ps. The author suffered from tenosynovitis, and his typing speed is relatively slow, and he will refuse to update for a while. You can wait for a later refresh, or the next morning.

This situation will probably continue until the end of the year. The doctor said that it needs to be delayed for so many days, and the update should return to normal after the new year.

Please bear with me for the inconvenience caused to book friends, and I apologize to everyone here.

April NO.16, the day of the World of Warcraft public beta.

This day is destined to be recorded in the history of online games.

As early as a few days ago, millions of pre-order players around the world have pre-downloaded and are waiting for the arrival of the public beta every day.

Nowadays, many stand-alone games often skip tickets and delay the release date.

Often the date when the game can actually be played will be delayed by a quarter or even half a year from the original date.

The result of this kind of hope becoming disappointment is a considerable blow to game fans.

Fortunately, World of Warcraft did not inherit such a bad habit, saying that it was released on April [-]th, it was released on April [-]th.

And although the first day of the public beta, there are many fans waiting for early adopters of the game, but apart from the 1 minute after the server was unblocked, it became very smooth, and there is no need to queue up, and you can directly enter the race career selection interface.

Many online games and even mobile games, when the server is launched, there will be server explosions and long queues, and some even have to be deployed for hundreds of years.

But in fact, many of these are self-directed and performed by game operators, using non-existent players to trap normal players, creating the illusion that the game is extremely popular.

Sometimes, this method is quite useful, but in more cases, it will only arouse the disgust of the players.

Luo Quan never liked this kind of thing, so a few days before the opening of the server, he had Penguin and Microsoft meet the server to conduct stress tests every day, just to ensure that the server would not be blown up when a large number of players flooded in.

As for the crowding, there is no way the game is so popular, but Luoquan will not show the fans the waiting time, but will only show them how many people are in front of them and the server they can directly access.

However, on the day the server was launched, the effect of these measures was actually not very great.

Just for the kingdom, Penguin has set up ten regional servers, and each server is subdivided into ten small servers.

However, due to the propaganda of some rich domestic players, the "Ansu" in the first district was marketed as exclusive to nobles.

Because Orgrimmar in the second district and Stormwind City in the third district have been designated by default as places where gods such as tribal alliances and trade unions fight.

If civilians compete with these masters, naturally there will be no good development.

But if you go to a server with a lot of local tyrants, if you get an orange outfit or a rare transmogrification, you might be able to make a lot of money.

As a result, the Ansu server became the most popular regional server after the World of Warcraft national server was launched.

Luoquan also went to Ansu, not to show off his wealth or anything, simply because there are many people here, and the price of items bought by the auction house will be much lower in the future.

But she didn't expect that there would be so many people.

As the boss, she gave the order to open the server. After sending the message, she frantically clicked the button to enter the game.

It stands to reason that she should be able to squeeze in, but after opening the server, the screen just flashes, showing that there are 35612 players in front of her, please wait patiently, or you can choose other regional servers.

Seeing this, the barrage burst into laughter:

"Haha, who was swearing that it would be impossible to blow up the server just now?"

"Don't be embarrassing, this is not bombing, it's just that you can't get in."

"After all, how can you show the popularity of the game without queuing?"

…………

It was also because she talked too much, and everyone in the barrage started to laugh.

At the same time, World of Warcraft, which exploded after its server launch, also rushed to Weibo hot searches without any suspense.

But this time there was no bombing server, it was simply because Ansu's server was too crowded, so that the mentality of the local tyrants collapsed.

Si Aobi directly tweeted and scolded, telling these people not to squeeze Ansu again, he just went to the toilet, and the game server started.

Before drying his wet hands, he clicked into the game, and the results showed that there were more than 5 people in line in front of him, and the number of people had passed for a long time without moving.

Fortunately, Penguin quickly issued an announcement, saying that it would stop the Ansu server for a short time around [-]:[-] am to expand the capacity so that more players can join in.

But if the server is stopped now, it is estimated that there will be more people scolding than just online, so no matter if you are a local rich or a commoner player, just wait honestly, this game does not have any vip queue jumping function.

Although Penguin had talked with Luo Quan about this before the operation of Penguin Games, saying that he could add a vip or membership privileges, but Luo Quan didn't even look at the specific plan, and directly killed them all.

"My game doesn't allow any privileged users. As the boss, I don't even think about setting up any privileges. Why should others be better than me?"

Luo Quan threw the word to Penguin's game operation in this way, which can be regarded as guarding this one of the few pure lands.

As time goes by, power leveling studios will definitely appear, but that is the internal conflict of the players. Whether it is good or bad will depend on future player surveys.

As for vip, membership, etc., it is one of the biggest vices of Huaxia online games. She will definitely not allow this kind of function to appear in World of Warcraft.

This is also a trending topic on Weibo. Players who can't enter the game are cursing, but it's just too much cursing, and they can't play the game. So far, I haven't seen a few scolding the game itself.

Of course, planning is also a hard-hit area for players to focus on.

In fact, there are not many things that can be decided by planning, but because they often come out to take the blame, so as long as there is a problem in the game, everyone defaults to scolding the planning and it's over.

Also amidst the scolding, the pressure on Ansu's server gradually decreased, and the players in the waiting queue also entered the game one by one.

Compared with the closed beta, World of Warcraft has made some improvements in the picture quality, and the optimization is also much better.

In addition, the content of the public beta is several times more than that of the internal beta.

In the copy during the closed beta, there were only three five-player dungeons and a multiplayer team copy.

The 1.0 version of the public beta directly includes three large maps, seven five-player dungeons, three multiplayer team copies, as well as a [-]-hour main plot and a ten-hour branch.

Even if it's just a plot scenery party, you can get a very fulfilling game experience.

And when everyone has experienced the plot and reached the full level, the real essence of the game has just begun.

Same as during the closed beta, Luo Quan still chose the Blood Elf Fury Battle, and used his own data to pinch his face.

When she finished the novice tutorial and appeared at the gate of Orgrimmar, she was surrounded by tall and strong green-skinned orcs, tauren and trolls.

The crowd was so dense that it completely blocked her vision, and no matter where she went, the huge crowd followed.

"Damn it, is there a bug?" Luo Quan looked at the screen suspiciously, still wondering what's going on.

Soon, the mixed news on the world channel made her suddenly realize:

"Luo Quan, I'm your fan!"

"Luo Quan, can I add a friend?"

"By the way, is there a marriage system?"

"What do you want?"

"Haha, do you even need to ask? (dog head)"

…………

Now Luo Quan knew that all the players around her were fans.

But it is a pity that World of Warcraft has not added the marriage function for the time being, but the possibility of adding it in the future cannot be ruled out.

Although World of Warcraft is strictly speaking an equipment-driven mmorpg, it can actually be an all-encompassing open-world online game.

The purpose of open world games is freedom. Players can experience reality in the game, and even some happiness that cannot be realized in reality.

At present, the functions of World of Warcraft in this area are still relatively lacking. There are only some simple production specializations. The sense of substitution is definitely not as strong as that of open world games.

"Everyone go and experience the game, don't just circle around me, this is a card game, time is money."

After meeting with the fans, Luo Quan also typed and asked the big guys to leave quickly.

Surrounding her like this, not only did she have no gaming experience, but neither did these fans.

However, the fans responded quite frankly:

"It's okay, the annual card I bought is not bad for one or two hours."

"In fact, I just want to see Luo Bao's face in the game, it looks like me."

"I feel like I'm in love again."

"Everyone, don't act like idiots, let Yushu Linfeng let me do it!"

…………

The last sentence was spoken by a hideous orc.

I don't know if his pinched face was scanned by the camera, if so, then this is really a human tragedy.

Luo Quan is well-informed, and after this ugly face suddenly appeared on the big screen, his face turned pale with fright.

The other players around couldn't take it anymore, and complained that he was too scary.

But thanks to this old man, the players around him gradually dispersed, and Luo Quan was able to receive the first main mission and start his journey in World of Warcraft.

Truth be told, the journey has not been particularly smooth.

Whenever she goes to fight monsters in the wild, she can always meet alliance players who form a group to kill her.

Just like playing League of Legends and meeting the enemy jungler, Luo Quan was also targeted.

Ordinary players seem to be quite interested in torturing stars.

However, after the players on the tribe's side heard that their goddess had been killed several times, they immediately formed a group to ambush her and came to wait for the rabbit.

Then, it was to guard the resurrection point in the wild, and started whipping the corpse over and over again.

But the alliance is not a soft persimmon that is left to the hands of the tribe. It directly shouted on the world channel, saying that the tribe is guarding the corpse of the alliance.

Countless, hundreds of alliance players immediately came to reinforce, and several of them were local tyrants who had saved up a whole set of top-quality equipment in the early stage through money-making ability.

Compared with high-play and union-gathered servers, the Ansu Noble server is less competitive, and most people actually want to have fun.

Therefore, when everyone heard that there was a fight, they put down the main task and went to the wild to fight against the enemy camp.

This is also the first faction war since the World of Warcraft server opened, and the fuse was because of Luo Quan.

The initial conflict was caused by her, but she also took the lead in the ensuing battle, leading the tribe's warriors to kill the alliance.

But as more and more people participated in the battle, the frequency of character death became higher and higher.

Although death will not lose experience, but the equipment on the body will lose durability.

And the gold coins in the early stage are very limited, and it is really not worth spending on them.

So after more than half an hour of fighting Luo Quan, he continued to upgrade the plot.

It wasn't until after dinner in the evening that she browsed station B that she realized that the battle was still going on, and it was even on the trending searches.

"A war of ten thousand people broke out in Ansu, and the alliance and tribes fought endlessly!"

This is the news from the official account of Penguin Games. The perspective is also from the characters in the game. In the distance is the battlefield with various light effects.

"According to the reporter from the war zone, the cause of this battle was that Luo Quan was attacked by alliance players in the wild, and the tribe players of the same camp started guarding her body after a successful ambush in order to protect her.

The alliance was overwhelmed, and immediately called for a counterattack, and then the battle intensified. "

After the cause and effect came out, Zhihu soon had related questions:
"What do you think of the World of Warcraft Anzu server, the battle between the Alliance and the Horde in the wild?"

Highlight answer is:
"Luo Quan used himself as an example to vividly explain to everyone what it means to be a beauty.

In ancient times, there were too many wars launched because of beauties. Although everyone said that beauties were just an excuse, wars were launched purely for expansion and wealth. What role could ancient women play?
But the truth is, women can really make a big difference sometimes.

Originally, the server had just started, and everyone was still immersed in leveling up the plot, but when they heard that the goddess Luo Quan was being attacked, immediately a flower protector came to escort her.

And this is the beginning of everything.

If it was placed in ancient times, Luoquan would probably not be able to escape the reputation of being a disaster for the country and the people.

But with her appearance, it is normal for such a thing to happen, no matter in the game or in reality. "

………………

In just half a day, World of Warcraft created a raging storm on the Internet.

Not only in China, but also in foreign countries, the degree of discussion is still frighteningly high, and the trending searches on Twitter in various countries have entered the top ten.

And the latest global simultaneous online number has also come out, which is a terrifying 620 million.

Other than League of Legends at its peak, there is no other game that can compare to it.

In recent years, the last game with such a high popularity was the last one.

Yes, "Final Fantasy", which was just released a while ago, is also produced by Blizzard Studios, and its popularity is still over the top.

It's just that in comparison, the popularity of stand-alone games is definitely not comparable to that of online games.

And the glory that belongs to World of Warcraft has just begun.
