Saturday Stress Test (01/21/2012)

yep, lag went away after the reboot, then went back up big-time on the way to tickle the dragon's toe. How many people were online for the test?

[Newsound]

250-320... not too shabby Yeah, whatever you did with the packet compression totally fixed the lag issues until I jumped to Tat... then it was rubber band city for everyone around me...

Also, my group was remarking how nice it was to see the huge mobs of animals out there... Very fun

[Lavarios]

That is a good number of people. Out of curiosity, how many people are on Liberator at one time ?

[Pennywise]

SOA showed up to the event.

Liberator is averaging between 500-600, but we've had up to 1800 on Liberator before. We can get the same numbers on Nova with a more even dispersion of players. We found some concurrency issues that should help fix some lag too.

Yea I noticed it at times. When the toons I had following me took what felt like 15 seconds to catch up to me lol

I want to thank every one of the staff for the fun time during the test. hats off to your all.

[Vlada]

I dont know about the rest of you but i had tons of fun. Thank you all for participating and a huge thank you to Devs and QA for making all this possible.




P.S. Screenshots from the event are already posted on our Facebook and Google+ pages.

Grrr... My wifi had to act on me precisely today. Now I have my toons stranded in the prison in dath.

BTW, I logged in two toons, and had one on follow. The main had to stop several times, got the swoop at less than one third health (stopping in Dath is dangerous to your health) and the second toon got behind anyways. That was when my wifi kicked me.

In the Cnet event, trying to craft was basically impossible due to the lag. So I had one toon trying to craft a pistol for the other, that was ineffectually shooting with the uncertified frog-provided pistol. In the end, I let the pistoleer keep pea shooting while the other grabbed a T21 from the frog and started spamming HS3.

Planting a house was fun, and furnishing it with a spaceship crafting station let me build a YT1300, that I couldn't reclaim because the NPC is not there. It gave me a taste of Shipwrighting, and I see in the future a lot of resource surveying and sampling.

Wanted to drop in but am working today The screen shots look fantastic!

Heya, I'm new to this community, but I stopped in for the test. Pretty much everything was smooth on my end. Only a few chunks of lag here and there. I was getting updates from everyone else, but my combat seemed very slow and rarely updated, even while everyone else was cranking on Vader and even the Gorax. This was later followed by me being stuck in combat, unable to escape or peace out. Anyway, I was very impressed by what you guys have done. It brought back a lot of memories. (I played SWG from beta till a week after JTL dropped, and of course... everything that followed)

Chars: Ssgrlkrr Zoob on Nova, Elxhaer Zoob on Liberator.
