Hi,
I bet that most of Halo3 player have seen how bad and annoying the lag can be, and how not fair it can be. Bungie, please resolve this issue! Call of Duty player will not see any lag in the game. In fact there are times where it seems like the network lag in Halo 3 sides with some players, where some player get easy kills and it's hard for others to get any kill. The network lag problem is not fair; I am very disappointed and annoyed with this problem. I recently started quitting the games that not playable or not fair because of the network lag. It's good that I can see the red and orange network health indicator, but it doesn't seem that the game software does anything to fix this issue. I have seen this problem since I started playing Halo 2 online and it's still exist with Halo3 and most likely will still be there when Halo reach come out! I believe that Bungie should look into the lag problem and fix it, don't you think?

I really hope Reach does fix this problem cause (for me at least) once I play with people, playing alone starts to get boring.

Wrong forum - dont care myself, but you may have got more replies over in the main list (odst is very quiet).

The mm system on MW2 also allows players of all ranks to play in a single game ... so more chance of getting a 'local' player. MW2 also has bigger online gamer numbers, play a better ping based matching system.

Odds are stacked against getting a non-lag based game on H3.
These days you have to encourage host to go your way to get a decent game.
