There is a Problem with This Online Game Planning

The penultimate day of the Forest Carnival.

that night.

Not long after the meet and greet.

The promotional video and real machine demonstration video of "World of Warcraft" were released.

At the same time, there is also the official website for making reservations for participating in the beta test.

As the most popular online game launched by the most watched game company in China, it was announced at an event like the Forest Carnival, so one can imagine how much attention it has received.

Probably equivalent to Blizzard at its peak, in the second year after Overwatch was released, an online game was launched at Carnival, and this online game was also called "Titan" (not a mobile game).

Even if the fact of the game itself is not discussed, it can be regarded as an event that attracts the attention of the game circle!

This is why so many players discuss "World of Warcraft".

And judging from the published information and the information disclosed at the meeting, this game is still very interesting!

It has been a long time since Linmu Studio made online game gimmicks, and the game itself has fresh and interesting mechanisms such as two-camp confrontation.

one plus one.

directly greater than two.

In this situation.

It is not surprising how enthusiastic the players are in the discussion.

And after the announcement of the reservation page, one can imagine how enthusiastic the players are...

This time, Lin Mu Studio played a tricky game and did not hide the number of reservations, but announced it openly.

All the players who opened the reservation page at the first time saw that the number of reservations was several thousand, and then refreshed, it directly became a miracle of 30,000.

And when it was prime time at night, the number of reservations soared at a rate of 50,000 per second!

In the end, the players watched with their own eyes that the number of reservations broke through one million, two million, three million, four million, and then five million...

There are domestic players and overseas players.

After all, the audience of Linmu Studio's games is not only domestic.

The players were excited to watch the number of reservations increase, and they felt proud.

Colleagues watched the number of appointments soar as if they had eaten a stool.

Although the reservation threshold is not high and there is no cost, it is one of the reasons for the soaring number of reservations.

But it's outrageous!

This speed is really terrifying!

Some colleagues even suspect that Linmu Studio is fake!

But if you open a game-related community, as long as it is a slightly well-known community, you can see discussions about "World of Warcraft".

this……

The reservation threshold is not high, and there is no cost is indeed one of the main reasons for the surge in the number of reservations.

But you said that the players are not interested, and the colleagues are the first to not believe it...

It turns out.

Linmu Workshop is indeed back... their emperor is indeed back...

Facing this situation, Linmu Studio’s colleagues who haven’t had a good time can only hope that “World of Warcraft” will cause controversy like “Monster Hunter” like the previous two days, or that the game will hit the street after the public beta. .

But after thinking about it, the controversy like "Monster Hunter" has been resolved...

And "World of Warcraft" doesn't look like it will rush to the street after watching the promotional video and the actual machine.

Immediately and involuntarily, thoughts of despair arose.

So many colleagues can't sleep anyway, and it's normal.

They can't help it either.

It can't even interrupt the player's carnival mood.

How to interrupt? Want to host a similar event?

Whether it's too late or not, I don't have the capital to hold an event like the 'Forest Carnival'.

Other major manufacturers with well-known IP may be able to hold it.

But what does online games matter to them? Besides, players have experienced the 'Forest Carnival', and their psychological expectations for this kind of event are already extremely high, who would make fun of themselves.

So in the end, the colleagues can only sigh, why are they back again...

Then, make do with it... and put your hands together and pray that there is a problem with the "World of Warcraft" public beta, and you'd better go to the street.

What else can we do?

And this night passed amidst the heated discussions among the players and the prayers of the colleagues with folded hands.

the next day.

The domestic May Day holiday is officially over.

However, the popularity of the live broadcast of the "Forest Carnival" did not fall but rose, and it was even higher.

Because there are more players getting up early, before they are about to go out, they subconsciously turn on the live broadcast, ready to see if there is any other information worth paying attention to, and then go out to the work place, and those who have the conditions will keep opening the live broadcast room state.

Many people even took leave.

This is why the live broadcast is more popular.

Players are afraid of missing important information!

After all, although the title of the live broadcast says 'trial and closing ceremony', what if a new screen of the game appears during the trial?

Linmu Studio has announced a number of new games, and they are all very interested!

Yesterday's "World of Warcraft" raised the expectations of most players who knew Linmu Studio to the highest level, especially domestic players.

Although it is not as exaggerated as growing up playing forest studio games.

However, the online games of Linmu Studio have indeed accompanied many players through the time in the ivory tower.

Now Linmu Studio has launched an online game, nostalgia or pure interest, anyway, they don't want to miss it.

And the scene of the 'Forest Carnival' was even more outrageous.

The staff who checked the tickets finally reported that only three people did not come.

Yes.

This kind of big event clearly stated that without the announcement of a new game, only three people chose to go back to work, and everyone else came.

This was beyond Lin Yao's expectation.

And Li Guangsheng and Mou Feng also came today...

Originally, they planned not to come on the last day, after all, if they missed the demo and closing ceremony, they would miss it.

What does the trial play and closing ceremony of the stand-alone game have to do with them? There is not much experience to learn from.

But plans can never keep up with change.

A piece of "World of Warcraft" directly made them physically honest, and ran over obediently...

They want to test the fineness of "World of Warcraft", which is envisioned as the next biggest crisis for Tianhu.

"Next, let's line up in the two demo areas separately. No matter what, we'll find out the details of this online game!"

While queuing up to check the tickets, Mou Feng told Li Guangsheng next to him.

"En." Li Guangsheng nodded.

"Remember to understand this game as thoroughly as possible." Mou Feng was still worried, and reminded him again.

In order to be able to queue for trial play.

He woke up Li Guangsheng who was barely asleep in advance.

Then they came to the venue early together in a sluggish spirit.

Not as stuck as before.

Just for trial play!

"I understand." Li Guangsheng rubbed the center of his brows: "I also know the seriousness of the matter, don't worry."

"Okay, let's go in."

Mou Feng saw that he was already in line.

After dropping a sentence.

The ticket was successfully checked and entered the venue.

Then he took Li Guangsheng straight to the trial area of ​​"World of Warcraft".

Then.

He was dumbfounded.

The situation in the demo area can be described in one word.

That's a sea of ​​people...

Several staff members held up signs to indicate where the players should line up, while evacuating the crowd, asking players not to block the passage as much as possible.

But even if several staff members join the battle, it is still very reluctant.

The players are so enthusiastic.

And the players in line, even though there are thousands of people in front of them, are still full of excitement.

After all, there will be no face-to-face meeting today, only the closing ceremony in the evening.

They can fight here... no, it will take a whole day!

Definitely get to try out new games!

"...Fuck!"

Mou Feng looked at the excited players and the long queue. The ticket stub in his hand fell to the ground. He opened his mouth and was stunned for a long time.

He cursed angrily.

tm! He came early!

Why are there still so many people!

As for?

As for it! ! ?

You live at the venue, right? ?

The two of them hadn't closed their eyes all night, but seeing this scene again, they couldn't help but feel even more desperate.

It will take a year of the monkey to play the trial game?

What made them even more desperate was the occasional yelling in the demo area...

"Fuck! Teldrassil is so beautiful... an elegant and mysterious night elf building, but tm is too complicated, it feels like a maze, I can only say that it is an elf!"

"The picture is so good, the fighter is so handsome!!"

"I met someone from the tribe! The other party opened PVP, the one on the other side, is that you?"

"The murloc's cry is too weird, I'll listen to it again."

"Next copy, next copy!"

"Crazy, what level are you, and do you have enough time?"

"New map! Ashen Valley! Fuck! Can you let me play for a day!?"

"..."

Mou Feng and Li Guangsheng listened attentively to the fuss of the players over there.

Then, like petrification, he stood in place.

The only thought is.

Fuck!

Not so!

Are the players so satisfied?

The two were silent for a long time, then looked at each other with helpless expressions.

...

It is probably also a premonition that there will be a lot of people trying new games such as "World of Warcraft".

In the past few days, Linmu Studio has also made preparations.

The venue where it was determined that the meet and greet will not be held before is equipped with equipment.

Players can come here to play the existing games of Forest Studio with their friends, and have an exciting match with the players on the spot.

Such as "Breakout", "Mario Kart", "Splatoon", "Warcraft"...

These partitions allow many players who are unwilling to queue up all day to find fun.

Everywhere you hear 'rush B! ’, ‘Ah! ’, ‘Is the king of the human race joking with you? ’, ‘Excuse me, don’t throw a tortoise shell on my head, my carriage has never won the first place’ and so on.

There are smiling faces of players everywhere...

Seeing the crowd of people queuing up to try out the game, Li Guangsheng and Mou Feng, who were about to go shopping to pass the time, became more and more silent as they walked around.

Too contagious...

Even on the last day without a meet and greet, players talking excitedly and with happy smiles on their faces can be seen everywhere.

Passed by a pair of talking and laughing players again.

Mou Feng stopped suddenly.

Sighed.

"Let's go play a game too."

Li Guangsheng was shocked: "Ah? Why? You have thick eyebrows and big eyes..."

"Let's go shopping again, I'm afraid I'll lose all my energy."

Mou Feng interrupted him directly, and then dragged him to the play area.

no way.

The atmosphere is so good and the appeal is too strong. He has a premonition that the 'Forest Carnival' will become one of the most successful game events, and it will probably attract more and more attention in the future, just like the Global Game Awards... …Maybe it will eventually become a game event that attracts the attention of players all over the world.

After all, in the first carnival, Linmu Studio left a deep impression on all players.

He didn't want to watch it anymore, otherwise he would only become more and more desperate.

It's better to immerse yourself in the game, just like the players, so as to prevent yourself from thinking wildly.

Seeing Mou Feng's expression, Li Guangsheng fell silent.

Then.

The two of them went to various game areas and played for a day...

But in the end, it still didn't make it to the demo of "World of Warcraft".

Too many people.

The methods they can think of, such as queuing up during lunch time, the players can also think of.

They can't play younger players...

In the end, it was the existing games of other forest studios that they played a lot.

I'm pretty happy... just like other players.

And it turns out.

One day is really not enough.

The demos of other new games are okay. After all, it was opened a few days ago, and most interested players have experienced it. However, the trial of "World of Warcraft" is the latest to open, and the trial time of online games is relatively long. Many people still haven't made it .

But everyone is very happy.

Even if you don’t have a demo, it’s fun to play the existing games of Linmu Studio with your friends in this environment!

Although it was the last day, I was a bit sad that the "Forest Carnival" was over, but I was still happy! !

And this mood lasted until the evening.

The final closing ceremony is about to begin.

All the players put away their happy smiles.

It's about to end...

The players gave up queuing and the game they were playing at the same time, and began to rush to the main stage one after another.

soon.

It was around six o'clock.

Everyone came to the main stage.

Including Mou Feng and Li Guangsheng.

Logically speaking, they should go back since they were not scheduled for the trial play, but they still came.

front row.

"It's about to end."

Li Yu looked at the drum set on the stage with a look of reluctance.

"Yeah... I hope Lin Yao can still appear in the closing ceremony." Yi Wenwen next to him also looked at the stage, "It's best to wear high heels."

"You are really persistent." Li Yu glanced at him.

"That's necessary. I dream that Lin Yao will appear on stage again! Damn it! If Lin Yao doesn't appear on stage, I will definitely come back next year!"

"……Me too."

On the other side of Li Yu.

Marvin did not express any doubts about the drum set on the stage, but instead said with regret: "Peter, this is the best game event I have ever participated in, but it is about to end! I never thought about it before I came, would be so happy."

"Yes, but you said why there is a drum set on the stage." Pete nodded, and then asked.

"Shit! Did you intentionally take revenge?"

"I'm just curious. The opening ceremony left a deep impression on me. I'm a little bit sad that this event will end, and I hope it can have a perfect ending."

"Okay, but I don't know, I don't think Forest Studio will let us down."

"..."

The players in the venue whispered to each other.

at the same time.

Backstage.

Lin Yao wore a neat ponytail, looked at the staff who were eager to participate in the performance, and said, "Let's draw a perfect end to the forest carnival!"

"oh!!!"

Zhu Nianqiao was the first to raise his hand, loudly expressing his approval.

But this time, the others didn't ignore her, but raised their hands together with her, acting silly together.

Because they too are happy and excited.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yao smiled, and finally said cheers, and then pulled Mu Wanqing away to change clothes.

One last time she will play.

...

main stage.

As seven o'clock approached...

The lights in the auditorium were dimmed, and the lights on the stage were turned on.

"coming."

Seeing this scene, Mou Feng sighed. Once he left the game, he felt a little melancholy again.

Damn, I'm so envious! !

Li Guangsheng remained silent.

And at the same time.

Live streaming sites at home and abroad.

The live broadcast room of the forest carnival.

Players who watched the live broadcast online came to the top with the arrival of the evening peak!

The staff of the live broadcast website stared at the live broadcast of the closing ceremony. On the one hand, it was to prevent the crash, and on the other hand, they wanted to watch it.

At this moment, many colleagues in Linmu Studio also turned on the live broadcast like a ghost.

They also want to see how Linmu Studio will end the carnival...

Right in the spotlight.

Seven o'clock came.

boom.

Accompanied by fireworks blooming on the edge of the stage.

The screen on the stage began to play the images of the previous five days of carnival.

Then four staff members walked onto the stage while waving their hands.

One is carrying bass, one is carrying guitar, one is holding drumsticks, and the last lead singer is empty-handed.

They take their places.

"ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!"

The players cheered loudly when they saw this scene.

The staff on stage are familiar to the players.

The person carrying the bass is Zhong Xiu, the head of the PC department of Linmu Studio. Sitting behind the drum kit is Qi Jianhua, a well-known dish. Although the guitarist and lead singer players do not know each other, they must be the staff of Linmu Studio.

They could guess that the closing ceremony was also about music.

But the staff of Linmu Studio came to the stage to perform in person, they really didn't expect it.

And the guesses of the players were right.

The lead singer and guitarist are indeed studio staff inside Linmu Studio, the guitarist is Xu Yan, and the lead singer is Yan Xin.

In addition to playing games, the two played the guitar well, and the other had a very good voice, which is why they came to the stage.

"Good evening, everyone!"

Lead singer Yan Xin came to the microphone and yelled loudly.

What responded to him was cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami.

Yan Xin grinned immediately, then exchanged glances with the others present, then suddenly raised her hand and put it in front of the microphone.

He clapped his hands lightly.

The amplified applause spread throughout the venue through the audio equipment.

At the same time, the sound of the drum set sounded.

The drumbeat matched the applause and became the rhythm.

Then came the guitar and bass ensemble.

Yan Xin put down his hand at the right time and leaned in front of the microphone.

Get stuck.

Shaking his head slightly.

The rhythm infects all players.

Yan Xin spoke.

[Buddy you're a boy make a big noise (buddy you're a boy make a big noise)]

【Playing in the streets gonna be a big man someday】

【You got mud on your face】

【You big disgrace】

It is one of Queen's most famous songs, "We will rock you".

Yan Xin's metallic voice resounded throughout the main stage.

You said that you can't compare with Queen's lead singer Freddie, let alone Typhoon, after all, he is an amateur.

But the infectious power of music is always there, especially after you put your emotions into it!

In fact.

The moment the singing sounded, the audience in the audience was stunned.

Never heard of this song?

But soon.

The thought was thrown to the back of his mind.

So people subconsciously shook their legs following the highly contagious rhythm.

【Kicking your can all over the place (kicking your can all over the place)】

【Singing (sing out loud)】

【We will, we will rock you (We will rock you)】

【We will, we will rock you (We will rock you)】

And came to the climax of the song.

A metallic voice takes the lead.

The chorus then includes guitar, bass and drummers singing 'We Will Rock You'.

moment!

All the players got goosebumps all over their bodies!

Then, cheers rang out.

I don't know who is taking the lead, but all the players applaud along with the drumbeat.

Intensive applause stuck in a very infectious rhythm.

Let the lead singer Yan Xin sing the second time, which is even more shocking.

offstage.

Mou Feng heard the applause mixed with the drumbeat, and looked at the lead singer on the stage with blue veins on his neck.

There was a sudden shock, and the whole person trembled.

Goosebumps all over.

"Fuck!!"

Mou Feng clenched his fists tightly.

Hold back your emotions.

So tm shocked! !

But is it necessary?

It is necessary to do this for the sake of it! ! !

In fact, everyone felt the same way he did.

certainly.

Players are more excited.

In the venue, all the players yelled out the lyrics for the second time, and even followed the lyrics that Jiang Jing had listened to once.

【Singing (sing out loud)】

【We will, we will rock you (We will rock you)】

Applause mixed with the chorus.

Resounded throughout the venue.

Everyone becomes involuntary.

Even Mou Feng.

As expected, the live commenting system of the live streaming site crashed.

at last.

A guitar solo plays.

The atmosphere reached a peak in an instant.

All the players blushed and got up together, roaring and cheering.

"Thank you for coming to the carnival! Thank you! I am as happy as you are!"

The song is over.

Yan Xin was completely excited.

Panting, he moved to the microphone and shouted loudly: "In addition to this one, Lin Yao has prepared many songs for me to dedicate to you, but before that, I want to ask you... Are you ready?" Yet?"

"ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!"

no doubt.

He was greeted with cheers.

All players have stood up and did not sit back.

"Then... the next song, Highway."

Yan Xin roared.

The music starts again.

The rhythm changed.

The guitar starts.

Yan Xin took a deep breath and spoke with a smile.

[Open the window of the car, the sun is overhead]

[The right side of the road, the boundless ocean]

【I doubt my dream】

A song with a completely different style from the first one.

The "highway" of the vertical line.

And this time the four staff members sang together.

The only constant.

Probably the emotions of the players.

【Always learn to forget, learn to heal】

[Always have to stumble to find the answer]

【You say I am always absurd, I admit that I am absurd】

【Do you think I like this】

[The beautiful time in the past, along the waves, flow to the unknown distance]

Really no player can sit still.

Everyone cheered up.

Even the players watching the live broadcast got up, smiled, watched the live broadcast screen, listened to the flowing singing, and waved their fists excitedly.

Live website.

The real-time comment system collapsed, okay, collapsed, and in the process, the live broadcast of the forest carnival went straight to the top of the hot list.

Many viewers who didn't know the truth clicked on the live broadcast and were dumbfounded.

Is this a concert?

Including outside the tree carnival venue.

Many passers-by were dumbfounded when they heard the singing and cheers coming from inside. Is this a concert?

And the players who knew the truth were all happy and crazy!

The only thing that might not be happy.

Probably only Li Xin, the person in charge of the music studio with whom Linmu Studio has cooperated the longest since its establishment.

He stayed in the background, looked at the amateur band singing on the screen, and stood beside Xi Qianyu, the head of the marketing department of Linmu Studio, with a look of hatred on his face: "It's really a waste of money!!! If these songs are given to How good would a professional singer be when they recorded!!! Finally, they made their first appearances, but they were all put on the scene with only tens of thousands of people! Those who listened were players! Not fans!"

The songs this time are basically assisted by them.

He had long felt that he wasted money, and even repeatedly wanted to buy out these songs from Lin Yao and sing them to a professional band.

But Lin Yao ignored him.

Stick to it.

Standing next to him, Xi Qianyu, head of the marketing department of Linmu Studio, who was wearing a professional suit, was listening to the singing, jumping up and down to the rhythm.

But when she heard Li Xin's words, she immediately stopped and rolled her eyes.

Very speechless.

Then, she went straight away.

"What are you doing?" Li Xin was stunned.

Xi Qianyu didn't speak, he was going to listen to the music live.

What social! Let's talk tomorrow!

She doesn't want to stay with Li Xin for the time being, she wants to stay with the player.

She wanted to go to the scene to listen to the songs dedicated to the players from Lin Yao's mouth and watch her colleagues perform.

It must be more comfortable and happy than backstage!

...

at the same time.

A song is sung again.

Accompanied by the cheers of the enthusiastic audience.

There was a change on stage.

The previous drummer, bassist, and guitarist were replaced by a new crew.

Zhu Nianqiao served as the lead singer.

Linmu Studio can basically play, and those who are confident will go up!

Seeing the staff members I met at the meeting a few days ago, one by one, they came to the stage.

The audience has completely forgotten about everything else.

And the entrance gate.

Lin Yao has always stood closest to the stage.

She hummed the song lightly, with a nostalgic expression on her round and pretty oval face, she slowly leaned against the wall, then rested her head on Mu Wanqing's shoulder, showing a smile.

It seems...it works well.

The Forest Carnival should end perfectly, and after that new era comes, I hope it can continue!

the other side.

Mu Wanqing looked sideways at Lin Yao's smooth oval face, and couldn't help but smile gently.

on stage.

The staff of Linmu Studio went into battle together.

Old songs and new songs are mixed, and I sang them all!

Includes theme songs for many games.

Player enthusiasm is getting higher and higher.

final round.

At the beginning, Qi Jianhua, Zhong Xiu, guitarist Xu Yan, and lead singer Yan Xin returned to the stage again.

The players were sweating, but still bouncing and waving to welcome them.

And this time.

Yan Xin didn't talk nonsense.

The lights on the stage condensed into a bunch.

It hit Zhong Xiu, the bass player, directly.

Then, a clear bass sound sounded.

This scene is not common.

Bassist!

The players were slightly taken aback, then shouted again.

Then came the ensemble.

The accompaniment with a strong sense of rhythm sounded.

Yan Xin held the microphone and spoke.

【Ooh, let's go! (Oh, let's go!)】

【Steve walks warily down the street (Steve walks warily down the street)】

【With the brim pulled way down low (the brim is pulled very low)】

【…】

【Are you ready? Hey, are you ready for this? (Are you ready? Are you ready to accept it all?)】

【Are you hanging on the edge of your seat? (Are you too nervous to fidget?)】

【Out of the doorway the bullets rip (bullets cut through the silence and rip out of the door)】

【…】

【Another one bites the dust (Another one bites the dust)】

【Another one bites the dust (Another one bites the dust)】

Heard another new song with a strong rhythm.

The players are already in high spirits!

Li Guangsheng and Mou Feng questioned each other slowly.

They always felt that the lyrics meant something, but they couldn't turn their minds around. They who stayed at the scene were completely infected.

Yan Xin hugged the microphone, full of emotion, without any skill.

Second time.

He suddenly looked towards the entrance door.

Standing at the door, Lin Yao looked at Zhong Xiu, who was the bass player on the stage, and suddenly said, "Do you think Zhong Xiu chose this song because he wanted to look handsome?"

"It's possible." Mu Wanqing smiled gently, then patted Lin Yao's thin back: "But now is not the time to pay attention to this, it's almost time for you to play."

"……Um."

Lin Yao was silent for a moment, looked at Mu Wanqing's beautiful face, suddenly smiled, and grabbed her hand.

Before Mu Wanqing could react, she was directly pulled forward.

at the same time.

on stage.

[Oh, take it (get ready!!!)]

Suddenly, with the accompaniment with a strong sense of rhythm, Yan Xin roared out.

On the stage, the lights dimmed suddenly.

Spotlights twisted into a bunch,

Hit the entry gate.

A tall girl in a maid's uniform ran up, pulling a sister Yu in professional attire.

Standing in the spotlight.

"ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!"

See Lin Yao.

This moment.

offstage.

Cheers, whistles, and screams mingled together.

The unprecedented volume resounded throughout the venue.

Lin Yao pulled Mu Wanqing to the center of the stage.

"Thank you for coming to the forest carnival!"

Lin Yao didn't care if the players could hear her or not, she pulled Mu Wanqing and bowed to all the players.

at the same time.

player head.

The golden fireworks exploded suddenly and sprinkled on the heads of everyone in the venue.

Music, cheers, fireworks, girls.

The atmosphere is at its peak!

Behind the auditorium.

Xi Qianyu and a large group of staff from Linmu Studio jumped and danced along with the players to the music.

More like a player than a player.

Everyone had happy smiles on their faces.

The girl standing on the stage smiled like a flower.

She stood on the stage, behind the falling golden fireworks, and her figure was reflected in everyone's eyes.

The singing flowed quietly.

This scene became the follow-up to the scene where Lin Yao inserted the console into the base with her hands behind her back at the host press conference of Linmu Studio.

Another classic scene in the history of this world game.

It has become a common memory for all players.

Sorry for the inconvenience I caused you all earlier.
