Well, I have here togheter with a friend of mine a
100mbit full duplex ethernet network. This, for all that do not know, the actual fastest way to connect PC's. You can transfer in best case 12mbyte per second. this makes still 12kbyte each MILLISECOND. Altough there are 1000mb network cards, the traffic they produce suxx all the speed from the cpu over the bus, therefore this is not a good idea.
So, I asked me, why the heck is this game, even with only two peeps in there, over a 100mb full duplex network, slow as ####. You do not notice at first, but when you enter vehicles, wich should not represent to much capactiy for this kind of network, you see the vehicle of the other peep laging, over Lan. Is this normal, or am I the only one who noticed?
