Network Lag - Hosting & Upload Usage

[unmerged(165729)]

Myself and a few friends all bought the game, however a few of us have a very severe problem.

Some of us cannot host the game, (and therefore can't be a DM) - due to the sheer un-optimized network code.

It maxes out our upload connections almost instantly. Ive never had a game do this before - and its not just me! Friends also cannot host. We all have broadband, with the standard UK upload speed, which yes isnt fantastic but - I can host fine in other such games and so can friends.

How can we play as Dungeon Master?

Are you going to optimize it?

At the moment its just ridiculous amount of network usage, i mean, seriously!!!!
