As a genre, fighting games, in general, emphasize fast inputs in conjunction with the ability to read and react to your opponents on the fly.
Given the variance in network quality from user to user, online play has traditionally been an issue with many preferring to practice and compete against others in-person.
However, with the world on lockdown, the fighting game scene has been forced to find alternative solutions, one of which being Parsec, a remote access tool that allows users to connect and play with others online.
Just how has Parsec been put to use during these restrictive times and how has it helped keep various fighting game communities alive?

Parsec is a cool tool for the development of online FGC, however the fact that it requires an entire video stream means it may be an unviable option in countries with less developed internet infrastructure. I still very much prefer just having a good netcode instead.
@johncurry7225
@johncurry7225 3 жыл бұрын
I agree... where I live the best non-throttled, low firewalled ISP I can get is 10mbps download, and parsec requires 3 or 4 times that speed to stream. My ISP gives me a stable ping but low speeds. If I chose an ISP with higher speeds (say 100Mbps), my ping becomes unstable. So I have to choose the best-worst connection. Games with good netcode I can play fine. I can play MOBAs, shooters, etc., but things like online SFV are just garbage. So Parsec is definitely a good solution in areas where good connections are accesible, but still leave out a lot of players. I don't expect the any netcode to rival something like Parsec (unless its GGPO but good luck selling gppo to japanese developers). But a good netcode should at least be close enough to be enjoyable.

I love Parsec but this video is seriously overselling it. With Parsec you don't only need to wait for your inputs to arrive, but also for the video stream to get back to you. Because of this, everyone who isn't the host gets their lag doubled. In a very best case scenario, you might have an experience that's the same as regular delay based netcode. Parsec is great for playing local multiplayer games online, but by the nature of how it works it can never be better than run of the mill delay based netcode, which is already horrendously outdated.

I think you missed the explanation. The way Parsec is being used was by hosting it on a virtual machine. So he gave the example of having a virtual machine using parsec in the mid west area which means east and west players would connect to that machine and play. So basically the host is a virtual machine so that no one gets the latency advantage.

When he tried to connect to mine according to him he got a lot of lag. When I connected to him I got less lag but it was pretty blurry.

@@PSNMyfoot Strive is being made with Rollback in mind, and +R is such an old game that the rollback devs can kind-of brute force the rollback into working since PC's these days are more powerful, and even then, they were working on the implementation for like 6+ months. Doing this with modern games is way harder and more time consuming since you have to serialize everything. It took a whole team of developers a little over a year to implement rollback into MKX for example. I can see why Bandai would see that as not a worthwhile investment. It would be way better for the players, but they would probably just make more money making adding another DLC character that everyone will buy regardless and make way more money. It's sad but that's what the situation is.

Its even more sad that we have had a legitimate solution since like 2009 (GGPO, which is free to use, only cost is implementation). But unfortunately most Fighting games are made in Japan, Japan notorious for being ignorant to advances made in the west in terms of gaming at the downfall of its players. legit most western developed games(even fucking indie games like skullgirls and TFH) have working basically perfect netplay due to GGPO roll back, and fan communities as well as another major company(NRS) proved that implementation of GGPO in older games is possible(albeit a pain in the ass) and most definitely worthwhile, NRS did it for mortal combat X, and Meltyblood EFZ, Melee, BBCF all had community made mods or clients to run GGPO for the games. arcsys even implementing a community built version of Rollback into an older GG game (which is fucking great, good work arc sys) which made the sales of it spike, prooving to other JP devs that its worthwhile to do so. Im glad they are finally coming around, with Arcsys adding rollback to strive, and potentially adding it to older games like GBFV, BBCF (offically) and DBFZ, hopefully this gets other devs like Capcom, SNK and french bread to follow suit. I understand that technically its a difficult process its not as easy as copy and pasting the GGPO code into your game, especially games built on pre-existing engines, but its proven to be possible and work so fucking well that its a shame it doesn't happen.

I will not play in a tournament unless it's offline. It would legitimately have to be 1f or less lag , or rollback netcode. Very happy the option is there, specially for bad netcode games.

Aside from allowing better online play, I also believe Parsec, specifically its public lobbies, is a good way to get some people to try more obscure games. I haven't done it in a while, but I used to often host some games I liked that didn't have the biggest audience, allowing people to essentially try it out for free. This has worked on me, as I’ve gotten to try some games I either wasn't sure about or didn't know about at all. I hope other people decide to do the same, I love seeing obscure/poverty fighters get some play.

As good as parsec is, rollback netcode is the future and much better than parsec. Ask any true rollback game players like KI, Skullgirls, Them's Fighting Herds, +R or melee with slippi if they'd rather play on parsec than rollback netcode. And, melee did not build their netcode from the ground up. They're using rollback netcode which was invented by the Cannons who are still prominent FGC figureheads to this day. Parsec is a bandaid solution to what should have been the norm nearly 8 years ago.

Nintendo forced tournaments to shut down for using slippi net code, which led to the #freemelee. When splatoon players used names in support of the melee community in an official Nintendo tournament, the livestream was canceled. All teams forfeited and did an independent tournament with a community pooled prize pot about 10x the amount of the official tournament. Nintendo would rather sabotage their competitive communities and be publicly humiliated then allow legal, gameplay enhancing mods.

I love these fgc videos because it's a community I don't know allot about but my brother is. About parsec though I think it works great and I've seen things similar to it before, the system makes sense and works as it's intended and while it isn't as perfect as ofline events you will never have a connection online that is. My brother has a friend in the fgc that just doesn't like parsec because it isn't this perfect connection but I think that's a little too greedy. While the ofline events are what people are used to I wouldn't be surprised if parsec and services like it have tournaments even out of lockdown.
