nA New Game Is Going to Be Released to Calm the Players

nSince the system was efficient, it didn’t take long for the new patch to be installed. Su Ping uploaded it to Steam and reminded the players to download the patch.

nSu Ping even set up a system check to force the players to upgrade the game to the latest version.

nPlayers couldn’t continue playing the game once they were using another version.

nThe announcement would be effective the next day!

nAs soon as the game announcement was made, Su Ping received a lot of invectives and condemnation, as expected.

nThe players never expected Su Ping to add an invisible wall to the game!

nThe players’ range of activity was drastically reduced, which prevented them from engaging in many activities.

nPreviously, some players had discovered the airport near Raccoon City and desired to take a faster plane to travel further in the game.

nBut now, it was impossible to do it.

nProducer, are you divorced? Why are you doing such a meaningless thing? Are you nuts!

nThis is a fraud! No matter how well the game is made, I’m now anti-Zombie Apocalypse. Producer, hurry up and correct your mistake! Otherwise, I’m going to report you!

nBrothers, let’s give the game one star! We can’t let this go. Otherwise, the producer will simply change the game contents in the future!

nOther than the angry players, some game development companies saw an opportunity and hired internet trolls to intensify the situation.

nFinally, the internet trolls and the angry players caused the troll to go out of control.

nThe Zombie Apocalypse II comment section, which had previously been filled with supportive remarks, was overrun with hostile comments and many people who purposefully gave the game low marks, which caused the game’s ratings to fall.

nWise men could tell that the internet trolls caused the situation. However, Su Ping displeased the players by adding an invisible wall.

nNaturally, nobody would speak up for Su Ping. They even hoped the internet trolls would charge forward to force Su Ping to cancel the invisible wall.

n“Su Ping, have you seen the situation online? The game’s rating has already dropped by three points. If the ratings continue to drop, it will have a huge impact on the game’s reputation!”

n“We can’t go on like this. Do you need me to help you say something during the live stream?”

n“My fans are rational. I’ve been trying to calm down the emotional fans. I believe everyone will understand you.”

nWhen public opinion was getting worse, Angelica took the initiative to talk to Su Ping about the matter and was willing to speak up for him.

nSu Ping felt warm and knew Angelica was a person who was willing to express her gratitude.

nAlthough they were only partners in promoting his game initially, Angelica had gained significant traffic and fans through Zombie Apocalypse.

nAfter thinking for a while, Su Ping shook his head.

n“It’s alright. You don’t have to do that. I caused the situation to happen. After all, I’m the game’s producer. I’ll think of a way to settle this.”

n“And I have thought of a pretty good idea!”

nUpon hearing Su Ping’s words, Angelica asked curiously.

n“What is it? Can you give me some hints? So that I can be at ease!”

nSu Ping smiled.

n“Haha! Do you remember the players asking me to release Zombie Apocalypse III quickly?”

nAs soon as he said that, Angelica became excited.

nShe immediately asked.

n“What?! Have you finished producing Zombie Apocalypse III? The speed of production is way too fast! Zombie Apocalypse II has just been released!”

nSu Ping said while shaking his head.

n“Who says I’m going to release Zombie Apocalypse III? I never promised the next game would be a Zombie Apocalypse series!”

nMeanwhile, Angelica was holding her breath, and her heart was beating faster.

nAngelica thought, “A new game?”

n“Is Su Ping able to create a new IP when producing the Zombie Apocalypse series?”

n“Is he making these games all by himself?”

n“It’s terrifying!”

nAngelica couldn’t imagine how powerful Su Ping’s strength was to complete such a massive workload. Even leading game development companies couldn’t make it!

n“Alright, since you’ve said so, I’m relieved. I believe that you’ll handle the situation perfectly.”

n“Same old rules. If you release a new game, you must let me play it as soon as possible!”

n“It’s a deal!”

nSu Ping hung up the phone.

nSu Ping immediately opened the forum and logged into his account. He began to write a new post.

nAt the moment, Su Ping’s forum account was bombarded with countless private messages.

nMost of the comments were aggressive against Su Ping. There were only a few fans who were calm.

nSu Ping wasn’t in the mood to look at the aggressive comments. After all, looking at the comments wouldn’t help solve the situation.

nSu Ping posted a new announcement to stop the players from cursing him.

n“Hello, everyone. I’m Su Ping, the game producer for the Zombie Apocalypse series.

nRecently, I’ve received a lot of feedback from the players. I’ve realized that I’ve had many problems with my work.

nI clearly understand that everyone is looking forward to the new game.

nThat’s why I’m bringing you the latest information on the latest games. I hope everyone will be satisfied and have high hopes for the future!”

nThe post gradually made its way into the critical content.

n“I’m here to tell you that Zombie Apocalypse III is in smooth production. It should be able to be released soon.

nBesides that, there’s a new game in the middle of production, and it’s almost finished.

nThe production of the new game started a little later than Zombie Apocalypse II, so it is expected to be released before Zombie Apocalypse III!

nMost importantly, the new game is also free. You don’t have to spend a single bit to get a complete gaming experience. Only the skins and items in the game store need to be paid for, but it doesn’t affect the gaming experience!

nHere is the latest update. I hope everyone can understand me. After all, I’m just an independent game producer.

nLastly, I hope everyone will like my new game and continue to support my creation!

nYour support will be my greatest motivation for creating games!

nThank you for your understanding!

nSee you in the next game!”

nAfter Su Ping finished editing, he carefully read and checked the post’s content from the beginning to the end. Then he nodded in satisfaction.

nAfterward, he clicked send!

nSu Ping could imagine the players’ heated discussions when they saw the post!

nUnder the temptation of the new game, what was the matter with the previous problem?
