909 Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 I was playing SA-MP the other day and noticed how bad the sync was, maybe it had a lot to do with everyone pinging over 150 and I was around 50ms. Anyways, is the sync in MTA going to be better than SA-MP?
erorr404 Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 Wait until it comes out and judge for yourself.
Shib Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 I don't think either one would compare with a different multiplayer mod. So I doubt you'll get a reasonable answer for that.
909 Posted September 30, 2006 Author Posted September 30, 2006 This is a question for those who have played MTA and SA-MP. I'm specifically talking about the weapon sync.

lil Toady Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 They look good on the vids but people with low connection speed will have problems as mta sa gonna take much bandwith if im right
Bladexen Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 This all my opinoin but, I am a daily SA-MP player, but from what I've heard, seen, and played from MTA in the past, I think its going to be much better sync, its not official though just what I think. I'm usally right...
orappa Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 They look good on the vids but people with low connection speed will have problems as mta sa gonna take much bandwith if im right People with slow connections are going to have problems with most games. Btw, 909, you won't get an official answer to your question.
Mnightmare Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 speaking of connection speed.. what is the most important?.. up-speed, or down-speed?... and what is the estimated minimum for ok/good results?
MrJax Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 speaking of connection speed..what is the most important?.. up-speed, or down-speed?... and what is the estimated minimum for ok/good results? Well both are equally important, if you have a bad upload speed, you're going to seem warpy to others, and if you have a bad download speed, others are going to seem warpy to you. Either can make gameplay worse. There isn't any estimated bandwidth usage/required speeds yet, because features are still being implemented (which may increase or decrease either).
orappa Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 Download-speed is more important because when you upload data, you will only be uploading data for one person (you). When you download data, you will be downloading it for all persons in your vicinity. But as Jax says, upload speed is still important.
Blackhawk38 Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 i think the sync would be better as sa-mp.... the MTA-Team spent so much time on this mod so it must be better... I think it would be perfect...
orappa Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 It's impossible for it to be perfect. There are lots of factors that affect it.

When you download data, you will be downloading it for all persons in your vicinity. But as Jax says, upload speed is still important. Yes but you upload YOU to all the people on the server unless all the download and upload traffic goes thru the server, and the server sends all the data to everyone.
orappa Posted October 4, 2006 Posted October 4, 2006 It goes through the server. You never connect directly to other people.
