About the Network Test
A network test involves using a pre-release version of the game to test performance
prior to the commencement of service. We plan to conduct large-scale network load
tests to check different technical aspects of the game's online systems.
We look forward to you taking part and helping us make The Duskbloods as good as it can be!
Overview
The primary goals of the Network Test for The Duskbloods are as follows:
-
Game server load test
We will connect a large number of players simultaneously to verify gameplay while putting a load on the game server.
-
Multiplayer test
We will test for various problems that may occur when multiple people play together in different network environments, and various phenomena that may occur by having many users participate.
-
Game balance test
When real players test the game together, the developers can gather data about how well the game is balanced.
Gameplay
The Duskbloods Network Test allows for up to eight players to participate together in each of the multiplayer matches while the game is still in development.
We ask for your understanding that bugs may occur during gameplay.
