A FIRESIDE CHAT WITH MICHAEL CONDREY – MATCHMAKING, REVERSE BOOSTING, TRICK SHOTTING AND THE LIKE

He says what you expect him to say but I don't buy it, dedicated to the best experience blah bleh ..marketing speak

 

With the geo-filter off you get matched with players all over the place with crap connections, with it on suddenly it's not so.  If the matchmaking system really worked the way he says you wouldn't see such a difference between gf on and off.

 

I think he forgot to add time into the equation, the matchmaking system will try to get you into a game as fast as possible so maybe it's matching you with the best connections it can during the few seconds it's searching but that's far from searching for the best connection.  Maybe they're worried all the ADD kids will start smashing their heads into the wall if they have to wait more than 20 seconds to get into a game ;P

Deffo raddy , like i have said before all the old titles play so well in comparison, the odd bad game here and there but on the whole P2P work's so much better, as long as the host is the only person on his/her network (Netduma users dont count ;) )

 

If i join a lobby and that game ends and the host drops out it usualy picks me so the duma does its stuff for everyone, good times.

 some players have experienced fringe cases like being matched with someone in another country.  

 

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!!!!!!!

 

fringe cases lmfao

 

turn the geofilter off and i can get lobbies with an intercontinental spread of players at my leisure.

 

 

on a sidenote, condrey has been reported as saying something along the lines of  AW uses a combination of dedi's and 'listen servers'

 

wtf is a listen server???? is it p2p or something else? or maybe just another load of old baloney?

Complete and total PR snow job.

 

I'm not saying he is flat out lying, per say, but similar to everybody else here, the MM in AW has been horrendous, or... Why would we have invested in the R1 in the first place?

 

The sad part?

 

Nothing is going to change in BO3. Same engine (tweaked), same horrible netcode, same horrible MM.

 

I'm glad I have the Netduma, but it probably won't be for CoD anymore...
