What games do you find playable on Hughesnet?
I figured we should start a thread to help track what games work with Hughesnet Gen5 service, as well as what platforms those games use. To help others figure things out, we should try to use a form...

I figured I would try it. Amazaingly the game detected my latency issue and actually showed a popup meter in the upper right hand corner of the screen showing the latency times. It also showed a warning stating that it noticed my connection had the latency issue, but instructed me to just lead my targets a little bit to compensate for the issue. it is still very playable. i was surprised!!!!!!!!
I think I'll be picking that up then.I've wanted to any way since it has a campaign
Anything that requires any kind of reaction time is not gonna be an enjoyable experience. Lowest latency I have ever seen was around .6 seconds. For any FPS that is an eternity, and you're dead before you even realize you are being attacked. During peak hours, I regularly see latency of anywhere from 1.2 sec to 6.6 seconds, which is completely unplayable. On days you can manage to get a good connection, it can be passible for MMO's, as long as you don't intend to group or raid. More than 3 or 4 people in a group causes tons of lag.
