It will take a long time to provide a better network experience, and our engineers will continue to test and optimize the network performance. Due to the complex reallife network environment and Party Animals' relatively high demands for the network quality, we are still trying to decide which type of network server structure is most suitable for the actual situation. Our goal is to use a peer-to-peer network distribution system to reduce the demand for potato servers, so that we can accommodate more online players. The ping value in the custom lobby list makes it easier for players to find a lobby that suits their network conditions. This arrangement will provide better network responsiveness when players are geographically closer to the host, but the opposite is true if they are far away as well.
The lobby will be dismissed when the lobby owner exits the lobby.
It's like a failed Thor fighter jet designer, unemployed and came back to design plush toys, it takes some time, hope you can understand :)Ĭustom lobbies are now modified to be more similar to traditional video games: the lobby owner acts as a host for computing and network re-distributions. This particular designer has been doing UI for mobile OS before, that mobile company has since went bankrupt. Q:Personal opinion, could the UI maybe be designed a little cuter?Ī:I have informed our designer about this. We will try to improve the split-screen experience in the future. This is a status quo in game development: we have to make compromises. Level 3f Where-Is-Patch Teacher Book Level 3g Betty-Bees-Lunch. Level 3f Where-Is-My-Pet Teacher Book Level 3f Where-Is-Patch. Level 3e Fruit Teacher Book Level 3f Where-Is-My-Pet. Also, without split screen, all local players will not be able to rotate the camera independently. Level 3e Animal-Babies Teacher Book Level 3e Fruit. Q:I don't think split screen is a good choice because it provides a narrower view.Ī:It's a compromise made to accommodate larger maps.
We have added the a report button and we will have a support team to deal with cheaters.Ī:Yes. The reason for changing the default to 4 teams is that we want to have shorter games, with a median of around 10 minutes and a uppper limit of 30 minutes or less.Ī:Our developers are considering adding an anti-cheat programs, but all anti-cheat will negatively influence game performance. 8 teams has a median time of more than 20 minutes. The show is over at 4:45 and I'll be home around 7 tonight. Even at 3 minutes per round, it can take up to 50 minutes of game time. the split-level house was known as party central for the students of Highland Park High. Q:Why is the default 4 teams with 2 players per team instead of the default 8 teams with 1 player per team as before?Ī:Because a game with 1 player per team can theoretically take up to 17 rounds.
