"Boss, at 7:00 p.m.," swordsman's devotion to the country "will be on public beta Wu Zhaopu excitedly walked in and said.

After more than a year of development, a large-scale domestic martial arts online game with an investment of more than 100 million yuan will finally be released for public testing.

"By the way, how many supercomputers do you have in swordsman's love story Asked Lin Feng.

"Three, Bruce has assembled three, and Cohen has transplanted" cloud computing "into it. Now, after these three supercomputers are connected in parallel through" cloud computing ", their computing speed has reached 40 trillion times per second. Whether they can operate" swordsman love: loyalty to the country "perfectly depends on the actual situation." Wu Zhaopu with a trace of excitement, but also with a trace of uneasiness.

When Qiu Xin designed "swordsman's devotion to his country", inspired by the world war developed by minwu Li, Qiu Xin also came up with such a concept that all players play on the same server. This concept naturally exceeds the ability of online game companies today. Fortunately, Bruce Allen, a super DIY computer hardware player, was recruited by "second world" to build a supercomputer for "second world".

However, in order to ensure the smooth operation of "devotion to the country", Wu Zhaopu conservatively set the official public test at 7 o'clock tonight. There is only one zone, and it is only open to domestic players for the time being. At 7 o'clock, only 100000 people can log in. If there is no problem with the operation, it will be opened for the second time at 8 o'clock, and 100000 online people will be opened again. If there is no problem, it will continue to open at 9 o'clock and keep testing.

Can three supercomputers sustain millions of people online at the same time? Although in theory, a group of servers can withstand 5000 players online, and the performance of a supercomputer is at least 200 times better than that of an ordinary server, in theory, three supercomputers can withstand up to 3 million people online at the same time. But the question now is not just whether the supercomputers of the "second world" can bear it, but also whether the players' computers can bear it.

The supercomputers of "the second world" have to share part of the calculation of the players' computers, which puts a severe test on the three supercomputers. As time goes by, the second game development department, led by Qiu Xin, is checking before the final public test. Bruce and Cohen are also in the supercomputer room waiting for the arrival of massive data.

Uneasy!

For all domestic players, they have been looking forward to the public beta of "swordsman love: loyalty to the country". This is the first large-scale martial arts online game made in China, and its game background is one of the most sad times in Chinese history. In the early Southern Song Dynasty, the national hero Yue Fei devoted himself to his country.

Mention Yue Fei, all players is a burst of sigh, such a hero, but was killed by Qin Hui, the traitor, with a "unnecessary" crime. It is undoubtedly the greatest sorrow for a general not to die on the battlefield. Now all players will be able to participate in this historical event, which makes all players excited and looking forward to.

"Second world" officially announced that players will be able to change the historical background and development of "swordsman love: loyalty to serve the country", and have a completely open degree of freedom, which is not available in any previous game.

In "swordsman's devotion to the country", players can do whatever they want. For example, players can choose to assassinate Qin Hui to avoid the biggest tragedy in Chinese history; Or he chose to assassinate General Yue Fei's main opponent, Jin Wushu, which directly solved the crisis of the Southern Song Dynasty; They can even choose to assassinate the king of Jin, wanyanyao, so that the Southern Song Dynasty could reorganize and unify China.

In a word, the freedom of players is completely open. In "swordsman's devotion to his country", players are not subject to any restrictions. The only limitation is the player's own strength.

At the beginning of his design, Qiu Xin set the swordsman's devotion to his country as a completely open plot, with many endings. Whenever players trigger a plot and change a historical script, Qiu Xin will launch large-scale copies accordingly until the end of this historical era.

Qiu Xin designed a total of three large-scale expansion films for swordsman love online, and "loyalty to serve the country" is only the first one. Therefore, Qiu Xin is not afraid of the terrifying ability of Chinese players to dig out the plot of the game and end the life of swordsman love online early.

Of course, if you want to change all this, you have to have the ability to change the plot! For example, if you want to assassinate Qin Hui, it's the simplest "variant" scenario. However, this simplest "variant" scenario requires players to reach the "first-class master" level at least (the top level is 70, and the "first-class master" level is 60), and at least hundreds of players of the same level have to kill Qin Hui's house at the same time to succeed in assassinating.

As for the subsequent rescue of Yue Fei and the assassination of the gold owner Wan Yan, it is extremely difficult. Without tens of thousands of players acting at the same time and skillful cooperation, they will only die in vain. Although there is no experience to lose in swordsman's devotion to the country, it will lose some martial arts proficiency, which must be re cultivated.

In particular, Qiu Xin also designed a new "rebel" system. If the player wants to change the historical background and take the risk of assassinating a member of the imperial court of the Jin Kingdom or the Southern Song Dynasty, if his identity is exposed during the assassination (the player can buy a "camouflage" mask before assassinating, but has a certain chance to take it off in the battle), the court of the assassin will want the player in full, And soldiers from all towns in their countries will hunt down players. Players can only go back to the sect for temporary security. Of course, if you assassinate an NPC at the level of emperor, you will not be able to escape from the enemy country.

The "Treason" punishment is not cancelled with the death of the player, but with a mandatory time limit. Therefore, it is not so easy for players to change the plot.

Although it is extremely difficult to change the plot, and the price is extremely painful, for all the enthusiastic players, they are still very fascinated. They are waiting for the service of "swordsman love: loyalty to the country". To experience that period of hard-blooded and helpless years with the National General Yue Fei.

Of course, millions of players in the same server game gimmicks, but also let all players excited about an important reason for dancing.

According to incomplete statistics, on May 23, 2002, more than 2 million players were waiting for the service to be launched. However, the service was officially launched at 19 p.m., but there were only 100000 players. The competition can be described as fierce. Therefore, from 18 p.m., a large number of players have already opened the client, waiting for the service of "swordsman love: loyalty to our country". Ready to enter the game at the first time, to experience this only "legend" can exist in the network game.

As rivals of the "second world", 12 domestic online game companies are also paying close attention to the opening of "swordsman love: loyalty to the country". Although we have previously established a domestic online game alliance in the "first Internet addiction war" - a new era, competition is everywhere. In particular, many people in the "new era" alliance are eager to have a few fewer of the 13 companies in the alliance, so that each company can share more money when it comes to the weekly game time of minors and the charge for limited telephone notification.

Among them, the most nervous ones are undoubtedly the companies operating 3D online games in China. At present, the only popular 3D online games in China are "miracle" of "nine cities", and "Xiaoao Jianghu online" just represented by "perfect time" and "endless tasks" which Shanghai Ubisoft computer software company is preparing to introduce.

All three companies are members of the "new era" and pioneers of 3D online games in China. Naturally, they pay close attention to the strong launch of "swordsman's love for our country" by "second world", and they have mixed feelings.

"Second world" now covers many types of games. What has made money has made everyone envious, but it also extends its tentacles to the field of 3D online games, making many companies want to cry without tears. Does the second world want to wipe them out? But the managers of these companies are helpless. Who let the "second world" grasp so many resources.

"Valve" game development team, "3Do" development team, "cloud computing" and "supercomputer" are enough to make other companies salivate, but they are all in the hands of a "second world" company.

Jealousy, the naked jealousy of 12 game company executives. Even Tencent, the communications market leader holding QQ instant messaging software, is envious of "the second world".

Chen Xiaowei, the president of "nine cities", also waited in front of the computer early, waiting for the service of "devotion to the country" through the traffic detection software developed by people in the industry.

Chen Xiaowei doesn't believe that "loyalty to the country" will be able to let all players run on the same server as the official propaganda of "second world". Although "second world" has supercomputers that all online game companies in the industry envy, it doesn't mean that "loyalty to the country" can carry millions of players online at the same time, In particular, the Asian version will be launched to enable Asian players to enjoy the fun of large-scale role-playing games in one server.

Player's computer is absolutely unable to bear millions of people online at the same time—— Chen Xiaowei said firmly. In particular, if millions of people are online at the same time, the area of the game map involved will be more than 100 times larger than the "miracle" map of the "nine cities" company. She does not believe that "second world" will develop such a large map. And how to upgrade, how to fight monsters, NPC again powerful, but more ants can bite dead elephant, especially "second world" officially announced that players can change the background of the game, this is a joke.

Think about it, millions of players rush into the golden palace, what does NPC take to resist? Especially the data of millions of players, even supercomputers may not be able to handle it.

Chen Xiaowei sips her tea gently, waiting to see the "second world" preaching that the cowhide is broken.

Most of the members of the "new era" hold such an idea and watch good plays quietly( To be continued, if you want to know the future, please log in www.qidian.com , more chapters, support authors, support legitimate reading!)
