Chapter 396 This is just starting to make toys, why did it become like this

On the second day after Yang Chen's live broadcast ended, Nebula Games officially announced the opening of multiplayer mode. Accommodate 10,000 players online at the same time.

At the same time, in order to consider the occurrence of a ghost server on a certain server in the later stage, there will still be an operation of server merging in the later stage, but it is not to put the players of the two servers on one continent, but similar to the Asian and American plate, the middle interval with an ocean.

After the server merge, if players want to meet each other, they have to develop industrial shipbuilding, and then enter the other side's continent. Of course, they can also build airplanes. It depends on the level of industrial development of the two server players.

Of course, considering the development speed of guild players in the multiplayer mode, the power must be stronger than that of pure individual players.

Moreover, in the game, the Lone Ranger occupation still occupies the vast majority.

Yang Chen also didn't want to force these players to socialize in the game, such as setting up some special settings, saying that the benefits are higher when there are multiple people in a team, or simply setting a threshold that only multiple people can participate.

Most games do this, the main purpose is to strengthen the social interaction in the game, and then increase the player's exit cost.

There are many games of this type, why should we strengthen the social interaction of multiplayer teams?

Is it really necessary?

It's all fart.

The most important thing is to allow players to add a social cost of abandoning the pit in addition to the cost of krypton gold abandoning the pit.

Even if you have no interest in this game, but you still have a lot of good friends in this game, this virtually becomes a chain, which makes you hesitate a little about abandoning the pit game.

In "My World", Yang Chen cannot deny that social gameplay is indeed one of the charms of "My World", but it is definitely not necessary to socialize.

"Mr. Yang, do you want to add more servers? The 100 servers in front of you are all fully loaded!"

The supervisor at the background side of the Xingyun game reported the latest situation to Yang Chen with a nervous expression on his face.

It was originally planned to open 50 servers at the beginning, but due to the popularity of the game's entries and sales, this number has become 100.

But after the multiplayer mode is really opened,

In the end, they still underestimated the enthusiasm of the players a bit. With 100 servers, each player can only choose one server to build an account. Even so, the first 100 servers were full within two hours.

"Ten servers will be opened every hour until they are saturated, and after the final server is saturated, five new servers will be added every two weeks." Yang Chen thought for a while and said.

The multiplayer mode of "Minecraft" also maintains a very high degree of freedom. What Yang Chen gives players is just a sand table world. What this sand table world will turn into in the end depends on the players themselves. will.

Players who like war, destroy and cause trouble in the game; players who like scientific research, engage in technological research in the game; players who like building houses, develop urban civilization in the game;

It can be said that there are all types of players. If there are too many players who like to fight in a world, a small number of scientific research and Buddhist construction players don't want to stay in this server, even if there is a peaceful mode.

Then they can choose to settle in a new server. In the same city, if most of them are players who like construction and research, and players who like war feel boring because they can't fight, then they can also choose to settle in a new server.

…………

Compared to Yang Chen who is observing the specific situation of the multiplayer mode of "Minecraft" with the team members, other people in the industry have been paying attention to "Minecraft".

One of the most critical points is whether the Amiibo in the Nebula game "Minecraft" can be profitable.

It can be said that the game "Minecraft" is an unprecedented experience, and it can even be said to be an expansion of the game mode.

Open sandbox games are not too unfamiliar to most people.

But before "Minecraft", this type of game was more about a game like "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim" developed by Nebula Games.

And what about Minecraft?

The extremely free gameplay can be said to be a kind of surprise and shock to everyone.

It turns out that the game can also do this! ?

But for such a game, in addition to the game itself, Nebula Games seems to want to charge more from Amiibo, a special novelty?

This makes many people a little bit confused.

‘What do you think of Nebula Games’ Minecraft? '

The price of '60 can only be said to be the standard of ordinary indie games, and the contents of in-app purchases are all linked with Amiibo. '

‘However, combining physical toys with virtual items, Nebula Games is also a bit risky. '

‘I feel that the Amiibo promoted by Xingyun Games is a bit confusing. If players are willing to pay, they will definitely buy the content of the mall in the game, but if they don’t want to, this Amiibo probably won’t buy it. '

'+1, and the price of 60 yuan seems to be a bit low for the game "Minecraft". '

In a certain chat group in the industry, a group of people chatted with each other.

In Nebula Games, regarding the situation of "Minecraft" and Amiibo, Yang Chen is making strategic arrangements and communication with Xu Yu.

"The current sales of Amiibo are not bad. As a new solid building block toy that is not so cheap, the sales volume of 200,000 in the country is already very good." Xu Yu looked at Yang Chen and said.

Of course, most of the sales of 200,000 copies were contributed by "Minecraft", and not all of them were large buildings like Helgen.

But it hasn't been long since Amiibo went online, and as Xu Yu said, there has been no massive promotion, so this statistic is pretty good.

"The preparations for the MOD community are basically completed." Yang Chen nodded with a smile on his face.

This is a very important point, that is about the connection between the MOD community and "Minecraft".

MOD will occupy a large proportion in "My World", and compared with the immature profit linkage of map MOD in "Warcraft" before, Yang Chen and Xu Yu are more perfect in "My World" A plan, a plan with Amiibo.

For example, the MOD team or the construction team built magnificent buildings such as "Snowman City", "Solitary City" and "Diamond Dog Base" in the game. Without copyright issues, they can communicate with MOD and launch Amiibo Then a part of the profits will be given to the MOD authors, forming a good virtuous circle.

For some functional MOD, the official content MOD server can be launched, and the MOD creators can be given profits.

"Also, Mr. Yang, the development of the mobile terminal of "Minecraft" has to be accelerated." Xu Yu thought of something and said to Yang Chen.

"What's the matter?" Hearing Xu Yu's words, Yang Chen asked curiously.

You must know that in terms of games, especially when it comes to development, Xu Yu generally doesn't care about it.

Now he suddenly asked about the development status of the mobile terminal of "Minecraft", which made Yang Chen a little curious.

"Has Mr. Yang observed the data? According to the statistics of the account information in the background, a large part of "Minecraft" players are young players." Xu Yu said to Yang Chen.

"Minecraft" players are a little younger, does this have much to do with it?

"My World" itself is a game that can be said to be a family carnival. No matter how old you are, you can find fun in "My World", and although "My World" has a combat mode, it is not as bloody and violent. But it doesn't stick at all.

Seeing Yang Chen's bewildered and ignorant face, Xu Yu, who was sitting on the sofa, sighed, then walked to the display board on the side of the office, picked up the whiteboard marker on the shelf, and explained to Yang Chen.

"According to the latest statistics, players under the age of 20 account for 35% of the mobile game player population." Standing there, Xu Yu drew a ladder on the blackboard with a whiteboard marker in his hand. state diagram.

"From the perspective of payment, this group occupies the second place among all player groups. In addition, Amiibo in "Minecraft" is a game of puzzle building blocks." Xu Yu looked at Yang Chen with a smile on his face. smiling.

Therefore, launching the mobile version of "Minecraft" is to sell building blocks to children!

Yang Chen stared wide-eyed at Xu Yu.

No, this is just the start of making toys! No matter how I feel, my heart has become a little dark.

Xu Yu, who was a little embarrassed by Yang Chen's eyes, probably guessed what Yang Chen was thinking, and coughed lightly: "Put the phone and games there, children will play other games even if they don't play "Minecraft". Games, if you don’t buy Amiibo, you will buy other 648. In contrast, “Minecraft” can be said to be a family game, and it also has educational elements. In addition, Amiibo toys can also cultivate their hands-on and thinking Ability, Mr. Yang, if you have a child in the future, what kind of game do you want him to play?"

? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Yang Chen opened his eyes wide and looked at Xu Yu.

In a sense, what this said sounds really reasonable.

But according to this logic, if others have to spend money in "Minecraft", I have to thank them! ?

The heart of making toys is black!

This has just come into contact with toys, and it has become like this.

Yang Chen sighed in his heart, and then said to Xu Yu, "The mobile version has been developed almost, and the last beta version test has just ended, and the advertisements in the propaganda department have also been placed."

The mobile version of "My World" is in the preparation stage before going online, and the other side of the "My World" related information has also come out.

Needless to say about the sales part, it can only be said that the Nebula game is still the Nebula game.

As for Amiibo sales, the sales of 310,000 copies seem to be quite impressive.

But comparing the sales volume of "Minecraft", this number seems a bit insufficient.

When such a data came out, some people in the game circle immediately started to discuss it.

The sales volume of 310,000 seems to be relatively impressive, but the key is that this is the early stage of the game’s launch, and the situation with the highest sales volume of a game, except for major version updates and activities, is during this period of time when it goes online.

The stride was too big, and a group of people in the industry in the game circle were discussing with each other.

As for the words of "Xingyun Game, Yang Chen has fallen from the altar since then", no one said anything.

After all, the million-level sales of "Minecraft" are placed here, and according to this trend, it can be said that the overseas sales will exceed 10 million after it goes online.

Yang Chen didn't pay attention to the voices on the Internet at all, because the mobile terminal of "Minecraft" was officially launched.

Compared with the client version of "Minecraft", the general gameplay of the mobile version of "Minecraft" is still the same, but considering the configuration of each mobile phone model, some content is still castrated.

As for the server, it can be said that there are no 10,000-person servers on the PC platform on the mobile side.

Therefore, in terms of data, the two platforms are not connected

But the point is that Minecraft on mobile is free.

‘The performance of "Minecraft" on the mobile terminal is not bad, and the optimization is also quite good, but I still feel that the PC platform is more fun. '

‘+1, I feel that the PC platform is more fun, but after all, it is a mobile platform, and it’s good to build a building when you’re bored when you go to work and take the subway. '

‘By the way, whoever noticed, Amiibo seems to share the two platforms. '

After ordinary players download the mobile terminal of "Minecraft", they subconsciously compare it with the PC platform.

But for a certain type of players, this is not the case. They have no way to touch the computer on weekdays.

In Tuanjie Elementary School, as soon as the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Li Haoran ran to his friends with the mobile phone in his hand. He couldn't wait to show off in front of his friends.

"Hey, here, put wood here, you are so stupid!"

"Don't rush, don't rush, I can't find my way home."

When Li Haoran felt it, a group of his little friends gathered around and had a heated discussion.

"Ahem, are you still building a house? I've already built a very big house!" Li Haoran said in a somewhat showy tone.

It took him a long time to build it, and it wasn't one of those little black houses.

It's just that his friend's reaction made him even more confused.

"Who still builds a house by himself? We are all playing with this redstone technology now! And we can also make cars and race cars together."

The friends shook their phones.

Looking at the "Minecraft" game screen on my friend's mobile phone, Li Haoran was shocked.

Such a big, beautiful villa!

"You guys, how did you build it?" Li Haoran was extremely curious.

"Who still builds it by himself? It's that building block toy. There's a small card in it, you put it behind your phone, and then use the signal to search for it." The little friend shook the phone proudly, and it was only then that Li Haoran noticed his phone There is a card inside the transparent shell, and the pattern on it is the big house seen before.

"Are you skipping breakfast and secretly spending money to buy game props? Aren't you afraid that your mother will beat you to death?" Li Haoran's eyes widened.

"Who said I did it secretly? My mother bought it for me. I told you that you would do better in the exam, and then I told your mother that the teacher said that building block toys are good for intellectual development. She will buy it for you and will praise you What about you!" The little friend said proudly.

Is there such an operation!

Li Haoran's eyes widened.

But he thought a little further than his friends. Since building block toys are good for intellectual development, is it because he didn't play the game that he couldn't rely on high scores?
