“Even if I am a Bronze Saint Seiya and I am running into the Golden Zodiac, this should come to an end!” On August 17, with the official launch of “Super Sun Mario”, the white hair The Deputy Secretary said to himself like this.

Unfortunately, the Golden Zodiac is finished, and Hades is waiting.

And this time, it was a bigger bomb.

At 10 o’clock in the morning on August 17, “Super Sun Mario” was officially open for sale. 500,000 players who had been waiting for the game chose to buy the game and then download it.

There is nothing wrong with buying the game. After all, I bought such a huge BUG before, so this part is quite well optimized for programmers.

But after I clicked to download, the download progress bar of the browser remained stuck.

3 minutes later, many players’ download progress is still 0%, and they haven’t even downloaded 1KB of data.

What’s more terrifying is that when many players who rushed in were planning to open the purchase page of Super Sun Mario, the entire page was in a state of being unable to open.

Later they wanted to refresh the Steam Game Store, but found that the entire store had a 404 directly.

At 8:12, the website recovered for a short time, and then quickly 404.

In the next 6 hours, the website was restored 12 times in succession, and then all 12 times went down instantly. The total time of these 12 restorations was less than 1 minute and 20 seconds.

At first, the players of “Super Sun Mario” can still understand.

But after six hours, almost everyone incarnation became a grumpy Old Brother.

It is conceivable that despite the huge difficulties, it is not easy to buy some cards, and I want to play the latest “Super Sun Mario” immediately without queuing.

As a result, the neighbors who went to the store lined up next door have already started on their computers, and their download progress is still 0%, which is simply unbearable.

These irritable Old Brothers immediately wanted to go to the forum to vent their irritable emotions. As a result, the forum of the box game store was also paralyzed, so these irritable Old Brothers all rushed to the official Microsoft forum. The forums are all swearing voices. In the end, even the Microsoft forums were directly blown up, and it was directly 404.

So, what happened to the box game, so that all of them got 404?

The reason is very simple, because the box game has never imagined that the download volume of 500,000 “Super Sun Mario” will have a huge impact on the download server of the box game.

Be aware that any website that provides download services basically has to set up a large, high-speed Qualcomm road download server to provide massive access to players and download the contents of the server by accessing the service.

Of course, the box game does not have a download server. On the contrary, they have the largest access server in Microsoft’s history. Even the server that provides windowssystem downloads is not so huge. The price of this server alone exceeds 6000 Ten thousand U.S. dollars.

Microsoft thought this server was enough. After all, this is the world’s most game and largest server, but it turns out that this server only lasted for less than 10 seconds before it crashed completely.

The box game is too small to underestimate the download traffic of Super Sun Mario.

First of all, “Super Sun Mario” was changed from the motherboard to the PC version, so the optimization was poor. It has a full 1.6G capacity, which is three times that of “Warcraft III”. terror.

Secondly, they actually only set up a download server, allowing a full 500,000 visits to access one server at the same time, and the result is conceivable.

It can’t be said that Microsoft’s programmers are very stupid and naive. They consulted the data of Steam Game Store and found that even if there are 3 million downloads a day, the download experience of Steam Game Store is very smooth, although occasionally Internet speed has some lags, but overall it is very smooth. Except for users who rely on telephone lines to access the Internet, the rest of the players can basically download it within an hour.

This gives the programmers of the box game store confidence that they can do things steam can do, even more how they only have 500,000.

But they didn’t know that Steam Game Store spent a full US$600 million, ordered 40 professional download servers from Great-Thousand Electronics, and then spent another US$30 million to buy a valley in the western United States. The data center in Beimi area will be built there, all servers are connected together, and intelligently distributed through the control system.

By the way, Great-Thousand also specially developed a steam downloader, which is specially used to download software and will be automatically installed by users.

Apart from this, Boss Jia personally stared at the server. A hundred programmers were sitting in the central control room on standby. At the same time, the super data center in Guizhou, China, was launched for the first time to divert from Europe and America. Download data outside.

Boss Jia even held a Divine Artifact called ****. Once he found that the official download channel was about to fail, he immediately used this killing move to keep the download stable.

On the contrary, if Microsoft only has one download server, it still allows users to directly use the web downloader that comes with the IE browser to download. This download does not explode and it is a ghost.

Of course, in fact, we can’t blame Microsoft too much. After all, Microsoft’s experience in data products is too inadequate. They have never engaged in the magical experience of 500,000 simultaneous downloads of 1.6GB.

After all, even if it is another Ali in the world, in the first few 11.11, although every time there is experience of the traffic explosion last year, the system will eventually crash once a year.

On the contrary, I have experienced the two-dimensional game launch of my own game company three times, then the small server exploded, and then Boss Jia, who planned to sacrifice to the sky, has a full understanding of traffic, so the processing is perfect and without blemish, so that Let Microsoft never realize that there is such a fatal danger of downloading too many people.

Now Microsoft is aware of this, but everything is over.

Because Microsoft Computing immediately purchased the server, from installation to commissioning on the haul road, there was no more than 7 days to get it.

Even if it is taken down, their company’s network cannot withstand such a huge amount of downloads.

The most important thing is that Microsoft’s board of directors has huge doubts about whether to spend a high price of $3 billion to order IBM’s servers.

“Just let the box game store go to death! We have had enough of this money-losing goods!” A board member said simply.

Indeed, from the establishment of the Box Game Store to the present, he has not only failed to bring a penny of profit to Microsoft, on the contrary, it has cost Microsoft nearly 20 billion US dollars.

Microsoft can’t make decisions internally. The only bad luck is the website, and the players who bought the game on the website.

These players desperately discovered that the box game store has been inaccessible since August 17th. After a full delay of 3 days, the store resumed access, but the download function was directly prohibited.

In the words of the box store, the download function was temporarily suspended for the benefit of the players.

This is really a kind store.

Many players have directly greeted the ancestors of Microsoft, and more players choose to directly initiate a refund. The results indicate that the refund requires more than one hour of playing time before the refund can be made because the game is not fun.

Interestingly, players get refunds because they cannot download and install.

You can imagine the expressions on these players’ faces.

Microsoft was also aware of this very dangerous, so they came up with a genius plan: queue download!

Just like queuing to log in to the game, downloads can also be queued, as long as you click Download, and then the queuing page is not closed, then it is estimated that it will be queued for you to download in about three days.

I really don’t know which young genius came up with the plan!
