KeyCat 131 Posted July 10, 2002 My experience with the new 1.75 sockets netcode is good! Have yet to try any larger scale battles (i.e 24+ players) but our co-op tests with 4-6 players was all smooth and a great improvement over previous versions. Have you checked you packet loss to the servers? This is more important than the actuall ping time and everything above 0.5-1% is a indication that something is wrong! Would be great to hear others experince with the new 1.75 sockets netcode. Espescially if you tried any larger scale battles via Internet! /Christer (a.k.a KeyCat) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
habdoel 0 Posted July 10, 2002 i'v played some nice games with 16+people running great. I'v ride along with 3 others in a hummer, not a single lag. But somethimes its a bit laggy wen some slower internet connections are in. (i'v got still a problem, i can't talk in the mp game, see topic mp for noobs).

Mister Frag 0 Posted July 16, 2002 There are lots of factors that determine the playability of OFP in MP mode, but V1.75 and the socket implementation are vastly improved over earlier versions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
russin 0 Posted July 16, 2002 yes this is a very good multi-player game and some times shit happens isp problems bugs etc but you get this with all games hold your breath and dive in we run a dedicated server most all the time but do too recent changes to game and up-grade the server it's been on and off alot it's up now RoughNecks server ip for direct connection 205.200.157.33 this a Central Canada server Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kep Kelagin 1 Posted July 16, 2002 Well, I think BIS did an outstanding job with this new netcode, because I never got that much fun in multiplayer as with Resistance   I often play with a squad I recently joined, and they have a dedicated server with a 64 k upload  cable internet connection wich he also shares with another pc, and we play with 12 players max, and there seems to be no lag at all..All missions on this server have loads of vehicles and stuff on them, and gameplay is great   I don't think that this would be possible with the " old " V1.46 netcode . So for me the new V1.75 code is working just fine  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mora2 0 Posted July 16, 2002 With my dsl connection 256/128 i was the other day playing with 24 ppl in "German troopers" and i was shooting down the helos with my abrams from more than 750 meters... If you don´t see there an improvement then you are blind... Edit:I live in Spain and the ping was 130ms In previous versions having more than 100 ms meant lag Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Long 1 Posted July 18, 2002 Yes, the code is great, but all the good Maps (like EveronWar1.5A) have to be redone. CWC-maps _will_ behave strange on O:R. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
