Multiplayer Technical and Bug Feedback ~ Structured feedback

its lag, i logged off went for my dinner came back and the rewards were there just takes time.

Having a problem getting into a match. I can play single player ok. I can play the multiplayer tutorial ok. When I go to a lobby and ready up I get a black screen with the loading circle after the 5 second countdown. The sound also cuts out when entering a lobby which doesn't happen in the tutorial lobby.
Tried the usual things of disabling firewall, anti-virus. Anyone else getting this?

I get this meme when trying to join someone who wasted money.

Fortunately for me yes, whether being a host or not.

I'm really surprised there's nowhere to be seen any comments on mouse smoothness that simply doesn't seem to be turned off even when doing so in the menus. Am I the only one having this issue or people are just not concerned about it?

well the only issue I have noticed is off host, when your hosting there doesn't seem to be one which would indicate that just like me3mp meamp has a lot of bandwidth related issues.

although I thought the reason why I kept getting insta gibbed by the teleporting ascendant was down to a funky connection then I hosted and he does the same thing .....

are you wired or wifi connection ?

have you tried restarting your router ?

I know its a possibly dumb question but what internet speeds do you have ?

and finally what other crap is running on your connection?

for instance I have 5 other internet users in my house each of them has at least 2 devices possibly up to 4 running at any one time (fucking kids) and every single one of them seems to think that streaming 2 movies whilst skyping their gf/bf and running a couple of games is the way ahead + using the xbox .....

anyhow it's the wifi that screws things up, since it steals 50% of the bandwidth from the wired stuff and everyone is wired on the things they stream/game with so I had to change the sharing feature to only permit 20% of available bandwidth to wifi and things improved massively except for when the missus is watching iptv....

but yeah the problem with the lobbies is just like I used to have before I got my 80/20 connection, now it tends not to be such a problem /


and since your on xbox do you use an external drive or install everything on the built in one ?  I had problems in many games with the freezing thing before I got an external drive, although I don't yet have Andromeda on the xbox but its just another possible option /

yeah that's what halo was like for me, moved it to the external drive and bingo half the problems disappeared.

its as if the xbone is the same as a normal pc when the internal drive fills up it goes screwy and it stutters a lot if its trying to predraw frames into the vmem on the hdd especially if its the same one its pulling the sprites textures and maps from....

I don't know what it is but that's always a big load on the system resources and multiple drives normally fixes it.

also I know what you mean about the long Ethernet wire but I found it fixes a lot of problems, for that reason I ran them throughout all 3 floors of my rental home although I drilled holes in walls /ceilings for most of it to avoid the trip hazards where we didn't have carpet to hide them under

I've gone through the thread. There is definitely a bug with trying to do the devices objective. You have to keep pressing E so you don't lose progress even if you're holding the button with all your might and nothing is interrupting you.

Anyone else getting weird menu overlay or lag? I'm not quite sure how to describe it. Sometimes I'll be in the main MP menu but it's showing some of the lobby UI or act like it's in the Strike Team menu.

I think the "Drack's Missing Scouts" Strike Mission is bugged. When in a game I often get DCed near the end or don't receive the reward. If I try to use a strike team it wont send out and then will DC from EA servers.
I know some cunts that I play with got the rewards and the mission went away from their list. But one of me mates and that bloke above me are having this issue metinks
