Chapter 69: News from the Cologne Game Show

  In mid-June, more than one month has passed since the release of "Meteor Butterfly Sword". According to the "Meteor Butterfly Sword" fermented by word-of-mouth, the total platform sales have exceeded 1.5 million.

   A jaw-dropping number. At the same time, the major video screens and live broadcast platforms have also been screened by "Meteor Butterfly Sword", just like the live broadcast or the "Meteor Butterfly Sword" video, which comes with two or three percent of the traffic.

   But behind the fierceness, the sales of the game are slowly decreasing. Although the sales are still rising, the increase is not high.

   This is also related to the game only needs to be bought out once, but unexpectedly, the game has also sold about 150,000 copies overseas. Although it did not show the previous famine performance, it is also very good.

   The key is the evaluation of the overseas platform of the steam platform. The comprehensive positive rating is 89%. The negative comments are partly due to the game server and translation issues.

   For this, Longzu Studio has contacted outsourcing translators for overseas translation of the game, not the previous machine translation.

   At the same time, the server will also build overseas servers to ensure that players can play smooth games.

As for the project of the new game, Long Zu Studio has not yet prepared to establish a project. Although there is a large amount of funds in the studio account, their main task is to maintain the game and carry out continuous update and maintenance BUG. When the game initially stabilizes, they will immediately begin to develop blood transfusion projects such as jewelry skins.

In addition, the page game also made Chu He a little surprised. With the legendary revenue of the Red Moon getting lower and lower, even the first run of the water last month showed that there was no 100 million yuan, which proved the heat of this game. And the vitality has entered the last year.

  However, several new war page games developed by Page Game Studio on strategy have achieved good revenue, and one of them has reached 30 million in the first week.

   Although Chu Dantang, who was in charge of Chu River, did not compare with the legend of Red Moon, but in comparison with the development cost of more than 2 million and the publicity cost of only 3 million, this is also a very exaggerated number.

  If it is usually, Chuhe will pay more attention to it, but now Chuhe's whole mind has been put on the "Jianghu" project.

   Battle Royale mode has been polished by the team, as well as perfect settings, has produced a forward-looking test version.

  Finally, according to the settings of the Chuhe team, the player will be on the same airship after entering the game. The airship will fly to the end along the side of the map, and the route of this airship is not determined in each round.

   Players can choose to fall from the airship at any time period, go to any location on the map you can reach, search for martial arts and techniques and equipment to arm themselves.

   At the same time, in order to strengthen some not so powerful, that is, rookie game experience, in addition to the elements of combat, it also strengthened the elements of the collection and cultivation, martial arts and mental methods are divided into three levels.

  Common, excellent and legendary three levels, and according to different levels, martial arts mind method is divided into several different moves.

   For example, ordinary martial arts only need to be picked up, but the excellent ones are divided into two types: ‘up and down’, and the legendary ones are divided into ‘up, middle and down’.

  Obtain one of these volumes and only have some abilities. Only when they are all collected can they become peerless martial arts.

  On the map, in order to allow some players who are not good at fighting to have a game experience, the bushes in some scenes will be particularly high, as long as the player enters and chooses to lie down, it is difficult to see if you don’t pay attention.

   At the same time, there will be bunkers such as trash cans, straw piles, etc. that players can enter.

Finally, in addition to the original settings, Chu He also added the element of poison. For example, players can choose to apply poison to items on the ground, and then hide themselves quietly, waiting for an enemy to enter the house and start searching for items At the moment, touching poisonous items will immediately be poisoned.

   If there is no antidote, or detoxification exercises, it will continue to bleed.

   Of course even the most powerful poison can only cause the poisoned person to drop one-twentieth of the blood per second for five seconds.

   This will allow some weaker players to use strategy to defeat the enemy. If the enemy is poisoned, you can only beat it, then you can only play ‘inferior in skill, willing to defy the enemy’.

  I don't know the specific situation, but Chu He and everyone felt very interesting about the team test in the company.

  But this is only what they think, will it really be liked by the players, and can only be understood when the feedback of the players is collected.

   Maybe some of the elements are not enough, or some of the elements are redundant, these are all possible.

   "Mr. Chu, we have passed the Cologne game show!" Chu He, who is currently trying out the game, just dropped his mouse and heard Xu Chang shouting next to him in a very pleasant tone.

   Cologne Game Show, currently one of the world's mainstream game shows, including EA, Ubisoft and a series of international manufacturers will bring the latest works with the signature games to participate in the game show.

   is usually held in August, but for some reasons this year, the Cologne Game Show was directly advanced two months in advance. In addition to the game companies directly invited by the official, many game manufacturers will actively apply.

   However, the application conditions are very demanding, and in addition, it needs to be reviewed. Except for several large manufacturers such as Wangyi and Penguin in China, basically no manufacturers have participated.

   And most of these manufacturers such as Penguin and Wangyi also took online games to participate, rather than the mainstream stand-alone games at the show.

As for console games, this seems to be an untouchable place for domestic game manufacturers~www.wuxiahere.com~ got accurate news, in addition to us, there are Penguin, Wangyi, Shengda and Perfect World We will participate in the eighth city, but only Tianhe Network is the main player in the single game. "Xu Chang said with an excited expression on his face.

   Even the glory of the domestic stand-alone series of swordsman series has never participated in a game exhibition with international influence, and more of them are at the head of the exhibition held here.

   The main reason why Chuhe's Tianhe Network was approved was still in this step of "Famine".

   "Notify Zhang Ke that they will take our "Jianghu" and "Famine" with their "Meteor Butterfly Sword"." Chu He was also very excited.

As for the Legend of Red Moon and the story of Dan Tang, although he didn’t like it or hate it, Chu He also had to admit that if he really took these two games to the Cologne exhibition, it is estimated that domestic single player players would explode. It is estimated that the word-of-mouth that is accumulating is about to make another big dive.

   What's more important is that this time, according to industry news, NetEase, Penguin and other manufacturers, the games participating in the exhibition are all full of Chinese characteristics.

Well, for example, the game where Penguin participated in the exhibition is called "Penguin Fantasy", which focuses on the Chinese style, but in fact it is a game developed by the neon country studio, but it was later acquired by Penguin, and the scene of the game is revealed everywhere. It is not the cultural details of China, but the cultural details of neon.

  Wanyi there is the famous martial arts novelist Wen Rui. The martial arts online game based on the novel of the same name, "Four Great Divine Catchers". As of the project name, no wind has been heard so far.

   And Shengda and the eighth city, with the perfect world where the security measures are also done well, the specific game is not clear.
