For multiplayer games, the number of players participating in the game often determines the richness of the game content. However, due to the limitations of UE engine, the number of players that can be hosted on the same server is relatively limited.
To allow more players to experience the immersive feeling of galloping on ancient horse battlefields, we will hold a large skirmish battle stress test for Myth of Empires next week. In this mode, we will try to break through the technical limitations of the engine and allow more than 200 players to engage in skirmish battles on the same server.
How to participate in the test:
We plan to invite a total of about 400-450 players to be in the test. From now until May 4th, players need to fill out a survey questionnaire, and we will invite players who match the testing requirements through Discord on May 5th.
Test schedule:
The test will be conducted on May 7-8, 2023, from 13:00-13:40 UTC each day. Each battle lasts for 20 minutes, with two battles per test, and a total of four tests over two days. Details of the test will be discussed in the Discord channel.
Test rewards and precautions:
To ensure the smooth running of the test, Steam players need to bind their international accounts in advance. (How to bind Steam account and international account: https://www.mythofempires.com/evt/2022/0225/116.html)
Players who participate in more than two full tests can receive a reward of 1000 gold tokens.
If this test is successful, it will break the limitations of the UE engine's player limit in multiplayer sandbox games, bringing more possibilities for future game content and modes.
Let us meet on the battlefield!
