Online Multiplayer and map pack downloads

Post Reply New Topic

how many GB does it use to play online multiplayer on PS3?
and downloading map packs for some call of duty games I have how many GB does that use up?
all I've got is a small 15 GB wifi box and I don't want to use up all my downloads.

Switch to PC gaming.

Know happiness.

Even a pc can get full, much like a ps3 or xbox, it just takes longer. I was surprised to see I've almost used up all my gigabytes on my gaming pc.... and I've already used up all my data on ps3...

It depends on which games / map packs you're referring to.
Generally, playing multiplayer games doesn't use a lot of bandwidth.

Downloading a bunch of COD map packs might burn through a few Gb or so, though... but it depends on how many you mean, which maps, etc.

its map packs for COD games
the last one resurrection for black ops
and the ones for black ops 2 and ghosts
also does it use much download to play online multiplayer?

I think the Rezurrection maps can be comparatively big... like, around 1 Gb or so.
I never had BoPS 2 or Ghosts, so I'm not sure how big any of the DLC for those would be.

I really am not sure how much bandwidth multiplayer uses, but it's not likely to be too bad I think.

Pfft pc just add another HDD.

1tb drives are less than the cost of a console game

It seems to me that he's asking about wifi bandwidth rather than hard drive space.

The cheapest 1Tb hard drive I could find on Amazon is £50.
You could get 20 console games for that price, or more... depending on what you buy.

1Tb hard drives are very cheap nowadays though.
