I have been playing online for about 8 years and I have never encountered this problem. As soon as I started playing Far Cry 3 Multiplayer I have for no reason died by suicide 10 to 20 times a game. I can just be sitting there and just die out of the blue and it says "You Committed suicide and can't be revived". Now I have looked into it on my end and it is not me. I play multplayer on Black Ops, Halo 4, Halo 3 and Modern Warfare. There is not a problem with any of them whatsoever. My NAT is completely open so it is not that. I have a very fast internet connection so this is just a puzzle. I have only seen 5 or 6 people that have seen this problem and they do not know what it is either. What could it possibly be. It is not on my end so it has to be either Ubisoft Game servers or a conflict with my ISP to Ubisoft Game Server. This is frustrating because the multiplayer on this game but this makes it almost unplayable. Anyone have a clue?????? Is there a game update coming soon?
Thanks
Happened to me a few times but can never remember exactly where. Next time it happens, note what position you are on in the map. I know that in the map editor, if you lower the ground level beyond a certain point, you will instantly commit suicide if you walk below that "bottom limit". Maybe this is a problem with some of the maps? That they are too close to the bottom limit of the map, and when you touch the bottom, you instantly die. Just a theory but its probably wrong.
I solved the problem so for future reference if anyone has this problem you most likely have a corrupted game save or the 7 mb title dowload. I deleted both and it works perfectly now. If you happen to have 2 game saves it is likely that one of them is corrupt or was turned off when your electricity went off at some point. If you have 2 saves make sure a delete oldest one first and if that does not work you will have to delete them all and start fresh. Hope that helps.
Ok so I spoke to soon. It is very strange because I after thinking I solved it and not having had the problem for an entire evening of playing it came back today. I noticed that after playing last night the xbox would not turn off and the glowing green/yellow start/power button was slowly blinking on and off and it was locked up. I had to unplug the xbox from the wall. I am wondering if that had anything to do with it? My xbox is fine there are no issues with it heat,,,,hard drive etc,,,,It only has a problem when I play Far Cry 3 Multiplayer. This game is so fun. I hope they solve this problem soon. Bummmmmmer
OK .......I know I am not the only one having this problem. Could someone with ubisoft technical service please explain what is going on and suggest other troubleshooting methods other than the ones already tried. and explained in this post. Too bad because I think it has the potential to be a better multiplayer than black ops but when it is that frustrating people leave and don't come back. After all that is why people pay 60 a year for xbox live and a thousand for cable so we can do things like play online
