Wednesday, November 30th.

All the employees are busy.

Wang Xiaobin took a sip of coffee, and then posted a message on the company's internal chat software: "A few new DLCs will be tested more, and they will be launched soon, and finally see if there are any bugs!" ”

Wang Xiaobin is mainly responsible for taking half of the staff of Yuyang Games to develop DLC for some old games, including "Lonely Desert Highway", "Game Producer", "Back to the Shore" and "Sea Fortress".

Among them, "Turning Back to the Shore" and "Sea Fortress" have changed a lot, and the DLC has too much content to do, so it cannot be completed in a short period of time, and it will be delayed until the end of this month and the beginning of next month, respectively.

However, the DLC of "Lonely Desert Road" and "Game Producer" is relatively easy to do, and the development work has been completed, and it will be officially updated when the bug is tested.

Although the current bugs have been almost changed, Wang Xiaobin does not dare to take it lightly, and still asks everyone to play more games and test more, for fear that they will encounter various hidden problems after the game is released.

This is actually because of a more metaphysical problem.

After the new game or new version of the DEMO of the previous game was made, I went to Mr. Pei to see it, and I measured it well before I went, but there will be various incomprehensible mystery bugs in Mr. Pei's hands.

So much so that Wang Xiaobin wondered if Mr. Pei had any special means to find bugs, or Mr. Pei himself was a bug.

Therefore, every time the game updates the version and develops DLC, the test is kept improving, and it is repeated many times before daring to go online, for fear of missing some fatal bugs.

The DLC updated for the two games "Lonely Desert Highway" and "Game Producer" this time are priced at 5 yuan and 18 yuan respectively.

For "Lonely Desert Highway", the ontology sells for 1 dollar, and the first DLC also sells for 1 dollar, and it is now free.

This new DLC is priced at 5 yuan, which was set by Wang Xiaobin himself, which is a historic breakthrough.

Because the content of this "Lonely Desert Highway" DLC update is much richer than the base game.

On Wang Xiaobin's computer, the DLC update announcements for the two games have been written.

Lonely Desert Highway DLC Update Announcement:

1. Added networking mode, which supports: invite friends to play together (up to 8 people), randomly match players to play together (from the starting point, up to 8 players), and random encounters (randomly meet other players in the process).

Text or voice chat can be used in the network mode, and various details can be adjusted in the settings screen.

If the vehicle breaks down on the road, the player can continue the journey as a passenger in another vehicle on the side of the road, and after an hour of riding, they can continue driving at their current location.

2. Added the random scene function, driving in the desert for a long time may see a mirage, and see various scenery around the world, including pyramids and other ruins in the desert.

When checking in at various attractions, there is a chance to trigger the easter egg "Traveler Bao Xu": a lonely traveler in the desert asks for a ride, and when he arrives at his destination, he will get a new vehicle appearance and a new scene.

Game Maker DLC Update Announcement:

1. Added a new game function: message board. Players can leave messages on the ground, doorway, walls, etc., and the messages will be generated using a fixed vocabulary combination to enhance the player's interactive experience.

2. New gameplay: Gong Jing mode. The player will be given a bar raiser to allow the narrator to choose a route, and the player can taunt the narrator by using the bar raiser.

3. New gameplay: New Player Care Mode. Veteran players who have cleared the game can enter the game of new players who have not cleared the game through the random matching system, and guide the new players to make choices by freely entering text chat.

The art materials for both games haven't changed much, except for the addition of some more interesting online gameplay.

Moreover, Wang Xiaobin deliberately buried easter eggs about the DLC of "Sea Fortress" and the new game "Mission and Choice" in both games for early publicity and warm-up.

In fact, at the beginning, Wang Xiaobin didn't have much idea what to do with the DLC of these games, and just wanted to do some regular gameplay as much as possible to complete the task.

But Huang Sibo found him and said that he should cooperate with "Mission and Choice" and add a pre-plot of "Mission and Choice" to the DLC of "Sea Fortress" to promote the warm-up.

When Wang Xiaobin heard this, of course he readily agreed.

He didn't have a clue, but Huang Sibo directly sent the ready-made game plot content to the door, so why not do it?

After planning the DLC content of "Sea Fortress", Wang Xiaobin thought about it, and since this is the case, he will put the DLC of all the old games on the new game.

It not only updates the content of the game, finds something for old players to do, but also plays a role in promoting and warming up, and can increase the pre-sale sales of "Sea Fortress" DLC and "Mission and Choice", why not?

Hence the updates to Lonely Desert Highway and The Game Producer.

Wang Xiaobin checked it out, and then arranged to send an update announcement on a regular basis.

Thursday, December 1.

Since moving to Jingzhou in mid-October, Qiao Liang has been living in Jingzhou for a month and a half.

In the past month and a half, he has fully adapted to life in Jingzhou, and his daily life has also undergone some changes.

First of all, the work and rest time has become regular, the eating is also healthy, and the original dark circles and fat have improved a lot.

Touching Fish Takeaway recently launched a "monthly package", which is specifically for takeaway parties like Qiao Liang, as well as office workers.

To buy this "monthly package", the first thing is to choose the time to eat takeout in advance, for example, office workers can choose noon from Monday to Friday depending on the situation, and those who work overtime can choose noon and evening from Monday to Saturday; The second is to choose the flavors and dishes that you can accept in advance.

After purchasing the package, you can deposit the money into your personal account and choose to automatically deduct the fee, up to one credit. If a meal is already owed on credit, the customer needs to pay the previous payment within 2 hours before the next meal is delivered, otherwise the order will be cancelled.

When it's time to deliver the food, Touch Fish Takeaway will automatically deduct the fee and deliver the food, and arrange the dishes according to the customer's pre-selected flavors and recent meal records to ensure diverse tastes and balanced nutrition.

If there is a temporary event that does not need to be delivered, the customer only needs to set it up in advance on the "Delivery Calendar" interface of the APP to cancel it.

This monthly package is simply a blessing for otaku like Qiao Liang and some office workers.

Because ordering takeout is a pleasure in a few cases, but in most cases it is a torture.

Qiao Liang often has this experience, sometimes he forgets to order takeout when he is busy, but when he is busy, he looks up and sees that it is already 1 o'clock in the afternoon; Sometimes at 11 o'clock, I picked up my mobile phone to order takeout, and I didn't find anything I particularly wanted to eat in more than a dozen stores, so I wasted fifteen minutes just to order a takeout, and I didn't find anything particularly satisfying; Sometimes I accidentally ordered takeout during peak hours, but because the delivery man burst the order, it took more than an hour to be delivered, and the meal was cold.

At present, the domestic food delivery industry is still in a savage growth period, so there are often some unpleasant dining experiences.

For those who have been eating takeaway for a long time, on the one hand, they don't have to worry about what to eat every day, and the randomly delivered meals give them a feeling of "someone is in charge of the meal", and on the other hand, it can also ensure the delivery time and experience.

Because this "monthly package" is like another form of advance reservation, because the store has estimated the number of orders in advance, which can ensure the cooking and delivery time of most of the meals, so the taste and dining experience will also be improved.

Qiao Liang's "monthly package" is lunch and dinner from Monday to Friday.

At present, his life is to get up every morning and go down for a walk, go to a nearby steamed bun shop for breakfast, walk around, and when he comes back, he will cut videos or play games, and wait for lunch and games to be delivered to the door on the hour.

On Saturdays and Sundays, sometimes I go out to play with fans or friends, and sometimes I order some other takeouts at home, such as fried chicken, milk tea, roast duck, etc., to improve the taste.

At noon today, Qiao Liang was still as usual, eating fish takeout while reading the latest news.

There have been a lot of things that have happened in the past month or so, and the thing that Qiao Liang is most concerned about is obviously the GPL league that will be held in Beijing.

He also went to the familiar place of Mingyun Villa to get to know the doors of various e-sports clubs, and broadcast it live to fans by the way.

Recently, various live broadcast platforms have risen one after another, and more and more money has been thrown, and Qiao Liang, as an UP master with his own fans, will naturally not miss this outlet.

It's just that there is still a big difference between being an UP master and being an anchor, and most of the audience of Qiao Liang's live broadcast is his own die-hard fans, and it is not very popular.

However, for Qiao Liang, he can also live broadcast to earn some gift money in addition to the video, which is already a very beautiful life.

"Huh? What is it? ”

"Update announcements for Lonely Desert Highway and The Game Producer?"

"These two games are still being updated???"

Qiao Liang saw that his fan group was discussing, and at first thought that everyone was joking.

Isn't it, how old is this game, and it's still being updated?

Wouldn't it be nice to let them go into the ground with peace of mind?

Qiao Liang couldn't help but sigh that among so many domestic and foreign game companies he had seen, Tengda was definitely the most maverick.

Obviously there is a dominant online game like GOG on hand, and the new game is still in development, so these development efforts must be a much higher priority than updating the old game, right?

As a result, Mr. Pei insisted on taking out manpower to maintain these old games, which have almost no popularity and are not played by many people, which is outrageous!

Do you really not abandon or give up?
