Universe Infinite Canteen.

Chapter 388 Waste of natural resources
Previously, Baldy and others had tried their best to distribute flyers on the roadside to attract people, even using intimidation and threats, and working intensively for 48 hours a day, but after working so hard for so long, they only distributed more than game discs.

Now, as soon as Malu made a move, in just a few minutes, more than half of the 200 game discs brought by Baldy were snatched away, which shocked him greatly.

Baldy then called Coconut Milk Jelly and asked her to bring another 300 game discs within minutes.

However, those who came later, because they had not witnessed the magic of the lotus leaf charcoal cake with their own eyes, and only heard about what happened in the afternoon from others, were not so crazy about the lotus leaf charcoal cake.

But even so, by the time the store closed at night, a total of four hours, the Chiling project team had given away more than 300 game CDs.

Tu Tuzi calculated with his fingers that in less than half a day, Malu had completed the equivalent of 9 months' work of the marketing department.

Now he could hardly maintain the fierce look on his face, and when he spoke, the corners of his mouth would involuntarily lift up, revealing a silly grin.

He decided to hire Malu as a special consultant to lead the future operations of Chiling, but he actually had no idea what he was doing.

It was only because he knew that neither he nor his men were talented in this area that he had to seek help from outside.

But Malu is not a professional game planner, he is just a restaurant owner, and Tutuzi is a little worried whether he can save Chiling.

However, the project team has hit rock bottom, and it can’t get any worse.

At that time, Tu Tuzi had the idea of ​​giving it a try, so he handed it over to Malu Yibo. He didn't expect that he really won the gamble.

Judging from the current speed of recruiting heads, although it cannot be compared with the Succubus Queen Corinna, it is much faster than when they were messing around on their own before.

And it should have surpassed the other brother project teams under Lord Isagan. Bald man felt excited. Doesn't that mean that not only can they complete the KPI this year, but they can also get the reward from Lord Isagan.

"Don't be happy too soon." Ma Lu on the side reminded that there were no customers in the store at this moment, and He Xiaoqian was cleaning up with Ma Youyou.

Malu took Tu Tuzi to the other side to continue to guide the project team's follow-up work. "Draining traffic is only the first step. How to keep people in the game for a long time is the top priority next."

"Aren't there cookie coupon fragments?" Baldy said, "I've asked someone to add them to the game, and the server-wide announcement has been sent out. The event will be online on time at 10 a.m. tomorrow."

Monsters in the abyss certainly won't drop pancake ticket fragments, but the interaction between players and the abyss is not direct, but through the game "Red Ridge" as a medium.

Without changing reality, programmers on the project team can add some virtual props to the game, as well as functions like mini-maps and backpacks, and even directly modify values.

Of course, this "modification" is only limited to the string of numbers that players can see and has no effect on the actual situation.

For example, today Mengmengda can change the player’s health from 1 point to 1000 points. It looks like it has indeed increased a thousand times, but in fact, the player will still die with just one touch.

This is also the reason why Mengmeng was so sad and angry today when Malu complained about the shitty numbers before.

Because apart from some mission materials or reward quantities that he wrote, he could not change the rest of the core values ​​such as combat difficulty and drop rate.

Even the values ​​of the tasks were not decided by him. For example, the outrageous task of picking up black mud in exchange for a backpack was actually decided directly by the producer Tu Tuzi based on the team's KPI and the production cost of the backpack.

Today, Meng Meng Da just filled in a number, but in the end she had to take the blame for her boss and get scolded by the players.

However, even if only the player interface can be modified, there is still a lot of room for operation. Millipede has also made many optimizations, such as coloring the bones according to their quality, the lowest white, then green, and above that there are purple and gold, and even orange.

In addition, he also introduced the combat power value system commonly seen in skin-changing online games. This thing is hated by many players, but in fact it is because it is deeply bound to the krypton gold system.

In fact, the combat power value system allows players to intuitively feel the growth of strength, just like the color of equipment, improving the positive feedback during the game...

However, these optimizations and changes are just details. Even the joint activities of lotus leaf carbon cakes cannot solve the core problem of Chiling.

——Players lack the motivation to continue playing.

Although Baldy and his companions pretended to build a game framework, they were actually just using it as a cover to recruit players to work illegally for them.

However, working illegally is not attractive in itself.

In comparison, the competitor of the Succubus Queen Corinna next door actually also starts with the same abyss, with the same skeleton role, and also has to face high-intensity wild monsters and rare task rewards.

But the players over there, because the big head is controlled by the small head, have a goal and can have a lot of fun playing.

Astringency has always been the oldest and most primitive driving force of human beings.

Of course, Corinna had the bonus of racial talent, and other abyss lords could not learn it even if they wanted to.

However, this does not mean that Chiling cannot provide players with a driving force to play.

In fact, as far as Malu knows, in addition to games like NIKKE that emphasize visual impact, there is another type of online games that is also very popular, even not inferior to the former.

In this kind of game, players don't care about the beauty or ugliness of NPCs or characters. And the online rate is very high, some people even play the game day and night, and the payment rate and stickiness of players are also higher than other types of games.

——This is SLG, or more accurately, a war SLG game!

In addition to being a bit shy, conquering is also human nature, especially men's nature.

However, due to the current world structure and legal and regulatory restrictions, it is almost impossible to expand territory and establish oneself as a king.

Players can only find this kind of fun in the game, and the abyss can provide players with such a stage.

Therefore, Malu felt that Tu Tuzi and others had gone in the wrong direction from the beginning. Instead of making a role-playing game, it would be better to make it an SLG.

No player wants to be a minotaur's subordinate, but no man can refuse to expand territory under the banner of Minotaur.

If there is a shortage of construction materials, go and rob them! If there are too many wild monsters nearby, let the player army clear them out! If there is a shortage of labor in the town, go and capture slaves from the surrounding areas.

In Malu's opinion, using players as the lowest-level goblin laborers is actually a waste of resources and a complete disgrace.
