dcxbox Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 will it be like gtat which can support 96 players? i remeber reading on gtat message board that its possible to have up to 128 maybe. i was just wondering if we can finally have a larger game because the game world is too much for 26 or 32 players. also will we have networked features like gtat is supposed to add, like the gtat comunity where u earn money for you and your clan and u can buy weopons and temporary sheidls and what not? either way i can't wait to play but these would be some great additions to the game giving it a mix of great death matches and clan wars and a feel of an mmorpg type world Link to comment
Posty Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 GtaT "claims" to support 96, but it has never been tested for stability and lag. Also, wait and see for what info they release. Link to comment
OpiuM. Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 we hardly have that many ppl online playin MTA at one time... Link to comment

They haven't announced this yet, and they probably won't. also will we have networked features like gtat is supposed to add, like the gtat comunity where u earn money for you and your clan and u can buy weopons and temporary sheidls and what not?either way i can't wait to play but these would be some great additions to the game giving it a mix of great death matches and clan wars and a feel of an mmorpg type world Money is featured in GTA3:MTA, so I don't see why it wouldn't be featured in MTA:Blue. Also, I'm not sure that the team will do anything MMORPG-related, but Blue will be fully moddable, so someone else may. Link to comment

dcxbox Posted September 6, 2004 Author Share Posted September 6, 2004 actaully at times they have enough players, but not everyone who plays gta even plays mta yet, so making it bigger could help but those could be features allowed to be set up by who is running server so not ever server would allow that many but the ones that do u can play on. and the comunity like featurs with money and all could be added to mta and they could only apply to certain game types or whatever, but it would be a cool feature Link to comment
eAi Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 Well we have up to 600 people playing at a time... we expect that blue will increase this, so yes we could have larger servers. Whether we will is another matter. eAi Link to comment
Moderators HAZJ Posted September 6, 2004 Moderators Share Posted September 6, 2004 will it be like gtat which can support 96 players? If it support 96 players ill send you my pants. Well we have up to 600 people playing at a time... OMG, now i guess what blue will support Link to comment

He means that there will be at least 600 people online in all throughout all servers. Link to comment
orappa Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 will it be like gtat which can support 96 players? If it support 96 players ill send you my pants. Well... wasn't the MTA player limit due to limitations in the SCM? And now they're not using the SCM, so who knows, maybe they can. Link to comment
OpiuM. Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 yea...but the lag..... Link to comment
orappa Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 yea...but the lag..... Yeah, but the main thing is that it supports 96 (or more) players Link to comment
Moderators HAZJ Posted September 6, 2004 Moderators Share Posted September 6, 2004 Not 600 ppl in a server. He means that there will be at least 600 people online in all throughout all servers. Of course, i thought it was all the servers. Almost 32 players in every server, will blue support 64? i think yes. Link to comment
OpiuM. Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 lol, yea......i can see it now "the server SUPPORTS 20000000000000000000000000000000000000 people, now, if we could just stop them from lagging out...................." EDIT: HAZJ or whatever your name is, think of it like this, Blue is more synced...meaning more packets. on top of that people can make custom packets. added more bytes per second. changing the framework of MTA can only do so much...... doubling the player load isnt a bright idea.

Moderators HAZJ Posted September 6, 2004 Moderators Share Posted September 6, 2004 (edited) HAZJ is my nick. in fact doubling the server load isnt good, and i agree with you, cos think on the bandwidth load. There will not bandwidth for all. Edited September 6, 2004 by Guest Link to comment

Kent747 Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 what gtaT does to support more players and cars than allowed by the SCM is to only load vehicles and actors that are in your vicinity... In a perfect world this works... however everyone has noticed that people like to try to horde all cars to one location, or to congregate in one area.... in this situation, the game could still crash for anyone within that vicinity... The limitation is not only SCM restricted, the actual engine can only handle loading so much... so its something we could try to implement (and its something we've talked about since GTA3MTA 0.3b).. but stability is a major concern, especially when you get into discussion of servers supporting hundreds of players.

orappa Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 But will it support more than 26 though? It says in the mtaserver.conf file that it originally supported 32, but you cut it down to 26 for stability reasons (if I remember correctly). Link to comment
