      So Intrepids version is called dynamic gritting, while the tech CIG is developing is server meshing (first static) and later dynamic server meshing using an entity graph system.
      The point is that CIG is currently testing static servermeshing internally and some public tests, where as Itrepid wants to test it qith alpha testers now.
      I am curious about what works how good and when. Not that it would be compareable. Intrepid has relatively "low" polygons with limited actions and CIG needs a totally different system that aids action combat and huge moving spaceships with multiple fully physicalised planets.
      Lets see how Intrepid does it.

      Also server meshing is nothing new planetside 2 had it in 2011, its hex based system on 64 square km map with 1200 slot per continent, and it need sync bullets and stuff and fps is much more dynamic game especialy in 100v100 situation than an mmo. I remmber like 10 years ago they said star citized relase in one year i was studying then, now i am 34 and star citizen didint relased yet lol.

    Network engineer, MMO enjoyer and occasional SC player here. As one commenter already pointed out, this is not fair comparsion. SC deserves tons of criticisms, do not get me wrong please. But this is not accurate. You are basically comparing motorcycle engine and truck engine, saying "this one is better because" but that in itself can not make sense because while both are pushing piston by expanding combustion gases, they are working on completely different scale and serving completely different purpose. Again, do not get me wrong, Interpid is making beautiful achievemtn which may push MMO genre forward a lot. I love what I see here. But it has absolutely no place in comparsion with SC because their tech is simply being developed for different purpose. if you would like more technical details and tech-blabla, I am happy to share buit this is already too long post which nobody will read anyway.

    A few things on what Narc said about both server meshing solutions is a bit incorrect.
    Microservices is not how the servers communicate together, they are the services like chat, mail and others that need to be distributed for management. It basically takes that job from the server so that the server doesn't need to worry about it and players can use these services no matter how broken the server they are on is. The servers are linked together not through microservers but through the grid communication. The servers only speak to what is adjacent and orthogonal to them.
    The replication layer would indeed be an issue for SC if it was like what the graph Intrepid showed, but it's more close to what Intrepid are doing. The rep layer in SC is just a bunch of services that communicate the client data and the server data with the database. We have yet to really see a bottleneck since the replication layer scales horizontally just like the server mesh.
    Server meshing isn't live in SC or AoC so it will be anyone's guess on how well either work when you have tons of players doing whatever they want. Exciting times are ahead for games. Something like Greyzone Warfare would be pretty cool with something like Server Meshing in a vast large world.

    • @PhurPher
      @PhurPher หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Correction, you are right that Narc is wrong, but you're slightly wrong in that the Microservices were primarily designed so that there could even BE things like communication across the server, since the server mesh technology inherently prevents servers sharing data past the immediate ones surrounding it.
      It's just that these microservices come with a few perks with it working that way(perks like you stated). Just like the centralized replication layer was done away with primarily due to the bottleneck, yet it came with perks like realm stability

    • @blazemonger1

      While true that Server meshing is not yet "live" in SC, the replication layer is and has show to work. In the tech tests with static meshing things also held up pretty well.

    • @AshU-ug2fy
      @AshU-ug2fy หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      SC just did a test with 800 players, that is the most any fps online game had ever done. In the last video they were saying they probably would have 800 players, but they needed to stress test it. They admitted to bugs, but it is overall working. Already our basic servers went from 50 player servers up to 100 player servers and that has become the new standard. Also, we can actually play SC and 4.0 is supposed to launch this fall/winter, which will bring Pyro, and server meshing will be live. It might get delayed, but by years end we are supposed to see SC server meshing live in action.

    I'm a fan of both projects but It's pretty crazy to say that AoC team has made a better Server Meshing solution than Star Citizen when you compare the real tests of both.
    - AoC Alpha 1 test with replication layer: 72km² static map + 1000 players + very limited dynamic objects and npc's = Completely bottleneck and need to change the entire SM system to work.
    - Star Citizen Alpha 3.22 tests with Replication Layer and Persistence Entity streaming (Entity Graph) : 750 millions km across of simulated space (full volume is way way bigger) + 17 full planets and moons with cities rotating in real time + thousands of npc's + 800 players with a minimum of 800 ships with physic grids + Millions of dynamic entities = Test worked better than expected.
    Maybe is way more complicated comparing both SM solution because the games are vastly different. Star Citizen combine PES(Entity Graph) with Micro-services + a decoupled replication layer + Object container streaming both client and server side etc... A lot of tech that sound similar but are way more complicated for a game like this :)

    Comparing this so intensely (competitively) to star citizen's server meshing tech is not really helping your argument. It looks a little disingenuous and isn't something you can compare cleanly; the data and precision needed for these two completely different games require different technology and specs in the meshing technology, so it's not like ashes 'figured it out where star citizen couldn't. I wanted to know more about Ashes' tech, but this just felt like propaganda lol

    I am super excited for AOC and not a Star Citizen fan boy at all so I hope this taken objectively, but to say what AoC is planning is the same as what Star Citizen is working on, is not fair at all. While I don't have a degree specifically in this area, I do in servers and databases, and from my understanding I would say the Dynamic Server Meshing of Star citizen is still a tier above what AoC has created and is planning for. BUT that is not a problem, because you don't need the fidelity needed like they are trying for in Star Citizen for an MMO, you don't need bullet tracking and high speed space sim elements tracking across multiple servers interacting with each other Or entire ships being servers themselves interacting with other people in servers around them. I do still have some questions on how AoC is going to handle abilities and things interacting across these mico servers without there being major bugs because I can't see them being able to get there minimum server size down to a point where that isn't needed. Async programing is HARD, extremely hard, and it will be exciting to see how they handle these issues.

    It is quite funny for old-timer IT people because this is an old architecture model that was used on fault tolerant hardware in the 1980/90s like Tandem and System/88, except in those days we couldn't connect multiple servers together faster than LAN speeds. And of course it was horrendously expensive.

    • @blazemonger1
      @blazemonger1 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Indeed, it is interesting to see people get all excited about tech which has been around for decades. At the same time though, the requirements of this tech in the context of these games is vastly more unique and demanding than it was back then.

    • @TheToledoTrumpton
      @TheToledoTrumpton หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@blazemonger1 Yeah, back in the 90s it was used for processing real time transactions like for point-of-sale, or stock markets. Which was pretty demanding, because you had to deal with authorization transmission times, or real-time pricing, given the WAN speeds. Remember no high speed Internet at the time.
      Think about racing cars back in the Ford vs Ferrari days. Just because the cars were going 30+mph slower, and the technology was older, doesn't mean that they were not pushing what they had to the limit, in terms of design or process.
      It is more that we haven't had to resort to complex software architecture, because processing times for most requirements are easily met more reliably these days with hardware upgrades.
      In fact the main difficulty (from what I can tell), is making server meshing work with Unreal Engine. If Unreal Engine was written with this architecture in mind then it wouldn't be as much of an issue

Anyone who's ever taken part in large pvp battles in an MMO before, should know how significant a problem it poses. They seem like they're on the verge of taking a step that all modern MMO's will follow in one way or another, at least if they're serious about providing players with a more reliable in game experience.

    I hope this works well but I don't think dynamically partitioning the world will be enough once players really try to gather in the same location if the servers are fully authoritative.
    I did prototype a similar system once and what I noticed is that at a certain occupancy level the split granularity made players change servers fast enough that it will actually add overhead.
    Of course this will only matter if ashes is popular enough and at that point I'd just be happy to have a new mmo to play.

    Overall great review Narc, I really felt like you took that heavy preview and thinned it out well for the rest of the community who couldn't be bothered to sit through it.
    One small issue about the microservices statement you made, but someone else here already covered that. Well 2 issue really, you also talked like Intrepid doesn't do layering because they won't lower their standards like that, but in reality they literally can't. The game is not designed in a way that accommodate layering or sharding WHATSOEVER. Due to the dynamic nature of the world like citizenship status, guild status, node status, quest arc status, ect ect.
    They have no other choice but to do this. Steven even mentioned that this was all a part of development, they didn't choose to do this after the fact, they knew from the outset that this was getting done. The game just flat out wouldn't work if they didn't do it, the worlds too big and too dependent on lots of large groups. Either they get this right or the game fails completely.
    I'd say that the same could be said about Star Citizen but lets not fool ourselves, the games going to fail completely either way. P2W dev welfare economy sim trash.

    I don't know why we're trying to compare Ashes of Creation and Star Citizen's server meshing. It's like comparing apples to oranges, they're both server meshing but they're inherently different in their own right. Star Citizen has a lot to be criticized about but the random digs throughout the video make it tough to watch. I come to watch Narc videos for AOC content, if I wanted to listen to SC criticism I would go to any of the other more informed SC content creators. We should be hoping both succeed in making that kind of tech work instead of "hurr durr my meshing is better than yours" when they're not even a real comparison. Either of them succeeding means a brighter future for MMO games

    I think this probably would’ve been a better response to the stream if every aspect of Intrepid’s solution to server tech limitations was covered in a separate video.

  • @blazemonger1
    @blazemonger1 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The "gridding" tech AoC is showing is not new either.. It's been around for a long time and was successfully applied in the otherwise failed MMO Dual Universe as an example. And you do not need a tick rate of 60 or even 30. Tick rate is only part of the solution and can be much lower than that, in fact a tick rate of 15 would probably be fine for a MMO like AoC.
    And indeed micro services ar not new either as they and you mentioned, it is a core part of the EVE server tech for instance and has been from the start.
    In the end, none of what Intrepid has shown is new except for maybe how they had to rework the way UE5 handles large players the way they need it to, as that engine by default can't. What is unique is how they apply these separate server technologies and on paper make it look like a great solution for the type of game AoC is.
    I hope they will be able to show their tech works, absolutely. But for now it is just talk and unproven. We'll find out during A2 if it all holds up, provided they get enough people to play.

    The multi-treading isn't done, not because it cannot be done, rather the game they are making has to run on the minimum spec machines. Now that AoC did this, I could only imagine that in order to play this game, I have to spend hundreds of dollars to upgrade my machine -- not gonna happen. If the minimum spec to play this game is too damn high, I'll play something else. If the can find a way to apply this multi-threading at low spec, that would be very impressive. So I'm still waiting and see what other IRL magic Intrepid can pull off.

    Pepperidge Farms remembers when Rift was going to change the future of MMOs with a teleporting sniper and EQNext was, too. After FFXIV, I went back to where I started, consoles. MMOs just weren't the same anymore, the community got far worse and console RPGs are a lot less 'update' or mod-reliant to raid. If this was ready when I quit PC MMOs 3 years ago, I would have been a Day 1 player. Hope this does well and the tech somehow eventually works with the limitation of console controllers.

      I would hope it's a case of getting this server mesh tech to work first; then you'd be working on the end of testing how to keep people from cheating. I feel like this type of mesh network will make some weird duping issue of items etc be a lot easier to pull off; but of course no way to know then to go into Alpha 2 and try and break the game etc and report it.

    having 500 people in one area should be possible if the server doesnt load the stash of each person every second like D4
    for real though, there should be a way to optimize the amount of data , you dont need new magic server tech
    if you combine optimization with new server tech though, it should be possible to have 1000 in one area, dont see the need for more.
    When questing I hope you dont see 40000 people in one area

    @edwardpaddock2528 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great video (obviously). Interesting topic. Technically, very impressive.
    However, I fear it will have the opposite of the desired effect.
    People often think they want things, that they, if fact, do not. A smaller server size is vastly superior, across the board, for the vast majority of the players, the vast majority of the time.
    A bigger pond, means fewer, and smaller, 'big fish' at the end of the day. You don't need an MMO to feel like a forgotten nobody, who knows nobody, and whom nobody knows, that is what IRL is for.
    It also is effected by how human brains work, but that gets kinda technical.
    So, I gotta say the tech is great, but the result will be an inferior experience for +/- 99% of the players.

    So whats the solve for like a busy starting area? Even server based MMO's that are popping have you sitting around for stuff because of over crowding. Unless i'm understanding it wrong? Is the map and content big enough to handle every last player sitting on the map?

    • @herobrine024
      @herobrine024 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Good question. We'll have to see how AoC and Star Citizen handle massive amounts of players in single locations. One solutions is to cap the player numbers at a number that supports such massive congregations, another is layering.
      Another problem besides the gameplay/map supporting vast amounts of players is the optimization of the game itself so that your PC can handle all the things it has to render on screen.

    • @johnnynometer
      @johnnynometer หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@herobrine024 Yeah I guess that's my worry. If they layer it kind of defeats the goal. I'm not concerned with processing as much as I'm concerned with overcrowding causing the game to be boring. Lol. I'm thinking about lines of people in wow classic for a quest Mob, or never being able to get a crafting node. I guess the tests will go a long way toward figuring that out I hope

      @@johnnynometer in Star Citizen when they raised player counts from 50 to 100 and had a server wipe, on day one, there were literal lines at the ship retrieval terminals.
      Because they are now adding physicalized cargo and persistent personal hangars, meaning players will spend much more time inside hangars, theyve relocated these terminals inside of the hangars.
      This indirectly solves this issue and prepares the gameplay for many more players playing on the same server, because these hangars are layered. But thats only possible because theyre rooms that only specific people have access to (think GTA Online Apartments with seamless doors to the outside). AoC is primarily in open environments so this wouldn:t be applicable to the game.

    • @kufkl
      @kufkl 22 วันที่ผ่านมา

      The entire framework they're developing is the solution to that issue. As more players would arrive in a single area, their dynamic server meshing would dynamically split and assign resources as needed, without the need for layering.
      It's a wait and see for how they'll implement starting areas but the zones themselves are vast.
      Quick Edit: I could see them having a few similar starting points per race to divvy players out and help with those issues. Could have players congregate a bit later on. Maybe you're assigned one of those locations and could override it if you wanted to start with your friend, etc. All speculation on that of course but only someone like Asmongold would be ruining that for most people I would think lol.
