This should of been fixed long time since this lag issue was happening since the game came out, now Blackops 2 is here I don't think anyone is gonna pay any attention to MW3.

Well I live in Australian and have still managed to be merged with lobbies in Mexico or other nations that speak spanish so there claims that they have fixed matchmaking telemetry once again is BS.

Honestly a lot of lag is on the consumer part too though.

It's not like everybody that plays this game has super fast internet. I also can't imagine that Splitscreens don't hurt their connections as well.

What Activision should do is make connections more like MW2. That way if you lagged, it was on you instead of bringing down the entire lobby.

Everytime I hear a clan speaking French or anywhere outside the USA, I expect to face tons of lag...And Support use :carling:
