Alien Swarm started out as a mod for Unreal Tournament 2004 and later spawned a sequel developed for the Source engine titled Alien Swarm: Infested. If you're home internet cannot upload 60,000bytes/second (3 people connected) then you're going to have to set a sv_maxrate, to limit each player's rate so that everybody gets their own dedicated chunk of bandwidth, instead of their computers fighting for a piece.Any PC flavoured Steam user will more than likely be aware of Alien Swarm by now and some of our forum lounge lizards will know that I’ve been playing it on and off since it was released. By default it is set at 20,000 (bytes/second).


PLEASE!: When people connect to your listen server, their client has a "rate" setting.
