Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 - Online Update

Well, I figured that the online was messed up for at least that night (would be weird to have me be the ONLY person playing on Live at that time,) so I gave it another shot.

And, as I suspected, the lag was still there. It wasn't as bad for SOME games, but others it was a few minutes before everything settled enough to where I could play. The dots, still, don't mean much before you go into a game.

And, there are plenty of pricks who host games. About 4 or 5 games, I was kicked within the first couple of minutes (one game, I was kicked before it had shown I connected on my screen.) That just really brings down the experience when people can not give anyone a chance. Later, one of the people who had kicked me, invited me to their game (I guess too many people bailed), but I found out that those same people would kick anyone who pissed them off enough... glad I was on their team.

But, needless to say, it was still fun. A couple of matches of conquest, I was holding at least a 4:1 Kill-Death ratio (one of them, I went 9-0.) The online is nowhere near the stability of Vegas 1's online, but it is a definite start.

And, just as a note to any of you who want to reach Elite without any cheating, total conquest can do it (400 XP to the team who completes the uplink + xp from kills, and lives are set to "unlimited).
