[TmX]Sean Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 When vehicle lag & crashing on map change no longer occurs. Quote
Am Segulla Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 Sean":2d1s9jdq]When vehicle lag & crashing on map change no longer occurs. Is this a realistic goal? Due to the geographical dispersal of players, isn't lag due to latency inevitable? If this seems like a stupid question, keep in mind I don't have a background in IT, server management, or game design. Quote

If this seems like a stupid question, keep in mind I don't have a background in IT, server management, or game design. You have to remember that Renegade X is in beta, so some things are going to be a bit wonky. The player count was only temporarily reduced to 40 to reduce vechicle lag/crashes. The key is in that statement ^ "temporarily". When changes/optimizations are made I certainly believe that the player count will be going back up. To answer your question about latency - I can't speak for other servers but TheMatrixRen AOW attracts players from both sides of the pond and I hardly ever hear about latency issues, so from this I can only ascertain that this isn't a issue.

MonkeyBoy Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 Looking forward to this. Seeing as tmx is always full , i can assume we will also fill up on a server with 64 spaces as well. might need a higher vehicle limit to match though. Quote

renegadexplayer Posted May 15, 2014 Author Posted May 15, 2014 noo .. pls stay with 40 on matrix quit trolling! Quote

Essentially stopped playing at this point because of the player cap so I can't wait. 40 is my minimum, worst part being is every match it empties out to hell and the match is won randomly by either side's boring first 5 minutes stunt. 64 players and the crash fix will help that.

Yeah crashes certainly are the most annoying, everyone wants them fixed. Obviously the vehicle count will be getting increased if we decide to bump up the player count. Rest assured though, everything will be open to public discussion on our forums before we decide to do anything. In my opinion, I can see it going upto 50 or something to start off with and not 64 though, if it's what the community wants. Quote
omega79 Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 I would say that the count should in general be limited to 34 ... I noticed far less crashes with 34 or below Quote
Angelo Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 Well most modern games have a player maximum far below 64, I guess while 64 players was feasible a few generations back with lower amounts of graphics etc. nowadays it's much harder to up the maximum player number. Just saying you might wanna prepare mentally for 64 players not happening in this iteration of the game. Quote
SFJake Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 Yeah, no. I'm kind of sick and tired of people spouting idiocy on this forum. Quote
