Yoink Posted September 28, 2007 Report Posted September 28, 2007 I'm sure this question gets asked all of the time, but I can't find an answer anywhere. How much bandwidth does a zone use? Worst case scenario? Thanks .

Confess Posted September 28, 2007 Report Posted September 28, 2007 (edited) It depends on several aspects. - How many people are playing?- How big are the zone files?- How often will zone files be downloaded/at what size/per person?- How much activity is going on? (firing, etc)- Several other factors To put things into perspective though: Trenchwars uses about 1200-2000GB/m. When SSCB was around, Altec reported usage of around 200GB/m for all zones (RS, Halo, Paintball, and some others). When HS was on SSCI-A, it was using around ~150GB/m (i believe). All in all, it varies. Why do you have this in mind? ------------- Oops just saw the 30-60 population thing. I'd say around 100-300GB of bandwidth off the top of my head.

rootbear75 Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 he said around 30-60 people... what does DS run on? or MG? they have that kind of average population http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t54/badgersocks/FHTG/FHTG%20-%20redone%20shizniz/tgmember11.pngrootbear75> here is me nude <spoiler tag: Pervert... how many of you actually clicked this?>Samapico> I actually clicked the spoiler before reading what it was Corey> I clicked it cause i read what sama said first. darkreb0rn> I clicked it because I wanted to see you naked... rootbear75> O.o __________________________________2:IdleRPG> Mr Snuffleluphagus walked face-first into a tree.

🜲 PoLiX Posted October 4, 2007 Report Posted October 4, 2007 Going off his Yearly avg of 800kbps ( Kb/s) you'd transfer ~6gb a day. So rougly 180gb a month. This (although ignoring low times, pop bursts, etc) should give you a pretty good guess. SSForum.net - September 01, 2002 - Rowen (SSDownloads.Com), PoLiX (SSCentral.Com), and Cyberise (Subspace.Net)
★ Maverick Posted October 4, 2007 Report Posted October 4, 2007 180 GB per month.. way more then I would have imagined but.. how many zones is SSCC hosting?
