This is not a BUG, ​​this is a game feature

Chapter 59 When can Tianba Haoyuan be handed over?

"Star Wars" sold poorly.

It's not that it's outrageously bad, it's just that it's a bit low compared to the expected goals and popularity.

From the beginning of June to the end of June, a total of 14 copies of the early access version of the new game were sold.

This sales performance is completely inadequate for the current popularity of the game.

The reason why this happens, Chen Ba has also analyzed, is mainly because of the "black screen of death" problem caused by optimization bugs, which makes some players interested but afraid to play.

In order to eliminate this negative impression, Tianba Studio not only issued an announcement to clarify, but also made certain adjustments and optimizations to the game environment.

The first is the introduction of two new characters, Emperor Ziyang and Crazy Shark Supreme.

Then, Chen Ba, Yang Dong and others created an arcade entertainment mode that "disables ultimate sublimation".

Then, they spared no effort to invite major anchors, UP hosts and game media to help promote the game and clarify the false rumors that "non-3090 users are not allowed to play this game".

Unfortunately, with little success.

It's terrible to follow what others say!

Obviously, in simple image quality, even old 10-series graphics cards can play normally. In extreme sublimation mode, the most you can do is "the game crashes" and requires you to log in again.

But from time to time, it became that if you dare to play "Star Emperor" without the starting configuration of 3080, are you really not afraid of burning the graphics card?

This is a rumor!

If you don't go on the road to immortality, just turn the picture quality down a bit, it won't matter. You can play the game how you want it to be played, and it won't be affected at all.

By the way, Chen Ba is already considering changing the new arcade mode to "Ladder Ranking", while the original Road to Immortality retains "title acquisition" and becomes an entertainment mode.

no way!
Games are developed to make money. If most players are frightened by this threshold and dare not buy and play the game, how can they still make money?

The ranking system of Chengxian Road has been moved to the arcade mode. From now on, this mode will be regarded as entertainment and just have an achievement title.As a "taboo" method, extreme sublimation will probably never be seen in the future except on the road to immortality.

At least I won’t see you in the competition!
In order to attract a group of new players to "Star Emperor" while stabilizing the existing base, Chen Ba decided to hold an online competition.

Players can register within the game.

After the specified time, you can unlock the game-specific mode, match the qualifier opponents, and determine the top 64 candidates based on the victory ranking within one hour.

In the knockout stage, lots will be drawn to determine the opponents, and then Bo3 will advance to the quarterfinals.Starting from eight to four, the game becomes a Bo5 mode...

Although it is an online competition, Chen Ba is still very concerned about it. Not only has he prepared a large amount of bonuses, but also a batch of Star Emperor co-branded graphics cards as rewards.

"Actually, our game has no shortage of new players!"

Seeing that Brother Ba was worried about the future of "Star Emperor", Xiao Lu suddenly said: "Sales growth is very stable, which shows that we have new players entering the game every day."

"That's right!"

"Although most new players come here to test the performance after buying a new graphics card and use "Star Emperor" as 3DMark, there is one thing..."

Zhong Shengwei added: "Our players are very active. As long as they play the game "Star Emperor", they will basically continue to play it."

Such an alternative fighting game shows the powerful graphics of the Dream Build 5 engine. Due to the lack of similar competing products, even if it is unpopular, it will not be reduced to the point where no one plays it.

As long as someone is interested in the ultimate picture quality displayed by "Star Emperor", as long as someone changes to a new graphics card, there will be a steady stream of new players!
"Another point……"

"Isn't Lao Huang going to release a new generation of graphics cards? When the performance improves, the problems we encounter will be solved sooner or later." Zhong Shengwei said optimistically.

At present, the problems encountered by the new game are actually very simple.As long as the next generation of new graphics cards is released and players update their computer configurations one after another, the ultimate upgrade will not be so scary.

"That's a good idea, but what if Lao Huang squeezes out the toothpaste?" Chen Ba rolled his eyes and said.

Moore's Law is approaching the physical limit. Lao Huang's new generations of graphics cards are toothpaste-squeezing iterations, and it is difficult to say that performance will be significantly improved.

On the other hand, you can look forward to a hand with the A card.

Although the general applicability of A cards is weaker than that of N cards, the advantage is that the theoretical performance is strong enough, and "Star Emperor"'s adaptation and optimization of A cards is not inferior to that of N cards, which can fully unleash the performance.

"Having said that, our chicken blood optimization plan should not only optimize "Star Emperor", right?"

Yang Dong said thoughtfully: "Su's mother seems to be very interested in our chicken blood optimization plan, and even sent someone to learn about it."

"What does she want?"

When Chen Ba heard this, he immediately frowned and said, "She doesn't think that the chicken blood optimization used in "Star Emperor" can make the A card more usable, right?"

This is impossible.

First of all, chicken-blood optimization only targets the game "Star Emperor", and it may not have such a good effect if it is separated out separately.

Secondly, the A-card itself has the so-called chicken blood driver. What they lack is game adaptability rather than a new chicken blood optimization method.

"So she gave up after asking once. I also made it very clear that this is an optimization plan specifically for "Star Emperor"."

Yang Dong smiled: "The Dream Builder 5 engine official has invited us to share our game development experience with our peers at the upcoming developer conference."

Chen Ba: "..."

experience?What do you think?
Let me tell you, we made a super cool game using the Dream Builder 5 engine, but due to an optimization bug, a large number of players suffered black screen crashes?
Pull it down!

Rather than sharing experiences, it is more like a public execution to let many people know about the embarrassing things that happened in "Star Emperor".

He's not going. If you have the free time, wouldn't it be better to stay up late and work overtime to create a few new characters for "Star Emperor"?

"By the way, some players in the community have been asking when the official version of "Star Emperor" will be released? And when will Tianba Mansion be handed over?"

"The official version will depend on the situation."

Chen Ba estimated that it should be fine once he changes the Road to Immortality to entertainment mode and adds the ladder ranking system to the arcade.

As for Tianba Haoyuan...

just wait!
There are still a lot of things to deal with in "Star Emperor", so how can they have time to update "Household Simulator"?

Anyway, I’ve been waiting for half a year, so it’s only a few days.

Of course, that cannot be said.

To put it so bluntly and rudely, players who bought off-plan properties in "Lost House Simulator" must be very angry and feel that they have been cheated.

"Then let's put it another way..."

Chen Ba scratched his head and after thinking for a moment, he came to the conclusion: "Tianba Real Estate is preparing a handover ceremony full of surprises in order to compensate the owners, so stay tuned!"

What surprise?
Is the second extension a surprise?
