Perfect game!!! As an I.T. Specialist, after a full 8 hour shift in the office, I come back home and I keep installing servers and switches, connecting them with various cables and then setup some IP addresses.... the same stuff I do for working now I can do for entertain me!!! Also the bad feelings about bad cable management in the racks is well preserved,... ... at least, in the game, I can choose whatever cable color I prefer.... so my datacenter is all in pink cables!!! LOVABLE!!!!
As a former real data center engineer, this game has a lot of potential, but is really bare bones and raw at the moment. But my main gripe is IOPS system that has no in-game explanation on how it exactly translates into network bandwidth in GBPs. Also, I have AI art on the customer logos. Some flair could be added with human some human effort here, but understandable if dev wants to focus on the other parts of the game at the moment. As for how close it to the real network data center - a very far shot. Also, the game itself gets old very fast, because there's no challenge after you do a couple of customers - money flood in like crazy, and there are virtually no limitations to what you can do besides rack capacity. The lineup of hardware at the moment is very modest, you get 2U servers and 7U servers, which is, for my experience, is kind of weird. Where are 1U models? Where are 4U? Doesn't sound that hard to implement Also, a crucial missing piece of what a real data center would have for this to be an actual simulation - there are no servers in the game, and the customer system was built without it in mind. There's no concept of CPU/RAM/DISK, only IOPS, which makes way more sense if what is called a "server" in the game is actually a storage system, since all you care about is how fast data moves. Not to discourage the dev, though, with some solid work this can be improved upon tremendously
This game is fantastic, very intuitive if you deal with networking IRL and there's huge potential for changes and improvements. Please join the discord and post ideas in the channel if you have any of those... However it is greatly disapointing to see use of AI artwork. Please for the love of all that's holy replace this.
