Game-breaking lag today : Othor Games

» Fri May 20, 2011 1:59 am

I got the game on the day it was released (360) and haven't had too many problems with lag. Today has been a whole other story however. Playing with any other people makes the game either freeze or when it doesn't freeze, it's completely unplayable. even with only one other human player on my team of bots versus a team of 8 bots the game was unplayable today. I always have a full green bar and the lag is just as bad when it's showing all human players with full green bars

Very frustrating because I love the game and I'm really close to lvl 15 and unlocking a bunch of new abilities

Now I'm starting to understand everyone's frustrations this week....

You gotta wonder... by the time SD fixes the lag (IF they fix the lag), is there going to be anyone left playing the game?

It seems to only be a problem with CO-OP (players vs bots)
Regular online is fine for me, and actually, the exact same thing happened with Halo Reach

I would be fine on regular multiplayer, but CO-OP campaign and firefight was nearly unplayabe

a lot of people in 360 are waiting for patch to play, if a lot of people are like me

I'm waiting for the patch, in the meantime I just level up my class specific chars on private games.

No. It's a problem across multiplayer.

I had my first case of lag today. It was pretty bad, but I have experienced it only a little.

And this is on Xbox.

Lag is rediculous in this game. I just love it when I shoot an enemy, then a wall, then refocus on the enemy, then in some random direction. It takes all 45 rounds just to take somebody out when it lags :/

Actually I fear there wont be anyone left :-(

Tried for 5 hours last nite to find a decent game, i had no luck at all, 5 straight hours = not a single decent playing match. I think the game has potential to be freaking awesome, but not gonna hang around if i will be unable to play.

And i have 19.8 mb down, 2.5 mb up (Swedens biggest internet company) so i dont think i can blame my connection.

All complains aside, all i (we?) want to do is to be able to play the game!

my 2 cents.
