I have just got it and went straight online, it's really confusing and I dont know how to talk on there.
Does it support Voice Communication?
Posted on SWB website - : Every game I see on the list has one or two red bars and red ping. Sometime there are a few with yellow ping but they are usually password protected rooms. EVERY room I join, I get the flashing network connection ICON for the entire time I play the game. My headset does not work and the lag makes the game unplayable. I have no router and can play other online games (SOCOM and SOCOM2) with no performance problems (even right after logging off of SWBF with the flashing icon.) I understand the game is new but I have this problem every time I try to play regardless of the time of day or the room. My SBC DSL upload and download speeds always show in the higher end of the DSL speed scale and my PC is turned off when I play. My PS2 is plugged directly into my modem which is about 3 inched from it and the rest off my house is wireless......ANY suggestions or idea?

I've been experiencing the exact problems as this guy.
The main reason I think is your upload speed of your connection. In order to have a full 8v8 game you need atleast a T1 connection in order to upload enough and have as less lagg as possible.
I have a 512K connection and upload 256K, I can only host for four players when I play, which is crap!
Its quite hard to find a decent room with good hosting that your friends can join. But hopefully, soon enough something will be done about it.
