There is a Problem with This Online Game Planning

Chapter 505: This tm is to block the gun for Pokémon! !

Chapter 505 This tm is to block guns for Pokémon!

Community on.

The post about the double release of the game hangs high on the first page.

Because "Pokémon" is also confirmed to release double versions.

The demo of "Monster Hunter" has not yet started...

This made the players feel more and more uncomfortable.

so.

There are more and more players discussing.

Plus, there were indeed a lot of details in the meeting that I didn’t explain clearly, because everyone was confused at the time.

So they are paying more and more attention to the dual-version release model that appeared for the first time in this game circle.

As for the evaluation of this model... I can only say that there are a lot of bad reviews.

"I don't know if my understanding is correct, this double version means... Is it the same game, split into two parts to sell?"

"Yes! That should be the meaning, but there are some differences between the two versions, 15% of the content is different?"

"Don't talk about the difference! Eighty-five percent of the content is the same! But the price is the same! Isn't this a waste of money? Other games can at most have a DLC, this guy, now 80% of the content They are the same, but they are sold separately!"

"I wanted to say it yesterday, but today's new work of "Pokémon" is also like this. It feels really outrageous."

""Pokémon" is actually not bad, it is more reasonable than "Monster Hunter". According to the disclosed gameplay, Pokémon can be exchanged, and the main service of the double version is this function, the purpose is to cause differences between players , if you want to complete the illustrated book, you have to exchange Pokémon with different players to fill the illustrated book, which is still meaningful.

But for the double version of "Monster Hunter", I don't think it is necessary to see the gameplay. "

"It feels like a waste of money, and too much content is an excuse. Is Linmu Studio floating?"

"Well... I am most concerned about this part. Zhu Nianqiao from the host department said, I hope you can experience a different hunting experience with your friends. If it doesn't work, we will find a way. What does it mean? Forced online?"

"I don't understand. It was okay yesterday, but today I feel more and more wrong. Does Linmu Studio have a detailed introduction to the text content of the dual version release?"

"In short, I feel that Linmu Studio is really a bit drifting, and it's too dark! I don't want Linmu Carnival to leave bad memories, it's so annoying!"

"The trial game hasn't been opened yet, maybe because I'm afraid of being scolded?"

"Come to a great **** to explain!"

"I just want to make more money, there is nothing to say."

"..."

Post below.

Although the players looked at the pleasant experience brought to them by the carnival two days ago in Linmu Workshop

Did not scold too directly or too harshly.

But the players really don't accept it, after all, it doesn't sound very worthwhile.

The difference between the two versions is just that little...but the price is the same.

To hunt all monsters, buy two versions.

But the little new content in another version is not worth the price at all...

So, is this forcing full collection players to buy both versions?

is it necessary?

This game is not like Pokémon, and it does not develop exchange elements.

If you bought one version and wanted to hunt another version of monsters, but you couldn’t hunt them... the feeling of cheating money comes from the surface.

Although some players also said, Linmu Studio explained that different monsters have independent maps, and they can be online with friends. If they hunt successfully, they can also get special currency and unlock new costumes.

But if you want to hunt another version of monsters, do you have to go online with friends? That's too much, right? Didn't Linmu Studio consider the fact that players have no friends?

Moreover, the idea is quite good.

Pokémon double version release is to exchange Pokémon with different players to fill the illustrated book, and to serve the two core gameplays of collecting and exchanging.

The dual version of Monster Hunter is released to encourage players to hunt monsters that their own version does not have online with their friends. Then, according to the meeting, if the online player successfully hunts, they can also get special currency from the settlement and return to their own version , to unlock new costumes.

But collecting and fighting monsters are not the same thing!

So...basically all players cannot accept it!

Finally, because of the dual release of "Monster Hunter", the dual release of "Pokémon" has become acceptable...

No, it should be said that there is no discussion about the release of two versions of "Pokémon".

Because all the firepower was sucked away by "Monster Hunter".

…

"This is a bad move!"

Sky fox.

After a short period of confusion, Li Guangsheng opened the forum, saw the player's evaluation, and sighed.

He thought that people would brag about everything Linmu Studio did.

But the truth is unexpected.

Players can't accept the double version, at least the double version of "Monster Hunter" is released, and the players can't accept it.

"Didn't you just praise that Linmu Studio can really make money?"

Mou Feng squinted at him: "Just now you shouted a genius idea."

"I was subconscious..."

Li Guangsheng was a little embarrassed when he heard the words: "And it sounds really good! One game, two copies..."

"It's not that simple."

Mou Feng shook his head and explained: "In fact, the model of releasing double versions is not in line with business logic. You can see it from the players' reactions. Although we know that doing two versions will not only not reduce the workload, but also More! Just seeing them announce that the kanban girls are different and the monsters are different makes my scalp tingle. Although it is limited to two maps, it is not easy to do. What's more, you have to consider the problem of online settlement with players of different versions .

This must have been a lot of work! And in the end, you also saw that even if so much work was put in, the players would not accept it, because this mode itself has problems. "

"This..." Li Guangsheng glanced at the forum.

"Even if another version of the monster is packaged as a DLC, it is estimated that players will accept it. After all, this is a common practice in the industry... But now, players are faced with two versions that are not much different but released at the same time. The room now comes out and says that a game has the volume of two games, and players will feel a loss."

Mou Feng shook his head slightly: "Because this involves a simple truth, doing this will make players feel that the game they bought is not the full version. After all, the other version does have monsters that this version does not have. You said the size Big? Less content is less content...It makes players feel like they are forced to buy a double version, you understand?"

"Then why would they do that?"

Li Guangsheng frowned slightly, he understood, but he was even more puzzled.

"I don't know, because it's clearly thankless... Maybe they really floated? They shouldn't be."

Mou Feng shook his head lightly, but couldn't give an answer.

Li Guangsheng: "..."

"Let's go to the carnival tomorrow to see, maybe there will be a new theory."

Mou Feng thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't figure it out. The only thing that came to his mind was...the other party made a wrong decision.

This is the greatest possibility.

But he thought it was impossible.

In the end, he could only leave such a sentence.

Li Guangsheng didn't say anything after hearing the words, but just nodded.

…

"Hahaha, idiot!"

Peria, Headquarters.

The Deputy Chief He watched the discussion of the players in the local community on the screen, and laughed outright.

'Forest Carnival' has been prepared for a long time.

Of course, it is not limited to the attention of domestic players.

Overseas players are also concerned.

After all, several online games under Linmu Studio are also very popular overseas.

After the grand opening of the carnival, there were constant meet-and-greet meetings, and new versions of many of its online games were revealed, plus a bunch of new games.

It's hard not to pay attention.

And after seeing such enthusiasm for holding a player event in Linmu Studio, you said that Fufu He is not envious, that is a lie...

He is very envious!

However, I am envious.

He still wished that Linmu Studio would die immediately...

After all, the switch of Linmu Studio seized the share of the Peria handheld, and he took the position of the big brother of the handheld.

certainly.

He didn't dare to say this clearly... After all, "Call of Duty" has landed on all platforms, and it's still very popular.

But deep down in his heart, he really hoped that the other party would die immediately.

What he never expected was that he was just thinking about it, but he really saw the other party's death behavior...

A game! Released in two versions!

Hahaha!

When Linmu Studio announced this, he laughed out loud on the spot.

I have to say that the model is quite good, earning double money, he wants to like this idea!

But they also don't think about why other manufacturers don't do this!

What a beautiful idea!

But see? The players scolded directly!

After all, Peria dare not do this!

He also wants to sell two copies of one game, but is this possible?

Innocent!

Hehe, wait for death!

Deputy He watched the overwhelming discussion about "Monster Hunter" on the screen, and took a sip of his wine in satisfaction, feeling that he had never felt so happy.

And the players, including the deputy chief, don't seem to pay much attention to Pokémon at the moment...

…

Time soon came to the fourth day of the "Forest Carnival".

After the announcement of "Pokémon" last night, the discussion about the game's dual-version release model has remained high.

Although most players were not so direct in their criticism because of the Forest Carnival.

But if you care about it, you must care about it.

After all, this thing does sound like a scam.

So the audience who came to the carnival today are not so excited.

After all, players are human beings, and they have different psychological expectations when facing different objects.

For example, if Tianhu said that the game will be released in two versions, it may be fine if the players scold it, and they will not remember it at all.

But Linmu Studio, which has almost no black spots, suddenly has the name of cheating money on its head. This is indeed a big blow to the players who support Linmu Studio.

What's more, the players participating in the forest carnival are almost all core players.

Even for a diehard like Li Yu.

It is inevitable that the mood will be a little low.

but.

Fortunately...Limwood Studio doesn't seem to be playing dead.

As soon as the audience at the forest carnival came to the door today, they were notified by the staff specially guarding the door that there would be a special briefing session.

Lin Yao will come to the stage to personally answer questions about the dual-version release of "Monster Hunter".

Including many viewers who got up early to watch the live broadcast of the forest carnival. When they opened the live broadcast room, they also saw that the title of the live broadcast room had changed.

Today, in front of all the processes, a special briefing session was inserted.

The special briefing will explain the issues related to the dual version release of "Monster Hunter".

This directly shocked all players.

And the situation of the venue.

It was completely different from the previous few days.

All the players who came to the venue almost didn't queue up for a trial game, but all ran to the main stage.

Didn't arrive at eight o'clock.

The auditorium on the main stage is full.

See and know.

Players' attention to the double version.

Offstage.

Li Guangsheng and Mou Feng also came.

The two sat in the middle and looked at the stage.

"Tell me, how will they solve this problem this time?" Li Guangsheng asked suddenly.

"Two ways."

Mou Feng thought for a while and replied: "The first way is to pretend to be dead, but this way is useless. After all, the special explanation sessions are now open, so there is only one way... Try to let more players accept the double version , mainly highlighting the difference between the two versions, not requiring players to buy the two versions, and then relying on Lin Yao's personality charm to minimize the impact of the matter. After all, Carnival is quite successful, and there are still players who are willing to buy it. "

"Then what is the success rate of doing this?"

Li Guangsheng asked curiously.

"do not know."

Mou Feng shook his head lightly: "But it's probably enough, if you really do this, after this time, Lin Yao's reputation may also be affected."

"Hmm..." Li Guangsheng looked towards the stage, and after a moment of silence, at this moment that should have been a joyful moment, for some reason, he couldn't laugh.

After all, no one knows what the future holds, and no one knows what players want.

Many times, what I take for granted may suffer backlash as soon as it is announced...

This kind of thing happened to him too.

Seeing that Li Guangsheng didn't speak, Mou Feng glanced at him curiously, but didn't think much about it, and quickly turned his head to look at the stage.

soon.

Point to eight o'clock with time.

Lin Yao came out.

No bells and whistles this time around.

Lin Yao appeared directly in front of everyone and stood on the stage.

"Sorry... Regarding the dual versions of "Monster Hunter", some staff members didn't make it clear, so I will add it."

As soon as Lin Yao came out, she apologized.

Her act of apologizing as soon as she came out caused some commotion.

There were also more noisy voices from the audience.

After taking a deep breath, Lin Yao continued: "The day before yesterday, "Monster Hunter" caused a lot of trouble to everyone."

"Yesterday, I summarized some of the most puzzling questions you have. Next, I will answer them one by one, and then there will be a question-and-answer session at the end. If you still have doubts, you can add them later."

"First of all, the problem is that the monsters in the two versions are different. If you want to hunt all the monsters, you need to buy two versions, although the staff explained.

But it’s really not clear enough, let me explain again... Players don’t need to buy two versions of the game, because buying a single version can also hunt all monsters! "

"???"

When Lin Yao said this, everyone had question marks on their heads.

Lin Yao said softly: "To put it simply, we are in the process of merging intensively, and this part of the game content will be pushed in the form of free updates later, which means—

No matter which version the player buys, they will receive a free update push one month after the game is released. At that time, the independent two-person monster map will be updated and expanded, adding all the monsters of another version.

That is to say, players who purchase a single version will be able to hunt monsters in another version alone after one month. After one month, the two versions will have no difference in game content except for the appearance of some NPCs.

This is a problem caused by the large amount of content. It really can't fit... We can only update it online. "

"what!?"

When Mou Feng heard this, he couldn't help but make a sound.

What does this mean?

And the audience in the audience was also messy.

"Then why wait a month?"

finally.

Some players couldn't help but ask.

"In this regard, our original intention was to encourage players to communicate online. We also mentioned at the meeting that day that if you help another player hunt two monsters that are unique for a limited time online, you will get a special currency and unlock the NPC shop. Special clothing."

Lin Yao looked at the player and explained: "This is the purpose of our dual version, and this gameplay will be retained after the update push is completed."

"In addition, everyone should understand the update patch push date I just mentioned."

Lin Yao continued: "We don't intend to force players to buy dual versions. Our original intention is to encourage players to strengthen communication. We also said at the time that the content of this game will be very unexpected. This game will not There will be no additional content in the future, because the DLC we plan is already included in it. If it is only a light player, I can guarantee that the content can fully support the patch push.

Of course, if the player strongly wants to experience all the monsters of the two versions at the first time, and can’t wait for the online update, we also have another plan, that is-buy the digital version of the game, if the player buys both versions together, the game price will be directly With a 50% discount, players only need to pay for one game to get two versions of the game. "

Senseless.

Mou Feng and Li Guangsheng were dumbfounded.

Especially the former.

The player is of course relieved. Although he vaguely felt that something was wrong, he was basically relieved when he heard Lin Yao's words.

Understood.

So this is ah.

The content volume is too large.

Then encourage online play. The double version release is just a gimmick. After all, the cover is different, and some NPCs are different, just like the collector's edition.

And waited for Lin Yao to apologize again, and then said that she would consider continuing to update the patch in the future, after adding a switchable function to the Kanban girl's skin.

The players have all laughed.

But Mou Feng was still confused.

no.

Why? ? ?

If this continues, what is the point of having dual versions?

Just to encourage players to connect?

Damn it! How much extra work does tm have to do? His scalp tingles just thinking about it!

And there is a killer move.

Direct price 50% off!

So why?

Mou Feng couldn't figure it out, and he didn't believe Lin Yao's explanation either.

Encouraging players to connect online is too expensive...

And the other side.

Lin Yao is still explaining.

And with several key issues are explained clearly.

All players come alive.

After Lin Yao said that the demos of "Monster Hunter" and "Pokémon" will be released today, all the players immediately cheered...

Now comes the question-and-answer session.

Because Lin Yao explained too clearly, the player didn't ask a few serious questions, so he missed it.

Don't pay attention to "Monster Hunter" at all.

The third player even asked Lin Yao's mate selection criteria directly, and was stared down by Lin Yao...

The other party doesn't mind either.

After all, there is no lethality.

The whole venue once again became a sea of joy.

After all... After listening to the explanation, Linmu Studio didn't seem to have done anything outrageous.

It’s just to encourage players to connect online, although it feels a bit redundant, it seems that the release single version can also encourage players to connect online...

But the content size is really a problem.

They can't help it either.

In short.

If you need to buy two versions, you can buy one version if you don’t need it. Anyway, after one month, the main difference is that the cover is different from the Kanban girl, so just choose according to your own XP.

If you have friends, you can brush up special costumes online, but if you don’t have friends...then what can you do if you don’t have friends, don’t.

Anyway, Lin Yaoming said that there will be no additional content in this game, and it is guaranteed to be full, and all monsters will be completed in a month.

You can have fun without friends!

Think of it this way.

Linmu Studio is too conscientious!

In order to encourage players to make friends online, it has achieved this level, and even painstakingly split the exact same game into two parts, and made a bunch of new appearances.

so.

The players are all happy.

The post on the forum yesterday also changed from being a money trap to being awesome in Linmu Studio...

Although some people still feel that... this is superfluous, but the vast majority of players really have no resistance to the dual version release.

And Mou Feng, still froze in place.

He witnessed Lin Yao's exit with his own eyes, and then watched the players return to joyful appearances, and started to line up in the trial area in full swing.

Then he reacted suddenly.

"Fuck!" He slapped his thigh violently.

Li Guangsheng turned around: "What are you doing?"

"I understand!"

Mou Feng quickly took out his mobile phone, and then opened the player forum.

Sure enough.

The above is about the release of the double version of Pokémon! No one mentioned it!

Because the players don't pay attention at all.

After all, all eyes are attracted by "Monster Hunter".

And Linmu Studio also gave a satisfactory response to all players.

But the problem is, Pokémon doesn't say anything about follow-up patches! And it is also a dual version release!

"What do you know?" Li Guangsheng was still confused.
