Default Matchmaking

Am I the only one who feels like it is horribly unbalanced? I am forever getting matched with people who are considerably higher than me, sometimes with several prestiges. I want to play people near my skill level, not a bunch of guys who have no life. When I am paired with a 10th prestige player, I know that something is messed up.

Hmm, I don't have this problem. Wehn I play there are of course some people that are really good, but I find the game really balanced.

Sometimes I just feel that I get paired with too many people above my level.

YEah ofcourse, rank has not much to say. I own a lot of 50s When I am 37 now.

Its a lot about luck, and being at the right place at the right time, and whoever shoot the gun first.

I love the multiplayer.

Well, I don't find that prestiges really matter - sure, it is unfair when it does, but still - prestige only determines how much time you have on your hands. I've beaten many high prestiges in clanmatches...just because they constantly play the game doesn't mean they're better.

They simple need a better way to judge skill level, and use that in matchmaking; it's hardly matchmaking, it's more like "we'll stick you in an open lobby and hope for the best"...making.

That's true. The ranking system is better in Halo 3 where you must actually be good to get skill levels.

Well there is ratings though.

Accuracy rating

Kills deaths rating

It will kinda tell you how good you are.
What rating do you guys have on those?...

The PS3 version of CoD 4 is still in baby-mode as far as online goes; I doubt many have hit the tenth prestige, so ya can't really judge it based on that yet for your system.

As far as accuracy goes, everyone's will suck soon enough - they all do on the 360.

Kill/death...mine is 1.03 atm, but it goes up and down.

OK that is one of the most stupid things you've ever said.

Totally biased comment.

The ps3's multiplayer is even better, because it doesn't lag like the 360.

And I am in 40 now...? I have only played it for 18 hours. (2 weeks) There are loads of people in 40+. And ranks doesn't matter that much (although the G36c and P90 are kinda Imba )

Also it takes maximum 15 seconds for me to start a new game online. And unlike Halcyon I have almost never had the problem with unfair battles.

Don't come and say stuff you know nothing about >.>

I don't mind it on either. I beat the game on PS3 and play on 360.

Just cause the PS3 was my Uncles.

Anyway I get ranked with high's all the time and it doesn't make a difference to me because I suck anyways.
