Wednesday, August 22nd.
Yan Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the last bug on the platform had been corrected.
Finally done!
Who knows what he has been through during this time.
In fact, according to the original development process, "Blade of the Empire" should have been launched a week ago. As a result, many unexpected bugs appeared one after another, forcing the game to be delayed for more than a week.
This is under the premise that everyone is working hard to quickly find bugs and make quick modifications.
Although it was postponed for a week, for Yan Qi, this was a good thing.
If it weren’t for the blessing of Feng Shui Treasure Land, I don’t know how long it would take to find these bugs. Although in that case, the game can be launched a week earlier, but after it is launched, it will definitely be very busy, and bugs will still have to be corrected, and it may also affect the game.
Word of mouth.
As for how many bugs there are left in the game, it’s hard to say.
It can only be said that those bugs that have a higher probability of occurrence and are easier to find have been found. Although there may be other bugs, if they are not encountered in the "Feng Shui Treasure Land" state, then players will not encounter them in the normal state.
Even less likely to encounter it.
Yan Qi packaged and installed the modified game on his mobile phone and came to Chaolu Game Platform again.
Whether the game can be launched online depends on how many bugs Director Tang encounters while playing, not counting the number of remaining bugs they count.
"Don't worry, Director Tang, we have fixed all the bugs that can be encountered in the game. There will definitely be no bugs this time!"
Yan Qi is full of confidence.
Tang Yishu didn't say anything, just nodded and took the phone.
Yan Qi watched from the side, and the game ran smoothly as he expected. He accepted tasks, entered levels, and defeated monsters...everything went without any problems.
Seeing that half an hour was coming, Yan Qi finally felt relieved.
But just when he thought it was stable, the game screen suddenly froze and an error occurred!
The time happened to be at the 29th minute.
Yan Qi was shocked.
How is this possible?
After fixing the bug, the testing team obviously ran it several times and found no new bugs!
There is still a result?
How much luck does it take to encounter this?
Tang Yishu handed the phone back: "Well... the requirements have been met, and the game can be arranged to go online."
Yan Qi took the phone and suddenly felt very lost.
Logically speaking, after achieving the goal of less than three bugs in half an hour and the game being online, he should be very happy.
Unexpectedly, Director Tang found a bug!
Yan Qi nodded: "Okay Director Tang, I will go back and correct this bug, and then arrange to go online!"
Returning to his workstation, Yan Qi immediately sent a screenshot of the bug to the testing team and development team, asking them to modify it immediately.
However, after trying for more than an hour, I just couldn’t reproduce it!
If he hadn't seen it with Director Tang's eyes, Yan Qi would have even doubted whether this bug really existed.
What is going on?
Today is Wednesday, bug should be at work, right?
Is the Feng Shui treasure spot invalid?
But if we look at the testers from other companies, they are all busy looking for bugs. Everything seems to be normal, right?
The only explanation can only be that this seems to be a very hidden bug with a very low probability of recurrence. Even in the state of "Feng Shui Treasure Land", it is still very difficult to encounter it.
Yan Qi was very confused. He felt that he had suffered from obsessive-compulsive disorder.
I know that there is a bug in the game, but I can't reproduce it, and I don't know how to fix it. It's like a little thorn stuck in my hand. I can't find it when I look for it, I can't pick it out, and I still have a vague feeling.
To feel uncomfortable.
My balls hurt!
What is even more speechless is that the Chaolu game platform has interfaces for various game test backends. The number of bugs in the current version of the test backend will be displayed on the game platform in real time.
Originally the bug had become 0, but now it has become 1.
This is not the difference between 0 and 1, it is simply the difference between something and nothing!
Yan Qi struggled for a long time and finally gave up.
Forget it, it’s just a bug. It’s not cost-effective to continue to delay the game just for a bug that has a very low probability of recurrence and is unlikely to be encountered by most players.
Let’s play online!
Yan Qi notified the development team, and then communicated with the staff responsible for docking at the Chaolu Game Platform to officially launch the game.
The operation of going online is very simple in itself, but it certainly cannot be done in a dry manner. Corresponding recommended resources must be arranged.
If the game is online but no players see it, isn’t it lonely?
At present, Chaolu Game Platform has gone through two rounds of large-scale publicity. Although the conversion rate is not high, it has also accumulated some players. Moreover, there are few games in the early stage of the platform and the competition is not so fierce. It is easy to get better quality products.
The recommendation position is enough to meet the requirements of small companies.
The staff on both sides quickly carried out preliminary preparations and set the launch time at four o'clock in the afternoon.
Apart from continuing to look for the bug that was difficult to reproduce, Yan Qi had nothing else to do, so while waiting for the game to be launched, he opened the webpage and checked netizens' discussions about Chaolu Game Platform.
Then he was very surprised to find that while he was busy fixing bugs, netizens seemed to have had a very heated discussion on Chaolu Game Platform's behavior of displaying the number of bugs in each game!
"I discovered that this Chaolu gaming platform is obviously a deliberate hype and show! The so-called display of the number of bugs in all games is simply fake data, just to deepen the impression of players and promote themselves!"
“How do you know this is fake data?”
"It's very simple. I have been paying attention to the changes in the number of these bugs. On Sunday, the bugs of these companies were basically untouched. Even if there were changes, both the discovery of bugs and the modification of bugs were very slow. But as soon as Monday came,
On Tuesday, the speed was like cheating, growing rapidly!"
"Ah? Isn't this normal? My company is closed on the weekend."
"This is too unprofessional. What is a weekend holiday? First of all, game companies usually work intensively overtime before the game is launched. It is normal to even work overtime all night long. A weekend holiday? What do you think? Do you think companies in this industry all work overtime at a high intensity?
Is it Tenda? Secondly, for those games where the number of bugs has not changed at all, I regard it as a holiday, but what about the games that change slowly? Why is it so slow to find on weekends but so fast on Mondays?"
"It's really suspicious to say that..."
"Yes, I have also discovered that the speed of finding and fixing bugs is not scientific at all! It feels obviously much faster than the normal speed! According to common sense, in the later stages of project testing, finding bugs should be faster and faster
The harder it is, the more difficult it is, but the change in the number of bugs on the Chaolu game platform is linear and always very fast! Therefore, I also suspect that this should be false data prepared in advance."
"Damn, what's the point of deception in this? It's simply incomprehensible."
"It makes so much sense! First of all, it is precisely because most people feel that there is no need for the platform to deceive on this kind of thing, so the deception is not easily suspected or exposed; secondly, this marketing incident is nothing more than creating a
It’s a gimmick, claiming that the games on your platform are all released after bugs have been corrected. If you give your platform a character with ‘very few bugs’, wouldn’t this also attract many players?”
"Oh no, this kind of behavior is very bad! Although it is not very destructive, it is extremely insulting! Isn't this treating us players like monkeys?"
Watching these people's discussion, Yan Qi was simply stunned.
Did you actually get into a quarrel because of this?
Yan Qi knew very well that the reason why the bug was found so quickly was because of the existence of Feng Shui treasure land.
But the players don’t know that!
They only saw that the speed of bug correction was obviously wrong, so they suspected that Chaolu Game Platform was making fake data.
Yan Qi even wants to complain for Chaolu Gaming Platform, but these are all real data! It really can’t be true anymore!

But then I thought about it, I was a low-key person, so no one would believe what I said. Instead, I would be regarded as a lackey of the game platform and a troll.
"This incident is going on. Why do you feel that Chaolu Game Platform is plagued by bad luck?"
“From the beginning of building the website, nothing seems to go smoothly.”
"A lot of money has been spent on publicity, but not much money has been put into practice. Instead, it has been misunderstood. Bug fixing was originally a good thing, but it was also misunderstood as hype."
"Hey, forget it, I can't help you much. Let's have a private chat with Chaolu Gaming Platform and tell them the news. As for how to deal with it, let them handle it themselves."
Yan Qi didn't know if Director Tang was aware of these public opinions on the Internet, but it was always right to give him a heads up.
So, he opened the chat group and sent a private message to the staff member who created the group.
Soon, the other party replied: "Well, thank you for reminding us. We have noticed it and are thinking of a solution."
Yan Qi shook his head slightly.
I'm afraid it's too late to think of a solution now...
He looked at the discussions on the Internet and found that they had been arguing since Monday. At the beginning, there were some players who spoke to the game platform. But today is already Wednesday, and the Chaolu Game Platform has not come forward to explain, so those who believe that the platform is fraudulent
people have gained the upper hand.
In a public opinion incident like this, once a stereotype is formed, it will be too late to clarify it.
Unless there is some big event that can suddenly change public opinion, how can you say that this kind of thing will happen when you encounter it?
Yan Qi wanted to say a few more words, but then he thought about it. He had already done his best to say this. If he said too much, he would appear to be nosy, and he could only let Chaolu Game Platform seek happiness for itself.
Yan Qi thought for a long time, but finally said nothing and was about to turn off the chat software and continue busy with his own business.
But at this moment, he saw someone sending several messages in succession.
"It's broken, something big happened!"
"Our game has a very high negative review rate. If it continues like this, it will be removed from the market on Friday!"
"what to do?"
Several messages in a row and a screenshot.
Yan Qi took a closer look and found that he knew the person who sent the message. He was the person in charge of a local game company in Jingzhou.
This game is relatively old and has been operating on other platforms for more than half a year, so it has very few bugs. It is one of the four games officially launched on the first day of trial operation on the Chaolu Game Platform.
Chapter completed!
