Multiplayer Connection

Week 2:

This game is amazing when you are the host. There are so many options with the suit that it takes some strategy to survive. It is so awesome to be getting shot at, turn around and get the enemy shooting you. It rocks to actually hit what you are aiming at. Then, the rest of the time this game feels worse than Black Ops. You spend half a magazine shooting at someone only to get killed by what appears to be a one shot kill. The killcams are so bogus sometimes. Yesterday it showed me getting shot at by pistol, the guy trying to melee (missing me), him walking up to me, and I die. He didn't touch me again with melee or bullet. I also got killed by a feline being hip fired from across the map. They need some more game types in this game. The objective modes seem to be too short of a game. I can get the most number of kills on TDM and FFA. There seems to be more people trying to camp too. People hiding in corners and bushes is so lame. It slows down the pace of the game so much on bigger maps that it gets boring spending the whole time running around the map just looking for people. They need some larger lobbies. This is a beautiful game with a substandard online experience. EA really messed up by not having dedicated servers in this game. The honeymoon phase is over now. I am shelving the game for a couple months to see if they can make this better. This game should be beating COD not lagging like it.

I just finished a match on terminal, everybody on my team had only two bars. The host on the other team had four and at least two others on his team had three. It may not be common, but we still won 50-45.

I've seen the host be bottom/middle of the team score board just as often (if not more) than host at the top completely dominating.

Tactis and knowledge of how to use the suite> connection advantage.

I've had plenty of 20 kill/MVP games wth 1 red bar, thanks to opposition having no idea of how to use the suite functions.

80% of the time i have 2 bar, 15% 1 bar, 5% 3 bar and I enjoy the game and manage decently enough. Never had host
