I can’t find any official statement on the multiplayer framework used, but I did find this article that states Garena was first created as an online multiplayer service. That would make me assume they are using their own service and not one of the “standards” we see most often used here (Mirror, Photon, etc).

Let’s not forget that there are 3 layers to such a multiplayer game:

  • the transport (UDP/TCP packet handling layer, low level)
  • the networking library (framework implementing multiplayer networking features, high level)
  • the backend services (hosting, account management, lobby, matchmaking, load balancing, databases, etc)

All of these together needn’t be an all-in-one framework.

I am not sure if it is the video or what, but the only thing I found objectionable was the extremely jerky action. Video? Spectator mode? or game play? Everything else was pretty dope, I gotta admit.

I don’t think the brand of netcode really makes a difference for what I was looking at specifically (graphics, artwork, models, animation). If the netcode was responsible for the jerky camera movement, then it wouldn’t be a good netcode to use. I wouldn’t be able to play it for more than a minute, it would just give me a head ache.
