NBA 2K9 Team-Up Mode Not Fixed By Patch (Pasta Padre)

[Pared]

That is very true, Stumble.

If just one person has a bad connection it will drag the entire game's connection down with it. It's just the nature of the system and out of 2k's hands.

You and a select others seem to have made it your mission to spam the boards.

We get it. You're upset for whatever reason.

That still has nothing to do with 2k's netcode and how 5 on 5 works post-patch. If one person has lag or someone disconnects, it screws up the game.

You have an answer, although not one that is apparently good enough for you. They obviously need to improve their netcode because, as you so insistently post all over the boards, other games do a better job of handling disconnects. To say that everyone can't connect and enjoy the game is simply un-true, however.

I would think some of you would hit a point where you realize your comments are nothing but whiny as you keep stating the same things over and over. If it's enough for you to be this upset with it, it's probably better you move on. But there's a reason you're this passionate about it, and it's because you WANT TO PLAY IT, because it's fun.

Obviously you're allowed to voice your displeasure about it but your comments start to get old when you keep posting them in every single thread. Over. And over. And over.

I remember hearing that EA has a different server architecture than 2K does... that 2K uses P2P and EA has dedicated servers that host and support the games. Anyone else remember that? If true, that's probably the key regarding FIFA, as that game is very popular and has people from all over the world playing 10 on 10 -- being a larger company would give EA a distinct advantage in terms of how they handle lag issues, I'd imagine..

They are certainly both using very different networking structures. If you'd notice all of EA's titles (aside from Madden) are pretty solid and all of 2k's have more issues, when compared.

no i have not gotten my answer, the answer im looking for is for the game mode to actually work as advertised, they promoted the game with this feature that they added because their competition offered this feature last year, yet they cant get theirs to work and they knew this, so they should have never advertised it

and i seriously dont believe that anyone has been able to get a 5 on 5 with all ten players to work lag free, ive yet to see any proof of that and that is what im requesting, ppl that claim that the patch fixed it are lying because when i try, or go to a friends house and try, or ask the friends on my friends list on xbl to try they tell me it doesnt work

that is y i asked for someone to show me some footage of it working with all 10 players lag free, its just not possible on 2ks servers, therefore they shouldnt have falsely advertised this feature

Okay, I'll do my best to get on tonight and use my Dazzle to capture a full 5 on 5 game. If people drop during the game, that's nobody's fault, but I'll start a game that shows 10 players in the pre-game lobby and post the video of how everything goes from there and people can draw their own conclusions. I'll let you know if I ended up cherry-picking some of the footage or had to try multiple times to start the game, etc.

And yeah, I just LOVE lying to strangers on an internet forum about something that carries no discernible benefit for me. It's practically my favorite way to spend my time these days.

1. Get Up
2. Shower
3. Go To Work.
4. Lie to some dude named Chris Smoove about my online gaming experience
5. Eat Dinner
6. Go To Sleep

Leave the questions about other (WAY more established here than yourself, by the way) members credibility out of it please... no place in this discussion. I'm not saying you're lying about having tons of issues, I expect the same respect from you.
