245 Randomly Picking the Players
After some discussion, Su Ping and Angelica decided to distribute the beta test quota randomly.
Of course, it also included the identity verification required during the registration process, as well as many more complicated steps.
The steps were mainly taken to ensure that the game’s beta test quota wouldn’t be sold after one had obtained it. It was because if one wanted to log in, they would likely need to go through a face-verification process.
If someone sold their invitation code to someone else, the other person wouldn’t be able to pass the face verification in the game, and naturally, they wouldn’t be able to play the game.
This way, it could prevent scalpers from using a large number of accounts to register, causing many fake accounts to appear in the game during the beta test.
Moreover, it could prevent the huge fluctuations that the scalpers caused in the game account market. It could also prevent people from turning the qualifications originally issued for testing games into economic activity.
Su Ping didn’t want the scalpers to make a fortune from his game before he could even make money from it.
Su Ping felt that he would feel worse than losing money when he saw the scalpers making money from his game.
After listening to Angelica’s words, the live stream room was in chaos.
No one expected that Angelica would reveal such a big piece of news after saying that it would take a month for the game to be officially launched.
100000 beta test slots? A new game?
Moreover, the game even had a built-in economic system. It seemed that the game was different from the games that Su Ping had made before. It might be a game with online and social features.

It was interesting!
Many live stream room viewers began to guess and associate what kind of mode the game would be.
[Could this game be a survival online game? Everyone will form their team on the wasteland, and then become stronger by killing monsters, leveling up, and upgrading equipment?]
[That’s too old-fashioned. Didn’t Su Ping say he was going to break through his limits this time? We definitely won’t be able to guess the game’s contents. In short, it’s definitely not a simple leveling-up game!]
[I’m looking forward to it, especially with the economic system. I dare say that this game has a strong social attribute. Now I can finally ask my friends to play along with me!]
[Su Ping has finally come to his senses. Since his games are so good, it would be a loss if he only made single-player games. I can’t imagine his income if he made a social game and added on some game character’s outfits and accessories!]
[I just hope that Su Ping can test the economic system better. Otherwise, the economic system will become a paradise for studios and scalpers!]
[Speaking of which, there are only 100000 test slots at most? Isn’t the quota a little too small? Although it looks like a lot, compared to Su Ping’s fans, the number is probably only one in a thousand!]
[That’s right! I wonder if Su Ping can add more testing slots for the game. When the game is officially launched, will the data accumulated during the tests be inherited or deleted?]
Angelica suddenly saw the last comment and realized that it was an important question.
After all, the OASIS that Su Ping was designing had a strong social attribute and the players were divided into different levels.
If the data from the beta test could be inherited on the official server, wouldn’t that mean that the players who could draw the test qualification would be one step ahead of others?
It was obviously an injustice to the players who didn’t get the right to draw.
Angelica immediately sent Su Ping a message to ask him about it.
A few minutes later, Angelica finally received Su Ping’s reply. She didn’t know if Su Ping had just read it or if he had been thinking about it for the past few minutes.
In short, Su Ping’s reply was very simple. There was only a word.
“Inherit!”
The moment she saw the word, Angelica felt her heartbeat slow down.
As a veteran gamer, Angelica knew what it meant to inherit the data of the test server without deleting it!
The situation made Angelica hesitate about whether she should tell the viewers about Su Ping’s reply. She was worried that if she said it, it would cause chaos among the players.
The chaos was probably no less than the end of the world. It was as if an earthquake. If such an earthquake happened in the real world, the entire earth would probably be completely destroyed.
However, after thinking for a moment, Angelica finally took a deep breath. She knew she had no other choice.
Angelica only had one choice—she had to tell the live stream room viewers the truth.
Meanwhile, many live stream room viewers noticed Angelica’s strange expression, and they began to urge her to continue.
Angelica took a deep breath, looked at the camera in the live stream room seriously, and then said word by word.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I asked Su Ping whether the data in the beta test would be kept in the official server. In the end, I can tell you clearly that Su Ping’s answer is yes!”
“As long as you are qualified to enter the beta server, you will be able to experience the new game three weeks earlier than others. Moreover, all the data accumulated in the game will be retained.”
“It will allow you to establish your advantage on the official server before the others. You might even become a boss!”
As expected, the viewers’ reaction was the same as what Angelica had expected.
It could be said that the originally dense comments in the live stream room were cleared in an instant. At this moment, many players were probably thinking about life in front of their screens.
Everyone knew how important the test qualification lucky draw was.
After a short period of suppression, the live stream room was in chaos.
Countless viewers typed out their thoughts desperately.
[What the heck?! The official server is inheriting the data of the beta test?! Is Su Ping crazy?!]
[Although it will be disadvantageous to those who don’t get the qualification, it’s fine as long as I can get the qualification. Speaking of which, why hasn’t the link appeared yet? I’ll go and complete the registration now!]
[I don’t want to wait any longer. When will the qualifications for the beta test be officially announced? Will there be scalpers or something like that?]
[Since we need to verify our identity, there shouldn’t be any scalpers, right…]
