Guest Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 /me hopes 26 players wont be such a drag 26 is enough. 30 would be good but beyond that would be an amazing feat. Link to comment
NosGoth Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 They already have support for 32 players Twig. Link to comment
Si|ent Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 And you have seen that confirmed where NosGoth? Link to comment
TmM_Ryan Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 i think he ment hes seen a 32 man server so he thought that 1 had support Link to comment
NosGoth Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 And you have seen that confirmed where NosGoth? If heared it straight from Cray (Crish McArthurs) mouth. HERE! Link to comment
MAD_BOY Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 1. that's and old vid 2. that was about when mtavc still supported 32 3. so before the limit was pushed back cause of problems Link to comment
NosGoth Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Okay my bad. Won't open my mouth ever again. Link to comment
Cray Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 More than 32 players is theoretically possible within the game constraints, but practical player counts may never reach that high. At this point (when a testing stage has not yet even been thought of), it is hard to determine what the real max players will actually be. That being said, we are striving for 32 players, but anything can change at this point. It may turn out to be 10, it may be 50, it could be our target ... who really knows ... time will tell. P.S. It is Chris McArthur btw. Link to comment
Scorp Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 how would it be with bandwith if u got so much players 32+? i would be glad for the people that could enjoy such high player limit but I myself could never play against such an amout of players.. well maybe for a day or 2 then slumbering offline till' i got new bandwith. but just ignore the bandwith here, i want as high max player limit as possible for u lucky internet users that have flatrate edit: of course now i wasen't thinking about the connection speed, we still want the dial-up users to stay right?

NosGoth Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 P.S. It is Chris McArthur btw. I know just a typo there m8. Link to comment
Kent747 Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 the new netcode hasn't been finalized yet, we are still finding more ways to compress data, as it is now, its much more efficient than the previous core, but we aren't going to stop there the real issue has more to do with the structure of GTA and perhaps some new implementations to the server... either way we'd rather it be stable with less players than giving people the ability to create an arbitrary number of max players and have stability problems.

StAnToN Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Yes, at the end of the day you have to still think about the number of 56k users that use MTA, as we cant just set the limits too high as 56k users will have a hard time playing, i myself have got DSL (Broadband) and yes i would like a high number of players (32) but just remember that most of the people playing MTA have a 56k connection Link to comment
Slothman Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I wouldn't say most of the people use 56k. a good percentage, but im betting most of us have highspeed. Link to comment
NosGoth Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 [...] that most of the people playing MTA have a 56k connection I don't think most people. Ofcourse theres a select few who are on 56k but Ibelieve the number of 56k users are way less then you think. Alot of people have >DSL or Cabel nowadays. Link to comment
StAnToN Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I think more poeople have 56k than dsl or any other highspeed internet! Link to comment
Scorp Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I think more poeople have 56k than dsl or any other highspeed internet! maybe a poll about connection speeds could give us some indication not sure if there's been a poll about connection speed in the past.. Link to comment
eAi Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Well, we're not going to "dump" 56K users any time soon, but theres the steam poll at http://www.steampowered.com/status/survey.html which gives a sort of indication of the percentages using each connection speed. As you can see, non broadband users are in short supply: Unspecified 32,613 8.63 % 14.4 Kbps 295 0.08 % 28.8 Kbps 510 0.14 % 33.6 Kbps 294 0.08 % 56.0 Kbps 7,315 1.94 % 112.0 Kbps 16,579 4.39 % 256.0 Kbps 112,602 29.81 % 768.0 Kbps 98,134 25.98 % 1,024.0 Kbps 109,401 28.96 % Clearly we aren't steam, and we're not a content delivery platform, but thats a survey of gamers, so it should be fairly accurate. eAi Link to comment
StAnToN Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Oh, that has shocked me quite alot actually i thjought there would be more 56k people! Link to comment
SOI-Horus Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Here in Finland 56k users (who happen to be the minority) don't usually play any online games at all because of the crappy gameplay. I think that 4/5 of Internet connections here in Finland are DSL's. *Proud owner of 1 Mbit/512 kB connection* Link to comment
StAnToN Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Yep i have a 512kb conenction and hoping to upgrade to a 1mb connection Link to comment
