Ah, I knew this was the same guy who raged over video games being too difficult: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=210279

Lag is unfortunate, but I'm pretty sure games are tested for lag. How good those tests are, I don't know, but they're probably not all that great. But having too strict standards isn't good for anyone. If you have a problem, you can always vote with your wallet.



Around the Network

Peer to peer. What do you expect? If it's not that, it's your internet. Anything under 60Mbps is extremely outdated. I heard people still have slow connections? Maybe people from the South? Not sure.

Yes, every company should install ping testers in millions of homes world wide to test the game before launch. They also should monitor all ISPs to make sure the path to their servers is always the shortest one and that all their traffic gets priority queued.

It's so simple but the companies are so lazy that they don't wanna do it.

xD well said
