Chapter 375: Let's take a look at Mr. Yang's signature photo
Other game companies want to do a campaign, especially about this kind of welfare activity, they have to consider various data, such as the growth of revenue ratio, and player retention.
And these activities are basically launched when the game is not fast or facing competitors, so as to stabilize the number of players in the game.
After all, there are too many events, and players will have less content in the game, which will lead to online decline.
There is actually such a trend in "BioChem", of course, this trend is for players with PVE content, they only play PVE dungeons and brushes all kinds of brushes, but they have no interest in various entertainment modes and zombie modes.
When a version of the content copy is opened, most of them will AFK for a period of time, and ordinary game companies are eager to trap all players in the game day and night.
So it often happens that they rarely do activities, or do activities and give out benefits, as if they want to pay players.
Under the leadership of Yang Chen, Nebulas Games, including his operation team, adheres to another concept.
Similar to the operation concept called "FF14" in the dream memory, players do not need to clock in and log in every day like going to work, and all kinds of liver daily life can keep up with the rhythm and progress of the version.
Even if you put it down for a long time and return to the game again, you will be able to get through the content of the big version at once.
And the kind of Liver Emperor players who like to brush and brush, will also add a lot of similar appearance-style props in the game, and various achievement props to reward, so that they have enough action to brush.

In the project room of Nebula Games, Yang Chen and Wang Ye discussed how to solve the performance problem of "Silent Hill" on the VR platform.
On the other hand, when Yang Chen announced the news of "Torture and Killing the Original Form" on the official blog, the game circle, especially the manufacturers that are also going to launch games in the same period, also expressed concern.
Although it is not a Nebula game or developed by Yang Chen, Lin Jiayi is not without any skills.
For example, the original "Resident Evil 2" and "Assassin's Creed" can see his skills.
But attention is attention, they can't do anything, after all, Nebula Games is not a small business, some off-the-market tricks are not understood, and the most important thing is to look at the game itself.
What they can do is to increase the promotion of their own games, hoping to make a good start when the time comes.
If the first day of sales or something explodes "Torture and Kills the Original Form", then there will be this publicity point, and when the time comes, most players will probably be a little interested in their own games.
And it's enough to be interested in being able to entice them to buy and play, even if eight out of ten people get refunds, but don't you still have two?
Including the Silversea games of "The Legend of Sword and Sword", as well as some other second- and third-tier game manufacturers, they all have such thoughts in their hearts.
Yang Chen didn't pay much attention to these, and even Lin Jiayi's press conference on "Torture and Killing", Yang Chen was not ready to attend.
There are still a lot of things at hand, and "Minecraft", a seemingly niche project that is actually expected by Yang Chen, will not be discussed.
Part of the content on "Silent Hill" also gave Yang Chen a little headache.
Through the VR development machine, Yang Chen also experienced the DEMO effect that has been made so far.
There is no big problem with the picture quality, and with the sound effects, like most VR games, the immersion is still satisfying.
The key is still in the setting of the fog, and the third person is not much of a problem through the PC platform, but the texture of the fog on the VR platform is amplified, and the effect is not as good as imagined.
It's not a team problem, it's a problem that's limited to regular VR equipment.
"Try to deal with the fog, there is no way to do enough immersion in this aspect, so work on the sound effect, the immersion brought by the VR platform is not only visual, but also the sound environment I feel is more important than the visual." Yang Chen looked at Wang Ye in the team and said to Chen Shu.
The crowd listened with their ears pricked up.
"As mentioned before, the footsteps are synchronized, but in certain areas, such as muddy ground and water, the player controls the character as they move forward, and when they suddenly stop, they will hear one or two more sounds."
Yang Chen tapped his hand on the table and made an analogy.
"Or a path full of stagnant water, and the player's footsteps will be mixed with the sound of water splashing when they pass through, but when the player leaves the waterlogged path, the water peanut will sound along with the footsteps as they move forward." Yang Chen said with a smile on his face.
Everyone in the office listened to Yang Chen's words, imagined that picture in their minds, and couldn't help but shudder at the same time.
That's too ruthless!
With the immersion of the VR mode and the closed audio environment, it won't scare the player, right?
After having an accurate direction, Nebula Games itself has the materials from the previous development of "Resident Evil" and "Escape", and there is no need to worry about the materials in this regard, what needs to be done is to change the platform for the format conversion.
It took almost four days of hard work, and Wang Ye and the others had already finished the finished product and put it in front of Yang Chen.
"Is the test finished?" Looking at Wang Ye, Yang Chen, who was sitting in his seat watching some of the team-developed content of "Minecraft", asked.
"I've been tested for two rounds, and no bugs have been found in the normal game, Mr. Yang, do you want to see if there is anything else to improve in the actual effect of the game?" Wang Ye looked at Yang Chen with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
Test it yourself? Such a scary game, isn't it scaring yourself to play it yourself?
I tested it myself.,It's just to test the fog effect of the game.,Isn't it a masochism to test this finished product yourself?
"The game is for players to play, whether it's fun or not, whether it's exciting or not, it's something that only the player can decide. The previous players of "Wolf: Shadow Twice" had some prejudices against us, so "Silent Hill" we need to let players experience it for themselves, see if this game is to their taste, and launch the level of the endless corridor in the game as a trial content, and give players a free experience for a limited time. Yang Chen coughed lightly and said very seriously.
It's all about the players.
Suddenly thinking of something, Yang Chen said to Wang Ye: "By the way, the demo version is linked to the movie on Lu Ze's side, the "Silent Hill" movie will be released in the new year, and players who have cleared the trial content will randomly select 100 players to give away tickets for "Silent Hill", as well as a photo and autograph of the leading actor and the director. ”
After all, it's a trial version, and it's too big a linkage to get up, but it's okay to take the opportunity to promote the popularity of the movie.
"By the way, I will select 10 lucky viewers to give me a signed photo individually, and I will give away any game that has been released by Nebula Games for free; Players who have not won the lottery will enjoy a 20% discount on the full version of "Silent Hill" after clearing the "Silent Hill" trial content. ”
After thinking about it, Yang Chen suddenly realized that if he wanted to just give away movie tickets and signed photos of the leading actor and director, this didn't seem to be too attractive to some players.
But you can resist the temptation of signed photos and movie tickets of actors and directors;
Let's take a look at Mr. Yang's signature photo.
What the? Not interested?
Can you still resist the temptation of a free game?
Okay, even if you're an African and never thought you could win the lottery, isn't there a 20% discount on "Silent Hill"?
You say you still don't want to play? Then the limited-time discount given for free is placed here, and if you don't play or receive it, you will lose a lot!
After this set of combination punches, Yang Chen didn't believe that the players were not moved.
My heart is moved, this is not enough to experience it, the thrilling and exciting "Silent Hill"?.
