Reborn on the Internet: Starting with Games

Chapter 354 Martial Arts Charge VS World of Warcraft Open Beta
Brother Xiao Ma looked at the materials submitted by these newly recruited employees, especially the reports of the three managers.

The contents are similar. After summary analysis, the outline of the general plan at the Sanya Conference of Century Zongheng Group has become very clear.

Want to invest in e-commerce?It’s not an investment?But what is Beijing?I have never heard of it, but it is probably not easy to be attracted by Chen Hao. Although the soon-to-be-launched Paipai.com is positioned as C2C which is somewhat different from the other party’s B2C, its actions must be accelerated. What is most lacking in the Internet era is time.

Nowadays, blogs are very popular, but they do the opposite and create a 140-character Weibo. Is this useless?If you want short content, blogs also support it, not to mention that there is no precedent abroad.

Nowadays, the model of domestic Internet people has formed a routine, that is, I copy whatever is popular abroad. Some investment institutions also prefer to invest in companies that learn from localization projects.

After the 911 incident, foreign blog websites became popular and became a new news media, which became popular all over the world. Later, various domestic blog websites began to spring up like mushrooms after a rain. Even a website with a moderate scale would be embarrassed to say that it was a blog if it did not have a blog business. Internet.

FaceBook, launched by Zuckerberg in early 2004, became popular across North America from campuses as soon as it was launched, and now has the potential to sweep across social networking sites around the world.

As a result, Chen Hao, a shameless person in China, took advantage of the situation. He changed his skin and went online on Century Friendship Network. He also played a few mini-games. As a result, the blind cats encountered their own mice, and suddenly they soared into the sky and never dropped again. Coming down here made him itch with hatred.

It seems that this kid has been wandering recently, and he naturally started to innovate on Weibo. Someone volunteered to be a pawn to test the depth of the river ahead. Of course, Xiao Ma was very happy to see the result.

However, he also wanted to disgust the other party, so he opened alex and entered weibo.com. He found that someone had already logged in first and had been preempted, which was a pity.

The first two were easy to understand, but he couldn't understand what Chen Hao wanted to do except for the layout of the mobile phone.

Anyone walking on the street today will know that Nokia is the unshakable market leader in the field of mobile phones today. Several other mobile phone manufacturers, whether Samsung or Sony Ericsson, are giants with tens of billions or hundreds of billions. He wanted to eat more from their mouths, and even saying that he was like a mantis with his arms like a chariot was just a compliment.

Tell me, you, a game maker, are using mobile phones. What’s the point of using them?

Can these online games be played on mobile phones?

It seems that Chen Hao is just a guy who has had a few bad lucks. He accidentally stepped on a few opportunities and thought he could conquer the world.

It was quite good. If he wanted to make him die, he had to make him crazy first. He felt that Century Zongheng wouldn't be able to live long if he continued to mess around like this.

Brother Xiao Ma calmed down and decided to focus on his own business, which was to get Paipai.com online as soon as possible.

Players are the purest group. Poaching and recruiting have nothing to do with them.

They only care about the stability of the environment in which they play games, and it is enough to provide them with spiritual entertainment services.

As long as it doesn't delay them from playing games, it doesn't matter if there's hail, earthquakes or floods outside.

But most players are constantly busy with time and money.

There is a lyric that says it well,
". But when I have money, I don't have time. But when I have time, I don't have money."

The first half of the sentence refers to the hard-working working class, while the latter refers to the hard-working student party. Of course, the rich second generation is not included in this group.
On May 5, Wuxia World officially launched its commercial operation model.

The time point is also very subtle. It happens to be two days after reaching full level. Due to the effect of the level seal, nearly one-third of the players in the game have reached level 60.

Many ways to play are open, including 60 new martial arts arenas at level 2, 5 dungeons, 2 raids, new equipment, new BOSS, and many ways to play are waiting for them to explore.

As a result, at this moment, Nima Game charged.This is the shrewdness of Century Interactive Entertainment. Why did Miracle dare to charge fees when it launched in the past? It was due to the low competitive pressure at that time. Apart from the popularity of Legend, there were basically no other competitors of the same type, and players had little choice. If you are curious, spend money to try it, but once you fall into the trap, you will not be able to get out.

This is no longer possible. Various online games are emerging one after another. Chen Hao can only make the game free for public testing first, allowing players to incur enough sunk costs, and then start charging.

Why do we need to get equipment sets?Why does the martial arts arena generate reputation points, which can be exchanged for high-level equipment?Why do dungeons drop some high-level materials that can be used to build more powerful equipment? There is even a very small chance of dropping peerless-level materials in the raid.

They are all hooks one after another, with only one purpose. Do you want to continue playing?Gotta pay!
Just like peeing in a public toilet, I finally found the feeling after brewing for a long time, but there was a bang on the door. This public toilet is timed. If you want to continue squatting, you have to pay for renewal. Most people can only obey. After all, everyone can I can't stand this situation of pulling half and leaving half.

One reason.

Fortunately, the fees charged by Wuxia World are relatively reasonable, with a 25-yuan point card and a 50-yuan monthly subscription, which even students can afford.

Especially after charging, these players found that whether it was due to the charge or server expansion, although the servers were still full, there was no queue.

These players who are accustomed to the world of martial arts are a little uncomfortable for a while.

There was even a guy at one of the Internet cafes who was carrying fried rice and drinks on the plane. He was stunned when he discovered this situation. He didn't know whether to play games or eat first. He was in a dilemma.

Don't quit the game. It's a card issue. Just quit the game. Just in case you queue up again later. I can eat fried rice for half an hour watching variety shows on weekdays. This guy exploded into a small universe. He was less than 3 years old under his stormy clouds. It took just a few minutes to show off, and it was considered a eating record!

After confirming a sentence, people are forced to come out.

At the same time, it was all intentional. World of Warcraft also launched a free public beta on the same day. Enemies met on a narrow road.

Luo Zhixiang, Jay Chou, Aaron Kwok, Edison Chen, Jerry Yan, Jolin Tsai, five kings and one queen, plus co-branded Adidas Nike to launch theme T-shirts.

Ninetowns spent a lot of money on promotion and marketing and it was not in vain. In addition to the original Blizzard players, it also attracted a large number of passerby players, all wanting to see who World of Warcraft was, which was said to be comparable to the world of martial arts.

This also includes the player group who came through the internal beta test.

If the mage has always been Blizzard's biological daughter, then there was one profession that became the illegitimate son of Blizzard's father during the closed beta, and that was the shaman.

This profession is at its peak when it debuts. Whether it is PVE or PVP, it has become a unique existence in the closed beta. It not only has spells but also physical damage. The combination of the two and Wind Fury will put aside all the daughters of Blizzard.

There is a similar profession in the Alliance, which is the Paladin who believes in light.

Warriors, hunters, thieves and other professions each have their own advantages and disadvantages, and balance is difficult to describe.

On the day the closed beta ended, many people still failed to reach level 40. On that day, the official announced a major event called "Doomsday Judgment". A large number of Burning Legion fell from the sky, and the major BOSSs took turns to appear, killing the six main characters. The city burned into a sea of ​​fire, and all the players were like leeks, cutting off one crop after another. Then the time came, all Warcraft data was cleared, and the closed beta ended.

In this open beta of World of Warcraft, the character level limit has been raised from level 40 to level 45. In terms of dungeons, there is an additional dungeon called Zul'Farrak from the Scarlet Monastery.

This gives the players of the Alliance of Tribes, who are fighting day and night in Nanhai Town and Arathi Basin, a new location to compete for.

The loud horn sounded for the Nth time.
All players once again stand on the same starting line and are gearing up to start their Warcraft journey.
