CRoberts posted:From the data we see it is not so much about player count but more about WHAT the players are doing. In our internal testing we didn't witness the performance issues that we saw on PTU or Live once thousands of players got in and started doing all sorts of crazy things. You should see plainly now, Citizens: Croberts is already the first to blame you, the esteemed pledgers, when anything starts to go wrong with his game. Alas: be prepared in the future for more condemnations from Croberts about any of SC or SQ42's failings. nnnotime fucked around with this message at 04:07 on Dec 25, 2017 |

People are going to start ripping into streamers for daring to do things like "spawning ships" and "attempting to do missions" and "going places because going places spawns asteroids" This is phase 3, Croberts has supplied the backers the info needed for them to make this the fault of other backers instead of CIG now

'Twas the night before Paarpmas, and all through the 'Verse, Not a backer was pledging, for it just got worse Delusions were posted on Reddit with care, In hopes that St. Christopher soon would be there; Citizens were nestled all snug in their beds, While autism chariots danced in their heads Titanic with her iceberg, and I with by bunnes, Had just finished a season of Friends reruns When out of the blue there came a new Tweet, I sprang from the chair to the Warlord's drumbeat Away to the forums I flew like a flash, I refreshed the thread and stroked my moustache The goons were elated, while MoMA was stunned, For lawyers had seized their millions of funds When, what to my wondering eyes do I see, The Warlord himself is now claiming a V A "washed-up developer", so salty and tart, I knew in a moment it must be D_Smart. More wordy than EULAs his topics they came He tweeted, and posted, and blogged them by name: "Now! Archer, now! Legal, now! Lesnick and Lando, "On! Sandi, on! Zendesk, you're snowflakes, commandos! "To the federal building! To the town city hall! "Now litigate! Litigate! Litigate all!" As interns that 'fore the bankruptcy will flee, When parted with paycheck, sans college degree; So up to the jailhouse the p'licemen they flew, With the car full of staff - and St. Christopher too: And then in a minute, I heard in the thread The anger of backers was fin'lly widespread As I refreshed the thread, and was getting right sauced A new blog from D_Smart, so smug and aroused He typed in all caps, was having a cow His sources were leaking: "Apocolypse, Now!" A bundle of links were slapp'd right at the end, His first July blog post, "Read it!" he contends His eyes - how they twinkled! His hairline, how thinning, Old Greybeard had won; on his chair he sat spinning His poo poo-eating grin displayed a bright glow, And his message was thus: "loving told you so!" "They switched the game's engine", he wrote with a curse. "There is always more, and it is always worse!" The crossed arms of he showed with an air He cackled with glee, and leaned back in his chair His post had that rhythm, that rhyme, and that station "Forty-two is eighty-sixed, sweet vindication!" But I saw him exclaim, when this fire he set alight "Happy Paarpmas to all, and to all a good night!" e: reupped from last year with minor revisions

Some parts of this are pretty funny.crobbler posted:The number of players on the server has a lot less impact in client performance than one would think. It's all a shambles. quote:Fill up a Caterpillar with cargo, blow it up over an Outpost on a moon and you can bring the clients and servers to their knees The fidelitous cargo annihilates the game engine. quote:One other common issue that can kill performance is interpenetration of objects ? quote:as that causes an overload on physics, especially if its on a larger object. An example of this is the Asteroid Mission (which we disabled last night) that was spawning on top or near Olisar and being sucked into the local grid causing all sorts of issues and deadlocks. ?? quote:In addition we need to do a better job of efficiently handling the bigger ships which can bring in thousands of additional elements to update as opposed to the smaller ships that have a lot less items and geometry. Have a bunch of people fly around in Starfarers and Caterpillars and you're straining the clients and server far more than you would be with a bunch of Auroras and Hornets. The ships also break the game engine. quote:We have solutions for all these things Oh good, I was worried. quote:currently we are limited to only four threads for physics regardless of the cores on a client or server Why four? Isn't this your highly modified engine? Also, why do you need more than four? quote:dialing in performance and bugs Oh, dialing in the bugs. That explains it. quote:we ran late as we were focusing on features versus dates. We've got to make something. I promised this 16 months ago. quote:If you are getting performance in the sub 10-15 FPS range there is definitely something not right He finally noticed that something isn't right. quote:Of course this will take a bit of time , so please be patient.

It's good to see that they're giving some consideration to the idea of shifting away from a model that stream all data everywhere at once to the player regardless of location. It's an unconventional approach but this is an unprecedented undertaking.

Virtual Captain posted:Thankfully I know an Optane SSD will make Star Citizen good. Your PC will launch in blinking fast speeds into the slog of horrible FPS that is Star Citizen. And when it will inevitably crash, you'll be at least able to recover faster and try your luck again in that Groundhog Day nightmare. I'm surprised no one has suggested that from CIG yet . It should sell those SSDs Intel needs to push even quicker.

juggalo baby coffin posted:i guess in that balance a carrier would make sense if the fighters were drones rather than manned. keep the pilots inside the big cushy protected carrier, plus you'd be saving on the multi-ton life support equipment a manned fighter needs. There's a game called Cortex Command that's got a similar concept; you are a brain in a jar, with a pile of remote bodies. You can pick any of the bodies and control them, and if it gets blown up, it means nothing, you just make more. You only die if someone gets through your base and shoots 'you', your brain. It's a lovely idea and very original, but unfortunately the game is very buggy and eternally incomplete. (Early Obsidian / Bethesda-tier incomplete; not CIG tier. It's still playable.) Really I can't see why people don't try more interesting styles of future warfare.
