Lag.

What I fear, the game will be in real time, and command delay would really ruin it. Imagine you must struck a final blow, you click, and you have 1 or 2 sec delay, and the guy chopes you to pieces

That's why you should only ever play MMO's if you've got decent cable internet like me. Or at least 1-1.5mbps adsl.

128k , and it's too expensive.

 

[Shados]

Ouchies, I used to be on 56k, I bloody hated every minute of it. I feel for you .

-*meow*

LOL DSL doesn't come that fast here Shados. Thebest you can get is T1 and that's pretty rare. Most of North America is still on dial up or crappy broadband, and around where I am Cable is the best, aside from the rarity of T1. Unless you count the Unievrsity campus and such where they get T3 lucky bastards.

Man, makes ya wish we all lived in Singapore. To every house there's fibre to the node cable standard 20gbps. Lucky bastards.

-*meow*

 

[brad.dude03]

20 GPBS!?!?!?! That must cost a fortune! That would be like hundreds of thousands of dollars a month here....

 

[Shados]

20Gbps standard, mind you it's gigabits not gigabytes, and we Australians (Or at least the ones of us living in Melbourne, best city in the world) would have the same if Telstra had followed it's technicians' - my father among them - advice on future plans for developing optic fibre cables. It would be done by now.

And it doesn't cost much in Singapore because it was all installed by the government, so you choose one of the resellers or the government provider and buy it, and as it's everywhere it's not expensive because of it's so-called "exclusivity", as it is in other parts of the world. And so I envy those Singaporians. Lucky bastards.

-*meow*

God damned. Canada, one of the most industrial countries in the world, and we don't have nothing like that. Well, 20 Gigabits is still hella fast. I have a 1.5 megabit connection, but it is still fibre optic mind you. We aren't that far behind. Honestly, America still thinks AOL Broadband is wtfforthepwnt.

 

[Freakazoid]

I was on 28k for 2, 3 years, then 1 year on 56k, and now 128 >_<

Playing on 28k is same as 56k, but the download is slower.

 

[brad.dude03]

Ouch, that must really, really bite.

 

[operator]

1.7mb , soon 2.7mb

 

[brad.dude03]
