BL1P 252 Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) Quote from rocket on the Confirmed Server Management Options :- "In addition, we also want to provide passworded servers that will operate on their own shard of the database. This shard could be grouped, so that a group of passworded servers could operate on their own database." So I was wondering how these grouped Servers would work. Are we looking at the possibility to have clusters or MMP running a set of coordinated computations in parallel.Allowing us to have 1 instance of the hive and mission being ran across several servers at once with all players connected to the group showing up on each of the grouped servers at once ?Example 5 servers grouped with 40 players on each would equal 1 cluster of 5 with 5x40 players all on the cluster at once. I doubt it but one can dream. If not how would the grouped servers function ?Could you not just server hop in the group to gain access to a base area that you cannot do without server hopping ? Unless the servers in a group run in parallel I cant see how it would work. Heres hoping a Dev can answer my layman's questions and shed some light onto this !

DSMIC 1 Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) You've got some very good questions, It's doubtable, but IF they got that to work, consoles and PC's could possibly play together.This could almost eliminate server hopping as well Edited January 1, 2014 by DickSmashMcIronCock Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
