I've played the game with both of you before, and it lags tremendously. Beliebe me, if that wasn't the case I'd definitely have you both onboard. I don't remember trying campaign with Matclan, and I'd be willing to do a test run just to see, but can't promising anything. With Dark, the lag was terrible. However, I don't seem to experience much lag with Gazas. Perhaps consult with him and uncover the type of connection he has and the surrounding environment?If it helps, there's nothging but plain grass and some cows in Sweden while England has like a million buildings everywhere. =)
Well I live in the countryside. So there's a distinct lack of high rise buildings. :-P
As for Internet connection; Gazas is in Sweden and that should be a case of "'nuff said."
Strangely when I tried to host the game when trying Twin-Mythic we kept getting disconnected, yet when Gazas hosts everything was fine. Did you and Dark both try hosting the games, Tyrant?
Also if you want me to be available for a test run I'll need a pretty precise time and date otherwise I doubt I'd be able to just turn up. Arrangements would have to be made with my brothers etc.
Try checking out the NAT thread stickied to the side. Clearly if we can have a good connection with Gazas, we can with you as well. Check your network settings, make sure your Xbox is the only thing connected and you aren't running AIM, other instant messengers, or aren't downloading anything anywhere on your network.
As for the host thing, our options are pretty limited there since there isn't really a way to force host that I know of... or at least legally. Dark always pulled host for some reason. We tried to resolve it by restarting Xboxes, rejoining, etc, but... well... you get the idea.
Yeah try that out. Plus, try to update your ethernet cords to CAT6 if you haven't already. Also, try to keep up tabs with your internet provider, and see if they have new modems available. You may be paying for something more than what you're getting. I myself have about a 17 mbps download, 5.5mbps upload, and about 18ms latency. But by just doing that and port forwarding, I feel I can host very well. When I played with Gazas and MATCLAN, I didn't really notice too much connection issues.
However, I find it hillarious when Tyrant and I get disconnected when we live 30 minutes from eachother... lol funny stuff...
