I have direcway Satellite Internet connection,and my problem is my latency is very high.Does anyone have any good muliti Player game suggestions?I have been playing NeverWinter Nights for quite some time now,but my when I was on Dial-up there for years lol...I use to big an very big Mech Warrior fan.I played Mech Warrior for years as well..Im an old retired pilot.Anyways It would be most greatful for someone to hook me up with some game ideas...I would like to do more muliti playing...I have been doing lots of single playing.Well Thanks for your time....

i think, u won't be able to play internet games, with that Sat-Connection.
As far, as i remember, your latency must be around 2 Seconds or something :/
Or am i wrong ?

Saludos, FunkyMood

My latency is between normal at 600 to 1200....Thats about right!!! But I have been on dial-up for so long its unreal so this was my only option right,was satellite......NeverWinter Nights has worked great for quite some time now with the connection.Well If anything comes to mind I would greatly help thanks for your time,and sorry for not replying quick enough.

If you are looking to play a MMO, why not "City of Heroes"? It is a MMO where you can build your hero from a variety of archtypes and over 2.9 million different costume choices. I've spent over 500 hours in it since I bought it back in April and I'm still playing nearly every day.

We've got the main supergroup of players from our sister site, PimpRig, where most of our toons are located. We've also just formed another supergroup, the Uberw00t Corp, for all of our level 50 heroes (highest lvl you can attain).

The game is continually being updated so there is always new content to explore. Also, there is a companion gamed called "City of Villains" that is coming out in the fall (Oct) where you can be a villain. It will also have cross-over zones with "City of Heroes" where you can fight a hero, or if you are playing a hero, fight a villain, that is another player, not a game villain.

Pretty nice game...send me via private message your e-mail and I'll send you a link for a free 14 day trial to "City of Heroes".

Well I do thank you for the offer though,but does it not require such an high amount transfer rate without having the connection timing.That Is what I think holds me back and all of us here at the house......Sure I will keep that In mind about City Of Heroes though...Thank You

Oh I forgot one thing I forgot to bring up...Umm I have been playing Guild Wars,and see it was lagging me completely out of the game...I just wish they would figure out an way to Increase signal bandwidth......But any how though Thanks again........

Man guild wars is designed to work well on all internet connections. I beat the game on dialup.

Guild Wars is like the perfect online game if you only have dialup, it worked awesome(for a low bandwidth connection). Hard to believe that it wont work on high speed satellite dsl.

Now I had DSL, and I am loving it. Just gotta get BF2.

If it's anything like directv, try pointing the satellite around for maybe a stronger signal?

Haha... Sat Internet is probably the worst way to go... Is there not any other sort of broadband option in your area? If not, get yourself a sledge hammer and SEND THAT DISH TO HELL!
