I Developed The Zombie Apocalypse And Netizens Went Crazy With Excitement

Chapter 296 The Terrifying Speed

As the number of registered users exceeded 20 million, Steam and Storm Gaming Company released a new post at the same time.

Previously, when the number of registered users exceeded 10 million, the reason it wasn't released was because the speed of the breakthrough was too fast.

Even the staff of the game development companies didn't expect the game to become so popular.

Everyone knew that since Su Ping was the one who made the game, it would be a hit.

However, it was still a little too scary for the game to have more than 10 million registered users in the first minute of its official release.

This time, the number of users successfully exceeded 20 million, especially since the company was finally ready.

At the bottom of the post was a poster created by an artist that the game development company had employed.

Moreover, the long string of numbers—20 million—was also very satisfying.

On the poster, there was a paragraph of text celebrating the successful breakthrough in the number of registered users.

As soon as the poster was released, it immediately attracted the shock of many players.

After all, the game had only been released for a few minutes. How could there be so many registered users?

Although the game had already started its beta test, there were only 100,000 players.

There was also no way that all of the registered users were beta testers.

With the release of the poster, the topic of Ready Player One quickly began to cause widespread discussion among many players on the Internet.

Regardless of whether they had registered an account in the game or not, as long as they heard about the game, they couldn't help but join the discussion.

After all, Ready Player One is now super popular. It had already become a worldwide phenomenon.

The search terms related to Ready Player One also entered the top of the search rankings.

There were even some entries that directly ranked first.

[Damn! If I'm right, this game has only been officially released for a few minutes, and the number of registered users has already exceeded 20 million?!]

[It's terrifying! What is this "Ready Player One"? How can it be so powerful?]

[No way! There's still someone who doesn't know about Ready Player One in this era?! Don't tell me you don't even know who Su Ping is?!]

[Haha! It seems that Su Ping is famous, but not to the extent that everyone knows him.]

[It seems like Su Ping still needs to continue working hard to let everyone in the world know his name as soon as possible.]

[As expected of a game developed by Su Ping, I knew it would be a hit as soon as it was released.]

[It's too terrifying. I have never played Su Ping's game before. However, Ready Player One looks quite fun to play. I'll download it and play it now!]

[Damn it! I'd already started downloading the game when the pre-download was available. Why haven't I finished downloading it yet?!]

[Me too! If that's the case, I'm afraid the game will have another popularity growth after a while!]

[It will definitely happen! These 20 million players we saw in the post now all have very good hardware facilities. That's why they can download the game as soon as possible. There must be many people like us who haven't finished downloading the game!]

[I want to see how many registered users there will be after everyone's game is downloaded!]

[Guys, do you think the number of registered users will exceed 50 million after today?]

[It's very likely to happen. It's only been a few minutes, and there are already 20 million concurrent players. There are still more than ten hours until the end of today!]

Countless players were discussing the topic of Ready Player One online, and the popularity of the posts and the number of comments were also increasing rapidly.

In just a few minutes, the number of comments under the poster about the number of registered users from the game development company had exceeded hundreds of thousands.

It even reached a terrifying ten million views!

It wasn't just the Internet that was in an uproar. As more and more players registered their accounts and entered the gaming world of Ready Player One, the number of players that could be seen inside the game was also increasing rapidly.

Previously, when the first batch of players had just registered and entered the game, it might have been difficult to meet other people in the game.

After all, Su Ping had changed the spawn point of the players to random before the game's official release.

In other words, the players wouldn't appear from the same place as in the beta test.

In the game's official release, everyone appeared in a completely random place. It was impossible to be affected or controlled.

Therefore, if some people were born in a remote place or if the system just happened to place them somewhere alone, they would be able to survive.

Afterward, the person would definitely be very confused after entering the game. He would start to wonder if he was playing an online game.

He would wonder if he was playing a single-player game again.

As the players flooded into the gaming world of Ready Player One, Su Ping kept receiving notifications and all kinds of good news from the game development companies.

"Mr. Su, the number of our players is still growing rapidly. By the end of today, our registered users might be able to break through the 100 million mark!"

"Mr. Su, this is an unprecedented achievement. Perhaps no one will be able to surpass the record we set this time. Ready Player One will forever be in the most dazzling position in gaming history!"

The staff from the game development companies had been completely conquered by the performance of Ready Player One. They were also very excited about it.

Su Ping was the one who made Ready Player One. The game development companies were only responsible for the operation and could only get a small share of the profits…

However, as someone who worked in the gaming industry, they were naturally happy to see a game related to them achieve such terrifying results.

After Su Ping received the news, he replied with a smile.

"Haha! Everyone, calm down, don't get carried away by our current achievements."

"It's only the first day of Ready Player One's official release. There's still a long way to go for this game in the future."

"Therefore, everyone must strictly follow the plan that we have previously set. Try to avoid all possible mistakes and prevent the players' gaming experience from being damaged."

"This isn't just my game. Ready Player One is the game of all players in the world, including you."

"In this game, you are just ordinary players!"
