Online issues

jgarrett · 10-20-2008, 10:11 PM

Is anyone else having problems getting ranked games to work? It doesn't matter if I try to get a quick ranked match or a custom ranked match, I keep getting the "This game could not started please refer to the online FAQ or website".

Is this just happening to me or is everyone having these issues?

It's an absolute rip off that this online stuff is not working correctly yet.

I had no problem waiting a bit for these isues to be fixed, but not for 3 weeks !!

I was able to play a few games online on Saturday night and it seemed like things were finally all set, but then yesterday I could not get on at all again

Sooooo basically Saturday night was just a BIG !! teeze to make you even more frustrated

What a JOKE !!

This is part of the reason I rented this game. If I can't play online, I can't purchase the game.

Also, are the lobbies missing from this years games? I can't find anywhere to join a lobby.

Sorry if this has been mentioned before. I usually only get to access the site at work, so I can't really look at all the threads.

You should just keep trying and it will eventually find someone you can connect to. This is the exact same connection problem which as been in 2k games since I started playing them in 2k6.

This game is still not fixed? MLB was never fix online so why is this going to be any different?

Sweet another year of live.

LOL I'm not suprised their servers still aren't working.

They have bigger things to worry about like working on their "2K Insider".

I got 2k9 the day it came out and the online issues made me put it on the shelf. I just tried earlier today thinking that they must be corrected by now right? Still cant play a 5v5 game without uncontrollable lag....Soo disappointing. How can 2k as a company allow these major issues to go on for aslong as they have????

i have played several with virtually no lag. what i read somewhere (and it does for some odd reason) that seems to work is during the part where you are warming up by yourself, have your mic disconnected. then once the game starts (after tip off) connect your mic.

I've been playing online the past 2 days with virtually no lag whatsoever. It was a mess at first but it appears they've corrected the problems?
