How tight would it be if MW3 matchmaking was like Halo? For those not familiar, I mean, go in as a party, you get randomly matched up with players. one slight different is that instead, opponent choice isn't based off of rank, its based off of players who are with a certain region closest to you. Penalize players for backing out. I understand CoD is more laid back and almost less competitive even. Another thing, i know panic knifing is a huge back and forth issue with the community but it I'll explain my idea at the end. The last thing is to remove the " Join in session option". Now I am going to list a few reasons that back up why i think these are good ideas.
1.) If your opponents are within the same region as you, the host isn't going to have as much stress on his connection because it wont be trying to bridge across the entire U.S ( or UK)
2.) In any CoD compared to Halo, the only thing you have to fear when you rage quit is a bad W/L ratio, but if you don't care then you really aren't losing anything. What about if you back out of 5-8 games in an hour, you get a 15 minute ban?
3.) Most would agree that knifing was basically broken in WaW. So to fix panic knifing without breaking it, i feel like your auto aim should not come in to play when you're knifing. How many times have you gotten another player to flashing red and he turns and knifes you? Better yet, How many times have you ran through a door and a kid who plays default button layout does a complete 180 and isn't even looking at you, but still manages to knife you?
4.) If they took the Join Session In Progress option away it would almost do away with boosting 100%. It would also open up the possibilities of playlists like Doubles and maybe even a Specific gun only playlist. A lot of good ideas don't make it in to CoD because of boosting.
5.) These are simply my ideas and even though my TTG stats show i haven't been here for a while, i know what I am talking about. You may not agree with all of these things, but i am just basically looking for feedback to see how the community feels about these. So thanks for reading if you made it this far.
