Chapter 721 Frame Rate and Delay



Old Eggplant felt a little strange. What were these people chattering about? They had already got the tools, so they should go and farm. Why were they still hesitating here?

He moved closer to listen to the fun.

It is human nature to join in the fun and listen to gossip. Even if it has nothing to do with oneself, one may still go over and say something like "I have known he is such a person" to satisfy one's curiosity.

Lao Qiezi discovered that the core members of the players were two people.

One of them is someone Lao Qiezi knows, and he is also an old player named [Lao C]. He likes to play some strange games and do reviews.

The other old eggplant didn't know the other person, but from a few words from others, he knew that this person was called [Civet Cat].

"I tell you, facing such a large number of monsters, we have to build firepower positions and use firepower to wash the ground, so it is better to build scattered artillery positions!"

[Civet Cat] said.

"The scattered artillery positions are too easy to be defeated one by one. I think we should build a solid fortress. Isn't it a fortress in the movies?"

[Old C] retorted.

The two men seemed to be arguing over what kind of fortifications to build.

[Old C]'s reason is that the fortress left over from ancient times was used to fight against the demon tide in the movie. Inferring from this plot, what can resist the demon tide in this era must be a huge fortress.

However, [Civet Cat] believed that they should take advantage of their firepower and build scattered and sophisticated fortresses to avoid being wiped out in one fell swoop.

Both ideas seem to make sense.

The demon tide will last for at least three days. During this period, mages and rangers need sufficient supplies and solid fortresses to survive the impact of the demon tide. At least that's what it shows in the movie. If the fortress is not strong or big enough, it may be destroyed by the appearance of lord-level monsters.

The other side is more inclined towards modern tactical thinking, putting eggs in different baskets, setting up artillery positions in each fortress, and being able to resist the magic tide in a very long line of defense, which is similar to tactical interspersion.

"Old Eggplant, come here and give us your opinion."

Old Eggplant was eating the melon and watching the show, when he suddenly found that the melon had fallen on him. He was called by [Old C] and asked to speak.

"ah?"

Old Eggplant had been leading the team from the beginning, and later he led the players to open up the monster flower bushes and farm. His reputation was quite high. When these words came out, all the players looked at Old Eggplant.

"How about you two neutralize each other?"

Old Eggplant decided to smooth things over.

“How do you neutralize this?”

[Old C] doesn’t understand and he must have an answer.

"You see, a single fortress can only defend a limited area, and scattered artillery positions are easy to be defeated. So why not take them all?"

Old Eggplant said casually.

"You see in the movies, the mages are all in huge fortresses, surrounded by some sentry towers and small fortresses. In this way, the torches they light can radiate a large area and support each other. Isn't that great?"

His words awakened the dreamer.

The two players who were arguing suddenly fell silent.

Both of them thought about it and felt that what Old Eggplant said seemed to make sense.

A main fortress and small fortresses scattered around it, isn't this the configuration of an aircraft carrier formation?

Thinking this way, both players understood each other.

They quickly shook hands and made peace and began to plan together.

Old Eggplant ignored them and was thinking about the observation tower.

If there is no speculation, this observation tower should be the prototype of the Gray Tower.

Old Eggplant was very excited to be able to build this legendary building of the Kingdom of Night with his own hands.

Thinking of this, he felt insignificant.

It is like being in the silhouette of vast history. Looking forward, it is the thousands of years of demonic tides wantonly destroying the entire world, and looking backward, it is the magnificent counterattack that is about to begin.

And I will leave a small footprint in it.

This feeling filled Old Eggplant's chest and made his heart surge.

However, just when he was about to show his skills and strive to lay the first brick of the gray tower, Old Eggplant discovered that the Morning Star was running out of power.

He had no choice but to quit the game, take off his helmet and put it on the charger to charge.

Only then did Lao Qiezi truly understand why the battery life of this device is so poor, and it must be fully charged on a special charger before it can be used, and it cannot be played while charging.

If he could really stay offline forever, then Old Eggplant would probably be found dead in the ** within two or three days, exhausted.

Lu Ban made this arrangement to protect everyone's lives and safety. He really made Lao Qiezi cry to death.

Moreover, after playing for some time, Lao Qiezi also discovered one thing, that is, the frame rate and delay of this game are very stable.

Not to mention the frame rate, with a Sharingan like Old Eggplant's, if there is a big fluctuation in the frame rate, he can notice it at the first moment.

It is said that some players are super sensitive to frame rates and can tell the frame rate just by watching a piece of actual footage. Although I am not as sensitive as them, I can still feel the difference.

Latency is an inevitable problem for online games.

When Lao Qiezi plays online games normally, the delay ranges from 6ms to 50ms, depending on the server. Under normal circumstances, he feels that 35ms of delay is already very high, but some players can even feel a delay difference of 5ms.

There are also game manufacturers who will take shortcuts. For example, one time when Lao Qiezi was playing games, he always felt that there was a problem with game delay. He looked at his machine and it showed 22ms, but when he checked online, he found that it was actually 35ms, which was totally off the mark.

As for [Cage], the frame rate is stable and the delay is almost imperceptible. I even wonder if I live upstairs from the computer room of Silent Games.

After taking a shower and eating some snacks, Lao Qiezi opened the web page and took a look at the forum.

"Have you already started recruiting the second batch of players?"

Lao Qiezi saw the announcement on the forum header at a glance.

I clicked on the announcement and read it. It was similar to the first time, except that this time it stated that players with relevant professional skills such as construction, engineering, and communications would be given priority.

There are still a lot of replies under the announcement.

[I'm just playing a game, but I need to know how to build a house. Is the threshold for players so high now? ]

[Hahaha, the civil engineer finally stood up, hahahaha]

[This is so real. I heard the first batch of players are already preparing to build a fortress.]

[What does Lu Ban want these players to test? Is it to test the limits of the game's physics engine? ]

[I heard that the technical boss of the company next door is ready to apply for testing. How can such a boss who has mastered the core technology compete with ordinary players like us? ]

[Lu Ban is not trying to poach people, right? If this player goes out to play, can he come back to work? ]

[I didn’t win last time, I must win this time, Lu Ban, hit me, hit me hard! ]
