Sassilization Deathrun (connect now) became the first Source server to host 128 simultaneous players last night. The historic event was recorded in all its laggy glory:
The new player limit is intended for Gmod Tower, in which players are scattered over separate floors and, assuming the server has enough system resources, the lag seen above isn't an issue.
(Source's hard upper limit is 255 players...any coders out there ready for a challenge?)
The video is far too long. Skip to 7:10 for the best part I've found in it yet. :)
Wow, I'm amazed they got it to work on the same day of the release of the update! :)
My computer will explode if i hosted that server xD
They bumped it down to 64 D:
in my computer i play with 128 player in online and BOOM!! lol
the dudes couldn't even move themselves :/
