Hey guys im think that i may start playing again when my cap renews and seeing that the mod is a rather large download i may have to cut back on how much i used to play.
Basically how much bandwidth does PR use within an hour and awnsers would be greatly appreciated and i look forward to seeing you all on the servers on the 28th =D
Thanks in advance

In full server it seems to need at least ~14KB/~2KB.
If you go below that you get over 200 ping and start to get connection problems.
So it will download around 50M and upload around 7M per hour.
I used Netlimiter when playing with 3g for a while, nice little program to monitor how much bandwidth certain program uses

BF2 = 50mb-60mb/hour

Problem is there's no internet providers that doesn't have an internet cap in NZ
