Chapter 1368 New Champion Skin (Plus a Monthly Ticket!)
As soon as these words were asked, the scene fell into silence again.
Although this sounds quite unpleasant, everyone also knows that such extreme situations may really happen.
And it will most likely happen in the near future.
Originally, there were not many people in the ioi national server. After this last toss, the number of people continued to plummet. Can they still support an entire server?
The loss of a large number of players will further aggravate the collapse of the matching mechanism and the ranking mechanism. It is difficult for players to match with similar strengths, and the game experience will get worse and worse. Naturally, the loss will continue to cause a chain reaction.
And once the number of players decreases, the number of spectators will naturally decrease.
As the popularity decreases, the commercial value of the entire league will also decrease.
At that time, the major capitals will no longer be optimistic about the ICL league, and the clubs will no longer be able to see benefits from the teams in the ioi division. Can the entire ICL league continue?
A senior executive of the finger company said: "If this happens, the only way to transfer players' data is to merge the server with the newly opened Southeast Asia server or the Korean server to become the Asian server; cancel the ICL league, and Teams from the ICL league are merged with other nearby divisions to maintain the commercial value of the league."
Another executive frowned and said: "But this is equivalent to shutting down the server, which will cause further loss of players. After all, most people do not want to play with players who do not speak their native language, nor do they want to bother with data migration."
Chretien sighed: "This is something that can't be helped. We have already failed miserably in the Greater China market. No matter what we do now, it is nothing more than choosing a relatively decent ending."
Jin Yong really understands this situation.
This is like many games. Players in the server will naturally lose in the later stage. Whether the server is merged or not, it is a wrong choice.
If the server does not fit, many players will say that the entire server ecosystem has become rigid, there is no competition, it is boring to play, and they want to abandon the pit more and more;
Combining servers will arouse the resentment of players who just want to live and farm. They were originally ranked high in the old server, but they were bullied again in the new server. They feel that they have become weak again, and they may immediately churn.
Moreover, when the server was merged, it was vigorous, and it could indeed stimulate for a period of time after the merge, but it would soon enter a rigid state again due to the loss of players.
As a result, players will continue to clamor for server merging, which will lead to the loss of another batch of players and fall into a vicious circle.
That is to say, once the service is combined, it can't be stopped at all. In fact, it can only be regarded as drinking poison to quench thirst.
Now the situation of the ioi national server is similar. No matter what you do, players will be lost, and changing the way to deal with it is nothing more than changing the method of loss.
But if it really gets to that point, it won't work if you don't fit the server, because the most basic game experience for players may not be guaranteed.
Chretien looked at Jin Yong: "You haven't commented since just now, what do you think should be done?"
Jin Yong could not help shrinking his neck.
Don't ask me, how could I know!
In this situation now, unless President Pei comes in person, most of the gods are hard to save!
But everyone looked over, and Jin Yong couldn't hold back any longer, so he could only bite the bullet and answer: "I think FV's new champion skin can be made faster and better..."
He didn't dare to discuss such a major matter of serving together, and he didn't have the right to express his opinion here.
In the end, whether the server is compatible or not, most of them have to consult with the senior management of the company and report to the senior management of Dayak Group before the final decision can be made.
So Jin Yong can only talk about such insignificant things.
Anyway, I also spoke at the meeting, please give me a little less of the pot, thank you.
However, Chretien's eyes lit up and praised: "Huh? This is also a very important point, we ignored it before!"
"The championship skin of the FV team this time should really be new, and it must be significantly different from last year's. Anyway, this will definitely be useful for retaining players and retaining the fans of the FV team. A relatively easy, low-risk measure.”
All the people present nodded and had no opinion on this.
Doing skins can finally make a wave of money from the ioi national service, and the top management of Dayak Group will definitely support it with both hands.
When the time comes, I will make the skin look good. It is easy to talk and sound, and it also shows that the finger company respects and attaches great importance to this championship that the FV team has worked so hard to win.
Chretien said to Jin Yong: "As for the championship skin, you can communicate with the FV team and meet all their requirements as much as possible."
If it is to directly let the skin designer of the finger company to communicate, after all, there are still some language and cultural barriers, so Chretien wants Jin Yonglai to be the middleman to promote the production of champion skins as much as possible. Guaranteed to satisfy the players of the FV team.
Jin Yong nodded: "Okay, after I go back, I will immediately prepare to start promoting this matter!"
...
At the same time, the members of the FV team were visiting the largest local mall, enjoying the victory.
The owner of the FV team, Wu Yue, and the captain, Pan Ying, were a little tired from shopping, so they found a cafe to sit down and rest for a while.
"Have you seen the topic on the Internet? What do you think?" Wu Yue asked.
Although the game was rough, the players were still very excited after the game. They all swiped with their mobile phones for a long time, and they must have seen the hot topics.
Pan Ying thought for a while: "Is it about switching to GOG? I think everyone's original intention is good, but it's still a bit too idealistic."
"The five of us have been playing ioi all the time. Switching to GOG has to start from scratch. We are already at this age. I'm afraid that we can't even play in the first division. It's better to just retire."
"Besides, the FV team has won two ioi world championships no matter what. It's a bit of a joke to transfer to GOG, isn't it?"
"President Pei's original intention to buy the FV team was to let us break into ioi. If we switch to GOG, will President Pei agree?"
Wu Yue said: "I called and asked Mr. Pei, and Mr. Pei said that he would respect the decisions of the players. It doesn't matter to Mr. Pei whether the FV team continues to stay on the ioi side."
"President Pei is very open-minded in this regard, you can rest assured."
Pan Ying still shook his head: "This matter should be discussed in the long run. Although the finger company is not a person, we still have a little affection for the game ioi, and we can't make up our minds for the time being."
Wu Yue nodded: "Well, this matter is not in a hurry, it can be discussed in the long run."
"By the way, have you thought about the theme for this year's champion skin?"
Pan Ying shook her head: "I didn't think so."
"The heroes I have used are all heroes I don't like, and they basically look weird. There really isn't much to choose from."
The strong heroes in this version are the unique heroes of some teams in Europe and the United States. As we all know, the games made by European and American companies will have some strange characters, but players in Europe and the United States like them very much.
Therefore, the FV team won the championship this time and practiced for a long time. They have been practicing since the group stage, and they have never picked their favorite heroes.
Because they never thought that they would definitely win the championship, they didn't dare to slack off in every game, so the heroes they could choose basically didn't like it very much.
It's natural to have no interest in making champion skins for heroes you don't like.
Wu Yue thought for a while: "Hey, I suddenly thought of a way."
"Can you make the champion skins of these heroes into your favorite heroes?"
Pan Ying was stunned for a moment: "Ah? Matryoshka? Is this possible?"
Wu Yue said: "Tell the officials, it's their business whether they agree or not. Besides, this is completely within the rules, so why can't you do it?"
Pan Ying didn't expect that there would be such a way, and he didn't remember it for a while.
Wu Yue's meaning is to say that these heroes who don't like can be made into their natural heroes, so that they will look more pleasing to the eye?
As for what it will look like, it is up to the skin designer of Zhitou Company, and you must trust the professionalism of Zhitou Company.
After thinking about it, Pan Ying said: "It seems... that is also a way. Then I will go back and talk to the other team members. If they agree, you can try this."
"For example, adding some hero elements that we like to the skins of these heroes, such as weapons, styles, characteristics, etc., should also be quite interesting."
Pan Ying thought for a while, and suddenly felt that this approach was quite interesting. After thinking about the picture, it should be more interesting, so she also agreed with this plan.
...
At the same time, it was already night in the country.
Pei Qian opened the TV side of the Elli Island website on the TV, and while waiting for "The Successor" to start airing, he flipped through the discussion about "The Successor" on his mobile phone.
The good news is that although the World Championship between GOG and ioi has ended, everyone's enthusiasm for discussion is still very high, and it will still occupy the heat of the entire network for a while.
Including the Elli Island website, there are also a large number of UP masters doing video analysis and summarizing the world competition. Whether it is professional analysis or jokes, it is basically a state of celebration, under many slightly related video games in the game area. , you can also see the comments on the relevant content of the GOG World Championship.
For Pei Qian, this is a blessing in disguise. After all, the higher the popularity there, the less popularity "Successor" can get, which plays a good role in sharing.
As for everyone's discussion of "The Successor," there's nothing new, apparently everyone is waiting for the premiere on Ellis Island.
There are still many posts that do not know the truth, and I am looking forward to this.
Pei Qian smiled slightly, everyone continue to look forward to it, anyway, after these three episodes are broadcast, the audience who should run will almost run out.
