I gotta say, idk if Azure is the reason or not, but the game does have some amazing netcode. Other games with dedicated servers like Battlefield or even Gears sure didn't run this well.

It's all those former infinity ward devs. You remember how smooth MW2 and MW1 was? Then after MW2 it started to go downhill with Black Ops 1 and MW3...

All those former IW people that worked on CoD are now working on Titanfall. They're really good at netcode. Idk how they do it.

Well, it better not be for just Titanfall players, that's a massive pisstake if so, I wanted to play PVZ that night but couldn't.

Couldn't disagree more. CoD4 had no host migration and MW2 had a pretty much netcode from my experience.

I think the earlier games all had the superior netcode. It was when they started adding a ton of stupid shit, like MW2 and on, that the game started playing worse. Probably because it had way more to handle than just gun on gun.

This is what the message says

From: Xbox Live

We know you experienced an issue signing in on your Xbox One on 3/11/2014.  We apologize and will soon give you 7 days of Xbox Live Gold for your inconvenience.

So Im going to assume if you were one of the people having trouble signing in you will get it.

From my personal experience, MW2 ran super smooth for me and then Black Ops 1 was super bad that I just was pretty much forced to stop playing due to the lag.

Only problem I had with MW2 was commando and One man army nube tubes.

Pretty good example of Cloud's power. And even though people will still make fun of the cloud because MSFT said that XBO is going to use the cloud, if it can do similar things as this through out the gen ill be very happy.

That demo was running on a high end PC...They even said so in the video.


Yes and doesnt mean that their original plan that they revealed over a year ago with using the cloud to improve on things isnt going to happen.  Again, they showed an example of what it can do which very well may be implremented in to XBO since they "already" said it would in the past on multiple occasions.

First it was the argument of "cloud powz" and how the cloud will never improve gaming.  There is multiple threads on this subject of peopel stating just this.  Now the new argument is XBO isnt getting it?  So MSFT has just been talking out their ass for the last year when it comes to the cloud with Xbox?

Clearly they have, as they've shown nothing running on the Xbox One.
