MTL - There is a Problem with This Online Game Planning-Chapter 20 Publicity issue

  Chapter 20 Publicity Issues

   As time goes by day by day.

  The weather is getting hotter and hotter.

  In addition to worrying about the complex and troublesome numerical growth system of the game every day, Lin Yao is responsible for docking art resources.

  Mu Wanqing was a little worried at first.

  But after seeing Lin Yao's inspections with ease, and her ability to justify disputes in the face of disputes, leaving the other party speechless, and sometimes even drawing by herself, she was completely at ease.

  At the same time, she sincerely admires Lin Yao, a girl who looks young.

   Really powerful.

  Everything is great.

  Personality is also likable.

   Apart from being a bit stupid in life, he is almost impeccable.

  Of course, it is impossible for Lin Yao to admit this.

  Now she can lie down and take off her pants, and she will never fight with her jeans on the sofa again.

   Great progress.

  Is this still stupid?

  Lin Yao's backhand is a ponytail flick.

  That's... It's June, and the weather is really getting hotter and hotter. It's okay to wear skinny jeans and have an air conditioner indoors, but it's very uncomfortable to go outside.

  Even Mu Wanqing stopped wearing black silk, she gave up a little bit of the image of an elite woman, and changed to a pair of white and slender snowy legs, which is very eye-catching.

   Lin Yao also considered buying some loose clothes.

But because she's been busy recently, and she doesn't have much money... life is no problem, but her salary is not much now, and her savings are even less. After all, she has just graduated, and Lin Xi is rich. The living expenses given by the university are a lot, but now It's inappropriate to take money from her after graduation, and Lin Yao doesn't want to.

  So I put it on hold for now.

   Let's work hard first.

   When the salary is paid, there will be money.

   As for games.

  Although there was a small episode in the middle, Ye Lan complained everywhere, which slightly affected morale.

   But it's not a big problem.

  Everything is proceeding step by step.

  Projects are time-critical and task-heavy.

  But Lin Yao's planning book is too good and detailed, even if you have any questions, you can find the answer from her in an instant, without any hesitation or entanglement.

  With a clear structure and visible goals, and it is still updated on the basis of the original game, the progress is of course smooth.

Moreover, Zhong Xiu and Zhu Nianqiao are quite reliable. Although he is an intern, although it looks strange, especially Zhong Xiu, who has a lot of inner drama, but he once formed a team to participate in the ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest in China. In the qualifiers, he also won a silver medal.

   It has been more than half a month since Lin Yao heard about it, so it can be said that it is quite powerful.

   "How is it, is it okay?"

   More than half a month has passed.

  The updated game has gradually taken shape.

  All the main systems have been modified, and the new system can also be tested. Although it will take several rounds of testing before it can be officially launched, you can already fully experience the changed game.

  On this day, Lin Yao and Mu Wanqing came behind Zhong Xiu and asked about the changed game.

   "It's not bad. After all, it's an outsourcer who has participated in game production before. It knows the underlying code and logic specifications. Although it needs to test the hardware in each environment to make a final conclusion, but at present, it is almost ready to go online."

  Zhong Xiu investigated the client, and then tested the newly added and modified systems in front of Lin Yao and Mu Wanqing.

   Such as gangs, chatting, formations and the like.

While testing, he sighed: "It feels very interesting, Lin Yao, I don't know what you think about this thing, I have never seen such a turn-based online game on the market, especially for various gameplay and PVP. The adjustments are too much to play."

   "I think it's okay, it's not perfect, I still have a lot of ideas that haven't been realized yet."

  Lin Yao shook her head.

   She definitely can't look at this game with the eyes of the world.

   And from the perspective of the earth, this modified "Fantasy OL" is really not perfect, it can only be regarded as a cheap alternative version of the mature turn-based online game Fantasy Westward Journey.

   But time is tight, so this is the only way for now.

  Even if it is a cheap replacement version, it should be okay, right?

   "Ah? You still have a lot of ideas?" Zhong Xiu turned around and looked at her in shock, "And this is not perfect, you have created a new way to play."

   "Really? Let's not talk about this."

  Lin Yao glanced suspiciously at Zhong Xiu, suspecting that he was bragging, but then she thought about the level of online games in this world, and she was relieved, and changed the subject: "How did you test the hardware in different environments that you just mentioned?"

Zhong Xiu said casually: "Tester, how can we test it? After all, the game has already been tested internally. Now we are just updating the game. We can't shut down the game and test internally again, right? Although the updated game is completely different from before. Same thing, but lost players are hard to get back."

   "It's not the inside, can't we choose a few servers to test first?"

  Zhong Xiu was stunned: "...test first?"

  Lin Yao was also stunned: "Is there no such concept?"

   What kind of world is this?

   "I really haven't heard of it."

"After the internal test, select a few popular and older regional servers, and then push the new version to them, and conduct a stress test for about a week. If there is any problem, it will be changed, and if there is no problem, the game will be pushed to the in-game server. All regional servers, this saves time and effort, doesn’t it?”

Like turn-based... or most online games, because each player's status, skills, equipment, and dialogue will generate data, which needs to be processed online with the server in a unified manner. In order to reduce server load and ensure that players can play games smoothly, Partition sub-server is inevitable.

   Same here.

  Zhong Xiu's eyes widened: "You let players work for you?"

   "What do you mean a player will work for me?"

  Lin Yao also stared at her beautiful eyes, and said: "What do you want to give them an early experience of the new version? Find us some loopholes, check a few bugs, what's the matter!"

   "..."

  Zhong Xiu has nothing to say.

snort! woman!

   Sure enough.

  It's all bad intentions.

  The more beautiful the woman, the more bad thoughts she has.

   Isn't this woman in front of me!

so beautiful!

  So much thought!

  Different from Zhong Xiu.

  As a manager, Mu Wanqing's eyes lit up immediately when she heard Lin Yao's proposal.

  She has long felt that the usually idle testers in the development department are a bit redundant.

  But after thinking about it, she still has some concerns: "Then what if a serious bug occurs? For example, you can swipe money."

Lin Yaoshun replied: "Back in time, let's first ask all logged-in players to sign a user agreement, explaining the situation in detail, and if you want to play the game, click 'Agree' first, and the right to explain is ours! Once a vicious BUG occurs , while we are trying to solve it, we will confidently kill the sneaky players! Then everything will return to normal, it is really too serious, we can still report the crime..."

  Mu Wanqing: "..."

  Zhong Xiu glanced at Lin Yao.

devil.

"you really are…"

  Mu Wanqing looked at Lin Yao dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.

   You said she is a player, okay, indeed, the content of this game update is quite conscientious, and by the way, all the props that directly enhance attributes have been deleted.

   But you said that she does everything for the players, no.

  She dared to allow players to work openly and aboveboard, and she even called it an early access experience. She even thought of going back in time, and the right of interpretation belongs to the development of the second Yinxian move, blocking all possible problems.

   "You guys."

  Facing Mu Wanqing's dumbfounding expression, Lin Yao felt a little helpless.

   Live through this period of time.

  She also discovered that this world is very different from the earth.

  The people here are really simple...

  Perhaps it was because the previous wartime state lasted for too long. Except for the entertainment industry, which is not far behind the earth, other pan-entertainment industries, unless they are not scaled, are mostly very cautious.

  The idea she just said, any online game company in the previous life didn't come at her fingertips, and there were even more exaggerated ones.

   And there are smart phones here, but they don't even understand the user agreement.

"Do not worry."

Lin Yao was still a little worried when she saw Mu Wanqing. After thinking about it, she explained again: "Giving players an early experience may sound unreliable, but it is indeed a good thing for players, and those who use bugs maliciously, Don’t they know it’s a BUG? They definitely know it, although time rewinding is unfair to normal players, but after all, it’s a week, and that kind of vicious BUG that is difficult to solve is not so easy to appear.”

   "Besides, Ms. Mu, I can assure you that the new version will not be a week, even if it is a month, it is estimated that many people are in the stage of groping, and the problem will not be too big... and the time for internal testing will be too late."

   "...Okay, I get it, just do as you say."

  Mu Wanqing had to admit that what Lin Yao said made sense, although it sounded very unprofessional.

   But really useful.

"That's good."

  Lin Yao smiled brightly at her.

  Mu Wanqing reached out and wanted to grab her ponytail.

   "Don't pull my hair..."

  Lin Yao shook her head and complained, but found that she couldn't shake her hand, so she didn't bother to care about it.

  Mu Wanqing smiled, nodded to Zhong Xiu, motioned him to continue the test, and then continued the topic with Lin Yao: "Then the next step is the issue of promotion and distribution."

   "Yeah, how about it, can we get resources?"

  Lin Yao asked with some expectation, even forgetting that the ponytail was in someone else's hands.

   Actually a game.

  Whether it is a stand-alone or online game.

  Most of the real investment is actually in the operation and promotion of the game. The game needs people to play, so to solve the problem of communication and monetization, the cost of many project promotion is many times that of development.

   It is enough to see the importance of promotion.

   “…not much hope.”

Mu Wanqing sighed, lightly rubbed Lin Yao's soft ponytail, feeling a little melancholy: "I asked the same period, but she clearly told me that with the current operating situation of "Fantasy OL", it is basically impossible to win many Resources, even if she helps me submit the application, it will be rejected."

"This…"

  Lin Yao has nothing to do about it.

   Operations is realistic.

   Unless the leader above speaks, everything depends on the input-output ratio.

  If your game can’t generate revenue and make money, it’s useless to talk about it.

   After all, no matter how fun your game looks, what if players don’t buy it?

   "Is there no other way?" Lin Yao asked again.

   "No." Mu Wanqing shook her head.

  Lin Yao sighed, feeling a little worried.

   Does it really depend on word of mouth from players?

  That feels too slow.

Um…

  Lin Yao turned her head to look at Mu Wanqing who was wearing a professional skirt, revealing a pair of snowy long legs.

  Suddenly, a weird idea came up.

   How about... let the development manager dance on stage?

   Thank you for your support, thank you very much, I will go back on the sixth day of junior high school, and then I will save more manuscripts, and there will be a wave of explosions on the shelves. I have written two books and haven’t tried them yet.
