Chapter 137: The End of the Year
It's called the demo version, and there are naturally not many features provided, and many of them can only be watched but not played. Especially the dress-up function, only one or two costumes and dyeing are provided, which makes Li Hui very anxious, and wants to make the cute little fox even more cute.
originally thought that this was a dispensable design, just to make the pet more unique characteristics, but I didn't expect it to become the part that Li Hui focused on the most. It seems that this part needs to be strengthened in order to capture the hearts of more female players, but this kind of delicate work is not what Zhou Mo is good at, so it is better to leave it to serious people to have a headache.
"Okay Xiaohui, don't come to trouble me. This game will start beta soon, as long as it is a student of our school, you can apply for an activation code online in 335 dormitory with your student number. As for the opening hours, that's a serious decision, and it doesn't matter to me. ”
Zhou Mo's words made Li Hui pout, hooking people with a half-finished game, what an irresponsible cousin. However, at this time, she was not interested in arguing with Zhou Mo, so she directly logged on to the 335 dormitory network, ready to see what this game was like.
Entering the 3D platform, you can directly see the promotional airship of "Cute Pet Invincible" floating in the world of Manchurian, and the iconic fox is absolutely eye-catching. There are a lot of passers-by, gathered in groups, most of them are discussing this new online game.
"Damn, choose from three ways to play, and the dick is blowing up."
"Okay, no.,The download version has 2 G's big.,Can the phone play?"
"It seems to have been simplified a lot, and the mobile version is not so exaggerated, but it is the largest in the mobile online game, and I don't know how effective it is."
The closed beta is tragically not public. So everyone can only guess. The 335 dormitory also deliberately set aside a website dedicated to web games. Even if you don't download "Ah, My City", you can still play some 335 dormitory games through the website.
But to get the best gaming experience, you still have to download it. If nothing else, the pets on the phone are far less detailed than the performance on the computer, if your computer configuration is good enough, adjust the quality to the highest, then the scenery will be incomparably beautiful.
"Cute Pet Invincible" is a game that sells cuteness. So the scene is infinitely beautified, every scene is picturesque, plus countless cute pets playing there, it is definitely pleasing to the eye. Just some screenshots on the official website make female players fascinated.
However, there are also two kinds of paintings, one that is pleasing to the eye and the other that is more alternative. The map now has scenes like 'Graveyard', and pets are also produced in it, which are specifically available to players who like alternative pets. But female friends generally don't like it.
Male gamers aren't obsessed with appearances, they're more focused on gameplay. On this point, a promotional video left them speechless.
In this video, it is demonstrated that a master pet with two pets goes to brush a big monster, and the control is the main pet, and the two pets cooperate. But the strange thing is that one of the vice-pets always makes mistakes in battle, and is simply a scum teammate.
After a closer look, the character of this deputy pet is actually 'waste wood'. This name is a superb when you hear it, no wonder the bombs thrown out always float on your own people, blowing up your own people with a disgraced face, looking back and glaring angrily. And the old monster actually laughed and laughed, bringing a touch of hilarity to the battle.
Finally won the battle, and at this time, the ability of 'waste wood' finally came out, and its effect was actually a great increase in the probability of opening high-level materials. As long as you find the appropriate way to use it, no character is useless, this is the slogan of 335 dormitory.
Through the demo video, players who have a certain understanding of the game will know very well that this game does not focus on levels, and mainly relies on brushing materials to play equipment. And the most important thing is estimated to be the special effect 'XX Explosion' that will appear from time to time in the battle, this XX, is the character.
In addition to increasing the basic ability, the positive personality can also stimulate various characteristics, such as in the battle at the top, the main pet is obviously a melee pet, and the characters that can be seen are 'hot-blooded', 'motivated', 'unyielding', etc., once these characters are stimulated, the combat power will increase significantly.
Once in a crisis, the four fighting personalities of the main pet broke out at the same time, just like the transformation of the Super Saiyan, and he was so fierce that he saved the defeat alive.
Personality is very important, and it is just as essential for a good pet as it is in previous games. So everyone is thinking, how to refine the character?
There are many ways to do this, but only one is introduced in the video, and that is parenting. For example, if you want to produce a melee pet, you have to let it go to the warrior school, and use strict training to train a tenacious will, and when the willpower rises to a certain level and the pet grows to a certain level, you can use props to evolve.
After the pet evolves, it will develop its personality according to the pet's various nurturing abilities. As long as the value is reached, it will be successful for a while, and it will not use random values to smash you. An evolution will only produce one character, and the number of evolutions of each pet is different, so you need to calculate everything before you can raise it strategically.
However, in the process of raising pets, there will be some adverse reactions, and if you force too tightly, there will be resistance value, and if this value is too high, there will be some bad character, resulting in pet waste. However, there are some rebellious traits that can make a huge difference, and it depends on the player's choice.
There are good and bad personalities, just like the war pet with a super strong personality that appeared in the video, it is already at the level of a divine beast, because every character it carries is relatively advanced. The time and energy spent on raising such a pet is very scary for ordinary people.
There are also some character development methods that are not demonstrated in the video. For example, if you accidentally keep your pet wasted, or if you don't like a certain personality, then you need to use amnesia to forget the negative personality. This is the money pit, and it is sold in the mall.
In addition, there are memory chips that are extracted and implanted with personalities.,Run into the wild to catch monsters.,If you're lucky, you'll be able to catch a pet with a good personality.。 At this time, you can use the memory chip to extract the personality and then put it into your own pet. However, this method is probabilistic, and the pet disappears if it is unsuccessful. The implantation was unsuccessful, and the chip disappeared. Only the RMB warriors can afford to play.
And there is one thing to note. Opposing personalities cannot exist at the same time, for example, if you give a 'timid' pet 'brave', there must be only one between the two. Unless, your pet evolves to a half-human and gets the Inner Character Slot.
The inner personality is 'timid' and the outer personality is 'brave', this can exist, and after the two are mixed, there will be a compound personality 'bluff'. The same principle is the 'good' of the outer character and the 'evil' of the inner character. will compound into a 'black-bellied' character.
The complex parenting system has confused many players, but in order to breed JP pets, you have to look at a lot of tests, and at this time, the beta players have a certain advantage. When the official open beta is announced, they can save many unnecessary detours, and players who can't join the closed beta can only wait to see the strategy.
Some people have pets to fight, while others bring them to look good. Li Hui saw many female players gathered around to discuss which pet was more beautiful and what ways to make it more beautiful. The theme of this design is cute pets, and the effect is extraordinary after refining.
The game is available for download now, but unfortunately, only the people inside have the activation code. Although there is no online indication of who can participate in the closed beta. But according to the grapevine, everyone already knows the way. The university where the 335 dormitory is located has obtained the qualification for this internal test.
Li Hui happily ran to the "Cute Pet Invincible" store on Game Street, and after activating it there, she downloaded the mobile version. Then, the journey began without hesitation.
…………………
A few hours later, the train arrived, and Li Hui was still immersed in the game. Originally, she thought that the Thousand Heart Fox was cute enough, but she didn't want to enter the game before she found out that there were more cute pets waiting for her, such as 'Water Phantom Fish', 'Colorful Phoenix', etc., one by one beautiful.
Mobile players cannot enter the battlefield, but they can be assigned. Li Hui can give instructions to her pet in the task list, including capture, farming, and treasure hunting.
The duration of the quest is not fixed, and it mostly depends on your luck. It may take a long time to catch a pet, or it may be caught all at once. Once the instructions are given, control of the pet is temporarily transferred to the server, just like an idle game, and you can see your pet working in the field when you log in to the computer game. At this time, you can also choose to interrupt the on-hook operation and do it yourself.
To find a treasure, you need a treasure map, and this thing needs to be exchanged for a treasure map merchant. For example, if you are farming a certain piece of equipment, but a rare material has not been able to come out, resulting in the accumulation of too many other materials, you can transfer unnecessary materials to the material merchant in exchange for treasure map points, or sell them to other players.
Finding treasure requires pets to have at least adventure skills, and advanced treasure maps with more complex terrain require more, such as digging, swimming, and so on. Some pets are born with these skills, and if they don't have them, they can only run to the skill union in the novice village to learn them.
In the current closed beta period, the explosion rate is higher than average, so rare materials can still burst out as long as they are brushed a few more times. Although the character of 'waste material' is extremely practical in the demo, no one wants to waste combat power to practice this in the closed beta.
The explosion rate is already high, so it's a big deal to brush it twice, and it really doesn't feel good to bring a pig teammate. However, when the open beta is reached, the explosion rate has been greatly reduced, and it is estimated that a sub-pet with a 'waste material' personality will become the mainstream.
Serious people's work is not in place, and there are still people who don't know about the new game beta, and the activation code is their own student number. Li Hui also deliberately called her classmates and shouted at her to prepare to form a cute pet union, so she didn't fight, and she specialized in keeping her good-looking.
Unfortunately, this wish is probably going to be frustrated.
The best-looking equipment in online games is often the most advanced, and if you want to look good, you really have to brush up on high-level equipment, otherwise you will always have that virtue in cloth and armor.
"I said, when you get to the station, you can't get off the train?"
Li Hui was already addicted, Zhou Mo could only smile bitterly to help her carry her luggage, and she had to pull her all the way, and the girl in the province accidentally walked up the lane.
The power of this game seems to be quite great.
……………………
Serious people are a little depressed, everyone has to go home at the end of the year, and it was at this time that Zhou Mo took out this game, and named him to do a test in the school first, which made him very passive.
Although there has been a little news at the school gate to promote "Cute Pet Invincible", the university has a total of 3 districts and 9 school gates. How could it be possible to grasp it all. That's it. On the first day, there were not many people online to test "Cute Pet Invincible". Most of them are still logged in by mobile phones.
These bastards all know that they are the busiest at the end of the year, so they run away like a fart as soon as the school is over. Serious people are already busy, even if they have hired a personal affairs manager or a lot of things, sometimes I really feel that it was a wrong decision to take a temporary leave of absence.
"Mozi, the number of people is too small, do you want to expand the scope of the internal test. I see that there are a lot of people on the forum who are asking for a few more closed beta numbers, but there are not many people anyway. Why don't you just open a few more? ”
Serious people complained about their grievances, which made Zhou Mo very incomprehensible. Look at Li Hui's crazy appearance, it doesn't look like she is unpopular, how can there be fewer people? But since serious people say so, there will definitely not be too many, so just let more people go.
Although farmers generally don't have any bugs, the internal test is not just about finding bugs, another important purpose of it is to test the explosion rate, and the high quality flood equipment is worthless, which makes a game that mainly relies on equipment not playable; The explosion rate is low, and the dead brush can't come out. It's also easy for people to give up, and now not many people can tolerate the kind of perverted explosion rate of "Legend" at the beginning.
"Okay. You do some lottery games on the forum, or other activities, and then release 2,000 closed beta accounts. ”
The serious person took the instruction and expanded the account to be released, and it didn't take long for it to be snatched up by the surging crowd, which made the serious person depressed. It's strange.,It's deserted inside the game.,It's crazy outside the game.,Someone shouted out to use the game point to ask for the internal test number.。
After a few more days, the reason was finally figured out. The publicity is not in place, and most of the people in the school don't know the news of the internal test of "Cute Pet Invincible", and it wasn't until word of mouth among classmates in the past two days that they knew about it, and then they immediately ran over.
In this way, serious people were resented to death by a bunch of old classmates, especially those who were very keen on games. It's a dereliction of duty to make such a good game so that few people know it. You see, after two days of entering the game, everyone else has come out with third-level equipment, and Lao Tzu's first-level equipment has not been completed, so he must be compensated.
I still have to compensate for a long time.,Anyway, it's an internal test.,Serious people don't care about stuffing them with a few small gift bags.,And then depressed to meet the year-end money-giving activity.。
335 dormitory company is also a big company in this animation base.,At the end of the year, there are always some big activities.,And then all kinds of year-end bonuses or something.。 Originally, Zhou Mo was supposed to preside over it personally, but this kid ran faster than a rabbit, so this matter fell on a serious person.
This year's biggest head is the stand-alone game department, and several major incomes are recorded on stand-alone machines, so these people's year-end bonuses are the thickest, and they are not happy one by one, which also makes others jealous.
The online game department can only sigh that "Cute Pet Invincible" came too late, and if it came out half a year earlier, it would not let the stand-alone department grab the jackpot. However, the performance of "Hundred Schools" is not bad, it was once popular after the partition, and consumption increased greatly, and they have also gained something.
The most aggrieved is the animation department, and there is a "Elemental War", although it is starting to become popular, but the animation itself really didn't make a few dollars, and it all relied on image authorization to get some back. It's still the stage of branding, and if you want to really start making a big profit, you have to wait for next year's highlight - "Adventure in the Element Country" to come out, and then you will have the capital.
Of course, there are two other serious people who need to be comforted.
Zhou Mo, this kid, has never taken these two people to heart, and he didn't take the opportunity to push it after the last movie screening, maybe he will be popular now. The poor two girls still insist on practicing singing and dancing every day, believing that sooner or later there will be a day when they will come out.
This inspirational serious person shed a little tears, and while comforting the two, he also secretly made up his mind that next year he would focus part of his work on his artists no matter what. Anyway, the company's business is thriving now, and it has the strength to take care of these people.
The most important thing is Zhou Mo, as long as this kid is willing to contribute a few songs, these two little girls will already open up the situation. Next year, I will win another award, my reputation will be even louder, and it will not be too difficult to push two little stars.
"Niu Lao, don't worry, Xu Jing and Bai Zhi are both my classmates, and no one will pit them. Next year, I will definitely let Zhou Mo's kid obediently come up with a few passable songs and make them popular in one fell swoop! ”
Niu Lao is the agent introduced by Li Xiangkou, and it is said that he has a set, but he doesn't seem to have seen him arrange affairs, but he has been staring at the two of them practicing singing and dancing, so he forgot about it.
Hearing the assurance of a serious person, Niu Lao smiled and said: "Sharpen the knife and don't cut the wood, these two babies have a good foundation, and they can be made into a tool by carving." Why do you come out so early, it's a good thing to practice more, I think after the second half of next year, it will be the best state for their debut. ”
So that's the case, serious people who don't understand this line can only give a thumbs up, and then the affairs of the brokerage department will be handed over to Niu Lao to do. When the time is right, a report comes up, asking for money for money, and songs for songs, all of which are your own family members, and you can't lose money.
After the New Year's party, basically the people of the company also left one after another. Serious people issued a few gift slips and gave them to several game development teams who signed contracts with the 335 dormitory, which can be regarded as a contact with feelings, and this year's work is all completed.
Next year, everything will be better! (To be continued......)
