The CPL in 2003 had a total of five competitions. In addition to the three main events (Counter-Strike is Half-Life, Warcraft, and StarCraft), there were two games, Halo and Serious Sam.
Among them, the counter-strike project bonus reached 30 US dollars, which is the highest single bonus in the history of e-sports!
They are going to compete with WCG for attention. Obviously, for any competition, the more attention and influence the better, because it means that the sponsors will keep rushing to give you money.
If no one watches a game, there will definitely be no advertising revenue, and there will be no high-level players to participate in the game.
In fact, with regard to CPL, Facebook has discussed internally whether it should also acquire it by the way, or cancel the authorization of several games to it.
After discussion, everyone thought it would be better to keep it, because the CPL competition is before the WCG, so it is right for the players to warm up and create momentum for the WCG.
Moreover, this competition does not pose any threat to WCG at all. When the bonus amount of WCG increases, everyone will understand that this is not a competition of the same level at all!
…………
On October [-]st, the Facebook game platform, Half-Life, Warcraft, and StarCraft released new patches at the same time, announcing the official launch of limited edition game skins, and gift boxes can be purchased through the store in the Facebook game platform.
By opening the box, you can get various 2003WCG limited edition skins. The price of the box is not expensive. In economically developed countries such as Europe and the United States, the price of a box is only one dollar.In developing countries, such as the mainland, Africa, etc., a box only costs [-] US dollars.
And the Facebook game is very conscientious, as long as you open the box, you will definitely get a skin, never lie to Krypton!
This year's limited skin theme is "Oriental Dragon".
The skin forms of the three games are also different. Warcraft and StarCraft are relatively simple, because the number of players of these two games is incomparable with Half-Life, so Facebook Games did not spend too much on these two games energy.
In StarCraft, a limited flag is added, which will be erected on top of your main base in the game. By opening the box, you can open several flags of different colors, such as black dragon, white dragon, red dragon, blue dragon, etc. Among them is the rarest golden dragon!
Warcraft has the same skin as StarCraft, and they are all limited edition flags, and the colors are also the same.
Because after Effie and the others' analysis, these two games have little potential for krypton gold, so there is no need to make it too complicated.The main base is the most conspicuous place in these two games and often appears in the camera, so it is more eye-catching to put a flag here, presumably players will buy it.
The main force of krypton gold this time is of course Half-Life!
Because Half-Life has the largest number of players, and is currently the most popular, most influential, and most watched game!
So Half-Life's limited skin is more complicated, mainly the gun skin, because in this game, guns are the most concerned thing.
And there are several guns that are particularly popular among players, such as the Desert Eagle, AK, M4, and AWP, which are definitely the favorites of every player.
There are many things that can be opened in the limited skin box of Half-Life, and the skins of various guns may appear. Of course, the rarest golden dragon skin is still the most difficult to open.
…………
Facebook Games specifically pointed out that this time the "Oriental Dragon" theme skin will be permanently offline by the end of this year's finals.And all the income from box sales, Facebook Games will not take a cent, half of it will be used for WCG competition prize money, and the other half will be donated to Project Hope!
Chapter 653 Krypton Gold Can Get Stronger
This update of the Facebook game has shocked many colleagues.
Can you still play like this?
The "unprecedented generous bonus" announced two days before the relationship is to rely on the players to pay for it!
The problem is, this thing...
Will players buy it!
Just for a flag, a gun skin, as long as one dollar, players will be interested?
However, this is a new money-making model. Whether it can be successful or not, everyone is waiting to see.
…………
Colleagues still have doubts about this model, but players don't think so much.
When the box opening event page was launched, countless players around the world clicked on the event page through the Facebook game platform.
"OH, MY GOD!"
"Amazing!"
"It's so pretty!"
"I want to buy, buy, buy!"
Countless players exclaimed when they saw the skin pattern on the page.
One dollar or half a dollar, even in [-], was not considered a lot of money, and many people could afford to spend such a small amount of money for a beloved game.
What's more, the Facebook game has been announced, and the skin sales will not keep a cent, and all will be used to hold competitions and public welfare activities!
Then the players will be even less resistant, and they have found a perfect excuse for their consumption. I am not spending money indiscriminately, but doing charity!
Look at the propaganda page, how pitiful are the children in those mountainous areas, the dilapidated classrooms are leaking everywhere, and children aged six or seven have to walk more than ten miles of mountain roads to study, and carry a bottle of water and two steamed buns on their backs. This is lunch.
Hey, every time I buy a box, I contribute a nutritious lunch for the children.
Then why hesitate, buy it!
At the top of the limited skin event page, there is an eye-catching instant statistics. When a player buys a box, this number will change immediately.
In other words, the number of boxes purchased by players around the world will be displayed on the page in real time, and everyone can see it.
The event was just launched, and after less than a minute of silence, the statistics on the top of the page suddenly changed, jumping directly from "1" to "0"!
Nearly one hundred thousand dollars!

"Mom, give me ten yuan." Minmin, 16, said to his mother in an ordinary residential area in Modu City.
"Why do you want money again? Are you going to secretly buy games again? Let me tell you, you are in the second year of high school this year, and the third year of high school will be followed by the college entrance examination. I know that I play computer all day, and the computer bought for you at home is for you to study. , As a result, except for games, you can't even type well." Mom scolded, rolling her eyes.
If it was normal, Minmin would have shrunk his neck and avoided it, and his mother's temper would not be easy to provoke.
But today, he is confident and unflinching, "No! I want to do charity!"
Mom was surprised now, what the hell?Does your son know how to do charity?
She didn't believe it at all, because even if she did charity, it wouldn't be the turn of a high school student like her son.
"Don't lie to me. My mother is not stupid. Let me see what kind of charity it is." She said vigilantly.
Minmin took his mother's arm, "Come here, I'll let you see if it's charity."
The two walked into Minmin's room, the computer on the desk was turned on, and what was displayed on the computer screen was the limited skin activity of this Facebook.
Of course, some minmin did not show the skin to my mother, but showed her the part about the Hope Project in the second half.
