RS vs RoC CoN RS Desert 0210 OGL

This plays the recording with the actual Tribes engine, compiled to WebAssembly — the same playDemo() path the game itself uses. The engine is about 7 MB; it then streams just the game data this recording touches from the archive, as it touches it. Every piece is cached and shared across the site, so a second demo on the same map costs almost nothing. Nothing is fetched until you press play.

RS vs ROC


This demo is dedicatted to all the HPB's out there, as well as the LPBs who complain about 
300 ping being "unplayable."  I pinged consistantly in the 700's the entire match, but
managed to cap serveral times.  Sure the weapons wouldn't always fire, or I'd get lagged the 
second before I'd hit their flag and find myself face to face with an enemy heavy, but hey,
crap happens.  

Oh as an added bonus you'll get to see [ROC]Banshee make this IMPOSSIBLE MA on me.  Thought 
I was home free too...leave it to ROC to ruin all my HPB fun =/
