GHANDI...

 

Is anything ever going to be done about dashboarding?  I'm sick of having stellar games/stats lost because some douchebag (or clan of douchebags) decided to dashboard; completely killing the game.  I don't understand why this is such a difficult phenomenon to counter.

 

I understand why it happens but why can't there be a second or multiple hosts (e.g. slave hosts) to cover should the primary give out?  I can't imagine it would be all that difficult.  It's not like the slave host(s) would have to have realtime positional updates etc like the primary host would.  I imagine they would just need pseudo frequent updates regarding current status of the game so it can be picked up again.  With something like this I don't imagine networking would take much of a hit, if any at all.

 

Is there some other technical challenge preventing this from being factored into these games?  This has become far too common a practice in CoD.  If we're not going to get dedicated servers, we need something to combat this.

We are exploring dashboarding remedies for future games. If we get something up and running in a reasonable timeframe MW3 could benefit from this although this isn't a priority focus of the support team at the moment.

Would you please take a look at this thread and bring it up with the MP team?

Thank you!

Shotgun balance has been repeatedly discussed with the MP designers.

Right then. Thank you GHANDI

And one more thing if you don't mind <3

There's a bug where the 'Explosion' animation is played on players (You place your arms up and wave them around) It currently plays on Riot shield users even if they have Blast Shield equipped. And this causes them to wave their shield around in from of them like it has no weight AND exposes them to gunfire. Could you also send that to the MP team? IT's a game breaking bug for riot shield users and defeats the entire purpose of them taking blast shield

I'll forward this too.

K/D Really means nothing in this game with dashboarding and lag. They should make a more realistic stat  like lag to death ratio L/D. I'd excel in that category.

If you don't mind me asking just out of interest how wildly does your KDR differ in MW3 to previous games?
