What!? Why the games don’t just run locally
they’re streaming world data. I shudder to think about the size of the entire dataset.
Are the streamed data stored in a local cache? Surely the bandwidth costs are going up to the sky with the server sending data to every single player.
From what I’ve heard, yes. They’re storing data in cache for frequently charted areas
