Yesterday, I received an invite to SocioTown’s beta test.昨天，我收到了邀请sociotown的测试。 SocioTown is a web based 3D Massively Multiplayer Online Social Game (MMOSG) developed by Outside The Box Software and since it’s web-based, it means that you play SocioTown in your browser. sociotown是一个基于Web的三维大型多人线上游戏社会（ mmosg ）开发以外的机顶盒软件 ，并因为它的基于Web的，这意味着你发挥sociotown在您的浏览器。 There is no client to download and install.有没有客户端，下载并安装。 The game uses Adobe Shockwave Player which are already available in most browsers and, besides, you can always download and install the player, if your browser doesn’t have it, which is very small.游戏使用Adobe Shockwave播放器，目前已经可以在大部分的浏览器，此外，您可以随时下载并安装播放器，如果您的浏览器没有它，这是非常小。

After going through the character creation process which was very simple, I logged in and found my character in jail.经历了人物塑造的过程很简单，我在记录，发现我的性格在监狱里。 I find it weird for a game like this to have newbies start in jail.我觉得奇怪的一个游戏一样，这有新手开始在监狱里。 While in jail, I had a series of conversation with some NPCs that eventually led to having my character named, my password set and my e-mail confirmed.而在监狱中，我进行了一系列的谈话与一些npcs最终导致有我的性格命名，我的密码设置和我的电子邮件确认。 After that my character was set free.之后，我的性格是一套免费的。 It was just a case of mistaken identity.它只是一个案件的错误的身份。

Outside, I received an e-mail from my character’s sponsor.以外，我收到一封电子邮件，从我的性格的赞助商。 A sponsor is like an NPC assigned to assist you inside SocioTown.保荐人是一样，全国人民代表大会分配给您提供帮助内sociotown 。 In the e-mail, he said that I needed to see him and he also gave instructions on how to find him.在电子邮件中，他说，我需要看到他和他还介绍了指示，就如何找到他。 Finding the location was not that hard but what is really annoying is the way you control or move your character.找到的位置并不难，但是什么是真正恼人的是这样，您可以控制或提出你的性格。 It’s point-and-click but the screen does not always shows you the correct viewing angle.它的点和点击，但屏幕上并不总是告诉您正确的视角。 I still have to discover if there is another way of moving around SocioTown but if there are none then the unpredictable camera movement will definitely need a lot of getting use to.我仍然要发现，如果有另一种方式的走动sociotown但是，如果有，没有的话，不可预知的相机运动一定会需要很多得到使用。

At my sponsor’s place, he gave my character further instructions and information on how to play SocioTown.在我的赞助商的地方，他给了我的性格的进一步指示和信息，就如何发挥sociotown 。 Basically, it’s about meeting new people, building a network of friends, and improving your relationship with each other.基本上，它的有关会议，新的人民，建立一个网络，朋友，以及改进自己的关系，与对方。

Other aspects of the game which I think are also important are completing missions and doing jobs.其他方面的游戏，我认为也是很重要的是完成任务和做好工作。 My first mission was given to me by my character’s sponsor which involves sending a message to another NPC and lying to another NPC.我的第一个任务是给我我的性格的赞助商所涉及的将一封邮件发送给另一个全国人民代表大会和说谎，另一个全国人民代表大会。 LOL!大声笑！ When I completed the mission, something surprising happened, my character LEVELED UP!当我完成了任务，有意外的发生，我的性格为平地了！ It went from Level 1 to Level 2.到了，从1级到2级。 I really did not expect that because I did not see any indication that my character was gaining experience.我真的没有预料到，因为我没有看到任何迹象表明我的性格是获取经验。

Okay, gaining a level kinda got me excited so I tried to get a new mission but, unfortunately, my character can only do one mission a day.好吧，获得了一级kinda让我兴奋，所以我试图得到一个新的使命，但很可惜，我的性格只能做一团一天。 That sucked because now, I have nothing to do.即吸，因为现在，我没有这样做。 I tried getting a job in one of the shops but my level was too low to even get an interview with the shop owner.我曾尝试找工作在其中的店铺，但我的水平太低，甚至可以采访店主。 I also tried to increase my speed by running around but that didn’t get me anywhere at all.我也试图增加我的速度跑，但没有得到我随时随地在所有。 LOL!大声笑！

Finally, I decided to end my first session of SocioTown.最后，我决定结束我的第一届会议的sociotown 。 I wasn’t able to do any socializing in the few minutes I stayed in SocioTown because of the fact that I was not able to meet any human players at all although I did meet a few NPCs (Non Player Characters) but I don’t think they count.我无法做任何应酬，在几分钟的时间我住在sociotown ，因为事实上，我是无法满足任何人在所有的球员，虽然我没有满足数npcs （非玩家人物） ，但我不认为他们计数。 Besides, I’d rather socialize with human players than non-human players.此外，我宁愿社交与人类的球员，比非人类的球员。 LOL!大声笑！

For me, SocioTown is different, it’s not Second Life and it’s not your everyday MMORPG but I am quite sure that it’sa game, different but it’s still a game.对我来说， sociotown不同，它不是第二生命，它不是你的日常mmorpg ，但我相当肯定这是游戏，不同的，但它仍然是一个游戏。 I’m sure that there are more things to discover in SocioTown and I’ll try to discover them as I continue with my exploration of this brand new world.我敢肯定，有更多的东西，发现在sociotown我会尝试发现它们，正如我继续与我探讨这个崭新的世界。 If you want to try it out yourself then sign-up for testing and also visit SocioTown’s website to learn more about it.如果您想要尝试看看，然后自己注册的测试和也访问sociotown的网站 ，以了解更多关于它。
