As most have found out these game types have hardly any lag, and also for those of you that want to play without bots both of these don't allow them.

I wish the fact that they don't allow bots was better advertised - maybe a bullet point in the list? Can that be added Devs? Getting tired of playing in rooms with 80% bots now

Where are these modes?? Do you have to unlock them?? I only have choice of campaign, freeplay or challenge. I see something new or that I missed with every post I open.

They're listed in the manual.

When you're in freeplay and going online, they're options under "Match Settings" - on PS3 I don't get these options though - I THINK they're only available when you're online.

When you go to free play than public match go to match type i believe, its always set at standard. Click on that and ull have 4 different game types to play from. these 2 are the best game types that dont have a lot of lag in my opinion.

They're online features, us PS3 people don't get them in Solo mode. You can recreate it by having 5-player teams and friendly fire on for competition sort of.

Thanks for the info guys. Played Old School mode tonight. It was great to hear some human voices for a change. I didn't even realize that voice chat was disabled in standard mode, I just thought I was the only one with a mic. It did however svck that me and another guy ended up playing two matches in a row without any opponents.
The game is definitely opening up a little more now thanks to the info here on the forums.....knowledge is power, glad we can all share the wealth.
