1.Uber doesn't seems to be at a good financial state before PA, due to the failure of SMNC. 2.Neutrino mentioned many times that the PA kickstarter...
Then it is flexible and not limited to one core and 4GB ram per game, this would make the previous comparision pointless.
The server only run the sim part of the game, which is why running the client still requires a lot of computing power. Four cores won't make the...
One of the reasons that PA uses the client-server model is a large chunk of computing can be done on the server side, which means playing the game on...
