Lot of Beta keys given out

[wildtaz999]

Lag stinks out on the east coast.. I was out visiting friends and we had like 10people playing during a Lan party this weekend.. I know it was not our systems since most of us get 23 to 40 Frames per sec.. I mean that is with just a stand gaming system.. I am running dual 2200 amd xp with 2gb of ram and dual SLI Nvidia cards. but this game still runs smoth for about 1 min then freees for a sec while my system catches up with the servers then it runs smooth again for a nother few mins then freezes.. The same thing used to happen to me on Starwars Galaxies before they installed all the new servers and added mid west, east and eroupe servers.. and remeber everyone this is beta so I am sure we are playing on a rack of servers in a closet somewhere.. LOL I just hope that once the final build of the game is realeased for testing they kill all of accounts and let us sign in to the real Live servers 2 do the final test. then we will be able to see what this game can do.. I mean look at G3 they had a little sign that said that Disney plans that over 100,000 people will play the free verison the day the game goes live, and of those half will want to play the real game by subscribing, and the little sign also said that Disney plans on have 50 servers worldwide running the game.. so Like you are all saying we really dont know anything and each day brings something new... :-)

Happy testing everyone

I am new to the forums, but not to beta testing online games. I am actually shocked that there is talk of it going live anytime soon. Do not mistake this as a bashing. There are many aspects of this game I am looking forward to once they are flushed out.

I do not have a high end PC anymore, but still can pull down constant 60fps in WOW, Guild Wars, DAoC, BF2 and CS:Source. (And looking at the rig from above wildtaz should have 0 issues with framerates). WoW in a battlefield with 60 plus folks going at in on the screen no less. The pipe or the hops should be a non-issue for well written net code, which appears to be the culprit. As argued further above, with only 60 or so folks on a night, spread across to game worlds, that shouldn't tax it a current high end system. I can run a 32 player BF2 server on my rig and DSL connection sans issues.

And since this all speculation, maybe the devs are coding on the server directly... Someday we will all run RAM Disks and Fiber to the house...

Well all this springs from Disneys online own announcement that it wud release late spring.

On game estimates, they usually get pushed back, and online ones even more so.

Who knows when it will come out.

On the fps part, I have Pentium D915 dual core, 1.5gig of ram and 256meg geforce 7600gs, and i get average of 30fps, when its not lagging, whcih TBH is most of the time.

But im sure that they using limited server capibility, and once they crank them all up, it will get better.

Unlike their sister game TT, this is not unique enough, to not take seriously, the competition is out there.

With similiar games, and if they want to take some of the market share, they will have to get this working well, and they will take as much time as they need, regardless of what they may tell the press to keep them off their backs.

yes, before this game opens, they'll need to fix the bugs first.

yes, when they buy a bigger server, the game will go more smoothly

So, we'll just wait lol.
