Chapter 659
On October 7, the TTK mobile phone was released.
In less than half a day,
"Top" appeared at the top of the sales list of Future store.
As for the specific sales of mobile phones, Youmei Technology did not disclose it.
The data given by other third-party forecasting agencies are also quite different.
However, considering the status of Future offline stores in various places, the delivery date of Future official website is almost scheduled for the next month.
In addition, the current situation of "Top" is only available on Future mobile phones.
Almost everyone knows how well the mobile phone sells.
It is definitely not inferior to the epoch-making Future S1 at that time.
And this answer really makes many people find it difficult to accept.
Because two years later, Future S2 once again threw a stone into the fish pond, and then the waves it set off spread layer by layer, causing many companies in multiple industries to be greatly affected.
Among them, the mobile phone market, Jiaming Alliance was the first to bear the brunt. The mobile
phone market, which had finally stabilized, was reshuffled again. Future S2's multiple updates made it once again widen the gap with the catching up Jiaming Alliance, and the balance in the hearts of users tilted again.
As for food delivery and taxi-hailing, Youmei Technology supported "Food Delivery at Fandian" and "Leave Home Safe" at the press conference, and the advantages of the subsequent first-mover widgets began to emerge.
"Food Delivery at Fandian" and "Leave Home Safe" have seen a huge increase in the user growth rate in first-tier cities...or to be more precise, in various cities.
And the price they paid for this is almost zero.
This is the most difficult thing for the competitors of "Food Delivery at Fandian" and "Leave Home Safe" to accept.
Everyone is burning money.
How can you achieve the results that everyone else can achieve without burning money?
What makes the competitors of "Food Delivery at Fandian" and "Leave Home Safe" collapse even more is that the fate of Linmu Studio and Youmei Technology has a huge impact on investment institutions.
Linmu Studio and Youmei Technology are both WeChat traffic entrances and widgets.
Many investment institutions have begun to consider whether betting on the competitors of "Food Delivery at Fandian" and "Leave Home Safe" will lose all their money.
And this makes them more and more cautious in giving money.
But now is the time when the competitors of "Fandian Takeaway" and "Leave Home Safe" need money the most.
If they don't spend money, they can only watch "Fandian Takeaway" and "Leave Home Safe" kill each other...
Both sides have their reasons.
If you don't give me money, I can't beat them.
But if I give you money, it's better to give money to your competitors, after all, you can't beat them anyway.
Soon, things turned out like this...
This can be regarded as a chain reaction.
The existence of Linmu Studio has really changed too many things.
As for mobile games, let alone.
The impact on Linmu Studio's peers is second only to the mobile phone market, because "Top" is currently the only mobile game that can perfectly play all the updates of Future S2.
The combination of new hardware and new mobile games is unexpectedly in sync.
The larger screen, high refresh rate and processor upgrade make the performance of "Top" almost impeccable.
Users bought new mobile phones and were attracted to it almost as soon as they got started.
The mobile games that fully retain the essence of MOBA end games and are convenient are simply invincible...
Light players are directly addicted, and traditional players don't mind playing them as supplementary games before going to bed or in fragmented time.
This is also the reason why this game topped the Future store sales list so quickly.
And the Future store sales list, to a certain extent, can be said to be a vane for mobile games.
Before "Climb to the Top" appeared, "Day of Reincarnation" had always been at the top of the list.
"Day of Reincarnation" also proved how much money it made.
So many peers started to make games of the same type.
And some time ago, Tianhu's "Under the Dark Night" was also a great success, which gave peers great confidence.
They were ready to make a big move.
But with a snap.
"Climb to the Top" came out.
Although it doesn't mean that after this game came out, there will be no audience for card drawing games, and no players will play them.
There must be players playing them.
However, the popularity and popularity will definitely be much less than before.
After all, now they not only have to compete with "Day of Reincarnation" and "Under the Dark Night" of the same type, but also with "Top", which is completely different in type but more popular than the card drawing game.
And the latter is still in the limelight... How can they compete?
The only better one is probably Tianhu. "Under the Dark Night" was launched before "Top" came out and took advantage of the live broadcast war.
They became another winner by accident.
It's all over...
Many peers were very pessimistic when they saw "Top" top.
But soon, peers found that they were too pessimistic.
This is just the beginning.
For the next half a month.
With the continued hot sales of Future S2.
"Top" has never fallen from the top of the sales list... Not only has the relevant popularity not decreased, but it has become higher and higher.
And the most terrifying thing is.
Many peers have found that this game is not like a card-drawing mobile game. Many players who have never played traditional games have a high degree of acceptance of this mobile game, including a large number of female users.
They even like this mobile game more than traditional players.
After all, compared with traditional games that cost more time and require a certain amount of hardware,
the cost of mobile games is really too low.
This already has the temperament of becoming a phenomenal game...
Lin Mu Studio's peers noticed this and collectively took a breath of cold air.
This is really too exaggerated.
Is the miracle of "Day of Reincarnation"... coming again?
...
The hot sales of Future S2 have indeed greatly broadened the audience of "Top".
And the portability and gameplay of this game have indeed made it a sign of becoming a phenomenal game.
However.
So far, it has not reached that point. After all,
it takes a certain amount of time to spread, and the current devices for the game to log in are indeed somewhat single. The reason
why Lin Yao's previous life's MOBA mobile game became the king of the mobile game market is actually closely related to the full blossoming of smartphones.
However.
Although smartphones here have blossomed, most of them are still in the early stages, and the hardware level is too weak, which is still far behind Lin Yao's previous life.
However, Lin Yao believes that with the hot sales of Future S2, these will not be a problem soon.
This is just like the launch of Future S1, when WeChat realized multi-platform login not long after.
Future S2 will become a catalyst and a powerful medicine to push peers to keep up.
After all, if you don't keep up, you will die.
And then... it will be the time for "Climbing to the Top".
Now is just the beginning.
Inside Linmu Studio.
The mobile game department in charge of Kang Yi has already assigned some staff to prepare for the game to adapt to the operating system of Jiaming Alliance.
As for Lin Yao.
Although she also pays attention to the status of mobile games, after the press conference, she still puts more energy into the next development strategy planning of Youmei Technology, as well as the existing projects of the PC and console departments.
It's not that she doesn't value mobile games. But now that "Climbing
to the Top" has been launched, if she still has to worry about all aspects of the subsequent operation, she will be exhausted.
But the next development strategy of Youmei Technology and the existing projects of the PC and console departments are different.
The former needs her experience.
The latter has added a lot of projects because of her "messing around".
Although Lin Yao said at the beginning that she wanted to let the two departments do it.
But obviously.
Zhong Xiu and Zhu Nianqiao were not fully prepared.
Although they did not ask specific production questions, they would still ask Lin Yao about some ideas and settings.
"Lin Yao, the last pistol kill in "Titanfall" is too outrageous. Isn't this a hang by the official? Isn't this too exaggerated? Isn't it too unreasonable?"
Zhong Xiu looked at Lin Yao and asked curiously.
He was talking about the last level of "Titanfall 2". After BT was destroyed, Iron Pilot Cooper took out BT's wisdom core, and then took out the escape tool set, holding a gun in one hand and the wisdom core in the other hand, and aiming and killing all the way.
"Not really. The plot is designed to give players a feeling of bursting after being suppressed. Otherwise, BT's intelligence core would not be shown, nor would the protagonist hold it in his hand, and the protagonist would not have a single line."
Lin Yao thought of how she felt when she played this level in her previous life, and chuckled, "As for what you said about exaggeration... Actually, it's not exaggerated, it's quite reasonable. The only bug is the infinite ammunition, but I just said that this is for the plot. I should have written down the relevant settings of the smart pistol in the plan, the reciprocating charging handle, the frame-integrated ammunition counter, the multi-function laser aiming module, plus the bullets made with micro-missile guidance technology, and the BT core accelerated calculation, which realizes the game's automatic aiming function.
This is something that saves the life of the master-level Pilot. Although BT cannot be operated here, it has actually been fighting with its own Pilot in other forms."
"..."
Zhong Xiu was silent for a moment: "Why didn't you take it out earlier?"
Lin Yao glared at him: "You're kidding, do you want a big robot or a smart pistol?"
"Okay."
Zhong Xiu couldn't help laughing. He thought about it, and then said, "I understand. The main reason is that I'm not sure whether the official operation will work... But from a personal perspective, I think it's really fun to play."
"It doesn't matter if it's a stand-alone game. In fact, it doesn't matter if it's a battle, as long as you set reasonable preconditions."
Lin Yao explained, "For example, as long as you add a time limit or ammunition limit, and then extend the lock time, it can also be used as a weapon for players to fight.
Cheats are indeed disgusting, but adding this kind of extraordinary gameplay to the game mechanism can sometimes increase the gameplay."
"..."
Zhong Xiu heard this and fell into deep thought.
Lin Yao didn't continue to disturb him.
She was just providing an idea.
In ow.
No one said that Soldier 76's ultimate move was cheating. Many things are not immutable.
"I understand. Since we are talking about player battles, I have another question."
After a long time.
Zhong Xiu finally looked up and asked, "I took a look at the multiplayer mode in Titanfall. Is the damage of guns too high? I think a lot of the gameplay is similar to our Battle Royale. So why do you make the battle process so fast?"
This can obviously allow players to play more colorfully and coolly! "
"Well... you know a word, right? Time to kill."
Lin Yao thought for a while and explained: "It refers to the time it takes for a firearm to complete a kill. This is generally used to measure the performance of a weapon in terms of damage, which is determined by the weapon's single-shot damage, firing rate, and bullet speed.
It also refers to the time it takes to kill an enemy. Most FPS games on the market now have different ttk lengths. For example, our "Breakout" has a short ttk, while "Battle Royale" has a relatively long ttk.
I can understand your idea. You want to lengthen the ttk time of player-to-player battles in "Titanfall" to give players more room for control, but have you ever thought about it? Players have different skills..." "
In a high-mobility game like "Titanfall", double jumps, wall sliding, and all kinds of tricks... skilled players can fly over eaves and walls and run around everywhere."
"If the ttk is extended, the battle process will become a mutual scraping. It's cool, but it won't be fun. " "
And with a short ttk, ordinary players can still fool players with good skills, but with a long ttk, do you believe that players with good skills can fool other players like monkeys?"
This is not a joke.
"Apex" in Lin Yao's previous life was a game with a very long ttk. The addition of the armor mechanism made it different from "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" and became a representative of the emerging battle royale game.
But even though "Apex" was born out of "Titanfall", Rebirth did not add the settings of wall sliding and double jump to the game.
Because once added, it would be really too shameless.
Even if "APEX" does not have the functions given by the Iron Pilot combat suit, it has the mechanism of body movement, such as wall jumping and ts. For two players with similar shooting skills, the one who does not know how to move will not be able to beat the one who can jump up and down.
Not to mention the addition of wall sliding and double jump like "Titanfall".
These are all learning costs. It
is difficult for ordinary people to learn to wall jump.
If this continues to enhance mobility, what else can everyone play? Just do parkour directly.
"Have you played FPS games recently? You can go and try it. "
Lin Yao continued, "Most FPS users will have a significant drop in reaction speed when they reach a certain age. You can see it by playing a few games of our Battle Royale. We have only added sliding and skill mechanisms to make the game a little more maneuverable, which has already caused a split in the way high-level players and ordinary players play. If you
play now, you will be beaten by those talented young people... not to mention the addition of mechanisms like Titanfall.
You can't expect all players to be talented young people... Although players should not be taught to play games, they can't just pursue the cool games in their minds. They still have to start from reality. "
"..."
Zhong Xiu was stunned when he heard this, and then he pondered.
After a long time.
He breathed a sigh of relief and said apologetically: "I understand, it's true... Maybe I've been too busy recently. I feel that I'm a little out of touch with reality and I just pursue being handsome..."
Lin Yao smiled and said, "Do you want to give you a short vacation? Have a good rest and play the current game by the way?"
"Okay, I'll apply for annual leave at that time and play the game well. "
Zhong Xiu nodded seriously: "But there is no need for a long vacation. With my talent, as long as I invest time, I can catch up with the young people easily... You know, old ginger is still spicy!"
Lin Yao joked: "Then I will start a live broadcast for you, and let the marketing department promote you, so that everyone can see how spicy you are."
Zhong Xiu was silent for a moment: "...I'm kidding. "
Lin Yao shook her head in amusement.
...
After answering Zhong Xiu's question.
Lin Yao talked to him about other projects.
As the scale of Linmu Studio grows, the middle and senior management of the product department are indeed getting busier and busier.
The time they spend playing games has also begun to drop sharply.
There is nothing they can do about it.
They are not like Lin Yao, who has another life, and it is normal to make some seemingly low-level mistakes sometimes.
In this regard,
Lin Yao is not very worried.
Now this batch of middle and senior management of the product department, almost all of them have been with her, and Lin Yao is very familiar with them.
If she is not there, they may fall once or twice, but they will adjust quickly.
Just like Zhong Xiu.
It only takes two or three sentences for him to realize where the problem lies and adjust quickly.
As they grow older, although they are not as good as young people in playing games that require reaction,
this does not mean that their talent has disappeared.
They are all very good.
"Next is the development plan of Youmei Technology..."
Lin Yao pushed open the door of her office, thought for a while, and prepared to put on paper the ideas she had told Zhang Youjie backstage at the press conference.
This is also a job she needs to do personally.
Then there is the e-sports festival at the end of the year, the multi-platform login of mobile games, the release of new games, and the preparation for the last two projects...
There are really a lot of things to think about.
However, everything is moving in a good direction...
and this is actually quite exciting.
Lin Yao smiled, then woke up her computer, stopped thinking about it, and started typing.
Soon.
The sound of keyboard tapping was heard in the office.
During.
Mu Wanqing came in once, but did not disturb Lin Yao. She just poured her a glass of water and then continued to do her own thing.
When Mu Wanqing opened the door and walked in for the second time, it was already evening.
Lin Yao was still sitting in her seat. The setting sun shone on her through the French windows, enveloping her like a veil, dyeing her with a layer of orange-red light and shadow, making her look particularly soft and warm.
With a serious look.
There was really an illusion that she was glowing.
Mu Wanqing closed the door lightly and did not speak, but just looked at her quietly.
But Lin Yao suddenly raised her head, looked at Mu Wanqing, and smiled: "Why are you staring at me?"
Mu Wanqing looked at Lin Yao, whose pretty oval face suddenly smiled with her back to the setting sun. She was slightly startled, then reacted and smiled gently: "I'm afraid of disturbing your work."
Lin Yao said mischievously: "In fact, the work has been completed a long time ago. I was just looking at the erotic pictures just now..."
"..."
Mu Wanqing was a little speechless, and then hesitated for a moment, and still walked to Lin Yao's side, and then turned her head to look at her screen.
But.
The expected picture did not appear.
There was only one document opened on the computer screen.
"Hahaha."
Lin Yao patted Mu Wanqing's flat belly, and then said with a smile: "You really believe it."
Mu Wanqing was a little embarrassed, but still defended: "Because you have seen it before, and your phone is full of two-dimensional beautiful girls..."
"You said it before, don't you have you now? Why would I watch two-dimensional."
Lin Yao turned the chair to face Mu Wanqing and tilted her head.
A sudden straight ball.
Mu Wanqing's eyes were a little evasive, as if she couldn't resist it.
Lin Yao smiled, secretly sighed that Mu Wanqing was really cute, and was about to stop joking.
But Mu Wanqing's eyes dodged for a while, and suddenly stopped dodging.
She looked back at Lin Yao's delicate face stained with a layer of orange-red light and shadow, then smoothed her dress, suddenly knelt down in front of Lin Yao, and took off her glasses and put them on Lin Yao directly.
Lin Yao: "..."
She actually looks very suitable with glasses, which adds a bit of quiet temperament.
After all, she looks good.
As Mu Wanqing thought about it, she reached out and held Lin Yao's face, who was still a little unresponsive.
The orange sunset fell on their shoulders.
And beyond them.
Outside the French window.
Under the setting sun.
The crowds of people leaving work, the endless stream of passers-by, and the busy streets together formed a noisy city landscape, which formed a sharp contrast with the quiet and picturesque scenery inside the window.
