Below has been effecting me even with NAT2, I don't get lag in any other game. But since the new patch I'm suffering shocking. It's incredibly frustrating mid-game.

Lag Detection Check now stricter

This change is designed to catch situations where a player is lagging significantly and causing severe problems.
When the Lag Detection Check occurs, your character will be frozen in place and you will see the Network Trouble icon appear on your screen. This is to ensure the lagging player cannot gain an advantage during this time.

Added Network Trouble icon

If you are seeing the Network Trouble icon frequently, here are some things you can do to improve your connection:
Use a wired Ethernet connection instead of Wi-Fi.
Avoid any major internet usage while playing. Things like torrents, Netflix, YouTube, etc. will have a big impact on your performance.
Ensure your NAT (Network Address Translation) is not restricted (Type 3). To check if it is, go to the XMB --> Settings --> Network Settings --> Network connection test). Check with your router manufacturer for specific instructions on how to open up your NAT for your specific router model.

Network Lag Detection Feedback

Feedback we are looking for:
Are you still seeing severe lag situations, e.g. dying several seconds after you killed another player?
Are you getting the Network Trouble icon frequently? Do you see it almost constantly or only a few times during a match?
Have you tried the above steps to improve your connection?

Wasn't paying attention when I downloaded the map pack. I see all the weapon and skill bundles now.

€14 for all the new guns and skills seems like a lot.

Think I'll just get the Enforcer pistol, that's what everyone has been kicking my ass with.

Just got the latest map pack. For all the new survival skills (Executioner, Scavenger, Awareness etc.) and the Enforcer pistol, can you unlock those with parts or do you have to buy them?

Emm. Like, you download them. The enforcer costs 1 loadout point and is a regular weapon. The skills all function like regular skills

Bit late to the party but I inly played and completed this gale recently. Missed out on the season pass though

Is the DLC mainly for the online multiplayer or is there replayability to the campaign?

Yes it effects the Single player, a new difficulty has just been introduced called Grounded & Left behind is a campaign add-on (An Excellent one) the accompanies the main game.

Launcher is awful. It just shoots a small radius smoke bomb. Expensive too. Its good for support tho. Just not worth for its parts price.

Me, tok9 and jax got back on a winning streak....need Timmy to help complete the ultimate team

Survivors mode later cos I was mean and didn't let him play it last night :P

1 short of a full squad

Yeah. That, and get good at survivors. I can always win games of Survivors :pac:

We need a lot of practice.

Agree, party games last night were tough going. When I was playing games with no parties it was fine.
We need a team of four with possibly one of us with the 'spawn on player' perk in our loadout. The amount of times we were getting overrun was painful.
I noticed a lot of people are spamming the smoke grenade also.
The balance of the game has been messed up slightly with the new perks that were added with the dlc in my opinion.

We need a lot of practice.

I'll be on over the next hour trying to get the trophies..

Wish they weren't added as it's explaining why people are dropping out of matches.

OK the amount of times this has happened tonight so far. Middle of a match I get the prompt 'Leaving Game'

It's so annoying :mad:
