Restart the Gaming Era

During the first week of Zhong Ming's absence, I missed him.

Well, in fact, not many people in the "Mecha Era" project really think about Zhong Ming. Zhou Sen and Jiang Wanna may think more about it, and others are like that.

After all, strictly speaking, Zhong Ming is not a particularly lovable person, especially to people like Zhou Zhen, Xiong Kai and Sun Hongsheng.

Of course, everyone would still discuss it in private, and it soon became clear to everyone that Zhong Ming was only transferred and not fired, but this made no difference in the eyes of many people.

"Zhou Zhen, Xiong Kai, come to my office." Liu Yuxin called these two people into his office.

Others continued to go about their own business and acted as if nothing had happened. For such a large project, missing an intern will not cause any serious consequences.

In Liu Yuxin’s office.

"You all know about Zhong Ming. There is no need to discuss this matter. If a project wants to maintain stability, this kind of thorn must be removed. I came to you today to confirm the new version. Zhou Zhen, the new version What do you think? Is it okay?" Liu Yuxin looked at Zhou Zhen.

Zhou Zhen nodded: "No problem."

Of course there is no problem. He is the chief designer. Could it be that the new version will not be released without the bell?

Liu Yuxin nodded: "Yeah. By the way, I asked Zhong Ming to write the design document for the new version of the function before. I don't know if he deleted it. If he deleted it, you can also look up the historical version. These new functions, Zhou Zhen, you Divide one point at a time and advance as usual.”

"Oh, I looked at the documents. They are all still there and have not been deleted. But these are the functions..." Zhou Zhen didn't think of a good word for the time being.

Liu Yuxin: "Huh? What happened to these functions?"

Zhou Zhen thought for a while and said: "It feels a bit too conservative. There is no new content or gameplay, just some optimizations and adjustments. Maybe Zhong Ming came up with the function of Star Sea Battlefield with a slap on his forehead, and the subsequent inspiration has dried up. .”

"Oh, is that so? Let me see."

Liu Yuxin turned on the computer and flipped through the design documents that Zhong Ming had written.

"It seems that he is indeed too conservative, and he will not make mistakes, but... looking at it this way, Zhong Ming may have indeed run out of inspiration."

Liu Yuxin also hesitated. He could see that if the design was followed this time, the current situation would probably be maintained at best. It would be difficult to continue to improve the data, and there would be no changes that players are looking forward to.

Whether it is project profit or activity data, it is difficult to achieve the same improvement as when the Star Ocean Battlefield version was first launched.

Liu Yuxin had never read Zhong Ming's design documents before, but now that he looked through them, he felt a little worried.

According to this change, it is impossible to quadruple the monthly turnover as before, nor to triple it. It would be good if it can be maintained at more than 4 million.

"Then change it! Xiong Kai, please come up with a new change." Liu Yuxin looked at Xiong Kai.

Xiong Kai was stunned: "Me?"

Liu Yuxin nodded: "Of course, you combine these design documents from Zhong Ming and make some changes. Now our project is in good condition and the players' tolerance is relatively strong. We will take this opportunity to increase the profit data. If we can If we increase our monthly sales to RMB 10 million this month, our future development will be much better!"

"I have already reported to Mr. Lu. Mr. Lu attaches great importance to our project and is working hard to obtain many resources. This week we will have two new artists and some advertising spaces are also under negotiation. But four The figure of more than one million is still not good enough. There are several competing projects in the company, and the resources we have obtained now are limited. But if the monthly turnover can reach tens of millions, the resources obtained from the company will increase several times! So, This goal is what we must achieve!”

He looked at Xiong Kai: "How are you? Are you confident?"

Xiong Kai was stunned for a moment and nodded quickly: "I have confidence!"

Liu Yuxin looked at Zhou Zhen again: "After Xiong Kai writes out the new design document, you can check it for him. If it doesn't work, you can overhaul it yourself."

Zhou Zhen: "Oh, okay, Director Liu."

Liu Yuxin felt that Zhou Zhen's attitude was not very firm, and he was a little unhappy: "Why do you feel that you have no confidence? The major functions of Xinghai Battlefield have been perfected, and now you and Xiong Kai are asked to make changes on this basis, but you don't have confidence? Don't you have the confidence? You want to tell me that a world architect and a chief designer are not even comparable to an intern?"

Zhou Zhen said quickly: "Have confidence, have confidence."

In fact, Zhou Zhen said he was confident, but he was really unsure in his heart.

Why? He still doesn’t quite understand why the Star Sea Battlefield was successful!

Do you want to say that Star Sea Battlefield is fun? Motivated players? Increased the social aspect of the game? Yes, these can be analyzed, but it is like a blind man touching an elephant. If you touch the ears like cattail leaf fan, and he touches the trunk, he thinks he has touched an elephant. But what does an elephant look like? Not necessarily right.

The same is true for the function of Star Sea Battlefield. It can indeed analyze the reasons why many players like it, but if you really want to change it on this basis, it is equivalent to giving an elephant a facelift, and it may not necessarily succeed.

What's more, Liu Yuxin's goal is to double it on the basis of 5 million monthly turnover!

no pressure? How is that possible.

Liu Yuxin looked at these two people with some hatred: "Forget it, I won't pour cold water on you. It is true that this matter is difficult to a certain extent, and I know it. The key issue now is to raise income, even if it can't reach 10 million. , if you reach 9 million, you can also force this figure up through internal recharge! In fact, you think that doubling it is nothing more than letting everyone pay twice as much, right?"

"There is a lot of leeway in the function of Star Sea Battlefield. For example, if two people fight, regardless of their combat strength, the stronger party will deduct at least 12% of their health. Can this data be changed to 5%? Now everyone is waiting for resurrection together. , can the resurrection time be changed to something that can be purchased? Can some props that specifically serve the function of the Star Sea Battlefield be sold?"

Zhou Zhen blinked: "I understand."

The function of Star Sea Battlefield is a large-scale PVP battlefield. Since it is a battlefield, players with different combat strengths will definitely be unbalanced. You recharged ten thousand and I didn't recharge a penny. There must be a big gap in combat effectiveness. Zhong Mingding's mandatory blood deduction of 12% rule is to restrict the wealthy to a certain extent.

To put it simply, for example, if a local tycoon charges 100,000 and completely crushes all free players in terms of combat effectiveness, then 100 free players may rush up and his fleet will not lose any blood at all. After adding this rule, 12% of the blood will be deducted for every person you hit. In this way, a rich man can only hit 9 people at most, and it will be useless no matter how much money you charge.

Liu Yuxin feels that this value can be lowered further. If it is adjusted to 5%, the local tyrants can defeat 20 people. This is a disguised way to encourage the local tyrants to continue to recharge in large amounts, because the local tyrants play a greater role in the game.

Other changes are similar. In Liu Yuxin’s opinion, these changes can be fully utilized to increase recharge in the short term!

As long as the monthly turnover reaches a certain level, it is logical to ask the senior management for more resources!
