Do you exaggerate much? I find its quick most times, certainly no longer than using a server browser.

Make sure your NAT is open.

I'm not exaggerating at all - my NAT is open fine - tho it only takes very slightly longer with it closed.

It takes far longer than any server browser - I literally can spend upto 10 minutes at a time trying to get into a game, through the frequent host disconnects, lobby closed, migration failed, etc. and then half the time when I get in a game its really laggy, right near the end of the game or I get in and 1-2 maps later host disconnects/migration failed and I'm back at it looking for another game.

Some game modes are worse for it than otheres - I play a lot of groundwar which makes it worse - but other modes aren't that much better.


I'm not sure how I can exaggerate much anyhow... those are the hard figures taken from steam community and barracks, 300 hours on one 156 on the other.

I can absolutely believe you to be honest, I have the exact same issues, join a lobby, counts down from 60 seconds, finding host, match beginning in.... Finding host.... Match beginning in.... Unable to Connect to host. Start again. FFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
 
Yeah see that a lot... its not just my home setup, I have a laptop with MW2 on as well which I've used on atleast 2 other internet connections with the same problem and my brother has exactly the same problem.

lol....there are plenty of us older folk who still cut it with the younger players.

like me for instance...hehehehe
 
Ranked to level 70 (pained me to do so as i was not enjoying nearly as much as i should) stopped playing before christmas.
 
25. 18 hours on SP (completed it last night), and 0 on multiplayer.

Never have any time for MP any more, and it just doesn't interest me.

When I can, I concentrate on games with good SP (it's taken me over 3 months to rack up 18 hours of SP gameplay though!)
 
Im 45, I played the game till rank 45 on MP, then gave up with it. Useless laggy horrible game. It could have been so good, and was ruined by the lack of servers :(
 
23, played 13 hours of mp, completed sp on 360 with a mate.

I gave it a chance and it's not for me. Feels like they have takes a step backward but covered it up with loads of new crap guns and perks.

That and I don't like the new maps.

This thread has prompted me to have another go but I can't even stay in a lobby for more than 1 map. Annoying
