I don't have any router. If i play multiplayer through internet it's only custom games because i don't have patience to wait for skirmish or pantheon games to get into the lobby. So in custom games connecting to lobby is ok (could be faster) but when you play the game, very often when i get killed i have some strange connection problems. Often somebody leaves (don't know if the cause is rage quitting or connection problems) and because of it sometimes in the end of the game you play 1vs3.

So multiplayer experience is still not the best one for me, so i play single most of the time.

I'm having a lot of issues getting into games.  The connection box is very useful and tells us who's connected to who, however, there almost always seems to be one person who can't connect to anyone.  This then means that the system sits there and waits and waits and waits for the one person to connect.

Normally what happens is that after 2-5 minutes most of the people have quit the game and tried again.  This means that you have to keep canceling the match and trying again in hope that everyone can connect.

 

Would it be possible to boot 'un-connected' players from teh game after say 30 - 60 seconds of trying and replace them with someone else?
