KoF XII wouldn't suck if the netcode was so bad. It does, so most people think the game sucks.

The net issues seem to affect the US more. I can get lag free matches easily in Japan. A shame. I hope it is sorted soon.


Obviously because there are far less people playing in Japan.

I think Japan has a better internet structure overall, and because Japan isn't as large as America connections should run much smoother than in the US. This game with good online is pretty good, and if that's the case in Japan I'm happy to hear it, but when I tried to play a few matches all of them lagged and I ended up playing Blazblue for a couple hours instead. I want to like KOF XII, but without a good netcode I don't see it happening.

Garamond is correct. Japan is roughly the size of California and the US is roughly the size of Australia. It's far easier for developers to get on-line titles to run smoothly in Japan because it's smaller land area.
