Question for those with IP disconnects

Post by pk500 »

Hi all:
<BR>
<BR>I´m reading at various forums, including this one, about disconnects while playing Inside Pitch. Luckily, I haven´t experienced any yet.
<BR>
<BR>For those suffering disconnect problems, are you using a router with your connection? Using custom soundtracks? Any other settings that may cause the disconnects?
<BR>
<BR>Just curious, as I´m trying to pinpoint the settings I need to avoid. Sort of like banning all explosive devices in Ghost Recon on XBL, as explosives cause a ton of lag.
<BR>
<BR>Thanks,
<BR>PK

Yeah, I´m experiencing them PK.
<BR>
<BR>Spooky and I started three games last night and only finished one. Who knows why? I´m behind a router, but it shoudln´t make a difference because I do pretty well on the rest of the games.
<BR>
<BR>I wonder if the whole "dolby surround" is an issue in this game like it was in NHL. I´ll have to check that when I get home this evening. I move my system from my entertainment system which has surround sound to my room to play online so I´m sure I have that enabled...guess I´ll have to try disabling it and see how that goes.
<BR>
<BR>When we gonna play man? I have yet to play you in ANYTHING on XBL. It´s a damn shame man.

<BR>I´m game for an IP showdown. Look for me online. I´ll look for you!
<BR>
<BR>P.S.: I don´t use custom soundtracks or special Dolby sound. I also don´t use a router. Not sure if that provides any clue as to the disconnects. I lean more toward the audio as a culprit than the router.
<BR>
<BR>Take care,

I was thinking the same thing. It didn´t occur to me until I saw this post, so I´ll give it a try tonight and see what happens.

I´m having major disconnect issues with this game (Yes, I threw it across the room last night, but it still plays)...
<BR>
<BR>I am behind a router, but I´m not using custom soundtracks or alternate camera angles.
<BR>
<BR>I have not investigated the sound issue, however, so I´m excited to see if that could in fact be the culprit. My box is connected to a dolby digital system, so I know I have this turned on, though I often just play through my TV´s speakers.
<BR>
<BR>So, to confirm. Is there an in-game setting or preference for Dolby that needs to be disabled? Or do I need to turn it off from the Xbox dashboard...thanks!

Xbox dashboard Sport. Supposedly that was the issue guys were having with NHL back when that came out.
<BR>
<BR>It fixed it for me in NHL so I hope it does the same for IP.

I play with a router, Dolby on, and alternate angles and have had no problems. I don´t think that is it. <BR><BR><font size=1>[ This message was edited by: snate on 29-05-2003 16:44 ]</font>

I play with the same setup as snate, and it has not caused me any problems. I did have problems on Fri and Sat late at night this past weekend, but that was unrelated to the game, it was my cable internet signal that was going on and off.

I had my first disconnect tonight while playing PK (besides HipE´s connection issues).
<BR>
<BR>For the record, PK was tossing a shutout vs. LA with the Unit in the 6th when we got tossed <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon_eek.gif"> <BR><BR><font size=1>[ This message was edited by: Leebo33 on 29-05-2003 23:08 ]</font>
