Interesting read. I’d love to hear about the finer details on how they handle the asynchronous stuff. Also, anyone who thinks their servers are bad should try playing literally any other game online. The servers are very solid compared to the clusterfuck that is EU West for League of Legends.

Anyone having lag problems today?
I have perfect connection. But the game is unplayable on both EU servers. WTF?

Using database transactions *is* the industry standard to guarantee data consistency. Here, WG says that they have high loads, so that’s their excuse for not employing database transactions, and instead relying on faster but less robust methods. As the result, they save on the infrastructure, but the players have to pay with their gaming experience.

I doubt they move you between nodes throughout actual battle, that’d make no sense.

Yeah, I ‘ve noticed at some point the dude completly lost it and started talking about bestiality stuff… which brings us back to the first comments about monkeys, hamsters and ants…
