Does anyone play this game on dial up Internet?

USA the world of extremes.
In EU even in ukraine or albania people have an internet connection of at least 2 mb/s >.>
You folks should push your gov to push isp to get to work.

We tried, US was suppose to fully fiber optic by 2000, and gov't was going to foot the whole bill. Then telecommunication companies got wind of it and convinced the gov't to let them handle the upgrade in exchange for letting them bill their customers an extra fee to cover the costs. This happened back in 1996, since then that extra charge has added up to about $400B USD and less than 10% of the US internet lines are fiber optic. Origional estimated cost for gov't to have done it back in 1996... $2B USD.

Not to mention the backbone companies like NTT and level 3 have no oversight on maintaining any kind of standard of quality for their service, with some backbones using infrastructure from the 90's. They also are prone to throttling packet transfers during peak hours of the day and and overloading nodes instead of rerouting traffic.

In a nutshell, US internet infrastructure is a hot mess and laughing joke to most of the rest of the world.
