Jay Jay Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 Everytime i try and join a game it either says 'your connection to the host has been lost.' or it takes about 2 mins on the loading screen the say the above. I've tested the connection on the system thing on the dashboard and everything seems to be connected and working fine.

Nick Garland Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 Mine seems to be working fine, btw for the guy who hasnt got it yet, it is amazing. Had it since last wednesday, played online a couple of times just enjoying the single player at the moment.As for your connection problem try turning off console, resetting your router and broadband modem, test connection, then try. Me and a friend of mine had this problem on PGR3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RicH_87 Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 I've had those messages a couple of times, but i put it down to trying to join an almost full game.i.e trying to join and someone else steals the place so you can't get in.maybe try joining a game with just 1 person in, or try joining an on-line co-op game and see if there is still a problem.if there is, it's likely to be your firewall or some kind of setting on your router. sometimes it conflicts with just one other player and so bounces you back out.as for the game, it's good yeah, i played 6 hours of co-op with my brother so it can't be that bad, but it's not as good a game as halo 1 was when that was released. I think it's getting slightly over hyped because of the graphics. the control system and amount of weapons just feels too restrictive for me...

Olly C Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 Hmmm...my gears of war should be here today....ill see if i get the same problem.I always find when i have trouble like like that..im downloading shit on net or sumthing??What about Project 8 man?? Thought you had zero funds.. Its a sweet game this time round and seriously hard! I've got Gears of War too, got it on release and had this whole week off work to play it but I only played the first mission that night and have been playing Project 8 instead its good.Definately looks amazing though we'll have to get us T-F lot together for a game some night Olly.

Olly C Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 dammit i wanted project 8 too but i couldn't really afford one game never mind 2.ahh well.If you see it cheap online or on eBay or something definately pick it up, it is really good and seems to have very good lastability because of how god damned hard some of the missions are, theres loads to do and the graphics and motion capture stuff creates pretty amazing realism but still keeps the fun of the usual Tony Hawk games! The Live Demo's nothing near the real game either I was pretty put off the game playing that Demo to be honest so don't go by that.Olly.

SemteX Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 (edited) This a problem with GoW atm. When you go to look for servers, press X to refresh the list as soon as you see it searching for them. You may need to press it once or twice so that servers appear behind the searching icon. Then just play one.Anyone fancy a game? maybe some Co-op Edit: If you don't quite understand what i meant then goto http://forums.xbox.com/7982465/ShowPost.aspxAlso my tag is DOA UK. And everyone should download the RB6 vegas online demo! So much fun. Edited November 24, 2006 by SemteX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Garland Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Project 8 is insane. Some of the S!ck challenges are such things as getting all the classic goals in one 2 minute run, which is hard if you mess one up, got to start again.
