big Battle = Big lagg

[SubZeroAnarchy]

Yesterday on sunday, about 500 Trran Republic Soliders (including I) werte gearing up to invade cyssor.

When we did invade cyssor I experinced lag trying to land to get out the troops. It was veryy laggy cause there were rickets flying and bullets 2... Im wondering if that big Battle = Big lagg?

System specs and connection?

I would imagine there will be lag in large battles for some people. Make sure to adjust your graphics sliders accordingly.

Considering the spelling.. I would say he has a geforce 2 ti and that he runs the game at highest graphics
I know I suck in english but there is always limits

Usually yea, the more people on the screen at the same time, the more lag. Kinda a given in any game.

im suprised that there isnt alot of lag, + when i try to lanbd inside a ase it lags lol

bases = new stuff for yer vid card to draw and info for yer CPU to process, it's normal for it to lag then.

When the continent get very large amounts of people, the continent tends to get laggy and crash once in a while.

Throughout the beta, the devs have consitantly made improvements and optimizations that allow for more players on a continent with less lag. I expect these improvements to continue throughout the rest of Beta. (it is really amazing how fast the devs are optimizing)

I think Auraxis have gotten pretty close to holding 2000 total players.

I think continents start having problems when they aproach 600 players, but it could be more than that now since I do not know of a way to check the number of people on a continent, except when the GMs shout out the number.

I'm told that everyone crowding into Cyssor is a problem. Hopefully they'll come up with a carrot/stick fix for it that spreads out the population.

I have the same specs as you subzero. except i have a gforce 3 64 MB and i have lil to no lag in large fights. I was in one the other day with about 300 TR and 300 Vanu. You should have seen my screen, i took a SS cuz it was just blue and red dots on my radar lol. It was crazy, but anyway, i just dont get that much lag and most of hte times it plays very smoothly for me.

If everyone crowding on to Cyssor is a problem now, what happens on Tuesday or Wed when all of the open beta testers arrive and every continent turns into Cyssor?

You will crash alot, the continent will crash alot, and you will see lots of lag.

All of these things will help the devs optimize their code. This a beta afterall and this is the stress test/optimization portion of the testing.
