Yva Xorna Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Has anybody looked much into cloud gaming? It certainly sounds like an interesting concept. I would love to just have a Linux laptop I could take anywhere and play everything (as long as there is internet) and have somebody else worry about upgrading. I can't do that with what I currently have. Specifically I was looking at Snoost but there are other companies too. I'm just not sure if this would work with Star Citizen? They say "any" game though.

Founder Astrus Posted June 11, 2018 Founder Share Posted June 11, 2018 Ive seen it before but figured the input lag would be far more than what I desire. Id need to see some numbers on it before Id ever thing of investing with Input Lag being the main factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Extona Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 I have heard about it a few, the lag should be good enough at some services to play games but I dont think a delay will ever go away due to the distance your signal has to go from A > B unless you have a server near you. The best scenario 5-10ms, worst scenario 30-50ms or higher. But spec wise, I mean they got pretty good stuff but, what would be the price for enough cores, ram and a videocard, and after that you have to hope THEY have the game installed at their services. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed staying at hotels the internet is always wretched. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
