More than 10,000 players who were lucky enough to get a beta account stayed in front of the computer, set the time, and connect to the main server of World of Warcraft at the same time at 0:00.

More than 1w, nearly 2w beta players, log in to the game at about the same time period, and the amount of traffic generated in an instant is very huge, almost blowing up the server.

But fortunately, Sky Blue is willing to spend a lot of money to buy the world's top server, which can accommodate 2w~2w5 people online at the same time, although, in just a few tens of seconds at 0:00, the player obviously felt stuck, but it quickly returned to normal.

A total of 2w accounts were issued, and because the time of the closed beta test was at 0 o'clock, some players were sleepy, or had to go to work tomorrow and went to bed early, but more than 90% of the players were still waiting in front of the computer and waiting for the moment when the closed beta test started.

In the 10 minutes of 0:00~0:10, 18,000 players poured into each novice village of "World of Warcraft", with an average of 2 to 3,000 people in each novice village.

Thousands of people spread out on the spawn points of several novice maps at the same time, and it can be imagined that it is densely packed and crowded, which is very terrifying.

Although those players have posted screenshots of the game on the official website of World of Warcraft, they have seen the appearance of the novice village many times.

But when the characters under their control really stand in the World of Warcraft.

Everyone was excited.

"Play the Age of Legends combo ++++."

"Strengthen our Great Northeast, haha!"

"The report from Nagumo Province came to report."

"The honey family is here, formed."

"Little light. Here, team up! ”

……

Each novice village spawn point is lively, and the chat screen next to it quickly swipes a message to form a team. ++++, the name of each province, the xx family, became the word that appeared most frequently.

Of course. Players who plan to rush to the level don't have time to go to, with previous game experience, look around the spawn point to see if there is no overhead appearance'? 'Or'! 'npcs.

If there is, then there is a task.

With previous game experience, novices level up the fastest to do missions.

The difficulty is average, and the goal of the mission is to familiarize the player with the game, as well as the various operations.

There's an NPC right next to the spawn point, Vice Captain Verry, who has a big '? 'No.

I don't want to delay for a second. With a quick mouse click, he moves in front of Vice-Captain Viri. Pick up the task.

Because. They know how important it is to be one step ahead of everyone, one step ahead. Step by step.

No one grabbed the monster, no crowding. When a large number of other players guard a level 1 monster, the person who is one step ahead can kill the level 2 monster, and no one robs the monster, compared to a large number of people guarding a monster, it's so happy.

Soon, the situation that emerged confirmed the wisdom of the old birds.

Follow-up players are still pouring in, and the spawn points of each novice village have been crowded and overcrowded, and they want to click the mouse and move to the quest NPC, but they find that the mouse has nowhere to click, and if they move there, they will click on other players. Finally received the task, as soon as I moved to the monster area, suddenly, dumbfounded, there were more people than monsters, and every time I brushed out a monster, countless weapons knocked over.

For the experience of a mob, there will even be a quarrel between the two players, and if it weren't for the PK, maybe the two would have chopped up.

At half past two in the morning, the veteran bird players who are one step ahead can almost get out of the novice village, but many players are still spinning around at level 3~5 -

He Dong, one of the lucky people who got the activation code for the closed beta of "World of Warcraft".

I heard that the first time he played a game of whack-a-mole, he got a closed beta activation code, which made many of his friends very envious of his good luck.

Many people don't sell it for 200 yuan in order to buy this internal test activation code in his hand, you must know that 200 yuan is a lot, which is equivalent to his salary for two days.

He refused, because he was a fan of the game himself.

Second, he watched the game information given on the official website of "World of Warcraft", the screenshots posted, and the video, and was immediately attracted by the exquisite pictures in "World of Warcraft", very individual, beautiful character modeling, pure magic style, grand world view and plot, as well as a variety of interesting gameplay, as well as very challenging copies, testing the tacit understanding between the team, cooperation, sacrifice,......, he was almost immediately attracted by everything in "World of Warcraft", and he couldn't wait to enter it as soon as possible. World of Warcraft" game.

Third, in the hearts of many gamers, the word "wasteland" is very sacred, very glorious, to be able to enter the "World of Warcraft" for the first time, to participate in the development of "World of Warcraft", he feels honored, in the future, to mention to others, I am a "Warcraft" Wuxun, participating in the development of "World of Warcraft", with a double light on his face.

Whenever he hits a piece of equipment, completes a task, or kills a small boss, and posts a screenshot to the Q/Q group and the "World of Warcraft" sticker/bar, it will arouse the envy of many people, heated discussions, and a little vanity will arise in his heart, which is very cool and feels great.

However, an alpha test activation code can be sold for 200 yuan, which makes him very curious.

He opened the "World of Warcraft" sticker/bar, and at the top of the sticky place, the bar owner opened a special beta activation code trading sticker.

There are many purchases in the post, and most of the prices are around 200~250 yuan, but no one responds.

Very few are sold, and every time a player posts that they want to sell a beta activation code, it can elicit a lot of replies.

Closed beta activation codes are in short supply!

At half past eleven in the evening, he came to the Internet café with a water cup in his hand, and some tea was brewed in the cup.

Tea leaves are refreshing.

Today he plans to stay up all night, anyway, don't go to work tomorrow and rest.

Come,Position that often sits,It's okay,No one sits,Otherwise,Yesterday's good "World of Warcraft" customer service end will be next time.,Although,This Internet café has a strong Internet speed.,You can get off in more than an hour.。

However, wasting more than an hour, which made him unacceptable, especially for a period of time when the closed beta was opened, racing against time.

Although, he doesn't want to rush to any level, but he doesn't want to lag behind others a lot, so it's not interesting.

He Dong sat down and turned on the computer.

On the computer desktop there is an icon, blue frozen background, four big words 'World of Warcraft'.

He didn't click on the icon, and now at 23:45, there are still 15 minutes before the start time of the closed beta announced on the official website of "World of Warcraft".
