Chapter 284: A group battle of 10,000 people, an explosive start
"Hurry, hurry, Horde players spotted over in Stranglethorn Vale!"
"I heard there's an arena treasure chest over there that can give you blue gear."
"What the hell? The tribal players are attacking us?"
"Can you get blue equipment from a treasure chest?"
"What are you waiting for? Let's go to Stranglethorn Vale!"
…
The news of the tribe's appearance immediately attracted a large number of Alliance players who were leveling up.
They had been busy killing monsters and completing quests for more than a week. Many of them had never even seen players from the enemy camp, let alone had no idea what was going on.
Now that they received the news that the enemy was attacking, and there were treasure chests that could contain blue equipment, how could they sit still? They rushed out of the main city and headed straight for Stranglethorn Vale.
All the major guilds organized their manpower and went there in a mighty force.
at the same time.
In the tribal camp on the other side.
Countless players rushed to the port, and the scene was extremely hot.
Orcs, tauren, and trolls, which are usually not seen in the Eastern Kingdoms, can now be seen everywhere, on and off the ships.
"Go! Go to the alliance to grab equipment and take up leveling points!"
In the live broadcast room, Ouyang Xiao, who had just reached level 30, mixed in with the large group and cheered while watching the fun.
That spectacular scene.
The audience was shocked.
“There are too many players!”
"At least a thousand, right?"
"It doesn't lag at all. Honghuang's server is really powerful."
"I heard that the alliance has also started recruiting people. The number is no less than one thousand, and it is increasing all the time."
"A team battle of a thousand people, this is so cool!"
"I don't know what will happen if we fight, but don't be like Penguin, where the 100-man team got stuck."
For an MMO game, the player capacity limit has always been a point of criticism.
Better games can barely support team battles of 100 people, but if there are more, serious lag will probably occur.
Almost.
Even when a five-person team enters a dungeon, they have to block their teammates' skill effects, so that in the end they can only see their teammates' names.
The reasons are nothing more than the game being poorly optimized and the server being too bad.
No matter which one, the human and material resources invested are growing exponentially, so few manufacturers will directly max out.
After all, the monthly maintenance costs and rent are not low.
"Wow! We're here! We're in the Eastern Kingdoms!"
At this time, Ouyang Xiao's voice came again, interrupting everyone's discussion.
After their ship crossed the sea, it finally slowly sailed into a port called Booty Bay.
Open the map and take a look.
This is the southernmost tip of Stranglethorn Vale.
That is the territory of the alliance camp.
For the tribal players who came here for the first time, they were naturally very excited. After getting off the boat, they immediately wandered around.
Take on tasks or familiarize yourself with the environment.
At the same time, I felt a little nervous.
Afraid that Alliance players would suddenly show up.
But unexpectedly.
At this time, several messages appeared on the regional channel.
"Brothers, there's a fight going on in the arena, come and help!"
"This damn alliance is actually guarding our bodies. Is there anyone who can come to rescue us?"
"There are too many alliance members. A large number of them have come. We can't defend the arena anymore!"
The fight started so soon?
The tribal players who had just arrived were shocked.
They knew very well that this was the Alliance's territory and very close to the main city, so they could get here much faster than the tribe.
He quickly put down what he was doing and headed straight for the arena along the map.
When we arrived, we saw a large group of people fighting outside the arena, and all we could see were red names.
Just ask around.
Only then did I understand the whole story.
It turned out that at the beginning, the vanguards of both sides were at peace with each other, confronting each other on both sides of the arena, and there were not too many people.
The result is unfortunate.
The few people who were guarded by the tribal team here before went back to the guild and called a bunch of people to come for revenge, and surrounded those tribal players.
Those tribal players were so angry that they went back to recruit people and defeated the Alliance's guild team again.
There were more and more players on both sides, and they couldn’t communicate in the same language.
It went straight from a small-team conflict at the beginning to a guild group battle.
In the end, the situation escalated and the news spread back to the main cities of each camp, leading to the current situation.
"Is this even possible?"
The players who had just arrived at the scene were stunned as they looked at the exaggerated scene with huge crowds of people.
But they soon reacted.
Isn't this the best time to earn honor points?
There was no time to waste, and they all joined the battlefield.
For a while.
The entire arena is surrounded by players.
There were thousands of people on both sides combined, and they were frantically attacking each other across the arena. Their skills were so densely packed that they were almost invisible.
"Die, Alliance dogs!"
Ouyang Xiao controlled his Troll Hunter, shouted excitedly in the crowd, and shot hard at the opposite side.
There is a sense of pleasure in standing in the hail of bullets and attacking.
Players from other tribes were also very excited. They rushed into the battlefield shouting and using their skills at the places where there were the most enemies.
After dying, the corpse immediately ran out of the cemetery, resurrected and continued to charge, and countless prompts kept popping up.
"Great! It's so damn great!"
"This is called a gang fight!"
"The honor value is increasing faster than I can clear the PK field!"
"Another large force is coming over here!"
"Go, brothers, kill all the alliances!"
The tribe is in high spirits.
The alliance is not willing to be outdone.
Just as the battle line was being pushed back and the arena was about to be lost, a large number of reinforcements immediately arrived from Stormwind City and pushed the battle line back again.
There are more and more players on both sides.
From more than 2,000 before, it gradually increased to 4,000 or 5,000.
Until then.
There was no lag in the game.
The players on site and the audience in the live broadcast room were deeply shocked.
"Too strong! Five thousand people on the same screen didn't even crash."
"What kind of magical server is this?"
"A server of this level would cost at least tens of millions per month!"
"Honghuang is really generous ."
"They actually started a fight while I was having lunch. Wait for me, I'll be there soon!"
"I can't stand it anymore. I want to download this game and play it too!"
The grand and spectacular battle scenes made the audience excited.
Unable to sit still any longer, they rushed to download the game.
Some people who were already playing the game didn't even bother to eat lunch, and rushed back home or to their dormitories to turn on their computers and join in this faction war online.
soon.
Online players who were waiting and watching because they were worried that the server would not be able to handle the workload also received the news, causing a huge sensation.
"Fuck! A group battle with 5,000 people isn't lagging?"
"Has the fight already started in Stranglethorn Vale?"
"What are you waiting for! Hurry over and get some honor points!"
"Brothers, charge! Kill those bastards of the tribe!"
Without any worries, the players who were leveling up and playing games in various places also rode griffins back to the main city and headed towards Stranglethorn Vale in a mighty manner.
Walking on the road.
You can see endless figures rushing on the road.
It stretches all the way from the city gate to the other side of Stranglethorn Vale.
Even some small players who didn't meet the level requirements ran over to join in the fun.
…
“Hahaha, cool!”
At the Stranglethorn Vale, Xu Gu and others also participated in this battle.
Those who are over level 30 are like fish in water here, and they specifically target those with low health and low level enemies.
Once caught, it will be killed in seconds.
The honor value is rising rapidly.
"I'm about to get started, remember to nurse me!"
Xu Gu shouted, cast several paladin's defensive skills on himself, then rushed out of the team and headed straight for the opposite side.
A moment.
Being in the middle of the two camps, he became the focus of countless people's beatings, and overwhelming attacks fell on him.
"Oh my goodness, I have life-saving skills."
Looking at the attack special effects that almost filled the screen, Xu Gu shrank his neck. He dared not stay and rushed into the crowd of tribesmen on the opposite side.
【Dedication! 】
The group attack skill is released, and a large amount of holy light bursts out from under the feet, taking away a piece of remaining blood.
Then he frantically pressed various attack skills, not caring whether he hit the target or not.
final.
The defensive skill time ends.
He was killed instantly even though he was at full health, and his soul appeared in a crowded cemetery.
"Hey, I killed 8 of them this time. It's a huge profit."
Xu Gu was not angry about being killed. Instead, he happily looked through the battle records.
Just with that one move just now, he instantly killed 8 of his low-health soldiers. It turns out that having a high level still has advantages.
"There are only 8 of them. By the time you finish running away, I will have killed 10."
The mage's teasing voice was heard in the voice channel.
As a ranged profession, he is most comfortable in this kind of battle.
A blizzard was thrown into the opposing crowd, and the kill prompt kept jumping on the screen like a madman.
The other teammates also worked hard, specifically casting skills in crowded places, and they were all extremely excited.
"Right, this is what an MMO should be like. It's ridiculous to be stuck with just a few hundred people."
"This is the first time I've played such an exciting team battle. I have to kill enough people to win."
"I'm staying here today and not going anywhere!"
Although they were the ones who caused the camp war, they were still shocked when they saw the exaggerated scene before them.
Players from both camps are almost everywhere in the Stranglethorn Vale, covering the mountains and plains.
Some even went straight to their rear, took away a few people and were then beaten to death by the crowd. They couldn't even see how their blood volume disappeared.
It's a mess.
Both camps were in chaos.
In the voice channels of the major guilds, shouts of commands were heard continuously, and they launched attacks on the opposite side excitedly.
"Third brother, hurry up! Go and call all the guild members to join this game. From now on, all the main forces of our guild will enter this game!"
"I miscalculated. I didn't expect the PK gameplay in World of Warcraft to be so explosive. I have to hurry and buy some more high-level equipment!"
"Tell Wu Liang and the others to stop playing with Oracle and come here to build a guild and recruit people. We want to become the largest guild in the alliance!"
"It's going to explode! This game is going to be really popular!"
This great battle finally made the top leaders of the major guilds realize the huge potential of World of Warcraft. They changed their strategies and called together all the members who were scattered in other games.
For no other reason.
Because the PK gameplay of this game is so powerful!
Even these old players who have played countless MMOs felt their blood boiling. They hadn't experienced such an exhilarating battle in many years.
So they quickly came to a conclusion.
This game is going to be a hit!
And it was a big fire!
Once the video of today's faction war spreads, it will inevitably cause an uproar in the entire gaming community.
What they need to do is to pull all the main forces of the guilds over before that and seize the resources first.
Their guild’s chance to become famous has arrived!
…
The camp war continues.
To everyone's surprise, the battle lasted for a full six hours, from noon to afternoon, with no sign of stopping.
Instead, it became more and more intense, with players constantly coming from all over.
Especially after 6 o'clock in the afternoon, when people go home from get off work or school, they can't wait to log into the game, adding fuel to the battle.
"Disband? Not happening!"
"I've been holding it in for a long time and finally got off work, just to participate in the team battle!"
"How can I be absent from such a big event?"
"Hurry, the fight is still going on, go over and support!"
"Hahaha here I come boys!"
"Today I'm going to kill everyone on the other side!"
There are many players who go to work or school on weekends.
During the day, you can only watch it secretly through live broadcast.
Now that he was free, he naturally didn't want to waste a single minute. He even skipped dinner, turned on the computer, and went straight to Stranglethorn Vale.
When I looked, I saw that there were more people than during the day.
It skyrocketed from the original four or five thousand to nearly ten thousand.
It caused a sensation among players of other games.
