Chapter 63: NetDragon l s Declaration

Translator: 549690339

Yesterday, in order to avoid the heat of the new game and the console’s release from Cloud Dream, NetDragon had agreed on a countermeasure but didn’t make any announcements.

It wasn’t until this morning that they officially released a statement.

“Dear players,

Firstly, we sincerely apologize to you. Prior to the game’s release, we didn’t adequately showcase the game, which resulted in you not having enough information before deciding to purchase. We should have paid more attention to the game’s disclosure and provided you with a better experience.

Next, we will optimize the overall gameplay experience and work tirelessly, putting in overtime to complete a large-scale DLC update, including the military depot battle and more content to meet the players’ urgent demand for the next stage of the game’s storyline as soon as possible.

We will make every effort to ensure that the DLC is completed within the next two months.

To express our apologies to the loyal players who purchased the game at the first opportunity, players who purchase “Blaze 3″ during the first week will be able to obtain the content-rich large-scale DLC for free in the future. Players who purchase within the first month will also receive a 50% discount.

Finally, we always hope that every player who purchases our game will leave satisfied.

Sincerely,

NetDragon Game Technology Co., Ltd.”

NetDragon’s announcement immediately received the response they expected, greatly alleviating players’ dissatisfaction.

“A large-scale DLC given away for free? Wow, they’re just giving red packets to all players?”

“According to NetDragon’s tradition, a large-scale DLC would cost at least 400, are they really not making a profit now?”

“Small-minded! Does NetDragon even care about this amount of money?”

“Buy, buy, buy, I’m going to tell my roommates to order now. At this price, buying it is a win!”

“Aren’t you afraid that your roommate will play to the end without solving the problem and poison you in the water dispenser at night?”

“Just kidding, if it comes to that, let them buy it but not play it. Wait for the DLC update to play it!”

“Good idea, buy it now, freeload the DLC, and play it in two months.”

“Are you the financial wizard?”

“That’s great, I just bought it and haven’t had a chance to play it yet. Seeing the reviews online, I was hesitating whether I should refund it or not, but now I don’t need to refund it, I can just wait for two months.”

“But in two months, can they guarantee the quality of the content-rich DLC? Or will it be just filler?”

“Joking, can NetDragon really be shameless? They must have called over other game production teams to work on it!”

In the office, Henry was pleasantly surprised to see the sales figures, which had almost stalled, starting to grow again!

When players found out they had a chance to freeload on the DLC, their dissatisfaction suddenly dissipated.

Apart from those who had already reached the ending and were still very

Angry the plavers who hadn’t vet been appoved easily forgave NetDragon-

Playing the game two months later wasn’t a big issue!

They even called their friends over to freeload on the game.

“Blaze 3” sales took off once again! Although it couldn’t compare to the sales during its initial release, it was already enough to make Henry overjoyed. However, at this time, the heat of “Blaze 3” on the internet had greatly decreased.

After all, everyone knew that the current game was an unfinished product, and if they wanted to play the complete story, they could wait for two months.

As a result, the discussion heat had dropped.

Now, the hottest and most-watched game title had once again returned to

“Traveler of the Wind.’

It was originally a game with near-perfect media ratings and an unprecedented public score of 9.8, but since only a few people had been playing it, the heat had mostly concentrated in a small number of live streaming rooms, and its discussion on the entire internet wasn’t high.

But now that 600,000 sets of Mirage are replenished, they sell out in the blink of an eye.

By now, as players receive their equipment one after another, the player group for “Traveler of the Wind” has expanded to 800,000.

This time, the popularity is no longer limited to just a few live broadcast rooms, and the public discussion heats up quickly.

The reopened experience stores are fully booked for the whole week.

Had it not been for the limit of booking at most a week, with the popularity of “Traveler of the Wind” right now, it could probably be fully booked for a whole year.

Even better, calculate the timing for hardcore players who play online 10 hours a day to clear the game in 2 days, and casual players who play 3 hours a day to clear the game in a week.

By the time next week’s 1.6 million sets of equipment are produced and sold, that’s precisely when a large number of players have actually cleared the game, and the final explosion of popularity occurs.

Perfect connection.

As for Lincoln, the process of signing up for driving school in the morning is unremarkable, with orderly registration, filling out information, physical examination, receiving materials, and meeting the coach.

As for encountering irresponsible, cheating instructors? It’s impossible, considering the money Lincoln is paying.

Last night, he had Mavis directly perform a multi-dimensional comprehensive comparison through big data to choose this driving school. In the selection criteria, the most important factors were reputation and distance, while price was not even included in the comparison.

To say this is the most expensive driving school in Xiajing City would be an exaggeration, but it definitely belongs to the type with very poor cost-performance. If we talk about student reputation, then it sits solidly within the top three in Xiajing City.

Is Lincoln short of money now? He has ten small targets that he can’t even spend!

After experiencing it, Lincoln feels that the money was well spent; the employees who collect money, perform physical examinations, and help process materials are all very good looking and have nice figures.

The only exception is the coach, who has a scruffy beard, a beer belly, and deep wrinkles on his forehead. He wears an old-fashioned yellow short shirt.

But you know what, this appearance is actually very trusted by the students.

Handsome men and beautiful women look great, but when it comes to teaching students how to practice driving, it can be difficult to gain their trust.

“This must be the price of having a high appearance value.” As Lincoln walks out of the driving school gate, he sighs to his sidekick Pengju, lamenting that he has lost the opportunity to be a driving instructor.

Hearing this, Pengju’s eyes twitch in annoyance.

After finishing the registration, Lincoln just took the materials and left. He will take the Subject One Exam directly next week.

He doesn’t really need driving practice. Not to mention being an experienced driver in his last life, even if he’s rusty now, he can practice in the virtual world.

With Mavis sitting in the co-driver’s seat giving real-time guidance, isn’t she much better than the scruffy-bearded uncle?

Anyway, the world of “Assassins’ Alliance” is becoming more and more abundant, and sports cars and such are no big deal.

The afternoon’s agenda is much more important.

Lincoln called Lorin that day, hoping to find out what qualifications were needed to set up an unmanned factory and what the general procedures were.

As a result, after Lorin learned about his needs, he suggested that Lincoln directly acquire an unmanned factory.

And he even had a ready-made recommendation for him.

According to Lorin, this factory is a military factory with many years of history and has made significant contributions during wartime. However, after the war ended, along with cease-fire arms reductions, the demand for military supplies greatly decreased, and many factories either transformed or went bankrupt.

The owner of this factory persisted for a long time and tried to transform multiple times, but all attempts were unsuccessful. He barely managed to maintain the status quo until now, finally resigned to his fate, and decided to transfer the factory.

Lincoln thought about it briefly and realized this would indeed be more convenient, so he asked for the owner’s contact information, had a brief phone conversation, and arranged to meet in person in the afternoon.

As soon as he arrives at the factory, Lincoln sees a middle-aged man waiting for him early outside.

The middle-aged man is wearing a somewhat old-fashioned suit and stands straight as an arrow. Some residual military bearing can be vaguely discerned as well.

His right arm, however, hangs empty, with the sleeve dangling in the breeze..
