Lagging

[Qrtrbck12]

Im thinking about getting xbl and i want to know if there is any lagging

that depends on the connection speed of players on a multiplayergame. Often live can lag due to the fact that people have many apparatus connected to their router and that slows down the connection. Lagging is occasional but at the end of the day it happens so rarely that it's hardly a nuisance that should repel you from purchasing some sweet live time

Eh, well that depends really. I don't experiance much lag these days on Live, but that depends on the host.

Sometimes the games determine the lag too. An example is playing Far Cry with only 4 other people in the room and it lagging 10 times worse than playing Battlefield 2 or GRAW with 20 people in the room.

alot of lag in ubisoft games is attributed to reall bad netcode written by the guys at ubisoft. or people over hosting on their connection.

Yes their is a little lag depending on the connection and whos host. Just try to avoid playing with someone that lives on another continent as you. But I highly recommend Xbox Live because it just makes games so much more enjoyable. I would get it because it's well worth the 50 dollars but you can also make a free 1 month of xbox live gold to try it out and see how you like it.

Yeah, use your 1 month trial, see how you like it.

The worst game I saw lagging was DOA4, and from what I have heard, it's been fixed for the most part. All other issues is with people sharing a connection improperly, or having a slow connection, and even that's rare now.

You have to get XBL dude! Its just plain freakin' fun! Killing or dominating different people with different strategies and..........Madden on XBL! Well, it does matter if the host, like ScotRacer, we were playing a Cod2 with Crusader555 in Toujane and he had a 200-300 ping but I had a lower one cause I live in Florida like Crusader.

It depends on what kind of connection you have and how many people are playing. Also you must consider that if the host of the match has a crap connection you will experience some lag due to the fact that he has a bad connection, although yours is good.
