Robin Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 You're not going to have 1,000 people playing your game at once, kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbatz Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Are you asking can more players play your game other than 70? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Janes Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 EO can handle more than 70 quite easily, it'll come down to your specs of your server but don't expect thousands of players on a single device, you'd need to consider load balancing and perhaps storing player data and environment data across on cloud if you're lookin for something very big, not sure EO or even VB6 is your way to go.

pixelspore Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 @Captain:> Winsock actually has a limit to how many connections.Damn, as i thought.Oh well, ill have to avoid this by spliting everything into multiple servers, it might bring problems :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Janes Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 If you are deteremined to stick with VB6, you could always swap out Winsock with a 3rd party socket that handles data a bit more efficently and limitless connections (albeit you'll still want to consider load balancing for something with a lot of players). Catalyst Socket is one that comes to mind, or Dart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not making a 1K player game that's english when you aren't the best at it. It just wont happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall some very nice Spanish Eclipse games some years ago, had a decent playerbase too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myron Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 @Whack:> Seriously, if English is not your native language, give it up.If you aren't going to give better advice, then **give up** on trying to advice people.What you're basically saying is that if someone's native language isn't English, he or she shouldn't even think of making an English game because it won't happen.This explains everything, no wonder my games always failed. It's because I'm Dutch and not English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specially, if your game is made with Eclipse. In my opinion, 20-40 players is a lot for a Eclipse-based game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
