And now you're snorring around at PC Magazine already, you can as well stay there, for they have put up an article that gives us an inside look at the technical aspects of Dark Age of Camelot. Not that they go very in-depth, but it's something alright.
The heart of Camelot, it turns out, isn't in the English countryside but in Fairfax, Virginia. There Mythic keeps 120 dual-processor Pentium servers running Linux. Each group of six servers runs what Mythic calls a gamespace—a virtual world inhabited by thousands of players. The idea is to create different gamespaces for different types of players. |
