Chapter 667: The Titan (7)

1 trillion, is there already so much? To tell the truth, Yang Yiwei has not paid attention to this matter for a long time, hearing this reporter's words, Yang Yiwei was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said helplessly: "This friend, to be honest, now even I don't know how much money the Xingdao Xing Fall Group has, and the financial statistics of the entire Xing Fall Group are probably only known to the group's financial director, so I definitely can't answer your question, but if it is 1 trillion US dollars, I think there should be, as far as the Star Fall Group's current industry in Madagascar, I think it's at least $500 billion. ”

After answering this reporter's question, Yang Yiwei directly clicked on the next person, this time this reporter is a reporter from a game media, after standing up, the reporter directly asked: "Hello Mr. Yang, the Star Fall Group has not announced the charging model of the Titan Game, and the charging model was not announced until yesterday, it can be said that this charging model is beyond everyone's expectations, we have thought of the free model, but we thought of it for free, and then the props mall charges, but I didn't expect the Star Fall Group to be completely free, Neither time nor props are charged, I don't know what Mr. Yang thinks? Without revenue, can the game continue to operate, and where do such high operating expenses come from? Xie Lu Xie. ”

This reporter asked all the questions that the players were concerned about, and the questions of those people before were not what the players cared about at all, hearing this reporter's question, Yang Yiwei smiled slightly, and then thought about it and said, Regarding advertising with other companies, Yang Yiwei is not going to announce it today, so he can only find another excuse. After thinking about it, Yang Yiwei said with a smile: "This, it's a little ashamed to say. There will be no problems with the operation of the game, which everyone can rest assured, as for the completely free model. ”

"Speaking of which, I want you to see something, and I'll tell you why after reading these materials." With Yang Yiwei's words, the lights at the press conference dimmed, and then the screen behind Yang Yiwei lit up, and soon the first pattern lit up, but all the reporters found it. This picture is a screenshot of the above picture on the Starfall Group forum, which is a suggestion that a player asks the Starfall Group to ensure that its company does not lose money, and then charge for time.

The rest of the games are pretty much the same, mostly similar, and the comments made by these players are in the languages of each country. There are Chinese, European and American ones, etc. Probably after putting a dozen. Yang Yiwei asked people to turn off the screen behind him, and then said seriously into the microphone: "I know that there are many countries in the world at this time, and it is still early in the morning, but I believe that there are also many players in these countries who are waiting to see the press conference of the Starfall Group." Many journalist friends may not be able to figure out what I want to do to intercept the opinions expressed by these players in the forum, and I can tell you a statistic. ”

With Yang Yiwei's words, the screen at the back directly switched to the official forum of Titan of Starfall Group, and in this forum. The top post is a post that a player said, in order to ensure that the Starfall Group operates Titans for no reason, and supports the Starfall Group's time charge. "This post is what I want to tell you, and this post is written in more than a dozen languages. There are currently 55 million replies to this post, and among the 55 million replies, a total of 42 million different players are from different players, in other words, there are 4,200 players in the Starfall Group who support the Starfall Group's time fee and are willing to pay for it. What does this mean? According to the charging model of the World of Warcraft, it is about 1 dollar equivalent to 12 hours. There are 42 million players, with an average of 10 hours per player per day, which is about $30 per person a month. ”

"I don't need to calculate this number, you can calculate that the profit of the Starfall Group is about $1.2 billion every month, and $14 billion a year, and if the Starfall Group charges for time, will the number of players be 42 million? No, I believe that it will be far beyond this number, I can tell you here that at present, the registered users of Titan have reached 210 million users, I don't know how many users will stay if the time is charged, but this number may be double the 42 million players, what does this mean? Yang Yiwei glanced at the entire venue lightly.

All the reporters were thoughtful, but everyone was a little confused, and they didn't know what Yang Yiwei wanted to express, "This shows that our players are cute!" Our player users are very satisfied! They just want someone to make them a game that makes them invest their energy and is very fun, and they're willing to pay a part of that price as long as they meet those standards. And now the game market, to be honest, I'm disappointed, maybe it will be better abroad, but the domestic ...... The entire gaming market is filled with a fast-food culture. A few months of research and development time, then direct testing, and then the prop mall charges, and then an average of one or two weeks to open an interest, make enough money, in terms of the balance of the game and so on, there is no effort at all, a rich player can abuse dozens of ordinary players alone. ”

With Yang Yiwei's words, the reporters below immediately became a little surprised, Yang Yiwei is going to charge for props! "I can tell you very bluntly here, I was also a loyal gamer back then, but unfortunately, after spending the most glorious and serious years of developing games in the Chinese game industry, all game companies began to become impetuous, and made money, I once scolded a lot of game companies in college, none of the games developed are really for people to play, they are all for people to make money, and the cost of props is what I hate the most!"

"So, when the Titan charging model, they also said that the prop charge is not suitable for us, because the personal strength in the Titan mainly depends on the skill of the gamer, of course, the equipment is one thing, but the opportunity to obtain the equipment is equal for all players, and it will not be directly purchased in the prop store, therefore, I think, it is completely free, maybe the Starfall Group will find a new charging model in the Titan, but for all ordinary players, as long as you want, You can play without spending a penny and forever. And you won't lag behind any other player with equipment or anything. ”

"I know that these players are cute, just like me back then, I just want a fun game, which can be used as a platform for them to communicate, I didn't have the ability to forget it before, but now that I have the ability, I want to complete my dream back then, as for the operation problem, Titan will not lose money, which everyone can rest assured. As for how it works, I'm sorry, but forgive me for selling it, it's a company secret at the moment, but I can tell you. This charging model has nothing to do with players. Yang Yiwei's voice fell. Immediately there was a round of applause.

In particular, the applause from the gaming media was the most enthusiastic. Because these game media reporters are not very old, they have naturally gone through the most glorious years of the game, especially Chinese game reporters can understand the helplessness in Yang Yiwei's words. Just like Yang Yiwei said, in the current domestic game market, in addition to one or two old games, can other games still be played? Those so-called games that are developed for three years, five years, and ten years. It's all.

The R&D cycle of each game will not exceed one year, and it belongs to the kind of fast food R&D, the games launched by fast food, and even many companies are a model. At most, the NPC, map, and profession will be renamed, and the rest of the data will not be changed at all, and even the charging mode will be the same.

These players who saw Yang Yiwei speaking in front of the computer, immediately had a feeling of confidant, God knows how depressed they usually play when they play, but there was no good game before, and now this game is finally available, many people have not played Titan, but after watching Yang Yiwei's press conference, players are ready to play Titan, the reason is very simple, this game is completely free, which game can do it?

Indeed, there are a lot of free games, but those free games are nothing more than ordinary players playing with those rich players, or being played, after all, rich people are only a very small part, no one wants to be abused, but Titans are different, completely free, not to mention, and there is no perverted mall, even if there is no difference between rich and unrich people, of course, rich people may be able to spend money directly to buy game currency outside the game, and you can buy equipment or something inside, but it doesn't matter.

The chances of everyone getting equipment and so on are the same.,Rich people don't have to get equipment by themselves.,Someone gave him equipment.,But other players' equipment and their update speed is a little slower.,But at least it's not slow.,It's not like some games.,You can't get the best weapons through normal channels at all.,Only the game's mall has it.。

And those game manufacturers who watched Yang Yiwei's press conference just had an indescribable depression, damn, can we be blamed for this? That's how everyone plays, and we want to study the game well, but the company is always going to grow, right? Not every company is Blizzard, and not every company has that high R&D capabilities. And there are so many companies, there are only a few players, and in order to snatch players, the game update speed is naturally faster.

Depend on! These game manufacturers can only be depressed, the problem is that they haven't refuted it yet, how to refute it? People even do something completely free, and it's useless to refute it. The press conference is basically over, and the Starfall Group obviously has a charging method, but Yang Yiwei didn't say what this charging method is, and no one else can think of it, it's definitely not a prop mall or something.

Anyway, didn't Yang Yiwei say it? Titans don't charge from players, that is to say, this charging model is not from players, the question is, in addition to players, isn't it NPC in the game? Do you want to collect it from NPCs? All the media are a little confused, but the Starfall Group doesn't say it, and other companies can't think of it, and now this follow-up model is only known to Blizzard's development team and the relevant personnel of the Starfall Group, and of course, Bill Gates also knows it.

The press conference of the Star Fall Group, except for Yang Yiwei's statement, was a little surprising, but it was expected, anyway, Yang Yiwei had never played cards according to common sense at all, such a statement is also in line with Yang Yiwei's style, no matter what other game companies think, Yang Yiwei doesn't have to think about their ideas at all, and the public beta of the Titan is going on as usual. At 8 o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, the exclusive Internet café of the Starfall Group was already full of players.

It has become a gathering place for die-hard fans, the cost of Internet access here is not high, but so many computers can still be full of players every day, although Shao Yang's family has bought a new computer, but Shao Yang still came to the Internet café today, ready for everyone to level up and do activities together. Leveling in Titans is not quite the same as in other games, and the level is not particularly important, but players who are used to leveling still need to level up.

What's more, it seems that the first player to reach a certain level will be burned into the Doomsday Record, and the things in the Doomsday Record will never be eliminated, starting from the open beta, that is, no matter how many new players come in the future, they will see your name, and this glory alone makes many players rush to it. Although the level here is not important, it will definitely be full of upgrade maniacs.

This is full of attraction to all players, and Shao Yang is naturally no exception, although Shao Yang entered the Doomsday Glory Record because of the first job change, but because it is a closed beta, all the data must be cleared, and after the public beta, the Doomsday Glory Record will not be retained, but now Shaoyang's ID Liu Suifeng is also known by many players, and he is also a celebrity on the forum.

So when the game opens up, there are bound to be many players who have to rush to the level. The novice area is still like that, Shaoyang They test the most is the novice area, and they are naturally very familiar with the novice area, so after entering the game, Shaoyang and they even created characters quickly, directly using the camera to scan their own image, and then directly created according to their real image.

As a man and not a person who can't be seen, everything is very important in opening a new area, so naturally he has no time to pinch people, so it is better to use his true image, anyway, Shao Yang feels that he looks good. After entering the game, several people immediately formed a team and received the novice equipment, Shao Yang quickly went to do the job transfer task, leaving his name on the Doomsday Glory Record first.
