The download rate has increased by 40%. How did "Douluo Dalu: Soul Master Duel" do it?

When users use mobile applications, there are many file transfer scenarios, such as file sending, cloud disk backup, video caching, application downloading and updating. In the mobile game industry, high-quality 3D modeling and rich scenes have become important factors to attract players. With the continuous improvement of game quality, game packages have gradually become larger and larger, because there are still many players who do not have long-term The download conditions of large traffic, the size of the first package will affect the new pull effect of the game, and each version update will inevitably lead to the loss of users.

How to improve the downloading experience of game resource packs has become a concern of many developers. A more common practice in the industry is to download the game by sub-package. The first download of a game by a user only contains the main part of the game and novice map resources. As the player gradually grows Constantly updating resource files such as maps and copies. This partly solves the problem of the size of the first package, but at the same time it brings a new problem. The user updates during the process of playing with higher requirements for download speed and stability.

How to improve the speed and success rate of downloading game resource files, reduce the long waiting time of users, and improve the experience?

HMS Core helps high-speed transfer of game files

Network Kit launched by HMS Core in the field of connection and communication has carried out a large number of download optimizations for file transfer scenarios. It makes full use of network bandwidth through technologies including intelligent fragmentation, weak network detection, network abnormal retry, and interrupted transmission. , Improve download speed, suitable for weak network links, high-speed mobile links and high-density congestion environments.

Intelligent fragmentation technology : divide a large file into multiple fragments, and each thread is responsible for the download of one or several fragments. Multi-threaded parallel download can increase the download speed;

Weak network detection function : Through machine learning capabilities, a large amount of measured data is modeled, and the optimal fragmentation value is accurately predicted according to the current equipment operating status and network environment status, so that parallel downloads can achieve a relatively balanced and stable effect;

Network abnormal retry : When the terminal is moving, it will inevitably enter scenes such as elevators and underground garages, and the equipment will be in a state of no network for a short time. Abnormal network retry can quickly resume the previous download task, and it can also ensure that the downloaded resources will not be downloaded repeatedly, which can save a lot of time and network resources;

breakpoint resume function : In the case of network jitter and abnormal process killing, Network Kit supports memory-level and process-level multi-level breakpoint resume function, the download process will save the progress information, can be downloaded progress Continue to download on the basis of the download without repeating the downloaded part before the exception.

Network Kit Sanqi Mutual Entertainment high-speed download

Sanqi Mutual Entertainment’s latest masterpiece "Douluo Dalu: Soul Master Showdown" uses high-precision character drawing and 3D modeling, and a large number of original animation voice actors and other materials in order to show players an authentic Douluo Dalu in all directions. The size of the resource pack was once increased to the gigabyte level. After integrating Network Kit, the download rate of game resource packs has increased by an average of 40%, and the success rate has increased significantly.

At the same time, in the scene while playing, the high-speed download causes the delay of the player's operation instructions to increase, triggering the contradiction between the high-speed download and the player's operation on the occupation of network resources. Through scene analysis, Network Kit can set the speed limit interface and set the upper limit of the speed for the background download scene, thus ensuring the network resources operated by the player and meeting different download requirements.
