Okay so I am very new at this. I just started learning about online multiplayer today, and from what I can tell, I should be able to do online multiplayer just as simply as doing LAN multiplayer. I have a few questions though.
-
What specs do I need in a dedicated server to be able to host a relatively light Unreal Engine game? I’d like to minimize costs here as much as possible, but I also want to be able to have upwards of 10,000 people active online at any given time.
-
I want to be able to squeeze as many games into one server as I can, but I don’t know what exactly I need.
-
How many separate “games” (unique sessions) can I run on one dedicated server? For reference, the sessions will host up to 4 people.
Sorry for being so green in this area, but I don’t know where to start. I don’t want to purchase anything without first knowing what I need.
