Subject: Weird Lag Problem?

I was doing an Endure run with a few of my friends yesterday, and something odd happened: We were on the final wave, final round, final set. We had 31 lives left, when suddenly, the game began to lag after working fine before. Also, nobody was able to move for a bit, and then it when black screen and it said that a "player had ended the game". Why did it lag out like this? The same thing occurred early in the match, it began to freeze up like that, but the game didn't end. Can someone please explain to us what happened? We all have very good connection...

Unfortunately ODST does that from time to time. It happens when one user's connection to the host fluctuates for a couple of seconds (which happens from time to time). A couple of ways to avoid this are to go into theater mode and give party leader status to the player with the best connection, and make sure no one else in your place of residence is using the Internet when going for Endure.

A 4,3,5 lag-out is almost the worst thing that can happen on a run that would have otherwise succeeded. Unfortunately you'll have to try for it again. Good luck!

I see. Thanks, Arbiter :-).

I'll make sure to give host to the person with best connection, because we made sure everyone had all the computers/other stuff that are connected to interwebs off... when I attempt the achievement for the 5th time... X_X

Thanks,
