Anyone noticed any improvement? Its seems to be much smoother than last week, could have been too many people playing.

If anything its worse then last week. Until these issues are sorted out I won't be playing online.

i have been a fan of the COD games.. thought they would never sort out the lag issues on Black Ops, but they did and i enjoyed the game.. now MW3 this is just FUBAR..
I find if i play FFa during the day i win 75% of the time and if not placed in the top 3.. But as soon as join a large room or join my Clan for an Ops i get hammered.. shooting guys in the back with half a clip and they pop round a corner,, pop back again and kill me with 1 or 2 bullets.. or stabbing a guy before he stabs you yet i die and scream at the tv.. go back and watch the kill cam and i havent even taken the knife out..or another fav of mine being shot around corners,and the respawn issue is shocking.., wtf.. its really is doing my nut in.. im with upc and have given my ps3 a static ip address and UnpP is available.. speedtests are all good and mostly my ping is under 25.. but on mw3 my ping often slips onto 150ms games??? im really getting frustrated with the game.. and that aint what its about..

so its NOT just me !!!

have spent more money on controllers over the last few months than I have on the live membership !!!!

crazy stuff, speedtest reports everything flying along (im with UPC on 100mb ) but as soon as I start the game I can only seem to get into games over 100ms !
on the odd time I get into a 50ms game, I end up screaming at the TV :mad:

have opened ports in the router, wired it directly to the router etc etc etc.

dont think there is any fix to this, which is even more annoying !
dont think I'll bother with the new MW game this year

the key to finding below 50ms games is to search for a game, if it goes up to 75< ms back out and search again, i have to do this over and over again when im trying to find TDM games, its nothing to do with your connection lagging or whatever, its due to the crappy match making in the game, try it out, you may be searching for a game for over a minute but at least you will get one that is below 50ms

also if you could also manually put a ip address on your xbox or ps3, and then log onto your router page and set up a dmz host, it bypasses all the ports.

Last time I set up the DMZ for my xbox it turned into a strict NAT type... I gave up at that point :P
