What has happened to matchmaking since 1.02?!

Post » Fri Apr 09, 2010 10:14 pm

Has anyone else had the same problems I have since the patch? I am not seeing it this much on the boards so I am wondering if it is just me. Friends join a squad, and two out of three join a game while the other is still in the lobby. The counter gets stuck on "1" in the countdown. The party disconnects from multiplayer and goes back to their individual squad lobbies. What the hell did this patch do? I can silent kill now, but can't play with my friends. That is a little ass backwards. Is there any game that comes out now that is good to go, or is every game now just a series of patches that make the game progressively worse?

Yeah, the countown getting stuck on 1 and still ticking is infuriating. Either by myself or in a squad, it happens regardless and will probably be addressed in the next patch.

Happens all the time for me. Nevernoticed any problems before the patch. I also have troubles voting for maps a lot. And for the first time ever I'm getting once in a while framerate hiccup and it's not when orbital strike is used. Happened to me on liberty island last durring CTR. Stealth killing is now 1000x more difficult cause the target needs to be standing still pretty much. I can't sprint and catch up to a moving target and stealth kill him.

Please fix match making. Everything the OP said is happening constantly for me. I can't play in squads larger than 2 without half the people not joining.

Oh and sometimes my rank number disappears from next to my name and I cannot see everyone whose in the room when I press select to see the scoreboard. It looks like I'm outnumbered but I'm not and such.

I want to get a friend to buy this game but idk if I can cause keeping squads together is so difficult. Cry-Tom help!!!!

I forgot to mention the problem where the framerate chugs out of nowhere. It hasn't happened as much as the first few days after the patch, but it still happens none the less. I hope the next patch corrects these issues. I am loving this game, but after the patch, I started getting pissed more than anything else. I can still play fine by myself, but what's the point of that? Especially when I had six buddies pick this up, just so that none of us can play together!

I just got the game so i can't comment on pre-patch gameplay obviously.
But from what i've seen on the aproximately 20 min. i played online the matchmaking svcks... It does take a while to find other players! I've also experienced framerate problems quite often. And i ran into this weird glitch where the game sound just stopped working out of nowhere, while playing a normal online match. :/
