Recommend multiplayer i0S games

Unity Engine
1

Hey guys -

Can anyone recommend some of the best implemented multiplayer unity games out there (or even non unity games). We are creating a racing game and a well implemented multiplayer feature would put our game into a different league.

Real racing 3 has time shifting which I think is currently the only option available to us while Internet ping times need to improve on the mobile networks.
Local realtime multiplayer of up to 4 players would be awesome - is it even possible ? if so does anyone know of any games that do this well?

Our races are pretty short (between 10-40 seconds I.e quarter mile to mile) so solid smooth multiplayer is a much.

I am going to keep researching and if I learn anything ill post on this thread :slight_smile:

Cheers

Well for this you need physics system of car to be written by you yourself. something like real physics implementation of unity’s car tutorial. The creator of that physics system “Jonas” made a multiplayer racing game before and because you have the algorithm so you can know 3 seconds ago or 2 seconds later where your car will be at. It’s based on floats and not fully deterministic but is much better than using physX for it.
The book AI game engine programming has a good chapter on racing game and another on sports titles which talks about these problems.
There are many games out there like need for speed online world which implement it well but what is it’s usage for you.
