Game speed issues

My friend and I like to play games on normal speed.  Tonight though it seems as if everything is running 2 to 4 (minimum) times faster.  Anyone having a simular issue?  We tried everyting to fix it (delete saves, check cache...).  Games speeds are fine in single player but when we try to do a multiplayer game it runs fast.

My dear chap, what an unfortunate experience! I do hope one of these enlightened forum dwellers has some useful advice for you!

Its pretty common for multiplayer to be like that for the first several minutes. I'm told it has to do that when one player's connection is slower, rather than lagging them it keeps him at normal speed and makes everyone else's faster. Eventually it tends to fix itself though.

The problem is both my friend and I are experiencing the fast game speed.

I know, I should have worded that better. It has something to do with correcting the different latency between players. Its not one player's fault per say. Its been widely complained about, there is nothing you can do but prepare for it, it will go away in time.

Ok.  Yeah it seemed to be better in about 15 minutes but I think it was still running faster than normal tonight.  Thanks for the info.
