Every game I play the host has the full bar connection and everyone else has one or two bars. Every kill cam I see myself being killed by a guy who is not aiming at me or tries to melee me and in the kill cam he doesn't hit me yet I die. I start shooting at someone before they even see me and still manage to get killed. I've come up behind people and smacked them 2 or 3 times just to have them turn around and smack me once and i'm dead. The few occasions when there is a good host, say every one with 2 to 3 bar connections and yes thats pretty wonderful for what i've seen so far, the host gets switched after the game.

Because Baby Jesus hates you and Lucifer is host at all times.

Well this makes perfect sense thanks for clearing that up.

The more you know...

I usually don't have host problems. Maybe once in awhile, but even then it's not terrible.

Though I used to have horrid games when I first started playing. I saw some crap that wasn't even feasible even with a Nano-augmented super suit.

I love this games single player. Personally its the best i've played since Half Life 2. The multiplayer is a great idea. I love the balance of powers and the fact that it takes skill to effectively use them to their full potential; however, 2 out of 3 games its a laggy mess.

I just posted a forum explaining everything you just said. I agree..with everything your saying (happened to me countless times)...needs a patch asap

i agree about every third game is crap then lobby shuffles etc. I have an example of crap host when I was on this guys team and we were talking. He said hes lagging bad (had 1 bar host on other team, I had 2 bars) meanwhile he goes 10-3 best on team. Next game he is on opposite team as me and is the host with 4 bars (everyone has 1 or 2 bars) and goes 15-2, top player again.

if you think that this game pick the worst host everytime you play , that means that you did'nt play halo reach XD.
that game has the worst net code i've ever seen.
random selection

Your post confused me. I'm a little baffled.

Halo's host selection was near perfect when I played. I never had connection problems with Reach.

I just didn't like the gameplay compared to the other Halo's.

I dont understand why they can't just make it so that it picks the player with the highest connection to be host.

i'm from italy , so i'm sorry for my english .
anyway i play in one of the most famous team of italy , and everytime i play halo , there's something wrong with the connection : bad host selection , lag , host changin' , teleportation.
i don't know what its like to play in other countries , but for me , expecially against australian , mexican , american people is impossibile to play.

No your English is fine. It's actually a lot more understandable than most Americans here.

I guess it's just your location then because I never had problems with the host selection in any Halo. That svcks.

This game's lag is not as bad as everyone says it is. I'm always at about 2 bars for ping and my game runs fine. It's not like call of duty, where everyone has 3 bars no matter how bad the lag is.

Also, It seems this game changes Hosts every game as a way of helping against host advantage.

How is it Crytek can make such an awesome game, then give it so many bloody problems?
