Problems with host migration and parties still splitting up.

First off I am glad that Microsoft got off their asses and had the update approved. Secondly I really like the update in terms of the fixing of glitches and class flaws.

But... The host has only migrated once for me since the update. Kids always rage quit and either dashboard out or turn off their xbox and it sends everybody to the title screen. Its really annoying to have to continue to do that.

Parties are constantly being split up. I typically play with one or two people, and after a few games of playing together we eventually get split up, its really annoying. Why even play with your friends if this is going to happen? I figured its because people notice we are good and join our session in progress for a coattail effect. I appear off line to try and prevent it but nothing can stop these leeches. I figure they join our session because when were are split we say "hey lets see what happens after the game." After we do so the same kid who joined the session continues to play with me or my friends and one of our party(or more) are forced to play with randoms.

Hopefully you guys can look into this and find a solution. (fingers crosses)

Next time tell your friends not to group hug me when I am riding your coattails.

Haha prime example. That was funny as hell by the way. Laughed about that for a while. Did you enjoy our hugs?

I was spinning with joy, wasn't I?

I knew it. :roll: lets make out later

On a side note I am game you understood the coattail reference. Big ups to you. You wouldn't believe how dumb people are to not understand that one.

Sure, let me go buy a pack of dental dams first.

You'll need em lol

Back on topic.. I'm pretty sure everyone will agree the host thing got worse... and Himi likes men.

It doesn't seem to have gotten better in an appreciable way. And parties seem to split up randomly for no reason still. And there is still no match-making system in place to try and make for more even teams.

It makes me happy that Southside is smart and can understand sarcasm and criticism.

Happy in the pants? Almost as happy in the pants I'd be if this host and party **** got fixed.

It almost seems like the previous issue has been reversed in a way.

What I mean is, before the update, my party would get split up the first game and stay together most of the time after that. Now, my party will stay together in the beginning, but one unlucky person (dubbed "the schmuck") tends to get put on the other team every game after that.

9/10 times i get migrations to pass, and usually 7-9 seconds. from what i understand, everyone just quits as soon as the migration screen opens, so the host-in-the-making quits and the migration fails.
party split up thing 2nded though.

Usually I fail to migrate host, which is pretty annoying when it's a good game. When I party,it's usually 5-6 people, and normally we play fine on one team for a few rounds, before MNC goes Russian Roulette and throws someone on the wrong team, or makes it 3v3.

IMO this should be fixed as soon as possible for Uber, much more important than the other problems. Since the patch I have probably been migrated to.. maybe 2-3 new hosts, out of hundreds of tries. As soon as there's a problem I get kicked.

Also the party splitting is redic. It seems worse after the patch, but that might just be me noticing it more. I've been split up from friends multiple times with only 2 of us in the room, tons of times with 3, which shouldn't need to happen.

Yeah, I'm wondering if the massive amount of cricket wireless connections make all of the problems more pronounced with host migration issues. Not sure if Uber will respond, but is it hard to simulate conditions of a real online game, which contains many people from many different locations? Most of the bugs that were fixed by the title update seemed to be caused by lag to a certain degree, and a lot of the new issues also seem to be caused by lag.
