[QUOTE="Steel_Wind, post: 8862639, member: 20741"] Not anymore, no. We've been doing exclusively online for quite a while - and it predates our use of Foundry by ~8 years. Our group's "hard line" rule was because of Skype video and we instituted it around ~2012? We've stuck with it ever since. When one of our group had his desktop go down or is joining via laptop from a hotel room and is on Wi-Fi it's still ok on a 50/50 basis (depends on the Hotel)- unless he is in the UK -- then it's [I]instantly[/I] unplayable via Wi-Fi. Just one person causing video to span 10 time zones and then timing is [I]very[/I] tight. It's not just transatlantic though: [LIST] [*]4 players in California + me in Toronto = ok if 1 Cali player is on Wi-Fi [*]4 players in Cali + 1 in Penticton B.C. + 1 in Toronto = same Wi-Fi player in Cali = LAG (again, D20Pro in 2019, pre-Foundry) [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
