Call of Duty: Black Ops II

Its not hActivision or Treyarch. This is obviously the first MP game on xbox and no one has ever had to set up port forwarding or open up their NAT before.
 
I like that idea of doing all that, I mean it isn't like there have been previous games that worked fine before they tried to 'fix' lag :rolleyes:

Funnily enough I got into a lobby where it actually felt fair for everybody.
If you saw somebody first then you'd get the kill,if you didn't see somebody first then they'd get the kill.
The same players stayed in this lobby for a good 30 minutes. It was probably the most fun i'd had in this game so far. Until whoever was the host quit out and then it all went downhill.

Apparantly the connection issue isn't Activisions/Treyarch's fault, its ours.....

I can't believe they are trying to fob people off with the 'opening ports' excuse for the lag compensation. :eek:

If that was the case then there's you wouldn't get inconsistent matches.
The fact that one game you can kill people no problem and the next you can't kill anybody shows there is a problem somewhere.
 
So far for me I would say in 2 in 5 games I come off worst for lag comp, but towards the end in mw3 it was 4/5 games. Maybe blops2 will be like it if they decide to ruin it will patches.
 
Here's something to try to maybe help with problems:
Complex version that might give better results

1) Goto http://code.google.com/p/namebench/downloads/list and download namebench for your operating system (mac or windows) its a small program only 5mb odd

2) Run the program and you should see it has entered your details ie, location, browser ect (make sure these are correct if not change then in the drop down menus Make sure that Include best available regional dns services is checked, then hit Start, it takes about 3-5 mins to run the entire program so sit back twiddle thumbs till it finishes.

3) Once it has finished it should give you a list of the fastest DNS servers in your area , with the highest showing a percentage increase on speed in the top left hand box, don’t worry about any warning messages you get to do with hijacked domains in the list ect as we aren’t changing your browser DNS only the xbox.

4) Top right hand box will show the primary and secondary DNS sever IPaddresses for the fastest DNS server it found.

5) Turn on your console and via the dashboard open up the system settings tab and scroll down and click onto Network settings

6) Select the connection you use and then press configure network

7) You should now have a screen that is tabbed basic settings with the DNS setting at the bottom, scroll down to the DNS settings and press A

8) Chose “manual” and the screen will now show two options primary and secondary dns servers

9) Highlight primary , press a and enter EXACTLY the ip address for primary shown in namebench in the top right hand box (then press start button to confirm)

10) Highlight secondary, press A and enter EXACTLY the ip address for secondary shown in namebench in the top right hand box (then press start button to confirm)

11) reboot xbox and away you go.

If that works i'll eat my hat.

Since when does the game need to do host resolution during play ? maybe it might speed up your initial log on to multiplayer, but it will have zero affect on the in game play.

That's what I thought. I've been trialling the Google DNS servers in the hope that it might at least retrieve my profile quicker and so far I can say it has made zero difference.
 
Why is it, whatever game mode I play, I am the only one on my team going for objectives?

Play Domination, only I go for flags.
Play kill confirmed, they camp the tags.
Play TDM, they just hide in corners.
 
Cod is and will always be full kill farmers. They need to remove all k/d info from the game. I had a game today full of swedish wannabe kill farmers. They just camped by b and didn't even try to capture it.
 
I guess the random nature of many lobbies means the chances of people playing the objective is minimal unfortunately. I was playing Domination on Nuketown the other night with my brother and it was just us two playing the objective. In the end I had to basically live on B Dom to win the game. I ended up with 31 defends!

Totally agree. They should just show any onjectives you got(flag captured,bombs planted/defused etc) and then your score. And in your combat record show SPM and W/L.
