Got an update today! (XBOX360)

Post » Thu Sep 02, 2010 10:04 am

Alright, got the update today (obv..), and the lag seems to be fixed!? Every FreePlay game i've been in felt like I was playing Campaign by myself almost... (with WAY harder opponents lol).

I get a few lag spikes when people Join/Leave, but other then that... not the horribad rubberbanding all over the place... :)

But there ARE a couple things going nutso over on my end... and I want to see if anyone else notice these as well:

1. SPECIAL GRENADES

For some reason now, everytime I try and throw a Caltrop/Sticky Bomb/Molotov/Flashbang, it will appear in my HUD as me throwing a "Regular" Frag Grenade. Only mid-flight will it actually Harry Potter itself into what it really is...? :D This is getting RATHER annoying because I'm playing a Light Soldier/Operative BASED on the Special Grenades... :(

2. CORTEX BOMB

While playing as my aboved mentioned Character, I noticed in Free Play it was very rough trying to pull this off. I would hold the thumbstick down, and then it would act like i'm doing it twice. I blow up, but the other person barely scratched if anything? (Basically not being DMGd by said CBOMB?)

I've seen the CBomb thing happen BEFORE this update though. So I don't think that's new, but still kinda urking meh.

#1 is my MAIN concern, this has been happening to me in literally every game I play ATM.


And ty for fixing the lag!!! :brokencomputer:

I'm still experiencing lag, *after* the update. It usually happens when the match first starts, and lasts for about 1-2 minutes. Then it's fine.
I still get laggy games 3 out of 10 matches. The update did make a noticeable difference, but for a 20Mb connection (up and down) this shouldn't be laggy at all.

It's not as bad as homefront was initially - but wow.

Can we expect another patch guys? I do love the game, and I'm the only one on all my friends list that kept my copy...
