Now i understand why they waited with fauna. It would have been an unresponsive mess without server meshing.

[@Lucky-Seven_]

And this is just the beginning. When Dynamic Server Meshing comes online the game will start to feel like a server with only 20-30 people on it but there could be potentially 1000 people in the "shard" with you all flying around in multicrew ships.

[@DaringDan]

But they also made so much money saying it was coming soon. Lorville crab bug things in 2017? Those were right around the corner! Sand Wurm in 2016? So much cash. Space whales? microTech cows? So much money. So little delivery. Sorry. It's 2024. I was patient back in '16.

It's an unresponsive mesh with server meshing...

[@SwarthyD]

I was really impressed with this test. Yes things like missions and other features were not working…. but server meshing WORKS!!! I had no issue and had to pay hard attention to the shard info to even know if I changed servers. On top of that, in game performance was a night and day difference. High frames in cities, doors in ships instantly opened in things like a C2 where normally you have to stand at a door for 5 seconds before the game recognizes that you are standing there and every command I gave the game was instantly responsive. (For example in LIVE, to start a quantum jump may take a second or two to start after you hit the button) The rest of the game itself is a PTU patch, things get weird. But the server tech absolutely blew me away with how well it was working. So damn proud of CIG for this.

[@JullianChavez]

The interesting thing is that the last test consisted of each solar system having its own server, but only one server each. I thought that was going to be the first configuration of server meshing to hit live (whenever that happens), but this kind of blows my mind that they are testing multiple servers per system already. This is super promising because, as buggy as this is right now, it shows that whatever we get on live will be able to scale (and recover), even if it's static and not dynamic. We could get an entirely different configuration at release. The fact that we are finally at a point where the barrier to server meshing is just bug fixing, and not it existing in the first place, is insanely exciting!

[@JullianChavez]

@@trinityx3o522 lol, agreed

[@JullianChavez]

@@MrCabbage-qz2vd To be clear, this still isn't "dynamic" server meshing. This is "static", which means they had to manually set the servers to "static" boundaries (e.g planets and interplanetary space) "Dynamic" would mean that some backend service determines that a new server is needed for an area (either due to performance or because an entity entered an area without an assigned server), and spins that server up automatically. In other words, the game kind of decides the amount of servers needed and where, instead of the devs manually doing it. It's still impressive they're at a point where they can manually configure which servers handle which gameplay areas

Global chat will disapear as we get closer to a full game, Chris Roberts where saying it. I also heard his employes saying similiar things. The thing is they want people to meet echother in the universe not thru a chat. And they want there to be "watering holes" where people go to meet other players and so on. The bars in game is one such location they where speculating about. Also there will be places where people can put up adds looking for work and hiring.

[@hawkzulu5671]

Server Meshing is still in its infancy. This weekend is the 1st time ever testing multiple servers for 1 solar system - and got the player count up to 800 - the results of these tests will help to tune the tech for putting it into the live sc universe - and is the final stages before Dynamic Server Meshing. If YOU were expecting a thing to be invented and BAM instantly all problems are solved without the need to even test and develop the tech - thats on you.

While yes, Star Citizen could've thrown server farms at the problem, for the convenience of Alpha testers. This is a lean solution used by every MMO from WoW on up. Using it in a CryEngine variant is mindblowing, though.

[@gian.4388]

Even in this first version it's already not even comparable to WoW or other MMOs, in this version you can see players and objects on different servers and interact with them in real time (for example by shooting them etc.) while remaining each in their own server, and also cross into one another seamlessly

[@MarkLee1]

When you say it's ingame you need to mention that its on the test server, not on live server. (PTU)

[@MyAmazingUsername]

My fear is that I will be landed at a POI. Then server crashes. I get thrown to another server. Replication server restores my parked ship. Another ship was already parked there on that switched server. The ships explode. Hehe. Edit: It's especially a problem because people leave ships and log out at all POIs already. Like at ground vehicle depots there's usually 8 ships permanently parked. I hope they do something to automatically teleport your ship to a safe spot when needed (another hangar, or on the ground further away from a POI, or slightly shifted if in space).

[@LucidStrike]

Server performance isn't necessarily effected THAT much by player count so much as player distribution. The more spread out players are, the more of the world the DGS has to simulate.

With dynamic server meshing, that will auto spool of another server, and connect it to the others who are processing that area.

[@vast634]

It changed the server whenever you where thrown out of quantum drive. Going from 18 Server FPS to 31

[@SpaceMike3]

I wonder what its like in a bunker or on an elevator during a recovery

[@hawkzulu5671]

Its just like the game pauses and then resumes. Bunkers are more tricky because if you took a mission and the bunker is not hostile - after you come back from the crash the mission is gone and you are considered trespassing so the turrets will open fire but they are working on the solution for cases like that

[@VFW-Mayer]

Not seamlessly, you dropped from quantum when you switched. I'm guessing because of the handshaking between the servers along your path, and when you spool your quantum up, it is checking along your new path for QED or other obstructions to include a server change along the way. I think the quantum spooling is deliberately part of the loading your intention to head in a direction in quantum.

[@dickduran]

QT is not. Server meshing ready yet its a bug not intended, affer they add the NEW QT it Will be seamless

[@VFW-Mayer]

@@dickduranI hope so, They should have tested it with CIG PC's and now they are trying to load balance between pings and a wider variety of PC's.

I wonder how much resources / month each client will require to make this happen.

In a fresh server with low player count, or really late night/early morning on work nights, you'll find high server FPS quite often. Ended up on a fresh one last night, with a 4 man drop team for the event bunkers, and the NPC's just about wrecked us, as we were unaware, and not suspecting it. Two incapped, and two wounded, all requiring a med bed at the end. It changed that tactic of COD run and gun for the rest of the night.

Like Star citizen is closer to starting it's real journey which is more content more story more gameplay bot solo & social as well as competitive. the ships shouldn't be the focus after 1.0 is out not entirely looking for more narrative based gameplay loops as well as expanding other loops to include more gameplay and variety. the new Launcher looks sweet however i was hoping they would bump some features in to it like a Friendslist and chat abilities with an in game overlay to allow you to open the overlay in other games just incase someone needs support etc like having it as allert ready in the future too. maybe have to create that in code if ever i learn to code.

[@sidrat2009]

GTA6 is likely a console exclusive so won't impact a PC exculsive at all. If people have console & A PC then they'll make the same decisions they do now. GTA 6 may be more of a daily game compared to Star Citizen but only because there isn't a reason to play SC every. If there's a FOMO reason to play SC it's going to lose. Fear Of Missing Out is why Elite Dangerous is already dead to me. I will keep following it because I want it to be good. It hasn't been for some time. Fear Of Missing Out is why I don't play those MOBO seasonal free to play games. Warframe doesn't have FOMO and is free to play and I've put almost as much gaming budget to it to support that development as I have in Star Citizen. Although I don't get to have LTI ships but that's okay I guess. If you & the stranger could have been on out of game comms we would have known what happened to the both of you and one day soon neither would drop when changing server, but how far can SHOULD a stowaway remain on ship for? Until they log out? Until they're discovered and ejected in to space or on a planet wearing only a flight suit and helment and a med & O2 pen you give them gratis? Or if they're not discovered and log out they wake up in their primary bed? Questions for 2027 I reckon. Squadron 42 isn't coming out in the next 18 months at least but what do we know really? That it's feature complete? Fun to play? Open world with a story line behind it ala the X4 series? So many question marks and I'm not even a mid tier Batman nemesis.
