Delta posts $1.11 billion profit for third quarter and sees strong holiday bookings_我的网站

A |      8 月 25 日消息，据外媒 VGC 今天（25 日）报道，《漫威斗魂》开发商亚克系统承认，PC 版首发表现令人失望后，重新赢得玩家信任将“极具挑战”，并向受到影响的玩家表达歉意。

B |     Planes packed with summer travelers boosted Delta Air Lines to a $1.11 billion profit in the third quarter, and the carrier said Thursday that it expects revenue to keep rising into the holiday season.Profit was up 59% from a year earlier, as strong ticket sales — especially for premium seats and international flights — helped Delta shrug off higher labor costs.The Atlanta-based airline predicted ranges for fourth-quarter and full-year profit that mostly exceed Wall Street expectations.“I think we’re closing the year strong, and the holiday bookings that we see right now are pretty good,” CEO Ed Bastian said in an interview. “Domestic (travel) is solid, and international is really strong.”U.S. airlines are flying high as the travel recovery that began last year shows few signs of slowing down.Delta increased its passenger-carrying capacity an aggressive 16% and was able to fill all those extra seats. Travelers flew 64 billion miles on the airline in the quarter, a 17% increase, and they filled 88% of the seats on the average flight, a point higher than last summer.Revenue from ticket sales in the main cabin grew 12% — and 17% for premium seating. Money from Delta’s loyalty program soared 21%.The program, called SkyMiles, has become so popular that there are far more passengers hoping for upgrades to better seats than available seats. Lines can grow long at Delta lounges at busy airports like Atlanta and New York’s JFK.But when Delta announced changes to deal with the overcrowding last month — including basing elite frequent-flyer status purely on spending, and limiting lounge access for holders of Delta credit cards — the reaction from longtime customers was quick and brutal. Some vowed to switch airlines. Alaska Airlines and JetBlue fished for disgruntled Delta members by promising elite status in their programs. Even Bastian admitted the airline “ probably went too far.” Bastian has promised to modify the unpopular changes, but he hasn’t given any details yet.“We are working on that. We’ll be announcing something in the coming days,” Bastian said in the interview. He said he has received “a lot of feedback – everyone had their own ideas as to how we might restructure the program. Almost universally, people acknowledged that we needed to do something.” Delta's third-quarter profit, adjusted to exclude one-time items, was $2.03 per share, 8 cents better than forecast by analysts in a FactSet survey. Revenue rose 11% to $15.49 billion, also beating expectations.For the fourth quarter, Delta said revenue will rise as much as 11% from a year ago and it will earn between $1.05 to $1.30 per share. Analysts expected $1.09.The airline predicted that full-year profit will land between $6 and $6.25 per share after saying in June it would be at the top end of a $5-to-$6 range. The short-term outlook would be rosier if not for a recent pickup in jet fuel prices — although fuel is still much cheaper than it was a year ago. Bastian expressed confidence that Delta and other carriers can raise prices enough to cover any increase in fuel expense. Shares of Delta were virtually flat in morning trading.。《漫威斗魂》制作人山中丈嗣称，团队对主机版获得的积极反响感到非常高兴，也清楚 PC 玩家目前面对的问题：“游戏发售已经两周，我们很感谢玩家对游戏内容本身给予相当积极的评价，也能看到核心格斗玩家每天都在对战、练习、研究新的连招，并把成果发布到社交媒体上。PC 版确实有很多玩家遇到游戏问题，我们对此向所有玩家表示歉意。

C | 团队目前正全力修复问题，已经连续推出两个紧急补丁，最新补丁大幅改善了 CPU 负载问题，剩余问题也还在继续处理。”据了解，《漫威斗魂》在 Steam 首发时获得“褒贬不一”的评价。发售前后，同时在线玩家峰值一度超过 2.4 万人；SteamDB 数据显示，目前每日同时在线玩家约为 4000 人。被问及如何挽回 PC 版问题造成的信任损失时，山中丈嗣坦言，把已经流失的玩家重新争取回来将极具挑战。“这确实是一项非常艰巨的任务。

D | 我们希望拿出全部努力，为玩家创造一个能够正常体验这款团队投入大量心血打造的游戏的环境。

E | 我们也很有信心，只要能够正常体验，游戏本身会给玩家带来真正的乐趣。”“我们知道 PC 版的问题给玩家造成了很多困扰，对此真的非常抱歉。

F | 我们可以保证，团队一直在持续改进，也希望玩家愿意继续陪伴我们，让《漫威斗魂》获得更多活力。”“我还想真心感谢每一位在首发前后购买游戏的玩家。尤其是那些愿意购买 PC 版，却因为这些问题无法获得应有的游戏体验，可能暂时离开甚至已经退款的玩家，我想为他们遇到的所有问题表达诚挚歉意。重新赢回因此失去的信任绝对不会容易，但团队正在正面解决问题，并会继续竭尽全力改善游戏，让玩家能够流畅游玩。我认为，这就是我们现在能做的最大努力。团队会继续齐心协力，希望最终提供一款比首发版本更值得玩家享受的游戏。我们只能尽最大努力，也希望玩家能够感受到我们的诚意。
