As a software developer I've always been curious on how so many informations in a MMO is transferred on the net.
So many players doing so many things, so many pixel to move in the right position.
Never got an answer so I still don't know how the best MMO's out there do this.
Now...after reading tons of topics of people having "Performance Issues", and having those myself, I wonder...maybe is not a problem of hardware, maybe is a matter of bad data optimization and is something related to how information goes from the servers to our pc, maybe u need much more upload bandwith with this game, not only a good download.
I'm not really an expert, usually I play around 80ms latency but I know my connection has a bad upload.
Are u guys 100% sure is an hardware optimization problem or is it possible to be another kind of problem?
For example in pvp u have much much more informations going around then when u do quests solo.
I noticed also better fps when I am without my companion and for sure when I'm not in party.
