Is anyone else getting extreme unplayable lag with Brink on Xbox Live? I've tried a few different matches and they've all been so stuttery that I can't play the game at all. I've never had this much trouble with a 360 game before.

Forget about lag, I haven't been able to get into a single online game yet. Every time I try to join a match, it will either kick me back to the menu and tell me "You have lost connection to the host", or completely lock up the Xbox. I accidentally joined a co-op campaign game before that I had no problems with, but as for actual matches, I've had zero luck.

In my first game it was terrible. I only managed about 3 kills and could only buff teammates. I really hope they add some servers soon. 

I've had much better luck with freeplay than I did with campaign mode, you might try that if you're having latency issues

I am having no issues at all. Well only when the host migrates then thats about it. 

Super laggy here, unplayablle basically.Only way is to set my campaign settings to open for everyone and then the lag is bearable.

This game is unplayable.  What a colossal failure.

The first game I played when I launched the game for the first time was an absolute lagfest. The second was actually playable and a bit fun to be honest. After trying a few more matches 4/5 of them were unbearably laggy.

" @The_Laughing_Man: That's where I have the issues.  And I tested my own connection with some AssBro and worked fine. "

Had minor lag maybe twice. No major problems. Enjoying it quite a bit actually.

No problems here at all.

I have had hit & miss lag issues.  Some matches are great and some are bad, one so bad I started to feel sick.

None cause im playing it on PC BOOM!

Yes, the lag is terrible!

Lots of lag online, and a little lag here and there when playing solo. Bots are also dumb as rocks and the audio keeps dropping out on me.

call me crazy but if you haven't, try installing the game to the hard drive. i noticed last night when ever the game started to lag the 360 disc drive went fucking nuts. i installed the game and had few issues afterwards. a hick up here or there but for the most part smooth.  i only got to test this with a few matches last night before passing out so i could have just gotten lucky. give it a shot and see what happens. 

I have only played twice online with some friends and didn't notice any lag, i only have 2 complaints about this game.

1. The texture popping at the beginning, but that isn't a big deal i mean even gears has it yet nobody complains about that, but they will shit on brink for it.
2. The bots, not so much the enemy bots because they seem to peel my head back in 2 shots after about 2 minutes but my teammate bots are completely fucking useless, they rarely kill enemies the only bots that are helpful are the medic ones.

Other then that the game runs fine, it's fun and i don't see all this lag or bugs everyone is harping on.

 The lag drives me to the BRINK of despair! 

Yeah....pretty much unplayable.   I think if I could get into a decent match I might actually enjoy the game some.  There are moments when I was having fun as a heavy engineer with a LMG, putting out mines and turrets.   Then the lag kicks in and there is no fun left to be had.  Only way I can really play any is to go solo with bots, which really sucks because I hate playing with bots.

Other than a few matches, it's completely unplayable.

Have you tried freeplay? That seems to work. Sadly the lag is bad. NOrmaly I wait till the host drops and I am made the host. And since I have FIOS i host great.  "

Yup...tried all the modes.  Haven't tried changing to "competition" settings or whatever it's called.  I've seen some people saying that can help.  Matches usually start out ok, but after a minute or two lag starts to come in bursts, then it's a struggle from then on. Once the lag gets bad enough all the human players just leave.  Last couple matches I tried to get in before I quit  there was no players.  It just kept putting me in matches by myself with a bunch of bots.

Again it mostly is people with crap connections being picked to host.  "
