Connection speed?

from Demigod Forums

Hi there.

After having downloaded Beta 2 since one day now, I today played my first online match that was not over hamachi. It was a 2v2. But I was experiencing relatively strong lags. So I have to ask: Will this get improved later on? What fast does my connection need to be to flawlessly run demigod with 5+ opponents?

I am asking this because I played Supreme Commander and Forged Alliance for a long time, and, due to my relatively slow connection, I was never able to play anything up from 2v2. I am having DSL Light 386kbit.

So, what's the matter with that? Will it be better than in supcom, considering that demigod pretty much is a teamgame?

Well this is Beta, so things will be getting better as they get closer to release.  Unfortunately with your connection, I wouldn't expect any miracles though. 

 

If you don't mind my asking, how were you playing LAN games?  My brother and I would love to get some in but are finding the system they have right now rather unwilling to accomidate well...connecting.

Well we were playing over hamachi in Beta 1, and it worked pretty good.
Unfortunately, this option is now completely disabled.
