Chapter 105: Competitor Reaction

Not only did Tian Fuzhou not understand the idea of the company's founder. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The rest of the game companies, which are always paying attention to the trend of the game market, also can't figure out the routine of Xingling Network.

Shanda Group has a number of subsidiaries such as Shanda Network and Shanda Games. Among them, Shanda Games is currently one of the top game giants in the Chinese game market, with extremely strong marketing channels and publicity networks, and its annual revenue accounts for more than 70% of the entire group.

Zhou Bai, who is just over 30 years old, is the head of Shanda's network planning department, and his curiosity about the recent rise of "Elven Front" is both out of interest and research on competitors.

The next big strategy for Shanda Games is a lightweight browser game. It is aimed at those who don't have much time to play terminal games, such as office white-collar workers, and a small number of private game enthusiasts.

Shanda Games was originally quite vacillating about whether to go all-in on browser games, but the sudden rise of Elf Fronts showed them an extremely successful standard case.

As the head of the planning department, Zhou Bai must thoroughly study the reasons for the success of this game, and then come up with a perfect plan that can replicate this success. He lit a hibiscus king sandwiched between his index and middle fingers, and slid the mouse with his right hand to open the official website of the elven front.

As soon as he saw the content of the page, he immediately came to his senses, carefully looked at the dynamic effects and pictures on the page, as well as the overall design style, and nodded and praised: "The art design of this official website ...... The standard is good! ”

It's not like a fledgling small business.

In many cases, from the style of a website, you can roughly see the connotation and corporate culture of a company. For example, Shanda itself has listed many operating game names, with a cool-colored design, and at a glance it is clear that this is a large enterprise with strong strength and interests first.

And the official website of Xingling Network made Zhou Bai feel a hint of unexpected surprise.

He is not a professional graphic designer, which does not mean that he does not have a basic aesthetic. The first impression of Zhou Bai on the official website of Xingling Network is exquisite, exquisite to the extreme, dazzling, and it is difficult to impose words such as ordinary, simple, and boring.

This delicacy does not show off 3D technology, and it is even difficult to find traces of three-dimensionality. The entire web page is completely flat, looking like a thin piece of paper. The perfect combination of patterns and words on the drawing paper firmly grasps the eyeballs of the watcher, making it difficult to take your eyes off at first glance, and any part of the drawing is comparable to the top quality illustration when taken alone.

It's like the visual pleasure of art.

Zhou Bai's faint contempt for the Star Spirit Network in his heart completely disappeared, and was replaced by a strong interest.

He shifted his posture, leaned forward slightly, and his eyes carefully captured the information on the web page, not missing a single detail.

The opening information entered his sight -

97 servers, bright jewels, officially opened at 9:00 this morning!

Zhou Bai was stunned for a second, and exclaimed: "97 Bright Jewels? How long did it take to get to the 97th server? What is this company thinking! Surprised, he clicked on the server login button to enter the game screen.

According to common sense, it is not suitable for online games to open too many servers, which will cause a large number of players to divert the effect, making it difficult for players on a unified server to form a complete set of economic ecosystems, and the ultimate consequence is that the game life is greatly reduced.

In order to avoid ghost servers, where the number of players on some servers is so scarce that it affects the experience, operators often adopt the practice of merging servers, combining player profiles from two or more different servers into the same server.

And "Elf Front" has only been in operation for more than a month, and 97 official servers have been activated, which is equivalent to an average of 3 servers open to players every day.

What speed is this......

"Do you also pursue the speed of deep city when making games?" Zhou Bai couldn't figure it out.

When he enters the game screen, the first beginner's guide map comes into view.

The high-configuration computer console actually had a brief lag at the moment of loading the screen, and then the dense player characters that occupied almost the entire screen appeared in the map, and the chat box in the lower left corner refreshed wildly at the speed of a waterfall, and it was impossible to even read a complete sentence.

The system prompt pops up in time: "There are too many online players on the current map, and the intelligent blocking function will be automatically turned on." ”

Zhou Bai: "......"

Calming down, he opened a word document as a temporary recording tool, and then began to seriously experience the content of the game "Elven Front". The novice bootstrap is very intimate, whenever he has a little doubt about the game setting, the novice boot will always appear at the right time, and then help Zhou Bai solve the problem.

The task system, which is designed according to theories such as psychology and mood swing curves, amplifies the fun of the game brought by numerical improvement.

Random items, dungeon rewards, and level increases, these elements are perfectly combined, so that players will not feel the stagnation of the game content or the loss of freshness, but will be more full of anticipation for the next game content.

As a game operator, Zhou Bai quickly became comfortable with the operation and players.

The purple hero card "Potions Master Lorian" randomly given by the newbie has the characteristic skill of increasing the number of explosive potions by 300%, Zhou Bai inquired about the details, and immediately changed his route to the potion genre, and among the many plot copies, he chose the "Crazy Alchemy Laboratory" copy as the first plot line.

He wants to get the "Aya the Alchemist Hirano" hero card, which is also of purple quality. This hero card uses a variety of throwing potions as the main means of attack, but the damage of the potion is not very high, and few people will choose this hero card.

To Zhou Bai's disappointment, the god of luck did not befall him. After clearing the first story mission, instead of obtaining the purple quality "Aya the Alchemist Hirano", he has a normal green card - "Duke Yuris (Pseudo)".

This card is very unpopular, and the trait skill is a garbage skill of "Potion Attack +1".

Zhou Bai's eyes lit up.

Where is this garbage green card skill, if it is combined with Potions Master Loriam, this is a magic skill at all! Together, the two are equivalent to a 600% increase in flask damage!

Zhou Bai sighed in surprise: "This is really another village!" ”

He had previously investigated that the hero cards dropped in the story dungeon were completely random, and he got better hero combinations by mistake.

"Ministry, minister, you're also playing this game......"

Xiao Sun, the responsible planner, took a thick stack of planning cases that needed Zhou Bai's eyes, and caught a glimpse of the content on Zhou Bai's computer screen.

"Huh? Yes! Zhou Bai didn't react for a while.

He wondered, "Didn't you ask you to come back to me in three hours, at three o'clock in the afternoon?" As he spoke, Zhou Bai glanced at the time in the lower right corner of the computer screen, which showed 15:07.

Zhou Bai was stunned, and naturally said to himself: "How did time pass so quickly......

Three hours later, the word that can be opened on the left side of the computer screen is still blank.

He completely understands that the success of "Elf Front" is really not accidental!
