WOW! That was a lot of reading. You must have been typing for 3+ hours. O.O
It sounds like a great idea. I think Minecraft might use a non-secure version of this.
[ The Servers ]:
Roblox currently uses a Cluster server system. Meaning that a bunch of computers are all working as one computer.
Your idea essentially Clusters the Client Games with the Master Server of the Running Game.
[ The Connection ]
This may allow the player to stay in game if connection is lost. What will happen if the connection is reestablished?
Is the player going to still be kicked off if connection is lost? Or is there going to be an option asking to keep playing Solo? Meaning the game won't reconnect. This can be good for when your really far in a non-saving tycoon game.
[ The Security ]:
But whats to stop a person from making a program that can decompile the place/map file?
[ And Idea of mine Shot Down by other players ]
I suggested we be able to wear 10 hats. But all anyone said was it will be too laggy in game. And I know that's not the case.
At least with your Hybrid Server, people won't be able to make that excuse when trolling good ideas. :-P
PS:
I Support! I've seen similar, and it works. :-)
