Yes.
It does the job. And it's easy to install and run.

Most games do implement a "minimum latency" where no matter how low your
latency is, you'll always have at least 30ms or so (from what I've seen) to
keep things fair for MOST broadband internet connections.
So no, you cannot bring your laptop into the data center, [proverbially]

Correct - but with a server based model you can look at the lag to the
worst clients and add lag to the other clients so everyone has a level
playing field.

Delay, or “lag” in gamer parlance is everything. Have too much lag

It seems to me that a purely client/server model will inherently have

For certain styles of games or for games with crappy netcode, it can be.
For most others performance is perfectly acceptable in a peer to peer in
the vast majority of cases.

For sure it isn't everywhere, but most of this is about critical mass. In North
America, is IPv6 available to the critical mass of end-users?

Being employed by one of these elusive game hosting companies, I can tell you
that the dedicated server model is very much alive. And rather than the version
of 20 years ago where there was one central server in the world, they are now
deployed in a globally distributed manner.

Much cheaper to just let all the game clients talk peer to peer than it is
to maintain regional dedicated server infrastructure.

I'm outside of Tampa (18th largest MSA in the US). The two providers
here, Spectrum (former Brighthouse area) and Frontier (bought out
Verizon's FIOS offering) are both IPv4 only (including on their SOHO/SMB

Every time I've called in, I've asked if they are offering IPv6 yet.

Matt, that ship sailed long before you or I thought about building networks.
You can't change it at this point. Just embrace it.

What evidence is there that non-ISP-provided routers are prevalent? I don't
know anyone that doesn't have an IT power-user intervening that has their own
router. If something works without a separate router, most people aren't going
to go out of their way to get one.

Because it's not universally supported, poorly thought through, and no
backwards compatibility.
Is there a better option? NO, not at this time. But it certainly could
have been better thought through how it was implemented.

Many... but not all... and just because the operator is doesn't mean the
person you want to play with is. And just because the operator is

It is coming back to that, but you still have so much going on that you need
the open ports. I don’t gt why people fight IPV6 so much.

There are many things going on with gaming that makes natted IPv4 an issue when
it comes to consoles and gaming in general. When you break it down it makes
sense.
-You have voice chat
-You are receiving data from servers about other people in the game
-You are sending data to servers about you
Aren't most of the major operators using IPv6?
