At the urging of Lao Li, many people in the group bought the "updated platinum version of the plug-in".

I have to say that Lao Li is still reputable in this group,This plug-in group has existed for more than a year,Several core customers in the group are basically from the beginning to the present,After buying the auxiliary program, it has indeed been updated by Lao Li for free,So long and conscientious,It is a good guarantee for the opening experience of these open players。

Regular upgrades like this have been carried out twice before, both because the game has been updated in the version and increased the difficulty of cracking the plug-in, and the difficulty of Lao Li to do the plug-in has increased, and as soon as the plug-in is upgraded, the cost will naturally rise.

In this regard, the players in the group didn't think too much about it, and they were all looking forward to Lao Li updating the latest platinum version of the plug-in program.

In the evening, Lao Li counted the results of the day and gained a lot.

On this day alone, there are more than 80,000 yuan!

Of course, it was impossible to earn so much every day before, basically new players bought sporadically for a month or two, and some bought particularly cheap versions for only one or two hundred a month, and the more expensive ones were four or five hundred, without much income.

But every time he sells this kind of "advanced plug-in", Lao Li's income is often very considerable.

Because every time this advanced version of the plug-in is launched, several local tyrants in the group will directly renew and upgrade, and often renew it for one year as soon as it is renewed.

For example, this time Lao Li launched the "Platinum Edition", the price is 500/month, and the annual subscription can be directly discounted by 5000, and many local tyrants directly spend 3000 yuan to subscribe to the year, and Lao Li directly gets 3000 from a local tyrant. In addition, there are also some that are guaranteed for half a year, which can be discounted by seven, and basically those old customers will buy a few more months in order to be cheaper.

In this way, Lao Li directly made a lot of money!

Lao Li slept directly in the afternoon, because he stayed up all night last night, which was really a little unbearable, but it still created an illusion for the players in the group that he was desperately staying up late to update the plug-in program.

When Lao Li woke up, it was already more than three o'clock in the morning. He sat up directly from the bed and took a look at the situation in the group.

Well, a few night owls in the group who stayed up the latest didn't speak anymore, and it is estimated that most of them have already rested.

There were still a few people who stayed up late waiting for the plug-in update, but they didn't wait, probably they all went to sleep, and they came back tomorrow morning.

Lao Li disbanded the chat group and ran away decisively.

……

The next day, many players who were originally in the plug-in chat group woke up and were stupid.

The chat group is disbanded!

These people have no second channel to contact each other, and only a very small number of players have friends with each other, and when they sum up with each other, they suddenly find out that they have been deceived!

"What do you mean, why did Lao Li disband the chat group?"

"yes, my chat group is gone!"

"What do you mean?"

"What do you mean? Nonsense, we've been deceived! ”

"! Lao Li, is this still human? Ran away with money? ”

"Damn, I've just been charging for a year!"

"Does that mean that he said before that he made a platinum version, and it was all a lie? Just to cheat us out of our money? ”

"I see! It's also outrageous! It's so shameless! ”

The players in the original plug-in group were all indignant and were about to explode!

Yesterday, I was already abused by various players in the game to vomit blood.,Just waiting for the update plug-in abuse to come back.,As a result, the plug-in author ran away early in the morning.,And the money was swept away!

Individual local tyrant players have friends with each other and are already banding together to recover the money, but how easy is this thing to say?

What they bought was not a real commodity, and it was not protected by the law, and all transactions were carried out online, so Lao Li did not use his real identity information at all, and it was difficult to trace it.

However, it is difficult to say whether these local tyrants have other means.

……

After the "Xuanjia Project" updated the god-killing mode, players are just like the New Year, and they are happy!

In the past, players hated plug-ins, and they prayed that there would be no plug-ins in this game, once there were plug-ins, almost everyone would be disgusted, even if the official detection was banned in time, those players who were killed by the plug-in, their game experience has been destroyed, and there is no way to make up for it.

But now it's different, and players are still looking forward to a few cheats in the game!

After this update, the detection efficiency of the plug-in has become particularly high, and it can basically be detected within the bureau. After the detection, the whole game will enter the god-killing mode, and all the dead players will be resurrected, invincible + unlimited bullets, and the authorities can torture and kill the plug-in for revenge.

It's okay for the plug-ins to live up to their stubborn resistance, and they can die happily, but the more they insist, the worse they will be abused, and the better the rewards for the players.

Many players who have been suffering for a long time have said that they have been abused by the orphans for so long, and they can finally be abused back, cool!

While this normal game flow can still be disrupted, what does it matter? Just be able to abuse the plug-in!

There are even many GS1 console players who come to the PC platform to experience a god-killing mode, and there is no plug-in in a game, but they feel uncomfortable.

Moreover, some news broke out on the Internet, and the owners of several plug-in groups chose to donate and run away!

There are also those who didn't run, but they were all helpless against the god-killing mode of "Xuanjia Project", and turned the development direction of the plug-in to other games.

With the god-killing mode of "Xuanjia Project", Shimmer Studios has once again become famous, and this unprecedented anti-cheating measure has been called "the most successful anti-cheating measure in history" by players.

……

On December 29th, the IGP Game Awards Ceremony.

This award ceremony attracted the attention of a large number of Chinese gamers, because at this award ceremony, Shimmer Interactive Entertainment's games received several nominations.

"Resident Evil" and "Ink Cloud 2" were nominated for Game of the Year;

"Resident Evil" and "Project Xuanjia" were nominated for Best Shooter;

"Ink and Smoke 2" was nominated for Best Action Adventure Game and Most Creative Game;

Star Tinder was nominated for Best Strategy Game;

Wolf was nominated for Best Action Game.

For this list of nominees, all players and game providers are convinced.

It's so prolific!

Strictly speaking, so many games are made by the two studios under Shimmer Interactive Entertainment, although Tianji Studio is also making games, but after all, they are all kryptonite games, and it is okay to make money, which is not very good in this kind of selection.

But it's not easy for the two studios to make so many games, and the games they make are all high-quality games, who can withstand this!

At this awards ceremony, Shimmer Studio also lived up to expectations and won a number of awards, and the game of the year was finally awarded to "Ink and Smoke 2", which can be said to be a much-anticipated award, "Ink and Smoke 2" The Chinese style and whimsical gameplay completely convinced the judges and players all over the world, as the only perfect score of this year, it is very reasonable to win the game of the year.

Resident Evil won the best shooter. Although "Xuanjia Project" is popular all over the world, it is still a little worse in terms of forced style. In fact, the quality of "Resident Evil" is fully qualified to compete for the game of the year in previous years, but this year it was unlucky to crash its own "Ink Cloud 2", which is no choice.

However, "Resident Evil" still has IP value, and it also has a large number of die-hard fans.

Star Tinder won Best Strategy Game and Wolf won Best Action Game, and both games have nothing to say about them, both of which have reached the top of their respective fields.

Although "Wolf" is suffering, it is also highly respected among Western players, and a large number of Western hardcore players have also participated in the "Wolf" racing competition, which is inseparable from Chinese players on the list.

It is worth mentioning that the appearance of "Wolf" also kept the IGP judges busy, because the game was so close to the IGP awards ceremony that there was only about two weeks in between. Originally, the nominations for Best Action Game had already been decided, and "Wolf" was forcibly added.

Originally, the best action game was "Extreme Fighting 3", but now it can only be said to be an MMP, and the awards in hand are inexplicably gone!

At the award ceremony, Zhong Ming, as the designer of Shimmer Studio, repeatedly came to the stage to accept the award, and he was a little embarrassed.

After the final game of the year was revealed, Zhong Ming took the stage again, and this time, the official also played the DLC of "Ink and Smoke 2" and the linkage promotional video of "Wolf" and "Ink and Smoke 2" on the big screen, pushing the atmosphere of the scene to a peak.

On the big screen, first of all, the DLC content of "Ink and Smoke 2".

In the new master mode, scholars encounter more high-level monsters, and the difficulty of battles is comprehensively improved; Lots of game linkage content; New high-difficulty trials, speedrun challenges, and more have all made players have an unprecedented sense of anticipation for the "Ink and Smoke 2" DLC.

Players saw the protective clothing in "Star Tinder" in the promotional video, which can be obtained directly in the DLC of "Ink and Smoke 2", and can have the functions of both cold-proof clothing and heat-insulating clothing after wearing;

At the same time, many new vehicles also appeared in the promotional video, such as wooden kites, machine cars, machine umbrellas, and so on.

When the wooden kite and the machine car appeared, the scene erupted in cheers, and the players saw that this cool all-terrain automatic unicycle can climb mountains, can move on the water, and like the wooden kite, you can refuel as long as you consume the props on your body, which is much better than the horse drawn by the scholar before.

When he saw the umbrella, there was a burst of laughter and boos at the scene, and it was obvious that there was no shortage of players who were confused by the abuse of "Wolf".

Now the speedrun competition of the game "Wolf" is in full swing, but after all, it has just been released, and the publicity in the Western region has not yet been in place.

All in all, at this IGP awards ceremony, Shimmer Interactive Entertainment can be said to be the biggest winner, and the game of the year is in hand, which also marks that Shimmer Studio has officially entered the ranks of world-class studios, and Zhong Ming has also been able to sit on an equal footing with those world-renowned game producers!

……

On the Shimmer live broadcast platform, the "Wolf" racing competition is gradually coming to an end.

In the month-long "Wolf" customs clearance competition, many hidden folk gods appeared, and at the same time, players really realized the gap between people and people.

In the first part of the half-price event, the official statistics show that the number of clearances in the game after one month is 9.4%, and the number of players who have cleared the eight-week program is only a pitiful 1.3%.

In other words, less than 10% of players received half-price rewards for completing the game a month after its release, and only a pitiful 1% of players received a full refund.

Players have expressed their convincing, and sure enough, Zhong Ming can play!

When many players see the rule of "half price for clearing customs", they still think that they must have earned it. After all, they think that no matter how difficult the game design of "Wolf" is, it must always consider the player's tolerance limit, right? It's impossible to make a game that can't be cleared, right?

After the game came out, it was really hard at first, but seeing so many speedrunning strategies and injury-free strategies on the Internet gave players an illusion, feeling that the game "Wolf" would definitely be able to clear the level as long as they were willing to work hard.

Of course, this idea is correct, but the key to "work hard to clear the level" depends on how hard you work......

Although the "Half Price" event has always been effective, players who have not cleared the game one month after its release will not have a high probability of opening it in the future. Players have said that they were really pitted by Zhong Ming!

I made a half-price event to trick everyone into buying the game, but in the end, I suffered and spent money, and I couldn't get a refund!

Simply vomiting blood.

In terms of the four-ending speedrun in the second part, there have been a lot of god players around the world. Among them, the clearance time of the Shura ending has been compressed to about 45 minutes, while the non-Shura ending is about 1 hour and 40 minutes. Because Zhong Ming's "Wolf" is not exactly the same as "Wolf" in the previous life, the card method and jumping method of many bug points are not the same.

The design team of "Wolf" is also trying to fix the bugs, but the players' ingenuity is endless, and they still found some bugs that can quickly skip the boss, so the playthrough time has been successfully compressed.

However, the speedrunning video of "Only Wolf" did bring additional talking points to the players, watching the speedrunning gods finish the plot that they haven't opened for a month in dozens of minutes, all kinds of bugs are at hand, and there are no props to kill the final boss perfectly, and the onlookers can only sigh one after another, this is the world of the gods!

Moreover, the racing competition has also made many high-end players stand out and be known to the audience. These people may have been just ordinary players, but now after the test of "Wolf", they have gathered fans and popularity, and have become the host area anchors of Shimmer Live.

The third part of the injury-free boss competition is more blooming, and many ordinary players can also participate.

The sorting rules of the non-damage boss competition are ranked according to the boss difficulty, kill time and other factors, on the one hand, players are encouraged to farm multiple bosses, and on the other hand, players are encouraged to use many different ways to play with the moth.

For example, some players invented the Phantom Ring Breaker Monk's way of playing, eating the moon hidden candy and sneaking up and then constantly pinching the seeds and throwing the ashes, and at the same time moving to the lamppost next to the Phantom Ring Breaker, and jumping directly from the lamppost when the Ring Breaker Monk was controlled by the Ash Regiment, you can assassinate him. He used this method to successfully achieve the assassination of the Phantom Ring Breaker Monk without injury, and received a reward of 10,000 bonds.

And this style of play has also been adopted by the speedrun process, compressing all kinds of speedrun processes by tens of seconds.

In the end, the "Wolf" racing competition ended perfectly, the top three speedrunners got bonus rewards, the top players in the uninjured boss competition also got bonds, and the participants were rewarded, and for those players who failed to clear the level, they also made a melon-eating crowd, and the onlookers were very happy.

For Zhong Ming, the benefits are even more. On the one hand, the popularity and sales of the game "Wolf" continued to climb during the month, and on the other hand, Shimmer Live took this opportunity to attract a large number of viewers.

So far, the game "Wolf" can be regarded as a lesson for game designers and players around the world.

How difficult is the game?

It doesn't matter, the difficulty can also be used as a selling point of the game, the key is to see if you do it well!
