If you have Wildblue, HughesNet, or some other satellite internet service, post here. I figured we should all know who each other are so we can play at least some type of real time games like wifi warfare, dinosmash, and the upcoming killtest. We should at least be able to play with each other, because we have the same latency.
Im not quite sure. Its possible. Its not necessarily the speed of the connection, (as my connection is 1.5 mb/s downstream) more the distance it has to travel. but it could be similar.
perhaps if I host a game, and you connect then the speeds will level out. should be upgrading the net soon though, it's getting old now
I had satellite internet for some time and it was absolutely terrible. barely worked half of the time. it was a crappy little company called Keyon here in Las Vegas. now I use Cox's slowest connection speed and it's leaps and bounds better.
Connection Speed Satellite is definitely tough for realtime multiplayer games. Crossing the country on hard-wire starts to get upwards of 100milliseconds. 150ms is where games will start to chop, and beyond that, it's probably tough to enjoy. Turn-based games on the other hand would be ideal for sat internet...
