Chapter 138: It's a light bulb, it shines everywhere
"How are you?" Leon's brows furrowed.
Li Ang admired Minister Zhou's ability, but never liked him. He hated Minister Zhou's coppery smell, his unscrupulous way of thinking about making money, and his view of games purely as commodities.
Very annoying!
"Because Mr. Zhou Gangzhou is the best game operation talent I can find so far." It was Sister Hei who spoke, her voice was calm and rational: "I know what you think, and I also hate those junk domestic online games or mobile games that are purely for making money and are completely commoditized." ”
However, a game is a game, and operation is an operation, and Minister Zhou is not involved in the development of the game, he is only responsible for the operation of the game. In his position, seeking his own affairs, the original Minister Zhou was in Tiansheng Company, so he naturally followed the business philosophy of Tiansheng Company, and now we are Tianang, so naturally it will go according to your wishes. ”
Sister Bai spread her hands: "After all, you are the boss of the company now." You can set a basic operating principle for him. ”
"Besides, in the future, the operation plan formulated by Minister Zhou will give you a purpose, and it will be implemented after approval, you can check it in person, if you think it is not appropriate, just call it back."
"Okay." Li Ang was persuaded, and then looked at Minister Zhou: "Didn't you do a good job in Tiansheng?" Why did you suddenly choose to change jobs? ”
"Because there's no room for upside." Minister Zhou said bluntly: "As you know, when I was in Tiansheng, I was the head of the operation department, and then I was the manager in charge. In other words, at least for more than ten years, I can no longer improve in Tiansheng, so I have been looking for better opportunities. ”
"Then the headhunter sent me an invitation from your company, and I learned more about your company and the games that your company has already produced. I found that your company is far superior to Tiansheng in terms of technical strength and capital strength, and has broader development prospects...... In addition, the treatment given by your company is really good, so I chose to join your company. ”
"Okay, let's get to work." Li Ang didn't want to dwell too much, anyway, if he found that it was not suitable, he just fired it, waved his hand casually, and accepted Minister Zhou's joining.
"Okay." Minister Zhou nodded and opened the folder in his hand: "First of all, let me report on the testing of this "Battle Royale" game. ”
"After a week of detailed testing by our mobile game department, we found that the quality of the game "Battle Royale" is very good, the operation is smooth, the graphics are exquisite, the gameplay is novel, and it has the characteristics of a big hit, and it is very likely to sell well after it is put into the market."
"But......" he said, "However, we still found some shortcomings in this game, and we hope that the development department will ......"
"Oh? What the? Leon was puzzled.
Minister Zhou reported: "First of all, there is the number of players in each game. Several testers have pointed out that the number of 10 people in a game is still too small, although most of the game maps in the game are not large, but if the early battle is fierce and the number of survivors is very small, it is too time-consuming to search for another opponent, and you often have to wait until the range of activities is reduced to find the opponent......"
"What do you think...... Narrowing down player activity ahead of time? Leon touched his chin.
"No, we recommend increasing the number of players in the game, from 10 players per game to 30! and increases the number of spawn points. Minister Zhou explained: "The larger the number of players, the easier it is for players to meet opponents, and they can enter the battle state in a shorter time, making the game more exciting!" It also reduces the boring time of looking for opponents all day long, and speeds up the pace of the game......"
"Well, that's a good idea." Leon nodded: "Anything else?" ”
"Also, we recommend adding a party feature." Minister Zhou elaborated: "Social networking is also an important part of advanced online games, and friends teaming up to play games together will increase the user viscosity of our games. ”
"We recommend adding a team battle function of two, three, or even five players, and optimizing the matchmaking strategy to let all players in the same team play together, for example, 30 people is 15 pairs of two-person players, or 10 teams of three-person players, 6 teams of five-player players, and finally ranked according to the team score......"
"That's a good proposal too." Leon gladly accepted.
"There is also a suggestion that I hope to increase a certain number of robot players to ensure the efficiency of the game, so that they can enter the game as soon as possible and play against each other." Minister Zhou continued: "This is a feature that has been successful on Penguin's "Glory of Kings", after all, waiting for more than half a day to enter the game will seriously hit the player's enthusiasm for the game. ”
"No, you don't have to!" Li Ang explained: "Our "Battle Royale" is different from "Glory of Kings", we only have two areas, one fruit, and one table, and the number of players is still guaranteed...... Well, forget it, if you don't have enough players in the early stage or in the middle of the night, let's invest in a little robot player...... I accepted this suggestion too! ”
"Another suggestion is about the consumption system of games." Minister Zhou's tone was a little cautious.
"What's wrong with the consumption system?" Li Ang's brows furrowed again.
"The consumption system of our "Battle Royale" is very simple, there are two kinds of currency: gold coins and diamonds, and the profit point is only one kind of 'dress up lottery'. This is too simple, and in such a state, it is very easy to cause monetary inflation. Minister Zhou explained: "For example, if a person who doesn't pay attention to his appearance and dresses up casually and uses it until he is old, then there is no place to spend the gold coins on his body, and there is no desire to recharge diamonds, so the gold coins on his body will continue to pile up." ”
"And there is a trading system in the game, an auction house, if there are more players like this, the overall price in the game will rise, resulting in novice players not being able to afford the clothes in the auction house at all."
"And if you have to dress up in the lottery, the costumes in the player's hands will only increase, not decrease, and the same is true for the costumes in the auction house, as time progresses, the accumulated costumes will become more and more, and the entire trading system will be overwhelmed, and even lead to collapse."
"What's your suggestion?" Leon's face became serious.
"I suggest increasing the ways to spend various currencies in the game, and even decreasing the ways of various cosmetics!" Minister Zhou opened another folder: "I have here a few plans that we have recently drawn up. ”
"First of all, the auction house charges a commission. Regardless of whether it is a gold or diamond auction house, the price of the listed item must be a multiple of 10, and a 10% fee will be charged for each transaction. ”
"Secondly, 20,000 gold coin costumes and 30,000 diamond costumes were graded, divided into white ordinary costumes, green delicate costumes, blue beautiful costumes, purple luxurious costumes, and colorful luxury costumes. Arrange each outfit according to a certain degree of complexity, gorgeousness, and fashion to determine the degree of cherishment and adjust the explosion rate. The higher you go, the more you cherish it, where colorful costumes can add some gorgeous special effects, such as Ambilight, wings, halos, and so on. ”
"Of course, these are just aesthetic ratings, and the costume still does not increase the attributes, ensuring the fairness of the game."
"Then it's simple, low-grade costumes can be combined into high-level costumes, five pieces in one, and a certain synthesis fee is charged, gold coins are charged for gold coins, and diamonds are charged for diamonds...... We can refer to "Dungeon Warriors" for this equipment synthesis system, and there is a certain chance of failure, about 50%. For example, there is a 50% chance that five green delicate outfits will be successfully synthesized into a random blue beautiful outfit, and there is also a 50% chance that they will be synthesized and failed, and they will become a random green outfit. This way, you don't have to worry about the player having too much on their hands......"
"As for the auction house, we can also set a threshold, for example, only cosmetics that have reached the blue grace level can be put on the shelves for sale, so that there is no need to worry about the auction house accumulating too many cosmetics, which will make it difficult for players to find goods, and the trading system will collapse......"
