Servers

[EWenge]

The Devs stated on their livestream that they will start using servers, so if im right you wont be able to change your savefile after that happends.

if its founded.. BIG BOO from me

IMO stupid idea, because dedicated servers cost and they will not exist forever. Closure of dedicated servers = death of the game. The P2P system is not be idealic, but it provides a much longer game life.

A similar situation is in the game EVOLVE. Very often there is no dedicated server and you have to wait. This is idiotic. I knows too well DBD devs so the situation here can be a lot worse.

Maybe we can resync our save file before this? Will it work?

Sorry but I seeing you use resync

What da hell is resync boi ?

I think he's talking about syncing our file back with steam cloud. I'm guessing once they start using their own dedicated servers to save everyone's save file, anyone who does not have steam cloud enabled will lose their files? I think that's what he's talking about.

Yes! So i want to know!

Not sure sorry. I don't know how all that's going to work when they start using dedicated servers. But From what I understand if you turn stream cloud back on after using hacks you'll get banned. But like I said I'm not sure how it all works, just from what I've heard. I honestly haven't even played dbd in months so don't really care for the game anymore. I might turn my stream cloud back on it tomorrow and see what happens.

yea i have turned ON one time, to resync this cheated save data and after i going sync OFF again

From what I know for now, They want to create these "dedicated servers" just so that there is no loss of progress. A lot of people (especially veterans) have lost their original progression many times. Fault is on the wrong configurated of the Steam Cloud by Devs.

I think we will still be able to modify progress, even Cheat Engine or another tool. Hacked points/items will be available in our game until we restart it.

Just do not believe that they will completely rebuild this system, this game was made on P2P with local save. It will cost them a lot of money and time to change it. And the DBD population is constantly falling. Does that make sense? I doubt it.

[monstermunch14]

yea true story

[maros495495]

I think they make dedicated servers because i too much using lagswitch and they cant ban me for that

[Dilandau3000]

is the company even making enough money to run the costs of servers?
