Of course, only I have to wait an extra month.
 
Nope, Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition coming out soon and some DLC for MAHVEL vs Capcom 3.
 
I really like gun game. Almost more than regular multiplayer. I can win most of the time and when I don't win I'm in the money 95% of the time. I had one game tonight though where this one guy kept running around knifing everyone. I finally won the game with a whole 35 kills. What a douche.
 
Personally I don't find myself wanting more maps, I think it depends how much you play to define whether or not people feel the need to purchase maps. I'm still having more than enough fun because I only play once a week or so due to the shorter amount of spare time I have and of course GT5.
 
I really think I should start playing this regularly again, Seeing as I haven't been playing online much since mid-December (Guess why). I did have a couple of good TDM's today, so I guess i'll try and play it more often.

SSIV Arcade Edition?? Oh noes! Whats the difference between that and SSIV?

MvsC3 is already paid for on my end. I still play the 2nd one on Dreamcast :)


And I will be getting the new maps on the first :)

in SSFIV:AE. Yang and Yun are returning from 3S..maybe R.Mika. There is Oni Akuma and Evil Ryu that are playable. Alot of things got nerfed and some got buffed.
 
Thanks for the heads up. :)

Ken can s.lp into cr.hk :sly: If it's a whole new game I will be MAD :grumpy: You have time for MVC3, SSFIV:AE and BO ... get the map pack!!! :lol:

For the maps ... I might get them but I'm not really sure. I'm still trying to convince my friend to get BO.

I skipped out on the MW2 map packs since they didn't look too good, I was too cheap and I was able to wait until BO's release which I'm glad I did.
 
Those map packs were the main reason that turd of a game could be played until BO came out and even then it was iffy. I'm hoping they release as many map packs for BO as they did mw2. I think this game would be playable for a long time to come.

Evo is coming and I need to brush up. Balrog has his ultra 2 changed so I can do alot with that.
 
Getting onto this game for the first time in ages has just made me even more sure that I am not coming back.

I have been on 30 mins and haven't gotten a kill. Join game, disconnect host, join game, spray frozen noob, disconnect, ps3 - freeze, freeze, disconnect, join game in the last round of SnD and then lose and not play at all. That SnD game had 4 bars before it went to lobby and now has two bars in the next game, WTF!

I hope they take these servers off like they are thinking of doing, savesm e the trouble of bothering with it.
 
I don't have those problems. I might get a bad game once or twice but I usually don't have trouble finding a game.
 
There has never, ever,ever,ever,ever been a session on this game where I have not frozen, where I have not disconnected and where I have actually had fun playing it.

After learning about lag and all the sorts of rage that goes with it in all the other CoD's I just pop this game on, sense I am going to get incredibly pissed off and just turn it off at around 75% rage level. Each time I have picked it up I haven't played more than three games, actually, I find around three games and all of them fail so I give up and rant on here.
 
Must be your location. I'll get some lag sometimes and I've had a few small issues but MW2 was much worse for me.

Also patch 1.06 is now out on the PS3. I just had to download it a minute ago. Its 39mb. Here is what all it has addressed.

New Features:
* • New contracts added to the rotation.
* • Added optional pre-match timer for LAN / System-Link games.

Issues Addressed:
* • Fixed freeze associated with larger games.
* • Improved reliability of players connections to one another.
* • Improved ability to bring parties to the game lobby. Late party joiners would try to connect to previous lobby host and be denied if new joiners trigger a lobby host migration.
* • Addressed an issue where the Host encounters and infinite spinning loading circle after a Host migration.
* • Fixed a timing specific, long/infinite loading screen when joining games (sometimes giving you “Error - Read error (0x80010713) on file <map name>").
* • Fixed a timing-specific freeze when host powered down during host migration.
* • Cleaned up the map search filter in the Community section (deleted unused entries).
* • Fixed Combat Training’s "USE FRIENDS" option for bots names.
* • Fixed issue with split-screen guest profile names being blank, resulting in matches never launching.
* • Instead of showing the generic “Player” for offline profiles in LAN, we now display the PS3 profile name.
* • Fixed Friends list appearing after viewing a Friends Playercard from the Leaderboards.
* • Fixed filter so players can now view Friends on Zombies leadboards.
* • Fix timing specific issue where the game can be put into slow motion.
* • Addressed "disconnected path" error when using the doors in Radiation after a host migration.
* • Fixed stability issues navigating lobbies after client on Split Screen Zombies quits out of a game.
* • Addressed issue/exploit when removing Counter Spy Plane effects with the Jammer.
* • Fixed a freeze when quickly loading maps one after another in private match.
* • Fixed issue where players get primary weapons in Second Chance.
* • Fixed “NEW” stamp not disappearing for Custom Slot 9 when highlighting the slot.
* • Removed water vision effect when respawning after dying in the acid pool in Radiation.
* • Several contract fixes.

Gameplay Tuning:
* • Second Chance – players that put an enemy into Second Chance are now credited for a full kill once that enemy dies. If another player kills the enemy while the enemy is in Second Chance, they will get assist credit.
* • Adjustments to the PSG1 with attachments.
* • AK74U adjustments.
* • RCXD adjustments.
* • Silenced sniper rifle adjustments.
* • Removed hit markers when shooting friendly equipment

lol @ you

Fix your internet before blaming the game
 
The recenter speed for AK74 with grip as been adjusted. Basically they have given it slightly more recoil. I haven't played online yet this morning but AK74/grip is pretty much my go to gun so I hope it hasn't been effected to bad.

Excuse me Anes? Might want to take a look at why you got banned earlier and avoid outright 'in your face' comments like that.

Laugh at me all you like buddy, does what I said mean its all of a sudden my fault and my internets fault? No. This game is not designed for PS3, it runs like crap on PS3, we all know that. The menus are sloppier than a melting icecream, the way it interacts with the PS3's OS is slow (receiving invites etc). The servers are terrible at finding local games/ keeping them local (host migration to another country). The company probably makes BILLIONS and they do not buy decent dedicated servers, instead they rely on the very unreliable Peer to Peer system.

That is where it is the most fail, Peer to Peer gets mucked about so much with it choosing dodgy connections, different countries and just the fact people have lives and need to leave at the inconvenience of others. My internet is fine, Nat 1 connection to every call of duty and even in the network settings. It has performed sufficiently for every online game and everything I have done on the internet since I moved to this house so I would not be blaming it on the internet when you know nothing about my internet.

Sure, I live in Australia and we have slow internet but by no means is it poor quality or poorly setup. I'll tell you right now, I am sitting on the average Australian connection of 1.X MB, it may seem slow to you but it is definately good enough for online gaming.

My internet is not the problem, don't be so one minded about something and just assume. Also, try not to be all like, 'do this because I am right and you aren't', which is what you sounded like telling me to 'fix' my perfectly fine internet.
 
I disagree. Really I could only read about half your rant but something about 1mbs being fine for online is just silly. I had 1.5mbs DSL before switching to my 20mbs cable and the difference is night and day. A lot of your issues seem to be due to that right there. At least the way you explain it it seems that way. I don't have issues anywhere near as bad as you are saying.

Do you get wrapped in bubble wrap before you go outside? Serious question.

I live in Australia, my internet was 0.8up but I play bops with no dramas at any time. I DMZ'd my ps3 before I blamed the game. It's your fault you can't connect to any p2p hosts. Why would it be the games fault :dopey:


Also, D- on the rant. I didn't get even halfway through.





Oh wait found this

The servers are terrible at finding local games/ keeping them local (host migration to another country)


Hurr the games terrible. I haven't set my search preference to local only yet all it does is find distant hosts.

I've played with maybe 10 Americans since release.



I do know what I'm talking about btw

It is about time that Treyarch did this. There was nothing more annoying that "killing" an opponent, only to not have the kill count.
 
More like its about time call of duty in general did this. Its been the other way forever.

Anes, you are quite a waste of my time. Look at the first sentence I have quoted. YOU CANNOT CONTINUE AN ARGUMENT without reading the full reply. That is just stupid mate...did you never go to school and learn about it?

All I am going to say, to you and to TA is that 1.x MBs connection is fine as long as noone is using the internet for heavy tasks such as youtube/ torrents etc. If I get 75%+ bandwidth to my PS3 I am fine and have been for the last 3 years. As I said, this is the only game which I have problems with, therefore I can safely rule out my internet. Shall I list the games that are fine for you? No, because all of them bar Black Ops are.

Oh, and because apparently posting gameplay videos makes you epic and wins an argument, shall post video hurr durr.
 
I heard that update 1.06 hit today for PS3 and it fixed all of the lag and frame rate issues, and it now runs as smooth as it does on the breakbox. Have you downloaded the patch and tried any games yet Legendary?
 
Has it been confirmed for the 360?

We don't need a patch, ours runs fine already:) The patch was just to fix issues the PS3 was having.
 
To think that the spawn points need to be moved on some maps...
