Bike lag

[Shadow]

Why does SOS bikes and PD bikes kill the server? I feel like mass spawning of other bikes doesn't lag out the server like theirs do. Is it the bikes or something server sided? Not necessarily complaining im just curious.

It’s mostly the bike itself, not really “server sided” favoritism or anything. The SOS/PD bikes have a certain part on them with really high-res textures, and that eats up a lot of the server/client resources. So once there’s more than 2 of those bikes out at the same time, it starts lagging hard. Other bikes don’t do it as bad because their textures/models are lighter and more optimized.

Surely something can be done to fix the issue

What i dont get is the fact that the sos/pd KNOW that these bikes lag the living hell out of the server but still continue to do it anyways, like come on guys not EVERYONE has a good pc! Especially with the economy nowadays and pc parts prices rising up and such, I was unable to put down a dupe for my rp experience for about 5 to 10 minutes because of it! Just completely rude and selfish guys, come on have some decency amongst the fellow players who are trying to enjoy the game as much as you guys are

like 20 sos members showed up to our pizzeria the other day on their hogs

the hog hurricane had no connection to the 12 FPS i was getting at the time

If this were true, surely the server itself would impose some limit on how many bikes could be pulled at once?

I’ve always called bullshit on this.

During a large meeting of sorts, a year plus ago, our alliance pulled out maybe a dozen or so cars for all of us to roll around conspicuously to all meet at a single location. With the server full, we pulled those cars and instantly started lagging everything. Bikers were blamed, we laughed, and we moved on. This is just a vehicle thing. Entities doing entity things.

Its anti-hog propaganda
