Call of Duty: Black Ops II
- Thread starter antijoke
- Start date
The trend I'm seeing now is that almost every game I play now I'm host. People have to be hammering their connections to make their ping worse or that and a combination of downloading huge files. When host this game varies from playability - people either take a bit longer than usual to drop and insta deaths (whilst there) don't happen constantly in a game. OR it's insta death city and I can't kill anyone.
I've also noticed that when shooting people at smg range with a suppressed smg, it takes so many bullets to kill and if all of them don't connect, you're dead.
Lag compensation in your favour with a shotgun makes you beast.
Oh and during a game, lag compensation will change consistently between each gun fight, so typically you are trying for blood thirsty challenges, get 4 kills fine and then lag compensated for then fifth fight and die.
I don't know this for certain but I think black ops 2 consistently evaluates players connections during a game and tries to make the game fair based on clever calculations but since people's pings change constantly it doesn't work.

I've actually bought another copy of that on Ebay as i've been told it plays quite well now.
Double weapon XP and I couldn't even finish 2 full games before I switched it off in disgust at how bad the lag was. I could shoot at people with the KSG and nothing happened, yet when I shoot ahead of them I actually get a kill. I really wish that I had some of these magic hit boxes that make me untouchable to everyone else, it might then make this game somewhat playable.
^ That isn't the C word I would use.
It is stupid it is like that, seems every new cod comes out the more camping that happens. Not the ideal solution but try HC KC, some people camp but a lot more movement than HC TDM.
Saying about the connection, the problem os consistancy, Saturday morning I felt I was playing god mode but by sat afternoon and sunday couldnt touch a thing.

Same experience really, though every game I have played where the team are trying to capture has been so laggy that it is hard to play. What I don't understand is those who stay for the whole game but aren't going for objectives - why? If they are only kill farming why stay as they tend to go quite a lot negative against us as a party.
because all they need to do is get to "their spot"
They think once they get there they can head glitch away and rack up the kills again and claw back their K: D
If you notice the kill farmers we play against always try and get somewhere time and time again. On Raid they like getting in amongst the rocks at the back of B, lots of head gltich spots there. On Hijacked they like getting in the kitchen, or on the balconys overlooking the spawn.

I search for best connection and I get stuck into a lobby with an Italian host, anybody would think it was the UN since everyone there was represented (France, Spain, Italy, UK and Germany).
Just imagine the worst laggy game you've ever been in and then multiply the bull**** by 10x, it was so ridiculous that I couldn't even get mad.

You rang
Never occured to before but if 'best' equals most of europe then what do the other options connect you with. I do wonder whether part of the problem is the number of players, I noticed over the weekend there were 500,000 players online but older cods have had over 1,000,000 players at a weekend.
