It doesn't go by the majority.  It uses percentages.

If 4 people out of 10 vote for Explosives and the other 6 vote for Near/Far, the chances are 40% for Explosives and 60% Near/Far.  Explosives can still be selected, but it has less of a chance.

That's why you should vote smart.  If 3 out of 10 vote for Explosives, 2 of 10 vote for Human, 1 of 10 votes for Drudge, Trust, Near/Far, Close Combat, and Long Range, then Explosives has the best chance of being picked.  If it looks like Explosives will win, vote for the set with the second-most votes in hopes of beating out Explosives.

man i just don't understand what you people are talking about concerning lag.  I have ZERO lag in this game.  You don't have to lead your shots AT ALL.  This game seems to adjust for laggy connections by making a laggy player "skip" around.  So even though they are lagging, you still shoot where you see them and it will hit them, they just skip around instead of not appearing to lag.  But other than skipping players, I can aim right at them in EVERY GAME.

I honestly think lag is just the popular excuse for doing poorly or not liking an online game these days.

And it is quite funny that you had to remove mp40 from your argument about MoH having balanced weapons. LOL.  You might also want to remove explosives/bazookas too.  Hell, why don't we do that with everygame that has unbalanced weapons.  We can just ignore the unbalanced weapons and claim the rest are balanced. At least in Conduit, each weapon set offers weapons that don't cause unbalanced games.  And the most unbalanced weapons in each set tend to be the ones that spawn only once per map eliminating a lot of the unbalance.

I am not claiming Conduit is perfect, because we all know the online system blows.  But what I am saying, is that if Conduit had MoH's lobby system, and everything else was taken as is in both games, we wouldn't even be having this discussion.  The rest of the aspects of Conduit are head and shoulders above MoH and the only downfall is the matchmaking system.  All we need is a company to do what Conduit has done and also have the balls to do what EA did with the lobby, and we would all be happy.

I totally disagree with your assertions that MoH was better in any way other than the lobby.  The lag was worse/terrible, and the weapons were unbalanced (assuming you are willing to look at ALL the weapons).  And the fact that you could choose what weapons you wanted just made for tons of public games full of only mp40s and zooks.  In order to get around those unbalanced weapons issues, you had to create your own game limiting the weapons, and you can do that in Conduit as well.  So that is no advantage.

And as for voting in Conduit, sure I get crappy weapon sets everyonce in a while, but I really don't get them much.  Near/far is easily the most popular, but I love that set anyway.  It has the best weapons that most people would choose anyway so it doesn't bother me that it shows up all the time.  I mean seriously, it has shotty, deatomizer, and strike rifle.  That is basically the same as just letting people pick which weapons they want to use.  I only get explosives every once in a while and it seems to get less and less as time passes for me.  Maybe I just get in good games or something, but I am happy with how the voting usually turns out.

What I meant was the lag was consistent in MoH in my previous posts.

Like I said, I have no lag in this game.  So would I rather consistent lag shooting by leading EVERY target by 4 feet or would I like a game with no lag at all? Hmm.  Heck, I even prefered the lag in CoD to MoH's because at least I didn't have to lag shoot all the time, and all I had to do was look at the connection level of my enemies to see which ones I need to lag shoot for.  I guess I just HATE lag shooting and will prefer a game without much of it over one with a consistent but MAJOR lag anyday.  I just didn't like how determining who was good in MoH had nothing to do with gaming at all, but rather who was the best lag shooter.  I got really sick of that and that was the major reason why I stopped playing that game months before CoD came out.

Would you please stop by-passing the censor?  Dropping the F-bomb in every other sentence doesn't make you look cool.

i love near/far but explosives is definitely more popular in the matches i keep getting put in. and the lobby system would make this game better but it doesn't have that, it has this g4y matchmaking system, which takes away a lot of the fun when i want to play. it is getting better as the days go by but still, wtf HVS/Sega.

anyway, one example of weird "lag" was when i died yesterday and respawned i was immediately killed by one shotgun blast. the problem is, there was no one around and i hadn't even fully spawned yet, i was in my teams base and there were no enemies around. i know cuz i was staring at the radar after i died. i think it was from a shot fired before i died and didn't register until i was spawning again. of course, i have no proof, but whatever.

i'm not giving up on this game or calling it crappy but i am kinda let down so far after waiting so long for a good shooter to replace MoH. the wii is perfect for shooters (as long as graphics don't matter to you) and i just don't understand why we can't have a good one like on PS360. they can add all the bells and whistles the other system's games have but choose not to. and wiispeak is the most retarded thing yet. why didn't they just make it a **** headset? stupid nintendo  Angry

anyway, you wanna play later? lol

yeah I hear ya lak.  I don't wanna sound like the flaw I see in this game (i.e. the matchmaking) is minor.  It really sucks.  It is annoying and takes forever and at times will make me stop playing or not play at all that day.  I definitely see where you guys are coming from there.  And then you throw on top of it the fact that half the time I get into a game already in progress, the screen is black and I have to wait for the next map, and I just wanna pull my hair out.  My thoughts about this game are mostly based on the game itself, once you are in game and playing.  I haven't really had that weird lag issue like you have before, but I know lag pisses me off so I understand your frustration.

And I will have to see what the wife has in mind this evening, but I might be up for playing later. Afro

Well I'll certainly say this much....With CoD and MOH I could play for 2 hours easily, but with TC....I play at a max of 1 on public and most of that is in the Streets with Explosives. It was fun playing private games but FN Boo's Cher music and someone's fan made me want to tear my ears out. XD It was funny at first but then I noticed WiiSpeak automatically made itself louder than the in-game music and even then it wasn't fully clear. Plus you'd hear the echos when someone said something and you'd hear it from another person's TV.

I think the problem with most is that they hyped this game up WAY too much...and when we finally played it, there was nothing really worth hyping up. It's just an average game and we were expecting a LOT more because of the whole "built from the ground up specifically for the wii!"

Actually, there is a rule.  Go read the board announcements or one of the topics about the filter.

If there wasn't a rule, there wouldn't be a filter.

Same here. I have NEVER had lag problem. Yes there is some people that jump around everywhere but you just have to shoot where you see them. This game is really not bad. MoH was garbage. You guys are just saying it's better because you played it for so long and that's where most of us met each other and you can't get that. If you hate playing in public matches so much then get some more friends and play privates. That's what I do every day. My rank is barely even up because I just play private games the whole time. When you host a private there usually is no one jumping around. You can avoid explosives and actually enjoy the game.
I don't know what you guys see cause I see nothing wrong with this game other then the public games, which has nothing to do with clan wars. And that's all I really care about.
