Chapter 683: Accumulate and catch up
At the beginning of the listing, Counter-Strike games were crushed by StarCraft so strongly, in fact, Wu Tao felt more pressure than anyone else.
But when he found that the number of registered users in Huaxia had increased dramatically, and even exceeded the registered scale of StarCraft for a time, he was finally a little relieved.
In addition to the factor of free drainage, such a large-scale user growth can at least show that the game itself is not bad and attractive enough.
It's the foundation of a game.
With this, Wu Tao was also relieved.
More than four days after its release, StarCraft's game sales and registered user growth began to stabilize.
It will maintain sales of about 10,000 units per day and increase the number of registered users by 20,000 per day.
If this trend continues, it will only take three months for StarCraft to surpass 1 million sales.
That's definitely platinum-level sales.
Looking at the other party's data, Shi Qianxue couldn't help but sigh, "Boss, when will our 1 million sets be sold out!
Shi Qianxue is right, Wu Tao is indeed dumbfounded.
But he was dumbfounded, not because he was worried that the game would not sell, but because he found that the number of registered users of Huaxia Battle.net began to grow explosively.
Early this morning, the number of registered users in China exceeded 400,000.
Wu Tao originally thought that after the initial period of rapid growth, his game would inevitably have a period of steady growth like StarCraft.
In other words, the data will still rise, but there will not be much span and surprises.
But I never expected that in just half a day, the scale of registered users in Huaxia has crossed the 500,000 mark.
This growth trend is really a bit fascinating.
Shi Qianxue saw him staring at the data of free registered users in Huaxia, and couldn't help but say: "I don't know how much paid conversion rate that data can have." No matter how fast it rises, the gold content is not as good as StarCraft's daily growth of 20,000. ”
"This may not be!" Wu Tao, who had been silent, retorted rarely: "Go and transfer the VIP registered user data online today, and notify Wu Ke in addition, so that he can count the number of user registrations on the domestic battle network, the number of online users every day, and the login rate." ”
Although she didn't know what Wu Tao wanted these data for, Shi Qianxue still honestly turned around and went to supervise it.
A moment later, Shi Qianxue took two fax documents and returned.
Wu Tao took it and took a look, his eyes suddenly lit up, he stood up on the ground, startled Shi Qianxue, stroked his chest and said with palpitations: "You scared me to death, why are you so excited?"
"Haha, because you are going to marry a rich and handsome man and reach the pinnacle of life!" Wu Tao sold with interest.
Shi Qianxue saw his happy look, and immediately crossed Xiao Man's waist, "It sounds like a good thing, but if you can't say that you are ugly, don't blame me for not recognizing you as a cousin!"
This threat, it seems, is not lethal?
However, Wu Tao didn't bother to care, but pointed to the fax documents and the data on the computer screen and said, "Come and take a look, what can you find?"
After such a reminder, Shi Qianxue saw the difference at a glance.
"Although the number of VIP registered users is not as high as StarCraft's, the customer retention rate and online activity are 10% higher than theirs. ”
"What else?" Wu Tao asked.
Shi Qianxue straightened the hair hanging down from her sideburns and said: "The online statistics in Huaxia are similar to our VIP data, which means that the paid conversion rate in Huaxia should be much higher than that of regular games." But what does this mean?"
Wu Tao stood up and said: "This shows that our Counter-Strike game itself is not bad, and its commercial potential has not yet been fully released." I can even boldly speculate that our daily sales data should surpass StarCraft in the near future. As for the total sales volume and registration scale, even if they can't catch up with each other, at least they will not be far behind. ”
"This ...... How is this possible?" Despite the previous data, Shi Qianxue was still a little incredulous when she heard this conclusion at first glance.
Not only that, but even Qiu Xiaotian, who had just entered the door, felt that it was a fantasy when he heard it.
"Boss, are you too optimistic?"
Wu Tao waved his hand, "I made such a speculation, in fact, there are traces to follow." Come and see!"
"Since the release of Counter-Strike, except for a small explosion of sales on the second day, the rest of the time has actually grown slowly. Even though StarCraft sales have leveled off today, our numbers are still growing. ”
"That's right!" Qiu Xiaotian and Shi Qianxue nodded in unison.
Wu Tao continued: "The second point, judging from the discussion heat of the forum, the number of posts and replies to Counter-Strike has been gradually increasing in the past few days. From less than 10 percent on the first day, it has reached 35 percent today!"
“...... Even if we exclude the botnets we hire, this number continues to grow. And I found that most of the new posts here are from local Chinese netizens and game lovers. ”
“...... The sum of these factors is enough to show that the potential of Counter-Strike is gradually being unleashed. As a new company and new product, word of mouth is to be accumulated slowly, we need just patience and time!"
After Wu Tao's analysis in such a simple way, the two of them had nothing to say.
Qiu Xiaotian immediately rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "If that's the case, it's great!"
Not only was he excited, but even Shi Qianxue was also excited.
As if to confirm Wu Tao's analysis, three days later, a week after the game's release, Counter-Strike's daily sales and registered user growth both surpassed StarCraft, which had long stabilized.
This means that the total sales volume and total registered user scale data have reached the level of StarCraft, and there is a glimmer of possibility.
It's just that the gap in the early stage is too large, and it will take a lot of time to catch up with the gap.
Fortunately, today's Tianxing Game Company has enough patience and self-confidence up and down.
Because of such an achievement, it is already a great honor for a new game company that is up-and-coming.
As for catching up with and surpassing an established game company like Blizzard Entertainment, it is equivalent to beating a rabbit in the grass, and it is naturally best to catch up, even if you can't catch up, everyone will not be too disappointed and depressed.
After all, it is a long time coming, and the first shot can achieve such an effect, which is far beyond expectations.
Just when everyone was secretly relieved, Wu Tao did not relax in the slightest.
In his opinion, Counter-Strike has a lower game threshold and higher playability than StarCraft. It's as entertaining and fun as a team and on the web.
So there's no reason it's worse than StarCraft.
With such thoughts, Wu Tao did not rush to open champagne to celebrate, but continued to pay attention and wait silently......
