Re: [Info] Halo 3 Developers Release QoS Settings For Gamerfuel
Yeah, I know Bungie are using allsorts bandwidth compression techniques, and I do see players skipping around even when all players have full pings.
I didn't know you we're directly connected, but running halo 3 without gamerfuel and nothing running in the background vs gamerfuel on and nothing running; gamerfuel wins every time. I've done back to back tests you you get a much better performance from host on games like halo 2/3.
I'd like to know how Bungie are hiding the lag.

1 edit | I'll send it 
I am pretty sure I don't need ANY QOS at all when I have this and I am the only one using it. Nothing is online so there is no need for QOS just like me and my friends direct connect and still lag alot. Anything direct connected has no need for QOS because it has all the bandwidth available at all times
Last Result:

| Just wondering what service provider you have? That upload is rediculous.
I had boost from optimum online and that gave me 27000mbps roughly, and 4000mbps roughly which was amazing, but I worked out I really didn't need that type of connection for gaming. The standard connection really works out fine for gaming; but extra speed is always nice. |

| I have Verizon Fios and I'll talk to you online but you dont need more than 1 mb up and down to play halo 3 but halo 2 you need close to 2 mb up and down.
BTW this connection only cost me $65 a month  |

| Good info.
I play Halo 2 alot on XBL when I direct connect the difference is noticable but soetims the gameplay is unsteady with a rouer gameplay a bit worse more steady for some odd reason so i using a dlink 4100 router.
The dlinl dir-655 is XBL compatabe because it is Vista certified which is the same thing and you don;'t have to bother with firmware upgrades. |

| OK when I enable Gamerfuel and Upload is listed how do I change it. I tried to clear it out and it would not so its set at default.
I have measured the upload was going to type in 85% of the value in the Uplink space.
thanx procto |

| Why does everyone believe bungie when halo 2 was fine for everyone and then when halo 3 came out there setups for halo 2 are no longer good enough. Yeah right bungie why don't you tell everyone you changed the net code and thats the reason.
I'll show you screenshots of how much bandwidth halo 2 and 3 uses later.
Also QOS doesn't do anything for you at all unless people are using your network then QOS is useful but if nobody is using it YOU DON"T NEED IT. As for everony that doesn't use a router and is directly connected to there modems why do they lag then ? There is no need for QOS when direct connected because everything is dedicated to the xbox so BUNGIE IS FULL OF SHIT. |
