Big Brother + slow site = RIP Play Solo

The site has one of its seizures again where everything is slow.
Studio still has Big Brother enabled, resulting in studio freezing because of a million logging requests, clogging up the sparce HTTP that’s available, leading to script timeouts, no character/player (while it’s Play Solo), a very orange output, … a studio apocalypse.

TL;DR: (allow us to) disable Big Brother and/or make studio (especially Play Solo) work without internet.

No idea what Big Brother is, but I’ve been having problems today.

Is this something related?

All the ecsv2 stuff

Oh great. My game has some glitches I went on to fix and studio is refusing to let me test and ship out fixes. I thought maybe it was my fault because its not happening on another place :worried:

It also seems they patched starting studio with big brother off, so yeah… annoying

I know what that Big Brother is, as I’ve read the book. I assumed this was some kind of external service ROBLOX was using or something.

In general when someone mentions “big brother” in such a context, it just means the act of logging actions of users, observing what they do, getting statistics on them, etc.

In my case I’m unable to join a game.
Once I do, it just destroys my internet connection. After closing ROBLOX’s client, the internet re-established.

Why?

Also, shouldn’t this be in Bug Reports?

I first was gonna post it there, but this doesn’t seem much like a (good) bug repport.
It’s more a feature request to disable BB and/or improve studio’s HTTP stuff

Oh ok. :slight_smile:

I’ll make a separate post with my issue then.
