So the requirement can be boiled down to something like this, The rasterization happens at the server end (having 3d hardware) and the image generated should be transferred to the clients. This can be speeded up by using compression / encoding etc. but in the end getting a FPS = 30 which makes the game playable is not an easy task doing it real time. Maybe this has to be looked at from a different perspective or its not practical in real case ...
