i played a level today that featured alot of objects from the christmas theme pack and it lagged hardcore. this was due to the fact that i did not own the pack. i didn't think nothing of it at first but then i realized that this will probably be the same in future packs and add-ons. which got me thinking with tommorrows mgs pack. if i create a level with the paint ball gun and someone who doesn't have it plays it will it lag for them? hopefully someone understands what im trying to say cuz im very sleepy and should go to bed. but yeah im concerned cuz i know there will be future packs i wont buy and i don't wanna play user created levels where it just lags. if this is a huge problem hopefully they fix it in the future.

I don't have the Christmas pack either. I'll play one of those levels later and see if it lags for me.

i seriously doubt it was due to you not owning the pack. it's going to download the necessary objects to your harddrive no matter if you own them or not and then treat them exactly the same. it's not like it's constantly streaming objects that you don't own. if that was the case it would do that for user created objects as well i would think. if you don't own them, it will simply delete them afterward (or perhaps keep a local copy to avoid having to download them later but just not give you access to them) what level was this specifically, do you remember?

Yeah, there's no reason you not having the pack should create lag. Essentially, you have the pack, you just can't use it. I find it far more likely something else in the level or your internet was creating lag.

I played a level that used the Christmas pack items. It was an awful level but it didn't lag at all even though I don't have the Christmas pack.

ok so the level is by the creator montevista. its his christmas one. to all the responses im still certain it is due to the excessive amount of dlc that he has in this level that i do not have. my internet connection is fine. every other level runs smoothly. even all the comments were saying that it was lagging for them. please check out the level and tell me your thoughts.

Like I said before, it's not the dlc. It's something in the level. I just tried it, and it lags a lot for me as well, and I have the dlc. Something he put in the level is causing massive lag.
