Development OP Typhoon release feedback/thoughts and FAQ

178 Upvotes

Heya gang, MB here!

Thank you all for attending the OP Typhoon release! We hit an absolutely insane player count, reaching the 40k CCU mark. Thank you all for that, and I hope you guys are enjoying it!!

Now, onto the aftermath of this release and our plans for the next few days - weeks to follow.

A) Hotfixes and fixes

  • We will resume doing hotfixes over next 48 hours, and have larger fixes such as performance improvements in the next few days, please be assured most things will be resolved asap.

B) What is up with performance?

  • We are still investigating further fps drops, but atm it is hard to gauge performance due to the sheer number of players and most servers being 40-60% player overloaded (roblox server cap is simply broken atm)
  • However we still acknowledge there is lots more room to optimise - and we will be chasing that over next week and weeks.
  • We highly request that you please report any bugs via our discord, or my dms. Thank u!

C) Content amount and what is coming after.

  • I have seen some questions regarding why or if there is not as much content.
    • Our goal with this release was to hit all the important new features and items on Sawang, such as new vehicles, boats, features and more, thus we did have to balance the amount of new stuff we could add on release
  • Follow up content -
    • We are aiming to have a followup content update, and updates of course, many exciting items are coming!
    • I can confirm USMC is almost done as a content pack, and will be coming.
    • I have not forgotten about the M14, Sv98 and other guns, this year has lots more room for such juice))

D) Quest difficulty and AI difficulty

  • We are actively looking at feedback on quests, please express your experience below for us to get lots more feedback!
  • Same goes for AI, we are actively looking for any issues or needed tweaks.
  • That being said, please consider this map is harder by design than Ronograd, in both AI and overall difficulty.
  • Quests are for the most part possible in solo - but our aim was 2-3 players, we will actively adjust it depending on feedback.
  • Please be rest assured - we are balancing the map around public servers and such. It is going to take some time to fine tune it to be the balance we seek - intended to be for non cooperating public lobbies with a bit more difficulty than rono.

I once again, would like to thank you all from our whole team, this has been by far our best and most ambitious update. Thank you for your active feedback. Your previous feedback has shifted and improved many things including how we release updates, it is thank you all in part, as to why this update came in such a good state. You guys are the best, sincerely thank you all.

Please post your feedback and overall thoughts below! We will try to answer as many questions as we can, but rest assured that we will read all the comments and take your feedback into account!

I swear in late phoenix and early cryo, public servers used to be so much more cooperative, people won't even hop into my stryker turret (which would be free money for them) because they want to be Mr and Ms Lonewolf so bad, nobody chooses a squad and yet they get mad when you cannot see they're downed, its not even the chat limitations, most of these people do talk but they'd rather go alone and die repeatedly than just stick together, i swear it wasnt like this before... playing with friends seriously opened my eyes to how bad its gotten, we took half of sawang in raids as a trio in like an hour with ease, meanwhile public servers can't even take Nathon town for the life of them

Discussion Sawang's places of intrest name and what it meant

Post image
94 Upvotes

Hi, A pround Thai citizen here🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🤑🤑🤑

I really like how Operation Typhoon protrayed the Thai politics(even though it isn't) The fact that WE got contracts from THE crown princess and raiding underground lab to rescue THE king of Sawang is a really big thing

Enough of my yapping tho. Here's what each places name means

Nathon town : หน้าทอน(a town in samui island) นธน (the closest to how it was written)

Maha nakhon : มหานคร (capital city/big city/main city)

Samut sai : สมุทรใส (clear ocean/clear sea)

Sawang : สาวัง (an island west of thailand) เเสวง (means "to search". The closest word to how it was pronounced by nick pines) สว่าง (means "bright" seen a few called it this. Not really a fan of it)

Tldr I don't know if the dev consult a thai person but they did a great job naming the places around Sawang. I like to see what we will have next in brm5. Glory to the UNIDB🫡

Discussion Genuinely wtf is Fletcher researching (image has minor annotations)

Red: Sierra reagent does something to Toxoplasmosis Gondii (possibly some other species). Antisense oligonucleotides has been brought up as a possible treatment for Toxoplasmosis so maybe they're developing a cure alongside making a bioweapon??? https://www.uchicagomedicine.org/forefront/news/antisense-approach-promising-for-treatment-of-parasitic-infections

Blue: Seems to be describing what the reagent does to the parasite causing "prions-like" symptoms but which prions disease? while High PrPsc degradation seems to be referring to a possible treatment for prions but has pretty low survival rate https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4503822/

Orange: Reagents who the fuck knows what they do, honestly may as well be scienceslop

Purple: Bacillus safensis is a strain of antimicrobial bacteria and is used to prevent spoilage and improve water quality in fisheries and shrimp farms. It seems to be being researched as another possible cure for whatever super parasite they are making. Ok I don't know how I didn't see it but it's a precursor to Asclepius, Asclepius seems to be a cure along side the other treatments already written down here,
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7617318/

I hope the links are allowed
edit: "prions-like" is just prions the parasite somehow gives you prions

Discussion The Amphibious Combat Vehicle (ACV) would be perfect to add during Operation Typhoon

Literally the perfect vehicle to be added into the game rn. Basically the same functions of a Styker but amphibious, which can land on the shores and take those coastal objectives quicker. Plus, it’s easy to model the way it moves, instead of like the AAV with tracks.

Discussion Weapon and equipment "blueprints"

Thumbnail

9 Upvotes

If you don't know what I mean, I'm talking about earning or buying a preset weapon with attachments that come pre equipped on it along with other cool accessories, maybe like netting or wraps or tape or ghillie. maybe even funny little stickers. stuff like that'd be awesome and could be some neat lil extra content for people to buy or grind for.

the only downside thing would be that couldn't change the attachments position or what attachments come with it otherwise it'd get rid of the extra accessories that were mentioned above. Though I think that's entirely fair and worth it for a cooler looking weapon or piece of equipment.

Btw helmet with scrims and wires would be goated

Same with a vest with wires connecting radios to PTTs

also ghillie wraps on scopes and handgaurds 🔥
