Video Game Designer - Chapter 546
With the two messages posted by Chu He on Weibo and Twitter, in addition to a small number of players who were instantly excited, they posted posts in post bars and game forums to express their excitement.
The vast majority of players who have been playing Tianhe online games in the early days have already seen through.
In the face of these excited players’ posts, Uniform has released emoticons below.
‘Okay, okay, I know.jpg’
From the beginning, Chu He disclosed a little news on Weibo and Twitter, and then they were not excited, and now they are getting used to it.
What, President Chu sent Weibo again?
Okay, I know, just everyday.
In the three-day Weibo Twitter pictures, everyone has already seen the routine of Chuhe. Unless the game’s release date is really determined, otherwise it is a big cake.
In countless players who don’t know Tianhe Network very well, who passed through the wilderness, the last survivor, or who entered the pit recently at dawn, they shouted and spread excitedly on the social platform, and the old players who are very familiar with Tianhe Network, It is here to watch unmoved.
The news is almost ready? Ah!
I would rather believe that there are ghosts in this world than the broken mouth of the game producer.
Kojima pigeons tell you that death stranding is done and pre-sales will soon be available; Cyberpunk 2077, a Polish stupid donkey; an interstellar citizen with a crowdfunding of more than $200 million; Microsoft’s previously announced halo is infinite.
What now?
Didn’t you see the shadow?
The words of Tianhe Network are also a common offense. For example, when he first participated in E3, he publicly spent a huge pie in the wilderness.
According to the investigation of the game media later, Tianhe Network blew up. When it participated in the E3 show, it only released the Chinese and English titles of a wilderness dartman, without any original painting information.
It’s not that Tianhe Network wanted to play mystery, but everyone except Chuhe didn’t know about this project at that time, because that project was decided at the time of E3.
Don’t say I’ll give you an original painting and a trailer. Didn’t even create a folder?
Of course, the fragrant drawing of this cake is another matter.

“Does the timing of game release need to be staggered? The two games are almost the same type of game, which will spread a lot of sales.”
In the internal meeting of Tianhe Network, the marketing department and Chuhe conducted feedback discussions on the sale of the two games.
The two very similar games only have some changes in details, background and plot. If they are released at the same time, it will definitely affect sales.
“Sell at the same time, but buy on the TEU platform, buy one get one free, in addition, I will discuss with Ubisoft and EA about the follow-up things.” Chu He thought about it and said.
Hearing Chu He’s words, the people in the marketing department couldn’t help being surprised and wanted to say something, but they didn’t speak after thinking about it.
Although it is the same type of game, the excellent game quality, coupled with Tianhe Network’s fame, the global sales of millions are definitely not a big problem. Such a huge number is used to promote the TEU platform. Is this a bit too ruthless!
After all, TEU is not unique to Tianhe.
“Regarding the war series, there is a follow-up QD that has become a human and black light in the outer world, and the profits generated by the platinum star **** chain, TEU will only extract 5% of the profits.”
After more than two hours of discussion, Chuhe finally reached an intention with Ubisoft, EA and TEU.
The two songs about the War series are sold on the TEU platform and cost $69.9. To log in to the TEU platform, you only need to buy one of the games, and the other game will be given away for free.
At the same time, EA and Ubisoft also said that their follow-up actions. Ubisoft is still getting rid of Vivendi as before, and today, they need more profitable IP to consolidate their current situation.
As for EA, they want to make their word of mouth a little better, focusing on the strategic layout of the brand, such as the IP of the previously failed Star Wars series.
They will also develop an IP about Star Wars, but this time they decided not to join the multiplayer mode and follow the in-app purchase system to return the game to the most essential buyout.
For this practice of EA, Chuhe can only express good luck.
It’s not that Chuhe doesn’t believe in EA. It’s really EA’s game strategy plan. It’s already deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. American penguins are not worthy of fame.

The final test of the game, including the MOD tool specially developed and provided, the game is almost at the end.
Including the propaganda film mentioned with Rooney before, it has also been completed, as long as the time of the press conference is determined, it can be promoted and launched immediately.
At the same time, the sales plan has been determined internally, and the game has been rated in various countries. Some overseas and domestic factories have already placed orders. As long as the final test is over, the game can be started immediately for pressure plate Too.
Although some of the gameplay mainly focuses on the MOD gameplay, the game has developed a console platform. After all, the console market is still the largest game market.
There are also many gamers who will only use the game console to play instead of playing on the PC platform. Whether this part of the players is profitable or not ignoring them, the console version of the game will also be launched.
However, compared with the PC platform, the main core MOD can not be experienced, and Chu He will also declare this at a later conference.
In fact, compared with the host platform, Chuhe hopes that players can all come to buy on the PC platform.
Because the money of the mainframe platform is really very small.
For a $59.9 game ~www.mtlnovel.com~ deducts the game’s production cost, distributors, distributors’ agency costs, Microsoft and Sony’s platform 30% bonus, tax in each country.
When selling a game for $59.9, Tianhe Network only got about $8, and that $8 is not a net profit. You have to deduct labor costs and development costs.
The digital platform is much simpler, that is, to pay the platform, and pay taxes.
To put it badly, there is no middleman to make the difference.
This is also the main reason why the early steam platform can rise, no competitors do not need pressure plate cost.
But the industry will change, just like years ago when lobsters and crabs were not eaten by people, and even the poor people could only eat crabs to fill their stomachs in order not to starve to death.
Today, the steam platform is completely different from the previous environment. 30% of them are facing Microsoft, Sony, which has also begun to deploy digital platforms, and the subsequent rise of EPIC and TEU. The advantages of steam are really not much.
