What type of online should i implement?

[unity_1236alman]

In last days i searched a lot of material about the online and i have some questions:
1)Should i wait the new unity online system? (I want launch my game in april/march)
2)If not, i should use Unet or photon?
Consider that my game isn’t fast-paced and i would like to use a dedicated game server.

The FAQ (https://support.unity3d.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001252086-UNet-Deprecation-FAQ) recommends the following:

What should I use if I am making a multiplayer game today or have already shipped a multiplayer game?

• Already launched: If your game has shipped and uses our Relay service, it will continue to run as expected until at least Spring 2022. By that time, we will either extend the Relay service or provide a clear transition plan to new technologies. It’s our goal not to harm games that depend on this tech.

• To be shipped in the next 0-6 months: If you’ve already completed most of the work on your multiplayer game using the LLAPI or HLAPI, it is okay to ship it using the 2018.4 (LTS) or prior versions of Unity. If you’re using the LLAPI, it is even okay to ship using the 2019.4 (LTS), but we do not recommend this if you have sufficient time to transition (see below). P2P architectures of all forms struggle with scalability, inconsistent connection quality, and hackable clients, so we recommend most games move to a dedicated server model if possible.

• To be shipped in 6+ months: You should consider moving to dedicated servers to determine what it will take to create a server-authoritative version of your game. We believe the new tech stack enables longer term success.

Hard to say for sure whether they’re still on track for that timeline.
