If your hosting a game it won't use hardley any downlad but it will use uploads. Opposite for if you are joining a game.

As everybody says, yes it does contribute to your download/upload. Some ISP's charge you for the upload as well. I'm pretty sure Telstra is one of them. I'm on Optus and they don't charge you for upload, just the download.

As for how much it will use in strikers, I couldn't give you an exact figure. If you are on a plan that's more than 200mb, you shouldn't notice the useage. If you are on a 200mb plan, then you will most certainly notice it.

I dont think it takes much, cause I looked at my volume useage before and after I played a bit of strikers online, and it only used about 48MB I think.
