I'm currently writing a silverlight game that uses TCP communications. However, it is pseudo-turn based so while I need data pushed to the client, absolutely real-time isn't completely critical.
What would be the advantage of moving to the new (in beta 2) WCF duplex communications? I've already got my server talking TCP, so I don't want to switch unless there are advantages. One thing I was thinking was firewalls. TCP is going to require the client to open up a port on their firewall to communicate. Could I get around that with WCF duplex?
I'd love to hear more on this new Silverlight communication ability from someone in the know. Thanks!
