And now i will go online and play the last three levels and complete prestige master.

Then i will start up a new account on Netflix for one month free, just to keep me away from this.

All of previous games was better (exept when all the hackers came along). But they will take over this game when time come.

Just make it simple. Good connection=good gameplay. If you do not have good connection then upgrade. That is how it should be.

If they wanted to make this game an E-sport, that's what they would be focusing on. Not trying to smooth player movements which allows players with higher ping to have their hitbox floating around somewhere in the abyss.

When you get to the heart of the issue, the gameplay is an OPINION.

You do know what they say about opinions right?

Appreciate all the disscussion and like I said in my OP, I know there are issues with the game and just for the record I usually have a 4 bar connection and do experience lag issues and get lagged outta games and lobby's alot, but just choose not to complain about it as I see others complaining and nothing being done about it...so I just accept the game as it is and enjoy playing it despite the issues.

Not saying anyone is wrong for complaining, just stating why I am not complaining...despite it all I really enjoy this game.

I brought this up a couple of times.

Those who started in MW3 and now BO2 either just accept the flaws or don't know that the previous game played better online.

I am somewhat ignorant on alot of this, but the question that came to mind...10 yrs ago was the game you played a console or PC and did it have dedicated servers or was it dependent on the internet of different hosts?

Re: Why I am not complaining...

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 17 Jan 2013 19:02:22 GMT

If i was able to play FPS games online 10 years ago without this problems than it sure is how that the game was made. To make more money=more people to play i guess this is the result. In the good old days if your connection was good the gameplay was good. I remember complaining when the ping was above 15 ms. (If the line was stable, which it was, you could make adjustemnt yourself to compensate. TimeNudge in Q3 for example).

This is beoynd crappy online experience. And for those saying that multiplayer is a bonus to this single player game; i think that a lot of people buy this for multiplayer only.

When the quality is too far off the expectations i complain.

When you by something you kind of excpect that it works properly.

Exactly!! I did not buy a NEW game for it to be a downgrade of the last one.

Don't know what country you live in but kids today can not buy guns. Can their parents by them a gun? Sure but anyone under the age of 18 can not buy a gun. Some specific guns or states require you to be 21.

I agree, but for the most part the game works fine. Most of what I hear all complaints being contributed to is "Lag" and that is due to internet connections if I am not mistaken and not the way the game was made.

Gallp - were you not one of the people in MW3 that suffered from the lag / out of sync issues? If so, what changed on your end? New ISP? Hardware? Router settings? Location? Maybe your play style or game type?

Re: Why I am not complaining...

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 17 Jan 2013 15:57:35 GMT

I'm not complaining because I enjoy the game. the lag isn't any better or worse than mw2. people are just freaking themselves out.

Re: Why I am not complaining...

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 17 Jan 2013 15:56:11 GMT

But the thing is, some people need to complain about certian things. If this world worked the way you described it, then all we would be getting year after year is just another mw3.

But i like treyarch, they always put new things in games. Besides a cuple small things like your streaks dont bank even though they dont stack kinda annoys me, along with how a cuple kill streaks were over thrown, so that many people will never achieve those score streaks.

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 17 Jan 2013 12:13:04 GMT

It's responses like yours that I am talking about. I understand what 3Arch is and isn't legally obligated to do for this game.

To tell people they don't have a leg to stand on when they have complaints about multiplayer simply because multiplayer is considered an afterthought, a free addon or a bonus, is stupid. Multiplayer defines the Call of Duty franchise.

BTW, I personally have no issues with the game myself and feel I have gotten my money's worth out of it.
