I have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World - Chapter 1295 - Break One's Own Record

When Godly Land first came online, the Phantom helmet was still a rarity. Future Technology had never considered outsourcing or licensing the technology to other large manufacturers. Therefore, it was difficult for players to purchase helmets on the official website, even for rich individuals. Many players could only enjoy the games in the Internet cafes partnered with Future Technology, and often times there was a waitlist.

To a large extent, the low penetration rate of helmets had severely restricted the number of online users at the beginning of the 24-hour period.

But even so, on the first day of launch, the record of 100 million concurrent users around the world easily broke a record set by a certain MOBA game.

The launch of Galaxy Edge was bound to divert some players from Godly Land.

But it was an expected outcome.

No matter how fun the game, how rich the content, it was evitable that players to grow weary of a game. When people lose their interest and start to feel bored with day-to-day mobs and endless tasks to complete, they were bound to start thinking about playing less or even leave the game, then find a new game to change things up.

Galaxy Edge happened to provide this new option for these players.

It was three in the morning.

Lilith did not need to sleep, but Jiang Chen was already sleepy and couldn’t stand it anymore.

Based on the saying of the Internet, those who were not asleep at this hour must be seeking to become greater beings.

“You’re not going to sleep yet?”

Attracted by the light in the living room, Xia Shiyu, who got up to use the bathroom, came down the stairs and walked up behind Jiang Chen.

With her arms on the back of the sofa, she put her face over Jiang Chen’s shoulders, looked at the holographic screen floating in front of him, and murmured with tired voice. “… Well, it has reached 370 million? It’s estimated that its peak is 400 million.”

“Aren’t you surprised?” Jiang Chen turned his face slightly, and smiled, “I was looking forward to seeing a startled expression on your face.”

“I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed.” Xia Shiyu’s lips curved up to form a gentle sleepy smile. “When we met three days ago, we made predictions on this data and reserved server resources based on the data. ”

“Oh? What is the number of players you predicted?” Jiang Chen smiled.

“The daily average… is probably at around 100 million. As for the peak number, if you don’t consider expansions and in-game events, it is probably the number you will see. Not surprisingly, it should be about 400 million. ”

Xia Shiyu gave a fairly conservative estimate to Jiang Chen.

But even a conservative estimate was a pretty staggering number.

Future Technology’s creation could only be broken by Future Technology.

After tonight, this record would once again shock the world.

…

Early the next morning, the Wall Street Journal gave a rare headline to an online game.

“The VR game industry hits a new high again, the peak of the global concurrent players on Galaxy Edge exceeded the total population of the UA.”

The UA population exceeded 400 million in 2020, and as of 4:00 am on May 31st, the number of online users had already exceeded the 400 million mark with the influx of players from other time zones.

Like the time when Godly Land went online, the capital world had once again set their sight on the masterpiece created by Future Technology after a gap of four years. In this era where traffic is king, this astounding number of players meant money.

Wall Street analysts valued Galaxy Edge at more than 100 billion dollars. Whether this valuation was accurate or justified remained a debate, but the valuation was just the tip of the iceberg for the captial world’s interest in this game.

It was not just the Wall Street Journal, 80% of the world’s media, on the first day of June, reported on the miracles created by Galaxy Edge.

On the official website of Galaxy Edge, hundreds of articles on game strategies and experiences in different languages ​​appeared in the newly opened official forums.

These strategies were usually compiled by high-end amateur players, while professional players were still struggling in the game world at this moment.

Because there was no internal test on Galaxy Edge, naturally there were no internal beta players with first-hand information. Everyone was in the exploration stage of this game, and everyone’s starting point was the same. Whether someone could create a gap with other players was dependent on the first 24 hours.

In order to respond to emergencies and urgently repair possible bugs, the staff of Future Technology was almost next to their computers and servers in shifts, as they meticulously monitored all the news in game and on official forum in real-time.

Soon, it was noon, and the team leader who had just brewed himself his fourteenth cup of coffee returned to the conference room.

It just happened to be at this moment, the staff of the operation team around the computers exclaimed.

“What happened?” The team leader walked up to the staff with his coffee in hand, as he looked at the laptop screen.

The page on the screen was the official forum of Galaxy Edge.

In the chat section of the official forum, a post gained tens of thousands of visitors in just ten minutes.

[The first Seagull-class starship in the game, not much to say, just see it yourself!]

After he saw the title of the post, the team leader took a second to process this information before he snagged the mouse, and scrolled down to look at the post below it.

[What the…, good lord, is this your ship? ]

[This is insane! It only took this long before the first 500,000-ton starship is created! ]

[I don’t read much, so don’t lie to me! The cost of a Seagull-class is at least ten million credits!? ]

[The game has just been launched for twelve hours. How come you have tens of millions of credit points? I just completed a hidden reward task, and it only rewarded me with 200,000 credits!]

[Loli requesting to play with you! Height 160cm, weight 49kg, my location is Wanghai…]

[@Admin, come out and meet God himself. I just want to know, is this a hack?]

[The commenter above must have been kicked by a donkey. When did a hack ever exist in a Future Technology game? How many years have Godly Land been running? Have you heard of hacks?]

[Is it an NPC ship? No, it doesn’t look like it. If it is an NPC ship, the flag should be the Earth Federation flag…]

“Someone posted a picture on the official forum. The first Seagull-class starship has been created… It was posted in the Mandarin section of ​​the forum. It should be a player in Hua’s region,” Xiao Zhang looked at his team leader and said with a serious expression.

The team leader frowned.

Based on the settings of the game, all players had an empty, single-person aircraft at the start. They could mount a mining module to mine, install an attack module to participate in story missions to obtain credit points in the battle with interstellar pirates, or head to the colonies of the Earth Confederation to participate in ground warfare.

According to normal game flow, players could get their first 100,000-ton starship after 72 hours of game time and start their own Star Trek journey.

A 500,000-ton seagull.

It was undoubtedly a bit too powerful for the start of the game.

Even if he had complete faith in his colleagues at the technical team to not make any mistake, he stop could not help himself but to suspect that a major bug appeared in the game.

With this thought in his mind, he did not dare to hesitate, immediately took out his phone, and called the technical team leader.
