[Death In A Cup]

Could anyone tell how much bandwidth playing this game will take? It would be appreciated very much if so.

I too am interested in any one who can tell me how much bandwidth this game takes on the average per hour. I am going to get 4gLTE iphone 5 around October this year as my primary internet due to being on extended DSL out in the sticks.

Not much; a few mbs download with any 50k or whatever upload and you should be fine. I have a 12mbs connection myself but almost all of it is idle if I'm just running this game. I typically download with over 1mBs(8mbs) in traffic and don't even see a hiccup in my games. If you're at 3 or 4mbs you should be able to run the game at 100% if you aren't using the bandwidth on anything else. But that is assuming your upload isn't in the gutter. You typically also need 50kbs or so of upload to run games properly because you're also sending data to the game server, not just receiving it. If your upload bottlenecks you then your ping will suffer just as much as a download bottleneck.

I could tell, but then I would have to kill you. You know... signed Non Disclosure Agreement and all.

Ok, I am on fixed data plan. It seems I have used more of that data since I have started playing MWO to the tune of about 2.5 gig/month. That does not include DL patches, because I do that at my office since there is not a data limit.

Does anyone know what the data/drop transfer might be?

Thank you
