bandwith ?

[Mr. Chaos]

i have a server that i colo and i have 1.5 up and down, and i want ot run a small tf2 server like 14 or 16 players can i do this, and what would be the rates i need to run?

[Drocona]

1,5mbit will only hold like 10-12 players TF2 I'm afraid (looking at the bandwidth ingame, I still have to do some good tests though)

[Mr. Chaos]

ok thanks

[blik]

1.5mbit up and down colo? o.O

You sure that's not 95th percentile billing you're seeing?

[Mr. Chaos]

no it is 1.5 up and 1.5 down

now on a css server how many players?

[asviola]

I thought that a 1.5 mb bandwidth could support 32 players in tf2.

My bandwidth is about 2600 kbs, how many players can this support?

[asviola]

Oh, I see, you're assuming it's at 66 tick. How do you change the tick of a server anyway?

[Drocona]

TF 2 uses bandwidth quite abit more than for example CSS, that's why you can't host that many.

-tickrate <#33-100> in the commandline will set the tickrate.
