466. What a coincidence

After some guidance from Qing Zhiyuan, Akanishi Ken and their improvement of the built-in download software in the dandelion game platform became handy.

Moreover, Akanishi Ken also gave full play to some of his own ingenuity and professional skills, not only completing the P2P technology mentioned by Qing Zhiyuan, but also doing some functions of breakpoint resuming and file caching.

And the original package body of about 500M is directly split into many small units, and special numbers are used as marks between each other to facilitate the use of search when the breakpoint is resumed.

At the same time, the search algorithm has been optimized so that players can maximize the speed when downloading the game.

After these functions were done, the first test surprised the company's in-house technicians.

"What?! Can you reach a download speed of more than 1M? ”

And P2P is like this, the first few people who download from the server may be relatively slow, but as more and more players and machines [have seeds], the speed will become faster and faster.

It's easy to understand when you think about it, because the warehouses that provide supply are becoming more and more numerous, and they are getting closer and closer to you.

The only thing that can restrict the download speed is no longer a matter at the software level, but a real physical bandwidth limit in reality.

For example, the current network bandwidth of the United States is about 3M, so you can reach this theoretical value at most.

After using the dandelion download software, it is equivalent to the entire highway running on your car.

Originally, more than 10 people drove on this highway at the same time, but now you have a very high VIP permission, as long as your car is driving on the highway, everyone else will line up behind you.

However, the reason why there is an upper limit is only because this road is only so wide, and at most 4 large trucks can run in parallel, and no more can be stuffed.

……

Neon got something out here.

When I took a look at Pokeni Mi Country, the program apes of the subsidiary were all scared stupid.

"Terrible...... What the hell is this download speed, it's really hell over. ”

Everyone gathered around the main program, looking at the download speed change curve on the screen, and couldn't help but drop their jaws one by one.

Dandelion's latest downloader that directly doubles the download rate tenfold!

What is this concept?

I used to run only 30 miles on the road, but now I can run 300 miles.

You're going to heaven!

"Sometimes you really have to admire the imagination and creativity of the Neon guys, it stands to reason that the Internet industry in the United States should be more developed, and there is no good Internet environment in Ni until now.

As a result, they were able to make this jaw-dropping thing. ”

"It's a bit outrageous, these neon people don't have access to the Internet, and as a result, the software they downloaded can do it to this extent."

"Okay, okay, we just need to pay attention to the normal update of the dandelion platform and the downloader is fine. It's all your own parent company's after all.

The family has made money and everyone shares it together, what's so bad. ”

David Breivik, president of Pokeni Rice, clapped his hands and said.

So everyone stopped the discussion and continued to work at their workstations.

……

"Okay guys, what if this thing wasn't used to download games, but something else?"

A programmer named Gardner Rex in Pokeni Rice Country had a whim.

After he went back, he tried it and found that the downloaded songs were also flying.

However, if you want to use it for sharing and forming a P2P network, someone needs to seed them.

In other words, it has to be re-encoded according to the download format of Dandelion.

Put some unique markings.

However, Rex was thinking: what if we made an automation feature for Dandelion Downloader? That is, if you can automatically generate a torrent after finding a resource and mark it, it seems that from the user's point of view, there is no intermediate process, but it becomes a complete web resource search and downloader.

It didn't take much time for Rex to test it after writing the code, and found that it was really easy to use.

He reported the idea and the thing he had made to his superiors, and then sent it to Qing Zhiyuan by long-distance mail.

Qing Zhiyuan smiled happily when he saw him.

Good guys, these people in the company have learned to draw inferences.

That's pretty good.

Qing Zhiyuan replied, saying that the platform would be updated according to the final version completed by Rex.

In addition, hurry up and register the relevant patents.

……

A month later, November 12th, is a day worth remembering for the entire Internet industry and the game industry.

In the course of the day, Pokeni did two big things.

The first thing is to update the Dandelion game platform.

This update is the biggest since the last time a new dual currency system was added, and the official explanation is:

In order to let everyone have a smoother and better download experience, and in order to make the upcoming "Dragon Journey" can be downloaded smoothly through the dandelion game platform, the entire dandelion game platform has been upgraded.

Yes, Upgrade.

Instead of updating: update

Pokeni uses a very interesting vocabulary.

So that you can intuitively feel the huge changes in the dandelion game platform this time from an emotional point of view.

And it's upward.

Higher level.

It gives players a more advanced feel, rather than simply adding some new content and changes.

Fortunately, the total number of online update packages is not very large, and the new game downloader is only a few megabytes.

It didn't take long to update.

At first, everyone was puzzled, because it didn't seem that the interface had changed much, and there were no new features.

"Is this being fooled by Pokeni?" Players were a little skeptical.

"Can this Nima still be called an upgrade? Worse than my boyfriend's job, I don't feel it at all. ”

"Really, isn't this the same as the previous gaming platform?"

Although the last update was large, the performance was very intuitive, the interface of the entire game platform has changed, and there are two different sets of in-game currency.

The original board game lobby has also been spun off separately and has become an important sub-category of the game platform.

This time it's updated with a loneliness.

Everyone really didn't feel it at all.

However, since he didn't feel it, he went with him, and it didn't seem to have much impact on the players playing the game anyway.

……

Something was wrong in the middle of the day.

Pokeni's Dragon Quest was officially released, on the same day as the game platform update.

Everyone finally found such a lost change-

Because after the end of this update, there is an additional game download button in the dandelion game platform.

After clicking on it, I found that there were a bunch of games listed inside.

There are not only Pokeni's latest "Dragon Hunt", but also some classic games, such as Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog, Pokeni's "PokΓ©mon Red Green", "PokΓ©mon 3D World", "Onmyoji" and so on.

There are about 10 different games that look like.

Although some games have a certain age,

It looks like just a few more icons, but it's still exciting for players.

Some of the first players to discover this feature couldn't help but exclaim, "! It turns out that what Qing Zhiyuan said is true. ”

……

Kiprin Borg is a college student in the United States who lives in the same dormitory with another roommate.

Usually the guy is out there and doesn't show up much, but it also gives Borg a certain amount of freedom.

It's not for doing weird things, but it's fun to play games alone in a student dormitory.

After the update of the Dandelion game platform, Borg immediately noticed the extra game store button in the main interface.

When I clicked in, I found a row of game icons inside.

One of the most conspicuous is naturally Pokeni's new game-

Dragon Quest

The icon is a very Miyazaki-style girl with neat short hair, resolute eyes, and cute appearance.

And then behind her, a giant dragon hovering in the sky.

The whole icon gives an indescribable sense of shock.

After the Dragon Hunt, there are the PokΓ©mon series and the Sonic the Hedgehog series of games.

Now the game store system made by Pokeni is still relatively simple.,To be precise, it only undertakes the most basic functions of listing and buying and downloading.,As for comments.,Player community and a variety of other advertising and interface features,Qing Zhiyuan hasn't let me join it yet.。

Those things are all content that will be updated and iterated in the future after the scale of the platform is made.

Now everyone has not developed the habit of using the platform to download games, so naturally there is not much commercial value.

However, once the scale of users is increased in the future, not only players on Sega DC but also players on PC will become the traffic of the Dandelion game platform, which is the basic chip that can be used for commercialization in the future.

Qing Zhiyuan is very confident and patient in this, and is not in a hurry at all.

At the beginning, players were able to enjoy basic and convenient functions, and there was no large-scale update, which is actually very friendly.

Kiplin Borg hesitated, swallowed silently, and then made a difficult and impulsive decision:

He's ready to try out Pokeni's new features.

So I clicked and bought "Dragon Hunting Journey"

Fortunately, there are a lot of dandelion coins in the account, so you don't have to run again to buy point cards to recharge.

After the purchase was successful, a message popped up on the interface of the dandelion game platform:

[Thank you for your purchase, and then download and install the game for you]

After the prompt ends, an option pops up for him to choose the directory where to store the game.

Once you've done that, the game is now ready to download.

Seeing this, Borg couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking up at the sky outside the dormitory, it was gloomy and gloomy, and it was estimated that there would be a heavy rainstorm in a while.

……

Dragon Hunt, this new game, is a very meaningful work for Pokeni and even for the entire game industry.

It's not that the content is good, the design is fun and creative, because no one on the market has ever seen what the game looks like except for a few game media that write reviews.

However, the main reason why it has such a huge influence is its first digital new game of P Society.

And it's a masterpiece.

Pokeni's influence around the world is obvious to all, and the Dragon Hunt Tour was highly anticipated before it was released.

Now it is labeled as "exclusive" and "the first digital new game", and it has become popular all of a sudden.

Menacing.

The journey of dragon hunting has just entered the field of vision of countless players.

What a coincidence, the upcoming year 2000 also happens to be the Year of the Dragon!
