High scaling bandwidth usage
New, WishlistPublic

Description

Sorry if this isn't a bug, but I've noticed in airfields with 5-6 people we're all seeing upwards of 2mbps down from dayz. This caps out a party member's bandwidth and causes massive desyncs for him. Upload bandwith did not seem to be effected.

I can't even download more than 1.8mbps which means roaming in groups of 5 and having someone in the area impossible.
Its also crazy that I could have cheat of types. Second monitor. Task Manager with Network traffic up. No one near me 80~kbps someone near by BAM 300+kbps.
This also has to be a issue with servers. Feeding data in these amounts I would assume would be taxing. AS well as what in the world is all this data?
Devs if there is anything any of us can do to help pin this down more let us know!

I can't believe it.

100000 posts to "eeeh, I'm getting desync devs help bla bla" and finally someone else who was able to pin the problem down ;).

I have the exact same problem: players in your vicinity create a huge amount of download bandwidth. It can easily reach over 800kbit/s or more
