CS, that is, Half-Life, a genuine game CD, was originally priced at 68 yuan.

After Facebook Games acquired Ogilvy, it adjusted the price of the game to 36 yuan, which is equivalent to a discount. Moreover, the price of the special Internet café is even cheaper, on average, a computer in the Internet café only costs 18 yuan.

Of course, not long after the price adjustment at this time, many players and Internet cafes did not know the news.

In fact, even if they knew, they wouldn't buy the original. Why pay for something that you can play without spending money? Why do you want to do something with this money?

The reason why Facebook Battle.com restricts only genuine logins is not only to sell games to make money, but also to condone the arrogance of white prostitute users!

Moreover, for those players and Internet cafes who have purchased genuine games, Facebook Games should make them feel that the money is well spent, and it is worth it!

This distinguishes genuine users from pirated users.

In the past, there may have been pirated users who ridiculed genuine users, "Are you stupid, you have to spend 68 yuan to buy a CD for five yuan, people are stupid and have a lot of money." Look at me, I didn't even spend five yuan, I borrowed the pirated disc that my classmates bought, and installed it directly, haha!"

But in the future, it will be genuine users who laugh at pirated users, "Huh, are you still fighting against people on the LAN in Internet cafes? Who still plays LAN now, Battle.net understands, I'm a brilliant diamond rank, do you know what a brilliant diamond is? haha!"

Taking this opportunity, Facebook Games is to correct the bad atmosphere in the domestic game circle.

Provide players with services that exceed their expectations, but players also have to pay for it!

This is the reason why an industry can develop healthily and long-term.

............

When Zhang Liang was ready for everything, clicked the "Qualifying" button with great anticipation, and was about to enter the Battle.net server to kill all sides, a basin of cold water poured down his head.

A message popped up on the platform, "Sorry, after system detection, the game you are using is not a genuine game, and you can't play a battle game on Facebook Battle.net, please support the genuine version, buy the genuine game KEY, and after activating it on the platform, you can play online battles." ”

Zhang Liang was dumbfounded, what genuine pirated version, I have never encountered this problem when playing games before.

"Network administrator, network administrator, come here, why can't this game be played? He turned his head and shouted.

At the same time, several teammates sitting next to him also questioned, "Yes, we can't go up either, what is not genuine." ”

"Why can you only play it if it's genuine?,Aren't all pirated software in Internet cafes?,There's no problem with the fire elves.。 ”

The network administrator heard the shout and walked over quickly, "What's wrong, what's wrong, what game can't be played?"

Zhang Liang pointed to the computer screen, "It's CS, I can't log in." ”

The network administrator said suspiciously: "It's impossible, CS is played every day, and many people played all night last night, and no one said they couldn't play." ”

As he spoke, he reached out and took the mouse, and tried the start button on Facebook Battle.com, and sure enough, the message still popped up.

He was stunned for a moment, then minimized the Facebook Battle.net platform, clicked on the CS icon directly from the computer desktop, and the game opened smoothly......

"Oh, maybe it's just that you can't play Facebook Battle.net, you can play it directly from the desktop, and there is no problem with the game. ”

Zhang Liang became angry when he heard this, and he said in a rough voice: "Other Internet cafes can play Facebook Battle.net, I just came from the fire elf, and all Internet cafes are playing Facebook Battle.net! Why can't you Internet cafes? I don't care, I'm here to play Battle.net, you can quickly solve the problem for me!"

Several teammates also coaxed, "That's it, who still plays LAN now, we're here to play Battle.net!"

The network administrator was also embarrassed, so he found the manager of the Internet café and explained the matter again.

When the manager of the Internet café heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "Don't worry, students, I'll inquire about what's going on first, can the fire elves play?" I know the manager over there, ask what the situation is. ”

As he spoke, he pulled out his phone and stepped aside to make a call.

Within a few minutes, the manager of the Internet café walked back, "I asked clearly, the fire elf bought the genuine software of CS, so it can log in to Battle.net, it is indeed because of the problem of the game, our Internet café is now installed with pirated versions, and it can't be logged in." ”

"What should I do? I'm here to play Battle.net. Zhang Liang was in a hurry.

"I ...... We will purchase a batch of genuine software as soon as possible, as soon as this afternoon, I will call someone to buy it now. The manager of the Internet café gritted his teeth and replied.

He has already inquired about the acquaintances on the fire elf's side, the last time the fire elf chain Internet café was sued by Facebook Games, and then the two sides reconciled privately, and the fire elves of those large chain Internet cafes reached a strategic cooperative relationship with Facebook Games.

Installed the Facebook Internet café management software, and bought those more popular genuine games, and the price was cheap.

Today, the benefits of buying genuine are highlighted, and Facebook Battle.net can only be used by the big Internet café chains like Fire Elves, because they are genuine.

Like the small Internet café here, you can't log in.

The manager of the Internet café is not stupid, he understands that CS is so popular now, basically seventy or eighty percent of the people in the Internet café are here to play CS, if other Internet cafes can log in to Facebook Battle.com, but their own Internet cafes cannot, then it won't be long before business plummets.

A genuine game is only eighteen yuan, even if you buy Warcraft and Diablo together, it will be more than fifty, and you will pay it out if you grit your teeth.

As for StarCraft, forget it, there aren't many gamers in the first place, so you can save a little.

This is the promotion method that Facebook Games came up with, first let Facebook Battle.net become popular among players, and then let players go to the Internet café, your Internet café does not buy genuine software, and it is not possible to bundle the Internet café management system.

Because if you want to buy those games at a special price, you have to bind Facebook's Internet café management system!

In this way, Facebook Games has saved a lot of promotion costs, and instead used the money for promotion as event bonuses to attract more players to play games on the Battle.net platform!

............

In this way, the manager of the Internet café went to contact and buy the genuine game KEY, and Zhang Liang and they held on and waited in the Internet café. Because they are afraid that when they come back in the afternoon, the Internet café will be full!

Zhang Liang also logged on to the forum area of the official website of Facebook Games to see those players showing off their achievements one by one.

What "Triple Kill*5", "Five Kills*2", "Headshot Machine", "Sharpshooter", these are all kinds of cool titles on the personal settlement page after the game is over.

This battle.net, the details are really in place!

In the past, when I played CS, I just stuffed my head and hard, leaving no traces after the fight. But Battle.net is different, all your brilliant achievements, shining moments, will be recorded. All of this can be used to show off.

Oh, and it's worth mentioning that Facebook Battle.net is also bound to your personal Facebook number and has a "one-click sharing" function.

Think about it, the moment you are promoted to the strongest king, share it on your personal face with one click.

That feeling......

This is MOMOENT for you!

The more he looked at other people's record sharing, the more anxious Zhang Liang became, after a morning of fierce battles, someone had already been promoted to the golden rank!

Looking at it like this, it is estimated that tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, the first king will be born.

I'm lagging behind at the starting line.

"Brothers, I'll squint for a while, and call me after the genuine KEY is bought, I'm going to fight all night today. Zhang Liang gritted his teeth and said.

Anyway, this will not be able to log on to Facebook Battle.net, playing LAN cafes, it really feels boring.

Sometimes that's how it is, and when you don't have a choice, you don't pick and choose. But when better options emerge, people become picky.

When the Internet café purchases the genuine game KEY and activates it online, you can finally log in to Facebook Battle.com.

Zhang Liang went to the bathroom to wash his face with cold water, and became energetic, "Brothers, let's do it! Everyone won't go back tonight, we will be the first to rush to ...... The strongest king!"

............

Maybe it's because there are really a lot of CS players, maybe it's because Facebook Battle.net has done too much beyond everyone's imagination, or maybe it's the May Day holiday, and everyone is free.

But in any case, the data on the first day of Facebook Battle.net once again caused a sensation in the entire Internet industry.

The peak number of simultaneous online players is 11 million!

This data is outrageous.

Needless to say, there is no need to say anything about registered users, there is the foundation of Facebook, and the accounts of the Facebook system are universal, and the new projects launched by Facebook have never worried about the number of registered users.

But this number of simultaneous players is the most convincing!

The number of registered users can be adulterated, and there is also fraud in daily activity, but there is no way to fake this number of simultaneous online users, or the cost of fraud is too high.

On the first day of Facebook Battle.com's launch, this number has surpassed all gaming platforms, including Facebook Chess!

Even Effie and the others did not expect to achieve such exaggerated results.

"This ...... How do I feel a little dreamy, are there really so many gamers?"

"That's the charm of the game.,What boy doesn't like this kind of FPS game.,And the threshold for this game is not high.,No matter how high or low the skill is, you can have a lot of fun.。 "The technical manager is also a CS fanatic, and he understands the psychology of players.

When she came to her senses, Effie's eyes began to light up.

She knew that Facebook Battle.com would achieve good results, which was a powerful supplement to Facebook, but she didn't expect the results to be so good, even so good that it was against the sky!

Now she's going to re-evaluate the platform.

Maybe......

The real main business of Facebook Games is not the chess and card game platform at the beginning, and the focus has shifted to this kind of battle game and real online games!
