So along with the lag issues I'm seeming to have it will not let on the EA sever's when I try to play with fellow squad mates. I have to use the play now option for some reason

EA servers seem to be a bit wonky lately, I don't understand it either but man does it grind my gears.

Does it go the same for bf1943?

I don't understand it either to me personally I feel as if DICE is just sitting at thier offices have a giant drunken party for the past 3 weeks.

Honestly DICE using the EA servers just seems like a poor move. With all the games already running off them, why add a massive game using one of the largest physics engines ever to it?

Who know's what is going through their little minds. All I know is once they have really screwed things up

I don't blame DICE more than I blame EA's piece of S*** servers. DICE made a great game and then EA was like DERRRRRRRP

Well it all falls on us because we're the ones getting the raw end of the deal here not them

Oh dear, It's really hit the shitters lately. I've had to COMPLETELY change my play style to compensate for the mass lagg. I can no longer shotgun, period. It does not work one bit taking an average of 2 or more shells at close range and it's utterly useless anytime else, which sucks because I've been doing so great as a shotgun medic. I'm now forced to be a "HURR DERR SPREY N PREY XDDD" dickwadd like the rest of the community, and even then the hit registry sucks so hard, it feels like I'm playing bad company 1. My basic play style has degraded from tacticool coverfire and watching my teammates back with my SPAS-12 and M9 to bunny-hop-strafe while holding right trigger with the M249 SAW.

Shitsux.

I was playing on Panama Canal conquest mode earlier, driving a Quad-Bike down the highway and out of nowhere I just nose-dive inside of the road, go underground and then get a suicide -10 points.

I gotta admit, I laughed for a second.

Then I broke down into tears and questioned why a shallow and over hyped game like MW2 can go lagg free and have one the worst communities possible, while a game that focuses on teamwork, communication and kick *** class based and vehicular diverse gameplay suffers so bad. WHY GOD? WHY!?!?!?!?

I'm jealous. The 360 has exclusives of course, but none of which are very good. Halo 3? Psh. Alan Wake? I'll go read a book instead.

I want a PS3 .

I played Alan wake and I thought it was really well done actually

I haven't tried it yet, but I've heard it's short, has very little variety in terms of enemies and the combat system gets old fast, so I can't imagine it's got much replayablitity. Uncharted 1 and 2 were incredible games however, and the second has online multiplayer as well.

We're a little off topic, no? Haha.

Naughy Dog has caused a big S*** storm over their multi player. It's not the same as it was 5 months ago, they started finagling with all the weapons and adjusting the health. Now it's not as fun to play. Sorry to say but they made to NOOB FRIENDLY!

Well even so, I see it as more of a gimmick. In this day and age, piracy runs rampant and multiplayer is the only thing keeping pirates at bay from a select few titles, as well as a good portion of the underaged online community not realizing that video games were originally about... well... Y'know... FUN. It seems like everything nowadays just HAS to be a contest of skill and player ability, so I'm sure an announcement of multiplayer in uncharted 2 sparked some interest.

Though Uncharted 1 and 2 were primarily focused on the intense cinematic, action packed, puzzle solving, treasure hunting, Nathan Drake is a badassing and all around fun gameplay of the SINGLE PLAYER.
