Rebirth of the Thousand-Faced Movie King

This strategy is actually very simple.

Plug-ins have appeared since the birth of online games.

In other words, he had the birth of plug-ins when video games began to appear.

There have been many cheating plug-ins in some stand-alone games before.

However, plug-ins for stand-alone games are only for your own use. They are not connected to the Internet and will not affect others. Up to now, plug-ins for stand-alone games have not been very well-known.

But as stand-alone games have turned into online games, cheats have become famous in online games.

Because the online game client is downloaded to the personal computer, almost any game has plug-ins.

This is something game developers cannot avoid.

Or you might say that these plug-ins may be made by some hackers.

Maybe there are some.

But today, when online games are so competitive, a lot of cheats are basically made by a series of competitors.

You studied his game and created a cheat.

He studied your game and created a cheat.

As for whether these plug-ins can affect your game, it depends on how each game company handles them.

But looking at the development of domestic online games over the years, Huanyu Technology has the most perfect way of dealing with cheats.

Some other game companies have more or less left a lot of criticism when dealing with cheats.

This is true for many domestic online game companies, not to mention Blizzard.

In the first wave, Huanyu Technology first took advantage of Blizzard’s promotional expenses.

In the second wave, Chen Yu will see how they deal with cheats.

To know.

If it is not handled well, the whole game will be over.

Back then, Huanyu Technology cheated Penguin Agent’s game. I don’t know how effective this cheating strategy was.

Even after many years, Chen Yu has tried this trick repeatedly.

…

"Alan, we have attracted more than 1,000 guilds to join us, but the promotion cost has exceeded the standard by 10 million."

"It's okay, but how many people do you expect on the first day of the closed beta if we don't delete files?"

"It's estimated to be around 300,000."

"300000?"

Allen was a little depressed: "Huanyu Technology's Lualu is more than three times that of 300,000. Moreover, they are only on the Huanyu system."

"Mr. Allen, Huanyu Technology itself is the leader in our field. In addition, they cooperate with major Internet cafes across the country, so..."

"Okay, 300,000 is actually not bad."

Allen didn't dwell on the issue anymore.

If the number of people online on the first day can reach 300,000, this is also a good number.

If we continue operating according to this trend, we can reach 600,000 in half a year, and strive to break 1 million in one year.

With high expectations, Heroes of the Storm will hold an uncensored closed beta as scheduled.

"Everyone, Heroes of the Storm has started beta testing. Can you get it?"

"Come on, why not? After all, Blizzard is still one of the most awesome game development companies in the world..."

"Why did you say it?"

"Because Huanyu Technology is also the most awesome."

"If you support Huanyu Technology so much, then you can play and play."

"Play, play, play, Heroes of the Storm should try it too."

…

"Guys, let's enter Heroes of the Storm."

"Boss, aren't we die-hard fans of Huanyu Technology?"

"Yes, we are die-hard fans of Huanyu Technology, but Blizzard gave us money."

"You're selling your soul for money."

"One code equals another. Play with the money first, then leave after taking it."

"Boss, such a shameless method is really exciting."

"Then count me in."

…

"It's fun to masturbate, but it's also a headache to go to the Internet cafe every day. How about playing Blizzard's Heroes of the Storm."

"Yes, I originally wanted to install the Huanyu system, but I don't know how to install it and it gives me a headache. Let's play together and see how it goes."

"I guess it won't be any different. It was developed by Blizzard."

"Yeah, I've downloaded it. Hurry up and enter the game."

…

Blizzard spent a lot of money after all.

At the same time, because Heroes of the Storm supports Windows, it is inherently possible for him to be pushed out.

Seeing the number of people entering the closed beta test on the first day, Allen was extremely excited.

"250000."

"260,000."

"270,000."

"Almost 300,000."

"290,000."

"300000……"

As soon as the data that exceeded 300,000 people online at the same time came out, all Blizzard employees were elated.

Many of them were poached from other game companies.

To be honest, they are not the most awesome gamers from other game companies.

However, they have always had the dream of making a blockbuster game.

Now, when they come to Blizzard, their dreams are coming true bit by bit.

"Chen Hui, you did a good job."

"Thank you Mr. Allen. I can only say that our game is very good, and it is recognized by most people, including Blizzard."

"Yes."

Although 300,000 is currently not comparable to Huanyu Technology’s Lua Lu, Allen still feels extremely excited when seeing so much traffic.

He used to make stand-alone games, although their stand-alone games have created countless brilliance and won countless honors.

But Allen didn't actually experience the scene of hundreds of thousands of people entering the game together.

This time he came to China and discovered it.

Although the technology of online games is not complicated, or even extremely simple, hundreds of thousands of people play games together. Isn't this a very exciting thing?

This also made Allen understand more and more why online games are so profitable in China.

However, while Blizzard and the others were celebrating their success, hundreds of programmers in the Huanyu Technology Game Department were working overtime and writing code desperately.

Heroes of the Storm has been put into beta testing, and the specific operations, game rules, experience system, etc. are constantly being analyzed.

After all the analysis of these data is completed, plug-in production begins.

certainly.

Zou Tao, who has countless experiences, knows that when you start making a plug-in, you must not just have a heaven-defying function.

What about invincibility, dominance, no blood loss, immortality, wall penetration, full field of vision, acceleration...etc.

Although these functions can make people extremely crazy when they come out, they will definitely be targeted by many game development companies as soon as they come out.

Even, it will be blocked immediately.

Although the ban will have a certain impact on players, as long as the game operators are determined, cheaters will be killed sooner or later.

What makes cheats go viral is the hesitation of game operators.

So.

First, make some plug-ins that do not seem to have any impact on the game. They are just auxiliary functions. It is easy for game operators to take them lightly.

If they don't block it immediately, then once the cheat spreads, it will be their death.

This move was used against penguins back then.

Many years later, with this move, Chen Yu was ready to deal with Blizzard.

The move is the same move.

Although Huanyu has already changed.

But Chen Yu believed that Blizzard couldn't stand this move either.

I looked at the time and saw it was exactly 8pm.

However, at this time, Blizzard announced that Heroes of the Storm exceeded 300,000 people online at the same time.

Chen Yu's face was calm.

This is normal.

Blizzard is Blizzard, and it still has some strength.

"Zhuzi, let's go, get off work."

After saying hello to his assistant Zhuzi, Chen Yu prepared to get off work.

But Zhuzi said: "Mr. Chen, just now Zou Tao said he wanted to come to the office?"

"Why, does he have anything else to report?"

"That's not clear."

After Zhuzi finished speaking, Zou Tao walked in: "Mr. Chen, our small program is ready."

"What?"

Chen Yu was stunned: "How long has it been?"

"It took 8 hours."

"sharp."

Chen Yu was amazed.

His previous order was for one day.

Unexpectedly, Zou Tao gave him a surprise.

In 8 hours, the Heroes of the Storm applet was created.

With such mobility, I would like to ask which of the domestic Internet companies can do this?

"Now that it's done, let's launch our mini program and take a look."

With the corners of his mouth raised, Chen Yu wanted to see Blizzard China CEO Allen, how he would deal with this cheat.

As far as he knew, although this Allen was a genius in the gaming industry, he really didn't have much experience in online games.

"Cheers, brothers."

"Mr. Chen, cheers."

"cheers."

After Heroes of the Storm broke the 300,000 concurrent online record, Blizzard Vice President Chen Hui recruited a group of subordinates who had jumped to Blizzard from other companies to work hard.

"I'm so happy today. 300,000 people were online at the same time on the first day. I almost thought it was a fake."

"Yeah, I was scared to death at the time. I thought only Huanyu Technology could produce such a record."

"What are you talking about? We at Blizzard are worse than Huanyu Technology. Besides, aren't we here just to prove to others?"

With that said, the topic opened up.

They all jumped to Blizzard from major domestic game companies.

Speaking of which, they were once buried in other game companies and could never find a chance to prove themselves.

Until today, they finally found this opportunity.

"Come on, cheers. After today, when we meet some of the guys from the past, we need to be tougher when we talk."

"That is, when I was at Shanda, I was bullied by many people. Hum, I have proved myself today."

"I am the same at NetEase. Damn it, those birdies have always been nepotistic. I have been working at NetEase for 5 years and they have never given me a chance."

"I am the same in Jiucheng, but today, we have taken this breath."

Everyone was talking and cheering.

Thinking of their previous experiences in the company, they all felt aggrieved.

"Look, these guys even sent me celebratory text messages."

"Haha, I have several here too."

"No, let me show you my..."

"It looks like a blessing, but inside the words, I see how bitter it is."

"Hahaha... we have to be calm, we have to be calm."

"Yes, yes, these guys are so angry."

After digging out some text messages sent by colleagues, everyone felt very happy.

"Okay, okay, that's it for today. Come on, let's do one last thing. We have to go to work tomorrow morning."

Chen Hui was also happy.

He jumped from Shanda to Blizzard, and in fact he suffered a lot of grievances.

Chen Hui has joined Shanda since its inception and has been following Shanda’s number two figure, Chen Danian.

But for so many years, he has only been given responsibility for some small projects and never for big projects.

This is also the reason why Chen Hui jumped to Blizzard.

fine.

Blizzard’s platform is big enough, and Heroes of the Storm is also competitive enough.

If he can successfully operate this online game, he will be considered the number one figure in online games in the future.

But after all, he is the vice president of Blizzard China. His subordinates can vent to their heart's content, but he is still relatively rational.

Seeing that the time was almost gone, we were ready to end the party.

However, just as everyone was preparing to go home, there was a call from the company.

"Mr. Chen, something's wrong."

"what happened?"

"There is a cheat in our Heroes of the Storm."

"What?"

There was a thud, and Chen Hui secretly screamed.

"Mr. Chen, what's wrong?"

Seeing that Chen Hui's expression was wrong, everyone asked.

"Let's go back to the company immediately."

How can I think about going home from get off work at this moment?

Although it was already 10 o'clock in the evening, Chen Hui hurriedly returned to the company with everyone.

"What's going on? How could a cheat appear in our Heroes of the Storm so quickly?"

Chen Hui's face was ashen.

He has been with Shanda for so many years, so he naturally knows the dangers of cheating.

Even Shanda has an endless series of cheats.

However, although they know that it is technically impossible to block plug-ins.

But it’s only the first day of closed beta testing for Heroes of the Storm without deleting files. How could there be a plug-in?

No matter how talented they are, they can't make a cheat in such a short time.

"Mr. Chen, this is the one."

The technician opened this plug-in and said: "This storm plug-in is said to be spread from major guilds. However, the function of this plug-in is not destructive, it is only auxiliary, and it is very popular among players. .”

"Those who are of an auxiliary nature cannot be retained and must be blocked."

Chen Hui knew the dangers of cheats. If he left them alone, there would be endless troubles.

"By the way, have you found out who made the plug-in?"

"It has not been found out yet."

"No need to check. Accounts that use this plug-in will be banned for 24 hours."

It is basically impossible to find out who made this plug-in.

Those who can create plug-ins are experts, and they will definitely not be able to find any evidence for you.

In fact, Chen Hui didn't need to check.

Being able to create a plug-in in such a short period of time is definitely a competitor to Blizzard.

So, Blizzard’s most direct competitor at present is Huanyu Technology.

Only Huanyu Technology has such large resources and capabilities to produce plug-ins in such a short period of time.

Of course, this operation is also normal.

Major companies have attacked each other in this way countless times.

"Chen Hui, what's going on?"

He probably also learned that there was a problem in the company. Allen, who was already off work, called Chen Hui: "I heard that there is a problem with the game?"

"Mr. Allen, there is no problem with our game. The main problem is that there is a plug-in."

"Plug-in?"

Allen was stunned for a moment, but then he understood: "Are they those auxiliary applets?"

"You can say that, but it is definitely not as simple as an auxiliary applet. Mr. Allen, don't worry, I have issued an order to ban the accounts that use these plug-ins for 24 hours."

"title?"

Allen shook his head: "You can't block your account."

"Chen Hui, we started to ban accounts just after the closed beta. This has a great impact on our Heroes of the Storm."

"Mr. Allen, I know this will have a certain impact. But if these accounts are not dealt with decisively, then such plug-in software will spread wildly, and everyone will use plug-ins by then."

"Didn't you just say that he was just an auxiliary applet?"

"Mr. Allen, he is currently an auxiliary applet, but in the future he may develop some functions that disrupt the balance of the system."

"Then after they develop such a function, it won't be too late for us to ban the account."

"Mr. Allen, when that happens, our game will be over."

Chen Hui was so angry that Allen vomited blood.

He didn't expect that.

Why doesn't Allen take this kind of plug-in seriously at all in any domestic game company?

However, when he thought that Allen had been doing stand-alone games before, he suddenly understood.

Although Blizzard is great at making games, they didn’t launch their first online game, World of Warcraft, until 2004.

Moreover, World of Warcraft is mostly operated as an agent for other game companies, and they always get a share.

Therefore, they don't know much about such plug-ins at all.

in addition.

It is also impossible for agencies to share their operational experience with Blizzard.

This also leads to the fact that Blizzard's operations in online games are actually very average.

It's just that they think they have strong game production capabilities, and they always think they are awesome.

"Chen Hui, the matter is not that serious. You know, when we were doing World of Warcraft and StarCraft, we actually had some official auxiliary small programs for players to use."

"However, that is a stand-alone game. Using auxiliary mini-games in a stand-alone game will not destroy the balance of the game. Even if it does, it will only be played by one person. But online games are different. Once such auxiliary mini-games are used, in the future we will The game will be killed by these plug-ins."

"No, no, no, Chen Hui, I think stand-alone games and online games are the same. There is no essential difference between them. Sometimes you know that many operations are boring, and many novices don't How to understand the game, so it is not very convenient to get started. If there is such an auxiliary applet, not only will it not destroy the game, but it will also promote our Heroes of the Storm."

"I……"

"Chen Hui, let me ask you again, how many people are using such auxiliary mini programs now?"

"Probably around 50,000 people."

"God, are you going to block 50,000 accounts at once?"

On the first day of Heroes of the Storm, there were only 300,000 people online at the same time. With a direct ban, 50,000 people would be gone.

This could cost him his life.

Allen would not agree to anything.

"Mr. Allen, I don't know what you understand by cheating. But in China, cheating is harmful but useless. A series of games have been ruined by cheating. The most classic one is when Huanyu Technology used cheating to directly Killed a popular online game."

"Is this happening?"

"Yes, when Huanyu Technology was not so powerful, their opponent was Penguin."

“Which company is Penguin?”

"This company was engaged in instant messaging at the time, but Huanyu Technology not only snatched Penguin's instant messaging, but also completely knocked them out of the online game field."

"Wait a minute, I'll be at the company now."

Seeing Chen Hui's determination, Allen also knew that the matter was urgent.

Half an hour later, Allen returned to the company.

Chen Hui spoke sincerely.

Although Allen is still somewhat reluctant to close his account, after all, Chen Hui has been running online games for many years. At the same time, he gave a series of examples, thought for a while and said: "Blocking 50,000 accounts at once is too much. Let's try blocking 5,000 accounts first."

"It is possible to block 5,000 first, but the effect is not particularly obvious."

"But blocking 50,000 accounts at one time will put a huge pressure on our popularity. You also know that we spent more than 100 million yuan to get these 300,000 people. Blocking 50,000 accounts at one time, This is equivalent to us spending more than 20 million yuan."

"this……"

Chen Hui is only the vice president, and Allen is the president.

Under Allen's pressure, Chen Hui had no choice but to listen to Allen's advice and first blocked 5,000 accounts for 24 hours.

In fact, Chen Hui feels that if we really need to do something more thorough, it won't be a 24-hour lockdown at all.

Like Huanyu Technology, if it detects that a user has used a plug-in, it will directly ban you permanently.

Although Chen Hui also wanted to do this, he also did not have the determination.

In fact, only Huanyu Technology has the guts to permanently ban a cheat as soon as it is detected.

Some other companies do not have this courage.

Of course, it's not that they don't want to.

Other game companies would never dream of banning him permanently as soon as he comes.

However, in addition to Huanyu Technology, some other game companies made such a move and soon suffered a boycott from countless players.

This is related to the game ecology.

Huanyu Technology has been promoting good gaming behavior since the beginning of online games.

Including not using plug-ins, not swearing, playing games actively...etc.

Once you use a plug-in, or even scold someone, if you don't play the game properly and don't use Huanyu Technology to operate it yourself, a lot of players will scold you to death.

Such an ecology cannot be created in a day or two.

Since it has not been done, then if you permanently ban your account, it will have endless consequences.

There was no way, Allen didn't agree, Chen Hui could only follow Allen's instructions.

Moreover, under Allen's instructions, none of the 5,000 accounts blocked this time had any recharge.

That is to say.

As long as it is recharged, it will not be suspended for the time being.

This operation is also normal.

The customer is God.

Only players who have actually deposited money are real players.

The accounts that need to be closed are those players who have not recharged their money.

If even those players who have paid money are banned, how can Blizzard still make money?

In Allen's eyes, are players who don't spend money real gamers?

To know.

Prior to this, players had to spend money on any game that Blizzard launched.

Even the previous World of Warcraft was charged with point cards.

If it weren't for the desire to open up the Chinese market, Allen and Mike would have almost defined Heroes of the Storm as a paid game.

…

It has to be said that Blizzard acted decisively and immediately blocked 5,000 accounts, which was more or less useful in combating cheaters.

Many players are afraid of using plug-ins for fear of having their accounts blocked.

only.

Because it leaves a way out for top-up players, cheats continue to spread.

This also caused Blizzard to directly give players a hint.
