WTFast
WTFast
It helps a bit, but the improvement is minimal. My ping increased slightly from 170 to 166, which isn't a significant change.
It's fascinating how it varies by region. I tried FFXIV on American servers and it really made a difference for me. My girlfriend and I both played, plus another player from my raid group in the Philippines was using WTFast instead of regular methods. He relied on Pingzapper for cost savings, but I found WTFast more reliable. Even with high stakes, I struggled to recall exact numbers.
I noticed it on Steam once; it received the poorest ratings I've encountered, around an 18% negative score.
I observed a significant variation in an MMO that depends on strong ping (Mabinogi). When playing on servers from the West Coast of the US in Australia, I saw a noticeable boost after trying WTFast. Although it was a while ago, I’m sure there are even better alternatives now.
I only tried it once in Final Fantasy XIV; the Verizon connection to NA servers worked well then. It didn’t help much in any other games.
