"The Emperor of the Stars" sold poorly.

It's not so bad that it's outrageous, but it's a bit low compared to the expected goal and popularity.

From the beginning of June to the end of June, a total of 140,000 copies of the new game were sold in Early Access.

This sales result is completely sorry for the current popularity of the game.

The reason why this is the case, Chen Ba has also analyzed, is mainly because of the "black screen of death" problem caused by the optimization bug, which causes some players to be interested but dare not play.

In order to eliminate this negative impression, Tianba Studio not only issued an announcement to clarify, but also made certain adjustments and optimizations to the game environment.

The first is the introduction of two new characters, the Emperor of the Purple Sun and the Shark Supreme.

Then, Chen Ba, Yang Dong and others burst their livers and made an arcade entertainment mode of "disabling and sublimating to the extreme".

Then, we will spare no effort to invite major anchors, UP owners and game media to help promote and clarify the false rumors that "non-3090 is not allowed to play this game".

Unfortunately, little has been achieved.

It's terrible!

Obviously, under the simple picture quality, even the old graphics card of the 10 series can be played normally, and in the extreme sublimation mode, at most, the "game crashes" needs to be re-logged in.

But it has become, without the starting configuration of 3080, you dare to play "Star Emperor", you are really not afraid of the graphics card being burned?

This is a rumor!

Don't go to the battle to become an immortal road.,The picture quality is lower.,There's no.,Play the game how you want to play.,It's not affected at all.。

By the way, Chen Ba is already considering changing the new arcade mode to "Ladder Qualifying", and the original Chengxian Road retains "Title Acquisition" and becomes an entertainment mode.

No way!

Games are developed to make money, and if most players are scared by this threshold and dare not buy games, then how can they make money?

Chengxian Road's ranking system was moved to arcade mode, and in the future, this mode will be regarded as entertainment, and it would be good to play an achievement title. As a "taboo" means, it is estimated that it will not be seen in the future, except for the road to becoming an immortal.

At least not in the game!

In order to attract a group of new players to "Star Emperor" and stabilize the existing basic market, Chen Ba decided to hold an online competition.

Players can sign up in-game.

After the allotted time, you can unlock the match-specific mode, match the qualifier opponents, and decide the top 64 candidates based on the winning ranking within an hour.

When it comes to the knockout stage, the opponent will be decided by draw, and then Bo3 will play to the quarterfinals. From the point of eight into four, the game becomes a Bo5 mode......

Although it is an online competition, Chen Ba is still very attentive, and not only has prepared a large number of bonuses for this, but also a batch of Star Emperor co-branded graphics cards as rewards.

"Actually, there is no shortage of new players in our game!"

Seeing that Brother Ba was heartbroken for the future of "Star Emperor", Xiao Lu suddenly said: "The sales growth is very stable, which shows that we have new players entering the pit every day. ”

"That's right!"

"Although most new players buy a new graphics card and deliberately come to test the performance, and use "Star Emperor" as a 3DMark, there is a little ......"

Zhong Shengwei added: "Our players are very active, as long as they enter the game "Star Emperor", they will basically continue to play. ”

Such an alternative fighting game shows that the Dream 5 engine has strong graphics quality, and due to the lack of similar competitors, even if it is unpopular, it will not be reduced to no one playing.

As long as someone is interested in the ultimate picture quality shown by "Star King", as long as someone changes to a new graphics card, there will be a steady stream of new players!

"One more ......"

"Isn't Lao Huang going to release a new generation of graphics cards? When the performance is improved, the problems we encounter will be solved sooner or later. Zhong Shengwei said optimistically.

For now, the problem with the new game is actually quite simple.

As long as the next generation of new graphics cards is released, players have updated their computer configurations one after another, and the extreme sublimation will not be so terrifying.

"It's a good idea, but what about Lao Huang squeezing toothpaste?" Chen Ba rolled his eyes and said.

Moore's Law is approaching the physical limit, and the new generations of graphics cards released by Lao Huang are all squeezing toothpaste iterations, and it is difficult to say that the performance will be greatly improved.

On the other hand, you can expect a hand on the A card.

Although the universal applicability of A card is weaker than that of N card, the advantage is that the theoretical performance is strong enough, and the adaptation and optimization of A card in "Star Emperor" is not inferior to that of N card, which can fully release the performance.

"Then again, our chicken blood optimization plan should be more than just optimizing "Star Emperor", right?"

Yang Dong said thoughtfully: "Mother Su seems to be very interested in our chicken blood optimization plan, and she has sent someone to learn about it. ”

"What does she want to do?"

When Chen Ba heard this, he immediately frowned and said, "She doesn't think that the chicken blood optimization used in "Star Emperor" can make the A card easier to use, right?" ”

That's impossible.

First of all, the chicken blood optimization is only aimed at the game "Star Emperor", and it probably doesn't have such a good effect when stripped out alone.

Secondly, A-card itself has the so-called chicken blood drive, and what they lack is game adaptability rather than a new chicken blood optimization method.

"So she asked once and gave up, and I made it clear that this is an optimization plan specifically for "Star Emperor".

Yang Dong smiled: "The official Dream Building 5 engine invites us to share our game development experience with our peers at the upcoming developer conference. ”

Chen Ba: "......"

Experience? What's the takeaway?

Let me tell you, we made a super cool game with the Dream Building 5 engine, but because of the optimization bug, a large number of players were killed with a black screen of death?

Pull it down!

It's not so much about sharing experiences, it's about public executions, so that many people know about the troubles that happened in "The Emperor of the Stars".

Why don't he go, isn't it good to have that free time, stay up late and work overtime, and come up with a few new roles for "The Emperor of the Stars"?

"By the way, some players in the community have been asking when will the official version of "Star Emperor" be released? And when will Tianba Mansion be handed over? ”

"The official version depends on the situation."

Chen Ba estimated that when he changed Chengxian Road to entertainment mode and added the ladder ranking system to the arcade, it should be fine.

As for the Heavenly Tyrant Mansion......

Wait!

There are still a lot of things to deal with here in "The Emperor of the Stars", how can they have time to update "Simulator Under the Fence"?

Anyway, I've been waiting for half a year, and it's not bad for a few days.

Of course, that can't be said.

To put it so bluntly and crudely, players who buy off-plan properties in "Simulator Under the Fence" must be angry and feel that they have been cheated.

"Then put it another way......"

Chen Ba scratched his head, thought for a moment and then came to the conclusion: "In order to make up for the majority of owners, Tianba Real Estate is preparing a delivery ceremony full of surprises, so stay tuned!" ”

What surprises?

Is the second extension a surprise?
