Honestly, the online play on the 360 is definitively better. I’ll still be annoyed if it doesn’t get another patch.
yea i got it just now but haven’t tested it yet… how close are you to the SE United States?
it was real quick update… if you booted up your xbox and looked away you may have missed it
I’m in TN, add me, we’ll test it out. XBL: nupoe
NYC/NJ area dude.
@ Tanner : We’re in the same sate and can’t get a decent connection. Looks like I’m going back to sf4 until they get this shit patched up right.
still pretty bad lag not as bad as yesterday but still no where close to BB or SF4 online play… i dunno about you but i was guessing a lot
Yeah. I just kept pounding out the combos in hopes that they’d show up on screen, but not happening.
haha… i was doing the same thing but with a connection like that we are both guessing when to throw them out b/c it’s impossible to react to the other person.
What the hell is wrong with these companies not getting their netcode right, 90%of all console gamers play games specifically for online , once the single player portion gets old. And this is a fighting game, not much else to do besides play online or versus. SNK needs to fire whoever worked on this code, and hire some1 who knows what they are doing. Just Terrible.
Oh ho ho…good info
I’ll try it out later
actually wait
if thats not on PSN that doesnt mean a godamn thing in my case
in any case I’ll see later
Because there is a whole lot of parts that can go wrong with online play. There have been only two games that had perfect netcode “out of the box.” One was DOA4, which was a special case because of Itagaki and his moral opposition to patches (which is admirable, frankly). The other was the 360 version of SF2 HD Remix, which had the big, expensive pre-release beta. SNK doesn’t really have the facilities for anything like that.
I traded blazblue and I feel the same way. If I knew I was gonna get such an incomplete game I would have kept my Blazblue and forgot about KOF 12.
downloaded an update just now for the 360, online still plays like crap…
Actually, VF5 had the best netcode right out of the box, as far as I know it had never even gotten patched for it either, and it’s still one of the best to this day.
Back on the topic specifically:
EVERYONE JUST PLAY AND HOST 2-MAN ROOMS
Seriously, I’ve played some of you guys in this thread too, just keep it 2 man rooms, it’s the best you can do right now and with yellow or better it’s satisfactory. SNK still has plenty… plenty of work to do, though
My lag tolerance is very very very low, and so I don’t even want to play rooms with 3 people in them anymore either. I will only play 2 man rooms from here on out and probably remain this way even after SNK fixes this shit some more.
Seems to be a huge Fail from SNK.
I didn’t know you were Action Kungfu!
You seriously fucked me up good. But that shit was lag-free. I’d have played you more, but I wanted to get more than three games in to test the netcode.
i’ve tried that. even played with someone in the same state with a good connection… it was still unplayable
VF5 also
damn Slide beat me
Unfortunately there’s only so much you can do, connection wise (wired, forwarded ports, etc.) SNKP/Ignition needs to know about our dissatisfaction.
Gonna give the 2 man room thing a try…
