It would be VERY helpful if people post their system within their lag report! From the profile stats I get that most of the PSN users have horrible lag, many XBL user report its fine… I’m still deciding on which system I should get MK…
Ok. I played quite a few matches tonight (on the 360). My results? As I said before, with the exception of people who teeter between 1 and 2 connection dots, I have no issues with the online.
Played two games online tonight. It was a little stuttery, but my inputs went in perfectly.
Yea, I’m a little let down by the netcode. Probably about 8% of my games are unplayable. The strong majority seem to be okay, but some have lag that is noticeable.
I’m sure we’ll get a patch to fix it, though. :tup:
I’m experiencing horrible, unplayable lag too.
Tried doing some home troubleshooting in case it was something on my end and I can’t pinpoint an issue with my setup.
What’s really crazy is how about 12 hours ago I had ZERO lag in almost all matches I played. Then my friend who lives a few miles from me signed on to play some matches with me and we decided to make a private match. We could not join each other under any circumstances. ‘‘Session no longer available.’’
So I cycled the power on my stuff and tried again, same thing. My friend could join other people… he just couldn’t play me. That just doesn’t make any sense. I’m kind of at a loss.
After that incident with my friend earlier, all of a sudden the servers kept disconnecting me and I could no longer join anything. About a half hour of trying to join something later, I finally made it into a match and the lag was absolutely unplayable.
This game is odd. Hopefully whatever the issue is gets remedied.
you should add your location when posting.
no one would be surprised if you live in china…
Same here. Played a good 8 tag matches tonight, only noticed lag for a brief couple secs in 1 match. On the night prior, very little lag as well, but I did have 3 disconnected matchups. Hopefully they are working on these hiccups.
It’s really bad for me. I stopped playing online yesterday after I coudn’t block sub zeros slide from 3/4ths of the screen away. I was playing a sub zero who would literally always ice clone then slide, after I saw the ice clone I went into a crouch block. He easily slid the nearly the length of the screen and still hit me low, while my character ignored my inputs.
Regarding bread and butter combos, offline I with stryker I was hitting this combo:

pretty consistently. It was impossible online. Didn’t hit it even once. Had to substitute back kick for the dash + 2 punches and baton throw at the end.
Netcode is more or less ass right now, played a set last night with a friend. I usually have great to good connections with anyone in SFIV/MvC3/BB/Random other fighters and this had like 2-3 second input delay during all of the matches, hell even the announcer lagged saying fight or when Fatality scrolled across the screen.
Maybe it’s an isolated incident, people seem really divided about this Netcode issues though.
Day one online was great for me. Lagged only twice out of 30 something matches.

I’ve noticed the servers going down a lot lately, making it impossible to connect to matches.
The lag is most noticeable on the character select screen. It takes a good 3 seconds to show my character selection after I’ve selected it.
i wont buy the game b4 to know if the netcode is good enough. So Id like to just play the demo to know the game, but i cant find the demo for xbox, spent hours searching at live yesterday. Can someone help me with that?
There isn’t a demo for Xbox 360.
I’m actually amazed at how bad the matchmaking and lag is on this game from the get go.
I don’t normally get salty when losing but ffs, Smoke’s just spamming teleports and I can’t block due to the lag is killing this for me…
I only want to put these guys in their rightful play NR. Is that too much to ask???
Which makes me wonder how many people bought the game and rushed onto online play.
The netcode is so bad it brought down PSN.
Maybe PSN brought down MK netcode? :>
PSN is shit. I have a PS3/Xbox360 and I would ALWAYS prefer the box for online/non exclusive games.
Sony support ist just horrible. All fighters have lags there, compared to xbl.
And download speeds…better I stop here 
how do you suggest people connect their console to the internet then without a router? taking up an entire internet connection for just their console seems a pretty crappy solution

NRS knows how bad the online is.
