I want to develop a multiplayer game for Android in real time. But I still confuse what is the best way to communicate. I found several options:
- TCP
- UDP
- Ajax / Comet / Messaging, i.e. pubnub.com, beaconpush.com
- Push notification
- Xmpp
- Android Cloud To Device Messaging
- Pubsubhubub Protocol
- SmartFoxServer
I'm just wondering how other real-time games did this. I would like to know the most common way to do this with an acceptable result.
I appreciate your thought. Thank!
