[POLL] How many bricks in a given area cause the game to be unplayable for you?

[--LegoPepper--]

I'm trying to make a server that's very performance friendly. I know a lot of players don't necessarily have good PCs, so I'm trying to compensate.

So... when does the game become unplayable for you?

edit: changed title to be a bit more clear

around 100k but only if they're close together

[--LegoPepper--]

To specify I'm talking about bricks that are close together.
Each area in the server will be separated so you won't have to ghost everything.

[Im_AFK]

on any server except mine

without shaders: 255k
with shaders(low): 10k
with shaders(max): 0

on my own server
without shaders: ∞
with shaders(low): 30k
with shaders(max): 1

this information is actually really needed thanks for opening this poll

off: never
minimum: never
low: ~40k
medium: ~20k

max: ~5k

[The Resonte!]

in my server, no shaders or shadows, i can probably handle 256K+ but not much more

[Trogtor]

off: never
minimum: over 100k
low: like 70k
medium: maybe 60k?
I don't go high or above, I usually play on medium

[Jubel]

until the game stops working with like several hundred thousand

You can't really say it like this, every build is different. Many big bricks in a large area run worse than many small bricks in a small area. 10000 rounds run worse than 10000 2x2 bricks. Items, players and static shapes are thousands of times slower than bricks.

So what are you building?

[Muse 2]

Minimum: 80k
Low: 20k
Medium: 5k

From what I've noticed the average builds tend to use regular bricks more often than rounds or other high-poly bricks, so i think the poll is still applicable to the average player.
But yeah if your builds consist of more high-poly bricks than regular bricks then this poll isn't that accurate to you.

[Taciturn]

A lot.
