Fasten up your loading times / fix online lag

This might be common knowledge to the veterans, but I hope this helps some of the new players like me.

Today I decided to give the oh so forgotten Tekken 6 a go again and couldn't stand the loading times of it, being used to the fast loads of Soul Calibur and I thought there must be a way to fix these.

So I googled "Tekken 6 loading times" and came upon a solution for these. The solution being so simple as installing the Tekken 6 game data via the game options into the PS3 HDD drive. The load times got cut from 10-15s to about 5s.

This is where Soul Calibur crossed my mind. I thought "maybe this will fix the loading times of Soul Calibur too" and gave it a go.

The load times between mode selection, character lobby, character creatinion swapping parts and all got faster. Now I thought "this must be stupid, but maybe it fixed the online play by some degree too..?"

To my surprise the fights between 4 bar and 5 bar connections got near offline gameplay, but it didn't remove the start of the round lag or after round "communicating" lags.

This might sound like a fairytale, but I'd like you to give it a try.

PS. no "cool story bro" comments thank you.
 
I never thought that installing the game would reduce lag time, however I can understand how it would. I'll give it a try on my 360 tomorrow and report any noticeable differences.
 
Just want to note that it should be "quicken" not "fasten".

Other than that, though, I'm pretty sure installing a game doesn't do anything for lag.

Yeah... fasten up your seat belts anyone? I feel so dumb.

And most likely I probably just faced people from neighboring countries.

But yeah, I'm happy with the faster loading times at least (love to build CaS).
 
Ive had sc4 on my harddrive (360) since we were able to do that.

Jaxel had pointed out then that load times are much faster, and they are!! But I dont see a difference in lag time. I think its the same!
