I thought people stopped beating up on dead horses in Middle School. Apparently not.

Get a better connection. There is no way you have "connection issues" almost very game unless yours sucks.

Boom.


Ok Burchie which would make sense except I run on a 28 dl and a 5ul. And the connection still sucks for me. If they have a bad connection they will still lag and eat bullets because their connection is slow when it comes to sending packets and receieving packets of information.


Well I just don't understand it then. I do not pull host that often outside of customs on my good connection (or the other for that matter) which is only ~11 down and 1 up and like I said, the host is noticeably bad very rarely. I guess I'm just that lucky?

That being said I just can't help to believe that you guys over exaggerate about connection. It's XBL, you can't have a LAN type connection. People are going to eat shots...And I know I've had my fair share of complaints about the game, but posting them here over and over and over again isn't going to do anything about it. Not to mention, it gets annoying fast.

Being from the UK I can understand the OP's frustration. I rarely pull host and I've played against Japs(immortal on their host), Mexicans and Australians(so much lag), Americans(a little bit harder to kill), European countries(seem to gain a ridiculous advantage).

Reach's netcode system is terrible. Trying to play on a foreign host is so unfair. The amount of shots some players eat is unreal. They should have used dedicated servers (I know it's not LAN but it's FAR better). There would be minimal connection issues(unless it's on your end) and a lot less of a connection advantage. The hit detection would be a lot better as well. Even though Reach has Hitscan it seems to make -blam!- all difference.

It pisses me off when I out DMR someone, drop their shields and then they eat 4 headshots and kill me. It is quite rare yes, but when it happens it's -blam!- annoying and so stupid. It's also annoying getting a bloodshot on someone with the sniper when they have low/no shield. Also sniping someone in the head and it either registering only to drop their shields or do no damage at all.

Halo 4 better have an insanely good networking system or use dedicated servers otherwise it's just going to be another game of whoever has host will be fine while everyone else (apart from anyone who's in the same country as the host) suffers.

I think Australia made how to hit people out part of their education system. you cant pass kindergarten without knowing how.

I know right. But, its understandable I guess.

Here's what happens when they don't hit. Our teammate quit out (he wasn't booted) in the pregame lobby and we won 3v4 against two Aussies, a Jap, and a New Zealander. I've been told that both the Aussies in this game have played with booters before. Makes sense since they lost while we were a man down and they were twos tricking.

The host selection in this game is ridiculous. For example, you can have everyone in the game be from the U.S. except for someone from let's say Taiwan, and it will give the Taiwan kid host. Yellow and red bar commences for the majority of the game until maybe 5 kills are left and then it will finally switch host.

If you're going to get stuck on a mexican connection so much, why not play Halo 3 instead?

It's one of those rare occasions when I end up at a computer I haven't been on in months at work. I opened chrome, the stored book marks came up, and this thread caught my eye.

I quit taking Reach seriously months ago. Now it's only good for derpy customs.

PS : Halo may as well be dead anyway. I'm just stopping by to piss on the corpse. Later.

Bungie you're so damn retarded.

Get use to ,its the same in H4.

They make me laugh with network codes hit scan,best way to save money so they dont buy dedicated servers.
