Further bandwidth use optimisation

Apologies if this has been requested elsewhere. I did a quick search and there didn't seem to be topics with similar names.



Basically I'm wondering if Gas Powered Games could further reduce the bandwidth usage in Demigod? According to the patch 1.01 a 35% improvement was made but it's still not enough for me to play 2v2.



Like a number of ADSL customers my upstream sync speed is pretty slow compared to what other broadband subscribers are given. I sync at 128kbps but can expect about 60% throughput (i.e. 72kbps). I don't know if such low throughputs are typical for ADSL users but they are typical for users in my country.



We've also got a thread up at the Stardock forums speculating about the bandwidth usage of Demigod. Could you confirm or refute the numbers?
