Yan Qi could not help but break out in cold sweat for Morning Dew Gaming Platform.
How could they do that?
Wasn't this messing around?!
What was the rush for a new platform based on normal thinking?
Since the game on the platform had not been completely fixed with bugs, they could just delay it for a while. It would not be too late to publicize it after the game was completely fixed and there were no bugs, right?
The key was, what was the point of being in such a hurry to test the operation?
They could not earn more money or accumulate more players. Gamers could only watch but not play. They might even curse.
He really could not figure out what kind of brain circuit would be able to do such a thing.
He searched the gamers' comments online and found that the gamers' discussion rate was quite high. There might be scolding, but most people treated it as a joke.
"This Morning Dew Gaming Platform is crazy! I thought it was a big platform with so many advertisements a while ago. I thought they would give away two games and organize some activities for the trial operation. Then, I downloaded it. I did not expect that not only would there be no activities, but the games on the platform could not be played! "
"I fell for it because I saw that this platform could be associated with Tengda's account …"
"Shocked + 1. The bugs in the game haven't even been fixed. What kind of trial operation is this? It's so boring. "
"Are they playing us like monkeys? I looked around. There are only four games that can be played on the entire platform. What's more, they are all old and tired of mobile games … "
"This Morning Dew Gaming Platform is really confusing. You say that it doesn't have money, but it keeps on advertising. It looks like it has plenty of funds. You say that it has money, right? Why doesn't it spend money to work with big companies and release a game to promote itself? That's much more efficient than spending money, right?! "
"I feel like this can be selected as one of the top ten idiotic events in the gaming circle this year. The trial operation actually has no games on the game platform, making gamers play in loneliness. Ordinary games platforms really can't do such a thing!"
"I'm dying of laughter. I saw the advertisement for this platform before, but I didn't click on it. I thought it was a new platform for ballers. Now, it seems like it's actually a comedian?"
"That's right. They even wrote down the number of bugs in the game and updated it in real time. Was this a bug fixing speed competition? Rather than calling it a gaming platform, it's more like a testing platform or a platform to record the number of bugs for these games … "
"There's actually such a funny gaming platform in the world? I don't believe it. Don't tell me it's a made-up joke? "
"It's true. Search for the Morning Dew Gaming Platform. The data on the official website and the platform's application are all interconnected. You'll see it once you enter."
Most of the players who expressed their anger were players who had been successfully guided by the advertisement.
Although there were many small channels now, and most players had their own preferred platforms, there were also some players who wandered between various platforms. When they saw which platform had the most discounts and which platform gave out the most games, they would wander over to take advantage of them.
Many guilds that specialized in mobile games would also organize teams to explore the new platforms. After all, there were many new players on the new platforms. Even if it was an old game, it would be easier to meet new players on the new platforms, and the experience would be better.
Therefore, Meng Chang had spent a lot of publicity funds to advertise. Although the conversion rate was very low, it still managed to convert a group of people.
These people were either looking forward to the trial operation of the new platform, or they wanted a change of environment. In short, they were waiting for the official launch of the new platform.
But when the platform was opened, this was it?
Their expectations were dashed and they felt like they had been deceived. Naturally, they were very angry.
However, most people did not have high expectations for the Morning Dew Gaming Platform, so they did not feel angry. Instead, they treated this matter as a joke.
A gaming platform had no games on the platform. It sounded like an April Fool's joke no matter how one listened to it.
Many people even went to the official website to search it and realized that it was not a joke. It was real!
As the rumors spread, the popularity of the Morning Dew Gaming Platform really increased!
However, the increase in popularity did not have much impact on the platform's attraction of players.
Moreover, a player was right. With so much publicity funds, wouldn't it be better to find a big factory to discuss exclusive rights or being the first game?
After all, the most precious resource on a gaming platform was the game content.
The new games of outstanding big factories were often the focus of attention. They naturally had a large number of players. Even if they could not sign an exclusive contract with the platform, they could at least sign a limited time exclusive contract. For example, they could only be on the Morning Dew Gaming Platform within a week and only on other platforms after a week.
That way, most of the players who experienced the game on the Morning Dew Gaming Platform would be able to stay. Wouldn't the conversion rate be much better than advertising blindly?
If they could discuss with Tengda and let the new game be exclusive … forget it, Tengda would not do it. After all, the difference in status was too great. However, there was still hope if they could discuss with a domestic company like Sun Strike Studios as long as they offered a higher price.
However, it seemed like the people on the Morning Dew Gaming Platform did not consider that at all. Even if they contacted the game company normally, they would not reject the game. As long as they fixed the bugs, they would be able to play it. In fact, they did not even have any special treatment for some of the more outstanding games.
All in all, the more Yan Qi understood about the Morning Dew Gaming Platform, the more he felt that it was strange.
Compared to other platforms, it was completely out of place – it was a completely different style!
Could it be that mental patients were more open-minded and mentally handicapped children were more cheerful?
It was difficult to understand.
Yan Qi could not help but worry for the Blade of the Empire. Would there be players playing his own game on such a platform? Would they be able to earn money?
However, worrying was one thing and there was nothing he could do. He could only hope that the Morning Dew Gaming Platform was good.
…
…
August 20th, Monday …
Meng Chang came to the Morning Dew Gaming Platform again to take a look at the current situation. Then, he went back to implement the next step of the publicity plan.
This time, Meng Chang realized that there were not as many people in the office as before. It had become orderly.
"Eh?"
"Could it be that everyone realized that metaphysics has failed, so they stopped fighting for work spots?"
"Please don't. The publicity plan that I racked my brains to come up with this weekend was built on the foundation of metaphysics. If metaphysics fails, what will happen to my plan?"
Meng Chang quickly walked to the conference room and asked Li Yada.
Li Yada shook her head. "No, it's the opposite. Not only did they not question metaphysics, but they also believed in it."
"The reason why you see fewer people is because … these companies have reached an agreement."
Meng Chang was a little confused. "Agreement? What agreement? "
Li Yada explained, "The companies that came later realized that the key positions in the treasure land had been occupied. They wanted to rent one or two workstations from the companies in front of them at a high price. After all, if they want to find bugs, they only need two testers to test here and then submit it to the development team for modification. "
"However, there are many new companies. If they all increase the price to rent workstations, it will definitely be very chaotic and filled with vicious competition. That's why Yan Qi suggested that companies that take up more workstations and don't actually need so many workstations can only keep a small number of workstations and empty the rest. "
"Then, every other company can get two workstations. The price is clearly marked, and it's slightly higher than the original rent. What's more, these workstations have to be prioritized for those companies that have a high completion rate, are about to go online, and are in a hurry to fix bugs. "
"It can be considered as redistributing these workstations. The companies that come first can earn some difference by renting the workstations. The companies that come later can also enjoy the benefits of the treasure land. In short … with this rule, there's no need to fight for the workstations anymore. Of course, it looks much more orderly."
Meng Chang was speechless.
For a moment, he did not know what to say.
Goodness gracious, these people managed to play with such a small number of workstations!
However, on second thought, they could do whatever they wanted. In any case, it was fine as long as his publicity plan was not affected.
"Alright, let's get down to business."
"I've been paying attention to the situation of Morning Dew Gaming Platform over the past two days. Apart from not being scolded enough, it's in line with my previous expectations."
"Next, I will continue to invest in publicity funds for publicity to make this discussion more intense. It would be even better if I can create more controversy."
"By the way, when will the bugs in these games be fixed?"
Li Yada said, "The first batch of cooperating game companies, led by Blade of the Empire, have been fixing bugs for more than a week. If the situation is optimistic, it should be released around this Thursday or Friday."
Meng Chang nodded slightly. "Yes, I understand."
"Let's proceed according to the original plan. Just focus on the game platform. I'll be in charge of the publicity plan. Before the publicity plan is completed, try not to express your stance to the outside world. Even if many people suddenly scold you, don't clarify. Just wait patiently."
"My publicity plan is basically completed. There's only one crucial link left. However, I still have to think about how to cut into this crucial link. "
"Only by finding a perfect entry point can the publicity effect be explosive!"
…
At the same time, at Shenhua View …
As usual, Pei Qian came to the office to check on the situation of the various departments.
"Hmm … GOG and IOI's situation seems to be getting more and more strange …"
Pei Qian had an ominous feeling as he looked at the report sent by Tengda Games.
During this period, Pei Qian had been reminding Min Jingchao not to organize any more large-scale activities for the time being and to take a break.
On one hand, it was still early in the settlement cycle. There was no need to spend money now. On the other hand, it was to let IOI recuperate.
Although it seemed safe at the moment, Pei Qian smelled a sense of danger from the recent changes in GOG's game data that Min Jingchao had submitted.
That was because the number of new players, active players, and online time seemed to be growing faster than before!
Although Pei Qian could not see IOI's data, he guessed that IOI was probably in danger from the changes in GOG's data.
After all, these data would not grow for no reason. It was still growing faster without any activities. That meant that apart from natural growth, some players came from other games.
So, where else could these players have come from?
That was an obvious problem because there were no other large MOBA games at the moment …
The problem was, what should he do now?
What could he do to help them?
