Subject: Server issues on ODST and Halo 3

Hi has anyone else experienced issues when playing online? me and a friend played last night and the lag was insane. It felt like I was watching an online vid with 28Kb connection!

ODST has always had it's lag issues, I've done over 200 Deja Vu runs but last night's did seem a bit heavier than usual. The run took 37 mins, we're normally done in 30mins.

I'm watching you.

I have never had bad connection issues with ODST and I've player with people across the world. I'm guessing it's your connection causing this.

hmmm problem is its both halo 3 and ODST, i tried campaign again last night and the lag made it impossible to play. Could it be a server issue as both me and my mate havent had issues like this before.

Halo only uses servers for Matching opponents and data collection. Gameplay is totally peer to peer. Lag usually rears its' ugly head in co-op campaign of any sort. Synchronizing 20 grunts is a lot harder than 8 people apparently. There's not much you can do other than finding someone else to host the session for you.
