Hi there everybody!
We have a great GT5 community in Hungary and we have been constantly playing full servers up until this week. We are experiencing some searius problems regarding online multiplayer.
In the last 2 months everything went well. To be honest almost everything. We only experiened some minor problems like someone in the 16 racer field did not see all of the 15 players when racing. We tried to deal with this with lowering the maximum number of players.
We had races lasting 1-1,5 hours with no problem, any disconnection lag or anything.
But in the last 2 weeks it has been disasterous. Suddenly people with good connection are disconnecting from the server. We had a 100 laps Tsukuba lat night starting with 12 racers and finishing with only 4!!!
If I'm not mistaken there are 2 kinds of network systems in GT5:
1. With fixed ownership (only in open lobby) the host of the room is the server. This is a Star Type Network. Everybody connets to the same user(host). This means the host needs very good connection.
2. Without fixed ownership (open lobby + my lounge) the host of the room is not the server insted all of the players are connected to each other. This is a Mesh Type Network. Everybody has connection with the other players, requiring not as high connection as in the previous case.
We always play in My Lounge, so we use the Mesh Type Network. I don't believe that players with good connection suddenly have bad connections. We have been playing GT5 online for 2 months now, but suddenly everybody is disconnectiong.
Has anybody experienced this lately?
