Hi all!
We just had our first huge player test, and hit over 350 concurrent players on one server. This is a huge moment for us and the game, so we're very excited. It's sad we couldn't invite ya'll in on it but we have some plans around making this happen in the near-ish future, so be excited :D
Meanwhile, we wanted to share some cool bits from the test, as well as some of what else we've been working on recently.
First up, this is what it looks like to clip inside of a planet during the test. We're all human, after all :P
And here's some footage of what it looks like to have around 50 players all at the same Xenotaph... the framerate we reckon is down to the client rendering rather than netcode, as it still felt pretty darn smooth!
And as for other work, we'd love to hear what you thik of the concept art we've got for each fo the 3 main races n Lazrus.
First up is Ki, humanity's best pilot:
Then we have a Drone piloit, along with its Slomp symbiote:
And last but not east an Oruobean, one of the race of interdminesional scientists/gardners who influence time and space in Lazarus for their own msyterious ends:
...and that's it for now - by the way if you had trouble with the public server at all today, that should be fixed too :D
