[QUOTE="GoodkupoBan"]In ranked games, the host should have no power except the advantage of no lag, like in GeOW.jcant

 rainbow six is the same, You cant boot people outside of the lobby anymore. Idk why people complain about getting booted in rainbow six. If you dont want to get booted, play ranked. Don;t complain about it when you dont have to.

Most people in Rainbow play player matches because it is easier to get a game together with people from your friends list. In my situation, one of the three people that I play with will find a game and send everyone else invites before it begins. Also, after a player match ends, you can switch maps, teams, gametype, all without having to invite everyone back into the same game again. It's just a much easier way of playing.
My only problem with it is that someone shouldn't be able to just selectively boot people. Maybe if there was a voting system for booting people. Say, someone gets 3 people voting on them during a game a la BF2?

Xbox 360 games need to stop relying on one person setting up a game and having random people join. It gives the host far too much power. For example, I just played a 20 minute game of Team Sharpshooter in Rainbow 6 Vegas and with 15 minutes gone in the match, the guy who was top on my team got booted and banned. It was then 2 on 3.

Host and another member of their team spawn camps and kills me a couple of times and we nearly tied. I managed to pull two kills from the spawn and brought back the lead... gets to 20 seconds left and he boots the other member of my team and me. It's rediculous that the guy can just kick people 'cos he can't take losing.

This isn't something specific to Rainbow either, that was just a very recent example. 360 games really need to start incorporating the matchmaking perfection that Bungie designed.

Anyway, opinions?

I'm gonna try to get the achievement for hosting a 16 player dedicated server in Vegas. Just wondering if there'd be some people here who wanna help... it's a quick, 5 min game and all you gotta do is invite your friends :P

I'll have this room open for the next 30 mins (or until it fills up) so if you see me, join. (or, I could send you an invite, whichever :p)

I'd really appreciate the help.

Ya I think that paying for online is enough, no that its very expensive. But I expecially hate it when the devs of a game(Epic for example) want to give you new maps and such for free but MS makes you pay for them.Mikey289

Wow, You really got a grip on how this works, don't you?

Content has to be made and published... who pays for that? Free labour, I suppose? The only reason the Epic stuff was free was that it was sponsored by Discovery Channel. MS doesn't make a Publisher sell things as opposed to giving them away, the fact that these people need to get paid is why it costs you money. Don't suppose you just go into a store and expect everything to be free, do you? I mean, what about taxes? They are paid so why should you have to buy anything?

[QUOTE="firestorm5039"]I bought all my other consoles, and it's take like 10 minutes just to get to 12 percent on download...why?gameofthering

That does nothing except glitch the download meter... or did you think 50% of the download magically ended up on your 'box?

Maybe you missed one on accident? No clue.Lostfile

Done them all a few times... trying to get the achievement for T-hunt splitscreen, realistic.

I have completed all the missions of split screen terrorist hunt on realistic and I didn't get the achievement... any ideas why?
