At the critical moment, both sides of the "breakup door" were surprisingly quiet, and the penguins couldn't sit still, and they were close to their faces
Yesterday on the "Anniversary Day" of the national server, players anxiously waited for the official announcement, but as a result, they didn't receive any news all day, which made them very confused. They began to wonder if the previous actions such as the release of the whole network and the withdrawal of the lawsuit by Netease were another fake game, similar to "the wolf is coming". Just to hit competitors ~
As a result, the funny thing is that they didn't wait for NetEase Blizzard, but waited for Penguins, and recently their "Warcraft" game "Taris" launched an event called "xxx burn trees". Many players remember the burning of Teldashir by Sylvanas on the eve of Update 8.0, and a similar scene is featured in the promotional video for the world of Taris. While there is no direct mention of Sylvanas burning the tree, for those who have experienced the story, they will immediately tie the two events together.
This wave of players who frequently tease World of Warcraft, and even directly declared, "On January 23rd, you don't declare, I declare!", which can be said to be trying to attract players from the national server to play, and by the way, all kinds of mocking friends~
However, the current result is that the national Warcraft players "never forget, there is no repercussion", hateful~
Many foreign media paid attention to this "remarriage" and predicted the return time of the national uniform
According to a long article published by the website PocketGamer, "Blizzard and NetEase Ice Release Suspicion Before Returning to China", Activision Blizzard has tried to reach new agreements with NetEase's competitors including Perfect, Alibaba, Byte and Penguin in an attempt to enter the Chinese market. However, a year later, these attempts failed, and the two giants opted to release their suspicions.
The PlayerAuctions website not only details the events that took place between Blizzard leaving the Chinese market and preparing to return, but also carefully analyzed the timing of Blizzard's national server reopening, and gave their predictions, which they believe are the most likely time point for the reopening of the server in mid-2024.
At the same time, a number of foreign media, such as the Spanish-language media AlterTime, have also paid attention to this matter, or accelerated the push of the overall process.
This wave is a bit of a show, originally everyone thought that the NetEase God Warcraft community might be a channel on the official channel, but I didn't expect that it was actually just a crazy "melon-eating" media, they only focused on hot topics, and they also began to rub traffic crazily to cater to the needs of Warcraft melon friends!
The core developer of "Age of Dragons" announced his departure, and Blizzard once again lost a general
From WB@ Snow Storm Monarch, senior software engineer James Robert Collins recently announced his departure from Blizzard. He joined Blizzard in 2021 and worked on World of Warcraft for almost three years. His main contribution was the creation of the Dragon's Age expansion dragonrider's flight system, which will continue to be used in the 11.0 Battle for the Center of the Earth expansion and will be further upgraded and improved. "Dragon Age" can be said to be a version that Blizzard finally launched to save its reputation after the continuous decline in popularity after Warcraft 7.0 "Return of the Legion", and then this time it lost another general~
