Re: Lag and Screen Jumping Suddenly Horrible today - game unplayable

I am finding the same thing. Also, if you look at the scores at the end of the game one team dominates with a very high KD and the other team gets smashed even with evenly matched players. This could happen from time to time but I'm seeing it almost with every game. I'm starting to think this game was a social experiment to see how much BS gamers would take before they quite playing. It's been almost a year with patch after patch and players adjust themselves to deal with the issues and BOOM! Another patch broken patch comes out.

I totally agree. The entire experience with MW3 has felt like one big patch of crap.

They pushed this broken game out the door to avoid losing money to BF3 ( I have it, don't like it ) and ever since we have all been looking on line to see what we can do to improve our game experience by changing router setting and what not. I'm pinging regularly between 50-60 with 10 mb down and 4-5 up. I'm paying extra for good Internet.

I get hit markers like crazy and opponents don't die. Someone shoots me with a type 95 and it looks like a shotgun blast. In a game I played yesterday I got final kill cam with a gold striker. It took 6 shots from 5 feet away to kill him. I got hit makes and hit centre mass with every shot, WTF. The reason why we all enjoy this type of game is for the competitive game play. If my only competion is my quality Internet against a dial up connection it ruins the whole point of the game. It has become more frustrating than fun.

Re: MW3 - Lag/Slowdown Consistantly (PS3)?

The problem is the game and how it manages the lag compensation. You can read thousands of replys just like yours on the web. Anyone with a decent connection can't play the game. I also really like this game but it becomes more unplayable each day.

The only people who aren't complaning are the ones with a horrible internet connection with two bars going 30 and 2 wondering why this game is so easy and why everyone else is complaining.

My Internet slowed down the other night for about 10 minutes and I became invincible.

I won a gun fights against 3 people at point blank range. There is no way that could ever happen If all things were equal.

This is a competitive game and that's what makes it fun. If someone has an advantage or disadvantage because of poor system management than the game is no longer fun and becomes a frustrating mess. How can players improve their skills and become better players if every game requires a new strategy to overcome a 2 second advantage your opponent has.

If they don't fix this soon they are going to loose a lot of their fan base.

I too am getting to the point where I want to smash this disc or sell it. What is the point of a skill based game if the only factor is connection speed. I can deal with the lame maps. I can deal with the useless shot gun class. I can deal with not being able to have equipment and 2 classes of grenades. I can deal with no light weight or marathon pro for rushing. But I CANNOT handle this ridiculous lag issue. I paid 100 bucks for the special edition and feel totally ripped off! They must have played the game before it hit the market and saw the many flaw it has. . Hell, the maps are all pretty much the same. Same colours, same corners same cluttered with so much junk lying around that you get stuck to at every turn. This game is just broken. I shot an enemy in the head today with a shotgun and the muzzel was right against his face. Not only he didn't die but recovered enough to turn around and knife me. WTF! It's like that every game. I can't play this game because I pay extra to get a good Internet connection? Again, WTF!
