Guidlines for Hosting??? Number of Players? | Forums

[Robert013]

I'm really really not sure weither or not I should get, or atleast considder getting this game at some point, or forget about? I like tactical shooters, and well I plan on getting Gears of War and Call of Duty 3 some time soon wich are both tactical shooters like this game is.

Anyways yeah if there is any thing that is gonna get me sold on this game it will have to be the multiplayer. I hardly know any thing about it though...

So could some one pretty please just list each gamemode there is and exactly what you do in them like what the objective is for that specific gamemode?

Thnx.

lol.
call of duty 3 isn't a tactical shooter at all. in fact it sucks i sold it to gamestop to get some money to pay for vegas. and gears of war is only tactical in the sense that teamwork is required for the most part if you're going up against a group that works as a team...cover isn't necessary like so many people say.

anyway to answer your question just read reviews or download the MULTIPLAYER demo off of marketplace.

My upload speed is 720kbps (90 KB/sec transfer rate) So how many should I host? I always thought you should have about 50kbps per person in the room. 12 should be fine. After I have a room open for awhile (couple of hours??) I always start hearing "this room is so laggy". Usualy from one person. How can you read the dots in the lobby to know if it's my connection or someone else? I just wish game designers would put this in the book like a graph. If you have this connection...you should start here with this many players. Somebody out there knows.

Usually this lag comes when you are hosting and playing on the same machine.<div class="ev_tpc_signature">

You have plenty of speed to host a full room, people usually complain of lag because they're getting owned. 3 green dots is a good connection so if the person has that they shouldn't be complaining of lag.

Yeah that reply didn't help me at all. And you don't know what you're talking about. CoD games are tactical shooters ya *******.

Now could I get some one to actually READ the entire original post and actually HELP me out here?

What Multiplayer are you looking for? I have the ones that you list through purchase and rental, and all of them have thier pros and cons. Hell, even add Halo 2 to the mix, it all depends on how you play multiplayer.

Local Friends?
Remote Friends?
Spend hours a day playing the game?

What if I have 3 green dots and they have 2 yellow? Is it me or them? I mean, if I was the only one I would say it's me but...if there are others in the room with the same connection as me my connection should be fine, right?
