Rebirth of the Internet: Starting from Games

Chapter 170 The server can’t hold on anymore
"After the public beta, two major areas will be opened, Telecom Area 2000 and China Netcom Area [-]. Each area will first open thirty groups of servers. Each group can host [-] people online at the same time. If the number of people online exceeds the maximum number, there will be a queue.

Note: If the number of registered characters in this server exceeds 2, the creation of new characters will be closed.

On the day of the open beta, new servers will be added at any time based on the actual number of people in the open beta.

The following are the server names for each region.

Netcom Zone [-]:
1服：黄巾起义、2服：桃园结义、3服：三顾茅庐、4服：火烧博望、5服：铁索连环、6服：草船借箭
Telecom Zone [-]:
1服：方天画戟、2服：青龙偃月刀、3服：倚天剑、4服：雌雄双股剑、5服：龙胆亮银枪、6服：冰铁双刃戟.」

As soon as the two announcements came out, they received unanimous praise from players. Some of the suggestions were put forward by them and received official attention. They felt a sense of mission to participate in game production.

Most individual players paid most of their attention to the first announcement, while some scouts from major families and gangs who were stationed on the official website saw the content of the second announcement. They all took notice and reported it to the boss in the group.

With the whole body involved, these family unions determined the target area server after discussion, and then issued an order. They must successfully register on the X area XX server at 10 o'clock tomorrow and enter the game.

The recruitment thread on the official forum is very lively, with various families and trade unions vying for customers.

There are families with various thresholds, ranging from more than [-] yuan with no cap, to hundreds and thousands, and down to free individual unions, focusing on solidarity and mutual assistance.

Some union bosses even offer a monthly salary of 1 yuan to recruit master players in the internal beta of Three Kingdoms OL, and issue 3 recharge cards every month. Of course, the threshold for this requirement is higher, and only players who have occupied more than three large cities in the internal test can get it. Qualifications and required to provide corresponding screenshots to prove.

It has enlightened countless civilian players. Is this how rich people play games?
Of course, the Chu-He-Han boundary of Southern China Telecom and Northern China Netcom will be difficult to break for a while. Netcom players look for the Netcom family group, and the same goes for Telecom, each looking for its own mother.

A player replied under the announcement: [Recharge [-] yuan to open the server] Which area is my Tietong online game?The child is lost, begging for guidance from someone who is destined to help him
A bunch of people in the underground are vying for replies. They come to China Netcom and China Telecom. They are scrambling for answers. Ten thousand krypton bosses are the core combatants.

Seeing that there are all the answers above, this guy feels as confused as if he can't find the temple gate even if he is carrying a pig's head.

Finally, fortunately, the official paid attention to this issue and gave a considerate reply: You can use online speed measurement tools to judge the latency of China Netcom and Telecom. It is generally recommended that Tietong players choose the Telecom area.

At this time, there are three major network operators in China. In addition to the two big brothers, China Telecom and China Netcom, there is also a smaller company called Tietong.

Tietong, the full name of Railway Communications Information Co., Ltd., was established in late 2000. It is a large-scale state-owned basic telecommunications operator. It was later approved by the state to become Tietong Group and merged into China Mobile.

But there is one thing to say: Tietong's network at that time was really rubbish. It was on the same line as China Telecom, but the bandwidth traffic used was the leftover leftovers after Telecom guaranteed its own users. This kind of network is so fast.

Having said that, in addition to these players who have participated in the closed beta, many players who play other games and have not qualified for the closed beta before are also looking forward to it and want to try it out.

After all, in the previous closed beta of Three Kingdoms OL, they more or less listened to the people next to them yelling about the cards they drew and how awesome they were. It felt like they couldn't keep up with the trend of the times if they didn't know what card drawing was. Same.

Under the influence of their ears and eyes, they were also itchy and wanted to see what drawing cards meant.

Just like that, September 9th arrived, albeit late.

The Three Kingdoms OL public beta server has been launched for less than 10 minutes.

The status of the first 10 groups of servers in the first and second districts changed from green to yellow, then to red, directly becoming full and entering the queue state.

Chen Hao was not late this time and stayed with the technical team at Tianshu Game Studio.

In fact, it is enough for Chu Xuan to be in charge alone. The symbolic significance of Chen Hao's appearance today is far greater than the actual significance. It gives these employees a feeling that the company's big boss attaches great importance to this project.When you feel pressured, you will feel more motivated.

An hour later, the first 1 servers in areas one and two were all full, and all the remaining servers were in yellow busy status.

Chu Xuan issued instructions in an orderly manner, asking the operation and maintenance side to add 10 sets of new servers in each district.

Due to plans and drills in advance, the operation and maintenance side was very fast. In half an hour, when the first batch of 60 servers were all full, 10 sets of new servers were connected and online.

At present, the number of people online has exceeded [-], and it is still rising, but the speed is slowing down.

Later, Three Kingdoms OL regularly opened 10 new servers every hour to cope with the continuous influx of new players.

Fortunately, Tianshu Studio has made sufficient plans and preparations this time.

Taking into account the popularity of the closed beta period and the enthusiasm of players in the forum, Tianshu Studio asked Century Hardware to prepare nearly 100 sets of servers in advance for the public beta of Three Kingdoms OL, with a maximum theoretical capacity of 20 people online at the same time. .

After all, looking at all previous online games, the record for the number of people online at the same time on the day of the public beta was 3 set by Legend 18 at the beginning of the month.

As a result, even if we tried to overestimate the number of players, we still underestimated their enthusiasm.

The first wave of online peak numbers came around 1 p.m., and the number of online users exceeded 18 in one fell swoop.

This made Chu Xuan, who was calm for a while at noon, take a break from his busy schedule and just eat his meal in the canteen downstairs when he got a call. Then he ran away just after eating half of the meal and hurried back to his work station.

Looking at the trend chart and detailed data analysis on the statistics page, Chu Xuan concluded that around 1 p.m. it was the lunch break for office workers.

In the past, most players should have been students.

If we speculate like this, then the peak of the second wave should be after 7 pm, when office workers go home after work or go to Internet cafes to play games.

He had to plan ahead. Even if his judgment was wrong, the servers would be idle for half a day. But if he didn't respond, it would be a huge mistake in his work.

Thinking of this, Chu Xuan quickly took out his mobile phone and called Lin Lang for support. He asked to prepare 80 additional sets of new servers, but the latter gave him a slap in the face.

"You think you're opening a bank like me. You can take whatever you want. I don't have 80 sets. I can prepare up to 60 sets now. If it's not enough, I can only tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall. By then, you You have to submit the order in advance to the chairman for approval."

"Okay, then let's start with 60 sets. I'll use them first. When will you be ready with these 60 sets?"

“Delivery by 6pm!”

"Okay, I'm waiting for your news!"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Lang cursed secretly, his grandmother was more anxious than the other.
This day is not over.
