Re: Re: Re: Re: Top Gaming Servers.....
 

You were having an IRC session, right?:D
4-6 players would be about right for cable, and it would still be a little laggy.
My clan has a dedicated server for 16 people tops, never 30. Only Eartquake can have 36 at the time, and I bet you a month's salary they don't do it on a cable connection.

4-6?!?!!?!? now i have had at least 10 people PLAYING no speccing with no lag, just courious fragger just how large is one of your months salaries, and i dunno wat irc means but if it means showing ppl stuff then that is what i do

bob:
When I said OC, I was referring to an OC48 and such.
Look up OC48 on google ;)
I am on a T1 right now and got 3538 kbps upload speed.
I wish I could run a server from here ;) but I won't risk getting fired :)

I would keep the player limit to 8 or 10 MAX on your cable server, and cap the rate at maybe 3000 so everyone can play without much lag.
There are others here a lot more experienced with setting up servers that can help you further.
I will be renting a server from that place I posted soon, I will let you guys know the IP when it is all done :)
It will be a 24 man server most likely, maybe higher.


BTW: Bob, your download speed seems slow for cable?? Have you applied any tweaks ?
I average 500kbs download from fast sites on my home cable connection, sometimes as fast as 1MB :)
