    There are equivalent to 33 global tiks by default. They’re supposed to be more asynchronous so that might help but that just sounds like trying to hide how much load your server actually should have. They’re also not dedicated when coming from valve they’re using dynamic cloud hosting. That gets thrown around as dedicated for console games but that is not what I dedicated server is.

    I don’t know if valve calling their cloud hosting dedicated, I haven’t been following since the beta. I have seen stories where sites are reporting valves dedicated servers but they don’t offer dedicated servers.

    They did this with 1.6 and the source Mac update previously. They’ve just completely changed the game and the feature set before it’s nothing new. This time they just change the name of the game with it, instead of claiming a balance patch.


  • Nintendo online is even more shitty than the others. We still have zero games with dedicated servers splatoon smash none of them have dedicated servers which is the whole point in why they needed to charge a fee. You might like having the old games on the emulator for the monthly fee and that would be fine but there’s no reason to charge for matchmaking. Matchmaking and leaderboard should be free it might cost like 5 to 10 cents per year per user and they make way more than that with the 30 to 50% licensing fee for each game. To make the Nintendo one even worse third parties still have to pay for online services even though Nintendo also charges the customer. So if you buy a game that wants to use matchmaking or leaderboards they have to pay Nintendo additional fees for you to use them even though the customer you’re all so paying the fee for the same service
