The Morgan Group is not short of money at all, and its publicity campaign is a direct draw.
Around the booth, several cosplayers with the image of StarCraft machine gunners appeared. The burly steel armor and the oversized machine gun were all very impressive.
This also attracted more people to come and check out the situation.
These people also happened to see the game’s official release date and price announced.
"After our in-depth exchanges with Youxing Electronic Entertainment, we have decided to price StarCraft at 59 dollars per copy. If you pre-order now, you will also be able to get a small gift limited to the site, first come first served. As for the sale
date."
brush.
The picture on the screen changed again, and a large date was displayed.
It was officially released on July 1, 2000.
"One month later? One month later!"
"Long live!"
The players cheered.
They thought they would have to wait at least half a year for the game.
But it only takes a month to play.
In terms of production difficulty, StarCraft should be higher than Final Fantasy, but as long as the direction is clear, no detours are taken, and there is enough manpower, it is not difficult to develop.
In addition, the people involved in the development in the United States were particularly dedicated, and each of them was full of love for StarCraft. The development speed of the game was much faster than expected.
And this game also has another feature, that is, it will be continuously updated over time, unlike other traditional games that will hardly be modified after being sold.
This is also a node where video games are entering a new stage, which is network services.
Network services are not unique to online games. Stand-alone video games also require network services, but they do not have as high network requirements as online games.
"If you are interested in the game, you can also go to our trial area to experience the StarCraft trial. We will have dedicated people to guide you on how to play and compete."
"Wait, war? Does this mean we can fight each other?"
"It sounds like this, um, I have something to do now, so I will leave first. Everyone, please continue watching the promotional video."
"Hey, I have something to do, please give way."
"Give me a step. I need to go out. I feel a little urgent to pee right now."
As soon as the host said there would be a trial and experience area, these people couldn't help it anymore.
They began to walk out of the press conference crazily and headed to the Morgan Group's experience area.
Originally, the Morgan Group's experience area had very few players at the beginning, because most players did not take the Morgan Group's stuff seriously.
They come here to see the latest games and play games.
The Morgan Group only had system experience at the beginning, so naturally it did not attract many players.
But it’s different now. All the computers in the venue have adjusted their graphics in advance, and all machines have entered the main interface of the StarCraft trial. Players only need to come over and start the experience.
Moreover, the wealthy Morgan Group directly provides a machine with a dedicated service staff to help players solve all game problems and explain to them how to play the game.
There are more than 100 computers in the venue, which means more than 100 service personnel. Only a few large companies such as Morgan Group can do this without any scruples.
Just now, the service staff of the Morgan Group were very laid-back. They even got together to find a few game consoles to play StarCraft.
But in a blink of an eye, players began to pour in crazily, and they were all a little confused.
Fortunately, their professionalism is still there, and they quickly got into the mood and began to serve the players patiently.
"What happened? Why did all the players run away? And they all went to the Morgan Group?"
Gu Fei
At Lierda's booth, the newly appointed CEO personally came out to promote the latest game consoles and games.
At the beginning, many players were attracted to play the game through generous prizes.
The quality of the new games they developed this time is not too bad, and many players have indeed tried their games, and they have also shown interest in new consoles and new games.
This made the CEO very happy.
But he wasn't happy for long, as most of the players fled in the blink of an eye, and they all went to the Morgan Group.
What's going on?
If these players suddenly went to Surui Electronics or Youxing Electronic Entertainment, he would accept it.
But this suddenly went to the Morgan Group, which puzzled him.
Could it be that Morgan Group has also entered the gaming industry?
Damn it! Here comes another strong competitor. Why are there more competitors every day?
Having Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is enough to make people despair, can't you go to other industries? Why do you have to focus on video games?
"Boss, the Morgan Group has launched a game."
really!
Morgan Group, a super enterprise, is also going to enter the gaming industry. Damn it! It’s hard to make money again.
It's obviously already very difficult to make money.
But fortunately, it’s just a game, and the Morgan Group has just entered the game industry, and they definitely don’t understand the difficulty of game development. If they want to really develop a good game, they will definitely not be able to do it in a short time. For such a novice company, you can’t
It’s useless to have money, because without top game developers you can’t bring high profits.
He even thought a little viciously that the Morgan Group would spend a lot of money in the field of video games, only to get a bad result and eventually become the laughing stock of the industry.
"But the game is not produced by them, but by Youxing Electronic Entertainment."
Lierda CEO:???
What the hell is going on?
Was Yuxing Electronic Entertainment acquired?
His mind is now full of questions.
Then he realized a serious problem.
A super group that is extremely rich and occupies more than 80% of the market share of PC operating systems.
In addition, Youxing Electronic Entertainment, which also accounts for 80% of the influence in the gaming industry.
When these two guys come together, it seems that there will be no more enemies in the gaming industry.
"Damn it, what's going on, why do these two companies get together?"
The employee who came to report shrank his neck.
How could a small employee like him know such secret things?
Also shocked was Aiden, the North American head of Suri Electronics.
Former Lierda CEO of Brown Entertainment Huck Brown.
None of them could understand how this was done.
Regardless of whether they can figure out the reason for this, at least for now, the cooperation between Morgan Group and Youxing Electronic Entertainment is indeed amazing, and the gaming experience is also excellent.
