View Full Version : Multiplayer is terrible and a huge dissapointment

I was looking for a new multiplayer game that I could get into. I'm really not into the run and gun arcade shooters like COD. So I picked this up cause it was suppose to be a tactical shooter. Well of course after getting to level 13 in multiplayer I can say I'm actually quite disappointed I thought it would have been more enjoyable. Instead I got a game marred with issues.
1. Unbalanced teams. I noticed matches always seem to be one sided. Not many matches go down to the wire. They seem to stick all the good players on one team and give yours headless chickens. I also find myself on the losing team 80% of the time since I don't have a squad to play it. So I get stuck with random Knuckle heads who do nothing, absolutely nothing. They don't pursue the objective . I find myself constantly arming and defending objectives by myself while my teammates are camping in a corner far away.....or at the spawn,prone, sniping. It also seems that whenever I'm on Ghost I win and when I'm on Team Bodark we lose . They should probably name Team Bodark ,team loser instead.
2. Crappy Servers/ lag issues.- Constantly getting dropped from games. Constantly getting killed behind cover. Yet kill cam says my body was exposed around the corne?.No it wasn't I was in the center so how could I possibly be shot around the corner? Also how did I get killed when its clear from kill cam none of his bullets hit me.Whats best is when the Kill cam gives me clear evidence that I shot a guy about 4-5 times before even gets a round off and yet still kills me with one round
3. Limited weapon choices. Not much to choose from. Also LMGS? M-60, RPK? These suppressive fire weapons don't exactly seem to fit the the theme of the game.
4- Sensor balls. One of the main reasons multiplayer is terrible. The biggest crutch in the game. Its so great being spotted through walls. Especially when my team isn't doing crap. Nothing takes the joy out of a game more than given a team X-ray vision. The sad part is they are such a crutch that they will be spammed and abused.
5. Snipers camping prone in corners with camo on
6. Game modes suck- Enough said here I thought they could designed better game modes. Siege was good. Conflict is alright.

OMG why post a thread like this when there are 1 million other people posting the same thing, read the bleeding forums and post you views on their topics rather than fill up the forum with junk like this

This is curable by getting to know other players and playing with them more.. there will always be randoms playing the game but if you can get a swaud of two or three guys when you play than youll enjoy it more. you on xbox??

Known issue that hopefully will get fixed

Limited? the LMGs and stuff do have a spot in the game, but I agree to many people use them and spray and pray!!!

Very annoying indeed... I understand its Future Soilder, but there has to be a limit to these or something
5. Snipers camping prone in corners with camo on
Havent encountered many of these, but can see how it would be frustrating, seing how they invisible lol

They do need some better modes and bigger maps

Game works perfectly when you have a squad of 4-6 people, you just need people you trust to watch your back.
Title update will hit along with the DLC in July

Yea. Nothing more annoying than Big red letters telling me I'm detected. My soldier might as well take out a pistol and shoot himself in the head by this point. Since there about 3 frothy soldiers 10 feet away with their cross hairs following me through the walls.

Irrespective, go on one of theirs and post your compiled complaints. I come here to read hints/tips or find someone to play with yet all you get is people *****ing about the game, hence take it to a thread already *****ing

Conflict as a gamemode is awesome. It takes the fighting all over the map so your not focused on one locale everytime you play. I admit that there could be a better balance between objective locations in terms of the closeness to either teams spawn, but if you have a good squad you can overcome that most of the time. That brings me to my next point-
Most of the issues you describe can be fixed by playing with reliable teammates. You can't blame Ubi for people playing like clueless jerks.
I've never really had any problems with snipers on this game. They actually seem quite under-used IMO.
All in all you should try to find a squad because the game (like any other) becomes much more enjoyable when playing with friends.

I think the MP is great!
Actual mongoloid kids with down syndrome mindlessly spraying their way to victory while EMP'd with short barreled pistol caliber PDWs 200+ meters even tho you initiated and saw/hit them first with precise single shot hits from your full size battle rifle (7.62x51) is the way to go! Excellent and fun gameplay! Good balance and very authentic!
PDW > assault/battle rifles
mindless full-auto spray without burst control and aiming > aimed single rapid fire
Very good MP, even better than CoD! Very good...
jk
The MP utterly disgusting dog sh!t...

I find the game somewhat biased I mean I live in the uk and since I have played this game I have been chucked in rooms full of Americas. I have not been able to play with any of my fellow uk residents or my neighboring Europeans plus I have always been chucked in with players that higher levels and I mean that they are like 10 sometimes 20 levels and I'll be only like a lvl3 what's with that. It's Probally the worst multiplayer experience I have ever had with the ghost recon series. Please fix it ubisoft

There is no unbalanced teams, you jusr are too unlucky have bad players on your team.
2. Crappy Servers/ lag issues.- Constantly getting dropped from games. Constantly getting killed behind cover. Yet kill cam says my body was exposed around the corne?.No it wasn't I was in the center so how could I possibly be shot around the corner? Also how did I get killed when its clear from kill cam none of his bullets hit me.Whats best is when the Kill cam gives me clear evidence that I shot a guy about 4-5 times before even gets a round off and yet still kills me with one round
There is no servers in whole game it's the host (Normal payer like you) that have bad internet connection and that makes game mostlly laggy.
3. Limited weapon choices. Not much to choose from. Also LMGS? M-60, RPK? These suppressive fire weapons don't exactly seem to fit the the theme of the game.
This is not CoD or BF where you have like 30-40 weapons choose from.
I like it have few of them because of weapon balance if there is like 50-100 weapons in game that just cause some weapons be unbalanced then other weapons.
4- Sensor balls. One of the main reasons multiplayer is terrible. The biggest crutch in the game. Its so great being spotted through walls. Especially when my team isn't doing crap. Nothing takes the joy out of a game more than given a team X-ray vision. The sad part is they are such a crutch that they will be spammed and abused.
Don't camp and move whole time that the game idea.
5. Snipers camping prone in corners with camo on
They are really easy to kill and i haven't any trouble with them.
6. Game modes suck- Enough said here I thought they could designed better game modes. Siege was good. Conflict is alright.
Like what game mode you want, if you want TDM or DM go play a **** CoD.
Conglict is really good when have team that really work as team.
sabotage game mode is the best because if you want win you really need work as team.

Will be too late by than though.
When will devs and gaming companies actually start to realize this. There is a reason why COD and Halo are ahead of the rest of the FPS. Their games do not lag, or actually have a local region search function straight away. If they don't they fix it asap as they know that the average gamer will not sit back and wait a full 2 months before something is done about it as they will just move on to the next game.
Just think about all the potential customers already lost to Ubi and the GRFS crowd because of it. How many of them will come back after being left with a sour taste in their mouth (especially as they cannot get a full refund because of the stupid online pass) What is funny is that all the dev and gaming companies are after now days is money and the online pass is just example of it.
If they were worried about the gaming experience than they would of have most of the multiplayer component of the game sorted before the game was released to the open market, they would already now of lag issues between the countries of the world and have already incorporated a local search function in multiplayer already, The gaming would be balanced between to the two sides as well as in the weapons. The list can go on and on.
But no Ubi are still stuck in the dark ages of gaming where the gaming world only revolves around America only and no where else. I for one wish I could get back my money for what is essentially a broken , non- finished game but nooo Ubi have decided they are afraid of the average gamer dictate the terms of the gaming market by not allowing players to get a refund through returning the game as they have used the online pass.
Good luck in catching up with Cod and Halo.

Simple answer is, if you don't like it don't play it.
Fair enough if people feel the need to post constructive criticism and point out how they'd improve it but just posting to moan at the game is nonsense. Who care's? You can bad mouth UBI all you like but they have plenty of other people that enjoy the game. So why would they care what you think?

Thats why people dont post constructive crit, UBI couldnt give a flying ****. So next time you wonder why people spam the forums with hate just think of your own answer.

99% of the complainant thread OPs have never played on a squad, I guarantee you that. Not saying this game is perfect, it has issues just like every other game ever created, but if people took the time to play it the right way instead of lone wolfing,getting destroyed, and jumping on the forums to p!ss and moan, I think there would be a lot less "Worst game ever" threads.

Yes every game has issues...difference here is they had almost five years to develop this title as opposed to other titles that have one year or two tops...and the over all quality is no better, and in some areas even worse...that being said...yes I will piss and moan, and justifiably so.
