Whats with all the lag recently?

I bought the game on Saturday and Sunday and Monday were unlayable due to lag.
Have they given up on this game already?
If not whats the deal ?

What the hell are you doing playing this game?

Unless you're an impostor.

They haven't given up on the game, and a patch is coming out, but sadly, there's nothing about an option to prioritize connection when starting a game. (I'd gladly sit around and wait for 5 minutes to play people within a thousand miles of me rather than repeatedly be thrown into games with people from three or more continents)

We'll see how things go with the new patch, but yeah, at this point, the games biggest shortcoming is huge lag issues and matchmaking that repeatedly throws you games where lag is unavailable.

I been getting bad lag the last few days too. Hopefully the patch addresses it because most of the time its unplayable when its lagging its that bad. Just yesterday I grappled a sniper and all of a sudden he was on the ground shooting me with his uzi while my guy was stuck in grapple.

Lol no it be me.
Just got into this game Saturday and loved it but then Sunday and Monday were unplayable due to lag.
Wicked game though.
Wish I knew about it sooner.

Personally since I spend 95% of my time trying to find games that are playable when I DO get host I keep it for bloody ages, and my host will be terrible for 99% of the MNC players, since I am not in the US, nor remotely near any other large footprint 360 live countries.

Sorry, but since I am forced to do this.. you know, to play a game I payed more than anyone else in the world for (24 dollars for 1200 MSP) and get a worse experience 95% of the time... I find myself not actually caring.

I would suggest maybe everyone and their dog has now started doing this to actually get a decent game for themselves.

Why haven't I been hired by a game dev in a "This is how you impact the rest of the world with your net coding and game options" kind of role yet?

Woe.
