Didnt Stout or someone post that they were looking at ways to patch the network coding? Finally saw last night the ridiculousness of the host advantage. I had never pulled host before and finally did for 2 games....27-4 and 32-3. I would be getting shot and actually have time to turn and after a dodge and see where it was coming from. Exact same lobby, maybe 1-2 different players and another guy was host and he had almost identical scores by just runnning and gunning and I went like 11-15 for the next 2-3 games. I would get shot and kill cam would show the guy firing through the sandbags at B on Firing range with me not even on the screen and dying. Emptying an entire magazine into people and dying as you reload etc

Is this for XBOX? I play on PS3 and I think the host actually has a disadvantage. The frame rate drops, and sometimes it gets so choppy its almost unplayable. Especially on ground war.

I had to have been host for a game on Firing Range last night. I went 44-4 and I felt like I was invincible.

yea, on xbox. I knew there were lag deaths but also knew they couldnt be avoided just due to nature of the beast, but I didnt realize how big of a difference it really made lol.

that seems to be my normal experience whether I am host or not. Never had these problems on any other online game.

I get this when I'm host and playing groundwar. I hate being host at those times.

It's not bad when I'm host and playing a smaller map or regular 6v6.

ETA: on xbox.

host has had a huge advantage since FPS games were first on Xbox live

hopefully BO can improve the difference, it is pretty ridiculous in a game like COD where you can die in an instant.

games like Halo 2 it was equally bad, but at least you still had to be shot 4 times.

The net code on this game is absolute garbage.

It uses latency compensation but all it really does it reward people with shitty connections.
