    so torn about getting these maps. i dont think i like the game enough to get them, despite how good they look.

    Can't wait to use the RC XD on Grind - :D

    That lodge map reminds me of Estate - James Bond here we come!!!

    Whats the story with match making these days. I dont seem to be able to find any games and after an age I get put in a game halfway through and with 3 yellow bars but feels more like 2.
    Normally play Merc or Chaos Moshpit, but even Core TDM doesnt find me a game.
    I've played around with preferences - Any, Normal, Best and they all are really slow to find a game.

    Up until a week or two this wasnt a problem - maybes its some 'hotfix' they put in that doesnt like me?

    Doesn't seem to have improved much to me, but i hear Vonderhaar is concerned that the fore grip attachment may be of very limited use on most guns so maybe they'll buff it...priorities at Treyarch.

    Someone put up a video on youtube (Drift0r maybe?) showing how it has no positive affect on any gun bar the Scar-H and it makes a couple of guns drop in accuracy. Hardly game breaking. What is game breaking though is not being able to get into a game...

    Some nights I get into good lobbies on KC, where it's majority Irish and UK players. Then other nights I struggle to get into any of them and when I do it's nothing but Spanish/French/German players and my connection takes a nose dive.

    Exactly, can't see a fix coming anytime soon unfortunately which is sad because if they sorted the connection problem the game would be fairly well balanced.

    I think the slow matchmaking kicked in over Xmas - maybe the volume of people playing is killing the matchmaking servers.
    I dont remember previous CODs being as bad as this to find a game.

    Could it be your ISP? The reason I ask is I have no problems at all finding a game, usually within 15-20 seconds. With a full party it can take longer but for the most part it's OK and hasn't changed from what I can see.

    Connection to me seems to have improved alot since release as well IMO. Now don't get me wrong, there are times when I have THOSE games but usually it's grand


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Makaveli


    Seems to be random. Was finding games easily on Xbox last night but the night before on PS3 it was hit and miss.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,647 ✭✭✭Luap

    Yep - I checked my ping and its up over 100ms instead of the usual 35ms. I need to get eircom to adjust my profile back to the settings I had prior to Xmas.

    Cheers.

    As far as I know, all DLC releases are on Xbox a month before PSN.

    i thought 100ms is better than 35ms, what does this mean? i belong to the stone age when it comes to things that technical, but i know mine is 100ms.

    Lower the better. 100 is terrible for an online fps. I was watching a lad streaming for a bit last night. He was saying that he had a 6ms ping.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,152 ✭✭✭✭KERSPLAT!


    Mine averages 28-32ms. Is it true that upload is also a factor? My dl is about 15Mb/s but my up is only about .5Mb/s

    Upload only matters for hosting.

    Yup, usually in around a month ahead of xbox.

    What's the price tag on the DLC lads?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 101 ✭✭swampyk08


    Revolution Map Pack is 1200 MS Points or buy the Season Pass for 4000 MS Points.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,073 ✭✭✭MarkY91
