    I just wanted to start a discussion of this in the feeback forum, with hopes of getting some acknowledgement from the devs of the issue and thoughts about whether or not this is being addressed.

    The issue, of course, being the horrible frameloss that occurs when playing splitscreen and the other player respawns. This has made the game much, much less enjoyable for those of us who play splitscreen often.

    Please post here if you're experiencing this. I'd hate for the developers to think of it as a non-issue.

    Don't forget when the other player opens their skill menu, it causes the other person to stop shooting. I think it happens when they die, and respawn as well.

    This issue has existed for a while, its not new due to the DLC.

    But yes, there is significant frame rate loss when playing splitscreen and one person respawns. As a fix, I suggest that when one player dies, the other immediately jumps off the map, thus synchronizing respawns.

    I dont post often but here it goes. sorry for the CAPS but dang.
    Thats a joke right? Why would i kill myself EVER???? This shouldnt be in the game in the 1st place. Not only did we put up with the Skill menu or building Turrets causing the other to STOP SHOOTING. Now The frame rate drops when either of us spawn, another slap to the face to splitscreen players. I know a lot of ppl here say "PPL STILL PlAY SPLITSCREEN?? OMGZ?!?" but all i see is ppl saying OH SNIPER IS OP or JUICE RUINS THE GAME!!

    this is the only thing that bugs me this is a real issue BECAUSE IT RUINS THE GAME FOR US
    And if they couldnt handle two player mode why put in the game? Thats one of the main reasons why it was a day one buy from us.

    I want an answer from a DEV . Like i said i dont post often i just want to play the game with my partner. Ill be back and see if any DEV replys.

    Thanks, Disappointed Fan

    This isn't game breaking for me. Yeah it's a little annoying, but I still have a blast playing split-screen.

    Barely made an account here to make a post on thi (I was playing and got frustrated when it kept lagging)

    I don't know why people think this isn't a problem, when my brother dies and I'm just about to finish a gunner off it lags and I die immediately.

    I know some people think that split screeners suck, but no, my brother and I are pretty good, usually the top two. So can we please get an answer from the devs about this.

    Yup ive been waiting to hear from the DEVS about the issue. Not some nobody on the forums with a dumb quick fix. Might be back on in a week to see if any DEVS reply.

    This is a very large issue. This is much worse in the new DLC Spunky Cola than previously, so much so the game went from fun to very frustrating.

    Count me in with those effected, as I play split screen pretty much solely.

    It's definitely a major issue any time you wish to play splitscreen :|

    I've been seeing spawn lag EVERY time my wife and I play splitscreen. On top of that, we drop frames at least once every 5-10 seconds, causing my character to jump 3 feet in front of where I was going and immediately dying.

    I bought this the day it came out, I've ordered a statue from the shop, and I've already preordered on Steam to show support to Uber. I'm now reconsidering my preorder because of gamebreaking mechanics. This is something my wife and I LOVE to play together and it has gone from fun to downright frustrating and game-breaking. Will someone at Uber PLEASE look into this?!
