Questions regarding Upcoming Server hardware configuration

[Aurelius]

Is it possible that admins can share the hardware configuration for the new server?
Also, will it have the same settings as x5? That being max capacity of 5k online?

Last time you had a good start (first half a day, excluding the login server ddos in first 2 hours) when server worked nicely. But after that we had a week of ddos and sh1ty playable conditions. Are you better prepared this time? DDoS attacks are bound to happen, it's a given. We hope you are well prepared this time!

bump, good question

to 8k online

[PleaseBleed]

will there be a test before the actual release (a stress test)

[bolo5]

what test u want after 6months or so of x5?;d

[MichaelV]

SSD equipped and "two 12x cpu's" which i don't really know what it means, maybe cores. Anyway, idea is that you shouldn't worry about sloppy performance : ) unless of course, we get DDoS'ed, which i hope it won't happen.

[Fogazi]

no way it doesn't happen

[Malicious]

every new server gets ddos attacks, even the shitty ones. so its going to happen, it only depends, how fast admins can solve it. Afterx5 start, was realy smooth for 2 days, but ater ddos started, and for like 4 days was hell, not a game.

[baho]

Imo hardware looks powerful enough to easily hold 5k players but in case of a DDoS, not much can be done just wait for attackers to stop.

If votes is true, so it is:

7969 votes

, add boxes, and we have lags from start? 

[SwashBuckler]

Doubt it people with dynamic IPs are voting everyday or anytime they want to check the poll since you have to vote to see what the scores are.

I'd say about 2k+ are people who voted multiple times

[Xosikun]

every day? You mean like once every 2 minutes? ; P
Just restart your modem.

there are going to be a lot of players, dont worry.

for the ddos, there are datacenter solutions and the possebility to block all scopes and release them after, checking for the traffic. Thats some work but will do ^_______^

[arch1]

i just hope u gonna fix ddos faster than on x5

[Aurelius]

Fixing DDoS is not RPG's staff job. The datacenter where the server is located has to block it. Forgot the name of the datacenter where rpg servers are located
