feng thought for a long time, then heaved a sigh of relief, held the mouse, and clicked buy.

after an hour.

  Because the number of people is too small.

   It took Mou Feng half an hour to line up.

   But in the end, he still managed to play the game, the game that Li Guangsheng hailed as a failure by Linmu Studio.

   See the prompt that the game is over.

  Mu Feng slowly let go of the mouse he was holding tightly, then put down his hand, and wiped the sweat from his palm on his trouser leg.

   This is the sweat on the way to play the game.

   Then, he looked back at the screen, lost in thought.

  After playing the game, the haze in his heart suddenly became much less.

at the same time.

  He suddenly felt that his friend might be too happy...
