Zhan Qixiong's whereabouts are unknown, which makes Lin Feng extremely worried. However, in addition to let Li Rui and others pay close attention, there is nothing to do. Japan and South Korea have completely sealed off the waters near Dokdo. Lin Feng's people can't get close at all. They can only send people disguised as fishermen to search carefully. However, in the vast sea, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack to search for a person.
While anxiously waiting for the whereabouts of Zhan Qixiong, Lin Feng held the first meeting after the long holiday.
"Ladies and gentlemen, first of all, let's welcome two former Blizzard directors, Mike mowami and bill Roper, as well as other Blizzard colleagues, to join second world." Lin Feng stood up and took the lead in clapping.
"Pa, Pa" a burst of warm applause.
Blizzard has always been a legend in the game industry. A studio with only 15 people at the beginning can become a game company with tens of millions of users. This development process is admirable. Of course, the most amazing thing is that Blizzard has only three games so far, unlike other game companies that have been established for more than ten years and have developed at least hundreds of games. However, perhaps it is this attitude of continuous improvement that makes Blizzard have today's achievements——
Blizzard products, must be a boutique!
This sentence, in the industry is how jingle, admirable, admirable! Now, this legendary company has joined its own company, which makes all employees of "second world" excited. You know, although "second world" is also a legend, it's in the online game industry. However, in terms of stand-alone games, "second world" has no works of its own. So far, it has only launched "half life 2" and "hero invincible 4". The sales of these two games are good, with more than 5 million copies, However, compared with "second world", which has a market value of nearly 100 billion yuan, it is too shabby to launch only two games in three years. You know, Blizzard only has more than 150 employees, and "second world" only has thousands of employees in the game development department, which is not the same.
Nowadays, "blizzard" joining "second world" can undoubtedly help "second world" to open up a new world in the stand-alone game market. Moreover, Blizzard's main customers are in Europe and the United States, which can make "second world" Games successfully enter the European and American markets. At present, the popular "second world" games in Europe and the United States are "virtual life" and "crazy farm", But these two games are not absolutely mainstream, especially "crazy farm". With the decline of European and American players' enthusiasm for "stealing vegetables", and a large number of similar games coming on the market, players' enthusiasm is slowly decreasing.
Now, with the joining of Blizzard, with the popularity of blizzard in Europe and the United States, "second world" games will be more acceptable to European and American players. At least European and American players will be interested in trying other games launched by Blizzard's joining company. For example, games that are not so western, games that are more Oriental.
Wu Zhaopu is very excited about the joining of blizzard. He firmly believes that Blizzard will be the most important weight for "the second world" to dominate the game industry.
After a burst of warm applause, Lin Feng announced.
"Now the company has set up" the ninth game development department "and" the tenth game development department. "‘ The director of the ninth game development department is Mike mowami, who is mainly responsible for the development of Warcraft, StarCraft and world of Warcraft. The director of the tenth game studio is Bill Roper, who is temporarily responsible for the development of Diablo series Lin Feng announced.
The crowd applauded again. You know, there are many people in "second world" company who are fans of "blizzard". Now Blizzard joins the company, which is undoubtedly the best news for everyone. What does this mean? It means that people can play Blizzard first, and they can be the first trial player of Blizzard's new game.
"Mr. Mike mowami, when will StarCraft 2 come out?"“ Cui Ming, head of the first game development department, said with his eyes shining.
"Well, it's still under planning." Mike mowumi has met this problem for countless times. Before, he only knew it with a smile, but now everyone belongs to the same company, so he can't ignore it any more. However, Blizzard's purpose is to work slowly and carefully, and won't launch games for the sake of launching games.
"Bill, when will Diablo 3 come out?"“ Qiu Xin, director of the second game development department, asked excitedly.
"Well, it's under planning. This will be our main focus in the near future." Bill Roper didn't make any polite remarks. After all, they have been planning to develop Diablo 3.
"Pa, Pa" can't help but burst into applause in the conference room, and some people can't help cheering.
Diablo 3 is finally being developed! You know, in order to "Diablo 3", countless players have been waiting too long, a "Diablo 2" has been played by many players for many times. According to a foreign media survey, the maximum game time of a player in "Diablo 2" has reached 7000 hours!
7000 hours! It's a pretty scary time! You know, it's only 1287 days since Diablo 2 was released (launched on June 27, 2000), and the player's game time is more than 7000 hours, which is equivalent to 5.43 hours a day. It's really terrible. However, the player also collected almost all the props and equipment in Diablo 2, which has been called "Diablo" by many players.
These high-level leaders of the "second world" will not be so crazy, but they can definitely be called "dark fans". For "Diablo fans", it is undoubtedly a great new year gift to hear about the development plan of Diablo 3. Although the new year has just passed and it's January 5, it's still a great new year gift.
Looking at the excited expression on the face of many high-level people here, Lin Feng also secretly shakes his head. Lin Feng really did not expect that these high-level people would be so obsessed, but it also proves the charm of blizzard. In fact, including Lin Feng himself, he also looks forward to Diablo 3. Because Lin Feng is not very good at "instant strategy" games, he belongs to the lower middle level among amateur players, so he likes stand-alone games most of the time except the occasional online game. Diablo 2 is undoubtedly a great choice. Once (before rebirth) was also a very fanatical "Blizzard fan", now (after rebirth) is not so fanatical, that is because now Lin Feng's identity is not the same, there are more things to socialize every day, less time to play games, and there are too many entertainment festivals to choose from, so naturally his enthusiasm for games is not so fanatical!
Fortunately, I bought Blizzard—— Lin Feng was filled with emotion at the moment.
"Well, let's get to the point now!" Lin Feng motioned everyone to start their own work. This is the first meeting since 2004. We will discuss the work focus and plan of the whole year, and 2004 will be a very critical year for the "second world".
According to the Convention, Cui Mingze, the "first game development department", took the lead in speaking!
"Boss, at present, legend still has about 100000 people online. I've started to merge districts gradually, and finally hope to ensure that there are only 10 districts. At the same time, I plan to develop the 3D version of legend." Cui Ming said.
Cui Ming had been planning for the 3D version of legend before, but it was stalled due to the development of "dance group" and "virtual life". Now he has no other tasks, so he just goes to plan for the 3D version of legend.
Lin Feng shook his head.
"Minister Cui, I don't think it's meaningful to make legend 3D. It's better to beautify the existing legend and make the picture more beautiful《 Legend focuses on PK. For players, the most important thing is pleasure, not 3D. Now the picture of legend is a little bit worse, but just beautify it. Also, I propose to revise the PK rules of legend. " Lin Feng suggested.
In Lin Feng's opinion, most of the players who are still infatuated with legend like PK, like the pleasure of PK attacking opponent's equipment in legend. But at present, "legend" because of the existence of "random scroll", PK, it is difficult to kill each other p, often let each other escape, which is also the most common complaint of the "K family". After all, the purpose of using all kinds of stratagems to block the opponent is to "kill" the opponent. As a result, the opponent ran away at the last moment, which is not very frustrating!
Although the runaway side is very happy, but when it specifically for the "killing" side, it will be very depressed, very tangled! Therefore, Lin Feng's proposal will raise the price of "random scrolls". At present, the "random scroll" only sells 100 gold coins, but it's just 100 gold coins. Players buy it in a bundle. Lin Feng wants to upgrade it to 10000 gold coins. Of course, because "random scrolls" are often used as "tools" for players to go on the road, Lin Feng suggests that "random scrolls" be divided into two types: ordinary random scrolls and wartime random scrolls.
Ordinary random scrolls remain the same price, but cannot be used in combat. The "battle random scroll" can be separated from the battle in the process of battle. Of course, if you want to get rid of the battle, you will naturally pay a huge price - 10000 gold coins. If it is as high as 10000 gold coins, Lin Feng believes that many people will hesitate when using the scroll. And it can also maintain the balance of financial order in the game system in disguise( To be continued, if you want to know the future, please log in www.qidian.com , more chapters, support authors, support legitimate reading!)
