Weird... I ended up hosting one game, and everyone (bar me, obviously) had a 1-bar connection - that would mean they were in the States/Europe, no? But I thought that was physically impossible ever since the matchmaking patch...
To test my theory if you're ever playing Barebones (Objective), Legendary, and I'm online, shoot me a PSN message and I'll try and join session - see if I still get dud ping that way
Sweet bonuses. You know what though, Japanese players are the politest players. As you may, or may not know, I am one(but heavily Americanized). When I hear them talking, they never talk smack.

You know what I think this is, noone in our region is playing it OR the very few people (less than 100) playing it have a full lobby, don't blame it on the matchmaker. It is just that there isn't a large enough population here to fill it all out.The Barebones matchmaker is officially fail, at least for me. I got dumped into a lobby where everyone was Japanese. wtf is up with that?
This is *only* happening with Barebones, too. Every other gametype is perfectly fine... now if only 402 would respond to my tweets
Oh god yes! I have been put in a couple of their lobbies and just went into shock, it is amazing how kind they are. And then I get into an American lobby....laters pigs.
While I feel more American(my citizenship says otherwise), it is in total contrast between those two nationalities. Here, in the States, it's like the manner, behavior goes right out the window. There are plenty of well mannered Americans playing the game, but we(
) feel like we are in the minority, because we have our mics turned off/unplugged to get away from that.
That is annoying, but I have no room to talk. Not one of my classes had anti-air in the slot 2. I've had AT4, but I usually used them on ground target by the time any air support went up. I've replaced them with RPG's, and I've never been able to hit any air support with it, dating back to CoD4. XDNow I remember why I only want to play Barebones. I prestiged last night, so I have nothing by way of guns or perks, and because I can't get into a good Barebones lobby I've had to resort to playing the "regular" (ie killstreaked) modes... and NOBODY is shooting down air support. NOBODY. Noone.
Because I'm only level 9 I don't have Cold-Blooded or Stingers, and because nobody is bothering to take down enemy air support I'm getting absolutely buttraped by Harriers and helis... as is everyone else on my team
Naw, I couldn't even get that close. By the time I got there, they'd be positioned off to the side, or like block ahead of where they were doing their deeds. I hope their GF's cheat on them and bring back STDs, I'm joking, not really.[empty space];3939282
Boosters place one another in two separate teams. They go hide in the quietest part of the map they can find, place the tactical insertion, start killing one of them over & over.
It almost seem like every boosters are retards, except this pair I ran into(I'm assuming it was just pair).
