Chapter 33: Update Announcement!
After Director Liu left, although the atmosphere of the entire project team was still very low-key and busy, it could be seen that many people were happy.
No need to work overtime!
Now according to the normal process, the new version can be launched on Friday after the test is fine, and you can go home and rest on Saturday and Sunday, as for whether the new version has any effect, it has nothing to do with many people.
If you want to say that the most unhappy person should be Xiong Kai, I thought that the Xinghai battlefield would be postponed, but not only did it not be postponed, but it was also successfully made, and the art resources were also solved by Zhong Ming himself!
The most angry thing is that Xiong Kai's own functions have been assigned to Lao Zheng, and in the past few days, Xiong Kai has really been tortured and vomited blood, Lao Zheng has raised his nose and eyes, and he has made Xiong Kai change several places, and the good functions have been changed beyond recognition.
Xiong Kai still wondered, his luck was too bad, right? Originally, Lao Zheng was arranged for Zhong Ming, but it didn't count for some reason, and a new programmer came in the middle to cut off his beard.
At this point, Xiong Kai has no moves, so he can only hope that the new version will not perform well after it is launched, depending on whether this generation of players cooperates.
On the program team, Zhou Sen has completed the entire function, and some bugs have been fed back from the test team, and all of them have been fixed. Now there is nothing to do, so I will fight the Xinghai battlefield by myself.
The program next to him has also finished developing its own functions, watching him play the Star Sea Battlefield, he came over curiously: "This is the latest version of the big battlefield?" How, is it fun? I think Director Liu is very satisfied, it shouldn't be bad, right? ”
Zhou Sen nodded: "It's fun, don't you really say it, it feels like a very simple way to play when I first see the design document, but it's really honeyy to play." ”
"Yes, then I'll play it too, you wait for me to log in to my test server account." The program next to it also opened the test bracelet and logged in to the test server to play with Zhou Sen.
The project team, including design, programming, and art, has its own test server account, and after work, I go to the test server to play and see the new features. It's just that the last few new versions haven't had any particularly interesting updates, so everyone logs in to the test server account basically to check bugs, and it's been a long time since I've logged in for pure play like now.
But Director Liu is very satisfied with the function of the Xinghai Battlefield, which means that the effect of this function is good, so many people are also very curious and want to play it.
As a result, after playing with it, I found that it was really interesting!
Most of the current Xinghai battlefields are AI accounts for testing, and only a few insiders are playing, but the changes in the territory of different forces, the battles on the battlefield, and so on, are no different from the officially launched version, and the core fun is also there, so although it is a test server, it is still very fun!
There are also some people's test server accounts that have been very low because they haven't moved, and they can't even beat the AI account used for testing, and these people also specially use GM tools to add a lot of combat power to their accounts, just to be able to have fun in the Star Sea Battlefield!
……
On the design team's side, the announcement of the new version update has come out.
The announcement of the new version update should be released before the new version is launched, and players should be informed in advance of the update content and update time of the next version, so that players can have an expectation and psychological preparation.
Xiong Kai was responsible for writing this version of the update announcement, after all, his responsibility is the world architect, and he is directly responsible for these textual materials.
Xiong Kai could have given this job to Zhong Ming, but he didn't want to, if he let Zhong Ming write it, then he wouldn't have to blow it up to the Xinghai battlefield?
Xiong Kai wrote it himself, so he could write less content related to the Star Sea Battlefield.
Zhong Ming smiled speechlessly when he saw the announcement of the new version update, this Xiong Kai deliberately simplified the content of the Xinghai Battlefield, and he didn't introduce it clearly, he was really a clever person.
Zhong Ming didn't bother to ask him to change it, things like update announcements were not important, only a few players would take a closer look. Anyway, as soon as the new version is launched, everyone will go to play the Star Sea Battlefield, and it is impossible to say that because the update announcement is not written, no one cares about this function, that is impossible.
Zhou Zhen also glanced at the announcement of the new version update, there was no big problem, but the introduction of the Xinghai Battlefield was a bit small. Zhou Zhen didn't say anything, so he released it directly.
The announcement of the new version update was published on both the in-game login screen and the top post on the game forum, finalizing the update time this Friday morning, introducing the features of the new version, and even very generously giving players the most generous new version gift package ever, 300 star diamonds, equivalent to 30 yuan, and a lot of miscellaneous materials.
The preparation work is complete, and the bugs tested by the test team have basically been fixed, and now we are waiting for the version to be updated.
……
On the forums, players have also seen the version update announcement.
Although the game "Mecha Era" as a whole is going downhill, there are still a group of players who are paying attention, and many old players are scolding every time they update, and they are more of an angry mentality. At the beginning of the game's launch, these players were very engaged in playing, otherwise it would not have been possible to persist until now without quitting the game.
Originally, players didn't have much hope, and they all guessed that this version update was the same as before, but with some painless modifications.
After all, everyone can also feel the atmosphere in the game, it is getting cooler and cooler, and a large number of players have been lost, and it is conceivable that the project revenue must have plummeted, in this case, it is rare for the project team to invest a lot of resources and manpower to make major changes to the game, because the gains outweigh the losses, and it is better to develop a new game directly than to spend this effort.
But taking a closer look at the version update announcement, players suddenly found that in addition to the regular function optimization, there is also a function that they have never heard of, called the Star Sea Battlefield!
Below the top thread on the forum, players discussing the new version are all focusing on the new feature of Star Sea Battlefield, which they have never heard of.
"I actually made a new way to play this time?? Star Sea Battlefield? Sounds like a cool name? ”
"The new gameplay is a bit, isn't it? I guess it's probably a little bit of a game, like the kind in the arena, betting five cents! ”
"No, the update announcement was written, saying that this is a multiplayer PvP battlefield, and it is a real-time battlefield, which is open all day!"
"The announcement is not wrong, right? Isn't this a bracelet game, and it also engages in real-time multiplayer PvP? ”
"It's only been a little over two weeks since the last new version update, right? Can you do this big game in such a little time? I don't believe it! ”
"This announcement is so vaguely written, it gives me a headache, how is it playing?"
"Why am I still looking forward to the new version for some reason......"
"Looking forward to a fart, this bullshit project team must not expect anything from it, how long have we been looking forward to the new mecha in the last version? As a result, after the new version was launched, what did this do, and how many people had bought that new mecha so far? That is, after taking two glances at the original painting, I went directly into the cold palace! ”
