Hi everyone. If someone could tell me what's going wrong. I have my suspicions if someone could confirm.
Basically I have a 50MEG connection and 1.5 upload speed provided by Virgin. Now I used to host quite a bit in MM but recently playing with one guy in Dubs I never ever get host at all when I play with him and majority of the time he gets host!
He's fiddled around with his router settings but I'm sure that's not all he's done. I gave him my Internet IP address and he also knows my Xbox IP address. He told me how he opened up his ports or something like that on his router but since then when ever I play with him, my shots very rarely count, it can be a tiny bit laggy, my nades hardly do anything and sometimes when I sword lunge or melee it doesn't work at all.
It doesn't seem to effect him and the opposing team at all, plus for anyone else on our team it's even worse for them than it is for me (if we're in MLG or slayer).
Sometimes before we play he gets me to join or host customs, and gets me to join and leave after various times. These games are no warm ups as all we do is just sit there.
Like I said, I have a 50MEG connection and 1.5 upload speed provided by Virgin. Now I know he has an average connection like 10MEG or something like that but noway near as good as mine. His upload would be poor compared to mine too.
I know something is very wrong when I play with him. It's fine when I'm not with him and I host above average like normal. Ive been playing Halo since the beginning and like all veterans can tell when the game is not playing or behaving like it should do.
Now...I'm not crying cus I want host all the time or asking you guys how to host, I'm fine with my host record.
What I do want is someone to explain what is happening, ie Force Host etc
Thanks for reading this and would be a great help if someone gave me an explanation {",}
P.S. Sorry if this is in the wrong forum.
