Are you asking because you're concerned about your ISP bill?

That has GOT to suck..... I cant imagine having to pay for internet and have a usage cap.

 

 

As for your question.... you're probably going to have to look into the Battlefield Section of the forum, or other Battlefield forums elsewhere.

Online games generally don't download/upload a lot of data. You should be safe on 4gb if you were ONLY doing online gaming.

I believe it's around 50mb per hour. There are 1024mb per 1gb so if you do the math...

If I did the math correctly, you should be allowed 81 hours per month more or less depending on the game you're playing.

Re: How many mb's will an online game take

What ISP is only allowing 4GB per month?  That's like 90 minutes (or less) of streaming Netflix in HD.

 

If it is a mobile hotspot, it generally won't work well (if at all) for multiplayer gaming.  Most connected devices on a mobile hotspot will get a type 3 NAT, which won't allow player-to-player connections.
