I think there might be at first, and of course there are gonna be those people out there specifically looking for glitches of the sort. But like always it'll get patched in due time no doubt.

If they arent hosting the servers then yes. So long as the people are hosting matches and you are playing based off how compatible you are with their connection, then yes there will be that stupid host advantage.

lag is inevitable but it will definitely be a lot better. I doubt there will be much "host advantage" as for glitches inevitable but how serious they will be and how fast they get patched is what we want to know.

I really hated the advantages of being host in Gears 1. I hope they fixed the problem in Gears 2. Thats the one thing that ruined the game for me.

Cliff has specifically said that is one of the issues he is focussing on online. To quote him, "optimise, optimise, optimise" so i imagine we will see a drastic improvement.

Most games use peer to peer, even those like COD and Halo which host their own servers, I think we have to give devs more credit for minimising lag wwhen it's ultimately out of their control

Probably but I don't think you'll notice it much.

There may be a little bullet lag, but should be less than the original.

Epic has said they fixed the host advantages from the first game. as far as lage if its not on a dedicated server then there will always be some lag no matter what fixes they do
