Dennis, a student at Arizona State University in the United States, sits in front of his computer and swipes through web pages with game-related news or forum posts.

Although it is now past the real midsummer, Phoenix City is a typical desert climate, very sunny, with high temperatures all year round, and temperatures of more than ten degrees in winter. In the summer, the temperature can reach more than 40 degrees, and now it is not as hot, but the temperature is still very high.

Dennis felt that in this hellish place, engaging in outdoor activities was definitely torturing and suicidal, and only eighteen-degree air conditioning and games could save him.

He doesn't want to go anywhere except for classes, he just wants to play games at home.

"Hey, Dennis, did you get the test?"

Dennis looked up, and his roommate asked with a smile.

Dennis was expressionless and said in a cold tone, "Tom, you are on the verge of danger. ”

Tom made an exaggerated expression and said, "Oh, it looks like our Dennis still hasn't been qualified for the test." Tomorrow the test begins, and it seems that I am alone. ”

"Oh, Dennis, the client is already available for preloading, maybe the test qualifications have been discontinued."

Dennis was a little irritable, the test qualification in their mouth was naturally the test qualification for the new work "Three Kingdoms" in the future Oasis, and now the test is approaching, and hundreds of test qualifications have been issued.

However, there is no Dennis's share.

He wondered why it was all so unfair. He was one of the first users of the Oasis platform and a loyal fan of the future Oasis, and he didn't qualify for this test with a total of hundreds of hours of game time.

And his roommate, on the third day after applying, received an email to activate the test eligibility, knowing that he spent much less time playing in the Oasis platform than he did.

Although the future Oasis said that the test qualification is still being issued, and it will continue to be issued after the test is opened, and someone in the forum said yesterday that the test qualification has just been received, but all this has nothing to do with Dennis.

What a hell of a standard, what the hell is going on in the Oasis in the future.

The more Dennis thought about it, the more irritated he became, and Tom had asked himself more than twenty times since last week. Once in the morning, noon and evening, it is more punctual than the alarm clock.

Dennis felt that he was very kind not to beat him to death.

"Hey, Dennis, you know, I'm one of my favorite games with a sense of history."

Tom leaned in again and said, "It's a pity that our country doesn't have such a deep history. It's a shame that all those fantasy games use the history of Europe. ”

After all, it is a country with no history, and if you want to make a sense of history in a game set in the United States, you can probably only use the background of the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, or the Western Cowboy, and I don't know if you can make a game that depicts Americans scalping the Indians.

"But now I'm tired of games with medieval backgrounds, or fantasy games like that. Now the ancient culture of the East is even more attractive to me, I think the weapons they use, the way they fight, is simply cool. ”

Tom made an exaggerated movement, imitating Genji's move to open an ultimate, and said, "Don't you think it's handsome?" You know, I'm a big player of Genji and Yasuo,"

"Idiot, that's a Japanese samurai, and this time the Three Kingdoms, it's not the same thing at all."

Dennis shouted angrily, although it is a little difficult for an American to understand what the Three Kingdoms are, and the reason why Dennis is a little angry is mainly because Tom's actions evoke some bad memories for Dennis.

Yes, Tom is a loyal and happy Genji player, Yasuo player. It's just that this happiness is based entirely on the pain of his teammates.

After all, handsome is a lifelong thing, what is the record? What does it matter if 0-10 matters? Don't you think I'm showy?

Dennis added another argument to his kindness, that is, he could put up with Tom's game record and not beat him to death.

Tom shrugged his shoulders and said disapprehantly, "Whatever he is, I like this cool cold weapon, I like these things." I think I'm definitely a master in the Three Kingdoms. ”

Dennis didn't want to talk to him, he only had one wish now, and that was that an email from the Future Oasis would immediately appear in his email inbox, telling him that he had been qualified for the test this time.

What a wonderful life it would be to be able to hide in an 18-degree air-conditioned room and play fun games in such a hot weather.

This time, the focus of "Three Kingdoms" is on the domestic market, and in the future, Oasis has invested relatively large publicity resources in the domestic market. However, this does not mean that "Three Kingdoms" has given up on overseas markets.

At least after the investigation of the operation department, among the large number of active users overseas of the Oasis platform, the acceptance of "Three Kingdoms" is still very high, and many users are willing to buy this game, and many people express interest in the relevant cultural background of the Three Kingdoms.

For a game, as long as the game itself is fun, the cultural gap is not very serious. Although there is a big difference between Eastern and Western cultures, Japanese culture has a very strong influence and acceptance on the entire gaming circle.

In the past year, the Oasis platform has achieved initial results in the establishment and operation of overseas servers, and has built servers in several important game markets.

The game "Three Kingdoms" can theoretically be regarded as a global server, and all the data of all games in the future Oasis is interconnected with each server. It's just that when playing, players will connect to a low-latency server based on latency.

If you don't mind the delay, or if the latency is okay, you can manually select the servers that are far away from you.

"Three Kingdoms" was designed with this aspect in mind, and a lot of the data in "Three Kingdoms" can be computed locally, reducing the impact of latency. The Oasis engine provides a new form of encoding and encryption for the data of the game, which technically eliminates the possibility of cheating.

At the same time, the Oasis platform is a truly pure software platform, without loading all the mess. THE SITUATION OF THE NETWORK IS ALSO MUCH BETTER THAN BEFORE, AND IF THE NETWORK DOES NOT HAVE PACKET LOSS, IN FACT, THE LATENCY OF 100-200MS WILL NOT GREATLY AFFECT THE GAME EXPERIENCE.

This time, the test of "Three Kingdoms" attracted not only the attention of players, but also the attention of many game manufacturers, including some major domestic game manufacturers, especially several giant manufacturers.

Nowadays, some small game manufacturers are reluctant to get involved in this field because of the development investment and development risks of MMORPG games. But for these giants, MMORPGs are a genre they won't give up.

These game giants will consider the richness of their game lineups, the influence of MMORPGs should not be underestimated, and the loyalty of players is also high.

Just a week before the start of testing of "Three Kingdoms", the MMORPG "All Creatures", which was pinned on by penguins, began its third round of testing. This is another attempt by Penguin in the field of MMORPGs, and it is hoped that this new self-developed game will save Penguin's now somewhat half-dead MMORPG game lineup.

The agent's sword spirit and self-developed heavenly sword are all half-dead and dying, and the penguin's MMORPG camp has relied on the agent's DNF to take the lead for so many years, and this challenge is more than ten years.

Another giant, WY, MMORPG is his basic disk in the field of PC games, and naturally he will not give up this field easily. Although their self-developed games can't get rid of the influence of "Fantasy Western Play One-stop" and have been hacked by many people, they still persevere.

"Three Kingdoms" is a catfish squeezed into the pond of MMORPG for them.

At the same time, they also want to see what kind of performance a game like "Three Kingdoms", which is different from traditional MMORPG routines, can perform.
