Digital Life (Absolut01) - Chapter 44
[Forty-four.]
For Digital Totem, the most important thing right now is the closed beta of Rising.
Although there have been rumors in the industry that “Rise” is estimated to fail the censorship, it is strange that this article has not been published, and for the majority of players, having a good game is the most important thing.
When the account was issued in the closed test, the earliest quota was 10,000 people, but if a person working in the company has a friend who needs an account, they can basically meet the requirements.
This number is not a big pressure for the server group prepared for the beta test. The online game team even plans to gradually increase some accounts during the month of the beta test.
Closed test, open events The first Opium War, the Sino-Japanese naval battle, the Lugouqiao Incident, the Taierzhuang Battle, and the Battle of Crossing the River are 5 historical events. Each historical event only opens a map of one province. If averaged according to the total number of people, Basically the number of players left in each event is not much different from the number of players on a single server in most online games today.
This result is also the intention of the online game group. If tens of thousands of people appeared in the same scene at once, people who are used to the previous online games may not know how to deal with people.
In the core team of the online game team, there is a person named Du Danyang who assists Lu Zhenyu in coordinating all the work.
To say that in terms of game production, this person is really a very tasteless character.
When it comes to programming, this person has absolutely no idea, and when it comes to art, he has absolutely no idea. In terms of management work, he is also an absolute smasher, and it is such a person who is responsible for the closed beta test of “Rise” this time. All publicity and work.
Du Danyang joined the company’s online game group relatively late, and handed over his resume in the second round of recruitment for the online game group.
In the two rounds of interviews, Du Danyang did not show any very unique abilities and opinions, and he would not have been hired.
However, after hearing that Du Danyang came for an interview, several powerful planners and artists who had joined the company in the first round of recruitment secretly approached Lu Zhenyu and suggested that Lu Zhenyu should keep Du Danyang as a person.
Because, Du Danyang can really be regarded as a master of promotion in the field of online games.
Du Danyang used to work at kc soft, which also operates a game imported from South Korea called “Mystery Ring”.
As a game, “The Ring of Mystery” is far from excellent, especially in terms of program security. Originally, such a game is to maintain an immortal appearance, kc
Soft should not earn much money.
But Du Danyang, relying on his hype skills, constantly organizes online and offline activities, regularly does roadshows, participates in every possible exhibition, and tries his best to get in touch with players. He just hyped a bad game into 2004. One of the top ten online games every year, the impression in the minds of players is quite good.
But after all, this game is inherently deficient, and it gradually withered after a fire, and Du Danyang resigned after being exhausted, retreated at home, and declared that he would come out after a good enough game.
And Du Danyang actually took the initiative to vote for the digital totem door, and he did not recommend it through his friend relationship, but used the very accidental method of submitting a resume, which made everyone a little bit incomprehensible.
However, Du Danyang still entered the digital totem and became a member of the core team. In specific work, he is also proving his value little by little.
Although he doesn’t understand art, he can always select suitable pictures from tens of thousands of drafts, even those that are not used, and make very beautiful posters, which can be selected from the props that are loaded on the vehicle. He can produce things suitable for peripheral products and souvenirs, and he has a deep relationship in these channels. Digital totem outsources all kinds of things, from prints, themed clothing, souvenirs to large-scale inkjets, booths, etc., take The price is at least 10% lower than that of similar companies.
In this closed test, Lu Zhenyu simply handed over everything to him, and let him come up with his own plan and budget.
Du Danyang selected 300 lucky accounts from all accounts. On the first day of the closed test, these 300 people will participate in the launching ceremony of the closed test in the most luxurious Internet cafe in Shanghai, and will receive a beautiful gift.
This gift is actually very conventional, a full-open poster, an animation DVD and a client DVD, and a pendant of a soldier card. In the scene of the commanding heights Internet cafe, everyone can take this pendant and engrave it. their favorite text.
These are actually routine. What is more characteristic is that these 300 people will have one day to visit the digital totem online game group to visit, discuss, and even temporarily participate in work… This should be regarded as the most advanced interaction.
This should be the first time in the industry that the production department is open to players.
With these 300 players full of excitement, the commanding heights Internet cafe is very lively.
The on-site staff also introduced the activities in the Internet cafe to the netizens who were waiting online.
As the game’s boot time approached, the entire Internet cafe and the Internet gradually became quiet.
On the big screen in the middle of the Internet cafe, the 22-minute long title sequence produced by aviril studio began to play.
Embarrassed, the mixed feelings of anger and excitement were particularly strongly incited by the symphony of drums.
These episodes are mentioned more than once in everyone’s learning in school, but the problem with exam-oriented education is that you remember these things, but you don’t know what happened, and the textbooks can’t reflect these times. In front of everyone’s eyes, even though various TV movies have shown these themes more than once, how can it be so shocking and profound in the title of “Rise”?
“…We are making this game with some kind of pilgrimage mood. In our team, there are historians who have been immersed in historical materials for decades, and there are hundreds of years of research in fields related to national economy and people’s livelihood. To serve the current specialist scholars, there are sociologists who take insight into the world and human conditions as their own responsibility, there are folk music composers and performers who have gone upstream in the tide of this era, all kinds of professionals have gathered together, but more Most of them are young people like you and me. We can’t describe what we have experienced and learned since we started making this game. In various places, we keep seeing people mentioning that the modern history of China is read It is a history with the worst mood. Yes, it is true. When we have more and more historical materials and try our best to restore these histories with our methods, we are more and more painful. However, we cannot avoid these because of the pain. In the past few months, our entire team has worked hard to achieve these results that can be presented in front of you today. You can see various scenes, characters, props, and even the dialogue of each NPC in these environments, Please believe that as long as we can find historical materials, we have tried our best to present them in the game. UU reading www.sonicmtl.com Those NPCs in the game, those famous characters said in the game, they recorded what they said. Say what you say, claim what you say and what someone has heard them say. As we add all of that into this game, the game probably loses more of the ease and ease that it should have as a game and becomes more and more It is as solemn as a history book. Perhaps, from today, our game will have a solemnity, we will see the scenes that have happened in the game, and see how history has moved from one inevitability to another inevitability .In the game, where history will flow will be in the hands of all players, including you, I hope that in your hands, in this created world, something can happen that we are leading, able to Let history flow to another branch. After all, only here can history present another possibility, and present every possibility that everyone is willing to work hard for…” From the end of the animation, before the lights were turned on again, Lu Zhenyu started Standing in front of the podium on the edge of the screen, he began to say these words, and when he finished speaking, the lights were all turned on.
At this time, what is displayed on the big screen is a server frame diagram made by a three-dimensional animation.
Lu Zhenyu pressed the start button in front of him, the signal was immediately transmitted to the computer room, and the huge server array started to start…
In less than 5 minutes, all players can start entering the game.
They will begin to be moved by this very large, real and very dignified world.
