    Why does MP feel so heavy?

    Anyone else noticing this? The bikes feel extremely heavy and slow, and somewhat easy obstacles are made quite a bit more difficult by the lack of acceleration and grip. Is this caused by connecting to certain hosts when your connection isn't very good?

    I've noticed this also....I've wondered if it's due to some lag or what not, affecting the timing of our inputs that gets shifted a bit,....

    I feel really bad for the other people if I'm the host of the game. My connection is terrible

    In supercross this could be caused by the different camera view. In trials it probably is lag.

    I haven't noticed it.... but I smoke a lot so my brain probably lets a few things slip by unnoticed.

    Lag is the number one thing that makes me not want to play multiplayer games I wish it would just let us race on our own, and then tabulate the scores at the end..

    I haven't noticed any differencesin the physics in multiplayer. I actually thought this game was lag free in a way, if another player is lagging you may see him skipping through the track but on his screen I assume he is not affected. The timer still counts in whole seconds and so does yours, he will still reach the finish line in real time. Although sometimes I do notice a massive framerate skip at the beginning of a track, like at the start of Oil Rig Run.

    Not sure if its related but from what I've seen.. Nobody who plays multiplayer has anything above two bar for connection speed.. I hate to think thats accurate, but I see it on call of duty aswell. Maybe alot of users running dial up or slower phone based type connections..
