Who runs destiny on a slow connection? (Destiny)

I'll be moving soon and I'm curious how my new connection will be. I'll be running 6-8 down and 1-1.5up. Ping times seem good around 25-35ms. I think the down will be fine but the up seems a little weak.


6Mbps is SLOW? Get off my lawn! I had to dial in with a 14.4kbps back in the day. Tricking Marathon into running over a modem connection instead of LAN made it run at like 10fps, but damn was it fun.

Unreal Tournament was surprisingly playable on a 56k.

Yup, I remember those days of Aim and Yahoo chatrooms. I've been playing on a connection of 125Mg down and 5.5Mg up for the last few months. When I ran 1.5dsl with a 300k up it was hardly playable at all. But that was early year one and I'm curious how much they have improved the networking. My biggest concern is the up not the down though. I can't remember where I saw it, but I thought bungie mentioneded that they wanted 1Mg plus for a recommended upload.
