At this moment, there was a commotion under the stage.
Fortunately, there were many security guards to maintain order, and everyone did not react excessively.
There are many game developers in the audience, they are the targets of Li Zetian!
Third-party game developers are very sensitive to the existence of the Battle.net platform. After all, Li Zetian just said that future Flamingo games will be released on the Battle.net platform. Flamingo is the world's largest game publishing company, and many third-party game developers rely on Flamingo to publish their games. In other words, their future games may also be released on the Battle.net platform.
It's just that third-party game developers are very uncertain about this innovative and bold game distribution method.
Li Zetian said solemnly: "With the development of the Internet, we must recognize the reality that computer games can be downloaded online. For example, the content of game CDs is published by players on the Internet, and then spread wildly! In this regard, we obviously Impotent!"
Off the stage, retailers and game developers sank and thought. Li Zetian's words talked about their pain points, and many people hated the Internet in their hearts.
Li Zetian paused and said: "The times are different, we must make changes, so the Battle.net platform came into being!"
"The Battle.net platform provides paid downloads of games, but we all know that players will eventually download these games from other illegal channels. Therefore, the biggest core competitiveness of the Battle.net platform lies in its location. Battle.net can provide the majority of game players with A platform for online battles! Only genuine paid players can battle online through the Battle.net platform!"
"Here, I seriously declare that if other platforms illegally use games published by Flamingo, we will definitely take legal measures and punish them severely!"
"Players who want to play "Counter-Strike" online must log in to the Battle.net platform, but only the Battle.net platform!!!"
When it came to the last few words, Li Zetian's tone was extraordinarily serious, as if carrying a murderous aura.
Since the Battle.net platform is a paid platform, if it is not blocked, those free platforms will definitely develop rapidly, threatening the status of the Battle.net platform. Isn't it a wedding dress for others? Therefore, Li Zetian emphasized that other platforms cannot use games published by Flamingo, which prevents these platforms from developing and growing.
As a result, the popularity of the Battle.net platform will increase.
As long as third-party game developers are not fools, they will choose to publish their games on the Battle.net platform. The more games there are on the Battle.net platform, the more players will naturally be attracted. If this virtuous cycle continues, the Battle.net platform will become the world's largest game launch platform!
Of course, once the Battle.net platform comes out, there are bound to be imitators. But Li Zetian was very confident in his heart. As long as he brought out the classic games from his previous life, who would compete with him
At this moment, after Li Zetian said this, many game developers' eyes lit up, and at the same time, they also understood the direction of future game development: the era of stand-alone games is gradually receding, and games must be connected to the Internet!
The retailers in the audience looked around and saw that the third-party game developers were about to move closer to Flamingo, their hearts sank, and their faces suddenly became cloudy.
After Li Zetian introduced the Battle.net platform, he then developed and introduced "Red Alert".
In the game "Red Alert", players can collect resources, upgrade buildings, build troops to attack, etc. In fact, they are modified on the basis of "Dune Castle". According to the real country, the confrontation between the two major alliances led by the Soviet Union and the United States For the background, players can freely choose countries, such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, etc...
"Dune Castle" is the first real-time strategy game. Many people in the audience have studied "Dune Castle" in depth, but "Red Alert" still shocked them.
"Red Alert" seems to have raised the real-time strategy game to a new level. Whether it is the graphics, game diversity, balance, story background, sense of substitution, or combat modes such as two-person confrontation and four-person team battle, it is all eye-catching. A bright.
The game game of "Red Alert" is playing on the screen, and Li Zetian acts as the game commentator, telling the story vividly and interestingly. The staff is so fun too.
However, Li Zetian felt that it was nothing. He probably read a lot of game commentaries in his previous life and got some of their characteristics.
Although "Red Alert" is not as shocking as "Counter-Strike", it is also a classic, and many people like it very much now!
The third-party game developers in the audience were very emotional.
"Flamingo Company can grow the Battle.net platform with only two games, "Counter-Strike" and "Red Alert"! If we want to release games in the future, we still have to rely on Flamingo Company!"
"These two games are highly antagonistic and belong to competitive games, and online battles are the core highlight! And "Counter-Strike" and "Red Alert" can only be played online battles on the Battle.net platform, other game platforms It doesn't grow at all."
"As long as there is a genius Chronos Li in the Flamingo Company, we have to stand tall!"
"Hey, who said it wasn't! I just don't know how much revenue the Flamingo Company will receive when we publish the game on the Battle.net platform..."
"It's probably the same as releasing a game on the Flamingo console platform, right?" A game developer said uncertainly.
Li Zetian did not announce at the press conference how much he would charge third-party game developers. This kind of thing obviously depends on the specific company of the other party. If the other company is very famous and the games it develops are very popular, Flamingo will naturally charge them less.
The whole press conference lasted for more than two hours.
After the crowd left, some were happy and some were worried.
But there is no doubt that the Flamingo Company is famous again and will soon shock the entire gaming world!
Counter-Strike and Red Alert are about to take the world by storm!
The Battle.net platform has become something that all brick-and-mortar game retailers talk about.
By the next morning, hundreds of retailers had joined forces to threaten Flamingo.
At this moment, Li Zetian was in the Flamingo Company. He looked at the representatives of several retailers outside the office through the glass window, with a sneer on his face.
Bushnell's face was slightly sad: "Mr. Li, more than 300 retailers are now strongly opposed to the Battle.net platform. They say that once the Battle.net platform goes online, they will collectively remove Flamingo's games! "
