Didn't they bother testing their UDP network before launching it? -_- It was perfectly fine before that change, why would they change it to UDP anyways? I don't really know much about networking but isn't it like really old? This is probably explained a lot better in several other threads made on the same topic, but UDP doesn't require the 'confirmation' from the other computer that you've received data that TCP does. This means potentially less latency, but it leads to other issues since each computer assumes you are receiving 100% of the data perfectly. | ||

This means potentially less latency, but it leads to other issues since each computer assumes you are receiving 100% of the data perfectly. UDP and TCP were both described in RFCs in the early 1980s, so I'd say they're both pretty old  . But yeah, the big difference between UDP and TCP is that UDP is unreliable, so the sender of an UDP packet doesn't know whether the packet reached its destination or not.The reliable transfer implementation of TCP might have too much overhead for certain time critical task, and in those cases, it might be better to implement your own reliable (or unreliable, as the case may be) transfer method on top of UDP. This is what Blizzard has done, but unfortunately a beta version of the UDP transfer implementation has a much higher chance of being a nuisance than a beta version of, say, the main menu. | ||
