This game is too inconsistent. One game plays fine the next it takes a clip to kill someone.

Shitty P2P hosting + poorly designed hit detection are to blame. Sadly these are at the core of the game and cannot be fixed.

MW2 had terrible ideas that created imbalance. But the core of the game functioned very well for a P2P hosted game.

BO has well thought out perks and weapons but lacks in the core of the game. Hit detection, spawning, matchmaking all the result of poor programming. This creates imbalance and inconsistent games.

I mostly play TD and my k/d graph looks like mountains and valleys. Last game I played - three separate bursts from my G11 into the chest of a non-moving target about 10ft away. I die. Kill-cam shows me never firing a shot.

Some observations:

If the countdown at the beginning of a match is less than 7 or 8, you are better off quitting and finding a better match. When you are host you will see 13.

If I load up my internet connection with downloads, streaming videos, etc. This stupid game will make me host nearly every time. The game is then unplayable. Most will have yellow bars and as host I will have ghosting/stuttering.

I don't really have a problem. Maybe you aren't as good as you think you are

Sounds like you either lack skill or common sense. If the match has lag, why the frick would you stay and deal with it, then come on here to bitch about it? Leave the match and find another one.

Out of all the "BO has shitty connection" threads on here, i have never had this problem and im running off a router that's connected to dsl.

Im not a game programmer but spawns and hosting arent difficult to change. They already have small patches that address both.
"Core"of the game comment seems a little if not alot off base IMHO.

The only thing inconsistent I have found was MY gameplay, not because of any lag issues or whatever, but because I feel this game is so balanced you can't end every game 30-2.

By far the most balanced COD yet, comparing to MW2 isn't fair as that game was horrible. All FPS will have some connection issues to deal with as to how well you will do but this game balances alot of that with the guns and perks.

Try using the M60 with a foregrip and reflex, i stayed above a 5.0 kd ratio for the 5-6 matches i used it.
