Re: SAY YES TO MICROTRANSACTIONS

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 13 Mar 2013 23:02:31 GMT

The guy who started this thread is either sarcastic or works for Activision.

The game is extremely laggy and it's really pointless to buy any additions to it.

Wait,,, here is an idea: start to sell lag adventage,

Re: Lag Compensation

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 12 Mar 2013 02:31:31 GMT

For those who say, that lag compansation is not a problem but lag itself is... well, you're contradicting yourself:)

Shouldn't the compensetion code be the solution for the lag caused by players with uneven latency?

Isn't it the whole idea of having lag compensation in the game to make it playable for players with different pings.

Now if the matchmaking system was perfect, let's say 50ms players were perfectly matched with each other, 75ms in different game, why would you need any compensation code at all?

Re: PETITION : We Want The Next Call of Duty To be beta tested

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 03 Mar 2013 19:24:15 GMT

Ok, let me put it straight. The guy who started this thread dubts, that this game was properly tested befere the release date- So do I.

Do you????

Re: PETITION : We Want The Next Call of Duty To be beta tested

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 03 Mar 2013 18:49:12 GMT

you are the one being ignorant saying 'I purchase the game because i decide to"- who cares.

No it's my 4th title.

The last 2 of them seem to be realesed without proper testing, just to make quick sale.

So again, I would like to see better game next year and this kind of threads can have some influance on it.

Re: PETITION : We Want The Next Call of Duty To be beta tested

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 03 Mar 2013 18:29:24 GMT

I don't think that anyone cares why you purchesed your game.

Most of us buys the game with some expectations (as any other product).

Selling the product and "trying" to fix it later is not exactly what we paying for.

Re: Migrating Hosts

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 03 Mar 2013 16:47:52 GMT

It is actually BO2 fault.

The netcode at BO2 punishes the host with about 3/4 of sec. behind.

It's just ridiculous, basicaly to work as a server for Activision at the same time be screwd up with disadventage.

Fortunately there's a way to recognise whether you going to be a host or not. That's why you see so many host migratins even before the game starts

Re: EU matchmaking after DLC - WTF?!

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 02 Mar 2013 20:19:30 GMT

It's not a surprise here.

As not too many people purchesed the DLC pack, the system struggles to make a playable lobby.

Same thing happened on MW3, so expect bad matchmaking and even greater lag than usual.

Re: DNS servers???

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 22 Feb 2013 23:09:54 GMT

DNS (domain name system).

The main purpose of this server is to translate domain names into IP addresses.

It's sort of a phonebook, where you look at a name to see a coresponding number.

Re: Anyone else experiencing Extreme Lag since the new update?

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 21 Feb 2013 01:15:05 GMT

There is a saying "don't bring a knife to a gunfight".

It doesn't seem to be the case in BO2.

In almost every game I see guys running around with knives taking adventage of unfair netcode and being basicaly unstopable. In other games the code makes them invisible, so they can score 100-0 killstreaks.

It's just laughable, it's nothing about skills anymore, only about who is lag lucky today.

Re: BO2 PS3 Patch 1.07 Is Live

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 20 Feb 2013 01:57:58 GMT

Totally agreed,

4 months of compalins about a lag, host disadventage, bad matchmaking and what they do....they just piss on us.

How do they even expect to sell any DLC packs?

Re: Is Treyarch going to address Server Lag by using dedicated Servers for BO2 on PS3?

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 17 Feb 2013 02:52:23 GMT

If you are not the host of the lobby, you automatically have a disadvantage against other players, before firing your weapon. C'mon Treyarch, you sold millions of copies of Black Ops 2 put some of BILLIONS OF DOLLARS MADE by sales into DEDICATED SERVERS for BO2. So, players can start out a game on a LEVEL PLAYING FIELD with less LAG.

the host in BO2 has immediate disadventage and it's basicaly 1 sec behind the whole game.

That's why you see so many host migrations (unlike mw2).

Dedicated servers for BO2 -Nooooo. The game already brought its money.

D. servers for future COD titles-very doubtful, they did nothing after problems with MW3.

Their business idea seems to suck as much as they can, base on success of previous titles.

After the old Infinity Ward team (West, Zampella) left the company, failures of MW3 (sledgehammer) and BO2 (treyarch), I personaly don't see who is able to make fairly playable next COD... if any:(

Re: Not buying any DLC unless you fix the lag!

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 16 Feb 2013 15:01:53 GMT

Buying DLC maps is a dumb investment anyway.

From MW3 experience, already bad matchmaking on regular maps, got even worse on DLC, so most of the players were avoiding them. Finaly, they droped the price by 50% and I don't think it helped with the sales. Lag and matchmaking doesn't seem to be any better on BO2 so you can figure out.

On the other hand, as you're suffering from the lag disadvantage, there're players benefiting from it, so there still will be some sales.

Re: Did they fix the lag?

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 16 Feb 2013 04:22:44 GMT

No they didn't and they never will.

I have my good and bad days when it comes to lag but today it's been extremaly bad.

1 sec behind, invisible enemies, killer walls, paper bullets, suicidal hosting, freezes of all sorts, connections interupted. It's getting only worse, worse....

Re: 25.641.15 LOL WUT?

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 14 Feb 2013 22:47:48 GMT

I went back to my normal connection (no ps3 delay) and It's better than yesterday.

Which means less punishment for low pings.

Re: Hotfix 25.640.15 is a failure

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 14 Feb 2013 02:24:03 GMT

Definately it affected lag issues making it worse for low pings, simply I got to deley my connection again to make it playable.

When these morons understand , that best connections should have the best game experience, not the opposite:(

Re: Hotfix 25.640.15 is a failure

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 13 Feb 2013 22:49:22 GMT

Funny thing, how they name the hotfixes recently.

Instead of changing last digit as it's been always done, they change numbers in the middle. For example yesterday's 25.637.15 was changed to 25.640.15.

Re: SO TIRED OF ACTIVISION and LAG

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 11 Feb 2013 23:23:22 GMT

Same here. I don't even see who is killing me, only kill cam can explain missing seconds.

If I see an enemy, I immediately drop dead, they don't aim at me, they don't fire at me, it's all skipped from my point of view. It's like I'm already dead, I just don't know it yet.

It's the same crap from one game to another. I live in 5 million people metropolis with 10 ms ISP and the search preferences are set to the "best".

Does the "best" refer to the lag???

Re: I must be fighting the lag 99% of the time. What about you?

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 10 Feb 2013 22:00:40 GMT

Well, it means that lag comp is doing what it's suppose to do.

Keep the majority happy and the future sales up.

Re: Why am I always on the loosing team?

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 10 Feb 2013 21:20:07 GMT

If you join a game in progress most likely it will be on a losing team, because some of its members already rage quit due to lag disadventage or simply being worse players and you'll be asign to that team to balance it. Happens to me all the time. When I start game from the begining, I usualy pull a host and we all know what it means:)

Re: It's only January and the game is broken beyond repair

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 10 Feb 2013 17:46:10 GMT

Agreed.

The worst part is that the devs piss on these problems like in MW3.

Fool me once shame on you....

It's the last COD for me. Fortunately there is growing competition in this industry.
