Zhuyouxing hates the anti-piracy attitude of game manufacturers.
Anti-piracy is normal, and Youxing Electronic Entertainment is also doing this.
And ever since the encryption program company’s secret work was revealed, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment’s Stanford Army has not been idle either.
They turned around and participated in the technical development of 2077 again, and they also did another thing.
That is, things like encryption programs greatly affect player experience.
But game companies still have demands for this thing.
So in order to avoid the emergence of this kind of encryption program that will affect player experience in the future, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment can simply launch a similar product.
And this kind of software is not difficult for the Stanford Legion to research.
Nowadays, the largest video game sales platform on PC is Battle.net, so directly use the Battle.net platform software as the basis to create a deeply bound backend.
This background will not take up players' performance during game play, and will only randomly perform program verification.
This program verification will cross-verify the game the player is playing and the user information between the Battle.net platform.
This verification is basically just an instant thing.
If they do not match each other, you can make some reminder actions.
However, this behavior can only have a certain effect, but it is still impossible to absolutely prohibit the occurrence of piracy.
Zhu Youxing knew well that it was better to open up than to block, so he did not let the team conduct too much research on this kind of thing.
Since some players want to experience pirated games, it is because genuine games have caused some obstacles to them.
The obstacle is money.
Many people will be deterred from playing games by the high price of the game.
Then just give it a deeper discount, or even... just give it away for free.
Originally, Zhuyouxing planned to use free games as a way to compete with PC game platform competitors that might appear in the future.
But in the past ten years, none of his competitors have been able to beat him, which makes him feel a little lonely at the top.
Then just come up with this method in advance.
Just like EPIC in the original world.
The best gaming platform, plus occasional free games and discounts every time.
It is a multi-pronged approach. When a pirated game player cannot help but be tempted to download the Battle.net platform and receive a genuine free game, and then taste the extremely high experience of the Battle.net platform itself through the genuine free game, it will be very difficult for them.
Going back to when I downloaded pirated games, it wasn’t a particularly good experience.
On the Battle.net platform, you can earn achievements by owning games, and achievements can accumulate official points, which can then be redeemed for some virtual resources in the official Battle.net platform.
Some of these virtual resources are interoperable with some games.
Whoever can obtain certain cherished virtual resources on the Battle.net platform can also become a kind of bragging capital, which also greatly satisfies the inner desire of many players to show off.
This is commonly known as once you are used to eating fine rice, you are not used to sifting the chaff.
The Battle.net platform has a better experience. Even if you are playing a stand-alone PC game, you can still have various interactions on it, giving a stand-alone game a social interaction function.
So even just for this additional service, some players are more willing to stay on the Battle.net platform and play games on it.
What's more, for many games, if you have enough patience, you can wait for a year or two to get a good discount on the price of the game, and then take advantage of the sale to buy the game.
It's like spending a small amount of money to do a big thing, the only thing is that you have to wait.
And pirated game players are actually a group of very patient people.
They can patiently wait for more mature pirated games for a good game.
They are also patiently waiting for the game to be discounted to a level that they can fully accept.
With the combined effect of these several methods, even if pirated games still cannot be completely cut off, the situation where the sales of most game companies do not match the popularity of the games is gradually easing.
At the same time, the main work of Youxing Electronic Entertainment is still going on.
In the second half of 2017, the latest game consoles and the latest top games that players have been waiting for for a long time were finally officially released.
"Whoa! Whoa."
"Be good, don't cry."
In a certain family, the man who had just become a father was very anxious about mixing milk powder and other things.
His wife is already very tired after giving birth to a child, so he, as a man, naturally has to shoulder the responsibility.
So he can only deal with all the troubles alone.
But the schedule of a newborn baby is quite irregular for a few months.
Sometimes you need to stay with your child most of the night and serve him all the time.
Really, why would I want to have a baby?
The man complained in his heart.
But looking at the cute look of the child not far away, his eyes became doting again.
This may be some kind of human instinct.
An instinct of love for children.
And what he has to do now is give his children the best things.
At the same time, today was specially circled on the wall calendar.
The man is feeding his child and looking at the calendar.
Today is the day that Yuxing Electronic Entertainment’s latest game console is released.
And he has been waiting for this day for a long time.
It was just the child that kept him from getting away.
He probably worked until late at night at three or four o'clock in the morning, but the child still showed no sign of resting. He could only accompany the child in a daze.
It seems that he won't be able to buy the latest game console today.
Originally, he had planned to go out to buy a game console in the early morning this morning.
In this era, Internet shopping has become quite developed.
But for something like the launch of a game console, it still feels like a ritual to participate in the launch queue.
That will be a very rare opportunity for many game enthusiasts to gather together.
But...hey...
The man continued to pat the child's back to make the child feel more stable, and sighed.
After becoming a father, his responsibilities have become heavier.
but……
Is there really no chance?
He was a little unwilling.
He wants to buy the latest game console.
But I still have children that I have to take care of.
So now he only has one office.
That is, take your children to queue!
Yes, this is the only way.
This is your only chance to play the game for the first time.
Finally, he looked at the clock that was gradually reaching eight o'clock and made a decision.
Just take your kids to buy a game console!
No matter what today, even if he only touches it a little bit, he will buy the game console.
You definitely can’t miss the opportunity to premiere the game!
As soon as he thought of it, he quietly wrapped the child up to ensure that he would not catch the cold, then carried the child into the car, started the car and rushed towards the nearest department store.
As long as you hurry up, your wife may not notice it at all.
