my return 2002

Chapter 199
After the player successfully logs in to the server, what he sees is a 3-minute animated short film, which can be regarded as the inducement of the battle between righteousness and evil.

Originally, Shen Lang planned to show the short film in the form of a live-action TV series, but unfortunately the time was too tight, and he couldn't find a suitable film and television company to take over, so he had to make it into a CG animation and show it to the players.

Of course, the production of this CG animation is quite sophisticated. Shen Lang made a special trip to Pengcheng and found Universal Digital to produce it. Although the entire short film is only 3 minutes long, it cost Shen Lang a full 300 million yuan. Frames are the smell of money.

However, judging from the player's feedback, the 300 million RMB was well spent, and the most popular post in the multiplayer game zone has been pushed down by the discussion post on the battle between righteousness and evil.

Of course, no matter how good the CG animation is, it can only be regarded as an introduction. It is the content of this expansion pack that really determines whether players will buy it.

After going through a series of missions and levels, the player finally came to the main battlefield of the battle between righteousness and evil - the map of Lingtianfeng battlefield.

Although it seems to be just a map update, it actually adds PVP gameplay.

In addition to the once-a-month Battle of Righteousness and Demons, Ling Tianfeng is usually a customizable dungeon space. In this dungeon space, players can customize the room to compete with other players, and neither party will have evil points. In addition to heads-up, there are also 5V5 team mode, 10V10 chaos mode, and 30V30 gang mode.

Players who usually have grievances and gangs finally have a battlefield where they have no scruples to make a fight, and they flock to Ling Tianfeng.

As for the gameplay of the battle of righteousness and evil, it is even more exciting. Players can choose to join the faction of righteousness or evil, without being restricted by sects. The most important thing is that players who kill opponents in the battle of righteousness and demons can gain certain sects Contribution, the sect has also opened up a position system, and players can obtain sect positions when their contribution reaches a certain level.

After obtaining the sect position, the player can get an hourly salary every hour, and the highest position will be issued with more copper coins, and it will be upgraded to above the sect offering, as well as blueprints for making rare items such as cloaks and double mounts.

Of course, these rare items are limited in time, and the duration is only one month. The higher the position, the more advanced the equipment blueprint can be obtained.

Ordinary players' enthusiasm for the battle of righteousness and evil is also unprecedentedly high. After all, the copper coins issued by sect positions every hour are a lot of money. In Jianyu Jianghu, copper coins are the only hard currency.

Compared with casual players, gangs put in a lot of energy in the battle of righteousness and evil, especially those powerful gangs. The gang leaders of these gangs are basically high-ranking local players in the game. Rare items bring not only It’s not only the improvement of attributes, but also the display of status, especially the design of these rare items in the game is extremely attractive. Take that double carriage as an example, and take your sister papers and walk on the streets of the main city. A sense of accomplishment that cannot be described in words.

So those gangs who usually get along with each other began to contact each other, and agreed to choose the same side in the battle of righteousness and evil. As for the hostile gangs, they also agreed to resolve their usual grievances together during the battle of righteousness and evil.

In YY voice, many gang administrators have already started to mobilize early.

Of course, in order to avoid the problem that everyone chooses the same faction and no one can get enough contribution, the system will also balance the number of both sides. If one side has an overwhelming number of people, it will restrict subsequent players from continuing to choose a larger number of camps. Automatically assigned to the camp with fewer people.

In fact, there are quite a few other games about the gameplay of confrontation between players and players. Legendary Sand Attack is a very classic PVP gameplay.

It’s just that the legendary sand attack is just a confrontation between a few gang players. Many civilian players may have played Legendary for several years and have never participated in the sand attack battle. It bears the words "Sabac" in big characters.

And Jianyu Jianghu's Battle of Righteousness and Demons gameplay includes almost all players. Whether it is an individual player or a gang player, in the intricate battlefield, death can be resurrected in the camp. Blind cats can always meet dead mice and get some contributions. , Even if you get into the lowest-level position, you can get a salary, which greatly improves the sense of participation of ordinary players.

After a few days of fermentation, on October 10th, starting from five o'clock in the afternoon, all the servers in Jianyu Jianghu began to be full, and players flocked in, making preparations before the station, and the prices of various potions, food, and wine were high. There has been an increase in the rate of development, and the best equipment with good attributes has also increased.

According to YY's background server, the number of logged-in users of YY has also hit a record high, with 180 million online at the same time. In addition to most of the Jianyu Jianghu players, there are also a large number of players from other games who come to "watch the game", although they can't see it. Yes, but even just listening can feel the atmosphere of the battlefield.

The time soon came to 07:30, and the Lingtianfeng battlefield map was already crowded with players. In Inspur Technology, Shen Lang and Wang Tao's faces also began to look a little dignified. The load of each server has exceeded 80%, and they can only log in by restricting new accounts. way to relieve server pressure.

At eight o'clock, the Lingtian Peak battlefield opened on time. During the [-]-hour preparation time, players began to choose the evil camp. Some servers quickly triggered the balance mechanism, and some players could only choose the camp with a small number of people, which also interrupted Deployment of some gangs.

Since it was the first time to participate in such a large-scale player confrontation event, both the leader of the gang and the individual players waited for the end of the preparation time with excitement.

Finally, at quarter past eight, the screen in the Lingtian Peak battlefield camp disappeared, and the players rushed out of the camp screaming. The two sides soon met in Broken Sword Valley, and the players rushing in front quickly turned into streaks of white light and disappeared on the ground .

Although they died inexplicably, the players were not discouraged. Instead, they continued to rush to the battlefield more quickly, secreting adrenaline hormones one by one, and they were extremely excited.

In such a large-scale battlefield, even the most equipped players cannot resist a combined attack. Soon, some players discovered that besides Broken Sword Valley, there are two other paths that can bypass Broken Sword. narrow terrain.

Soon there were gangs organized elite players to sneak around Broken Sword Valley, and broke the stalemate directly from behind. As the map behind gradually opened up, the battles between players were no longer limited to team battles with thousands of troops. Elite players They also began to show their talents, and there were fierce confrontations between elite player teams, and ordinary players could also find their own position in group battles.

Although the scene was overwhelming, the players were in high spirits. Many players couldn't remember how many times they had died, and they still rushed to the battlefield happily.

From [-]:[-] to [-]:[-], it was a full hour of the battle between righteousness and evil. At the end, many players even glanced at the time in confusion, feeling that all this passed too fast, and they hadn't had enough yet. .

Players whose enthusiasm has not been fully vented began to post bragging and farting on various game forums. For a while, posts with keywords such as Sword Rain Jianghu, Battle of Righteousness and Demon, etc. could gain extremely high popularity.

The rest of the game makers are also very jealous of this, and some game makers are already analyzing the elements of the success of Jian Yujianghu's expansion pack, and are planning to use it directly in their own games.

Shi Yuzhu is one of them. For the game Jianyu Jianghu, Shi Yuzhu likes it very much. He is also a loyal player of Jianyu Jianghu himself. He is helping him level up on shift, and his equipment is also the top one in the server, but his operation is really not flattering.

Shi Yuzhu participated in the whole process of this battle of righteousness and evil. Until the last moment, Shi Yuzhu put down the mouse in his hand and immediately called all the members of the [Zhengtu] project team over.

Shi Yuzhu excitedly said to the crowd: "This is what I've always wanted, the top level confrontation between players!"

"As long as we can grasp the essence of half of it, [Zhengtu] will achieve unprecedented success!"

The production team of [Journey] was quickly arranged by Shi Yuzhu to watch the video of him just participating in the battle of righteousness and evil. It only took a few minutes for the team members to go from being indifferent at the beginning to being silent at the end.

On the other side, the grand Chen Tianqiao is also paying attention to tonight's battle between righteousness and evil, but he has no habit of playing games, and all he looks at are statistics.

After a long while, Chen Tianqiao said to Tan Qunzhao: "How many Legends are currently online at the highest level in attacking sand?"

Tan Qunzhao shook his head bitterly: "It's less than 50."

Chen Tianqiao was a little puzzled: "Why is there such a big difference? It is also a confrontation between players, and the legendary sand attack does not seem to have much improvement compared to the usual simultaneous online?"

Tan Qunzhao thought for a while, and analyzed: "The main reason is that Jianyu Jianghu has added the setting of sect positions this time, so that all players have the motivation to participate in the battle of righteousness and evil, and legends will lose their equipment when they die. There is no penalty for death in the battle of righteousness and evil, and there is a contribution reward for killing, so players are naturally enthusiastic."

Chen Tianqiao frowned and flipped through the update logs of the War of Righteousness and Demons, pointing to one of them and asked Tan Qunzhao: "I remember you said that the reason why the number of online users in Jianyu Jianghu remains high is mainly due to its economic circulation system. Such a martial position pays an hourly salary, so many players can get the money, won't it destroy the game's economic system?"

Tan Qunzhao analyzed: "Actually, it is not the case. It seems that the position of the sect pays a lot of hourly salary, but don't forget that many deputy positions in Jianyujianghu are very expensive. When players enter the battlefield of Ling Tianfeng, they will more or less eat some temporary salary. Attributes, as well as the consumption of various pills are also very astonishing."

"So not only will the hourly salaries of sect positions not lead to inflation in the game, but it can offset the inflationary deflation caused by a large amount of consumption. I think that the hourly salaries of each sect position are carefully calculated."

Chen Tianqiao fell silent when he heard the words. He is a complete layman when it comes to games. He still knows a little about economics. He naturally knows that the harm caused by inflation and deflation is far worse than inflation. However, the team of Jianyujianghu can think so comprehensively, which is really subversive. his understanding of the game.

After a while, Chen Tianqiao sighed, and then said to Tan Qunzhao.

"Because the popularity of Sword Rain Jianghu, the battle between good and evil, is high, let's arrange the closed beta of Age of Heroes as soon as possible."

Tan Qunzhao nodded: "Well, I have already arranged for this weekend."

On the other hand, the battle of righteousness and evil had an extremely strong impact on Xiao Ma.

This is the large-scale MMO online game in his mind, and the QQ Hall really makes him lose his energy.

As an old partner, Zhang Zhidong could see Brother Xiao Ma's depression at a glance, so he could only comfort him: "No way, who made us start late, it's good to use QQ Tang to accumulate some operating experience."

Brother Xiao Ma could only nod helplessly: "Can QQ Hall be launched a year ago?"

"The research and development is almost done, and the internal test will start next month." Zhang Zhidong secretly smiled bitterly. What research and development, it is basically a copy. It took four months to copy and modify. At this time, Penguin's game development Ability is really indescribable.

Inspur Technology.

Shen Lang called for a midnight snack to reward the employees who were still working overtime, holding skewers one by one, drinking small beers, and shouting.

"Long live the boss!"

Shen Lang clapped his hands to draw everyone's attention to himself.

"It's been hard work for everyone during this time. I believe everyone has seen the feedback from the players, which shows that our hard work has not been in vain. Of course, my promise before is still valid. If you have better ideas before the year, you can also hurry up. After perfecting the plan, it will depend on who gets the reward of up to [-] yuan in the last month and a half."

The employees groaned.

"Oh, boss, you are really good at it, you don't even let us have a supper."

"That's right, it's too hateful, alas, for 10 yuan, I admit it!"

"Think too much, the 10 yuan must be mine."

The employees teased each other, and then they got rid of the supper, and then returned to their respective posts and continued to work overtime.

Wang Tao followed Shen Lang to the office.

"Mr. Shen, I just saw a lot of players' reactions. The battle between righteousness and evil is once a month. Is the cubicle a bit too long? Do you want to change it to once every half a month? Or once a week?"

Shen Lang waved his hand directly: "Current conditions are not yet mature, the level of players is generally relatively low now, and the output of copper coins is also very limited, otherwise we wouldn't need to get an hourly salary for this sect position, look at point card transactions In the system, a battle between good and evil has already increased the price of copper coins by 30%, and too frequent battles will kill players' enthusiasm for this gameplay, and even cause boredom, which is not worth the candle."

Shen Lang patted Wang Tao's shoulder: "The players' opinions need to be listened to, but we can't do everything according to what they say. How to balance requires us to make a choice. This is also the standard to measure the operation level of a game."

Wang Tao scratched his head in embarrassment.

In fact, Shen Lang is very satisfied with Wang Tao. After all, Jian Yu Jiang Hu is only the first game operated by Inspur Technology. Shen Lang has enough patience and time to let Wang Tao and his team grow.
