Looks like Blizzard is stuck in the 90s?

Also, isn't HoN P2P, meaning that if you start a game with no one else in it, you're not actually connecting to anyone once the game starts? | ||

(So long as all the other tests were also against a computer online) The client decides what rate to send the commands at, so it buffers them until it reaches that point. In BW, for example, the lowest latency without being single player is to send commands every 2 frames, so it buffers on even frames or sends on the odd ones (or vice versa, I can't remember). So even if you aren't playing with any actual players to send commands to, it still does this buffering. | ||

There is also the issue of whether the games runs on ticks rather then unlimited. I believe its the former system to cause more precise/regular sync between players. | ||

There's no such thing as "implementing lan latency". The "lan latency" plugin for BW just changes some variables in the client that were still set for dial-up connections (or something like that, anyway). There's no special code that magically reduces latency between computers on the internet. | ||
