Best I can say is try it out once it goes open beta...

Never hurts to try...

Can also visit their forums and try a search on "dialup" and see what if anything there is to read on the topic smile.gif

Yeah, good guess. I don't have dial-up and also no way of testing dial-up.

I did check my modem/router for a short while, while playing some Mythos, and during regular gameplay (doing a quest) I see traffic of about 2 to 4-5 Kbyte/s downlink, and about half of that in uplink speed. However, when changing maps, I see peaks of about 50-100Kbytes/s (on a 17Mbps ADSL line), so you might not like those switches in dial-up. Hard to guess how much real traffic is transferred there.

Also, do keep in mind Mythos downloads quite a bit of content when you first start/run it, so that might take a long, LONG time if/when you run it for the first time. This was however a lot less after installing the latest (post-Zone 3) client, so things might have improved there.

All in all, I can't give you an exact answer, but once Open Beta opens, you'll be able to find out for yourself, and I do hope you report your finding so that others can learn...?

Regards, Patrick.

i think it would be very difficult to play with dialup because mythos getting updates during playing for graphic environment.
