good results mate, but how about the other test? did you see it?
edit: wow 45mb/s thats pretty good mate, the only thing is does it help in anyway? like for instance i find stagevu, to be pretty slow, but i think thats down to the site and not my connection, i guess my question is are there any site that allow you those kind of download speeds, you see i went upto 20mb once to see what it was like, i didnt notice any difference... my understanding was that the 50mb/100mb speeds where g...
yeah man theose are some nice results, did you get that first try? and what speed does your isp say you get? cos i think for what im paying for its not too bad, i only pay for 10 mb, i pay £25 for tv, broadband, landline... i think for the broadband only you can get it for about £15... out of interest how much you pay bud?... also im not sure if this would make a difference but i am downloading a film off stagevu, using the ps3 at the mo, thats what i did the test on too, so ill hav...
but i would say the loading times are a bit too long, hopefully they are working on that... and some things seem a bit daft, like when you try a hot lap, you get 6 laps, then when those are up your sent back to the modspot! why? cant i just have the option to retry without having to drive there again and go through all the loading again! also when i do a race couldnt they sent people back to the lobby to try again, instead of booting you back out to modspot, then asking if you want another ra...
just out of interest could you do something for me, go onto speedtest.net (not sure if you have used it but its ace!), there is a section that says "bandwidth only tells half the story" do all the tests and let me know your results? here are mine... download 8.24... upload 0.48... second test (when i clicked the link saying bandwidth is half the story) ping 56ms... jitter 17ms... in conclusion in rated my connection B* saying it was very good but some online games may not work opti...
and when i first got with virgin, their lowest speed was 2mb, i told em i wanted it to play games online and they said it wasnt really good enough for gaming and they recommended 10mb... do you use hardwired or wifi? that can make a difference too... also im no expert but i thought that P2P worked by finding people with a similar connection speed as you? so if you have a c**p speed, then everyone on your matches will have c**p speeds too no? a match with everyone that has bad connections is b...
i would never defend this game and yeah the p2p is crap... however, a part of the problem could be your internet connection, 2mps average? thats terrible and inadiquate for playing online games, i use virgin, their connections start at 10mb! i get on average 9mb, i cant say if that would help with this game, cos i never bought the POS but i can tell you ive never experienced lag! not that ive noticed anyway.
im glad you learned your lesson, but you were one of the people that supported this sorry excuse for a game lol, It was pretty obvious from the start they were only making minor ajustments to the game, and releasing MW1.5, only to cash in on the first games suprise success... hopefully next time you research your purchase better. or just avoide activision totally, thats a good start lol.
I got killed, by a butter knife, in that exact same manner the other day! Im living proof this is possible!.....
this is exactly what im talking about lmao... you think this 9 mins is all that the game is about? my god the story is about a serial killer! you think there wont be any action? please go and look at some trailors or something! also if you wanna see more happening on screen google "heavy rain disco". i just wish people found out a little more about the game before commenting, oh and btw home is getting some great praise here, but ofcourse home is really good looking so i can see wha...
i said "yeah god of war is coming out soon" (i would of mentioned heavy rain but well you will see why i didnt bother in a mo) he says " nah dont like those kinda games" (i wanna pull my hair out!!!) i say "dan its awesome mate and you dont know what kinda game it is!" he says yeah but its not gonna be up there with uncharted 2 is it" i said no its gonna surpass it! lol" ofcourse he didnt believe me then he came round one day so i showed him! his jaw hi...
You cant judge ANY game on 9 minutes of the start! Just like you cant judge a film from the first 9 minutes either! well you can but you would be fairly closed minded, for instance i said to my friend "you watching slumdog millionaire tonight?" he said "nah i dont like that kind of film" (guessing he was basing his opinion on the fact it was asian and from the adverts) i said "what type of film is it then? you dont know what its about!" he said "yeah i do, s...
well then its not worth the money surely? i never played the first but my mate said it was pants! so if this has less content well....
and i know that if my daughter went somewhere and she heard swearing she would not copy it now cos she knows it is wrong... but if she did no i would not stop her going there, i would ask her where she heard this and what happened, i would tell her again that its wrong, and rude etc (by this point shed be older anyway... what would make me stop kath going to a friends house is if i found out the childs parents did drugs or were violent etc, i wouldnt stop her because of what films they watche...
yes people have different opinions on hitting as discipline, my thoughts are that its wrong! how can you hit a kid then if the kid hits say its wrong and hit them? lol, just like me swearing i had to stop it too cos ive told her its wrong... I am a pretty strict parent, but im strict with the right things, it seems your parents were not... when i was young i had some quite nasty friends, they would just throw eggs at people in the street, sometimes stones or bricks at passing cars! id always ...
you said you wasnt allowed to friends houses ( the thing you said would stop bad behaviour), but then you said that you had no rules or discipline?... anyway you have to look at this in another way... my daughter watches tom and jerry, she sees tom hit jerry and visa versa, yet she knows it is wrong to hit people... and if she did hit someone (not in self defence) then i would tell her off and explain that hitting is wrong! and that tom and jerry is just a cartoon and not real... you will be ...
firstly did you not see this? "Heavy Rain versus Alan Wake HD screenshot comparison"... thats right its a screenshot comparison, talking only about the graphics, whether its fair or not to compare these games is debatable, but hey the comparison has been made... as for you saying HR is linear! so you played it then? no shooting? so you played it then? lol.. you cant comment on gameplay until you play the game! hense why you dont see many if any gameplay comparisons!... what is for s...
even before potentially, they will wanna sleep over at friends houses, so non violent game playing john, your kid can go to, but horrible gta playing steven they are not unless you go too? lol.. do u think kids are stupid? and mate the discipline has to be done early, i wouldnt punish my kid for hittin a video game character, or for watching tom hit jerry! but if she hit for real then yes! so shed have no reason to rebel. dont you see the difference?
i know what posted up is saying but, the age rating is like a quick quite as to good (bloody gorey) games, and boring non violent games. in a kids head that is.. i remember when i was young id scan the vhs boxes just at the rating, then when i found and 18 look at what it was! lol. ahhh robocop! bingo! lol
you say your parents let you get away with murder, do you mean play/watch violent/offensive material, or do you mean they were soft regarding everything? ie not telling you off and punishing you when you did wrong.. because i will refer to what i said ealier about discipline! its much more important than what they watch or play on tv. when i say punishment and discipline i mean in a non violent way. if my kid missbehaves i use the naughty step or i take away a toy she likes.. it works wonders...
dont you think that its stupid they kick you out to the modspot everytime you do something? its not that i hate the modspot, but considering load time are so bad, having to load up the modspot, just so i can go back and load up the hotlap again, seems rediculous, why couldnt they do it like wipeout? everytime you race/time trial or whatever, you get the option to retry, just makes sense to me.
