    Everything you covered in this video is so common among gamers these days, so it's really helpfull to understand how all this works. You also did a great job explaining it so even the average could understand. And to top it all off, you did it in under 10 minutes.

    It's nuts how far tech has progressed since the 90's

      Yeah. I remember connecting games back in the 56k modem days and how laggy and brittle that was. Pretty crazy we can have such fast paced games that work so well.

      well to be honest it progressed about 1-2%.. its same tech just more optimized. only new is fiber glass BUT it was already there 30-40 years ago. but not available for everyone.

    Interestingly some people have reverse engineered the way the servers work and are able to privately host older versions of the game.

    Among all the UE gamedevs you probably have the best production quality. It's sad that you don't get the recognition you deserve 😢

    Its not accurate to say that the client sends control inputs raw to the server, what happens is the client applies your control movements to your local copy of the game state, the updated game state (changes in player position, creation/destruction of content such as builds etc) is then synced to the server. This is why you get anomalies like someone seeming to shoot or move through a wall you just placed because the server doesn't yet know about that wall.

    If ping is determined by how far u live from the server then why do I get 150ping on Middle East even though Israel is 1500km from Riyadh which is where the Fortnite servers are but on eu I get 60 ping while the servers in eu which are in Frankfurt even though I it’s 3000km away from Israel

    So it's possible to create a dedicated fortnite server ?

    • @LivelyGeekGames
      @LivelyGeekGames  2 года назад +1

      Only Epic games can do this, they don't provide the ability to run your own server. The closest you can get is running custom games using codes or making your own creative games.

      @@OfficialSpring To explain it simply, they use a proxy (with some changes to ini files) to tell the game to not connect to Epic's servers. Even if you do manage to create your own, Epic have done C&D request so these mp servers can't use cosmetics in games. That being said, these fortnitemps servers will become more popular.

    So this is what devs mean when they say "networking".............
    Prime example: 10 players all operating different parts & function of a vehicle.
