[QUOTE="psychobrew"][QUOTE="wiifan001"] For Goldeneye, I stayed up beyond my sleeping habits. Everything runs smoothly. The maps are great, save one or maybe two, and I've had no lag or dealt with hackers...at least so far. Two nights ago I spent over 6 hours straight online, and much more online time dating back since Wednesday. For the Conduit: I wasn't criticizing the Conduit for having hackers, I was criticizing the Conduit's hackers. I was also criticizing The Conduit for having brutal glitches such as the spawning glitch (no, that wasn't due to hacking) and for having horrible maps and for major lagging.wiifan001
To be fair, I've run in to a number of glitches in Goldeneye, though the biggest one seems to have gone away. My first day online, my system froze 3 times within one and a half matches (I was only able to complete one match). I was ready to shelf the game at one point because of that. I'm still having issues with sticky controls.The controls become momentarily unresponsive at times and that get frustrating especially when you are frantically trying to aim at someone. I do hope these issues work themselves out as well, but so far the online experience has been somewhat similar to The Conduit for me when concidering the amount of time the game has been released.
That does sound like a doozie, but that does not match my description of experiences of Goldeneye at all. Shelf the game? Come on you couldn't have already completed the 007 Classic mode and Time Trials on every level already :P Anyways, perhaps it is another cause: poor online strength connectivity, bad copy, or simply bad luck. If you're using a wiimote/nunchuk, that could potentially be the cause of these temporarily unresponsive controls. After all, even a little lag mixed with that could produce that annoyance. Do try again, and hopefully the results will wind much more positively. Better hurry, I hear those hacking f****** morons are going to ambush this game in a few short months, or less ;)I did try again. The freezes only happened on the second day (I didn't try multiplayer on the first day), and lots of people were having the problem. That issue seems to have worked itself out though. Wiimote/nunchuck should not become momentarily unresponsive. They don't in any other online FPS I've played. I just played a match without any hiccups and I did fairly well (12 and 6 in half a match). It's so much nicer when the Wiimote does exactly what you want it to do (some of that may be experience though -- after you've dialed in the controls and have played enough, the controls become second nature and do whatever you want them to do without thinking about it). Hopefully the control issues will work themselves out like they did in MWR, thyough I still can't ADS without movement outside of the dead zone freezing.
