I personally prefer match making. It keeps things a little more balanced and prevents people from kicking you because you are good or are having a bad game.

The only big game with match making is the cod series. Other than that most are userhosted games.

All they have to do is disable the option to kick people in ranked matches. E.G. Gears of War.

Some of them. Yeah. Resistance 2, Socom is terrible, MGO too.

Killzone 2 is a server droplist and you pick the server. Much better than the others.

Mr_Ditters

God MGO and Resistance 2 use matchmaking? And I thought if I got a PS3 I might be safe from it.

At least Killzone 2 did it right.

Whats match-making? Sorry, I really am not sure what it is.

Zidaneski

Basically a way to get into an onine game.

For example in Serverlists you get to pick the match you want from a list and get the map you want etc.

With Matchmaking you tell the game to search and it will radomly put you into a game even if it's a map you don't want. Example: COD4

I freakin hate how all the popular games on the 360 are using matchmaking and am wondering is the PS3 also infested?

[QUOTE="protoking"]

[QUOTE="chaoscougar1"] its never a full party though right? basically what will happen is that with 4 you only get matched up against another 4. with 3, sometimes its 3vs3 or they bring in 2 randoms, 1 for each team, so even though ure versing a clan, the other people on your team are most likely in a party themselves

That means the pepole on my team decided it would be fun to party up with the suckiest friends they had lol.

*Sigh* even if what you say is true something about it still seems unfair.

I really don't think they should allow parties in RANKED matches, only in "Social" or "Player" matches depending on the game.

no parties in ranked matches? are u kidding? that is a terrible idea, whats the point of having friends (who are good at the game and whom you enjoy playing with)? just seems nonsensical to me

How does your rank really reflect your skill if you went prancing around with your General buddies to rank up easier?

Honestly you act like it's crazy but Epic had the same idea with Gears1, Player matches for friends and Ranked for competetive skill. Not "durr lets see how stacked me and my friends can make the teams."

[QUOTE="chaoscougar1"] hence my previous statement PARTIES OF 3 AND 4 GET MATCHED UP WITH OTHER PARTIES OF 3 AND 4, parties means that they were in the same lobby together, far out, its not rocket sciencechaoscougar1

Often times they do not, I often find myself versus a group of friends that all have the same icon or clan tags.

[QUOTE="protoking"][QUOTE="chaoscougar1"] if they dont know who eachother is why are they in a party together? that makes absolutely no sense...

chaoscougar1

He's saying a group of random people that got matched on the same team hardly stand a chance against another team of best friends who all know each other and have mics.

[QUOTE="phynixblack"][QUOTE="chaoscougar1"] u do realise that parties are 3 and 4 on halo are matched up with other parties of 3 and 4?chaoscougar1

Thats in Halo3, he may be addressing other games too as a more 'in general' statement based from experience. Also, I used to hate the Halo3's matchamking for being cruel to players. I want people at my skill level who are playing similar. If I lose several matches in a row, I would appreciate the game trying to match me with people who are also on losing streaks, this at least gives me the chance to break the streak with other people who are also still warming up and finding their groove. I hated how getting into my gameplay groove required about 50 deaths and 10-20 losses. Drove me insane every time that I had to go through the post-game nonsense because I couldn't be bothered to play all through the night to keep my groove up.

it requires 20 matches to get into your gameplay groove? you cant blame matchmaking for that, thats your own problem

I think it was simply an over exagration on his part.

well obviously they get matched up with equal teams, but random people parties, people who have no idea who each other are, versus people who might be bff's and have a uber proofed setup to win.....hardly sounds like a fair match....

if they dont know who eachother is why are they in a party together? that makes absolutely no sense...
