I am running on a 360. Before you guys made the new tweak to the teams sizes, I have had nothing but lag issues. Before you guys made this tweak, I had little to no lag in campaign. Now, the lag is terrible. I havent been able to play verses since day one, freeplay was iffy and campaign was perfect. My campaign is now now laggggy as hell too. Come on guys, you need to be working on this lag issue 24/7 until you get it fixed. This is getting a little rediculous. WHY OH WHY DID YOU RELEASE THIS GAME LIKE THIS??!!

My campaign is running just fine. And I just got through playing. Also, there wasn't any updates I downloaded save for the first patch. Considering the game makes you update.

The change to the team size didn't require and update

2nd post down is what OP is talking about

I feel like a broken record mentioning this in all of my posts but... have you tried a game mode in Freeplay other than Standard/Big Teams? Competition and Old Skool run fine for me 90% of the time. If you're only playing 4v4 with bots in Standard not much of a change in my opinion. But other than that, I feel your pain.

Thanks, didn't see this. Now this explains why the games always seem full of bots. I was wondering why there was a sudden player drop, it just happens to be I'm in the wrong set.

XBox360 has peer to peer connection and this is why you lag. Peer 2 peer mean a player is host and the rest connect to that host. If you are lagging either your connection to the host svcks or the host's connection itself svcks.

Microsoft for some reason is against dedicated servers. I swear it's a conspiracy.

your lag has nothing to do with the newest live update. it is not a downloaded update for those that do not know. all the new update did was add a new playlist so that people having lag problems can play with fewer humans. the fewer humans in a match, the less lag there is (usually, not always).

They can't charge you $60a year to access dedicated servers....oh wai....

Yes I have tried those. I dont play vs bots anyways. My campaign was working lag free, on all fronts before the change, not anymore. All but campaign were unplayable for me. Now, thats ruined as well. Come on SD. I am really trying to have faith and be patience here. I REALLY want to support this game and see it become everything it should be and more (COD KILLER). Lets get it done please. You have a HUGE staff so it should not be taking this long. Stop trying to push out other crap and fix your issues with what you have already sold. Thank you.

Could it be that people who previously had problems were playing offline and are now playing online and that's what's causing a drain on resources? Just an idle speculation.

I wish it were the case but I have only played online since the first time I cranked it up. I cant explain it but I am hoping for a fix very soon, for all game types (vs, co-op, campaign) as I love to play BRINK but when its lagging terribly, its just frustrating.

What?
