Brad. Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Sounds good, just let me know. When you say lag, how severe do you mean? I know some people who say it lags because "they shot somebody" but watching them shoot, they shot everything but the person. :p One time though one I did have a game lag, my team's movements were so far behind the other team, we got killed trying to get out of our base. I was in the same match as Munky and I had a little bit of lag (stuttery, teleporting kinda lag). I must admit we got into a game straight away, however we had a full 5 man party which always finds and gets into a match straight away. Might play alone tonight if I'm not knee deep into college work :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR3AMxCATCHER Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Still playing on laggy games. Lagswith / standby is still there. I was playing horde on flood with a buddy and he said I went invisible...so yeah, weird I think. Although the new achievements are pretty good. Obviously there are some remaining achievements to hit the 1250 mark. I really do hate how you can't run and shoot you have to stand up for like 5 minutes it feels like.

GameOverRob Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Not necessarily, Bioshock is 1,100. Halo 3 is 1,750. But yeah there are still no weapon glitches where people are starting with no guns - but to them they are shooting unlimited ammo but doing no damage.

gamerboy Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 everyone who is complaining about lag, this can't be the only game you lag on since you are from the UK. I can tell on every online game when someone overseas hosts the game because it is a constant lag. GoW2 can't be the only game you lag on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DELTETHISACCOUNT Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Matchmaking is still beyond ridiculous. Especially when playing alone. I spend more time searching for matches than actually playing in them. It's like trying to get a key for the Windows 7 Beta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gamerboy Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I like how almost every person complaining aobut lag/connectivity/etc... issues are from outseas countries.

Munky, I mean no disrespect, but you really need to drop it. You're coming across as a troll at this point. Yes, you have a valid complaint, but that doesn't mean he's had that problem. The same thing could be said about you, just inverse -- that as soon as someone says something positive, you say something negative. You berating Mystic isn't flattering on yourself.

gamerboy Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Then match me up with Fellow brits, Halo 3 can do it (Y) now i can agree with you that that argument is valid that it should have a country/language choice like other games. Saying the game is worthless because you lag because of an overseas connection is not a very good argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really can't expect to get non lag games when every game is gonna be hosted by an American player for obvious reasons. Then why does Call of Duty not suffer from the same problem? Yes there is lag in similar circumstances, but nothing like I've experienced in GoW 2. It's bearable and more importantly, I can play through it.

GameOverRob Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 UP-COMING FIXES FOR NEW PATCH: A country filter is being added: A country filtering option will be in TU3. It doesn't restrict you to your country because otherwise certain areas of the world would be unlikely to play a match. It will always prefer your country when there is a match/party available. Two Piecing to be removed Cliffy B posted! He mentioned a possible fix on Smoke Grenades. ::wipes sleep from eyes::Wha? I'm here! What's up? Smoke grenades can be a bit annoying. We're looking into it. Epic plans on addressing standbyers to some extent.

And you are so high and mighty to judge and tell me what to post? I pointed out that someone from the US is having the same issues as us over here, something people brought up as the reason why we're having these issues, but it's not. So no, I'm not trolling, and if you care to read my comment again you'll see this little guy " :p " which means I'm not even being entirely serious and kidding with Mystic. I don't need to be told to "shut up" and that the game is perfect when its clearly not (Y) @Rob, how's the hang over :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Mystic MVC Posted January 24, 2009 MVC Share Posted January 24, 2009 robpears: Thanks for the heads up about what Cliffy said. I guess I kind of think smokes added an interesting element into the gameplay. My only complaint is that the down timed is varied. Sometimes you are down for about half a second, other times you can be down for several seconds. I won't complain about further refining. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
