purposes? Capture live game play just to show people how absolutely horrible the lag is in the game. I can understand a little lag but when it lags in H4 it’s insane at how bad it is.

Lag is a subjective experience for every player. Personally, I haven’t experienced much lag but that might be because of the fact that I live in North America and I generally just play Big Team Slayer, the most populated gametype. Although, I did play some Dominion and I didn’t experience any lag either…
Are you talking about the lag during War Games or the lag that occurs during Spartan Ops?

War games. You know when a players appears to be 20 feet away from you and then suddenly he is right in front of you.
Um… Dude, there might be more to the lag than what you may think, plus I might actually think you got matched up with some people with crappy ping, which causes the lag.

Whatever the reason is it’s bad and ruins the experience. I’ve never experienced lag like this in other Halo games and I’ve played them all a lot. Even Halo 3 when it lags is nothing like in Halo 4.
It’s actually got better for me as of late - although It still happens every now and then.
So annoying that at PAX no-one asked why there isn’t a region/good connection filter?

No lag in dominion? That’s the laggiest gametype out there. You sure you’re playing Halo 4?

I rarely ever experience lag in Halo 4 (one match every week or so), be it in Dominion, Big Team, or even good old regular Infinity Slayer. And when I do experience lag, it’s only for about a minute, and is usually very minor. I believe the problem is on your end, not the game’s.
Firstly, there’s plenty of videos of lag as it is, usually resulting in funny business. Secondly, as someone said, the game is not laggy per se just because your experience was as such.
Your NAT settings may not be open, perhaps your bandwidth is being taken up by something else etc There is no more lag in H4 than in H3, the net code is improved.
Naturally, games like Dominion and big team will require more resources and lag more but yes, this game plays fine.
Now if you want to rrally complain about lag, the only legitimate issue is occasionally in Spops it lags, and on some war games maps in MP split screen (Shatter, Complex) it lags a lot but it could be worse.
