(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So. Just downloaded the new black ops maps. I thought since I've recently finished my exams I would have a late-night session of Call of Duty. Trying to 'queue' for a game of the new Zombies but theres a problem. EVERY single game I find has Spanish or French players screaming down their cheap mics, who know no english. I mean, I don't mind them but why can't I find english speaking players? This never used to be an issue up until I noticed it around 6 months ago(I think).
A friend of mine suggested that I may have low ping and a really good internet to be able to connect with players so far from me in the UK. I have to say - my internet is bad. I play cod competitively and cannot host any of our games. I give people 3 bars even when theres only 2 of us in a lobby!
I personally don't think this is very fair. Call of duty is meant to be a team game, but I cannot communicate with my 'team' due to a language barrier and bad 'across-seas' hosting. This doesnt seem to be much of a problem if I'm on at around 2:00pm as I merge with good hosts and British players. Though the later it gets, the worse merging gets too! Let me add; friends of mine who host parties with good internets still get the same problem as me!

Why can't PSN have made different servers for each languages or the most common ones? Afterall PSN does ask you what your language is on making your PSN. I know this sounds preposterous, but this would solve like' 70% of connection/lag problems and language barriers in the onling gaming world. Who wants to join a game at 5:00pm after getting home from a long day at school and merging with 10/12 spanish players - guranteed one of them is the host and giving you a miserable 1-2 bar. This only gets worse the later it gets. I have to admit foreign hosts do give me 3 bars at times, but a very 'poor' 3 bar and affects gameplay quite noticeably.

Does anyone know any solutions? Sorry if I posted this in the wrong section. This seemed to be the only suitable one I could find.
