How effective Reflecta’s large-scale publicity is and how much its sales have increased are unknown to outsiders.
However, they promoted two new game videos as if they were their own sons.
It's really popular.
Fire.
Especially the promotional video for "Battlefield".
Anyone who likes to play shooting games will not be able to resist after watching the promotional video and are looking forward to the game.
And as the number of players who have watched the promotional video increases, there are more discussions about the game.
Among them, there are many military fans who like to play shooting games.
While these players were looking forward to it, some of them also expressed the same doubts as Frank.
That's a battle...how to do it?
Can this really be fun?
Isn't it...a propaganda scam?
Originally, this kind of discussion was not bad, it was not that there were not many, that is, some players expressed concerns.
But this time, it's Black Friday...
So very quickly.
With the help of two other host manufacturers.
Discussions on this point began to surge, and the popularity began to soar.
More players have seen discussions about how to do a battle and whether the game is fun or not.
Some players believe in Linmu Studio and think they can definitely do it.
Another player is pessimistic.
With the continued push from the other two console manufacturers, it was the latter that finally gained the upper hand.
The game has not been released.
The reviews started to become polarized...
Some of Reflecta's senior executives also quickly learned of the news.
The grand occasion of the press conference was gradually forgotten by them.
They also started to murmur.
Can't help but think about it.
The game "Battlefield" seems to have no real-life footage, so is this game... really that good? Is it really worth it?
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they begin to grow wildly.
This directly caused Zhang Jianghu to be bombarded with phone calls...
Faced with numerous inquiries from senior executives, he had no choice but to contact Lin Mu Studio to get more promotional materials.
Linmu Studio also responded to him quickly and sent him promotional materials.
This time, Zhang Jianghu was cautious and watched the promotional video given by Linmu Studio first.
And the moment I finished watching it.
Zhang Jianghu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
…
North America.
Black Friday.
night.
Zebulon stood next to his good brother Marco, looked at the computer screen, and said impatiently: "Hey, brother, do you want to buy it or not?"
"I am considering!"
Marco looked at the heated discussion below the promotional video for "Battlefield" and waved his hands without looking back, also a little impatient.
After watching the Reflecta press conference, the two originally decided to buy a Reflecta host.
But when I placed the order today... they encountered some problems.
Marco saw the discussion about whether the theme of World War I was fun or not, and hesitated.
I haven't placed an order yet.
"After midnight, the promotion may not be that strong."
Zebulon complained.
"hold on……"
Marco was still hesitating, not sure whether he should buy it or not.
"Should we forget it?" Zebulon didn't want to be entangled.
"Wait a minute... huh?"
In the middle of speaking, Marco suddenly made a confused sound.
The video website just pushed a video to him.
The title is... "Battlefield" real-life footage.
His eyes lit up, he immediately closed the page and clicked on the pushed video.
And he pulled Zebulon beside him hard.
Zebulon glanced at it and immediately said 'hmm', holding Marco's shoulders, bent down and looked at the screen.
Marco clicks on the video.
The video will play immediately.
The familiar Linmu Studio LOGO flashed away.
then.
The game screen will appear.
There is no unnecessary foreshadowing.
A first-person game screen appears on the screen. The player holds a bolt-action rifle and runs quickly inside a house, engaging enemies in close combat.
As soon as the two parties met, they immediately opened fire.
Bullets whizzed past the player's ears, and teammates were suddenly hit in the head and fell violently.
The player immediately took aim and fired a shot, killing the enemy.
Up until this point, it was still a normal FPS game.
It's just very expressive.
But the next second.
Accompanied by the sound effects of artillery fire.
Suddenly a cannonball fell with a bang.
There was a buzzing sound in the background, debris continued to fall, the scene was destroyed, and half of the wall next to the building was blown down...
On the other side of the wall, enemies appeared.
They raised their hands and shot the player in the promotional video.
The player leaned back and fell to the ground.
Mark:"!?"
Zebulon: “!?”
Wait, ruin the scene!?
Before the Marco brothers could react.
The video picture suddenly changed.
Another map.
Jungle warfare.
Players are scattered and running in the jungle, seemingly trying to seize a certain stronghold.
Roar, bullets, artillery fire and various sound effects come and go.
Players' capture of points went smoothly at first.
But when you persevere.
far away.
The behemoth Zeppelin airship was slowly approaching. Cannonballs and bullets were pouring down from it. Along with the splashing soil, the defense line collapsed at the first touch...
The opponent's players also rushed forward.
Mark:"……"
Zebulon: “…”
Then... the picture changed again.
Another new model.
The actual gameplay video released by Linmu Studio this time.
The first impression given to players is...
chaos.
Very messy.
There was black smoke and sparks everywhere,
Various bullets, artillery fire, mortars, and projectiles were flying randomly.
Various vehicles are running around the map.
But it is these chaotic scenes that vividly depict the tragedy of the war...
In the video, in addition to conventional infantry combat, players can also drive tanks, fly aircraft, charge on horseback, and charge with bayonets...
It's really dazzling.
Although, the gameplay introduction video this time is also not long, only about ten minutes.
But it took more than ten minutes.
Zebulon and Marco were stunned...
The actual video playback is completed.
Neither of them could come back to their senses for a long time.
Isn’t this... so cool!?
After a long time.
Marco finally reacted. He glanced at the window that ended the playback, turned his head suddenly, looked at Zibulon, and said excitedly: "Quick! Get my credit card! Quick! I'll buy it now!"
"..."
Zebulon was also very excited. He immediately dug into his pockets and was so excited that he even took out his credit card...
…
As soon as the actual gameplay demonstration video of "Battlefield" was released, the number of views began to soar.
The discussion that was originally very lively about how to do the first battle and whether the game is fun...in an instant, no one cared about it.
The actual machine demonstration video was released not long ago.
The number of pre-orders for "Battlefield" has also begun to soar...
the next day.
Black Friday has passed.
This year, on Black Friday, the sales data for games were not very surprising.
"Battlefield" did not reach the top because there is no physical game.
The one that reached the top was a certain shooting game from Gibber Company.
but.
On the Internet, there is no discussion about Gibber's shooting game. Instead, it is all about "Battlefield"...
This directly formed a very weird scene.
Obviously data sells best.
But no one discussed it.
On the contrary, it is a game that is not on the list, with players everywhere...
Gibber Company.
finally.
Frank still hasn't been able to relax at the golf club...
He hurriedly came to his office, looked at the overwhelming discussion about "Battlefield" on the Internet, stayed silent for a long time, and called Hawkins.
Not a moment.
The phone call went through.
"...Is this the shit you're talking about?" Frank sighed and asked.
Hawkins was silent for a moment and said angrily: "Shit!!"
