Chapter 310 - Holiday arrangements

On the 13th of February, COG began its testing.

This beta test didn’t have any deletion of files. Emperor dynasty entertainment had also launched some activities for beta players, such as free skins and cards.

After all, the marketing strategy of distributors these days was similar. If others gave it to you but you didn ‘t, the players would definitely scold you for being stingy.

After the beta started, the staff in charge of the operation of COG at Emperor dynasty entertainment all stared nervously at the data and player comments.

With Emperor dynasty Entertainment’s distribution channels, the number of active players and first-day retention of COG shouldn’t be too bad. Many people were hoping that it would get better numbers than League of Legends, giving Chen Mo a head-on blow.

However, Jin jieguang, the Head of Operations for the COG project, was a little worried.

He had played League of Legends before, and Chen Mo’s words still echoed in his mind. Compared to League of Legends, COG was a more complicated game. After the players had played the simplified version of the game, would they be able to get into the game smoothly?

Everything would only be known when the data came out.

After the beta started, players kept coming in.

There were more and more comments.

To Jin jieguang’s surprise, everyone’s comments seemed to be good.

Many of them were five-star ratings, which raised the overall rating of COG to 8.8, which had already exceeded the rating of League of Legends.

He randomly picked a few popular high star reviews and they were all full of praise.

“Very good! It’s almost a perfect replication of the original game of COG. I killed the players on the other side until they were Level 3 and could only tremble under the tower. It’s so cool!”

“I told you that this jungle is more fun. You can go wherever you want. And I feel that there are so many vegetables here. Many of them can’t even make up for it. You can just kill them. It’s so fun!”

“I think this is the true essence of COG. As for a certain Alliance … They can’t do it even if they have the ability. It’s boring.”

“I miss the dark Ranger so much! Controlling a bunch of skeletons and monsters to sweep the jungle, whoever came would be killed! It’s a pity that the name and model have been changed. It’s a pity that we didn’t get the copyright. ”

“Not bad, it’s quite fun. It’s very suitable for an RTS player like me. It’s simplified and emphasizes more on teamwork. It’s great!”

“What a great drawing style! This kind of game should be played with the original Western fantasy. I can’t play the cartoon style of a certain Alliance!”

There were also some bad reviews, but there weren’t many of them. In Jin jieguang’s opinion, many of the bad reviews were brainless abuse, such as the game experience was not good, too many people were killed, and so on, which had no reference value.

“Did Chen Zhao make a mistake? COG’s approach was the right one? Is it not that important to simplify the game content?” Jin jieguang couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

He was still a little uncertain, but from the current number of active players and player reviews, COG was doing very well under Emperor dynasty Entertainment’s promotion. Although it was hard to say for sure before the specific data came out, most people felt that it would be a game that could go head to head with League of Legends.

……

Chen Mo was unmoved by the release of COG.

He was in the studio making arrangements for the Valentine’s Day event of League of Legends and the update of the new version.

The list of people to stay in the imperial capital had been decided. There were ten people in total, including Chen Mo, enough to ensure the Valentine’s Day event and the update would go smoothly.

In fact, the new version of League of Legends was almost complete. There wasn’t much content, just five Champions, a introductory cinematic, and a ranked mode, but to Chen Mo, the game was only complete when it had these.

According to the original plan, a new skin would be released during the Valentine’s Day event on February 14th:[Heart Hunter] Vayne also had a special event: Within a week from February 14th to February 20th, forming a team to complete a certain number of games every day will earn gold coins, avatars, and 30 days of experience skins.

In other words, as long as the player logged in for seven days to form a party for combat, they would definitely receive a special Valentine’s Day profile picture box and a 30-day Vayne experience card. At the same time, the player could upgrade the experience card to a permanent skin by compensating the price difference of 60% of the original price.

On February 16th, the first day of the Lunar New Year, League of Legends would have a version update.

At the same time, on the 21st and 22nd, there would be battle revelry. From 19 to 23 O’ clock, all players who logged in would enjoy double gold coins and double experience. At the same time, every player who won a game would have a 3% chance of receiving a random permanent skin. The probability of this would be increased by 0.5% for every additional partner.

In other words, during this period, as long as players played the game and won, they would have a 5% chance of getting a random permanent skin.

Chen Mo had arranged this set of moves long before League of Legends was released, in order to make the most of the break during the spring Festival holiday and give League of Legends a big jump.

Other than Chen Mo, there were nine people left in the studio. Qian Kun, Zheng Hongxi, and Zhao Yunting were the core members. The other six were ordinary employees.

Four of the ordinary employees were locals of the capital, while the others had brought their parents to the capital and settled them in a hotel.

Chen Mo specifically reminded him of a few things to take note of before and after the spring Festival.

After the meeting, Zhao Yunting sneaked over to Chen Mo and said,””Well, manager, I’d like to take a day off tomorrow …”

“Eh? Tomorrow?” Chen Zhao didn’t react for a moment.

Zhao Yunting nodded.”That’s right. Isn’t it a holiday tomorrow?”

“Oh, oh, right.” Chen Zhao had almost forgotten.”Sure, no problem. Have fun.”

“Thank you, manager!” Zhao Yunting left happily.

“Manager, tomorrow …” Zheng Hongxi also ran over and said.

“No problem.” Chen Mo nodded.”I’ll give you a day off tomorrow.”

“Thank you, manager!” Zheng Hongxi also left happily.

“It’s Valentine’s Day tomorrow,” Chen Zhao asked.”Who else is celebrating?” If there’s a need for a holiday, then take it. ”

“Thank you, manager!” Most of the people cheered.

In the end, out of the nine employees in the experience store, only Qian Kun and another guy didn’t have to celebrate.

“Good luck!” Chen Mo patted Qian Kun’s shoulder,”I’ll leave the update to you two.”

“I understand, manager!” Qian Kun said with a solemn expression,”I will do my best as a single dog!”

Chen Mo nodded. Sure enough, Qian Kun was the most reliable person in critical moments!

Qian Kun suddenly thought of something and asked,””Manager, I don’t think you have any festivals to celebrate, right?”

…Get out!
