The video clips discuss the issues and glitches caused by the Replication Layer in Star Citizen, including crashes, server FPS drops, and freezing moments. The clips highlight the need for improvements in missions, armistice zones, elevators, and saving gameplay progress during crashes to provide a smoother and more enjoyable gameplay experience.
In the video clips discussed, the Replication Layer in Star Citizen is causing various issues and glitches during gameplay. Players are experiencing crashes, server FPS drops, and freezing moments. However, there are also moments of recovery where players are able to continue their gameplay after a crash. The feedback thread contains multiple videos showcasing different experiences, such as players in parties, dealing with cargo, and encountering elevator problems.
One video shows a player in a Drake Corsair spaceship, experiencing a server FPS drop before the crash. After waiting for a while, the player is able to reconnect and continue playing with a server FPS in the 15 to 20 range. Another video highlights elevator glitches at bunkers, where players are unable to use the elevators properly. There is also a video showing NPCs persisting during a server crash, with the NPCs still shooting at the player even after the crash.
The video clips also reveal issues with missions and armistice zones. Some players had their missions abandoned by the game after a crash, which could negatively impact their reputation. Additionally, armistice zones were not properly established after a server recovery, allowing players to potentially commit crimes before the zones were reinstated. The clips demonstrate the need for improvements and bug fixes in these areas.
Overall, while the first test of the Replication Layer in Star Citizen shows promise, there are serious issues that need to be addressed. The videos highlight the importance of fixing problems with missions, armistice zones, and elevators, as well as ensuring that inventory and gameplay progress are properly saved during crashes. The Replication Layer is a crucial component that needs further development and refinement to provide a smoother and more enjoyable gameplay experience.
