Chapter 58 Co-branded Graphics Cards
Tianba Studio issued a warning to some graphics card sellers for abusing or using the promotional images of the game "Star Emperor" without authorization.
Warnings are still useful.
At least on a certain e-commerce platform, third-party sellers no longer dare to take risks and use promotional pictures or videos of "Star Emperor" to deceive newbies.
But this is just third-party sellers, and higher-level and smarter graphics card manufacturers have already grasped the point.
Unauthorized, right?
Then why don't we just ask you for authorization? No, no, no! More than authorization, buddy, your game is really awesome. I think we can cooperate and launch a "Star Emperor" co-branded graphics card. What do you think?
Chen Ba symbolically hesitated for a second, then nodded in agreement.
He gave too much!
Judging from the current situation, "Star Emperor" is not far from failure. In order to recover the losses as much as possible and accumulate development funds for the next new game, this is acceptable.
As a result, the two parties hit it off and soon Darenshuo launched a new game co-branded product - RTX 3080 Star Emperor Edition! Star Emperor is still popular.
Although not many copies of the early access version were sold and the newly released optimization bugs discouraged many low-spec players from playing it, it is still a top-notch star in the graphics card circle.
Never mind the game sales and mostly negative reviews, just talk about how heated the discussion is!
Da Renshuo also noticed this and specially approached Tianba Studio to launch the so-called "Star Emperor" co-branded graphics card.
You know what, this collaboration was quite successful.
With remarkable designs in terms of materials, fan blades, and ultra-cooling technology, coupled with a barely acceptable price, this co-branded 3080 graphics card is selling very well.
Of course, this is not the main reason.
The real reason for the popularity of this card is actually the mining card scandal in the 30 series, which made most players turn pale at the mention of it.
It just so happened that a co-branded graphics card was released, and it was positioned as a high-end flagship. Everyone felt that the probability of a co-branded card failing was very low, so it sold very well.
The success of the RTX3080 Starry Sky Emperor Edition has also made graphics card manufacturers such as Ju Baojia, Xicanhong and Shrinking Star smell business opportunities.
In this era when the 30 series is all mining by default, everyone's graphics cards are not selling well. At this time, the co-branded graphics cards of Renshuo next door are very popular. Shouldn't they follow suit? If you drive one sheep, you can drive a flock of sheep too! With the idea of accepting all offers, Chen Ba agreed to all of them.
However, due to discussions with Da Renshuo, the "Star Emperor" collaboration can no longer be used.
But it's not a big problem.
Although the Starry Sky Emperor is no longer useful, we still have the Long Night Emperor and the Universe Emperor!
The name of the Great Emperor is not enough? Don't worry, there is also the Supreme Alien! As long as you want to do a joint name, Tianba Studio can definitely come up with a joint name plan, and you are guaranteed to be satisfied!
…
[Major update: The miserable rainbow x star emperor will soon launch the GeForce RTX 3070Ti Black Turtle Extreme Edition, more details...]
You call this a major update?
Guo Mo, who had just installed a new graphics card and entrusted his 1070Ti to an honest man, couldn't wait to log in to "Star Emperor" to try out the performance of the new graphics card.
As a result, as soon as he entered the game, he was speechless by a series of game update announcements.
The last time I was so speechless was when “Living With Someone Else” released more than a dozen patches in a row to regulate housing prices.
This time, I have made progress! It is not to regulate housing prices, and Tianshuxing cannot speculate in housing. This time, it is to engage in joint graphics card cooperation. There are five or six consecutive update announcements, all of which are various joint announcements.
"If you don't know, you might think this is the official website of some graphics card manufacturer..."
After complaining about Tianba Studio’s outrageous actions, Guo Mo didn’t even look at the rest of the joint announcement and directly clicked on the game matching interface.
"Arcade mode?"
The new arcade mode of "Star Emperor" immediately attracted Guo Mo's attention.
When he clicked on the mode introduction, he suddenly realized: "It turns out that the extreme sublimation is disabled, and the entertainment mode of 1V1, 2V2 and 3V3 is supported."
It's quite interesting to watch.
In Arcade Mode, 1V1 is no different from Normal Mode except that Ascension is disabled.
But 2V2 and 3V3 are special.
In multiplayer team mode, you can be resurrected infinitely after death, and you can change the combat character during the resurrection time.
The game map has also become larger, and the planets on the map cannot be destroyed. Players in the Supreme camp can absorb the essence of life, while the Emperor camp needs to protect the common people.
The planets whose essence is absorbed by the Supreme can be revived under the protection of the Great Emperor. Protection/Slaughter are both separate skills that require reading before they can be released.
Within 10 minutes, the winner is determined by the number of planets occupied by both sides.
It's actually a point-taking deathmatch mode!
Disabling extreme sublimation and supporting up to 3-person team is a good highlight, but that’s all.
After installing the new graphics card, Guo Mo, feeling good, will not play the arcade mode. He wants to challenge the path to becoming an immortal again.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"In this life, I will become an immortal!"
With 3080 in hand, Guo Mo felt that there would be few people who could rival him on the road to becoming an immortal, and his name would definitely be on the list of immortals in this life.
"Fuck, someone has already become an immortal?"
He accidentally clicked on the ranking list and saw a series of seven or eight life-long mortal immortals, as well as an immortal king. He couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
Guigui! Who are these people? Calculating the time, from the release of the early access version of "Star Emperor" to now, it has only been 20 days, right?
He became the Immortal King so quickly, overlooking the eternity and stepping on the Supreme Emperor. This player named [Aikai Cullinan] is definitely not an ordinary person!
If someone else came up with this kind of ID, Guo Mo might have doubted its authenticity and questioned whether the other person had the ability to drive a Cullinan.
But this Immortal King...
Maybe there really is a Cullinan in the garage! "It doesn't matter, I can't get one!"
Guo Mo was very calm. After all, he had only played two ranked games with this account, and lost both. He was only at the first level of the Emperor level now.
No matter how powerful the big guys on the list are, is it possible for them to make the list?
Stop kidding! His 3080 graphics card is invincible at least below the Heavenly Emperor level.
When entering the game, the opponent's ID had a very high concentration of two-dimensional elements. At first glance, he was a poor otaku, and his realm was also the same as his, at the first level of the Great Emperor.
[Zang Ai Xiao Mo]: "Just commit suicide, I don't want to hurt you!"
[Saber Dog]: "I just bought a 3090. I heard this game is good. Why are people talking so aggressively?"
Yo! Are you ready?
With your ID, you tell me you are 3090? You should pretend to be more reliable, right?
Guo Moya was almost laughing, and was too lazy to talk to him. He just went up and used his highest level of sublimation, the highest 12G video memory and the 350W power consumption forbidden secret technique at full power.
One minute later.
Looking at the restarted game client, Guo Mo lit a cigarette expressionlessly and fell into deep thought in the smoke.
Miscalculated! To come up with such a crappy name, a kid who is only at the first level of the Great Emperor Realm, actually didn't brag...
It's not easy to update the new book, I hope you understand.
