help with a question..

when I'm over at my brothers and play AH on his internet... I'm worried about using too much data.. he is on limited data plan... I think 150gigs a month...  about how much data am I using an hour?  I know it depends, but does anyone have a guess at the ranges of data used while playin AH?

While I play this very moment, the data rates through my network card are ranging between 0.7 and 1.8 KB/s, which woul translate to something like 2.5 to 6.5 MB/hour. As you still can play AH with a 56.6 modem, you will be very fine with a 150GB limit.

Would filming/saving film not increase the data amount as well as saving screenshots doing the same?


Great question you've asked SkyRock...

Can't see why, both of those actions take place on the PC, no need for additional communication out.

Since the game is run client-side, I doubt filming and/or screenshots does anything to your network data usage. All you do over the network is transmit/recieve positional data and damage values, although the more people in the area the more data must be passed around.
