I'm on 20MB Virgin Cable Broadband, in ping tests I generally get sub-30ms responses, and in other COD games, I get host a lot. However, in Black Ops, more often than not, I struggle to get a decent game where my connection feels right. Someone mentioned that it is customers who use Virgin who are experiencing the majority of the lag issues, and I wondered if there is any truth to this. Certainly when I come up against a lobby of guys from here - whom I know are on BT - the difference between what I see and what the killcam shows is ridiculous. In most cases from my perspective I will start firing my gun at them and get hit markers, but when I look at the killcam, their view shows that I haven't even started firing and they've already killed me.
I thought it would be interesting to have a poll to see if there's any consistency in responses around ISPs. I'm finding Black Ops a tightrope between fun and frustration at the moment, I really hope they sort out the problems soon. Treyarch's level of support is looking promising so far - fingers crossed this gets addressed as well so I and others experiencing this problem can enjoy the game the way it's intended to be enjoyed.
