(Feng Yan is going to accept a disciple, what kind of one will he accept?)
"Welcome to "Your Moon, My Heart", the good man is me, I am...Zeng Xiaoxian..."
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the moonlight was sultry, the insects were chirping, and there was a peaceful scene outside the house. The patients were walking in twos and threes under the supervision of caregivers and nurses. Of course, there were also some whose upper bodies were tightly tied with restraints. The guy, under the supervision of the nurses, walked staggeringly like a penguin. Occasionally, he would break away from the guards and try to escape, but he would soon be pinned to the ground by a professional and strong security guard like Daniel.
Feng Yan stayed in his own private ward, turned on the air conditioner, watched the love apartment on the TV, and enjoyed the unique tranquility of the midsummer evening. At this moment, his soul was sublimated and he was able to seize this moment of tranquility. Relaxing the body and mind is also a welcome relief from a rare break.
Feng Yan was able to watch the love apartment so quietly, but he was actually forced to do so because "Heartbeat Realm" was undergoing an important update, which would last for 6 hours. Starting at 2:30 pm, online players would not be affected. But as soon as the game ends, they will be forced to go offline, and those who are not online will not be able to log in. They will not be able to go online until 8:30 p.m., after the update is completed.
After looking at the time and it was 8 o'clock sharp, Feng Yan stood up from the chair, stretched out, covered his mouth a little, yawned and said to himself: "It's almost time, go to the official website to see what the content of this update is. Half an hour is enough."
When I opened the official website of "Heartbeat Realm", a big pop-up window popped up.
[The master-disciple system will be launched soon. See you there at 8:30 p.m.! 】
The window that popped up turned out to be a photo of Zhuge Qinmo and Wang Lang hugging each other and caressing each other. What's even more bizarre is that in the picture, both of them are wearing sunglasses. The background is the neon spotlight of the bar, and there is a person in front of them. Keyboard, this is DJing, let me go.
Feng Yan pinched the Qingming point like Liu Zheng, and said with a headache: "What the hell is this picture? Not to mention that these two people are not master and apprentice at all. What's the point of such an irrelevant scene on the background? Bastard, are the artists being tortured by Station B? This is too much, kid!"
This window is an automatically switching flip-floating promotional page. There are three pages in total. The second page is more normal when it is switched. The background is a very simple landscape painting with the words [Detailed Introduction to the Master and Disciple System] written on it. After Feng Yan clicks on it, After watching it for a while, Feng Yan roughly understood what the new master-disciple system was like.
Like most online games, the mentoring system of "Heartbeat Realm" is nothing more than to allow veteran players to guide new players or rookie players who have just joined the game to integrate into the game as soon as possible, so that these players can avoid detours and avoid Some very bad players gave up on the game after playing several dungeons and failing them all before the system could adjust the difficulty for them.
This situation is particularly prominent in "Heartbeat Realm" in the nearly one month since the game was launched.
The reason is the same. "Heartbeat Realm" is the world's first holographic game. It has a large number of players and fans. One month after it was launched, various data have far surpassed those non-holographic games by several blocks. But through this In the past month, when the developers were counting background data, they found that there was one piece of data that was not very good to look at, and that was the novice afk data.
What is novice afk data? For example, 80% of a group of novice players who entered the game at the same time successfully continued the game and maintained a record of being online every day for at least a week, while there are still 20% of players , only played for two days, or even one day, and never came online again. These 20% of players are called novice AFK players.
What worries the senior management of "Heartbeat Realm" is that although the game's registration volume and simultaneous player online data have been constantly refreshing the game's historical records, these are all relative terms. There were no holographic games before, and there was no base at all. What is the comparison? For example, I have not sold vegetables in the past 20 years. This year, when I was 21 years old, I started selling vegetables. This year I earned 10,000 yuan from selling vegetables. So compared to last year , in the data of selling vegetables, I increased by 10,000%.
This data has no substantive meaning at all. The senior management of "Heartbeat Realm" also knows that comparing growth without comparison is meaningless, so they focus on more and more hidden problems. The novice AFK data is their focus. One statistic they were looking at, which worried them a bit, was that the AFK rate for newbies in "Heartbeat Realm" actually accounted for nearly 40%. In other words, since the server was launched, despite the terrifying registration volume and rising online player data, But they still lost 40% of their players.
In other words, the game "Heartbeat Realm" can actually be far more brilliant than it is now, with data that will make everyone even more jaw-dropping.
From the perspective of outsiders, this is a remarkable and even historic start, but from an internal perspective, there are actually many problems and helplessness hidden behind the bright surface.
The nature of the game "Heartbeat Realm" is somewhat similar to that of Hearthstone. They are both games that are not friendly to novices. The difference is that Hearthstone's technical difficulty requirements are higher, and the combination of cards does not require a period of understanding. If you can't understand it at all, you will continue to be beaten during this period. Impatient players will feel irritated, and more players will find this game boring and give up directly.
"Heartbeat Realm" is because it is the first holographic game. It is so real that some players cannot adapt to this too real holographic game. In addition, after entering the game, various factors arise from the various copies that appear. , it is impossible and impossible to proceed according to the player's feelings. Players who are weaker or have poor psychological endurance may be unlucky enough to encounter zombies and ghosts in the first dungeon. After the collapse, they do not need to forcefully retreat. Yes, the system immediately disconnected after detecting an abnormal heart rate. Players like this will probably never play this game again.
It's not good if it's unreal, and it's not good if it's too real. This is really a matter of success or failure.
Fortunately, the guys at the top of the game quickly came up with a good idea. They launched the master system as quickly as possible, allowing old players to accept new players as apprentices and take them to play in the game to ensure their safety. At the same time, it increases their confidence and can continuously teach them experience during the game. As long as they successfully pass a few dungeons and reach the level of a master, I believe these players will definitely continue playing the game.
In fact, the advantages of the master-apprentice system don’t stop there. When old players accept new players as apprentices, they are sure to be rewarded, and there is also a part of the vanity of being a teacher. They want to have a little apprentice behind them, a master. The long master is called the short master, and he has a lot of face. In the dungeon, there is a job of running errands and exploring routes, and all is done by the apprentices. If they encounter inappropriate equipment, they will directly throw it to the apprentices. They can also make these apprentices happy for several days. When they meet each other, He frowned and introduced impatiently: "I have recently acquired a new disciple. He is a newbie and is ignorant. He calls me "Master" after me every day. I am annoyed."
If the apprentice you accept is a female player or a beauty, you will be even more motivated. The cool part of this is that players who have played games with a master-apprentice system know that if they get along well, it is not impossible to develop into a small player. I won’t go into details about the ending where I punch you in the chest.
