Perhaps a solution to APB's networking issues

[KyoukiDotExe 231]

So with all the recent issues regarding DDoS, I happend to stumble upon this video regarding these issues and how Valve is tackling these issues.
Valve is releasing their opensource and networking solutions to lower ping and defend against DDoS attacks. And inviting others to join along, maybe this is a good opportunity for APB to finally have a good connection/ping without impacting the game as much.

@MattScott, would love to know what your opinion is on this or if this is even something you would consider. Seems like a great opportunity to make it all better, even though I'd assume it would require more devtime.

Would love to hear some thoughts of you on this.

This solution isn't feasible, as it requires an extensive existing network infrastructure (which Little Orbit obviously doesn't have). To make it happen, it would require multiple billions in expensive infrastructure setup, and it's highly unlikely that Little Orbit would make such an investment for a game that's barely scraping by on pity handouts as it is.
