Chapter 108: Brush up on equipment all night
Lindy's concern was completely necessary, and when Lindy turned on her phone the next day, she found that there were more than forty missed calls.
Among them, Bai Mengqi fought twenty.
In addition to the friends around me, in the game forum, the posts are flying.
"Damn,1 hasn't come out yet.,It's out of 2's CG!Anyway, 2's CG is even more awesome.,It seems like there's more than one boss.,Those three demon brothers look so awesome.,Didn't you see Baal kill people with magic? ”
"Why are you doing so much CG? Hurry up and get out of the game! Lao Tzu has already swiped the page dozens of times in the morning, why can't the game be downloaded yet?"
"Didn't someone say yesterday that there was a new game last night?
"I don't know how much these two games cost?, Lao Tzu's living expenses are going to be urgent this month. ”
"The person in charge of the new world! If you don't play the game again, thousands of our players will really have to send blades. Brothers, go up to me and let the officials see it. ”
Seeing the forum that was already popular early in the morning, Lindy nodded slightly, and the market warm-up seemed to have come out.
It's okay to hang your appetite, but if you hang too much, it's not good to make the player really disgusted.
At seven o'clock that night, the two games were officially launched.
The price of Diablo is not high, 300 yuan, and the price of Diablo 2 is 380 yuan. Of course, the "not high" here is for the new world.
A few minutes before the game was launched, Lindy sent a text message to her friends as a notification, which was considered to make up for the loss of the previous release of pigeons.
After the warm-up of the game CG, after the game was launched, the number of downloads exploded immediately.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Diablo 1's downloads exceeded 400,000, and Diablo 2's download performance was much worse than Diablo 1's, 80,000.
This situation is actually very easy to understand, think about it from another perspective, if Lindy is a player himself, if Diablo 1 and Diablo 2 are online at the same time, then he must also play Diablo 1 first, and then consider whether to download Diablo 2 according to the performance of Diablo 1.
Of course, Lindy is still confident in the performance of Diablo 1.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Diablo 1 was downloaded 1.13 million times, and Diablo 2 was downloaded more than 420,000 times.
At 10 o'clock in the evening, the number of downloads of Diablo 1 reached 1.86 million, and the number of downloads of Diablo 2 exceeded 700,000.
At twelve o'clock in the evening, Lindy opened the website backend again.
After five hours, Diablo 1 had 4.03 million downloads and Diablo 2 had 1.33 million downloads.
In five hours, Lindy's income from the Dark series alone was 1.7 billion.
Lindy believes that the Dark series will definitely break out longer than Contra.
Regarding the download difference between the two versions, Lindy is not only worried, but the current state is exactly what Lindy wants to see.
Now players don't know that although Diablo 2 is a sequel to the continuation of the background story of Diablo 1 in terms of the main plot, however, the main plot of Diablo 2 itself is also relatively independent and complete, in other words, playing Diablo 2 alone does not have much impact on the game.
Of course, it is impossible for Lindy to tell players about this situation in advance now, and in these two series, in fact, Lindy is still more worried about the sales of Diablo 1.
You know, in fact, in the Diablo series, Diablo 2 is the version that really pushes Diablo to the altar.
"1.7 billion in 5 hours, so calculated, today's income should be more than 2 billion. In the face of such a sales situation, Lindy also seemed extremely relaxed.
"Hey, if there's Diablo Three, I'd love to play it, but it seems that the system hasn't unlocked the online game yet. Lindy shook his head, he had been in this world for so long, and he rarely played games himself.
No way, the current games are indeed classics, but for Lindy, it really doesn't arouse much interest. He'd played it many times before.
"There are too few downloads of CS now, only 400,000 a day, but fortunately, it is almost the same now, and there are about 2 million more downloads to complete the five-star stage, and you can unlock new games after five or six days. "Lindy was still very curious about the new game.
What kind of game is it that can rank behind Diablo?
Lindy launched Diablo in one sentence, and then went forward to the new game with great interest.
He also doesn't consider the mood of the majority of players at this time.
Lin Di notified Zhu Liang in advance before launching the new game, and Zhu Liang notified his colleagues Li Xiang and Qin Fen as soon as possible.
Diablo 1 and 2, he downloaded them as soon as possible, 680 yuan, which is not much scary for Qin Fen, who has a worry-free life.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry. Qin Fen looked at the installation progress bar, one leg shook rapidly, and his mouth was repeated.
At the same time, Li Xiang was also anxiously waiting for the installation of Diablo 2 at home, he also bought 1 and 2, but why install 2 first? Because everyone else must play 1 first, then he can be the first person to play 2 first.
Finally waited for the game to be installed, and Li Xiang couldn't wait to enter the game.
Diablo 2 has CG at the beginning.,I felt the shock of the game's CG again.,The game entered the character selection screen.。
After CG, it's the login screen of the game, Li Xiang has also played Fairy Sword, and soon chose "single player".
"Holy, so many characters?"
When creating the character, Li Xiang was already shocked by the characters of Barbarian, Mage, Druid, Assassin, Amazon, Necromancer, and Paladin.
When playing CS at the beginning, players had to hesitate for a long time when choosing a role, so you can imagine how entangled players are in the face of these very different characters in the dark.
read the character introduction word by word, and in the end, Li Xiang chose a female mage wearing a green shirt and holding a magic staff.
"This one looks better. Mage: Can you do magic?"
Finally able to enter the game, Li Xiang, who had finished choosing the role, was relieved.
Next to a man in black, an elliptical light gate flashed, and the door of the dark world officially opened to Li Xiang.
And as soon as this door opened, it was not closed for a night.
The next morning, Li Xiang's eyes were red, but the whole person was extremely excited.
"Dark gold equipment! It turned out to be dark gold equipment! Damn, it's so cool! What attributes! All skills plus 1! I'm rubbing! Hahahaha, I'm rich. ”
Lindy has long said that a large part of the reason why games are attractive is the sense of achievement, and now, Li Xiang is the time when the sense of accomplishment is bursting.
The next day, when Lindy sat in front of the computer and looked at a large number of posts in the comment area discussing characters, adding points, or posting equipment, he smiled slightly.
In the past, when I played Dark, several classmates often discussed these things, but now that tens of thousands of people are discussing together, this meeting is different.
"Necromancers are ruthless, look at my skeleton legions. ”
"Does anyone play Barbarian?
"Is it better for a mage to learn ice or fire? ”
"After playing all night, I brushed Arcana's Death Stick, Arcana's head, and Arcana's symbols, who knows where Arcana's flesh and blood are hit?"
The Arcana suit is a set that is relatively easy to get in the early stage of Diablo 2, and the attributes of the suit are actually not very strong, of course, for players who discover such a thing as a "suit" for the first time, the attraction is really huge.
You can hit three pieces in one night, which is actually very good for a novice, so it's no wonder that his post was quickly watched.
Having said that, brushing up on equipment all night, Lindy really misses this feeling a little.
Looking at the lively comment area, players are concentrating on studying various strategies for the dark.
"At least no one is sending me blades anymore. Lindy was finally much more down-to-earth.
