Bandwidth is not too much of an issue but its still nice to have at least a Cable connection as Dial up shards generally can't be large.
Now, I am hoping to scrounge enough to get a new server.
I hope to get: Dual P4 Xeon Processors 2.4GHz (with HT, not that HT is really important with RunUO yet), with 1GB 400MHz DDR and a 2 Western Digital 36GB 10k rpm HD's with 8MB buffer and 5.2 ms seek time on a SATA 150 RAID Controller (and maybe a liquid cpu cooler and/or lots of fans) running WinXP pro
I imagine the save times will be damn fast and there will not be any lag whatsoever, even with all facets spawned and about 200+ players on. Maybe you will see a tiny bit of lag if all 200 + players are all hanging out at the bank, but I doubt it.... thats just a fast ass system... but not cheep.
You will never get 200+ players on a cable connection, maybe spend less on the server and more on the connection. Your logic is flawed.
