How is the performance?

Re: Northern Strike Server
There was a good amount of lag with 64 players, so they cut it down to 58. After that it didn't fill up again, but performance was good for me.
There is alot of armour/vehicles on these maps. Also the games take a long time. Seems like the tickets moved real slow.The Dirty

Re: Northern Strike Server
The server's performance seemed to remain the same with the change. I only experienced a problem when the number of players exceeded 50. However, it did seem less severe than the internal scrimmage, though that may be due to the fact that the Northern Strike maps are more spread out than Cerbere Landing.

Re: Northern Strike Server
Does anyone experience much lower framerates on NS than they do with regular 2142? Mine were pretty low compared to normal.

Re: Northern Strike Server
everything was hunky dory until the server filled up. I really think the games would be better on 32 player maps with 48 ppl like the conquest server. Its a shame, cuz 64 ppl really is a lot of fun but the lag is too much. Maybe the other server can handle it? Either way, looking forward to trying it out tonight with the lower player count.

Re: Northern Strike Server
well, the problem with moving down to 32 players is that the goliath becomes pretty overpowering... not to mention 32 player servers seem to have a harder time filling up (my guess is that a lot of pubs order by player count)

Re: Northern Strike Server
I also find that all the NS maps drop my framerates.

Re: Northern Strike Server
I seemed to get a bit of lag when I was on the edge of the map on Port Bavaria for some reason. The other map Bridge seemed Ok, but have not played the third.

Re: Northern Strike Server
I have an overclocked E6700 and a 8800GTX and the snow physics effects (ie when you have explosions in the snow) bring my frame rate to its knees. I still love the maps, and last nights games were awsome. I particularly liked the 1 to 0 win I was involved in. Nothing beats a game like that.

Re: Northern Strike Server
no, not moving down to 32 players...32 player maps with 48 people, like the other server. Less flags = less flag hopping. While still keepin the amount of people up. Or more than 48. As much as the server can handle i suppose. It really is a shame we get that lag with 64 ppl though. Originally Posted by Zoraster
