Hey.

Is it just me or are there very little public Australian hosted games for COD4?

Since i finished the story and have been playing online i am lucky to join maybe 1 or 2 games a night where i have a decent latency, and then the matches only last a round or 2.

Is there just next to no online community for PS3 COD4 in Aus or is there a setting i can change where i can be moved to Aus servers more often?

Any feedbacks appreciated.
Cheers.

hi mate, welcome to myps3.com.au and enjoy your stay and it is true, there arent many australian hosts, and i always notice my signal strength in matches in cod4 can be below half, yellow or orange, which is pretty bad

You can also check out the Infinity Ward forums if you're looking for Perth players. Search for a topic titled "OZ Late night players" and you'll find a few Aussies listed in there , half of which are probaly from this site , as well as some fellow Perthies, such as myself (Schprocket), (It must be about time someone organised a PS3 LAN over on this side of the island...)

American's play 24/7 therefore not giving any other countries hope of finding local hosts. I find that I average around 15 minutes of continuous search until I hit an Australian server. Infinity Ward should of done a better job with multiplayer. Do they expect everyone to have high speed connections? On the other hand they could just fix the hit detection therefore we wouldn't have to worry what server we join. Anyways doesn't bother me as much anymore, I've gotten used to the torture of patience.

Hi , yep I'm hearing you all I have the same problem ...........I hope they patch it or update the lobby function so we can manipulate it to just search aussie games....
on that note how do you actually start a host game and have people join it ? Do you need a really fast connection , I have 1.5Mbps, I've tried to start one but it's just me running round like a Nigel no mates.....which isn't much fun ....looking for other players, is it worth joining a clan for this reason?

welcome FluX, I want to join a team or a clan, for the sole purpose of playing aussie, on aussie servers.
However i dont play ALOT lik some people do, and some clans hate it when members rarely play...!!! + im not much good at it, need the practise but cant get a game to load most of the time... maybe 2-3 games from 20-30 attempts, then usually the round ends as soon as i join, or the host leaves...!!!! if only it was as simple and as easy as RFOM's online play...... i think the U.S only developed THERE SIDE of online, NEEDS UPDATE BAD...

So by the sound of things Call Of Duty 4 needs a looby like Resistance Fall Of Man, and with Resistance it has what contry the game is, so that would be helpful.

In my opinion it need to be rigged like the Multiplayer for COD's are like on the PC.

All u do is adjust your search preferences then click refresh servers n hey presto you have a list of all the games that are running and thus u can choose the one you ping best with.

This way it may be able for clans and other bodies like gamearena or xgn (extreme gaming network) and ogn (oceanic gaming network) to open up a numerous amount of dedicated servers (open even when 0 people are in it) while allowing the clans to utilise their online forums thus providing free website hosting.

I'm a recent COD4 convert, have reached lv31 over the past 3 weeks online. Would like to hook up with Aussie COD4 players to help get better quality games as I get 1 orange bar when I join overseas matches. Tend to play from 8pm WST a few evenings a week (but not all the time). h2go (hospitaliser), I'll add you to my friends. Anyone else want in?

Yeaha I have the same problem and I agree with h2go idea of doing the servers like they are on the PC.

Hope the next update does something about it.
