    Has somebody maybe experienced the double missile bug in COOP? I mean the bug where the missile hit the target, explode and suddenly a second missile pops up and do unwanted shit?

    Could be what is known in the community under "rouge missile". I have never been able to reproduce this under normal pr session settings but it might have just been too fast to see properly. 

    Happens on Khamisiya STD/ALT a lot since there are many air assets. You fire a AIM9 on a locked hostile target. In flight the missile will steer off course an hit the closest (firendly) helicopter or jet. Basically all teamkills with AIM9s or Stingers are because of this. 

    I want to check the demofiles sometime.

    Don't get me wrong it is in a sense realistic because heat is what helis or jets produce, yet the way it looks when the missile suddenly pumps up to MACH30 pulling a hard turn, feels glitchy.

    Further we should start to kick people who deliberately camp / block the bots from moving out the main or flags without contributing. And yes this is will be a question when are you camping/ breaking the game. 

    Blocking and camping main is already kickable afaik. But breaking? Hard to judge imo. Is killing the fortress Igla considered breaking? Or Burning Sands being on the bridge in the chally and waiting for the armoured convoy?

  3. A independent german hardware and software site was able to test the service in their Paris headquarters in April. The first impression was positive.

    Link to the article in german (Use Google Translate): https://www.computerbase.de/2018-04/blade-shadow-cloud-gaming-pc/

    Relevant section about latency, translated with Google Translate:

    The biggest compliment that could be made in the company's office after the first scan was the editor's question as to whether this had just been done locally or streamed from the server. In Doom, even on a 144 Hz monitor and on-site comparison, it was impossible to tell whether it was rendered locally or in the cloud.

    As long as everything goes as planned, as with Nvidia's GeForce Now, there's nothing wrong with getting started in competitive games with the cloud gaming PC and defending the hard-won rank. The conditions were also optimal with a 1 Gbit / s line and only 100 km as the crow flies to the data center via the French network.

    Interesting to note that the company just aquired a new datacenter in Amsterdam which (at least for German users AFAIK) reduces latency, acc. to the Shadow "to a significant degree". Their other datacenter is in Paris. 

    -----------------------------------------

    The site also did a test of the BETA version of nVidia Geforce Now (still german): https://www.computerbase.de/2018-01/geforce-now-nvidias-spielestreaming-test/

    Translated tl;dr:
    Nvidia GeForce Now game streaming on the PC is now available as a beta for Windows. In the test surprise the low latency and the huge game selection. Only the picture quality stutters again and again. Curious: With the EVGA Precision X tool, the Tesla P40 can be tuned in the cloud.

     

    I would consider myself a traditional PC gamer and I am certainly not in their main demographic. For me, building a PC is part of the Gaming experience because its so much fun. Nothing better than receiving package after package with new fancy hardware. Won't ever pay nobody to take that away. But hey, if it makes some peoples life easier. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    most help would be thinking of new layouts for maps (flag locations/cap order and assets) even just drawing them out on paint/paper would help because I sadly know the limits of each map and this limits my ideas. 

    Current map layouts don't differ all to much from the deployment versions. The flags have to be already under AI control and incompatible flags (re-)moved. A flag is normally some kind of sight. strategic positions or zone.
