I have this weird feeling that the devs messed up with the initial launch. All these additional milliseconds for these abilities were apparently accidentally added to everybody's ping.

They have to know how much people are complaining about lag comp. Their forums are filled with messages regarding it.

I picture an interview with Nathan Thurm when thinking about Activision talking about the lag in this game.

The problem is that they're solely focused on helping people improve their connections, while there is widespread belief out there that having a worse connection is better due to the mythical "lag comp". I don't think they understand how deeply that belief is entrenched, and how poisonous and undermining it is.
It's so far beyond the point of helping people shave a few ms off their ping.

LOL, really? Well, who are they "compensating" for then? I was always under the impression, mainly from comments from others, that the compensation was built in for high latency/slower speed connections. I suppose that is what I get for believing some of the misinformation out there.

The lag comp thing started circulating around with MW3 from what I remember. It doesn't matter, really. This is a new game with new/updated netcode so who knows what they're doing. It doesn't appear that THEY even know what they're doing.

Best Xbox360 COD games in my perceived order (I've played all of them):
COD4
MW3
BLOPS
MW2
BLOPS2
W@W

2. Based on your list I can tell you don't know what you're talking about.

No hint of even a generic sort of "netcode improvement" mentioned....nothing, and nothing about spawns? I need to learn how to do some of this video posting so I can show you guys what happened to me yesterday in one match of Domination. I died six times in a row without taking more than a step or two and four of those deaths were from killstreak rewards that were already in the air and gave me no chance to avoid. The other two deaths were by someone that was close enough to easily kill me. Stuff like this shouldn't happen....EVER! Can they not develop a spawn on teammate system where you spawn on a teammate furthest from an enemy? How about some immunity for 3-4 seconds upon spawning in, is that an option? I don't care one bit about dying in an honest to goodness legitimate way, but this spawn killing, spawn trapping, and obvious lag compensation deciding gun fights way of dying really sucks.
In the end, it's just a game, but I am speechless and in shock at how they can ignore these serious issues in the game.

Maaaaaaaaaan. That's all I gots to say about that.
MW2 all the way
CoD4
The rest are history but I know I am alone in this and it's ok. There is a reason I have put more hours on MW2 than any other CoD games. I enjoyed it so much that I invested good amount of money on recording equipment to make videos. The other games didn't deserve my attention strong enough. Even if I wanted to get a few games of MW3 with you guys, I can't because I sold all CoD except MW2.

Jitu, I still play MW2. If you ever get back on XBL, then hit me up.

In your opinion, which is all I was giving in my post. I put more time and progressed further in MW3 than in any other CoD to date. To me, that says something about the game and the way I perceived it. If it makes you happy to ignore my list, by all means, do it.
