Along similar concerns about performance, I had been wondering about network performance pertaining to upload bandwidth (server to client). Currently I am using 100Mb up and down so it's hard for me to tell any difference but I had began to wonder how many players can a certain upload bandwidth support efficiently.
My current bandwidth is quite stable for 200 players and I believe it may be an overkill actually. Does anyone have experience with varying upload bandwidth and how many players it may effectively support? I am looking to cut cost a bit and want to know which communication bandwidth range will still efficiently support 200-400 players.
200 players = ???
300 players = ???
etc.
Again, I have roughly 210 active players during peak time on 100Mb and network performance monitor shows no signs of stress. Any advice is will be greatly appreciated.
