Chapter 1215: Something Went Wrong!

Chapter 1215: Something Went Wrong!

Pei Qian and Meng Chang were naturally paying attention to Eternal Reincarnation after it was officially released.

Of course, one of them was in the advertising and marketing department while the other was in his office.

They were all surprised by the discussion online, but there was a huge difference in the points they were surprised about.

Meng Chang sat at his desk in the advertising and marketing department and scratched his head in confusion.

“What… is happening?”

“Didn’t you say that you would only update the combat system in the last week?”

“The automatic block settings of the demon sword should be part of the combat system, right? Why did it appear now?”

“No, I have to look for Yu Fei!”

Meng Chang could not sit still.

Obviously, this automatic block would disrupt his plan to a certain extent after it was released!

In fact, Meng Chang’s original publicity plan was very simple. It was still the standard application of the Pei family’s publicity method: “praise”, “suppress”, “praise”.

First, through the overwhelming advertisements, the popularity of Eternal Reincarnation was hyped up while burning money. It made everyone feel that it was a large downloadable content that was comparable to Repent and be Saved’s main body and had made a huge innovation in the gameplay. It naturally buried some black seeds while accumulating a lot of attention.

Right on the heels of that, he divided the entire content of Eternal Reincarnation into four parts. The first three parts would be to update the new map of the game, the new monsters, and finally the key to the combat system. He would string all the previous content together.

The entire game of Eternal Reincarnation was about the same length and size as Repent and be Saved, but the scenes and monsters inside were all modified from the original materials. It was very easy for players to feel like they were ‘changing skin’.

And ‘changing skin’ could often be equivalent to ‘patronizing’.

In the first week, players’ dissatisfaction might not be so high. They were still looking forward to the rest of the content.

In the second and third weeks, gamers would find that everything was the same. They would definitely lose control of their emotions.

What’s more, even without updating the combat system, the overall stats of the monsters and bosses on the map had been raised.

Initially, Repent and be Saved’s stats had already reached the maximum that players could afford. Now that the stats had been raised again, players would find it difficult to have fun without the support of the new combat system.

It might even cause some hardcore and loyal gamers to go against ordinary gamers. For example, hardcore gamers would mock ordinary gamers for being too lousy and not worthy of playing. Ordinary gamers would vent their anger on the game Eternal Reincarnation.

This way, controversies about Eternal Reincarnation would definitely accumulate.

In the last week, players would suddenly realize that Eternal Reincarnation was not a simple change in appearance after updating the new combat system. This combat system really had the power to turn something rotten into something magical. It made it completely different from Repent and be Saved!

At that time, Meng Chang had already obtained a high commission. He would leave after things were done and hide his identity.

After that, all the popularity and praises for the game were left to Boss Pei.

Of course, Teacher Qiao and Young Master Tian’s interpretation of the game could not be missing. For example, the setting of the demon sword, the improvement of the new combat system, the various changes in the plot, and so on.

Meng Chang originally thought that his plan was perfect. However, he never expected that something would go wrong the first week it was released!

Wouldn’t it be equivalent to hinting to gamers that there was a brand new combat mechanism in the game if the demon sword was exposed immediately?

How could he accumulate the players’ dissatisfaction then?

Would the combat system be that amazing when it was updated?

If players firmly believed that Eternal Reincarnation would definitely not disappoint them, and even found more suspense in the process of constantly digging the game’s content, and thus maintain their expectations for this downloadable content…

In that case, Meng Chang could forget about getting a commission. Even if he did, it would definitely not be much.

Therefore, Meng Chang was very anxious.

He immediately stood up and prepared to make a trip to Tengda Games to ask Yu Fei what was going on. At the same time, he wanted to think if there was any way to remedy the situation.

…

The advertising and marketing department and Tengda Games department were both at Shenhua View. Meng Chang arrived very quickly.

He went straight to Yu Fei, who was working, and explained his intention.

“Huh? Demon sword?” Yu Fei scratched his head in surprise.

Obviously, he did not understand the relevant situation.

“Wait a moment, I’ll ask the designer in charge.”

Yu Fei did not dare to be negligent and immediately got up to check.

After all, Yu Fei had patted his chest and guaranteed that he would definitely cooperate with Meng Chang’s publicity work. In the end, something went wrong in the first week. That made him very embarrassed.

After about ten minutes, Yu Fei finally checked the situation and returned.

“I’m really sorry!”

“It’s like this, Brother Meng. When I was working on the updating plan and dissecting the game’s content, I only wrote about putting the combat system part in the final update.”

“However, something went wrong during the specific execution. The automatic block mechanism of the demon sword was a relatively independent lower-level design when it was created. Therefore, the colleague in charge of disassembling the game forgot to disassemble it. After all, this was not written in detail in my plan…”

“Brother Meng, what do you think we should do?”

Yu Fei’s face was riddled with guilt.

He had only been the chief planner for a month. At first, he had thought that this job was quite easy. He had not expected to get into trouble after coming up with a slightly bigger plan!

Strictly speaking, this was indeed his responsibility as the chief designer.

That was because there was more work for the designers below. They would definitely strictly follow his plan when completing the task. As the chief designer, Yu Fei should have realized the speciality of the automatic block mechanism of the demon sword immediately. He should have written the way to deal with this mechanism in the plan alone. That way, the current situation would not have happened.

As the chief designer, he naturally had to bear the responsibility with the people below since he did not write the scenario down. In fact, he should be the main responsibility.

Meng Chang could not help but hold his forehead.

That was a little troublesome!

It was not easy for him to blame Yu Fei for this. That was because Yu Fei was only the temporary chief planner. He had been writing novels before and took the job temporarily for half a month. It was obviously a little difficult for him to do all the work as perfectly as Hu Xianbin. Secondly, Yu Fei had shown this plan to Meng Chang. Meng Chang had not realized the problem with the automatic block mechanism of the demon sword at that time.

How can you blame others if he himself could not discern it?

He could only say that the automatic block mechanism of the demon sword was a very hidden mechanism. Everyone subconsciously thought that even if this hidden mechanism was discovered by players, it would only be a matter of time after the game was completely released. Thus, they did not pay much attention to it.

Thus, the current situation happened.

Meng Chang was a little conflicted. How should he deal with the current situation?

Update the game and remove the automatic block mechanism of the demon sword?

It was possible, but how could he explain it to players?

If he did not admit that this was a game mechanism and said that it was a bug, he would be lying through his teeth. Players were not stupid and would not believe him. If he admitted that this was a game mechanism and was released wrongly, it would not only be embarrassing, but it would also make Tengda Games’ internal management chaotic. The most important thing was that the new combat system had been exposed in advance.

Once players knew about the game’s combat mechanism in advance, Meng Chang’s commission would basically be greatly reduced. He would not be able to get it.

Therefore, Meng Chang’s idea was to try his best to hide this matter.

However, he had no idea how to hide it for now.

At that moment, Meng Chang’s cell phone vibrated.

He took out his cell phone and took a look. Then, he said to Yu Fei, “…I’ll go to Boss Pei first.”

“Since it has already happened, you don’t have to worry. We’ll continue discussing countermeasures later.”

Yu Fei returned to his desk, feeling restless and apprehensive as he watched Meng Chang leave in a hurry.

“Why don’t you take this opportunity to replace me? I don’t want to be the chief planner anymore.”

…

At the same time, Pei Qian was in his own office, running around in circles anxiously while cursing in his heart.

He had not expected things to turn out this way!

He did not ask about Eternal Reincarnation’s publicity plan at all.

On one hand, it was because he trusted Meng Chang very much. He felt that the commission he received last month was a reflection of his strength. Even though the gaming platform was revived because of “Young Master Tian”, that was an accident and not Meng Chang’s fault.

On the other hand, it was because he did not have much expectations for Eternal Reincarnation. He would probably earn money but it was alright as long as he did not earn too much.

Thus, no matter what the publicity plan looked like, Pei Qian felt that it was acceptable as long as it was not too popular.

In any case, Meng Chang was the one who did not get a commission when it became popular. Pei Qian was not the most unlucky. What was there to feel bad about?

However, after updating a quarter of the content, the automatic block mechanism of the demon sword was exposed. That was completely unacceptable!

As Pei Qian’s exclusive cheat tool, he had hoped that gamers would never be able to find the demon sword. They would only be able to suffer in the game.

After all, the original intention of such a difficult combat system was to dissuade players.

However, the combat system had not been played yet. The method to cheat had been exposed first. How could he dissuade them?

He heard a knock on his office door just as he was feeling frustrated.

Meng Chang arrived.

Pei Qian went straight to the point. “How did the mechanism of this demon sword be exposed so quickly? Is this part of your publicity plan?”

Meng Chang coughed awkwardly. “Boss Pei, I’m sorry. This is my mistake!”

“The thing is…”

He explained in detail the problem of his communication mistake with Yu Fei, causing the demon sword’s block mechanism to be updated wrongly.

Pei Qian fell silent.

He immediately understood what was going on.

In order to prevent gamers from finding the demon sword and achieve the effect of darkness under the lamp, Pei Qian had put in a lot of effort to arrange three layers of insurance.

The damage of the demon sword’s weapon was completely lower than other weapons. Moreover, it could not be automatically blocked under dual mode. Players would be able to obtain a demon weapon after killing the ghostly soldiers on the Road to the Underworld. They would definitely replace the demon sword.

There was a limit to the number of bewitched points at every game stage. It was impossible to trigger an automatic block even if one died many times in the early stages. At most, they would make an imperfect block action under extremely coincidental circumstances. However, it was not 100% immune. They would still die if they deserved to die.

Even if the big boss wanted to clear the game with a low damage weapon, he would not die many times because he had already mastered the combat mechanism. Naturally, he would not trigger the automatic block mechanism.

However, these three levels of insurance had been messed up because of Meng Chang’s new strategy!
