PSU-XBox 360: lag

[eightball]

anybody else on the 360 server experiencing bad lag this past week...wondering if its on my end or theirs

[JAFO22000]

I have not. Then again, I have not experienced much lag at all over my course of playing this game.

[Sychosis]

No, actually I haven't.

You checked your connection's speed lately?

[eightball]

no i haven't how do you so that again? this is my first time experiencing it as well

[Sychosis]

I always go here to test my connection speed:

http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/

Just click on whichever server is closest.

[eightball]

That's quite good. Do you experience the same lag playing any other games over XBL?

[eightball]

no and i haven't for this game either until just recently, the past couple days

[Sychosis]

Have you ever had to change your DNS settings before?

[eightball]

nope

[Sychosis]

Try changing them to 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2 (primary and secondary) and see if that gives you a more stable connection.

[eightball]

is that through the xbox...not sure exactly how to do that??

[Sychosis]

Yeah, you change it from the dashboard on the system blade, it's under network settings.

[eightball]

thanks sychosis i'll give it a try

[Sekani]

Some of the "lag" you may be experiencing is not actual network lag, but just slowdown from poor coding on Sonic Team's part. This is for the most part unavoidable, but I noticed that you get a lot less slowdown if you're playing on an HDTV.

If you play any other games besides PSU I strongly advise against changing your DNS settings.

[eightball]

i do play on an hdtv and i thought it might be from their side however no one else seems to be experiencing this??

[Lman90245]

Sometimes when your on a populated universe you'll have some server-side lag. I've had that happen a few times, and one time half of our party DCed.

Would your HD set be a DLP by any chance? Samsung in particular?

I changed mine and it didn't really affect my online gamez.

same here its gets incredibly annoying when you are in the last room on seabed s2 and you lag out

plus the last week i got rappies in mad creatures and when they dropped rares i couldnt pick up, then lagged out

my connection is totally fine, i dunno y it does this

[Daremo]

I play on an HD and I get some graphics lag, but never to the point the game becomes unplayable.
