Chapter 1326 IOI's Popularity Rises! And Falls!
At this moment, Pei Qian had just gotten out of bed.
He casually browsed the news and found that stocks and funds had been falling recently. Many people online were wailing, saying that they had lost several thousand or even tens of thousands of yuan at once.
"Good thing I don't understand any of this and never buy these things."
"People need to know themselves and not rashly enter fields they don't understand."
"Otherwise, losing tens of thousands of yuan at once would be so painful. It would be more painful than earning a million for the company."
Pei Qian couldn't help but give himself a thumbs up for his cleverness and wit.
After washing up, while waiting for his takeout, he went to various forums to check on the situation of the IOI World Championship.
Many players were discussing it on the forums. Some posts were from the past two days during the competition, and some were new posts from this morning, but the number was relatively small.
"The FV team is stirring things up again?"
"Those foreign teams have also started interacting!"
"After all, the FV team is popular now."
"Being popular is indeed right. Last week, they had a mishap in the group stage, and the popularity directly exploded at home and abroad. The post-match analysis programs of the European and American broadcasts almost used more than 70% of the time to discuss this game, discussing the weaknesses of the FV team..."
"No way, the impression left by last year's World Championship was too deep. They've always had a big devil persona. If other teams can win a game, shouldn't they boast about it?"
"The FV team should adjust as soon as possible. Finger Company is really shameless. This version update is too targeted! Stirring things up now is really worrying!"
"Hey, where does the heat come from if they don't stir things up? Everyone is low-key, and there's no gunpowder before the game, so it's not exciting."
"The organizers and other clubs are obviously cooperating. Haven't you noticed that the interaction between the clubs is increasing? And the promotional video of the organizers also shows that they seem to be trying to create a big devil persona for the FV team."
"Can they be so partial to iCL's team?"
"Partial? Don't be silly, this is to raise the villain very high first, so that the protagonist who wins the villain will be glorious enough, understand?"
"Understood... the official routine is deep!"
Since Pei Qian made that phone call, the FV team began to continue to play the excellent tradition of stirring things up, not only commenting on the games of other teams, but also interacting crazily with their opponents or other popular teams before and after their own games.
The organizers and other clubs are also very cooperative, obviously hyping the FV team.
In China, on Weibo and major forums, this trend can also be clearly seen.
But the domestic audience is also very smart and can see that this is not the official supporting the FV team.
The current situation can only be said to be unavoidable, because the FV team itself has a very high degree of attention and traffic because it was the champion last year, and the FV team is also very good at stirring things up and has a strong influence on foreign forums.
Want to avoid the FV team and support other European and American teams? It's a bit difficult.
Doing so is not only ineffective, but also exposes the motive too obviously.
So the IOI organizers actually adopted another more stable approach. On the surface, they openly recognized the FV team and gave them a lot of opportunities to show their faces, but in fact, once the FV team loses, the team that wins him can instantly steal all the heat.
At that time, the event organizers can use this heat to create gods, create enough topics, and transfer all this heat to themselves.
There's no way. The discussion of the IOI World Championship is a bit too low. It's a bit uncomfortable to be suppressed by the heat of the GOG Global Invitational Tournament. If they don't hype it up, they will silently enter the knockout stage.
Facts have proved that doing so does have a certain effect. The key is to see which team can finally win the championship.
Seeing this situation, Pei Qian breathed a sigh of relief.
Let's not talk about who wins the championship first, at least the heat of the IOI World Championship has risen.
What Pei Qian feared most was not that the FV team would win the championship, but that the heat of the IOI World Championship would always be lukewarm and would not pose a threat to GOG at all.
Choosing the lesser of two evils, if FV winning the championship again can take the IOI World Championship to fly, then it is also an acceptable result.
After flipping through a few more pages, he didn't see any new posts.
After all, IOI games are only played at night, and the discussion about yesterday's games is almost over. Now the popularity of the forum has obviously declined a lot.
However, just as Pei Qian was about to exit, he swiped a new post.
This new post was not discussing IOI games, but GOG!
"???"
Pei Qian instantly had an ominous premonition and hurriedly clicked in to take a look.
"GOG has updated the version and released a new viewing system that directly connects the game and the live broadcast platform. Although it is still a beta version, the players are already having a great time and are waiting for today's game. Alas, IOI is really not good at anything. This kind of thing is always one step slower than others. No wonder it has always been ridden on the head by GOG."
Soon, many people left messages.
"One step slower? Are you sure it's just one step slower? I think it would be good if IOI can make this function within half a year!"
"Connect the game client and the live broadcast platform? What's the use? Isn't it still watching the game?"
"Of course not. The details of the game are clear at a glance, and there is too much content to discuss! Not to mention anything else, the IOI game only releases a damage panel at the end. Other data, such as damage taken, healing, vision control, player skill points, and current experience, you can't see it, or you have to search for it on the website, right? Even some data can't be found on the website. But the GOG system allows you to directly spectate the game in the client, freely switch the camera, click on heroes to view attributes, you can see anything!"
"Wouldn't that mean you can't hear the commentary?"
"Do you think you can think of something others can't? It comes with a function that allows you to switch sources to listen to different commentators, or you can directly open the official live broadcast room in a pop-up window. It's simply two birds with one stone!"
"Sounds a bit like black technology!"
"What black technology is there? It is said that it is not a particularly sophisticated technology, but the conflicts of interest here are more complicated, and it is difficult for game companies and live broadcast platforms to reach cooperation."
"I think it also has something to do with the perfection of GOG's own spectator system. IOI seems to not pay much attention to this aspect. How many players have made suggestions, but they just won't change it. It's still so difficult to use!"
This post quickly received a large number of replies. While expressing envy, jealousy, and hatred, IOI players also had a bit of a feeling of hating iron for not becoming steel.
This emotion is very complicated. They should have been used to it for a long time, but they are still sour.
Does this function improve the viewing experience of the game?
Definitely.
Watching the game normally on the live broadcast platform can only follow the official OB's camera, and many details are inevitably ignored.
Many viewers who want to review the game can only watch the official recording over and over again, and the details that should not be seen are still not seen.
Including the time and skills of many wards, the details of the laning, and the influencing factors when each player makes a decision, it takes a lot of patience to dig out this information through official recordings.
But now GOG viewers can freely OB, see whatever they want, and all the information in the entire game is revealed.
More information will inevitably bring more topics and higher discussion.
There has never been a shortage of Antonie van Leeuwenhoeks among the audience. They are best at finding the key points that affect the trend of the game in very subtle places, and GOG's new function is undoubtedly equipping the Antonie van Leeuwenhoeks with a higher-definition microscope!
Many people are also discussing when this function was developed.
Some people say that this function must have been developed long ago, at least it has been preparing for several months, just to appear in the World Championship;
Others say that this function is not difficult in terms of current technology, not to mention that GOG has already done a very complete OB system in the game and left a good interface, so it can be made quickly with a surprise attack;
Others say that the development of this function itself is not the key. The key is to cooperate well with the live broadcast platform. The two sides must be of one mind and not tear each other apart, otherwise it is impossible to do it.
Pei Qian was also puzzled.
Yeah, when was this function made?
It seems that it has been preparing for a long time. Could it be that Chen Yufeng did it secretly?
Then his suffering trip was not wronged, and he even has to increase the amount!
As a result, just as he was browsing the post, the post disappeared.
It was deleted!
Obviously, the moderator saw that the popularity of this post was getting higher and higher, and the smell of gunpowder was getting heavier and heavier, so he deleted the post.
Because as the number of people discussing increased, many people naturally began to compare GOG and IOI, and scolded IOI. The two groups of people easily quarreled, making a mess.
The moderator also knew that there was no point in arguing about this matter. The key is that scolding Finger Company would not make this function come out, right? It's better to delete the post and let everyone continue to discuss the game and the competition.
This is also a helpless way. If everyone continues to discuss like this, is this forum an IOI forum or a GOG forum?
As a result, this is obviously meaningless, because everyone has run to other places to discuss!
Pei Qian was dizzy. He felt that the situation seemed a little wrong!
This is not a simple viewing system.
This viewing system allows the audience to see the detailed information in the game multiplied, which means that it will provide them with a lot of discussion material.
This will inevitably greatly increase the discussion heat of certain key games!
Because if you really want to look at it with a microscope, each player's performance can be made into several posts, the laning performance in the game, key team battles, etc., and can be made into several more posts.
In addition, many content creators can OB themselves to make post-match analysis videos, which will greatly promote the heat of the secondary dissemination of the event.
Another very important point is that this function is directly bound to Rabbit Tail Live, which is equivalent to all GOG clients having a Rabbit Tail Live platform built in!
If the heat of the GOG Global Invitational Tournament soars before, during, and after the event, wouldn't the heat that IOI has worked so hard to hype up be suppressed again?
