Go all digital, they said...

I'm on the gig plan, despite getting 400 down at best

They better not pull that shyt or I'm raising hell. Unfortunately, Baltimore City let Comcast bribe/sign them into a monopoly. No FIOS

Comcast/ATT/large ISPs are the devil.

CenturyLink gig internet with no caps over here

I actually pay less for it than when I had Crapcast

 

[Rekkapryde]

It was only a matter of time before the greedy ISPs started pulling this

They losing cable subs from people cutting the cord. Of course they gonna get their money back on charging more for internet.

unlimited data with ATT Fiber though


(for now.....)

Caps are shytty but 1.2TB is reasonable.

Seems you should be fine to download/play games with that limit

 

[Luke Cage]

not my problem, my neighbor wifi unprotected.

 

[MeachTheMonster]

You gonna have to download that data anyway, Disk or not

Pretty much.


Most games don’t even put all the data on the disc anymore. Regardless if you buy the physical version or not you’re gonna have to download a bunch of data.

 

[humminbird]

i'm getting physical but not because of this
I just like options

fukk Comtrash I am glad I haven dealt with them in almost a decade.

 

[O³ (O cubed)]

Internet service providers really fukkin you over like that, US brehs? Damn

 

[The Mad Titan]

Cox did this almost out the gate.

Basically as soon as fiber was available they put a cap on 1tb before charging you for going over.


Kinda crazy how cable companies are going in the opposite direction of mobile companies.

 

[The Mad Titan]

Also the only reason to get disc nowadays are

1) collecting
2)resale
3) Let others borrow

If you don't do any of those things then getting disc is pretty pointless. A disc now is pretty much just a physical license key.

As someone who worked with Comcast for over 5 years. They are right. More then 70% of Comcast customers don't come ANYWHERE near that threshold. And again this is a MONTHLY cap. It refresh every month. There's not enough games that even release in a month for you to go over 1.2TERRABYTES of data. Let alone you actually buying enough games to download that amount of data.


But don't get it twisted. It's fukk comcast all day every day as a current Fios customer

Backhaul goes to the same place. They can offer no caps to everyone else but they don't. I hate ISPs. Mobile networks are the same, but they have a harder time expanding in comparison.

I remember growing up and ATT was scamming low income residents on DSL. 128-384kbps and just switching everyone to interleaved because they didn't wanna place the grey cabinet to supply the area with decent performance.

Anyways, I'm sure they'll cap eventually. They still don't let you use other equipment either. I go third party whenever I can. They're all a$$holes though.
