what's the problem exactly, server overload?

or are they being hush about it?

does this game use dedicated servers or P2P hosting for matches?

It was explained better a page back but when the dedicated servers are failing they fall back to P2P hosting until the issues can be fixed.

They said its a bunch of stuff and once they fix it they will give a detailed description of what happened. The game does use dedicated severs and overload doesn't seem to be the problem. It's just some shyt they did wrong in the matchmaking code.

no fukkin clue....

when you search matchmaking...it can take a really long time....my nikka @Midwest told me he fell asleep while searching...woke up a couple hrs after....and was STILL searching :laff:

sometimes yo0u play on dedicated servers and sometimes its p2p depending on the server issues at the time...

when you find a match in a 5v5 playlist....you can get a 5v4, 7v3 or even a 1v9 on some retarded shyt. Also, if you're searching with ppl you...yall might end up on separate teams...because why not? fukk it...lol

and after a match is over, the game might crash right before you get back into the post-game menu or it will split the party up after a game and you will have to hope it lets the other ppl rejoin you or you gotta restart the game and invite ppl...

customs has its issues too...after matches teams will sometimes switch...fukkin retarded...and the process of changing teams is not as simple as it was back in the day by hitting one button...its a process now...a fukkin equation to changing team color...

i'm utterly disgusted with 343 and what they have done with this release....they can all eat a dikk till the game is running 100%

OH AND THESE MUTHAfukkAS RUINED HALO 1 WITH THAT shytTY ASS PC PORT INSTEAD OF USING THE ORIGINAL XBOX VERSION....fukk ALL OF EM

:wtf:

What's different bout it? Im sure the textures are better and poly's are higher

don't get caught up in pretty gfx

the pc version of the game has a really bad netcode...which is apparent in the mcc version...off host feels really bad and there is this ping noise you hear when shots are suppose to hit, but its not accurate...you can hear the noise and players aren't losing shields...its retarded. This also happens on host. Halo 1's shooting takes a lot of fukkin skill because of the leading and when the leading is off from different ranges and the netcode is poor....its very inconsistent...not good

Hang Em High...a map in the game is changed from the og box version...the pit in the middle has the outer lips removed so its dumb easy to walk in and out of it, so noobs can get away with ease if they go down there. The rockets and other items on the maps are rotated 90 degrees compared to the original version so nade tricks and other ways of acquiring them are different and no one is used to that shyt...

it's a good amount of stuff changed in the pc version that they used..there's a list floating around somewhere on the net...i'll post it if i find it

its fukkin annoying...

damn, BF4 had wild netcode issues for a while.

I think it had something to do with it's refresh rate with the server, or tick rate.

Basically how frequently it updates positional player information, shots fired, shots hit etc.

The slower this refresh rate the more chance of lag kills, or I shot first why'd I die type of shyt.

I think BF4 was like 100ms or something, meaning it refreshed on screen information between players and the host every 100ms.

I saw a video saying competitive shooters like CS:GO refresh at 10ms. So it is much closer to a 1:1 experience.

Makes me wonder what Halo's tick rate is.
