Have to agree with Rob, lag is jsut something you are going to have in a online game, there are no ways around it.  Especially a game that SO MANY people bought and play..

Now should they do something to try to improve it?  Of course, though what people dont get is that most of those fixes are just done and added in via the servers, so no real "patch" is needed..

I get the occasioanal lag myself, though nothing crazy, I can see how it gets frustrating when playing "core" seems to take many many bullets to kill someone, which is why I love hardcore, way more realistic.  a few well placed shots and they drop!!

It would appear that Treyarch is beginning to reset those who hacked their way to the 10th prestige...a problem that largely NEVER influenced gameplay, but was almost immediately recognized by the company and commented on through twitter by saying something along the lines of "saw a bunch of people running around with 10th prestige, bans and resets coming soon."

 

Meanwhile, real problems like lag compensation get treated as a mythical creatures that don't exist, evoking responses from Treyarch on Twitter that revolve around the "prove that there is a problem" mentality. I think it is kind of amazing that a company wants their customers to trouble shoot problems, as if we all paid to be beta testers.

 

Ultimately, what I take away from their decision to fix the prestige thing but to largely ignore the gameplay issues is that they want the game to look all shiny and nice on the outside without any substance on the inside...much like my high school girlfriend.

I understand the argument, but I think you fail to understand that Treyarch has multiple teams that handle particular issues.

There are teams dedicated to policing the game and they will handle the resets/bans. I'm sure that no one from the developtment side of the game will have to be pulled away from their current works to handle resets and bans.
