So ok, I didn'tg wanted to bring the COD subject to the table, but my friends and I are experiencing the same things that took us away from MW2 and Black Ops. This is called host advantage, I feel like I'm playing Gears of War 2. It is just ridiculous. Every time I get the host I feel like I'm overpowered, but on when I'm not I can swear that I'm emptyin and entire clip on someone's back and he can even turn and kill me. If I knew that this game hasn't dedicated servers being an EA game I honestly would not buy an Xbox copy. Piss poor job selecting the host also.

The other things has been discussed here like the hit detection inconsistency. Also the fact that someone is on Stealth and I'm on full Armor and he manages to kill me easily and when you watch the kill cam you are basically hitting the enemy wooth every shot. This makes no sense at all, when someone shoots from Stealth he will lose the energy and he actualy can kill someone with full Armor many times. In my opinion is a matter of consistency that the game lacks off. All weapons but the Scar need a little more punch, the Volt is just a paintballl gun .

But what really kills the game is ten lack of dedicated servers and the freaking host advantage/ poor selection of the host.

Host has advantage in every FPS. In Halo it is more seen in Grifball. Cod...everywhere. Gears...everywhere. Here...apparently everywhere I haven't had a problem with Crysis yet for anything o.O

Ya i mean its weird, we see alot of ppl on here complaining about those issues and i have just not had any, every game i join even if it shows i have a bad connection, when i shoot someone, it hits and shows a hit marker and i dominate, as for shooting out of stealth where it breaks his stealth, your supposed to deactivate your stealth before shooting so you dont break your energy bar.

Exactly my point why someone shoot from Stealth can take down somebody at full armor when encounter each other let's say at a corner?

I forgot another thing, almost every game starts at Terminal. I'm already sick and tired of that Map.

As for every FPS shooter hhast host advantage, well neither Battle Field BC2 nor the latest Medal of Honor have it. Homefront is another example. Gears of War 3 is going to have dedicated servers just to get rod of the unfair advantage, and like I stated being Crysis 2 a game released by EA I tought it was going to have dedicated servers too.

I actually enjoy terminal.. Downed Bird would piss me off if it was played more often. I like the map, but it's just too big for 6v6.

If it wasnt for the lag/host advantage and the terrible spawn points this game would be simply amazing.

I have no problem with the connection in gears 2, halo or cod. I'm completely happy with those, but on these... it doesn't feel like gears 2, it feels like gears 1 bro. Like where the **** does this guy live? China? No, he lives in New York and I also have one bar from him. As i've said before, I love this game, the spawn points are a bit random but I can live with that. But if I can't have a basic thing such as connection, i'm better off playing games like AvP which had better connection than this big budget game.

Don't get me wrong Terminal is a great map, but since the connection is bad many times we got disconnnected and need to start the Squad again and like 99% of the time the 1st selection is Skyline vs Terminal, or if we got directly into an on going game we got into Terminal.

Yezz another problem, and mentioned in this thread to is the spawn points. I can't even count the amount of times that the games starts and I get shot and killed in the back. Please make the teams spawn away from each other...

The Jaw has less blast radious than a greanade.

I keep telling mu friends that this game today is just one week old, so if Crytek get rid of those annoying things we have a game for a long time.

I have a 20MB connection and i always happy because i kill a lot.
