    I did expect some official servers running for the official maps. Ghost recon was a good multiplayer game let down by server setup. Alot of my friends said they would still be playing ghost if the servers were stable and dedicated. Also, how come assassins creed gets dedicated when the singleplayer is themain aspect of the game.
    I am only pointing out games i know are affiliated with EA or the uplay system.

    Also, the multiplayer is still good just let down by the lack of dedicated servers, its like giving someone really good soup then handing them a fork.

    Those issues sound rather troubling, but right now the biggest issue with Multiplayer is the broken matchmaking system. It's impossible to find lobbies with other players.

    This needs fixed ASAP

    same issue i found that for some reason disabling upnp in the router settings and opening the ports manually helps a little. its still bugged though. i get ~40-70 ms in other games (like bf3, far cry 2, crysis, cod, ...) which is quite ok but in far cry 3 the ping is always on red and feels like 300+ ms i cant help my connection, i got 2k dsl which is the fastest i can get where i live -.-
    also, the recommended setup says you need a 512 kbps or better connection. shouldnt that mean that you can play normally with a 512 kbps connection?? definitely NOT the case!

    The stupid lobby always chooses the people who have 1 kb upload to host


    Or people who are far away

    5 american players

    1 Chinese player

    Chinese player hosts.
