Guo Mo's reproduction experiment failed!

This failure strengthened Chen Ba's idea, that is, the situation that Guo Mo encountered was purely accidental and belonged to a randomly generated convulsion bug.

In that case, leave it alone.

This kind of randomness is extremely strong.,Completely incomprehensible to the law of the Bug.,Even if it exists, it's nothing.,The right is to give benefits to players.。

After all, among so many players, Guo Mo has encountered this situation, and even Guo Mo has only encountered it once, and he can't meet it continuously, so he is still worried about a hammer?

Would you deliberately look for the lottery winning pattern and try to find a way to win 100% because a stranger won the 5 million lottery jackpot?

Impossible!

This random bug, Chen Ba thinks it doesn't matter, after all, the randomness is too strong, and the impact is not great.

It's just 10 points of merit, and if it's a lottery, the prize is too shabby.

"So be it!"

Chen Ba tapped the solid wood table with his index finger, and then said softly: "The second test has found no new problems, and it can be successfully concluded." ”

After a few days of testing, there was no.

In this case, there is no need to be suspicious, just prepare for the open beta of "Xiuzhen Fantasy" according to the original plan.

The public test is not the same as the second test.

The biggest difference is that the open beta is open to everyone, while the second beta uses an activation code and is only open to a small number of people.

Secondly, the open beta represents the official release of an online game, which is equivalent to going through all the processes to officially get married, and after that, the game cannot be suspended or deleted at will.

The public beta time is also the time when an online game is officially released and launched in the eyes of many people. Internal testing or something, generally not counted.

Of course!

An online game, the open beta and non-public beta versions, in addition to the different meanings they represent, are actually not very different in terms of game content.

Many online games in public beta are just added to a set of "in-app purchase krypton gold" system on the basis of the undeleted beta version.

Even......

Some perverted game developers, in the deletion test stage or no deletion test, have opened the in-app purchase of kryptonite, and promised to return 200% or 500% of the bonds during the public beta, etc.

That's perverted!

The deletion test fooled people into recharging krypton, promising that it would be returned according to how much proportion after the public beta, this kind of game Chen Ba is generally called "ugly".

There's really no need to rush, right?

As soon as you come up, you will expose your appearance, for fear that players will not know that you are a krypton explosion game, isn't that a deliberate attempt to dissuade players?

According to Chen Ba's idea, the game is still in the testing stage, and even the first half year of the public beta has just begun, and the operation must be conscientious, even if it is not profitable.

Keep players first and make them interested or trust the game!

After half a year, the game retention rate is guaranteed, and the reputation is relatively ideal, and then expose the appearance of eating and harvesting leeks fiercely, which is a more reasonable way to "raise pigs".

"What kind of pig is this?"

Xiao Lu was puzzled, why should he start exposing his appearance after a period of conscience, isn't it okay to expose his appearance at the beginning?

"Two reasons!"

Chen Ba explained: "Doing this can maximize the goodwill of players, so that the game's player churn rate is not so exaggerated. ”

"The second reason is that it's a simple sunk cost! You've been playing this game for half a year, or an MMORPG game, do you think your cost of abandoning the pit is very low? ”

Many online games, as soon as the public beta is opened, they can't wait to engage in various krypton gold activities and gift packs, and they can't wait to rob players directly.

This kind of game,It's very lively a few days before the start of the server.,After the excitement of the past few days of the opening of the server.,Players are not stupid.,Know what your game looks like.,Decisively pick up the bucket and run away.。

And Chen Ba chose to operate with a conscience for half a year, and then exposed his appearance after half a year, the possibility of persuading players to quit was greatly reduced, and he would even get a very high evaluation.

Players don't run away and choose to continue playing, and after playing for a long time, the so-called "sunk cost" will be generated.

Regardless of whether you have spent money in the game or not, the time and emotion invested are also a hidden cost. As long as there is this sunk cost in the game, it will greatly raise the threshold for abandoning the pit.

"That's ...... true"

Huang Qing doesn't know much about games, but he understands human nature, so he also said: "When you invest too much emotion and time cost in a game, even if the game deteriorates later, then you will most likely continue to play." ”

Unless one day, you are really heartbroken by this game, or even somewhere touches you, or you are entangled in trivial things in reality, and you haven't played this game for a long time, then you will give up the pit......

"Haven't you noticed that today's online games are basically this routine?"

Chen Ba quipped: "Let's not talk about those small factory games, the games of large factories, the first half or the first two months are definitely worth entering the pit." ”

As for whether you can withdraw in time after playing for two months or half a year, it all depends on your own willpower.

Generally no.

Dachang's routines are higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea, and when I first entered the pit, I swore that I was just playing casually, and it was impossible to indulge in it, and it would be difficult to say after a while.

The best way is to tell a friend that he wants to play a certain game, and he just wants to be cool for a while, so that he can remind him to withdraw in time.

The admonition of a friend, if it is a trustworthy friend, it may be able to persuade, and it can also help you cut off distracting thoughts in time and get out of this game.

If you can't even persuade your friends, and even try to pull your friends into the pit, that's another matter......

"It's got to be an online game!"

Zhong Shengwei sighed with emotion: "To make a stand-alone game, why do you need to ponder these routines? The game is directly on the shelves and on the shelf, love to play and not to play! ”

"You're not right."

"Who says there are no routines for single-player games? Stand-alone games have the same routines, especially those platforms with refund restrictions, and there are a lot of games that card refund time. ”

When Chen Ba said this, he was also full of anger.

When he was still studying, he didn't encounter a few stand-alone games that were fun enough to explode in the first few hours, and then they were purely defenses.

High emotional intelligence: The whole process of the game lasts for more than 20 hours!

Low EQ: When you notice that something is wrong, you can't initiate a refund!

Of course!

There aren't many single-player games that do this, and most of the single-player games are still guaranteed. After all, in this line of work, a bad reputation has a great impact on subsequent works.

"The online game routine is really deep."

Yang Dong said with a smile: "Isn't it that someone has commented that to make a good online game, what needs to be studied is not gameplay, but social and human nature." ”

Grasp the weakness of human nature, do a good job of socializing, and you can make a lot of money with your eyes closed in this online game!

If you don't do these two things well, no matter how strong the gameplay is and how fun the game is, it can't attract online game players, and it is difficult to make a lot of money in the online game market.

Mijia games don't have social?

That's really not, but people do a good job of grasping the weakness of human nature! Who do you think those characters were drawn for? Who wrote those plot copywriters to?

The open beta of "Xiuzhen Fantasy" is very conscientious.

At least in the early days of the open beta, Chen Ba is not going to play any tricks on the players, a proper game of conscience, not trying to make money just to make friends.

Half a year later, he began to pursue running water.

But then again......

Although "Xiuzhen Fantasy" is an online game that pursues flowing water, Chen Ba does not plan to learn from friends and business, and the bottom line and discipline must be maintained.

"What do you mean by that?"

"It means that even if we are very bad, it is still very bad and bottomless compared to the previous games of Tianba Studio."

Chen Ba explained: "Compared with our friends, our game is still much better, and if it is worse, we are not afraid of anyone." ”

"I see!"

Xiao Lu instantly comprehended the essence.

The lower limit of "Xiuzhen Fantasy" is very low, but this low is compared to other games in Tianba Studio.

But if you put "Xiuzhen Fantasy" into the pool of MMORPG games and compare it with the games of competitors, then "Xiuzhen Fantasy" is more conscientious and fun!

"Just get it, let's make a game store according to this idea!"

Chen Ba rubbed his arm and said: "During the public beta, remember to buy more publicity advertisements or something, we can build it if we have money." ”

This is no longer the case.

In the past, the game was announced, and it was called a poor, slightly high-end advertisement that he didn't dare to touch, after all, the studio didn't have that much money.

But now, with so much money lying on the books, purely eating interest, if you don't spend it, are you still waiting for the cubs?

Spend it hard and you're done!

For online games, the bigger the public beta momentum, the more players it attracts, the better. I'm not afraid of a lot of people, I'm afraid that no one will come.

"How many servers are there?"

"Well...... this"

Chen Ba was actually asked for a while, because he didn't know how many servers to open to meet the demand.

Mainly, he doesn't know how many players will pour into the open beta because he doesn't know how many players will be in the game.

There are too many servers, and when the time comes, they can't even fill up the "full queue", which is too embarrassing. After all, everyone is full of public beta queuing, wouldn't you kid be unsociable if you don't queue up?

You can't make a bunch of yin soldiers line up and deliberately disgust the players, right?

"That's it, let's open five servers in the early stage! Later, it will be added according to the situation, and the maximum will not exceed eight districts......"

Chen Ba felt that five districts were enough.

For example, if there are 100,000 players online in one district, there are 500,000 players in five districts at the same time.

To be reasonable, it is not a game of two major manufacturers of pigs and geese, and it is already very good to be able to do 500,000 online at the same time. Millions online, it has to be a strange game like "Don't Leave After School"!

"Okay, then five districts."

Xiao Lu nodded, and then asked, "Then these five servers, are they all located in Jiangning?" ”

"Don't don't, that's not going to work."

Before Chen Ba could speak, Yang Dong took the lead in stopping it: "The servers should be dispersed, and it is better to take more care of the players in various regions." ”

There should be one service in the southwest, one in South China, and one in North China and the central region, as for East China...... Jiangning District 1 can be covered, and there is no need to build a server in Zhonghai.

Of course, this is a private name.

Jiangning District 1 or something, it's called so within the studio, and the district server that players see must be something else.

For players, there is not much difference when it comes to choosing a server to register a character other than how high or low latency it is, and whether it is popular or not.

Delaying this issue, there is an impact but acceptable.

After all, it is an MMORPG game, not very competitive, and it is not an FPS or MOBA game that pursues extreme latency and is highly competitive.

So the server, just choose the one you like.

Those who play FPS games and MOBA games may not necessarily play the lowest latency zone, so why bother with latency in an MMO online game?

Anyway, the highest latency is only about 40-60ms, and the lowest is about 20ms.

What?

This delay affects your operation, you want to pursue the extreme latency, preferably single-digit latency?

Yes, no problem!

The computer in Brother Ba's office, the latency of playing its online games is as low as 2ms, and playing "Xiuzhen Fantasy" is about 3ms, presumably this is your favorite network latency.

In this way, you can give a few tens of millions of meanings, and Brother Ba immediately packed up his things and left, vacating the office for you to use, what do you think?
