flixbeat Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Shoutout to MWG :) So I was planning to make a mmo game using php as for the server scripting language, and I was wondering if it's recommended to use socket programming for the implementation. I just wanted to make a player's name display or like viewing all the user online on the same page, not necessarily that they can interact like chat or something. But incase, I was thinking of a trade system peer to peer. I would like to make a game that's similar to http://www.die2nite.com or even a much more simpler style like http://www.urbandead.com I also wanted to know if they use sockets for those type of game. Thank you so much, cheers :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
