If you host a server somewhere, you don't get to choose the path/route everyone's connections take to your server. The only thing you can choose is the source of your connection (the backbone it's on, based on the options provided by your hosting p…

(Quote) And the real crux of the matter is, as ElinUsagi said, without checks and balances the problem only gets worse over time. It's not even necessarily about "casual" vs. "hardcore" but also about newly-arriving players. O…

(Quote) They were testing the server infrastructure -- the data center and architecture. So they would have gotten what they wanted by observing how people's ping times were and how stable things were.

(Quote) I honestly don't think server transfers were ever designed to be this giant profit center, even though they charge money for it. You charge money because you want people to think twice before moving around since it disrupts server stabilit…

(Quote) Well, that much is clear. All their brand new projects are already on UE4.

(Quote) The problem with that, incidentally, it's that it's taking a nostalgia-filled view of the past in implying that the entertainment industry hasn't always about finding ways to pull on people's addictive/collector nature and extract the most …

(Quote) When this happens, do you hear anything? Does anything seem to be going on or does it just seem to be stuck that way indefinitely? To be on the safe side, I would try a repair from the Tools section of the Launcher, but if that doesn't he…

I've suggested this before as well, and do think it's a good idea. All the content is actually instanced anyway, so the only real trick is to have a shared server act as the messaging broker for this system. The challenge here is that some of the …

(Quote) You're reading too much into it; it's just supposed to be cute... All the Baraka are portrayed in the game as kind souls, and he's just too shy and nervous to approach the group of Elin. (Elin are usually portrayed as much more aggressive …

(Quote) But like I said, that still won't make everyone happy because people's choices will get rejected in earlier rounds and then they'll either not vote, or vote for a choice they didn't like out of spite (and be bitter about it still).

(Quote) That's not how a first-past-the-post voting system works; more people voted for Valkyrie than any of the other choices. And even if you did up a second round with just the two top choices (so that a majority vote would be required to win), …

I suspect the rate on the Dragon Boxes is probably the same as 150 EMP lootboxes. Except they're more expensive. In the past when EME had more expensive lootboxes they also had better odds to make up for the price, but I don't think that's the cas…

(Quote) Well.. as was said, holy thread necro, but the project to port TERA to mobile is a separate thing, as is the project to port TERA to consoles (recently announced). But yes, two of their announced projects are still on PC, though it remains…

(Quote) If by "big" you mean a colossal failure of epic proportions that nearly doomed the company, then yes -- it was big. The game itself was fun and it felt like there were a lot of people playing together (doing things like forming BA…

Yeah, those different traceroutes tell a pretty convincing story of the network issues, at least -- your connection is much more stable when streaming is off than when it's on. And I suspect that it's the encoding of the video while streaming that …
