i'm not blaming ubisoft, or ripping their throats, but damn, i can barely get in one game without getting the message "game is no longer available". what the hell, i was just in the game, nobody left, i just dissconnected for no damn reason, why? what are you doing about this ubi?

ok guys, i kno exactly what you are talkin about, dont let the "know it all's", tell you that its because the game is in demand and that 10000 ppl just clicked the game at the same time as you did, coz it isnt the case at all. i have done this with server's, with 1 person in, i try to click it, and get *the game session is no longer available*, go back to the lobby...same game is there this time with 2 ppl in... try to rejoin...same message..refresh oohh a person has left the game (probs from lack of ppl joining), back to one...so no the servers aint gettin full are they...so it isnt that..
ALSO
somethin me and my clanmate found...
i have no problems hostin a game..i can host with no probs.
before i make a new game ill go into msn messenger and say hey it will be in X room, and will be called "SERVERX" for example. i then maximise, and wait for him to join..
BUT
if i make the server, and THEN MINIMISE AFTERWARDS CREATING IT, he can see it in list, but he gets the *game session is no longer available message*...even after its been remaximised
COULD THIS HAVE SOMETHIN TO DO WITH THE LACK OF GAMES??? ARE PPL HOSTING THEN MINIMISING AND DOIN SOMETHIN ELSE WHILE THEY WAIT FOR PPL 2 JOIN??
WELL I TELL YA NOW, IF U MAKE A SERVER
*DO NOT MINIMISE YOUR GAME WHILE WAITING FOR PLAYERS TO JOIN!!!*
if you dont believe me, get a buddy with the game patched up to the same version, AND TRY IT!!!

i was talking about the xbox version though, so there shouldn't be any problems about minimizing or whatever. it's a shame though because ubi soft makes kickass games, however they kinda need help on coding multiplayer (etc. Ghost recon), it's not that big a deal if it happens once in a while, but every damn game....or every damn server....

I agree, Ubi always seems to mess up on Multiplayer... could they not get the hint? People whine about it on everyone of their games!
They're such brilliant games too!
No..Ubi keeps messing up on their rankings more.(Rainbow Six 3 too) THey make awesome games..but mroe of their games are jsut getting buggier and buggier and soon there wont be UBi cause of there games will be extremly buggy.
We all are getting sick of this Ubi.Why don't you guys respond or AT ELAST look here....it is your forums.

yeah, i see now, the multiplayer games on both platforms are very similar indeed, infact the pc version is just a port from the xbox multiplayer, so i can see them both having the same problem...they both have screwed up netcode, ubi are probably working on a resolution to this, but i spose it will take a while for them to produce a patch for both systems that irons out all of the bugs..

They are fixing the stuff..,.look what they said the last auto update
"Please be aware that this autoupdate was developed and made available in an extraordinary short delay so that this issue could be fixed as soon as possible, because it forced players to reboot. The drawback is that we couldn't address any other problems raised in various XBOX forums."
