Chapter 295 – 295 Ten Million Concurrent Players in a Minute

295 Ten Million Concurrent Players in a Minute
Finally, Ready Player One was officially released!

Since the game’s pre-download was available at 10 a.m., some players with faster internet speeds had already downloaded it.

To take care of the player’s emotions, players didn’t have to download all the files before the game could be played!

The game files’ download sequence had been carefully adjusted by the game development companies’ staff.

In other words, the game would prioritize downloading the most important files. Players would only need to download 70% of the files before they could complete the next file download and enter the game early!

Of course, since the players hadn’t downloaded the remaining files, they couldn’t unlock all the areas in the game after entering it.

The areas that hadn’t been downloaded were all grayed out and couldn’t be selected in the teleportation system.

However, even so, it was enough to make the players satisfied and surprised.

Some people thought that they would have to wait another hour or two before they could download the game and enter it.

Just as they were feeling anxious and their hearts were racing, they realized that they could enter the game!

This feeling made countless people worship Su Ping as if he were a god.

Many people couldn’t help but share their joy on the internet and praise Su Ping generously.

[Oh my goodness! I haven’t finished the pre-download, but the download button suddenly changed to the start button! This is definitely the biggest surprise I’ve encountered this year!]

[Haha! Su Ping, you’re just like my second parent. I’m going to hate anyone who dares insult Ready Player One because I can download the game at the same time!]

[That’s great! I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to enter the game immediately and might fall behind others. Now, I don’t have to worry at all!]

[Su Ping, you are my God. I will never scold you again!]

[Brothers, I’ll make a move first. I must become one of the top-tier players in this game. At least, I must become one of the top two tiers!]

[Who doesn’t want to? I must get the mythical equipment!]

[Brothers, let’s go! After waiting for two months, Ready Player One is finally here!]

[I’m coming! Ready Player One, here I come!]

At this moment, no matter where they were in the world, countless players had already dressed up, put on all their equipment, and then clicked to enter the game.

After the initial light and shadow changes, in less than a minute, these people opened their eyes again.

The world in front of them had undergone earth-shattering changes. They had already left their rooms and arrived in a brand-new world.

During the beta test, all players would spawn at the space station above the oceanic planet.

However, when it came to the game’s official release, the size of the space station was naturally unable to meet the needs of the players.

After all, although the space station was vast, it could only accommodate hundreds of thousands of players at the same time.

If there were more people, there would be no place for everyone to stay on the space station.

Now that the game has been officially released, the number of players entering the game has been calculated in the tens of millions.

Therefore, this time, the system didn’t arrange for everyone to be at the same starting point. Instead, it allowed everyone to randomly choose their spawn point.

A person could be born anywhere. Of course, the places were absolutely safe.

Su Ping couldn’t allow the players to enter the game empty-handed and appear on the death planet or in some very dangerous places.

If he did so, the players might lose their lives the moment they entered.

In short, there was enough space in the game to accommodate every player to log in, and there wouldn’t be a crowded situation in the game.

In the first minute of the game’s official release, Su Ping learned from the data provided by Steam that the game had exceeded ten million concurrent players!

It was the number that had increased in just one minute!
It could be said that the ten million concurrent players in Ready Player One were equivalent to the number of concurrent players during the peak of many top-tier games.

However, it was only the beginning of Ready Player One!

Nobody could predict Ready Player One’s final achievements. Even Su Ping himself couldn’t give an accurate estimate or figure.

After all, he was not a god. Moreover, the system created the game, so he could only make a rough guess.

According to Su Ping’s previous estimation, the game would be considered a success if it exceeded 100 million concurrent players in the first month.

However, looking at the growth rate, Su Ping suddenly felt that his previous estimation was a bit too conservative.

100 million in a month?

The game had only been officially released for a minute, and it had already achieved one-tenth of Su Ping’s goal.

A scary thought popped up in Su Ping’s mind. Even he was shocked when he thought of it.

“Could it be that the number of concurrent players will exceed 100 million within a day?”

Su Ping also thought that it was a bit of a fantasy. The others might laugh at him if he told them about it.

However, it was Su Ping’s true thought. It was possible!

The major game development companies had sent a large number of outstanding technicians to maintain the servers.

Therefore, even though the server was under immense pressure the moment the game was officially released, it still managed to hold on.

After all, this time, Ready Player One’s server could be said to be the largest game server in the world.

It might even be the fastest supercomputer array in the world.

Another four minutes had passed, and it had already been five minutes since the game was officially released.

Su Ping received another number.

The number of the game’s concurrent players had doubled compared to four minutes ago, reaching 20 million!

The number was still rapidly increasing!

At this moment, Su Ping had a feeling that the goal he thought he could achieve in a month might be achieved before the end of the day!

Today, Ready Player One is destined to create unprecedented achievements and records in this world’s gaming industry.

Moreover, Ready Player One’s achievement might not be broken by anyone in the future!

Su Ping’s name would also be recorded forever.
