A new ST:HD debate - netcode

[SuicidalGrandpa]

I said Other.

How bout you make the Live experience better. I mean, Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike has minimal slow downs (as far as lag goes) and there’s little to no input delay. We shouldn’t be making exceptions for this, especially if I’m going to be paying money for old shit.

Outsource it to Poporu or whoever Poporu outsourced their netcode to because it doesn’t get any better.

Ditto.

lol 3s is pretty bad on live when it lags. Tons of animation + lag = horrible matches

All this bitching about “The Best Netcode” is nuts.

Seriously - ask around, Without a doubt the XBL Game period to have the best netcode is KOF: NeoWave, the only game 2nd to KOF NeoWave is KOF '03/KOF: MI (same netcoding I heard) too bad nobody plays MI lol

You do international matches? I’ve only really done domestic…pretty much lag free most of the time. Maybe I’ve been lucky :looney:

Theres always a slight delay no matter what. I have a few players I play online that I get awesome connections with that rival offline play but thats about it. Theres still some lag though but its really good. Trust me though, most of the time 3s suffers bigtime online.

On the other hand just about all of my connections in games like CFE, KOF 2k3 and zbattle are top notch instead of just a select few. Also theres usually no noticeable input delay.

Don’t know if any of you are interested in this, but, you can check out the full slide show over at the gamekult site… dated for 4/12 of course, but, there’s some interesting tidbits on other games such as a Super Puzzle Fighter HD Remix. Enjoy

I’m not saying the game always lags, but when it does 3s is really bad mostly because of all the animation.

Fighting games are nearing its end…

It takes TWO people with decent connections and good routing to each other in order for there to be a lag free game. If you’ve never had a laggy match on DOA4 then it’s you that hasn’t played much of it online. Try playing someone from another country; chances are even if you both have 20Mbit connections, the routing will be poor and the distance too great for the match to be lag free. Such isn’t ALWAYS the case, but most of the time it is. This can even be the case with people in your own country. If the routing isn’t good (too many hops, etc) the conditions will be poor.

And to clarify my post, I wasn’t saying DOA4 always runs choppy online. I was saying DURING LAG it seems to be choppier as opposed to say, SFII’HF.

Also, I don’t know if there’s any input delay in DOA4 or HF (if there is it has to be really minimal), but during lag it’s really noticeable in Anniversary Collection. Really frustrating.

I already said earlier in this thread that I can play the Japanese or Europeans with almost no lag. Frequently.

And Mycah, you and me’ve played Neowave a few times, but I’m telling ya, when it comes to online mode, DOA4 trumps it. And I love Neowave, easy second. But DOA4 is still tops.
