maddogx 10 Posted June 22, 2012 Arma2 admins tend to shy away from making 100+ player servers because these have been quite unstable in the past. Also, more players = more zombies = higher bandwidth and processing requirements.100 players may still be a little too high for the average server, but I think increasing to 60 or 65 would work in most cases. On the other hand, the net code has been greatly improved recently, so perhaps larger player numbers would work after all... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jemoeder 51 Posted June 22, 2012 Zombies are local? so when you get out of the town and if theres nobody else they will dissappear? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maddogx 10 Posted June 22, 2012 Zombies are local? so when you get out of the town and if theres nobody else they will dissappear?Oh yeah, I forgot about that...Well then, perhaps 100 player servers aren't that far off after all. Perhaps a couple of adventurous admins would consider it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sykotron 0 Posted June 22, 2012 They're not local, they're pathing calculations are just done locally and then trasmitted to the server in some fashion. It's probably on a zombie by zombie basis based on who the zombie's active target is and then transmitted to the server and then to the other players who aren't the zombie's active target.

Turin (DayZ) 3 Posted June 22, 2012 100+ players is an AWFUL idea. There's too much PvP deathmatching going on as it is. PvP encounters should be an infrequent occurrence.Really, if people just want action and to run around killing each other, they should go find a regular online FPS game to play.
