Crytek employees say they’re not being paid, againquote:In 2014, Crytek tottered at the edge of insolvency, requiring a dramatic reorganization, the sale of assets and studios, and the delay of paychecks to workers. Cevat Yerli, the Crytek CEO, acknowledged that the company missed making its payroll; Crytek had done so to keep itself out of bankruptcy, he said. Last time this happened CIG picked up a lot of staff.

I don't understand how a CryEngine SDK FPS will have a dramatic impact on their hosting costs beyond what they are already paying for patch distribution and their current online garbage. Please explain.

Please explain. dedicated cpus ain't so cheap, which is why the pu framerate tanks when you get more than 6 people online in a server instance because crobbs don't wanna pay for the good stuffs

I mean they can release it with bare minimums (which I think they'll do) but that means a wonderful fps with like 12 frames a second or horrible 800ms pings

# ? Dec 11, 2016 17:04 |

So, they're already skimping on CPU time. I can easily accept that. Does babby's first FPS take that much more CPU time than the universe they've already put out? I guess lack of CPU time would be much more noticeable in a fast paced FPS than the awful space ship combat they currently have. I'm just surprised the cost difference would be that big. I'm going to continue to completely ignore the fact that hosting a fast paced FPS on cloud server infrastructure is just embarrassing.

Daztek posted:Titanfall 2 would like a word with you They did cloud based fast action FPS well? Good on them. Is it a game oriented cloud service, or are they using a general service like AWS. It's always been my experience that cloud stuff will have more lag than dedicated infrastructure. It doesn't absolutely need to be that way, but it commonly does seem to be that cloud emphasizes storage and bandwidth over ping times. I know cloud stuff has been getting better and better all the time, but I'd still be surprised if a general purpose cloud service approaches the performance of dedicated servers.
