He elaborated for me, basically, the number of players on at one time has doubled since Little Orbit took the wheel, the new servers mean that they can offload instances to help with lag.

AsgerLund 1271 Posted May 30, 2018 I'm really really digging the openness, but my poor brain is having major issues computing official communication on the official APB forum. Keep it up though, I will do the cognitive catch-up in due time!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed. This kind of solution-oriented outlook we've seen from Matt and the rest of LO is a great indicator that APB is in good hands now. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zoriya 3 Posted May 30, 2018 Hey, this is tangentially related, but it's a question I've been sitting on for a long time. Will it ever be possible to get district servers in other countries such as Australia, but still be part of Jericho? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KurtKlops 17 Posted May 30, 2018 As you know, us players are an impatient bunch. Every time we have to play against cheaters we cant help but think "will they ever roll out the first patch?". Threads start to pop up from people doubting LO will get it done. Thank you Mr. Scott for this kind of information. It shows LO is working on many fronts and that you are willing to give insight on a level, few Gaming companies have ever done. It reminds us that beside the mountain of work you have to get done, new things happen almost every day. Please keep it up, best of luck and Greetings from Germany Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KyoukiDotExe 231 Posted May 30, 2018 1 hour ago, MattScott said: The new servers allow us to offload an instance here and there to help the servers perform better. But mostly we just need to keep pace with the growth. Does that mean the previous servers were not able to? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't quote me on it, but I think he means that the previous servers were all filled up and the idea is to help spread out the load more evenly across servers to keep any single server from getting overloaded with players.

LilyV3 323 Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) Hello Matt, nice to hear something specific. Would you probably als post something about what the plans are for imporving server performance? in the past G1 changed to those softlayer servers which were supposed to be soooo much better, but they never were any better at all. heres the old blog and pics about performance stuff https://apbreloaded.gamersfirst.com/2015/02/new-apb-servers.html Edited May 30, 2018 by LilyV3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

evergIade 24 Posted May 30, 2018 3 hours ago, MattScott said: Simply put, the initial lag was out of our control, and we have been on mitigation ever since which creates lag, but we also messed up and made the situation worse over the weekend. Please accept my apologies. We're a little new a this. There's no need to be sorry Matt, you're doing a great job shedding light on this community. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
