It's the Key Glitch all over again! I am a little surprised to see this much lag for you. I haven't had any issues in my games. Guess X1 is the true master race, graphical fidelity aside.  |

Had also a few problems in my 5 hours on mp so far. They are all in the clip op posted. Hope they'll fix this one day.

I think I'll go back to ME3MP for a while... :poker:
Thank you for sharing the video.

That was my worst game by far. There's one upside though: no matter how much lag you have, charge works well and will teleport you directly next to your target. That makes it a more reliable form of movement than the jetpack. |

If you're on the fence about buying it day 1 I'd wait. Wait until the first dlc. Otherwise you get to put up with the worst bugs.

Played about 5 or 6 silver games today with friends with exactly none of these issues. As always, pugging in a bioware MP is a bad idea and this video is a great example of that.

Remember our first attempts though? And as a matter of fact, I wasn't able to mute our fourth guy's mic while in-game. Had to do it back in the lobby. |

First DLC is probably already finished from cut content they set aside, so better to wait until the second DLC to see if they can fix anything. |

I'm beginning to suspect they weren't quite ready for the beta  How common is this? Were you playing with hosts on the same continent? For me, the lag was very common. So was not being able to mute players, the sound dropping, and objectives that would randomly stop interacting (keyboard & mouse). It seemed like it was 1/3 of all of my games. I even lagged hosting my own tutorial mission haha. |

I had been doing the same thing for the past 1.5 months. And now I'm seeing people describe stuff that I really figured would no longer be an issue at launch and just kinda...  Looking at the state of things right now, I'm glad I wasn't involved in any of the pre-release testing. I'd be pissed. |

So I've got 25 minutes left on the Early Access, why don't I fire it up, record a match, and maybe something awesome, stupid, or awesomely stupid will happen.
Luck was with me, I pugged into a Wave 3 GiP and it just threw stuff right at me:

That device activation issue looks like some solid torture. I wonder how escorts will be in this MP?

You know, more team-oriented and all. Get rid of the easy solo objectives. I could swear they said escorts would be part of it. They do require more people to run them kind of like hacks. But deliveries, if they want us to be more team focused that could work against it. Plus, given what I have seen thus far, with the chaotic nature and dogs humping my damn leg, I think deliveries would be a PITA. The jetpact also seems like it would change that entirely. Jet pacts provide essential kinds of evasion - needed now more than in ME3 I feel - and the deliveries were all about being as slow as death of you would drop it. So they might not be a part of this unless they change the design or rules of them. |

Multi hack is essentially the hack only now it moves from location to location. So you hack at one spot, it completes there (a portion of it) and then you move to another place. I think there are at least two hacks spots. I can't remember if there were more because things got chaotic. It's good in some ways bad in others. |

I think there are at least two hacks spots. I can't remember if there were more because things got chaotic. It's good in some ways bad in others. There are three simultaneous hacking spots to choose from. The team can all go to one spot, complete, then move on to the next. Or the team can split up and try to hack all three spots simultaneously. The more people in a particular spot, the faster it goes. But all three spots have to be completed for mission to be successful. I imagine this design change was made for gold/platinum as it can sometimes become hard to hold one spot, especially if soloing. This way, you can hold one spot for awhile, then move to another. etc. |

Sounds like the issues of ME3MP at launch. Who would of thought! A Q&A team can't be good as tens of thousands of people stressing your game! Also P2P is the worst way to host games ever. Hopefully there's a ping limiter on matches (and for it to be adjustable). Agreed, I was so disappointed to hear that MEA has p2p connections instead of dedicated servers. Not that I am all surprised that EA went chEAp, because it's EA after all but still. Just played a couple ME3 gold pugs and wow. Failed wave 6 geth/gold/jade with god awful lag, went into another match, played a wave, then had the host lag out and got the wfop black screen of death. I put 1800 hours into ME3MP and it was a ton of fun no doubt, but the latency is so frustrating and I really don't know if I want to put another 1800 into MEA if it's the same BS all over again. You'd think that with 5 years in between games, even with p2p, that there would be some kind of netcode improvement. Here's hoping I guess. |

Dedicated servers for a coopgame like MEAMP? Makes 0 fucking sense. Period. Who is going to pay for the servers? Will there be enough servers for all? What if there aren´t any at all down the road? P2P solves all these questions. The only thing needed is a: better netcode and b: the ability to see your latency in the lobby.

The only thing needed is a: better netcode and b: the ability to see your latency in the lobby. Dedicated servers make perfect sense for a coop game cause you have less lag overall and aren't dependent on the connection of the host. EA of course. Just like Activision is paying for CoD servers, Blizz for the Overwatch servers and EA for the Battlefield servers. If they can integrate microtransactions into a 60$ game, they can pay for MP servers. Don't be ridiculous. Then the game is no longer active. Can be easily solved by outsourcing the server hosting at the end of the lifespan to one of the third-party providers. Means someone has to pay for it, though, so it'd be a community effort. The netcode seems fine so far. No matter how bad the lag, powers like Charge still work properly. I do agree on the b - seeing your latency to the host. But even more important would be better matchmaking. Put penalties on hosts with bad connections so their lobbies don't fill up and allow players to chose between accepting mediocre connections or waiting longer for a game. They probably already favor hosts closer to the player so we have to wait how that turns out once the playerbase is large enough. |
