According to Apex, multiplayer games of Payback 2 will run fine on 3G and even EDGE connections, although they'll obviously work much better on LTE and Wi-Fi.
The use of peer-to-peer connections is designed to keep latency low, and smart compression techniques mean the game doesn't use up too much bandwidth. 'Multiplayer is a really important part of Payback 2,' said Apex, so the studio made an effort to ensure the game is playable even on low-bandwidth, high-latency connections. Payback 2, the sequel to one of the first Grand Theft Auto-style iPhone games, is coming soon, and developer Apex Designs detailed the game's revamped multiplayer connectivity and controls on its website today.
