Game designer: I am making games, not charity

At twelve o'clock in the evening, Platinum Game Company "cs:go" released a new announcement on its official website.

Another: The number of global treasure chests opened will be announced in real time. Every time a treasure chest of 1000w is opened, 1000w of Daxia National Coin will be added to the prize pool of the "Looking for the Gunslinger" event]

After the announcement, the skin system and the new event prize pool were officially launched.

Because these two activities are completely independent of the game content, there is no need to stop the server for game updates.

Many players didn't know that Platinum Company had updated and maintained the game until they received the official email while playing the game.

For example, Xu Chong, who is playing competitive mode with eggplant.

After winning another game, he received an update log and reward email from the system.

Seeing what was written on the bulletin, Xu Chong also had some emotions in his heart.

In fact, after playing for three or four hours, he is already very familiar with the guns in the game.

The shapes of these firearms are all built according to the real shape.

However, after playing for so long, all the players hold the same guns, and the players will inevitably feel a little boring aesthetic fatigue.

In the earphones, the voice of eggplant came: "I mean, after winning the game, I will be rewarded with some boxes. The system prompts that they are all locked. It turns out that you need to go to the mall to buy a key to open it. Hey, this is the first time I bought a key. It only costs 1 yuan! The 1 yuan key pin does not poke! Brother, I will open a skin first, and then open it later.”

After talking, Eggplant clicked into the system mall, bought a key, and ran to open the box.

Xu Chong couldn't help but click into the system mall, glanced at the price of the key, the original price was 50 yuan, but the first time he bought it, it only cost 1 yuan.

It can be said that it is no different from giving away in vain.

Xu Chong naturally also bought a key, ready to open the box.

Because they have been fighting for several hours, no matter Xu Chong or Eggplant, they already have more than a dozen boxes in their backpacks, all of which can be opened.

Xu Chong chose a box at random and opened it.

After a while of the special effect of the key unlocking, it cuts to a horizontal roulette interface.

In this horizontal bar, there are various styles of weapon skins and accessory skins.

As the box was opened, the horizontal bar began to rotate. The pointer was fixed, and the horizontal bar was constantly rotating. As long as the horizontal bar stopped, the item pointed by the pointer would be the item that Xu Chong could get.

In the process of rotating the horizontal bar, you can also see that the borders of these different skins have different colors.

Generally speaking, it is blue, purple, and then red and gold.

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that golden skin must be the best.

At this time, when the horizontal bar in front of Xu Chong was about to stop turning, the pointer was within the range of a golden dagger.

However, the horizontal bar turned slightly, and finally stopped. The pointer happened to leave the position of the golden dagger, and pointed to a blue pistol skin next to it.

[Desert warbler (eagle), rusting flames, battle-tested. 】

Grade: Industrial grade.

Xu Chong smiled and shook his head helplessly. He almost got a golden dagger, but after all, the skin he got for only one yuan is not bad.

Look at the skin effect, the front muzzle of the pistol is white, the back is black, and there are some flame-like patterns in the middle, which looks really cool.

Fighting with this kind of skinned pistol is much more exciting than using the original gun.

At this time, the strange voice of eggplant came from the earphone: "Grass! Why didn't you open anything? Isn't my money wasted? Wdnmd, labor and management have opened all the boxes, I don't believe it can't be opened nice one."

Hearing this, Xu Chong couldn't help but smile.

It seems that eggplant's luck is still a bit bad.

Xu Chong himself is not going to open the box for the time being, one skin is enough, there is no need to spend too much money on this game, technology is more important.

Anyway, he had to wait for the eggplant to be unpacked, so Xu Chong simply opened the official website and forum to read it.

I want to see what skins other netizens have opened.

At this time, it had been 10 minutes since Platinum Games released the announcement, and there were already 10,000+ comments under that announcement.

"Looking for the gun god? The prize pool is 500 million? Awesome, the game is free, and this kind of competitive activity is also held, awesome, it feels like the game company Platinum is giving money to the players every time it makes a game."

"The buddy upstairs is a newcomer, right? Platinum is not a game company, it's a charity company that specializes in charity."

"Hehe, No.1 can get half of the prize pool, right? Then the owner of this 250 million is none other than me."

"Brother, your account information can see your game rank, "League of Legends" bronze five, "Dungeon and Fighter" arena entry level, "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" rank silver one???

The game has just launched the server, so in the 10 positioning matches, as long as you win one, you can be assigned to silver two. What the hell are you losing all 10 games?As far as your b technology is concerned, you still want 250w? "

"Brothers, Sawtooth Claw Stone and Gradient Marble have been listed on the skin trading platform of Platinum's official website, and they are only sold for 1888. Brothers, if you pick it up, you will earn money!"

"Holy shit, this skin is pretty cool. But, why don't you hang it on 18880? What 1888, grass Nima, cheating consumers."

"Brother, don't call, the capital of the golden dagger is five digits. This skin is a gradient color. It can only be regarded as a basic low price if it sells for 18880."

Browsing through the various comments under the announcement, Xu Chong also gradually understood the value and level of each skin in "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive".

The skin is divided into several grades such as white, light blue, dark blue, purple, pink purple, red, and gold.

Gold is of course the best.

Moreover, among the various golden skins, the price of the golden dagger was the highest.

There is no other reason, the dagger's explosion rate is too low, and there are only a few dozen people who can open the golden dagger in the world.

Therefore, the current price of the golden dagger is relatively high.

At this time, the eggplant on the earphone said weakly: "Brother, go on, wodtmd, I haven't developed a good skin yet, so I can only eat instant noodles this month."

Xu Chong smiled lightly, and continued the competition mode match with Eggplant.
