xbox voice chat - bandwidth usage

Beardimus

Hi, curious if anyone knows if there is a big difference in network usage between Guild Chat, in game, or being in native Xbox Party chat.

I read party chat used way more just curious if anyone has tested (yeah lazy question)

Don't think it does. XBL runs at a constant 2mb iirc. Been a while but when I moved place a year ago I couldn't go without internet so I streamed BF4 off it for about 50hrs worth of gaming and worked out that was all it used. In party chat for pretty much 99% of it.

using party chat used to cause in game lag for me, before i deactivated cortana,
so i think it uses more of my bandwidth
but i could never be bothered to check

Turn that crap off. I got killed so many times due to it trying to do stuff based on conversations I've been having.

cortana went about 3 days after she showed up, it was in those 3 days i was experiencing the worst lag, even worse the DB update! LOL

Final straw was on BF4 someone had the gamer tag.
