Black Ops.. waiting for 3 more players.

    Hi all,

    I am having real real difficulty in getting to actually play FFAs, TDM or any multiplayer games.. I tried last night for over 4 hours and didn't manage to get into one game..

    I usually play FFAs and keep getting 'waiting for 3 more players'... and 3 more players never join.. I wait at that screen for 5 minutes or so.. I then try TDMs and can never get into a game.. I changed from Locale to Locale Only and back to Default and it doesn't make any difference..

    Seems the only way I can get into a game is join a friends game in progress which isn't the way this should work. My friends can get into games no problem.. I only really started to notice how bad it is recently as my friends aren't online as much these days as the last few weeks.

    I am on Eircom NGB.. bout 5MB download constantly.. NAT type is Open. Ping usually 130 which is bad i know..

    Is there anything I can do to get into games?

    There is a lot messed up in the game lately.
    Rendered clips no longer appear on youtube, i have more difficulty than noraml getting into games and the lag is just a Bi*tch...
    Hopefully the patch due late next week should take care of a lot of this

    ?


    Are you sure your nat is open you can always check by putting in your mw2 disk as it says what your you nat type is in party.

    If your looking for local only i can see why you would be having problems (130 ping) but if you have changed back to default you should have no problem joining games.

    Tricky one , i'd get on to eircom about getting your ping reduced for a start and work from there.

    I checked on Black Ops itself.. under Options on the Multiplayer menu and it says Nat is Open.. I can also check MW2 but I don't think that is the problem.

    I tried Default/Locale and Locale only and makes no difference...
