I'm getting 2.9MB/s about half of what I pay for. Not sure if local yokel is throttling , they usually don't or if LA is getting hammered but says 10 hours. Guess I'll FF16 until tonight.

ROFL, my ISP has crashed. Two friends (all on the same) got their internet not responding at all for 2mins when I had "no connections" either... (including my own servers)

Well all major releases blast steams servers…so I’m guessing he’s using…history of all major releases?

Millions of people DLing a 122gb game at the same minute upon release is a much bigger strain than joe blows across the country with staggered time zones and staggered work release times updating their 12mb update to whatever game they play may or may not have had an update that day.

an hour after release for me:

I'm betting overall bandwidth will be higher in primetime USA.

Would be cool to see global bandwidth usage from Steam, or some other metric to quantify how big of a clusterfuck BG3's release is to Steam servers

Technical question, with a 4090, win 11, should I play with DX11 or Vulcan? I've always just used Vulcan for the EA since it's the default, but now with a new computer is DX11 different/better?

Click to expand...

Vulcan is usually better so long as you're not crashing. Less over head and/or more direct access to the hardware than DX usually nets it more FPS.


Edit: Man did I call that shit.

Yeah would be cool to see it. Somehow these people reported out on steams bandwidth so it must exist somewhere, unless they reached out to steam directly for the article.

Steam servers refuse to buckle as whole world downloads Halo Infinite

The surprise launch of Halo Infinite's free-to-play multiplayer briefly brought Steam downloads to a halt for some.

That article showed a spike for halo infinite which almost hit 25,000 gbps. We're at almost 150,000 gbps now.

I made the most important decision in the game, I want y'all to know I went with Penis E.
Hardest difficulty is no joke, already died twice to the first real encounter.

I wanted to roll a traditional bard. Then I saw this and am stuck at character creation contemplating...
