I'm not running R1CH's program, and going by netstat output, I don't see any UDP activity at all, only TCP. When I use the application provided by R1CH, it shows that it is indeed blocking stuff. | ||

However I did some brief testing (Custom game and FFA) earlier tonight and it appears UDP is no longer in use. Somewhat correct, netstat doesn't show UDP "connections" the typical way you'd expect, but it will show a UDP server. gary@snuggles:~$ netstat -aun | grep "1337" 05/26/10 9:26 PM udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1337 0.0.0.0: * udp6 0 0 :::1337 ::: * = my torrent client. so if SC2 was using UDP, it would show the server running. | ||

I just played some 2v2s with a friend who normally lags a lot, and he said the games where he lagged heavily were the games where your program wasn't active. Possible placebo effect at work? | ||

Blizzard is trying to implement a different technology here. UDP will give everyone the counterstrike latency people desire. They were using TCP before, which was slow. What would you rather have? A few weeks of horrible lag and latency during the beta but awesome latency when the game is released or a playable beta but 150ms latency? | ||

This leads me to believe Blizzard didn't do a sufficient amount of testing (10 games would have sufficed in this case) and their bnet team consists of a bunch of dimwits edit:: sorry for the double post my guess as to what happened when implementing UDP in blizzard: NSFW+ Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b374/rotineggg/ffuuuu.jpg) | ||

Hop into a game without using this hack, hit Start -> Run, type cmd<enter>, then type: netstat -n | find "1119". copy/paste the output here. here is my netstat response: TCP 192.168.***.***  **** 213.248.127.131:1119 ESTABLISHEDIf UDP is disabled on server then game works the same with or without R1ch's solution - switch to TCP. However, even TCP is performing better at the moment it cannot be final for mass playing. From now on with more traffic TCP can go only worse. | ||
