Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

Maybe someone else can make sense of this.

I've just had 2 FFA games and I went 30-0 in both of them, but the MOAB never appeared. I was using Assault streaks (UAV, Predator, Hind), but I got next to no kills with any of them and Elite is reporting my streak for those games as being 26 & 27, so if my streak above 25 why didn't I get it?

Either Elite or MW3 is lying to you.
 
It's both if the heat map is to be believed, one game showed my 25th gun kill to be the very last kill and the other game showed my gun streak to be 24, but the MW3 leaderboards recorded my highest as being 27 for this week, which I now know to be complete **** because I never got the MOAB for either game.

So yes the stat tracking is broken, both in game and as a result of that, Elite as well.
 
No worries, there was nothing doing really with matchmaking like that and the knock on effect on gameplay. It started to go really rotten from that game on Fallen with Yanks and a Columbian.

It got steadily worse.

It got to the point where we were just being completely dominated on a game of Bootleg. They were english players, but something had thrown the lag compesnation way off because we were so heavily compensated that players coming round corners to us could see us , aim and shoot before i could even pull the trigger to hip fire.

I presume the lag compensation must take an average of our pings, and somebody in the team must have had a high ping from the US or something which compensated us all to hell.
 
The strange thing is I have zero theatre from any of the games I played in the party last night and some of the players who were in the games aren't in recent players even though they're far from the end of the list.

Looks like there was at least an Irish and German player in that Bootleg game, but it felt a bit more than that.

The matchmaking patch should be coming next week, but it sounds like they've cocked up the Sitrep Pro vs Dead Silence counter on the PS3. You can hear your own footsteps when running both and the 360 version might well have the same flaw.

While the net code is no doubt not brilliant I never encounter half as many problems as you guys :p

it depends entirely on whose in the lobby with you. Its random.

When there was 5 of us in the party, the games were great. We had a 3 man team all of the same clan, all of 10 + prestige join and we thought "here we go" but despite being hard fought we won the match quite convincingly as the bullets registered.

We had a few more great games, but then we had 3 players and ended up in some dodgy lobbys and got over compensated.

What?! There was a Columbian also? Jesus the matchmaking in this game is pathetic.

I had a lobby with 2 mexicans or brazillians or some country like that once(might have been when I played with you). They were on zero bar connection and you couldn't kill them.
 
Rad, got a title update - 1.4 I think it was, played all of 4 minutes and quit out. Still insta deaths and put into games of 100ms. Back to Black Ops then.

I was hoping that this party matchmaking patch might do something to improve the game, but to be honest I doubt it will improve anything at all, except for maybe finding games faster as a full party.

All you have to do right now is go into FFA where there are no parties allowed at all and all the same **** that happens in the other game modes still happens, so they can't blame the problems on party matchmaking when it still feels like you're a full second behind everyone else and all you do is drop dead from their first bullet, even in FFA.

The only thing keeping me somewhat hopeful for the game is the new 1vs1/2vs2 mode.
