Let you make games, you directly shoot blockbusters?

Two days on the weekend, fleeting.

After experiencing countless team battles, large and small, the players in "World of Warcraft" finally calmed down.

The Alliance and the Horde seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding, and they stopped launching large-scale team battles and fell into a short period of recuperation.

It's not because I'm tired.

Instead, prepare for next weekend.

Especially after experiencing this war, they felt the importance of level and equipment, and were eager to improve their strength.

Then it will be more enjoyable to fight in groups and abuse others.

This has also caused the prices of equipment and gold in "World of Warcraft" to skyrocket, making it hard to find gold.

The major guilds are working hard to gather manpower and speed up the pace of collective leveling.

The two servers are full almost all the time except late at night.

Even when you run out of the city in the middle of the night, you can see many night owls doing monster spawning and tasks, and their levels are several levels ahead of the rest of the army.

"There are no classes this afternoon, hurry up and sign up to start a group!"

In the university dormitory, after Xu Gu finished lunch, he immediately sat in front of the computer and opened the game.

"Come on, come on, where are you going to level up today?"

"How about doing a mission? You can also explore new maps and open flight spots."

"The dungeon is also fine. With high experience, you can unlock equipment. It is said that someone broke out the purple equipment in the level 30 dungeon."

"I'm wearing a purple outfit? I don't even have a blue outfit."

"Then let's refresh our books. What other tasks are there?"

As soon as they heard about the purple equipment, several people in the dormitory couldn't sit still. They immediately gathered in groups in Stormwind City, then mounted griffins and flew to the location of the level 30 dungeon.

During the flight.

When passing over the forest.

You can also vaguely see the newbies running inside, just like when they first entered the game, being chased up and down by a bunch of low-level monsters.

The entire Novice Forest is still extremely lively.

"The leveling in this game is really good. Every time you upgrade, you will feel stronger." Xu Gu said with emotion.

It’s as if I see my own reflection in these newbies.

"It's indeed very good." The roommate next to him nodded, "I checked out a few other games, and they were maxed out in a few days, and I didn't even have time to appreciate the process. So much content in the middle was wasted."

After this period of leveling, they have gradually figured out the difference between "World of Warcraft" and other MMO games.

That is growth!

The upgrading process of other games is to follow the main line all the way. Every time you complete a few tasks, you will be given an excessive piece of equipment and skills will be learned automatically.

So there will be a feeling.

Everything seemed just right.

Monster strength, skill power, and even character attributes are all planned in advance, no more, no less. Players only need to follow the established path.

But "World of Warcraft" is different.

It has no fixed main line.

Today you can farm monsters in the novice forest, and tomorrow you can go to Stranglethorn Valley to do tasks, or you can simply stay in the dungeon all the time. The leveling method depends on your personal preference.

the most important is.

Every time you level up, learn a new skill, or change into a new piece of equipment, you will be able to verify and use it in the subsequent leveling process, and you will feel the process of slowly becoming stronger.

Just like Xu Gu's Holy Knight.

As the tank in the team, he used to find it a bit difficult to pull 3 mobs of the same level, and there was a risk of sudden death at any time.

But when he found a blue shield in the dungeon and replaced the green equipment on his body, he was suddenly able to pull 4 mobs.

This joy of growing up.

This is something other similar games can't offer.

Not to mention the priest roommate on the team.

He is counting on the improvement in the level of healing skills. The extra dozens of points of milk supply will definitely be a huge improvement for the entire team's survival guarantee!

"Huh? Honghuang made a new announcement?"

Suddenly, a voice of doubt sounded in the dormitory.

Hunter Lao Jiang took advantage of the break on the road to click on Honghuang's official blog and found that there was a new message, and it was published more than ten minutes ago.

"What's the news? Any updates?"

Several other people suddenly became energetic.

They are all die-hard fans of this game now, so naturally they are very concerned about this news.

Lao Jiang didn't waste any time and sent a screenshot of the announcement to the dormitory chat group called "301 Father and Son Bureau".

[Honghuang Studio: After more than half a month of operation, the number of online users of "World of Warcraft" finally exceeded the 5 million mark. 】

[To thank all players for their support, we will launch the new 40-person team copy Molten Core on April 28, as well as a large amount of content, and hold the first team-based land reclamation and team PVP national competition. The specific content is as follows...]

hiss!

See the text above the picture.

The sound of inhaling instantly spread throughout the dormitory.

"40-person team copy!?"

"My dear, can this still be called a copy?"

"I believe you even if you tell me it's a siege!"

"Is it so exciting from the beginning?"

"On April 28th, there is still one and a half months to go online!"

Don't talk about them.

Even the comments under this announcement were completely blown away, with players everywhere exclaiming and wondering.

Because in their impression.

Dungeons are always done by five people.

Even more.

The top of the sky will double to 10.

But now, Honghuang has issued a notice that a 40-person group version will be released!

This is tantamount to a bombshell for all "World of Warcraft" players.

This is not over yet!

Just when everyone thought this was outrageous enough.

But found out.

The national competition below is even more shocking.

[Schedule of National Team-Based Land Development Competition:]

[We will convene players from all over the country to participate in the competition in teams of 40 people. Anyone who has reached the full level and formed a team of 40 people can sign up and open up a group book through online strategy! 】

[First place: 20 million, honorary team medal, champion guild logo, out-of-print costume]

[Second place: 10 million, runner-up guild logo, out-of-print costume]

[Third place: 5 million, third place guild logo, out-of-print costume]

[Fourth place: 1 million, out-of-print costume]

[Fifth place: 500,000, out-of-print costume]

Twenty million bonus!

It’s doubled compared to the original “PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds” game!

Even the team PK competition held at the same time had as many as 8 million winners!

For a moment.

The entire gaming circle is excited.

Major gaming guilds and clubs were even more alarmed and held emergency meetings.

"Quick! Go and call all the guild leaders over to discuss the competition!"

"The number one team member actually has 20 million, which is enough for our club to spend for several years!"

"We must participate in this competition! Even for the sake of the Champions Guild logo and honorary title!"

"Team PK competition, it's our chance to become famous as a band of thieves!"

After the development of the past six months, the domestic e-sports industry has risen strongly, with various competitions continuing.

But even so.

This is the first time such a huge scale and bonuses have appeared in China, and it is far beyond their imagination.

Game clubs and guilds that make a living from this will naturally not miss this opportunity. In a short period of time, they have gathered a large number of people to prepare for an attack on the 40-person team copy.

Even netizens who have never played this game are very concerned about this matter and have set off another wave of heated discussions.

Other MMO makers are watching.

Jealousy is in my heart, but I can't do anything.

Because the concept of the functions of the War Mage and Priest team was first initiated by the Ancients, even if they wanted to re-enact it, it would take several months, and by then they would not even be able to afford a cold meal.

no way.

In the end, we can only issue an announcement and hold a PK competition.

At least in terms of PK gameplay, they can't lose!

…

Tuk-tuk-tuk——

Just as there was a lot of noise outside, discussing the e-sports craze.

Lao Song took a report and knocked on the door of Chen Lin's office.

"come in."

After hearing the response, Lao Song opened the door and walked in, his face beaming with joy.

"What's wrong? Something good happened to you?"

Chen Lin could see the change in his expression at a glance.

"It's indeed a good thing."

Lao Song nodded and handed the report to the table: "Just now, news came from Xbox that Big Dead Redemption has sold a total of 10 million copies on the console platform, and with the sales of PC, it has reached 40 million. !”

40 million sales!

Even now, he still can't believe it, and the hand holding the report trembled slightly.

After all, there are only a dozen or so games in the world that have achieved this sales volume.

"besides."

After taking a deep breath, he continued: "The sales volume of "Two People" also reached 10 million last week. We now have 4 games worth 10 million."

"Are there four models?" Chen Lin's eyes lit up.

In this way, he is only short of a product with a sales volume of tens of millions to complete the eighth stage of the mission.

He was still very curious about this stage of the mission.

Because it does not indicate rewards, it is completely different from the previous seven stages.

If I guess correctly.

After the completion of this eighth stage.

Should there be some changes that are different from the past, or new rewards?

In short, Chen Lin is still looking forward to it.

Thinking of this, he said: "Four games don't sound good, let's just make them together. Which game under our umbrella is closer to selling in the tens of millions?"

"Together?" Old Song looked strange when he heard this.

Others have a model that sells tens of millions of dollars and is used to burn incense and pray to Buddha. Why is it like small change to you, and you can collect it at will?

But then again.

It seems like they actually have one that sells close to 10 million.

"Humanity is a complete failure. We already have 9 million. How about a discount or something to boost sales?"

"That's okay, let's just discount it in half. It'll just work together with Total War to promote it."

"OK."

Lao Song agreed.

then.

After discussing some more matters related to the competition, he turned and left.

Chen Lin turned on his computer and continued to complete the follow-up plan for "World of Warcraft".

…

the other side.

Inside the game.

Players are still busy completing tasks, downloading dungeons, and venturing around the continent of Azeroth.

certainly.

PK is no less important.

Almost every weekend, a faction war takes place, bringing together tens of thousands of players.

The scene was so hot.

It's comparable to a war movie.

Even once.

The Horde led people to the Alliance and massacred Stormwind City, killing so many corpses and tombstones all over the ground.

The Alliance was so angry that they gathered their men the next day and attacked Orgrimmar, the main city of the tribe.

Many powerful guilds and players also became famous in these battles and became influential figures in the game. It can be said that there are many heroes.

And this is the case.

It lasted until April 28, when the vanguard troops had reached their full levels, and was finally interrupted by a piece of news.

That is the long-awaited team copy Molten Core, updated!

"Here we come, the 40-man group is here!"

“After waiting for so long, it’s finally updated!”

"Fortunately, I just reached the level on the last day."

"The heroic difficulty boss has a chance to reveal a full-level purple outfit, and a high probability of a blue outfit?"

"Damn it! This is so cool, isn't it?"

"Go, go, go! We must max out today!"

After these few weeks of faction wars, players' desire for powerful equipment has reached an unprecedented level.

The Molten Core raid is currently the only full-level dungeon that produces level 60 equipment. Naturally, it is the graduation holy land that all players yearn for. They have already gathered manpower to prepare for land reclamation as soon as possible.

If you are lucky, you will get a purple outfit.

Even if they can't get a share, the gold coins the boss bid will be shared equally among them, and they can still make a fortune by then.

"Let me see... what is the current price of gold coins."

Inside the dormitory.

As soon as Xu Gu received the update message, he immediately opened the trading platform, hoping to collect some gold coins to use to bid for equipment.

However.

When he entered the four characters "World of Warcraft" and clicked search, his eyes suddenly widened.

"Holy shit! 1:5! Five yuan per gold coin? Is this gold price serious?"
