Nah, the server does it. Not all the time though.

Yeah when I played last night, I was shooting a guy full on and he turned around and started shooting and he got the kill. WTF.

My ps3 has been randomly been freezing when trying to connect online. Has anyone else had this issue? I hope its just a bug.

Also what so good about headshots? What does it unlock? I've been playing a few 1v1 games and ppl keep asking to do headshot.

Each gun has a headshot quota, you get new patterns for the gun the more you get.

It seems like it automatically matchmakes with others of the same clan tag.

What makes you think that? Interesting...

That's a good idea, not sure if they've actually implemented it though, the problem is the matchmaking software only takes a sample of 25 random games at a time to look at when you want to play online.

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any "master list" for it to use when looking for the best possible game for you - which would be virtually impossible anyway when there are 200k players online and dynamic player-hosted servers being used.

It does do it especially at night when you play team deathmatch.

wow, cool i should try it then

walker_2003 · 19th November 2009, 5:28 PM

there is no match making by clan tag, its just alot of aussies use [AUS] so aussies can stick together, if they join same games its thanks to low latency between you or lucky draw of the hat.

Thats it, I am sick of getting lag owned in MP. I have finished the game in Veteran and was hoping to keep it for a while to have a good multiplayer game. Got to level 22 and I now refuse to play it until the fix MP with australian servers!!!!

i think you mean regional game searching. but yeah me too.
I reached level 30, then after I emptied half a clip into the back of someone's head then he turned around and killed me, I quit MP for good until they fix it!

Not having too many problems with lag personally...

Even all yellow connections seem to be fine (and even some red too), and since the latest patches have come out, I've been paired more and more with Australian hosts.
