Creative workshop player community.
In the most conspicuous position, there is an extra line of countdown.
[There are still 18 hours and 00 minutes left to unlock "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds"]
This message was updated at 12pm.
After discovering this change, all the players in the creative workshop went crazy. Even the submarine who had not posted for ten thousand years appeared, and the discussion posts flooded the forum.
[What the hell? ! Mr. Hao has released a new game? !]
[Oh, this is much more productive than the production team’s donkeys.]
[And it’s FPS?]
[What kind of FPS are you developing? Worri, this category is almost out of date.]
[That is, it is better to release a new expansion pack for Warcraft.]
[98 yuan is not expensive... Pre-order it first to support it. If it’s not fun, you’ll get a refund.]
[Support a few! Don’t be fooled, don’t make a reservation! Don't let Mr. Hao taste the sweetness, otherwise the World of Warcraft expansion pack will be far away!]
[Seconded! Everyone, support me!]
Despite what they say, most players are still very honest.
Considering the reputation of Yunmeng Games, even players who are not interested in shooting games at all are willing to give it a try and free up their hard drives to download.
It's just that these 18 hours are really quite appetizing.
Apart from two promotional PVs and a brief introduction to the game settings and rules, the official has not released any more information about this game.
As a result, not only the player community of the creative workshop, but almost all game-related forums and groups are discussing this game called "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds".
"Good guy... 60 G's."
"A masterpiece can be produced in two months. The speed of releasing games is too fast."
After reading the game introduction in surprise, Say Ye couldn't help but sigh.
"Do you want to try this new game during the live broadcast tomorrow night?" the assistant standing next to him asked.
"I have to try it. The product produced by Mr. Hao must be a high-quality product," Say Ye smiled and clicked the pre-order button, and said to the audience in the live broadcast room, "Dear viewers, we will see you at 6:30 tomorrow. Let's see you today. I’ll download it now… I’m going to study how this new game is played.”
At the same time, the same goes for another top UP owner in the game area of Station B.
"Yunmeng Games' new game? FPS?"
Looking at the new game on the computer screen, Zhang Xiang, who had just downloaded it not long ago, clicked on the download without saying a word while picking at jio, with an overjoyed expression on his face.
"This must be criticized!"
As we all know, FPS is an almost cool category.
Even an IP as awesome as "Operation Counter Terrorism" couldn't help this category. How do you expect to rely on a new IP with no fan base to save this category
hehe.
Why
Do you, Mr. Hao, have a big face
Zhang Xiang is almost certain that, even if this game is not 100% sure to hit the streets, it certainly cannot be compared with phenomenal games like Warcraft.
Maybe it won't even reach a fraction of the latter's sales volume.
It's hard to lose money. After all, Hao Yun's reputation is there. Zhang Xiang even suspected that if the data of this game is ugly in the end, Yunmeng Group may be able to increase the sales volume even if it is a brushstroke.
After all, up to now, games with Mr. Hao personally designing the team have achieved good results without exception. And this phenomenon has almost formed a belief in the minds of players.
Taking into account that the official may have refreshed the data themselves, Zhang Xiang wisely did not set a flag on his social account this time, concluding that this game will definitely stretch the crotch.
After all, it’s quite uncomfortable to be slapped in the face all the time. Now when the show starts, the barrage filling the screen is all about making fun of him.
Even if there was a "one in a thousand" chance of being wrong, he was not willing to gamble.
…
There are still 10 hours left before PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is officially unlocked.
In the conference room of Yunmeng Building.
Zhang Ding stared at the number of player reservations on the computer screen, nervousness written all over his face.
Although he also served as a game producer when he was at DaMi Entertainment, that title was only in name.
In actual development, not to mention having no real power at all, even the little power to give opinions was evaded by Wang Fa from the ALX production team and product department. In the end, the game was blamed for the poor sales. .
Strictly speaking, this is the first game he has participated in the development of.
Although the creativity and some detailed settings were all provided by Mr. Hao...
"How's the situation?"
Entering the office, Hao Yun looked at Zhang Ding sitting in front of the computer and asked.
"So far, the situation is pretty good. The number of pre-registered players has exceeded 1.5 million... It is estimated that by the evening, there should be no problem in increasing to 2 million."
"Two million, it's actually higher than expected." Looking at the nervous Zhang Ding, Hao Yun smiled and comforted him, "Don't be so nervous. Aren't the data pretty good?"
Zhang Ding smiled bitterly, his tense expression not easing at all.
Although as Mr. Hao said, the data does look very promising, but Zhang Ding knows very well that these pre-order players chose to pre-order purely because of Mr. Hao's name, not because of their interest in the game itself. expect.
The price of 98 is not very expensive, but it is not cheap either.
If the game is not fun, most of them will choose to refund the money.
According to the purchase rules of the creative workshop, even pre-ordered games can be refunded before the game time reaches two hours.
Li Zongzheng, who was standing aside, touched his chin and said.
"I'm not really worried about sales, but the two million players... can our server withstand it?"
Hao Yun thought for a while and said.
"There should be no problem. The supercomputing center at Yunmeng Technology has assembled two supercomputer units dedicated to processing game data. Although they are reserved for World of Warcraft, the server resources on the World of Warcraft side are not particularly tight now. "
"I plan to use the two supercomputer units evenly for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. It should be no problem to cope with the peaks today and tomorrow."
Li Zongzheng's eyes lit up and he said.
"Is the supercomputer unit ready for use? Great, I'm going to say hello to the Brain Computer Interface Research Institute."
Debugging the server takes a lot of time.
There are only ten hours left before the game is launched, so time is still a bit tight.
Looking at Li Zongzheng who was about to leave the office, Hao Yun called out to him.
"No need. When I went to the research institute a few days ago, I already said hello to the people there. I just started the machine for a trial run last night and the situation was quite good. You don't have to worry about the server."
Zhang Ding smiled sheepishly and said.
"So you've already thought about it."
"I am very sure of that."
He said this sentence almost with certainty, as if he was stating a fact.
Looking at the employees in the office, Hao Yun continued.
"At six o'clock tonight, our server will be full."
"Not only that, by then we will completely change players' inherent impression of FPS games, and at the same time, we will also set a record for the peak number of online users in the history of FPS games!"
"Just wait and see."
Hearing this sentence, Li Zongzheng's face showed no change in expression, not even a little bit surprised.
This sentence may sound like bragging to others, but Li Zongzheng knows very well that there may be elements of pretentiousness in this sentence, but it is definitely not bragging at all.
The same goes for Zhang Ding sitting at his desk.
Although even he himself was surprised by his calmness.
It was as if deep in his heart, in his subconscious, that man's name was the miracle itself.
In front of that name, everything that can be called a miracle seems to be unworthy of fuss...
