How would this run on a 56 k modem?

I play MP lots and I have 56k. Actually my connection is only 28k but thats another story. As for lag I barely notice any, and lots of times when I do lag the whole server is lagging but I guess it all comes down to your connection.

It depends on your location, location of the server and the quality of your a connection. It should go just fine, but it's still a lottery... Good luck!
As for buying the game, it's definetely worth it.


Careful what you wish... You might just get it.

It runs surprisingly well on a 56k, from the few times I actually tried. For a new game, it performs better with a regular modem than some games from a year ago.

Reaper: $200,000,000.
Rockets: $100,000
The look on that pilot's face when you launch a full pod of screamers up his tailpipe: priceless
