JaguarUSF Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 When I press the buttons to switch weapon type (- and =) in games that are played online, the game: (a) doesn't do anything, or ( switches them like 3 times over a minute or so This gets very frustrating. I don't have these lag /unresponsiveness problems during offline, single player matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkwarrior Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Got them too online. My ping to server was not very good: 180. Monk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaguarUSF Posted June 15, 2006 Author Share Posted June 15, 2006 I am using the Windows version, by the way. I was playing online tonight and the same thing happened. I had my weapon switch a good 3 minutes after I pressed the last weapon switch button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaytoniousRex Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Is everything else just as horrible (e.g. vehicle control, issues orders to bots or teammates, etc.) or is this specific function laggy while everything else is basically OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkwarrior Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Strange thing is: it also seems to happen off-line (Win version). I was using a heavy mortar and wasn't able to switch the ammo-type at all. Everything else seems ok, offline and online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yurch Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Mortar vehicles autochoose thier ammo, the keys have no effect with this weapon type. It is selected for range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, this is the only thing in the game I've seen that's laggy. Look for my full review Monday, June 26th on Out of Eight!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grappler Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Jag I think that what you saw with the mortar was not lag. The unit just finally got into range where the other ammo was appropriate. Since this unit switches on its own, it might appear to you that your commmand took a long time, when in fact, your switch ammo command had no effect at all.

JaguarUSF Posted June 17, 2006 Author Share Posted June 17, 2006 So mortar units can't select their weapon type? Well, I guess it's a "feature" instead of a "bug." Now I know. And knowing's half the battle! G. I. JOE!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaytoniousRex Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 I always found Teela's lessons at the end of He-Man so much more enlightening than the ones from GI Joe. Well, to each his own... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
