I found this article after I made the thread asking about skill based match making and thought y'all might find it interesting.

interesting bama, but it could also explain why we can end up in such messed up lobbies, especially in lower populated playlists.

yeah, that article is the biggest pile of shit I've read in quite some time
"proximity" breaks down to georgraphical regions surrounding the player? Since when is f**king PR near me? I was hosting at first last night, and we were getting PR, Guatemala, and others in our lobby
they need to relearn what proximity actually means in a geographical sense...there's NO reason why I should be in a lobby with people from those nations

LMAO!!! I think that part of the problems is y'all always play HQ which is one of the least populated playlists. I play a lot of the mercenary playlist and have the same problem sometimes. I did put matchmaking on the "best" setting which did actually help. Most of the time it will give me host, but if I choose the "normal" or "any" setting then I get thrown into lobbies from all over the place. Note: DO NOT ever select "any" for your match making preference unless you enjoy lots of lag.

we were playing Moshpit last night, STILL got the same opponents
but then again, I did switch my settings from "best" to "normal", which could explain why we got a few decent lobbies
totally forgot about that
from what I've seen..."best" means "worst", "normal" means chance of anything, and "anything" means "shut your ps3 off"

Yeah, I wonder how being in a party effects the match making formula presented in the article.

here's a map with the 4 of us that were in a party last night (red dots), the grey dots represent the nations of players who were in our lobbies
where the f**k is THIS logic from?
do they really expect me to believe that there were no lobbies based out of NYC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Atlanta, or any other major city that would not have 3rd world nations dragging down the connection?
proximity my ass
Activision is so full of f**king bullshit, that whenever they vomit, it smells like someone taking a dump

I'm thinking the PR are just a proud bunch (not sure of what) and they all use the tag, no matter location.
Syn asked one where he lived yesterday and he said "I'm in New York"
But when we sit and try to decipher language, there's a problem. Russian and French should not be something we come across... ever.

The thing I loved most in the article was that connection quality was the THIRD filter used for matchmaking LMAO!
