shrinker Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Okay I don't want to be negative, I'm just really interested in this. Last saturday I spent six hours on Battlefront. During that time I didn't get to play a single complete round of the game thanks to network problems. So, how many full, consecutive rounds do you usually get to play online before you get a crash, a lost connection, or a time-out? I'm only talking about full rounds where you join just as the round is starting and play right up to the victory/defeat. For me the answer is rarely more than 1. How about others?

hatelull Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 i usually get 1-2 games. Strikeserves.com is weird. I can play sometimes 4 - 5 games in a row on some days. Other times I get through one map and it will just count down indefinitely on the "server is busy" screen. I escape out and refresh the server from the in-game browser and see that it's 16/32. Go back in, but nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoQ Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 There have been a few times when I got more than three rounds in before i crash. But that is the exception. The norm for me is about 3 before I crash. Man, how pathetic is it to have to have a poll like this. It really states how buggy the pc version of this game actually is!Pandemic/Lucasarts this should really be a wake up call for you regarding releasing games before they are ready.

Iceman_IX Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Once I was on for ~8 rounds before I crashed. Crashed meaning lost connection. The game almost NEVER crashes for me. Very rare. But 1-3 games is the usual amount before I have to find another server. Very annoying and the primary reason why I hardly play anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pho3nix Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Yea, i really hate it when u join a game, and then it takes about 40secs and nothing happends, then it just goes back 2 the multiplayer window again. Also when u join a game and it says "waiting for players" and then it says "connection to host lost"...really sux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil Dark Jedi Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Can we put how many SP games we have? Cause I have it on Xbox and dont have Xbox Live. So I will. I normally get 1-3 games and sometimes more than three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrinker Posted October 8, 2004 Author Share Posted October 8, 2004 I was thinking about online games really. There are less things that can go wrong with SP games so we can assume that the results would be a lot better. I'll edit my original post to make that more clear.

shrinker Posted October 8, 2004 Author Share Posted October 8, 2004 I know it's only early but I'm amazed at the results. This can't be accurate - need more votes! (Thanks to those that voted already) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amazian Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 I play about 8-10 games before I get a little tired of playing. There's a few factors like - map settings, how many human players there are, map rotation and if the server doesn't crash or not. Usually play for about an hour, hour and a half. I'd probably play more if they made larger maps, especially ones that I could dogfight on. Any map that has an x-wing or tie, I'll always be in the air (even on tatooine). One thing I watch out for is spawn campers. If there's a spawn camper on my team, and FF is on, i'll blow them up. I don't like playing 5 minute games because someone thinks it's funny to sit in a spawn area with an at-st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
