I'm on dialup atm and it says in the FAQ that you can use dialup and its been tested. I wanna know from actually users if it'll good enough to enjoy the game. The rest of my rig is more than enough I think:

3400+ (Newcastle)
Abit NF8
1gb ram
9800pro

Sell half your Ram and get broadband for a year or 2...
Your computer is great and "DESERVE" broadband.

Seriously, please dont, I would not want a monk connected at 56k healing me 1 second to late, having the entire party restarting an almost 1 hour quest, as some are.

I've been playing on dialup just fine. Hardly ever any lag.
I only get lag when I'm sharing my dialup connection between two or three computers.

I have dial up too and I've played all the beta and the game and never seem to lag except when i'm in the pre-searing.

dont wanna sound mean.

Don't worry m8 I don't think thats mean. Its the truth no need to sugar coat it. I felt the same way about 56kers till I was reduced to 56k lol I knew there will be latency penalties and I'd prob be warping abit. I just wanted to know how bad it really was. Thanks for all the comments btw.

Shouldn't really lag - you might get a hitch when you hit the towns though.

Try finding empty districts then, should help.
