Forum ‹ Feedback ‹ Suggestion: İncrease max concurrent online capasity

[uterian]

Max concurrent online capasity is too low, even an ordinary multiplayer games does have more than 5000 concurrent online players. So I suggest increase concurrent player capasities of all Plus, Pro and Enterprise packets.

What? You have a very positive problem if you have 5000 concurrent online. You should have no problem upgrading to a bigger plan.

I actually do not agree because CCU is a measure that makes sense for realtime action games where players are in permanentely active sessions.

But Player.IOs lack of UDP and its surely social mmo type of game 'focus' with the features it offers (IAP, BigDB, ...) make this CCU limit very troublesome and often remove Player.IO as an option altogether.

Player.IO already limits the CCU indirectly through the traffic costs where overusage yields higher fees yet 'scaling fees', where the CCU is a 'do or die' limiter that any iOS social mmo game can exceed without making a single dollar at worst even if near zero traffic is generated.

As such I would like to request that either the CCU limiter is removed or applied as a limiter that is XOR related to the traffic to properly seperate 'realtime game usage' and 'social mmo game usage' instead of punishing primarily those that cause only mild load on your machines and network in an absolutely destructive way. (with the current way the plan is specified, nobody creating such games can consider player.io as an option right now, all that don't create their own service are forced to use Moai or Roar Engine)
