Chloe logged into her Facebook account out of curiosity, picked up a few bottles under Anna's guidance, and quickly felt the fun of the drift bottle function.
The randomness of drifting bottles is a bit stronger than the randomness of finding friends, and you can often catch bottles floating from other countries. The only bad thing is that it seems that because you have just started, there are relatively few bottles.
Roy used up twenty opportunities to catch bottles, but only caught eight bottles. The others were either crabs, broken shoes, rotten ship planks and the like.
Moreover, many of these eight bottles have no content, just "hahahaha", "hello" and the like.
In fact, what Chloe and Anna didn't know was that if Facebook hadn't released a lot of bottles in advance, they would have been able to catch even fewer bottles today.
When the function is first opened, there will definitely be very few bottles caught. After all, when most people start playing this thing, they choose to catch the bottles first instead of throwing them first.
Both Anna and Chloe are like this, and both of them have used up twenty opportunities to catch the bottle, but only used a few opportunities to throw the bottle, which is completely unequal.
When this function was not yet open, Tengxun conducted internal tests. The ratio of throwing bottles to fishing bottles was at least one to one, so that everyone would not be empty every time they fished for bottles, because those who choose to throw bottles back into the sea
Not much.
In order to prevent many people from being unable to catch the bottles when the drift bottle function was first opened, employees within Tengxun spent nearly half a month throwing at least 30,000 bottles into the sea. Anna picked up the first bottle.
A bottle was actually a bottle thrown out during the internal beta, so after she replied, she did not receive a reply from the other party.
Of course, 30,000 bottles may seem like a lot, but they can’t hold it for too long. In just one or two hours, all the 30,000 bottles thrown out by the insiders were scooped up. What follows is
It depends on the users themselves.
In order to encourage users to throw bottles, Tengxun has made many medals for the drifting bottle function, as well as a level promotion system. Users can get corresponding points by throwing bottles, fishing for bottles, replying to bottles, and if the thrown bottles are replied by others.
After the user levels up, he can obtain corresponding permissions, such as "directional bottles". When he reaches a certain level, he can choose to set the bottles he throws as directional bottles.
There are several types of directional bottles. For example, you can set the bottle to be thrown into a designated city, so that only people in this city can catch the bottle, or you can specify a gender, so only men or women can catch the bottle.
When setting the points, Tengxun deliberately set the points for throwing bottles and the recovery points for throwing bottles higher, so that users can be more motivated to throw bottles.
It’s just that the drift bottle has just been opened today, so many users have not paid attention to these things yet. I believe that as time goes by, more people will discover this.
Of course, when the user finds that they have used up the number of times to catch the bottle, they will also start to try to throw the bottle. For example, Chloe started throwing the bottle when she found that she had no chance to catch the bottle.
The bottle she threw was no different from Anna's. The first bottle was to introduce herself, and then said that she liked reading, watching TV, and playing games.
In this situation of bottle shortage, the bottles she threw were quickly picked up and returned, within five minutes.
[I like basketball and playing games. Have you paid attention to Blizzard’s new game "Warcraft 3"? 】
This is a male netizen from Los Angeles, USA. Judging from his profile picture, he should be a super handsome guy.
Chloe said she likes to play games, but she usually plays games like "Lianliankan", "Tetris", and "Zombies". The more difficult ones are "Escape" and "Plants vs. Zombies"
, and it doesn’t pay attention to which game manufacturer the game is produced by.
Blizzard, Warcraft... she felt a little familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere, but that was all, she didn't know much about Blizzard's games.
But she didn't want to miss this handsome guy, so she turned to Anna for help, "Anna, do you know the game "Warcraft 3"?"
Anna tilted her head and thought for a while, then said, "Warcraft? My ex-boyfriend seems to have played this game. It came out a long time ago."
"It seems that "Warcraft 3" will be released tomorrow."
Anna shrugged her shoulders and expressed no concern. As for games, she still likes games like "Friend's Farm". In her eyes, weird and killing games like "Warcraft" should be for boys.
exclusive.
Unable to get an answer from Anna, Chloe ran to Google to search, and soon entered a post on Deep Space Tribe, which introduced the game in detail, and also had a lot of news about the release of new versions.
.
After obtaining this information, Chloe chatted happily with the other party.
The two chatted until the evening, when Krui suddenly ran to Anna who was cooking and said, "After "Warcraft 3" is launched tomorrow, let's buy one and play it."
Anna tilted her head and looked at Chloe, "Are you sure you want to play? This is "Warcraft 3". Do you need to have played 1 and 2 before you can play it?"
"No, Randall said you don't need to play the previous part, you can play directly, he will teach me." Chloe said with a smile.
Anna smiled and said, "Do you want to date a boy from Los Angeles now?"
"I just wanted to play games with him." Chloe defended herself.
"You have to know that there is a nine-hour time difference between Los Angeles and Paris. It's still morning there at this time."
Chloe shrugged, "That's what makes it interesting."
…
"Warcraft 3" is released simultaneously in 25 countries around the world, including China.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Chloe and Anna bought the game the next day, but it took another half a day to install the game and register.
When downloading the Battle.net client, Anna couldn't help but complain, "I never thought that playing a game would be so troublesome."
"All fun games are like this." Chloe tried to calm Anna's emotions.
After all the preparations were done, Anna asked, "What should we do now?"
"Randall recommended a yapper to me and said he would post game videos today. I'll go take a look."
Based on Randall's push, Chloe found a yapper named "MTY Ma Tianyuan" on the Yawei Yawei website, and clicked on this person's homepage. The latest video was related to "Warcraft 3".
There are two videos about "Warcraft 3", which are divided into basic videos and practical advanced videos. Chloe chose the basic video based on her own situation.
What Chloe didn't expect was that the yapper actually spoke Chinese... Actually, Chloe wasn't sure if it was Chinese. She just heard it sounded like it, but the video had English subtitles.
Fortunately, Chloe's English is pretty good, otherwise she wouldn't be able to watch this video.
In fact, quite a lot of French people are learning Chinese now, and Chinese literature is particularly famous in France. Even in French bookstores, there are almost no books by French authors as many as there are books by Chinese authors.
Anna only knows a little Chinese. She took East Asian Literature in school to understand the culture of China, neon and other East Asian countries. In addition, Chinese culture has become more popular in all aspects in the past two years, so she knows more about Chinese culture.
.
The basic chapter is indeed a basic chapter. Ma Tianyuan completely treats the people watching the video as novices who have never been exposed to the game "Warcraft". He directly introduces the background of the game first, and then the gameplay.
After Chloe read the basic chapter, she got herself an ID according to the video's explanation, and tried to start a human-machine battle.
She carefully chose the simplest human-machine, but soon discovered that even a simple human-machine was not simple at all for her.
As a last resort, she started watching Ma Tianyuan's "Practical Combat" video again, and then she had a better understanding of the game. Later, when she faced the human and machine again, although she still couldn't win, she was not as embarrassed as she was at the beginning.
.
Anna watched from the side as Chloe studied the game strategy seriously, and couldn't help but shook her head. If Chloe, a girl, could put even 100% of her perseverance in picking up men into studying, then she would
His studies will definitely be among the best.
She watched the video again. Ma Tianyuan was explaining how the human race should start, and she could understand some Chinese.
What surprised her was that this game had just come out, and this yapper had already made two videos.
In fact, if she knew Ma Tianyuan, she wouldn't be surprised.
Ma Tianyuan, a player who has won two consecutive WCG StarCraft single-player championships, is known as the most evil person in the e-sports world. He is now in a semi-retired state. He serves as a candidate player for the club's StarCraft project and as an assistant for the project.
coach.
In addition to his work in the club, he basically spends the rest of his time on the Internet, making some video strategies for netizens.
Before Duck Web started, Ma Tianyuan had been doing strategy editing work with text and pictures, mainly on Deep Space Tribe. His main games were "StarCraft" and "Warcraft", and he also gained a lot of success.
Player fans.
After Yawei Yawei was fully launched this time, he was also one of the first batch of celebrities to join. After coming to the new website, he got better at it. The video guide was obviously more popular than the text and picture guide.
Ma Tianyuan had already played "Warcraft 3" before it was officially launched, so he was able to come up with the guide so quickly.
For Blizzard, having star players like Ma Tianyuan play their new game will definitely play a good publicity role.
Ma Tianyuan is worthy of being a master of the game. He grasped the essence of the new version after only playing for a week. Therefore, when making the strategy video, he focused on the use of heroes by each race to distinguish the new version from the previous one.
Version.
Players can feel the charm of the new version without even playing it themselves.
Compared with the old version, the new version should firstly improve a lot in terms of picture quality and action, which is refreshing. Secondly, the hero's abilities should be more prominent, making the gameplay of this game richer.
Many players who previously felt that the new version was just a new version have begun to pay attention to "Warcraft 3". Some players who only played "StarCraft" before suddenly felt this after getting started with "Warcraft 3".
The difference between this game and previous "StarCraft" and its unique charm.
Nowadays, more and more people are making game videos on Yawei Yawei website. At first, everyone followed Ma Tianyuan’s example and made strategy videos. Later, some people found that strategy videos are difficult to make and require special skills.
The technical level is high, so I changed the gameplay.
Some people started to make funny videos, specifically cutting some funny clips from game videos, some people did dubbing, and some people did some challenge activities.
But most of them who do well are people from Deep Space Entertainment.
Deep Space Entertainment has a special department with a long name, but everyone calls it the "Internet Celebrity" Department. This department is made up of Internet celebrities, some of whom are in the Deep Space Tribe, and some of whom are in the Duck Web.
Why do people promoted by Deep Space Entertainment achieve better results? Is it because Deep Space Entertainment and Duckweed belong to the same parent company? Actually, no, Duckweed does not give these people any special treatment.
In fact, it is not easy to become a yapper now. Today, it is no different than twenty years later. You can easily shoot videos with a mobile phone, and even buying some other professional equipment does not cost much.
But now if you want to buy a decent camera equipment, the price is not cheap, and it also requires some skills to use it, so it cannot be used as soon as you buy it.
After that, getting the video into the computer and then transferring it to the duck web was also a hurdle.
Even if this hurdle is passed, what happens to the video editing?
Just like Ma Tianyuan's video, although he speaks in Chinese, it does not affect his ability to gain a large number of viewers in Europe and the United States because the video has both Chinese and English subtitles.
Just doing subtitles can block 90.9% of people.
In Ma Tianyuan's videos, he often appears at the same time as actual combat scenes. This is of course simple for professionals, but it is too difficult for ordinary people.
Deep Space Entertainment has a specialized department to help these people do these things, and it also has a specialized planning department to help these people plan programs.
For example, a yapper on Yawei Yawei who has become quite popular recently specializes in street interviews. All his interview scripts are designed for him by the planning team of Deep Space Entertainment. He only needs to do his own thing according to the planning.
, when the video is shot, the post-production department will help him edit it.
