David Salz 15 years in the industry CTO, Co-Founder of Sandbox Interactive 35 people based in Berlin we only do Albion Online! In this talk: What is Albion Online? Middleware + Design Decisions Server Architecture How we use Unity (and how not) Albion Online Sandbox MMORPG Cross-Platform (Windows/OSX/Linux/Android/iOS) One World (no „Shards“ or „Servers“, not even for different platforms) Player-Driven Economy (everything is player-crafted) No Character Classes („you are what you wear“) Strong focus on PvP + Guilds Hardcore („Full Loot“ in PVP Areas) Pay-to-play model 4 years in the making Currently in Closed Beta w/ 80.000+ „founding“ players „Release“ in Q4/2016 Albion Online The initial pitch (2012) Play-crafted equipment, buildings One World (like EVE Online) Guild vs. Guild Territotorial conquest Top-Down perspective + Combat (like League of Legends) Simple graphics, „can even be 2D“ PVP focus, no PVE, no Mobs, no Dungeons Release in 2013 Middleware Selection Engine Selection Unity made sense – inexpensive, accessible Cross-Platform was a „target of opportunity“ Database Selection One world need a very scalable database, NoSQL Cassandra sounded suitable still use SQL for query-heavy problems Networking Middleware Photon! can use C# on server (like in Unity!) works with all Unity platforms Apache Cassandra NoSQL Database Originally developed by Facebook Open Source (Apache-License) Java Concept: everything

  • Deterministic Simulation What Modern Online Games Can Learn from the Game Boy
    Deterministic Simulation What modern online games can learn from the Game Boy David Salz CTO, Sandbox Interactive Who am I? CTO, Co-Founder of Sandbox Interactive 15 years in the industry Albion Online: Sandbox MMORPG Cross-Platform (Windows/OSX/Linux/Android/iOS) Player-Driven Economy (everything is player-crafted) Strong focus on PvP + Guilds Currently in Beta w/ 120.000+ „founding“ players Using Unity Engine Agenda Deterministic Simulation – A short reminder How RTS-style games use it How MMO-style games can still use it! The pitfalls: How to do it and what to avoid A few tricks with deterministic randomness A few examples from Albion Online Gameboy Multiplayer Link cable had very limited throughput … as in: a few bytes per frame and player Syncing complex game state is impossible Instead: used like a controller cable! Deterministic simulation on all devices Frame updates are synced (effectively „lock-stepping“) Still used on DSi and 3DS Deterministic Simulation? This should be an old hat, but… Deterministic: same input same output Input[i] × State[i-1] = State[i] where i is the simulation step number S[0] S[1] S[2] S[3] I[1] I[2] I[3] Given State[0] and same sequence of inputs Input[1..n] … all clients will produce same Sequence State[1..n] Deterministic Simulation! This is cool because: Only need to send State[0] and Inputs through network! Only Inputs if State[0] is known Can save replays by saving only Inputs! You can debug replays of bugs! Difficulties: one mistake and the clients „desync“ must be independent of frame/thread timings requires lock-stepping for online games Late join requires you to send State[n] Deterministic Simulation vs.
