I'm there but, man this is really starting to sound like communism.
Long live the MAW.

the netcode is horrible, but you need to "lead" your shots to be able to hit someone. how much to lead depends on your internet connection, and somewise your computer.

Ok, i would suggest cable if its available in your area. I have the optimum triple play thingy and its awesome. I would definately suggest it. Just dont go with DSL, IMO, its overrated. Hope i helped.

I think he is talking about halo 2, hence "my connection is always in the red" and "i shoot someone in the head and i got assassinated". You can only get "assassinated" in halo 2.

I have a suggestion for XBL users to get better performance.

1-Give the XBox its own IP address
2-DMZ that address
3-For extra measure, forward port 3074
4-If on a 360, run a test and see if your NAT setting is "Open" or "Moderate". If it says "Strict", you may have done something wrong, or your internet sucks.

1. thats fine
2. thats ok
3. useless since you put that IP in the DMZ
4. If it is in the DMZ it should be open, hell if just forwarded the ports it should be open.
