Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 684: Chapter 651: Combat Approaching the Endgame

In fact, the players making a fuss were not limited to these countries, and it didn’t just start now.

In reality, not long after the competition began, Polish players saw their faction being jointly slaughtered by Germany and Russia, and grabbed the first place in reverse. They were instantly outraged.

They directly questioned the fairness of the competition rules on European social networks, believing that this kind of “private alliance” seriously violated the principle of fair competition, and it was “despicable,” “shameful,” and “contemptible” behavior.

And they called for: “Cloud Dream should formulate more comprehensive rules, and if possible, reorganize the Peak War, so as to demonstrate the responsibility and commitment that a high-tech company with international influence should have.”

…

Some people spoke nicely, while some spoke harshly, saying a great deal.

But when translated, it was actually just three words-

“I don’t accept this.”

But honestly, the influence of Poland in Europe…

In their own view, they are the leading big brother of Eastern European countries, developing rapidly, and becoming more and more prosperous year by year. They should have a more critical voice in Europe, and there is nothing surprising about becoming the boss someday.

But in the eyes of the people of the old European powers like the United Kingdom, Germany, and France, when they think of Poland, the only thought is:

“Oh, I know this country.”

And that’s it.

Now that they have been eliminated at the speed of light and are wailing on social networks across Europe, apart from their own people, no one is responding to them.

They even find it annoying.

But their disregard not only failed to quell these “noises” but also intensified them.

Because half an hour later, French players joined the protest-

“[Peak War] rules have serious flaws, strongly call for a rematch!!!”

One hour later, the German and Russian players who had recovered from their stupefaction also joined in with dissatisfaction-

“The elimination of Poland was justified, and the nuclear bomb was not a problem, but the tsunami was too outrageous, right? How come there isn’t a rematch?”

Polish players: “???”

French players: “???”

German players/Russian players: “Is there a problem?”

Polish players: “…”

French players: “…”

With the phone lines being blown up and the online customer service having a queue of hundreds of thousands, this certainly couldn’t be hidden from Lincoln.

Jiang Feng, the chief planner of the [Peak War] event, quickly noticed the surging player opinions.

This made him feel uneasy, staring at his mobile phone, waiting for inquiries from Randall, or even the big boss Lincoln, and beginning to think about how to deal with the aftermath.

After all, he had never seen such a torrent of player opinions before…

But he was worried for nothing.

Randall had already gone to bed with his wife.

As for Lincoln, he was not angry at all. He was sitting on the small sofa on the bridge with Mavis, watching the competition together. Whenever they saw an outrageous scene, they would burst into laughter, completely free of Jiang Feng’s concern, and there were no thoughts of finding someone to take responsibility for it.

Of course, follow-up rectification work needed to be done, whether it was modifying the meteor algorithm, changing the terrain, or anything else.

This was part of their job, to begin with.

Even if the players had no reaction after the game, there would inevitably be many details that needed to be corrected.

Now, they just need to issue more announcements and then put these matters on the table.

Apart from that, there is no need for any additional actions, and there is no need to push someone out to take the blame.

As for the online customer service with a queue of hundreds of thousands of people and the phone customer service that is bound to be blown up after going to work tomorrow?

Listening to the players’ opinions is their job.

Even more bluntly, the existence of customer service in many game companies is not to help players solve problems but to be scolded by players.

They are paid for being scolded.

Cloud Dream’s previous reputation among players was too good, which might have given them the illusion that being a customer service in Cloud Dream would not be scolded.

But how could that be possible!

Now, take this as an early adaptation. After all, most of them don’t understand what the other side is saying.

-It’s the overseas players who are complaining, Daxia players are not complaining at all, they watch the live broadcasts laughing, and don’t feel that there are any problems at all.

It wasn’t because they hadn’t been eliminated yet, even if they were drowned by a tsunami, the eliminated players didn’t come out to scold Cloud Dream.

They were already used to it…

Now, not only were they watching the competition, they also took the time to pay attention to the wailing of overseas players, which they found more interesting than the ongoing competition.

They laughed while recalling their own experiences of angrily scolding Lincoln.

Compared to the spiritual impact when Little Milkshake suddenly died in front of them, these were just splashes of water…

However, something interesting happened on the field soon after.

Daxia players and Annan players bumped into each other.

Daxia players being scattered was already an hour ago, as the fire-hugging tactic began, the remaining factions on the field were getting fewer, and Daxia players gathered together one after another.

At this point, except for the recon soldiers who needed to reveal themselves, the rest needed to hide in order not to attract attention.

Where was the best place to hide?

Naturally, the forest.

Interestingly, Annan players thought the same way.

When both sides accidentally met, the Annan players were ecstatic.

Although they were caught off guard by the Indian players earlier, now it’s the right battlefield! They were all still wearing camouflage clothes and masks!

In this environment, they were full of confidence!

As for Daxia players, their tactics determined that they couldn’t appear in front of too many people, so the inevitable conflict was unavoidable.

The first action of both sides was not to shoot, but to turn off their flashlights simultaneously.

The continuous explosion of nuclear bombs filled the sky with dust clouds, coupled with the dense tree leaves covering, the entire forest was already very dark.

Now both sides extinguished their light sources.

A unique battle began.

…

Annan players entered the virtual world much later than Daxia, so many things were unknown to them.

Let’s not mention their ability to sneak through the forests and fight guerrilla warfare.

In the metropolitan era, there was a long-lasting trend of cold weapons in the virtual world.

It was due to Blade slashes the bullet by Xu Chun, and the [Assassin Bloodline] providing a huge bonus to players’ physical fitness and nerve reaction, which led to the trend.

At that time, heavy-duty players were all learning swordsmanship.

It wasn’t game skills, but they learned it bit by bit following videos, being “real skills”.

Now on the field, several professional club players had received Xu Chun’s expensive hands-on teaching.

Though becoming experts was impossible, they knew how to make the smoothest cuts, had no hesitation in swinging their swords, understood how to avoid the first strike and quickly counter-attack, which was enough to widen the gap in combat power!

As for these skills, overseas players never experienced them.

As for stealth abilities…

In the darkness, Annan players soon found that the situation was different from what they had imagined.

Previously in the underground caverns, they killed French and Ottoman Republic players as easily as killing chickens, without anyone discovering them.

But now… the situation had turned around!

Incautious players were instantly eliminated in the first wave of contact, only realizing the position of their opponents in the moment their chest was pierced or throat was cut.

After becoming more cautious, Annan players managed to avoid more serious losses and engaged in a more careful and dangerous battle with Daxia players.

Although this greatly prolonged the duration of the battle, it didn’t change their final outcome.

[T2 War Zone – Annan – Has Quit the Battlefield]

Only after completely leaving the battlefield did Annan players realize: The top 600 players with the highest winning rate selected from tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of players, were fundamentally different from the 600 players selected from several million players!-

In this encounter battle, those who actively stood at the forefront were the strongest and most outrageous among the remaining Daxia players.

If it was an ambush, they might have some hope.

But in a direct competition of strength like this, and voluntarily giving up hot weapons, there was simply no suspense!

The outcome was predetermined from the beginning.

And after Annan was also eliminated, there were only three factions left in the field.

[Peak War] officially entered its final stage.
