Xbox SP:PT Multiplay issues - help required | Forums

[CGA-FourSure]

I seem to be experiencing a random issue when loading a multiplayer game: even though I've chosen a side, in the lobby, and indicated that I am ready, when the game loads and starts I end up in spectator mode. When the host returns to the lobby I appear to be on the opposite team for some reason. I've repeated the process numerous times and rebooted my xbox and returned to the same hosted game only to have it happen again. I don't touch any buttons during the game start loading process, so I don't understand why this is happening?

Would auto-team balance cause this on a hosted game, maybe? I'm still only lvl 1 (too many lame souls quit or close down their hosted game if they're gonna lose, so I haven't progressed very far in the rankings).

Another issue is that I often have to exit my XL account and re-enter after failing to join a closed or full game in optimatch. The failure seems to screw up my connection/link as the background music stops and any attempts to search in optimatch results in one bar results, e.g I'll get a list of games with pings that are one bar in green, yellow or orange. This obviously makes no sense, as a good connection is 4 green bars, then 3 yellow and 2 orange.

Does my game CD need replacing? Is this a known multiplayer issue? Is there an XL update that I'm missing, please?

All help appreciated.

Cheers,
