**G.R.A.W. OcUK online Games**

I'm about to give up on it :( Spend the last 20 mins trying to get a game and everytime i got into a room the game had just started so I had to wait ages for next round or go back, but going back takes you right back to the start of the multiplayer menu. Such bad useability really annoys me. How hard would it be to take you back to the search results page? When I finally got in a game I lasted about 10 seconds before I was disconnected. I have a great connection, hard wired 8mb down / 512kb up so thats not the problem.

Its just no fun whatsoever. Just finished single player which i enjoyed so might replay that on hard and then see if theres a patch out before deciding whether to trade it in.

This reliance on people hosting games on their own machines is a real achillees heel of Live. Publishers need to invest in proper centralised servers, as EA did for BF2. After an initial bout of enthisiasm for live when I first got my 360 its seriously beginning to wane as each new game has problems :(. only PGR3 and PD0 seems to grasped the netcode properly :(

Having said that I dont regret buying it - its a great game in single player, and if they sort the online issues with a patch it could yet be saved!

Top games that night, esp the Co-op territory with infinate AI comming at you, and running out of ammo lol, was intense!, I say we try and hold out for 10 mins next time! :D
 
If people don't mind I would be up for trying this online with some of you lot? I expect I will be rubbish, but I won't improve if I dont try! not had a chance to play the sp game much yet, but aim to try that next week:)

I am about after 9pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sat:) until around 11:30-12 (children are asleep, and wife is at work:D).

Tried mp and won't touch it again not enough spawn points and those that know the maps just camp the points. Shame I enjoyed the sp.

its good if you can get some mates in there though, i never play against random people, and i only play co-op stuff as i prefer working human vs AI rather than human vs human

Don't give on it just yet. I agree it is frustrating, just rtying to find a game can get you tearing your hair out, whatever the reason for the delay to graw it wasn't to sort the mp servers :rolleyes:

But, there are some great players on there and once you know who they are makes all the difference.
