Has any one else had trouble connecting to ranked matches?

every time i try it'll search for an opponent then give me an error code (86070) with a message saying something like “lost connection during data transmission”

because of it i've failed to play anyone online

[EasyCure]

I was finally able to play against someone online (caliban) but ranked matches still don't work for me. Is anyone having this problem at all?

[Caliban]

I'm having alot of connection issues too.

I was in the middle of a ranked match and all of a sudden I got a connection error...durrr.

I'm surprised I didn't disconnect when I was playing against EasyCure, although I saw him going online and I invited him but apparently I got an error saying that the data wasn't transmitted, so I logged off and then logged back in and EasyCure had sent me an invitation...we played and I got owned.

I was surprised to notice that even when you are just playing with the single-player options (like the challenges) the game is apparently connecting, well at least from what I can tell from the "Nintendo WiFi USB Connector" window.

I'm getting that a lot too. Funny, I had no trouble last night no diconnect barely any lag (ended with a winning streak of 12-2 with 1 disconnect after a laggly game) and and now I get disconnected happen every other match and only when I'm winning (today it's 4-16 after 5+ hours). Nintendo really needs cheater report option in their online game and ban people if the get reported as cheater too much.......  

[NWR_pap64]

I haven't played online yet, but I'm wondering in the friend roster page is it supposed to say "connected" till the system registers both friends or is that an error?

[stevey]

It say connecting till the system registers both friends, then says not connected (off line), connected (online), or busy (in a match).

i put my Strikers disc in and when i clicked the games channel on the wii's main menu it did an automatic system update. has this happened to anyone else with this game? Strikers is the first new game i bought since RE4 about a month ago and its the first time an update like that popped up that i couldn't decline.

Does anyone know what this update was for or what its done to my system? The wii settings still says i'm running v2.2U. also, if it helps i'm in the US

The same update happen with Super Paper Mario, it basically an anti-import update doesn't do much. There more about it in striker manual

[therat]

strikers multiplayer is awesome, im so drunk, playin all night, smack talking,k shwas great, 1vs 1 is incredualable. even friens who cant lpay games was good, but i stil beat him cause im awesone, i love it like a dogs red rocket loves me medianpukebridhgesfallmediaswarmsgayshit

[Smash_Brother]

I've had an immense amount of fun with the online play, but I still get so little time to play it that it's disheartening.

It figures that when Nintendo FINALLY delivers on awesome online play, I have too much going on to delve into it.

And yes, ranked matches are pretty unreliable right now, but I suspect that's due to server overload since the game is so new.

[optimisticlimbo]

I picked this up last night  and jump right into multiplayer.  4 hours later, we thought the clock was lying.  online was even fun, though we weren't coordinated enough to take on the ranked ladder.  I need to add people from here after work today.

hehe honestly i was nervous about playing against anyone from here since im not that good. i dont even own the original strikers, i played it at a friends house - fell in love with it - thought about getting my own - heard about a sequel and decided to wait. i've only played a handful of times.

for the record though my first win against Caliban was all due to a perfect megastrike. i nailed 6 shots and we went back in frotn from there till the very last second when i somehow scored again. so its not like i owned you that bad, it was just luck with the megastrike :-D

anyway its comforting to hear im not the only one having issues with ranked matches. its dissapointing though taht i cant climb the ladder but atleast i know i can still face off against you guys. i already have a few of you on my list and plan on addnig more so i can enjoy some online play.

Edit: i don't know how those smileys got in here

[Caliban]

I think all of these connection mishaps has to do with the fact that the servers of which Nintendo chose to use aren't prepared for the massive horde of players wanting to play this game online.

[EasyCure]

They better fix this soon i'm tired of not playing ranked games

[Mashiro]

Well hopefully they will get the kinks out of their online server with Strikers and be ready for Brawl.

[MLS_man_64]

Does anyone else think its to hard to score without using a special move?  I liked the original better so far  It felt more realistic to me.

[EasyCure]

No i can score just fine without them.

ARGH!!!

Now i can't play against you guys because i keep getting the same error messages. I tried 5 times to connect with neothunder and it failed each time. This is getting to be annoying

[Caliban]

I accepted your invite and then a few seconds later it just disconnected, but then right after that I went for a random game and it worked perfectly.

Who can we send an email to about these issues, Nintendo, Next Level Games?
This game isn't even represented on the nintendowifi.com site, why? Who's monitoring our game afterall?  

[EasyCure]

This is ridiculous!

now i can't connect to the server at all...

/swear words

[Plugabugz]

The problems are all down to all the hoardes of americans surging to play it at once. Patience! This happened at the european launch.

[jakeOSX]

i got this game yesterday, and it is great. mario could kick beckhams ass (but zidane would probably give him a run)

i did get online, and got beat, but still working on technique.

what's everyone's team strategy? i'm still on defaults...

[stevey]

Gah m#$%&*##$%ing #&^*&%#*!

Has anyone else having their stat erased? 13 win gone, as if yesterday never happen!  

[EasyCure]

i wouldn't know i don't have stats yet

[Nemo]

Is there a way to turn off those 'power shots' or whatever they're called, when you have to point the remote at the screen to block a rapid succession of shots? I think they're really cheap/lame.

[EasyCure]

Complete some of the challenges to unlock cheats. One of then gives you just that.

you can only use them in domination mode though, that means you have to put up with it in cup tournaments as well as ranked matches

[MLS_man_64]

What is the best strategy to use to score, besides the power/special shots?
