Hi Michael, I don't have a direct answer to your question, nor can I speak for other gaming companies, but I can certainly work with you off-list on ways to monitor connectivity and performance to our game, "League of Legends". Hopefully also find some ways to optimise routing between our networks. Happy to assist any other network also - it's great to see gaming appearing on more and more radars.

I'm in the education space and we get lots of questions/complains about this and would like a way to make the stats public.
I could roll something with RRD and Smokeping but with all the packet-shaping crapola (including that which we use here) I need something that emulates the actual game traffic as would be classified by all the network crap that endeavors to mess with it.
(not intended to be an argument about QoS and prioritization, responses addressing either --or the politics thereof-- really aren't helpful).
