Default can someone from EIDOS or IO answer this please?

when a person hosts a game are they set up as a designated server or does this game actually have a server or since the game is xbox live enabled does it use the xbox server?

because evertime i try and host a game and amazingly enough 3 other people join the lobby ot always take sometimes up to 5 minutes before everyone is actually in the game and most of the time everyone lags out before the session is finish so we don't even get a game played or get to keep the money from the heists?

this is becoming very annoying since ive tryed playing over 50 games now and have actualy only been able to fully complete 1.

or is this just another bug hat needs to fixed with the patch that we will probably never see?

Could be that you have a too slow internet connection.

i have high speed cable, and the PC version of this game is the ONLY game i have ever had problems with.

i can host a 14 player game on rainbow six vegas with no problems but can't seem to host a 4 player game with this game so im pretty sure its not my conection.

Kane & lynch does not have any bugs, only "features".

High difficulty installing.
Geting tired loading, and placing you pc in some sort of "sleep mode".
High difficulty aiming depending on keyboard or mouse.
Slowmotion multiplayer.

If you dont already have this challenging game get it in a store near you for half the price. Why half price, cause its super challenging and FUN.

Seriously when is the patch coming?

When I first started playng, a few months ago. I had the problem where we would sit the "waiting for players" menu for sometimes up to 15 minutes!

I'm pretty sure they took care of that!

Also, If you tried to host a 5 round match, everyone would get booted out except the host!

I'm sure IO is on top of their game, but what they really need to look at is more Multiplayer Content. There's times where I almost feel like returning the game, just because there's not much more you can do. And my reign of terror on the Leaderboards has subsided, since i've changed my gamertag.

Sounds to me like everybody has the PC version. The Xbox version has some problems, but few. If you have the Xbox version, and you get booted out inbetween rounds or people get disconnected from your game when you're hosting, it's because the host of the game's connection can't handle everybody in there. It depends on a lot of things like the location of the people you're playing with. Sometimes, I'll play with my homie from Australia and he'll be booted out of certain games while I remain in them. It's pretty much just the quality of connection.
