Was shattered yesterday so didn't bother playing. I will be online tonight definitely. Execution mode, maybe a rotation of 6 maps. After 8pm.

to the new people in the thread, add me to your list and I will send invites if I see you online.

P.S. if you don't have a headset, don't bother joining. I am really getting into the teamwork for this game so "Silent Joes" need not apply. :cool:

Team work? How will you ever be able to beat 109 using teamwork. You will need to play like Rambo. :D
 
Has anyone noticed a particular advantage for the host in this game?

I have noticed a slight bit of unresponsiveness when I am not the host (as I am normally the host when I play). However I have not really felt that this has effected my game particularly.

I read on the Epic forums that the Shotgun is notoriously bad when you are not the host, yet when I am not the host I am just as deadly (IMO)

I got a score of 369 with 13 kills :) I forgot how many downs and revives. I often have to play as rambo since I'm the last left alive :( I think there is something wrong with the game though, it seems to have some sort of grudge against us since we never get put on the same team when we randomize* the teams, but I guess its for the best since the game wouldn't be half as fun if we were team mates.

*even though it hardly ever works

It would not be fair on everyone else if we were on the same team :). Also 109 is rp2000's greatest ever score (actually I think he has done 164 or something but 109 was the one he bragged about).

I never run off and take the enemy on myself... honest. ;)

The host is always going to have the advantage no matter what. I would like to see in the future is that everyone in the game can exchange the data between each other so that everyone is the 'host' (would work in a similar manner to Bittorrent)

-It would eliminate the advantage the host gets
-It would stop the host from being able to make it lag so that he gets an even bigger advantage
-Low upload bandwidth would no longer be such a big issue, meaning huge ammounts of players could be supported in a game without a dedicated server

In theory it could be possible, but of course it isn't going to happen anytime soon or maybe ever at all.



When you eventually play with gord he will be added ;) he can be so annoying when he is the last left alive, since you can never find him until one of your teammates heads explodes from a sniper round

I think bit torrent works because it is not real-time or time-dependant.

What MS really need are servers, so no one is host. or everyone needs super fast upload/download speed.

Obviously from my end everything seems to run smoothly, but how do other people find it when I host. Do I have some sort of crazy advantage, that I am unaware of?


Edit: I don't need to worry about gord, he has my back.

GoW is fine, ofcourse you hear me moan about how many times I shot you more with the shotgun, but thats to be expected since you will have the advantage. I have only ever experienced lag a couple of times but its not lasted longer then 2 seconds.

Of course I have the advantage, I always have the advantage when I have a shotgun in my hand, regardless of who hosts. ;)

I died too many times last night, and only got a single kill. So out of practice.

And Krono has an uncanny ability to shoot once and blow my face off, whereas I shoot a dozen times and hit nothing :(

I'm like a ninja with a shotgun. I sneak up to you and BAM!! your dead.

Like superman I have only one weakness. It's known as Alrik (well 2 if you include Alcohol)
