Reverse bounce?
Why can Mr. Li have trouble getting over the reverse bounce issue?
Yao Wenyang said subconsciously: "This is unlikely. A reverse bounce is enough, and it cannot really become a routine operation.
"Reverse bounces are quite risky in themselves. There are project management issues and development progress issues. Just make the game and release it as scheduled. Fewer bugs are better than anything else. We have done this once before with "Walking with Darkness", and "Doppo" "Martial Arts" is better to be more stable.
“Besides, we haven’t set a release date yet, so there’s no talk of a reverse delay.
"Besides, our game hasn't been finished yet. No matter how efficient Mr. Lu is, it won't be until next week, right?
"It just so happens that we are also a little bit behind "The Legend of Jiangshan", so we don't have to be in the spotlight. It's not worthwhile for them to steal the popularity."
After all, Yao Wenyang is also the No. 6 person in 404 Studio and the head of the transplant team. When thinking about problems, he unknowingly starts to consider the overall interests of the company.
Li Rushan was a little disappointed. He looked at Lu Zhixing: "Is it true that reverse bounce is not possible? Oh, that's a pity. I also want to say that if we can be the first company in the industry to stabilize reverse bounce, then It’s pretty cool.”
Lu Zhixing smiled slightly: "Reverse bounce is indeed very difficult for ordinary companies. Moreover, once or twice is fine, but if reverse bounce occurs every time, players will find it boring.
"Players will feel that the release date was deliberately delayed, and then released as scheduled to create a reverse bounce effect. If this operation occurs frequently, players will also feel that it is a routine."
Li Rushan nodded: "Well, what Mr. Lu said makes sense, so let's go on sale as scheduled and not consider the reverse bounce."
Unexpectedly, Lu Zhixing gasped and suddenly changed the topic: "But I am talking about the situation of an ordinary company. We are not an ordinary company."
Everyone: "Huh?"
Li Rushan's eyes suddenly sparkled again: "Huh? Mr. Lu, do you mean that reverse bounce can still be done?"
Yao Wenyang was confused: "No, Mr. Lu, our game hasn't been developed yet?"
Lu Zhixing: "It's done and the AI test has passed."
Yao Wenyang opened his mouth slightly: "When did it happen?"
Lu Zhixing: "Just now."
Everyone present fell into silence. Good guy, Mr. Lu, you are definitely cheating!
What kind of efficiency is this!
Although everyone knows that Mr. Lu has an advantage in collecting consciousness and making games, why do you feel that the development speed is getting faster and faster? There is still room for further improvement in this thing?
Li Rushan said: "But Mr. Lu, you just said that if we keep bouncing tickets in reverse, it will make players think that we deliberately set a later release date and then released it as scheduled. We are tricking players..."
Lu Zhixing smiled slightly: "This problem is easy to solve.
"As long as we hit the release date earlier than the audience expects every time, that won't be a problem."
Li Rushan couldn't help but open his mouth slightly, full of surprise.
Can it still be like this?
This operation really cannot be done by ordinary companies!
What does Mr. Lu mean?
For example, the normal game development cycle is three months, then a game starts from research and development to the release date. If it is scheduled to be released in four months, and then reversely delayed for three and a half months, then the first time , players will be very excited, but if they come back several times, players will become accustomed to it, and even think that this game company deliberately announced a delayed release date in advance to maintain its reverse bounce character.
But what if the normal development cycle is three months, and the original release date is also three months, but the game is released in two and a half months?
Then players won’t think that this game company deliberately delayed the release date, and will just shout, damn, this game company is really awesome!
So the key lies in whether the development time of this game is longer or shorter than players' psychological expectations.
Li Rushan got excited again: "Okay! According to what Mr. Lu said, this game can still be released in advance? When will we release it?"
Lu Zhixing looked at the date: "It's better to hit the sun than to choose a day, or today?"
"We can do a sneak sale, which is more exciting than a reverse bounce!"
Yao Wenyang was shocked, good guy, is it so casual?
Not to mention that we haven’t made any publicity plans yet, the key point is that today is still Monday!
Now 404 Studio has established a good relationship with the official for a long time, and the review will not take too long. It will be officially released tomorrow at most, and tomorrow is only Tuesday!
What a cold time this is!
Yao Wenyang asked: "What about the publicity plan?"
Lu Zhixing looked at him: "Promotion plan? What kind of promotion plan do you want? Changteng Entertainment has already promoted it for us."
Li Rushan was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly high-fived Lu Zhixing: "Okay! Heroes have the same views. Mr. Lu and I just thought of going together!"
Yao Wenyang couldn't help but be stunned, good guy, if Changteng Entertainment promotes it, does that mean we also promote it?
That’s not the case!
Changteng Entertainment was promoting the movie "The Legend of Jiangshan" and did not mention "The Unparalleled Martial Arts". What does this have to do with us? We can’t keep up with this heat, right?
Moreover, "Feng Yun Lu" hasn't even been released yet. It was originally scheduled to be released this weekend, which is still a few days away!
Now that it is released, it is likely to be overwhelmed by the publicity of "Jiangshan Fengyunlu", and it will be difficult to gain too much popularity.
Li Rushan thought so too, this is the best time!
A game company with no martial ethics is here to cheat! Come for a sneak attack! Players, the new game was released without warning, not to mention the promotional video and press conference, there was not even a hint of news in advance.
Just like fighting guerrilla warfare, no one knows when the next game from 404 Studio will be released.
Playing is an unexpected thing!
Li Rushan was so happy: "Okay, let's do it like this. Boss Lu, let's put it on sale immediately!"
Yao Wenyang and other employees went to work in a daze.
Upload the official version of "Doubo Wulin" to the official platform, and urgently prepare various promotional images and game introductions on the game details page...
It’s just that many people still feel a little confused.
ah? Is our game going to be released soon?
Are we not mentally prepared at all?
…
…
Tuesday, April 9th.
"Lao Niu Lao Niu! Are you still sleeping? Stop sleeping, something big has happened!"
"Poisonous Milk Master is coming online soon! 404 Studio has released a new game!"
"Quick, I've downloaded the game but I haven't played it yet. I just want to see you suffer first!"
Liu Liang was taking a nap, but when he woke up, he found that his private messages had exploded again.
He was half asleep and almost woke up when he saw the 99+ private message.
What, my prediction failed again?
No, I haven’t made any predictions recently...
After looking through these private messages, Liu Liang was absolutely furious.
Good guy, the fans are here to persecute me again!
Why is Studio 404 doing something while I'm sleeping again? If I continue like this, I will really become "Sleeping Liu Liang", and something big will happen every time I fall asleep!
The key is that what happened this time is really outrageous. 404 Studio actually released the official version of "Doubo Martial Arts" without saying a word!
There was no release date set at all before, nor was there any publicity!
What kind of game company this is is as unpredictable as the wind...
The private messages from fans made Liu Liang furious.
"What is Poisonous Milk Master! Whoever labeled me, take it off! When did I become Poisonous Milk Master? I am a serious professional game review anchor!
"What do you mean, the game has already been downloaded but you just didn't play it? You want to see me suffer first? Take the bamboo shoots!"
When other fans encounter a new game, they usually don’t watch the live broadcast of the host. They first experience the game carefully by themselves, and then watch the host’s recording after the experience is almost finished.
This way, you can maximize your first-time experience without being spoiled, and enjoy the game as much as possible.
But in Liu Liang's case, the fans are just the opposite.
The game is ready, but don’t play it yet, let’s watch Liu Liang suffer first! Obviously, this is also to ensure that he has a first-time experience, but the first thing he sees is not the game itself, but Liu Liang's suffering.
Let’s talk about this group of fans winning bamboo shoots!
Liu Liang was also angry. It was all because of these fans that he had lost six times in a row! But there is no way, I still have to play the new game when it comes out.
Thinking of this, he got up, washed his face briefly, and prepared to start broadcasting.
