Chapter 375: General Manager Yang's Signature Photo
Other game companies want to do an activity, especially for this kind of welfare activity, they need to consider various data, such as the growth of revenue proportion and the retention of players.
These activities are basically launched to stabilize the number of players in the game when the game is too fast or faces competitors.
After all, too many events have been launched, and players’ content in the game will become less, which will lead to online declines.
There is actually such a trend in "Biochemical Survival". Of course, this trend is for players of PVE content. They only play PVE dungeons and brush variously, but they have no interest in various entertainment modes and zombie modes.
When a copy of the content of a version is opened, they will probably AFK for a while. Ordinary game companies want to trap all players in the game day and night. Isn’t this AKF killing their KPI indicators?
So it often happens that there are few activities or the benefits paid for the activities are deducted by death, just like they are paying money to players.
Under the leadership of Yang Chen, Nebula Games, including its operation team, adheres to another concept.
Similar to the operation concept of a dream memory called "FF14", players do not need to log in to work every day, so that they can keep up with the pace of the version in every day.
Even if you let it go for a long time and return to the game again, you can open up the large version of the content at one time.
For those players who like to brush and brush, they will also add a lot of similar appearance props to the game, and reward them with various achievement props, so that they have enough movements to brush and brush.

In the project room of Nebula Games, Yang Chen and Wang Ye and others discussed how to solve the performance problem of "Silent Hill" on the VR platform.
On the other hand, when Yang Chen announced the news of "The Original Slayer" on his official blog, manufacturers in the game circle, especially those who also want to launch games during the same period also expressed their concern.
Although it was not Nebula Game or developed by Yang Chen, Lin Jiayi was not without any ability.
For example, in "Resident Evil 2" and "Assassin's Creed", he can see his skills.
However, no matter how much they pay attention, they can't do anything. After all, Nebula Games is not a small business anymore. I don't understand some off-market tricks. At the same time, the most important thing is to look at the game itself.
What they can do is to increase the publicity of their own games, hoping to make a beautiful start-up data at that time.
If the sales of the first day of the year are like "The Original Form of Sorrow", then there will be a promotional point. At that time, all kinds of advertising soft articles will be sent, and most players will probably have a little interest in their own games.
It is enough to be interested in attracting them to buy and play. Even if eight out of ten people have refunded, aren’t two left?
Including Silver Sea Games in "Legend of Swordsman", and other second- and third-tier game manufacturers, they all have this idea in their minds.
Yang Chen didn't pay much attention to these things, and even Lin Jiayi's press conference on "The Original Form of Slaughter" was not prepared to attend.
There are still many things on hand. I won’t talk about the project "Minecraft" that seems niche but is actually regarded by Yang Chen.
Some of the content on "Silent Hill" also gave Yang Chen a headache.
Through the VR development machine, Yang Chen also experienced the DEMO effect currently made.
There is not much problem with the picture quality. With the sound effects, just like most VR games, the immersion is still satisfactory.
The key is the setting of the fog. There is not much problem with the third person on the PC platform, but the magnification of the fog texture on the VR platform is not as good as imagined.
This is not a team problem, but a problem limited to ordinary VR devices.
"Try to deal with the fog as much as possible. There is no way to do enough immersion in this aspect, so just work on the sound effects. The immersion brought by the VR platform is not only visual, but also the sound effects environment is more important than visual." Yang Chen looked at Wang Ye and Chen Shu and said to others in the team.
Everyone listened with their ears.
"As I said before, the sound of footsteps is synchronized, but in some specific areas, such as muddy land and water, players control the character to move forward. When they suddenly stop, they will hear footsteps continue to ring for one or two."
Yang Chen knocked on the table with his hand to make an example.
"Or maybe a road is filled with water-stacked paths. When players pass by, the sound of water splashes will be mixed with the sound of water splashes, but when players leave the water-stacked paths, when they move forward, the water sponges will ring together with their steps." Yang Chen said with a smile on his face.
Everyone in the office listened to Yang Chen's words and imagined the scene in their minds, and couldn't help but tremble at the same time.
This is too cruel!
Immersed in VR mode and closed audio environment, will not scare players much, right?
With an accurate direction, Nebula Games has previously developed materials for "Resident Evil" and "Escape". There is no need to worry about the materials in this regard. All you need to do is to change the platform to convert the format.
After almost four days of work, Wang Ye and the others had already prepared the finished product and put it in front of Yang Chen.
"Are the test finished?" asked Yang Chen, who looked at Wang Ye and sat in his seat watching some of the team developing content of "Minecraft".
"I have tested two rounds. I haven't found a bug in the normal game yet. Mr. Yang, do you want to see what else to improve the actual effect in the game?" Wang Ye looked at Yang Chen with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
Test it yourself? Don’t you scare yourself to play such a terrifying game?
I used to test myself, just to test the fog effect of the game. Isn’t this self-abuse when testing this finished product by myself?
"The game is for players to play, whether it is fun or not, it is only the player who can decide whether it is fun or not. In the previous "Second Wolf: Shadow Falls" players had some prejudice against us, so we need to let players experience it in "Silent Hill" to see if this game is in harmony with their taste, and put the level of the inner and outer world converted in the endless corridors in the game as trial content, and give it to players for free for a limited time." Yang Chen coughed gently and said seriously.
Everything is for the players.
Suddenly thinking of something, Yang Chen said to Wang Ye: "By the way, the trial version is linked to the movies on Lu Ze. The movie "Silent Hill" will be released in the next year. Players who pass the trial content will randomly select 100 players, give away tickets to "Silent Hill", and also have a photo and autograph of the starring and director."
After all, it is a trial version, and it is too big to be able to do it, but it is still OK to take the opportunity to promote the popularity of the movie.
"By the way, I will select another 10 lucky audiences and give me my signature photo separately, and choose any game that has been released in Nebula Game for free; players who have not won the prize will enjoy a 20% discount on the full version of "Silent Hill" after passing the trial content of "Silent Hill".
After thinking about it, Yang Chen suddenly realized that it would not be too attractive to some players just by giving away movie tickets and autographed photos of the starring actors and directors.
But you can resist the temptation of the actor and director’s signature photo and movie tickets;
Let’s learn about Mr. Yang’s signature photo.
What? Not even interested?
Can you still tolerate the temptation that is free for free?
OK, even if you are an African, you never thought you could win the prize. Then isn’t there any consolation prize with a 20% discount on "Silent Hill"?
You said you still don’t want to play? Then the free limited-time discount is here. If you don’t play or receive it, you will lose a lot!
After this combination of punches, Yang Chen didn't believe that the players were not moved.
I was moved, so I had to experience the thrilling and exciting "Silent Hill"?
Chapter completed!
