The friend support system achieved three goals at the same time.
First, smurf accounts could use their main account's powerful cards to clear levels that they weren't strong enough to clear themselves. This indirectly achieved the effect of a main account carrying a smurf account, making the smurf feel like it wasn't playing a single-player game. It strengthened the game's social attributes and increased the number of smurf accounts that could be retained.
Secondly, a powerful card with a large account was equivalent to an advertisement effect, allowing friends to see how powerful the card was, thus enticing other players to top up their cards.
Third, normal players would add friends in order to get on the rich's good side. This gave the rich players a great sense of satisfaction, further stimulating their desire to top up.
These three points were crucial to the survival and profitability of I Am MT. A simple 'Friend Assistance System' perfectly achieved these three points without any actual collaboration in battle. It could be said that it used the least amount of resources to achieve the best results.
With the popularity of the anime, free downloads, and friends sharing, I Am MT's user base continued to grow, reaching the younger crowd.
And the number of paying players remained at around ten percent.
…
In the experience store, Chen Mo yawned out of boredom.
I Am MT's server was rented by Chen Mo, and the customer service was handled by a company. All he had to do was gather the feedback from the players and report it to the designers.
There wouldn't be any bugs or server maintenance in the parallel world. Although there were many players who complained about topping up, or problems with the experience, these were handled by the customer service staff. All Chen Mo had to do was gather the feedback from the players and decide if he should make any changes to the game.
Everyone else was playing I Am MT. They surrounded Wen Lingwei, asking questions about the team composition.
Wen Lingwei had recharged about 300 yuan, while the others had recharged more or less. Some had recharged 10 yuan, while others had recharged 30 yuan.
"You have Shaman and Sis Cannon now, you can focus on training Sis Cannon. You can also give the Shaman a team leader skill, that way your two Chain Lightning will be very powerful."
"Yeah, you have a lot of single target mages, you can go for the instant kill style. You can pair up with a female Thief or a dumb Thief, and put them in the same line as the Five Fireball Master, that way you can instantly kill one of them. "
"Jia Peng … Oh, your cards are too bad, delete your account and start over."
Wen Lingwei gave pointers to everyone.
Su Jinyu came to Chen Mo's side and asked, "Manager, why aren't you playing?"
Chen Mo said, "Oh, I don't have money."
Su Jinyu was speechless. "This game is free!"
Chen Mo said, "You don't understand, the free stuff is the most expensive."
Wen Lingwei walked over, "Stingy manager, stop pretending to be poor. You said that I Am MT's monthly revenue is over twenty million. That means you're making over ten million a month, and you still don't have any money!"
Chen Mo shrugged, "But the app store closes every month, and it hasn't even been a month yet. I've already spent most of my money on the cartoon, so where would I find the money to top up? "
Wen Lingwei said, "Oh, then when the money is in your account, you can recharge your V12. We can still ride on your coattails."
Chen Mo said, "My money needs to be used to develop more fun games, how could I waste it on something like this?"
Everyone: "…"
"Tell me, do you even believe what you just said? You're obviously trying to develop more scam games! "Wen Lingwei complained.
Chang Xiuya asked, "Manager, can I ask if there's a V12 in this game?"
Su Jinyu was shocked, "No way? A V12 is fifty thousand RMB, how could someone recharge fifty thousand RMB so quickly? "
Wen Lingwei didn't think it was possible either, "I don't think so, everyone's money doesn't grow on trees. I think there might be a V12 in a month or two, since the limit is too high. "
Chen Mo said, "Uhh, there really is."
Su Jinyu was shocked, "There really is?! Who is it? "
Chen Mo said, "There are twenty-seven V12's, which one are you asking?"
Everyone: "…"
Jia Peng left silently, "I don't understand the world of the rich."
Su Jinyu said, "Me neither."
Wen Lingwei said, "Quick! Give me their IDs, I'll add them as friends! I've been stuck at this level for so long, just give me a max account and I'll pass! "
As they were talking, someone walked in.
Chen Mo took a look, wasn't it Zhao Zihao?
"Why are you here?" Chen Mo was surprised.
Zhao Zihao was also shocked, "My god, why are there so many people, and so many girls."
Chen Mo stood up, "Oh, let me introduce you. This is the assistant I hired a while ago, Su Jinyu. These are all players. "
He then pointed at Zhao Zihao, "My brother, Zhao Zihao. Yep, he's a joker."
Zhao Zihao nodded at everyone and found a random seat to sit down.
"Chen Mo, hurry up and show me which cards I should use," Zhao Zihao said as he handed over his phone.
Chen Mo took it and looked at it, "Hmm? You play I Am MT too? "
Zhao Zihao nodded, "Yeah, how could I not play a game you made? I've been a bit busy recently and didn't play it as soon as I got online. I just got a new account. "
Everyone came over to take a look. Woah, V12.
What the heck, he's a tycoon!
However, when they looked at the cards on the account, everyone was shocked.
Big Sister, Notosuke Shinsuke, Lady Virtue, Cannon Sis, Winter. All the rare cards were pretty much there, and there were quite a few of each.
Wen Lingwei was speechless. "You're wasting God's gift! You've wasted so many good cards! "
Zhao Zihao scratched his head, "Sigh, I just got a bunch of cards and haven't looked at them in detail yet, so I'm here to ask you."
Jia Peng said, "Senior, why don't you show him?"
Wen Lingwei rolled her eyes, "Isn't the manager here, I don't need to show off in front of an expert."
Chen Mo looked at Zhao Zihao's cards and asked, "What style do you want to play?"
Zhao Zihao was dumbfounded. "What's the point of having a casual one? Just give me the most powerful one!"
Chen Mo said, "There's no best style, they all counter each other. Whatever, there's so many good cards, I'll just go with Unparalleled Master. "
Chen Mo started explaining as he set up the cards.
"Unparalleled Master is a relationship. It's Big Sister, Cannon Sis, Notosuke Shinsuke, and Winter. The four of them can deal a lot of damage and critical hits at the same time. You have Big Sister, it's a waste not to play this lineup.
"As for the fifth person, you don't have enough leadership skills right now. You can consider Blood Scum, Shaman, or Biyue in the future when you can. It depends on whether you like to be more reserved or more open. "
Jia Peng facepalmed, "They're all free cards from topping up, what a tycoon team!"
Zhao Zihao nodded, "Alright, I'll play this first. I'll raise the level of these cards first. "
Wen Lingwei frowned, "What, manager, you're saying this isn't the best? These four OP cards aren't the best? "
Chen Mo said, "There's no best, the cards counter each other."
Chang Xiuya said, "Then, can you recommend a commoner lineup?"
Wen Lingwei nodded, "Yeah, it's best if it can beat Unparalleled Master."
