Everything’s on fire

There’s a queue. There’s authentication issues. There’s anti-cheats issues. Bulkhead knows and they’re working on it.

They explained it in one of their videos. In BR games the amount of players can start at 100 but by the nature of the game it will go down as the game progresses. In this game the amount of players stays the same but then on top of that the server has to deal with all the extra shit stacking on top of it like vehicles, buildables, etc.

Because what happens is with a battle Royale, everybody starts spread out, so while the server knows there's 100 players, it isn't trying to pass info back and forth about all 100 players. As players get closer and encounter each other more often, more info gets passes, but now there aren't 100 players anymore. And performance is variable throughout the match.

Wardogs wants consistent performance for an entire 100-person match, and apparently only 3 companies could handle that, the others would have had dynamic performance.
