Far Cry 3 multiplayer - Xmas Lag - Mike5GSR 29-8 anti-MVP on Homestead
6Far Cry 3 multiplayer on PS3
Mike5GSR vs. Xmas laggers, goes 29-8 TDM on Homestead for anti-MVP
Stayed tuned for my end of match humiliation at 13:29
Fucking shit, this was one of two decent matches I could muster on Xmas day.
Extra laggy all morning...even reset my router and cable modem in case it was me.
Apparently Santa didn't bring anyone high-speed internet.
I stayed in this match because at least no one was teleporting.
Player ch-dog4 was the worst offender...guy is delayed.
I actually have to switch back to the AK47 for increased damage to fight his lag.
Game is still better than BlOps2.

Multiplayer still has issues:
The patch has improved matchmaking but I'm consistently in matches with really laggy players.
I've messaged laggy players after matches and found out they all live on east coast states.
I live in AZ so matchmaking isn't matching within 1,000 miles...FAIL!
There will be significant delays for some enemy deaths to register.
This turns out to be a severe disadvantage if you're using a low damage weapon because it lets an enemy kill you before all your hits register on them.
A lot of the killcams end up being replays of an action that happened over a second earlier.
Don't play Firestorm, the spawns are horrible...always in harm's way.
Other minor gripes at the time of this recording:
I don't like how picking up an enemy's weapon will only have the same number of rounds as your current weapon.
There doesn't seem to be a way to keep streaking because of lack of ammo.
Fallen weapons don't persist and only have 10 rounds if picked up when you're empty.
Using Select to mark enemies doesn't give me any Team Skill points or XP.
Doesn't register as an assist either.
I have yet to be able to hear anyone with a mic speak.
