Improvement of gaming experience


Dear WarRock team, players,
This is a suggestion that i've suggested on the forums of the previous publisher, and that was taken in to consideration but never happened. There's one big issue in the game, that came when Peer-2-Server was introduced. Before i get any further in to this, let me explain what Peer-2-Server (P2S from now on) is and what it means for WarRock.
WarRock used to have a Peer-2-Peer (P2P from now on) system. This means that the essential gaming data such as location, movement, shooting, chat, etc. was directly transferred between players. This describes the meaning of P2P, "Player-2-Player". A P2S system on the other hand, is different. It is basically a "Player-2-Server" system, which doesn't transfer data between players directly anymore, but involves a server between them. The main reason this system was introduced, is due to DDoS attacks players did on each other. With P2P, it is possible to find other players their IP adresses, which is needed for such attack. Since P2S, this problem has been solved. However; a new problem was born. Of course, lag has always been in the game, but now it is a different kind. It gives players with a greater delay to the server an unfair advantage in most cases. I think players from Europe could confirm this as for example with players from Turkey.
The suggestion here is to have multiple servers connected with each other, as illustrated below:

______________________________________________________________________________
Players would automatically connect to the nearest server, which are connected with high speed internet. If a player has a slow internet connection, their delay to the central server would be much greater than in comparison to a server that is more near them. I would recommend to rent a few servers for testing. If the tests are good, and the gaming experience has indeed changed in a more positive way, it would be a great idea to advertise WarRock in countries all over the world. This could not only bring back old players, but also bring new players to the game which would drastically increase the playerbase. A higher playerbase means a more popular game, which means all of te above, if resulted positive, will pay off.
Thank you.
