At 0:03 on June 7, all the servers of game World of Warcraft of China entered turn to be offline with the stop of the 10-minute countdown to the return-to-zero.
The 4-year WOW age is over under the operators The Nineth City, and a new 3-year term WOW time getting ready to be lunched by METS. Due to the WOW agent exchange involved in the policy approval and the information transfer, WOW players have to keep wait 2 to 3 weeks can regain the game. It means there are about 50 million WOW players are going to enter the first rest days.
Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaine with NTES CEO Dinglei announce WOW enter the transition formally. And the temporary NETS WOW BBS begins to use; the new officel website of WOW adopted warcraftchina.com.
It is the second time for Mike and DingLie jointly send letter to players. From this act we can see that Blizzard and NETS pay high attention on players on the transition period, and it reflects the two companies face a huge pressure. With the effect of agent transfer, many of the WOW player have approached to the Taiwan server and the worse is few local game companies plan to undermine the foundation of the WOW player to their free beta game.
Blizzard and NETS promise to the players that the overall performance of the game will be significant upgraded once the server reopen and leak the plan of time gift and game reword will be unveiled soon.
