Yes and no... Yes: it will "work" as in you can connect, but no it won't work decently. You will lag all over the place.
Your best bet is games with max 8 players. The more players, the more data needs to be sent and received and the more you'll lag.
Moreover, many servers now set a minimum bandwith because people on dialup aren't really "wanted". The reason: your data is being sent too late cause it's in a waiting cue, hence people fall down without you even being near them. So they got a script which sets your bandwith automatically to 128k, so u get too much info, so u loose connection.
Satellite couldn't have been very playable, though? Huge ping?
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord
