Old multiplayer

[daft punk 777]

Today was added old mp version with not laggy hitboxes.
but why all players play on new version?!
i think old mp has 1.32 too, and if add dont laggy hitboxes this will be better i think ...?
(question for players)

i don't know why both are kept, the old netcode was completely superior to the new one which i think should be replaced completely.

It's because Eric has set up a poll and majority of the players wanted to bring back the old netcode.
You can now access the old multiplayer after you finished campaign.

so, why's that restriction a thing and if everyone wanted the old netcode back, why not just replace the new netcode completely?

[mrblake213]

I believe some of the players wants the old one back while some wants to retain the new one.
It's really a half-half situation.
Even most (or all) the staff wanted to keep the new one.

The downside of this is that the lobby (or the players) would be divided by two.
The upside is that both parties would get what they want.

eric even said on twitter that this is a bad idea, so why'd he still do it? i don't understand.

also, you said most moderators voted to use the old system, surely their opinion matters more than the average player due to their experience, right?

I think the intention was for a community poll. Letting staff have the final say wouldn't be fair to the players who make up the majority of those who play this game.

Staff may have more experience than some players, but that experience tends to be moderation related. There were plenty of competitive players who voted against the new system. If experience was preferred, their vote would've mattered much more as they have experience with the netcode.

I personally believe the new netcode is better, but there seems to be enough players who say otherwise.

[Eric Gurt]

New players like new netcode. Half of players that been in top 100 like old netcode.
I think it is fine to have it just in case then, especially since I never removed it from game completely.
