Aw that sucks man. What speed internet you got?
I only have 1.5Mbit. I have the lowest signal on most US games but it doesn't lag much at all.
Of course the AU servers are way better to be on but its not very often that you get one of those.
We have been having organised nights that we play on so if you stick around you'll be sure to see the next one.

i can usually get onto aussie servers most nights,

it just means i have to quite a few US based games until i stumble onto an AU game.

for me, lag sometimes is good and sometimes is bad on US servers. Somedays i can shoot and kill fine, others i can't hit anything even point blank!

well tell me about it I think that activision have got the worst online interface going , at least like fear etc you can see ping rates and local games I have a 1.5 Mbps connection , I can't get any better due to my area , and I have often felt like chucking the controller at the wall , when you plug a guy with a whole clip and he kills you with one fire burst , that sucks , so now I never play a game unless green bars are up !!!!
because whats the point in being hammered cause you are to slow due to latency?

Hey fluxburner. I play COD4 online almost every night for 2-3 hrs. Im level 26 now. Im a "mature" gamer like you. Im 36. I have had all the same issues as you with online tho sometimes I can go well in a US game - I came second yesterday in one with a 10 kill streak - I had 1 red ping and ALL the others had 4-5 greens. They must have been crapped off man LOL. Sometimes its good other times yep its shocking - s shots with a shottie in the back vs 1 dink with a pistol wtf!!!

Anyway mate I 'll add you we might meet up sometime. Cheers mate - cant let all these young guys beat us right!! LOL

online:- jusnickdo (Note clan tag for ususal guys in this site is AUF)

Hehe yeah flux I got lucky the other day and came second as the only red ping among a forest of tall greens too! I got an 11 streak, with the chopper and airstrike, but I was only a level 6 so I hadn't unlocked my bootcamp challenges yet!! Now I need to do it again to get the points for the challenges, but since then all I can manage is a 4 streak! Dammit!

Message noted Ozchap - well that 10 streak was with the grenade dropping perk - airstrike and chopper thing + with about 4 knifings as well. Good idea on us servers is use you UAV jammer perk and rush around with the knife - beats the lag a little. But one on one in a street your gonna die 8 times out of ten! that feels ughh!

Ok cool lads well I'll see you online sometime , will be doing COD most nights as it is gr8, I'll add you also as buddies, and maybe we can own the game a little instead of those yanks , not that I own much myself except for my controller I brought it with my own money too,(thats a dig for the younger crew lol)
Nice tip snicks on the UAV jammer witht he yanks, yep I get killed 8 outa 10 on the street too.
So this AUF tag whats that all about and is it a proper clan , as I see the point in being in a good one with headsets , I played a few us games and some of those guys, clans are unreal , all have headsets and are actuaully using them for spotting instead of singing!!!! I hate that !!!!! where's the mute fucntion ? *&&^%
How do you host a game do you just send out invites to ppl on your friends list?
Anyway learning as I go , I notice that everytime I pull out of a room it counts as a loss , needless to say
I have gained heaps of loss's
C U in the game
